Our Company

 

Aspyra, Inc., formerly known as Creative Computer Applications, Inc., is a healthcare information technology and service provider that specializes in Clinical Information Systems (“CIS”) and Diagnostic Information Systems (“DIS”) for

healthcare providers. As a result of its merger with StorCOMM, Inc., a private company, on November 22, 2005, Aspyra broadened its portfolio of products to include the Picture Archive Communication Systems (“PACS”) products that were developed and sold by StorCOMM. In connection with the merger, the Company changed its name to Aspyra, Inc. and StorCOMM’s name was changed to Aspyra Diagnostic Solutions, Inc. (“ADSI”).

 

Aspyra’s software and services for hospitals and clinic-based laboratories, orthopedic centers, and hospital imaging departments are highly scalable and can be used by a broad variety of healthcare providers. Clinical information is data that is gathered concerning each individual patient’s health condition, diagnosis, and treatment that are used by doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers. Such data may include laboratory test results, transcribed reports of radiological or imaging procedures, digital diagnostic images, and other clinical and diagnostic data. Aspyra’s products are deployed to provide automation of clinical information and digital diagnostic images that facilitate the operation of clinical departments and allows the rapid recording and processing of information that can be communicated, documented, and delivered to healthcare providers.

 

Currently, we market a product line that includes a Laboratory Information System (LIS) under the trade name CyberLAB ® , a general purpose PACS system under the trade name AccessNET™, a Radiology Information System (“RIS”) under the trade name CyberRAD ® , a RIS/PACS integrated system under the trade name AccessRAD™, a specialty PACS system under the trade name AccessMED™, an Anatomic Pathology System under the trade name of CyberPATH ® , a WebGateway™ portal for physician access to its CIS applications, and other related clinical and diagnostic application modules. In February 2008 we notified our customer base that we will discontinue support in February 2009 of our Pharmacy Information System previously marketed under the trade name CyberMED ® .

 

Our corporate offices are located at 26115-A Mureau Road, Calabasas, California 91302. Our telephone number is (818) 880-6700 and our website address is www.aspyra.com. Information contained on our website or any other website does not constitute part of this prospectus. Our business consists of three operational areas:(1) Clinical Information System and Diagnostic Information System products, (2) service of our customer’s installations, and (3) implementation services.We generate revenues from the licensing of application software, the sale of hardware, and the provision of implementation and long-term post implementation services.

This Offering

 

On March 26, 2008 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Jay Weil as collateral agent, and the purchasers named on the signature pages thereto (the “Purchasers”).

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold to the Purchasers, all of whom are accredited investors, $2,775,000 in principal amount of secured convertible notes (the “Purchaser Notes”) (including $600,000 in Purchaser Notes that was rolled over from bridge loans), and warrants to purchase 5,045,453 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Purchaser Warrants”). The Purchaser Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.55 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, and similar transactions. The Purchaser Notes mature on March 26, 2010 (“Maturity Date”) and bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum compounded on each July 15 and January 15.  Interest on the Purchaser Notes is payable on the Maturity Date or on such earlier date as the Purchaser Note is repaid or converted into common stock. The Purchaser Notes cannot be prepaid without the written consent of the holder. Each Purchaser received Purchaser Warrants equal to the total number of shares of common stock initially issuable upon conversion of the related Purchaser Note, which terminate on the third anniversary of the warrant issuance. The Purchaser Warrants have an exercise price of $0.55 per share subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, and similar transactions.

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we were required, within 120 days of the Closing Date, to obtain shareholder approval, at a meeting of our shareholders held upon requisite notice and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange, for (i) the issuance and/or potential issuance of all shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to the conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants equal to 19.99 percent or more of our common stock in connection with the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) amendment of our certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares of our common stock that we are authorized to issue to 40,000,000 shares (collectively, the “Shareholder Approval”). Failure to obtain the Shareholder Approval would have constituted an event of default under the Notes, which could have required the early repayment of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes, and increased the interest rate on the Notes to the default rate of 24% (or the maximum lawful rate). We obtained the Shareholder Approval at our annual shareholder meeting held on June 26, 2008.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we granted the Purchasers, for a period of one year from the Closing Date, a pre-emptive right on certain future equity issuances. If we breach this clause of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers may redeem their Notes for 125% of the purchase price paid.

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed not to issue, with certain exceptions, equity securities with a purchase price below the initial conversion price of the Notes.

 

Pursuant to a security agreement entered into in connection with the Purchase Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), the Purchaser Notes are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, subordinate only to the security interest held in the Company’s assets by Western Commercial Bank pursuant to the Company’s line of credit with the Western Commercial Bank.

 

We issued Great American Investors, Inc., the placement agent for the private placement, a note in the amount of $210,000 (the “Broker Note”, and together with the Purchaser Notes, the “Notes”)), and warrants to purchase 451,193 shares of our common stock (the “Broker Warrants”, and together with the Purchaser Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Broker Notes and Broker Warrants have the same terms as the Purchaser Notes and Purchaser Warrants.

 

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the Purchase Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement registering the shares of common stock underlying the Notes and the Warrants with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) within 60 days from the Closing Date and use commercially reasonable effects to have such registration statement declared effective within 90 days from the date on which we file the registration statement (120 days if the registration statement is reviewed by the SEC). In the event that the initial registration statement does not include all of the shares of common stock underlying the Notes and Warrants, the Company will file an additional registration statement registering the allowable balance pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

The issuance and sale of the Notes and Warrants was made in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. No form of general solicitation or general advertising was conducted in connection with the issuance. Each of the Notes and Warrants contain restrictive legends preventing the sale, transfer or other disposition of such Notes and Warrants, unless registered under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

 

The 1,851,945 shares of common stock included in this prospectus represent a portion of the aggregate 5,496,646 shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. This portion was calculated as approximately 33% of the Company’s aggregate common shares issued and outstanding less shares held by affiliates of the Company, the selling stockholders, and affiliates of the selling stockholders, which was 5,611,955 shares, as of March 26, 2008, the date of the closing of the private placement.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our shares involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all of the risks described in this prospectus. If any of the risks discussed in this prospectus actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. If this were to happen, the price of our shares could decline significantly and you may lose all or a part of your investment. The risk factors described below are not the only ones that may affect us. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not currently know about or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our forward-looking statements in this prospectus are subject to the following risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors below. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

We have incurred losses recently that may adversely impact liquidity.

 

We have experienced operating losses and cash outflows.For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, our net loss was $5,006,032.At December 31, 2007, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $803,392 and our working capital deficit was $4,007,912.We cannot be certain that Aspyra will become profitable, or if it does become profitable over any period of time, sustain profitability.If Aspyra does not become profitable and sustain profitability, the market price of our common stock will decline.The Company’s primary source of working capital has been generated from private placements and borrowings.The Company’s results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 produced negative operating cash flow of $1,618,035.Any decline in sales, delays in implementations where payments are tied to delivery and/or performance of services or cancellations of contracts could have a negative effect on cash flow from operations and could in turn increase our liquidity problem.If sales are not as expected, the Company will consider certain cost cutting measures.We may require additional cash resources to sustain our business.The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders.The incurrence of additional indebtedness would result in incurring debt service obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations.There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

Any failure to successfully introduce future products into the market could adversely affect our business.

 

The commercial success of future products depends upon their acceptance by the medical community.Our future product plans include capital-intensive clinical and diagnostic information systems.We believe that these products can significantly reduce labor costs, improve patient care and offer other distinctive benefits to the medical community.However, there is often market resistance to products that require significant capital expenditures or which eliminate jobs through automation. We can make no assurance that the market will accept our future products and systems, or those sales of our future products and systems will grow at the rates expected by our management.

 

If we fail to meet changing demands of technology, we may not continue to be able to compete successfully with competitors.

 

The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological advances, changes in customer requirements and frequent new product introductions and enhancements.Our future success depends upon our ability to introduce new products that keep pace with technological developments, enhance current product lines and respond to evolving client requirements.Aspyra has incurred, and we will need to continue to incur, significant research and development expenditures in future periods as we strive to remain competitive.Our failure to meet these demands could result in a loss of our market share and competitiveness and could harm our revenues and results of operations.

 

Our success depends on our ability to attract, retain and motivate management and other skilled employees.

 

Our future success and growth depend on the continued services of our key management and employees.The loss of the services of any of these individuals or any other key employee could materially affect our business. Our future success also depends on our ability to identify, attract and retain additional qualified personnel. Competition for employees in our industry is intense and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining them.There are a limited number of people with knowledge of, and experience in, our industry.We do not have employment agreements with most of our key employees.We do not maintain life insurance polices on our employees.Our loss of key personnel, especially without advance notice, or our inability to hire or retain qualified personnel, could have a material adverse effect on sales and our ability to maintain our technological edge.We cannot guarantee that we will continue to retain our key management and skilled personnel, or that we will be able to attract, assimilate and retain other highly qualified personnel in the future.

 

14



 

If we do not protect our proprietary information and prevent third parties from making unauthorized use of our products and technology, our financial results could be harmed.

 

We rely on a combination of confidentiality agreements and procedures and copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary information. However, all of these measures afford only limited protection and may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented by third parties. Third parties may copy aspects of our products or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary information without authorization. Third parties may also develop similar or superior technology independently, including by designing around our patents. Furthermore, the laws of some foreign countries do not offer the same level of protection of our proprietary rights as the laws of the United States, and we may be subject to unauthorized use of our products in those countries. Any legal action that we may bring to protect proprietary information could be expensive and may distract management from day-to-day operations. Unauthorized copying or use of our products or proprietary information could result in reduced sales of our products.

 

Third parties claiming that we infringe their proprietary rights could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and prevent us from selling our products.

 

From time to time, we have received claims that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others and may receive additional claims in the future.Any such claim, with or without merit, could:

 

·                  be time consuming to defend;

 

·                  result in costly litigation;

 

·                  divert management’s time and attention from our business;

 

·                  require us to stop selling, to delay shipping or to redesign our products; or

 

·                  require us to pay monetary amounts as damages to our customers.

 

In addition, we license and use software from third parties in our business. These third party software licenses may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms. Also, these third parties may from time to time receive claims that they have infringed the intellectual property rights of others, including patent and copyright infringement claims, which may affect our ability to continue licensing their software. Our inability to use any of this third party software could result in disruptions in our business, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results.

 

Aspyra operates in a consolidating industry which creates barriers to market penetration.

 

The healthcare information technology industry in recent years has been characterized by consolidation by both healthcare providers who are our customers and by those companies that we compete against. Large hospital chains and groups of affiliated hospitals prefer to negotiate comprehensive contracts for all of their system needs with larger vendors who offer broader product lines and services. The conveniences offered by these large vendors are administrative and financial incentives that we cannot offer our customers.

 

Our products may be subject to government regulation in the future that could impair our operations.

 

Our products could be subject to stringent government regulation in the United States and other countries in the future. Furthermore, we expect that the integration of our product and service offering will require us to comply with regulatory requirements and that we will devote significant time and resources to this effort.These regulatory processes can be lengthy, expensive and uncertain. Additionally, securing necessary clearances or approvals may require the submission of extensive data and other supporting information.

 

Failure to comply with applicable requirements could result in fines, recall, total or partial suspension of distribution, withdrawal of existing product or our inability to integrate our service and product offerings. If any of these things occur, it could have a material adverse impact on our business.

 

15



 

Changes in government regulation of the healthcare industry could adversely affect our business.

 

Federal and state legislative proposals are periodically introduced or proposed that would affect major changes in the healthcare system, nationally, at the state level or both. Future legislation, regulation or payment policies of Medicare, Medicaid, private health insurance plans, health maintenance organizations and other third-party payers could adversely affect the demand for our current or future products and our ability to sell our products on a profitable basis. Moreover, healthcare legislation is an area of extensive and dynamic change, and we cannot predict future legislative changes in the healthcare field or their impact on our industry or our business.

 

We are subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and the cost of complying with HIPAA may negatively impact our net income.

 

Our business is substantially impacted by the requirements of HIPAA and our products must maintain the confidentiality of a patient’s medical records and information. These requirements also apply to most of our customers.We believe our products meet the standards of HIPAA and may require our customers to upgrade their systems, but our customers’ preoccupation with HIPAA may adversely impact sales of our products, and the costs of compliance with HIPAA could have an impact on our product margins and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by us and could negatively impact our net income.

 

Defective products or product failure may subject us to liability and could substantially increase our costs.

 

Our products are used to gather information for professionals to make medical decisions, diagnosis, and treatment.Accordingly, the manufacture and sale of our products entails an inherent risk of product liability arising from an inaccurate, or allegedly inaccurate, test or procedure result.In the past, Aspyra has discovered errors and failures in certain of our product offerings after their introduction and have experienced delayed or lost revenues during the period required to correct these errors. Errors and failures in products released by us could result in negative publicity, product returns, loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products, loss of competitive position or claims by customers or others.Alleviating any of these problems could require significant expenditures of our capital and resources and could cause interruptions, delays or cessation of our sales, which could cause us to lose existing or potential customers and would adversely affect our operating results.We may be subject to product liability claims as a result of any failure or errors in our products.If a customer is successful in proving its damages, it could prove expensive and time-consuming to defend against these claims, and we could be liable for the damages suffered by our customers and other related expenses, which could adversely affect our operating results.We currently maintain product liability insurance coverage for up to $2 million per incident and up to an aggregate of $4 million per year.Although management believes this liability coverage is sufficient protection against future claims, there can be no assurance of the sufficiency of these policies.We have not received any indication that our insurance carrier will not renew our product liability insurance at or near current premiums; however, we cannot guarantee that this will continue to be the case.

 

System or network failures could reduce our sales, increase costs or result in a loss of customers.

 

We rely on our management information systems to operate our business and to track our operating results. Our management information systems will require modification and refinement as we grow and our business needs change. If we experience a significant system failure or if we are unable to modify our management information systems to respond to changes in our business needs, then our ability to properly run our business could be adversely affected and could lead to a reduction in our sales, increase costs and a loss of customers.

 

Our evaluation of internal controls and remediation of potential problems will be costly and time consuming and could expose weakness in our financial reporting.

 

While we believe that we currently have adequate internal control procedures in place, we are still exposed to potential risks from recent legislation requiring companies to evaluate controls under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We have evaluated our internal controls system to allow management to report on in the current year and determined our controls are effective.

 

Factors outside of our control may adversely affect our operations and operating results.

 

Our operations and operating results may be adversely affected by many different factors which are outside of our control, including:

 

16



 

·                  deterioration in economic conditions in any of the healthcare information technology industry, which could reduce customer demand and ability to pay for our products and services;

 

·                  political and military instability, which could slow spending within our target markets, delay sales cycles and otherwise adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and operate effectively;

 

·                  budgetary constraints of customers, which are influenced by corporate earnings and spending objectives;

 

·                  earthquakes, floods or other natural disasters affecting our headquarters located in Calabasas, California, an area known for seismic activity, or our other locations worldwide;

 

·                  acts of war or terrorism; and

 

·                  inadvertent errors.

 

Any of these factors could result in a loss of revenues and/or higher expenses, which could adversely affect our financial results.

 

Our international operations involve special risks that could increase our expenses, adversely affect our operating results and require increased time and attention of our management.

 

We expect to generate approximately 10% of our revenues from customers located outside of the United States in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.Our international operations are subject to risks in addition to those faced by our domestic operations, including:

 

·                  potential loss of proprietary information due to piracy, misappropriation or laws that may be less protective of our intellectual property rights;

 

·                  imposition of foreign laws and other governmental controls, including trade and employment restrictions;

 

·                  enactment of additional regulations or restrictions on imports and exports;

 

·                  fluctuations in currency exchange rates and economic instability such as higher interest rates and inflation, which could make our products more expensive in those countries;

 

·                  limitations on future growth or inability to maintain current levels of revenues from international sales if we do not invest sufficiently in our international operations;

 

·                  longer payment cycles for sales in foreign countries and difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;

 

·                  difficulties in staffing, managing and operating our international operations;

 

·                  difficulties in coordinating the activities of our geographically dispersed and culturally diverse operations; and

 

·                  political unrest, war or terrorism, particularly in areas in which we have facilities.

 

A portion of the Company’s transactions outside of the United States are denominated in foreign currencies. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar.Accordingly, our future operating results will continue to be subject to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. Hedging foreign currency transaction exposures is complex and subject to uncertainty. We may be negatively affected by fluctuations in foreign currency rates in the future, especially if international sales continue to grow as a percentage of our total sales.

 

Changes to financial accounting standards and new exchange rules could make it more expensive to issue stock options to employees, which would increase compensation costs and may cause us to change our business practices.

 

We prepare our financial statements to conform with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in the United States. These accounting principles are subject to interpretation by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board,

 

17



 

the SEC and various other bodies. A change in those policies could have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced.

 

For example, we have used stock options and other long-term equity incentives as a fundamental component of our employee compensation packages. We believe that stock options and other long-term equity incentives directly motivate our employees to maximize long-term shareholder value and, through the use of vesting, encourage employees to remain with our Company. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123R that requires us to record a charge to earnings for employee stock option grants. In addition, regulations implemented by the American Stock Exchange generally require shareholder approval for all stock option plans, which could make it more difficult or expensive for us to grant stock options to employees. We may, as a result of these changes, incur increased compensation costs, change our equity compensation strategy or find it difficult to attract, retain and motivate employees, each of which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Aspyra Diagnostic Solutions, Inc., currently relies on third party distribution arrangements to distribute its products.The loss of any of these relationships, or a material change in any of them, could materially harm our business.

 

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, our wholly owned subsidiary, Aspyra Diagnostic Solutions, Inc., received approximately 17% and 90% of its revenues, respectively, through third party distribution arrangements. We expect that we will continue to generate a significant portion of our revenues through a limited number of distribution arrangements for the foreseeable future. A significant portion of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable is with such third party distributors, which will result in a concentration of our credit risk. If any of these third party distributors decides not to market or distribute our products or decides to terminate or not renew its agreement with us, we may be unable to replace the affected agreements with acceptable alternatives, which could materially harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

Holders of our common stock are subject to the risk of additional and substantial dilution to their interests as a result of the issuances of common stock in connection with the Notes and Warrants.

 

Pursuant to the private placement that closed on March 26, 2008, we issued to the selling stockholders $2,985,000 in Notes, convertible into 5,427,273 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.55 per share, and Warrants to purchase 5,496,646 shares of our common stock.As a result, assuming the conversion of all Notes and exercise of all Warrants, up to 10,923,919 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued. Although there is no assurance that the selling stockholders will convert any of the Notes or exercise any of the Warrants, if such issuances were to occur, they would be highly dilutive of existing shareholders and may, under certain conditions affect a change of control of the Company.

Our stock price may be volatile in the future, and you could lose the value of your investment.

 

The market prices of the common stock for Aspyra have experienced significant fluctuations and our stock price may continue to fluctuate significantly, and you could lose the value of your investment. The market price of our common stock may be affected by a number of factors, including:

 

·                  announcements of quarterly operating results and revenue and earnings forecasts by us, our competitors or our customers;

 

·                  failure to achieve financial forecasts, either because expected sales do not occur or because they occur at lower prices or on terms that are less favorable to us;

 

·                  rumors, announcements or press articles regarding changes in our management, organization, operations or prior financial statements;

 

·                  changes in revenue and earnings estimates by securities analysts;

 

·                  announcements of planned acquisitions by us or by our competitors;

 

·                  announcements of new or planned products by us, our competitors or our customers;

 

·                  gain or loss of a significant customer;

 

·                  inquiries by the SEC, American Stock Exchange, law enforcement or other regulatory bodies; and

 

·                  acts of terrorism, the threat of war and economic slowdowns in general.

 

The stock market has experienced extreme price volatility, which has adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to our business or operating results.

 

Fluctuations in our quarterly financial results have affected the stock prices of Aspyra in the past and could affect our stock price in the future.

 

Our quarterly financial results have fluctuated in the past, and are likely to vary significantly in the future. A number of factors associated with the operation of our business may cause our quarterly financial results to fluctuate, including our ability to:

 

·                  effectively align sales resources to meet customer needs and address market opportunities;

 

·                  effectively respond to competitive pressures; and

 

·                  effectively manage our operating expense levels.

 

A number of factors associated with our industry and the markets for our products, many of which are outside our control, may cause our quarterly financial results to fluctuate, including:

 

·                  reduced demand for any of our products;

 

·                  timing and amount of orders by customers and seasonality in the buying patterns of customers;

 

·                  cancellation, deferral or limitation of orders by customers;

 

·                  fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and

 

·                  weakness or uncertainty in general economic or industry conditions.

 

Quarterly changes in our financial results could cause the trading price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly.If our quarterly financial results or our predictions of future financial results fail to meet the expectations of

securities analysts and investors, our stock price could be negatively affected. Any volatility in our quarterly financial results may make it more difficult for us to raise capital in the future or pursue acquisitions that involve issuances of our stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for our stock. You should not rely on the results of prior periods as predictors of our future performance.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The sale of common stock offered hereby is being registered for the account of the selling stockholders named in this prospectus. As a result, all proceeds from the sales of the common stock will go to the selling stockholders and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of the common stock by the selling stockholders. We received net proceeds of approximately $2,660,500 (after deduction of attorney fees, listing fees, and other miscellaneous expenses, and including proceeds of $600,000 in bridge loans that were rolled over into the private placement). We are using the proceeds for working capital. We will incur all costs associated with this registration statement and prospectus, which are currently estimated to be approximately $36,730. If the warrants issued pursuant to the private placement are completely exercised for cash, we would receive a maximum of $3,023,156 as a result of such exercises. Notwithstanding, there is no assurance that any of the warrants will be exercised. However, the selling stockholders are entitled to exercise the warrants on a cashless basis if the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price. In the event that the selling stockholders exercise the warrants on a cashless basis, we will not receive any proceeds. If we receive any proceeds from the exercise of the warrants, these proceeds will be used for general working capital purposes.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholders, or their pledgees, donees, transferees, or any of their successors in interest selling shares received from a named selling stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale-related transfer after the date of this prospectus (all of whom may be selling stockholders) may sell the common stock offered by this prospectus from time to time on any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the common stock is listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, at fixed prices that may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at prices otherwise negotiated. The selling stockholders may sell the common stock by one or more of the following methods, without limitation:

 

·                  Block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                  An exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of any stock exchange on which the common stock is listed;

 

·                  Ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases;

 

·                  Privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                  In connection with short sales of company shares;

 

·                  Through the distribution of common stock by any selling stockholder to its partners, members or stockholders;

 

·                  By pledge to secure debts of other obligations;

 

·                  In connection with the writing of non-traded and exchange-traded call options, in hedge transactions and in settlement of other transactions in standardized or over-the-counter options;

 

·                  Purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; or

 

24



 

·                  In a combination of any of the above.

 

These transactions may include crosses, which are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade. The selling stockholders may also transfer the common stock by gift. We do not know of any arrangements by the selling stockholders for the sale of any of the common stock.

 

The selling stockholders may engage brokers and dealers, and any brokers or dealers may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in effecting sales of the common stock. These brokers or dealers may act as principals, or as an agent of a selling stockholder. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of the stocks at a stipulated price per share. If the broker-dealer is unable to sell common stock acting as agent for a selling stockholder, it may purchase as principal any unsold shares at the stipulated price. Broker-dealers who acquire common stock as principals may thereafter resell the shares from time to time in transactions in any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the common stock is then listed, at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. Broker-dealers may use block transactions and sales to and through broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. The selling stockholders may also sell the common stock in accordance with Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act, rather than pursuant to this prospectus. In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the shares of common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.

 

From time to time, one or more of the selling stockholders may pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them. The pledgees, secured parties or person to whom the shares have been hypothecated will, upon foreclosure in the event of default, be deemed to be selling stockholders. The number of a selling stockholder’s shares offered under this prospectus will decrease as and when it takes such actions. The plan of distribution for that selling stockholder’s shares will otherwise remain unchanged. In addition, a selling stockholder may, from time to time, sell the shares short, and, in those instances, this prospectus may be delivered in connection with the short sales and the shares offered under this prospectus may be used to cover short sales.

 

To the extent required under the Securities Act, the aggregate amount of selling stockholders’ shares being offered and the terms of the offering, the names of any agents, brokers, dealers or underwriters, any applicable commission and other material facts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, as appropriate. Any underwriters, dealers, brokers or agents participating in the distribution of the common stock may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts, concessions, commissions or fees from a selling stockholder and/or purchasers of selling stockholders’ shares, for whom they may act (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be less than or in excess of customary commissions). Neither we nor any selling stockholder can presently estimate the amount of any such compensation.

 

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts, concessions, commissions or fees received by them and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. If a selling stockholder is deemed to be an underwriter, the selling stockholder may be subject to certain statutory liabilities including, but not limited to Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act. Selling stockholders who are deemed underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The SEC staff is of a view that selling stockholders who are registered broker-dealers or affiliates of registered broker-dealers may be underwriters under the Securities Act. We will not pay any compensation or give any discounts or commissions to any underwriter in connection with the securities being offered by this prospectus.

 

A selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers and the broker-dealers may engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with that selling stockholder, including, without limitation, in connection with distributions of the common stock by those broker-dealers. A selling stockholder may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer those common stock. A selling stockholder may also loan or pledge the common stock offered hereby to a broker-dealer and the broker-dealer may sell the common stock offered by this prospectus so loaned or upon a default may sell or otherwise transfer the pledged common stock offered by this prospectus.

 

25



 

The selling stockholders and other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the common stock will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including Regulation M. This regulation may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the common stock by the selling stockholders and any other person. The anti-manipulation rules under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of common stock in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular common stock being distributed for a period of up to five business days before the distribution. These restrictions may affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers and agents who may be deemed to be underwriters, if any, of the common stock offered by this prospectus, against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify us against specified liabilities.

 

We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the registration of the common in connection with this offering.

 

We cannot assure you that the selling stockholders will sell all or any portion of the common stock offered by this prospectus. In addition, we cannot assure you that a selling stockholder will not transfer the shares of our common stock by other means not described in this prospectus.
