ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

 

This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf process, we may, from time to time, sell any combination of the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings up to a total amount of $8 million. Although we are registering securities in the total amount of $8 million, under the rules of the SEC, the amount of securities we may sell is limited to an amount not exceeding one-third of the aggregate market value of our voting and non-voting common equity owned by non-affiliates (“float”) in the twelve months immediately prior to, and including, any particular sale. This limitation is not applicable if our float exceeds $75 million.

  

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms the securities sold in that offering. The prospectus supplement may also add to, update or change information contained in the prospectus and, accordingly, to the extent inconsistent, information in this prospectus is superseded by the information in the prospectus supplement.

 

The prospectus supplement to be attached to the front of this prospectus may describe, as applicable: the terms of the securities offered; the initial public offering price; the price paid for the securities; net proceeds; and the other specific terms related to the offering of the securities.

 

You should only rely on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus relating to a particular offering. No person has been authorized to give any information or make any representations in connection with this offering other than those contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus in connection with the offering described herein and therein, and, if given or made, such information or representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by us. Neither this prospectus nor any prospectus supplement nor any related free writing prospectus shall constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy offered securities in any jurisdiction in which it is unlawful for such person to make such an offering or solicitation. This prospectus does not contain all of the information included in the registration statement. For a more complete understanding of the offering of the securities, you should refer to the registration statement, including its exhibits.

 

You should read the entire prospectus and any prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, as well as the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus or any prospectus supplement or any related free writing prospectus, before making an investment decision. Neither the delivery of this prospectus or any prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectus nor any sale made hereunder shall under any circumstances imply that the information contained or incorporated by reference herein or in any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus is correct as of any date subsequent to the date hereof or of such prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, as applicable. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any document incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the applicable documents, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of securities. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date and we have no obligation to update such information except as required by law.

 

 

ABOUT ENSERVCO CORPORATION

 

Enservco Corporation (“Enservco”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”, “we” or “us”) provides various services to the domestic onshore oil and natural gas industry. These services include frac water heating (completion services) and hot oiling and acidizing (production services). The Company owns and operates a fleet of approximately 390 specialized trucks, trailers, frac tanks and other well-site related equipment and serves customers in several major domestic oil and gas fields including the DJ Basin/Niobrara area in Colorado, the Bakken area in North Dakota, the Marcellus and Utica Shale area in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas.

 

Enservco was originally incorporated as Aspen Exploration Corporation under Delaware law on February 28, 1980 as a small exploration and production oil and gas company. In 2009, Aspen disposed of its oil and natural gas producing assets and as a result was no longer engaged in active business operations. On December 30, 2010, Aspen changed its name to “Enservco Corporation.”

 

Corporate Information

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 14133 County Road 9 ½, Longmont, Colorado 80504. Our telephone number is (303) 333-3678. You can find more information about us at our website located at www.enservco.com. The information contained on our website is not a part of, and should not be construed as being incorporated by reference into, this prospectus.

 

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors and all of the other information included in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus, including those factors included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our Current Reports on Form 8-K, in evaluating an investment in our securities.

 

If any of these risks were to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. When we offer and sell any securities pursuant to a prospectus supplement, we may include additional risk factors relevant to such securities in the prospectus supplement.

 

In addition, we are continuing to seek to regain compliance with certain New York Stock Exchange American LLC (“NYSE American”) listing requirements. In November, 2019 we received notifications from the NYSE American that we were not in compliance with the minimum stock price continued listing standards and we were not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity standards. Shortly thereafter, we provided the NYSE with a plan of compliance that contemplates a combination of the debt and additional equity capital proposed to be sought by us in order to achieve the stockholders’ equity requirement, and we have received the necessary stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split of our common stock at an exchange ratio of not less than 1-for-10 (1:10) and not greater than 1-for-25 (1:25), in seeking to meet the minimum stock price standard.

 

We have updated our compliance plans with the NYSE American on an ongoing basis, and our common stock continues to be listed while we seek to regain compliance with the stockholders’ equity and stock price requirements. It is not certain how long it will take for us to meet the foregoing requirements and the NYSE American could determine to delist our common stock in the meantime.

 

If our common stock is delisted, we would be forced to list our common stock on the OTC Markets or some other quotation medium, depending on our ability to meet their specific requirements. In that case, we may lose the interest and support of some or all of our institutional investors and further, selling our common stock on the OTC Markets would be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold. These factors could also result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for shares of our common stock. Finally, because of additional regulatory burdens imposed upon broker-dealers with respect to lower price over the counter companies, delisting could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our stock, further limiting the liquidity of our shares. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the trading price, liquidity, value and marketability of our common stock.

 

 

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain information contained in this prospectus may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this prospectus are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “project,” “intends,” “plans,” “pursue,” “target,” “continue,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “predicts,” or “potential,” the negative of such terms or variations thereon, or other comparable terminology. Statements that describe our future plans, strategies, intentions, expectations, objectives, goals or prospects are also forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Readers should consider carefully the risks described under or incorporated by reference in the “Risk Factors” section contained herein and other sections of this prospectus which describe factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following factors:

 

 

our lender under our existing Loan and Security Agreement (the “2017 Credit Agreement”) has declared us to be in violation of certain covenants under the 2017 Credit Agreement and therefore in default, and has reserved all its rights and remedies under that agreement including the right to accelerate and declare our loans due (presently $32 million) and payable and to foreclose on substantially all of our property and assets;

 

 

our inability to achieve the compromise or restructuring of our 2017 Credit Agreement as described in this prospectus;

 

 

substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern;

 

 

our ability to regain compliance with New York Stock Exchange American listing requirements or face delisting from that exchange;

 

 

adverse developments in the global economy and pandemic risks related to the COVID-19 virus and the resulting diminished demand for oil and natural gas;

 

 

recent significant decreases in the prices for crude oil and natural gas which has resulted in exploration and production companies cutting back their capital expenditures for oil and gas well drilling which in turn resulted in significantly reduced demand for our drilling completion services, thereby negatively affecting our revenues, results of operations and financial condition;

 

 

fierce competition for the services we provide in our areas of operations, which has increased significantly due to the recent decrease in prices for oil and natural gas;

 

 

our capital requirements and uncertainty of obtaining additional funding on terms acceptable to us;

 

 

the impact of general economic conditions on the demand for oil and natural gas and the availability of capital which may impact our ability to perform services for our customers;

 

 

the geographical diversity of our operations which, while it could diversify the risks related to a slow-down in one area of operations, also adds significantly to our costs of doing business;

 

 

our history of losses and working capital deficits which were significant;

 

 

weather and environmental conditions, including abnormal warm winters in our areas of operations that adversely impact demand for our services;

 

 

 

our ability to retain key members of our management and key technical employees;

 

 

the impact of environmental, health and safety and other governmental regulations, and of current or pending legislation with which we and our customers must comply;

 

 

risks relating to any unforeseen liabilities;

 

 

federal and state initiatives relating to the regulation of hydraulic fracturing; and

 

 

sales or issuances of our common stock and the price and volume volatility of our common stock.

 

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in this section and elsewhere in this document. Other than as required under applicable securities laws, we do not assume a duty to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events or circumstances, changes in expectations or otherwise. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus or, if earlier, as of the date they were made. 

 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

Except as may be stated in an applicable prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds we receive from any sales of securities by us under this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things:

 

 

reduction or refinancing of debt or other corporate obligations;

 

additions to our working capital;

 

capital expenditures associated with our oil and natural gas projects; and

 

potential future acquisitions of complementary businesses or corporate entities.

 

Any specific allocation of the net proceeds of an offering of securities to a specific purpose will be determined at the time of the offering and will be described in a prospectus supplement.

 

 

Description of Capital Stock

 

General

 

The following description summarizes certain important terms of our capital stock. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description of the matters set forth in this section entitled “Description of Capital Stock,” you should refer to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and our amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”), and to the applicable provisions of Delaware law. Our authorized capital stock consists of 110,000,000 shares of capital stock, $0.005 par value per share, of which:

 

 

100,000,000 shares are designated as common stock; and

 

 

10,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock.

 

As of August 7, 2020, there were 55,005,663 shares of common stock issued, of which 54,902,063 were outstanding and 103,600 shares were held as treasury stock. As of August 7, 2020, no shares of preferred stock were outstanding. Our Board of Directors is authorized, without stockholder approval except as required by the listing standards of the NYSE American, to issue additional shares of capital stock.

 

Common Stock

 

Dividend Rights

 

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our Board of Directors, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our Board of Directors may determine.

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of directors in the Certificate of Incorporation. Each successor elected to replace a director whose term of office expires at an annual meeting will serve for a term of one year ending on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her respective successor has been duly elected and qualified. The directors are subject to election by a majority of the votes cast at each annual meeting of stockholders. In the event that the number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast.

 

No Preemptive or Similar Rights

 

Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.

 

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

 

If we become subject to a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of common stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, subject to prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights of and the payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

Fully Paid and Non-Assessable

 

All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable and the shares offered hereby will be, upon issuance, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

 

Preferred Stock

 

Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, we are currently authorized to designate and issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.005 par value per share. Our Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations or restrictions, in each case without further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors can also increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of preferred stock, but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us and might adversely affect the market price of common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. We have no current plan to issue any shares of preferred stock. We have no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

  

Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

The provisions of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, which are summarized below, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our Board of Directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

 

Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws 

 

The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our Board of Directors or management team, including the following:

 

Board of Directors Vacancies. The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws authorize only our Board of Directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. In addition, the number of directors constituting our Board of Directors will be permitted to be set only as provided in, or in the manner provided by the Bylaws. The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the number of directors will be no fewer than three and no more than nine, as determined by resolution of our Board of Directors from time to time. These provisions would prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of our Board of Directors and then gaining control of our Board of Directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This will make it more difficult to change the composition of our Board of Directors and will promote continuity of management.

 

Special Meeting of Stockholders. The Certificate of Incorporation provides that special meetings of our stockholders may be called by our Board of Directors, our President or by our President or upon request to do so by holders of at least 10% of our outstanding shares entitled to vote at the meeting. Shareholders requesting such action must also provide all of the information that would be required to be included in a proxy statement under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act.

 

Advance Notice Requirements for Director Nominations. The Bylaws provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. The Bylaws also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice of such nominations. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company.

 

 

No Cumulative Voting. The Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), provides that stockholders are not entitled to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. The Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting.

 

Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation Provisions. Any amendment of the above provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation requires approval by holders of at least a majority of the voting power of our then outstanding capital stock except for Article VII governing director liability and indemnification which requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of our outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon.

 

Issuance of Undesignated Preferred Stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by our Board of Directors. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock would enable our Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or other means.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare, Inc., 350 Indiana Street, Suite 800, Golden, Colorado 80401. Its telephone number is (303) 262-0600.

 

Limitations of Liability and Indemnification

 

The Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors are not to be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following:

 

 

any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

 

 

any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

 

 

unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or

 

 

any transaction from which they derived an improper personal benefit.

 

Any amendment to, or repeal of, these provisions will not eliminate or reduce the effect of these provisions in respect of any act, omission or claim that occurred or arose prior to that amendment or repeal. If the DGCL is amended to provide for further limitations on the personal liability of directors of corporations, then the personal liability of our directors will be further limited to the greatest extent permitted by the DGCL.

 

The Bylaws provide that we will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was one of our directors or officers or is or was serving at our request as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The Bylaws provide that we may indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was one of our employees or agents or is or was serving at its request as an employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The Bylaws also provide that we must advance expenses incurred by or on behalf of a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, subject to limited exceptions.

 

 

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions included in the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and in indemnification agreements that we have entered into or will enter into with our directors and executive officers may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and executive officers for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and executive officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and executive officers as required by these indemnification provisions. At present, we are not aware of any pending litigation or proceeding involving any person who is or was one of our directors, officers, employees or other agents or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, for which indemnification is sought, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

 

We have obtained or will obtain insurance policies under which, subject to the limitations of the policies, coverage is provided to our directors and executive officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of fiduciary duty or other wrongful acts as a director or executive officer, including claims relating to public securities matters, and to us with respect to payments that may be made by us to these directors and executive officers pursuant to its indemnification obligations or otherwise as a matter of law.

 

Certain of our non-employee directors may, through their relationships with their employers, be insured and/or indemnified against certain liabilities incurred in their capacity as members of our Board of Directors.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

 

Listing

 

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “ENSV.” See “Risk Factors” in this prospectus for disclosure regarding our non-compliance with the listing requirements of the NYSE American.

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

 

We may issue warrants that entitle the holder to purchase common stock, preferred stock, or other securities. Warrants may be issued independently or together with common stock, preferred stock, or other securities offered by any prospectus supplement and may be attached to or separate from any such offered securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent, all as will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of warrants. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of warrants or beneficial owners of warrants.

 

The following summary of certain provisions of the warrants does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all provisions of the warrant agreements.

 

Reference is made to the prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of warrants offered pursuant to such prospectus supplement for the terms of and information relating to such warrants, including, where applicable:

 

 

the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase common stock and the price at which such number of shares of common stock may be purchased upon such exercise;

 

 

the number of shares and series of preferred stock purchasable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase preferred stock and the price at which such number of shares of such series of preferred stock may be purchased upon such exercise;

 

 

the number of other securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrants to purchase such other securities and the price at which such securities may be purchased upon exercise;

 

 

the date on which the right to exercise such warrants shall commence and the date on which such right shall expire;

 

 

United States federal income tax consequences applicable to such warrants;

 

 

the amount of warrants outstanding as of the most recent practicable date; and

 

 

any other terms of such warrants.

 

Warrants will be offered and exercisable for United States dollars only. Warrants will be issued in registered form only. The exercise price for warrants will be subject to adjustment in accordance with the applicable prospectus supplement.

 

Each warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase such number of shares of common stock, preferred stock or other securities at such exercise price as shall in each case be set forth in, or calculable from, the prospectus supplement relating to the warrants, which exercise price may be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in such prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, or such later date to which such expiration date may be extended by us, unexercised warrants will become void. The place or places where, and the manner in which, warrants may be exercised shall be specified in the prospectus supplement relating to such warrants.

 

Prior to the exercise of any warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or other securities, holders of such warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of such common stock, preferred stock or other securities, as the case may be, purchasable upon such exercise, including the right to receive payments of dividends, if any, on the common stock or preferred stock purchasable upon such exercise.

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS

 

We may issue rights to purchase our common stock or preferred stock. These rights may be offered independently or together with any other security offered hereby and may or may not be transferable by the stockholder receiving the rights in such offering. In connection with any offering of rights, we may enter into a standby arrangement with one or more underwriters or other purchasers pursuant to which the underwriters or other purchasers may be required to purchase any securities remaining unsubscribed for after such offering.

 

The prospectus supplement relating to any rights we offer, if any, will, to the extent applicable, include specific terms relating to the offering, including some or all of the following:

 

 

the price, if any, for the rights;

 

 

the exercise price payable for our common stock or preferred stock upon the exercise of the rights;

 

 

the number of rights to be issued to each stockholder;

 

 

the number and terms of our common stock or preferred stock which may be purchased per each right;

 

 

the extent to which the rights are transferable;

 

 

any other terms of the rights, including the terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of the rights;

 

 

the date on which the right to exercise the rights shall commence, and the date on which the rights shall expire;

 

 

the extent to which the rights may include an over-subscription privilege with respect to unsubscribed securities or an over-allotment privilege to the extent the securities are fully subscribed; and

 

 

if applicable, the material terms of any standby underwriting or purchase arrangement which may be entered into by the Company in connection with the offering of rights.

 

The description in the applicable prospectus supplement of any rights we offer will not necessarily be complete and will be qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable rights certificate, which will be filed with the SEC if we offer rights. We urge you to read the applicable rights certificate and any applicable prospectus supplement in their entirety.

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

 

We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other classes of securities described in this prospectus in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The units may be issued under unit agreements to be entered into between us and a unit agent, as detailed in the prospectus supplement relating to the units being offered. The prospectus supplement will describe:

 

 

the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances the securities comprising the units may be held or transferred separately;

 

 

a description of the terms of any unit agreement governing the units;

 

 

a description of the provisions for the payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units;

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We may sell the offered securities in and outside the United States (1) through underwriters or dealers, (2) directly to purchasers, including our affiliates and stockholders, (3) through agents or (4) through a combination of any of these methods. The prospectus supplement will include the following information:

 

 

the terms of the offering;

 

 

the names of any underwriters or agents;

 

 

the name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters;

 

 

the purchase price of the securities;

 

 

the estimated net proceeds to us from the sale of the securities;

 

 

any delayed delivery arrangements;

 

 

any underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters' compensation;

 

 

any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

 

 

any commissions paid to agents.

 

Sale Through Underwriters or Dealers

 

If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account for resale to the public, either on a firm commitment basis or a best efforts basis. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement and except as described below, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers.

 

During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include overallotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, which means that selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the offered securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if the offered securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time.

 

If dealers are used, we will sell the securities to them as principals. The dealers may then resell that securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. The dealers participating in any sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. We will include in the prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.

 

At-the-Market Offerings

 

Underwriters or agents could makes sales in privately negotiated transactions and/or any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which includes sales made directly on or through the NYSE American, the existing trading market for our common stock, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange.

 

 

To the extent that we make sales through one or more underwriters or agents in “at-the-market” offerings, we will do so pursuant to the terms of a sales agency financing agreement or other “at-the-market” offering arrangement with such underwriters or agents. If we engage in at-the-market sales pursuant to any such agreement, we will issue and sell securities through one or more underwriters or agents, which may act on an agency basis or on a principal basis. During the term of any such agreement, we may sell securities on a daily basis in exchange transactions or otherwise as we agree with the underwriters or agents. The agreement will provide that any securities sold will be sold at prices related to the then prevailing market prices for such securities. Therefore, exact figures regarding proceeds that will be raised or commissions to be paid cannot be determined at this time. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we also may agree to sell, and the relevant underwriters or agents may agree to solicit offers to purchase, blocks of securities. The terms of each such agreement will be set forth in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus. In the event that any underwriter or agent acts as principal, or any broker-dealer acts as underwriter, it may engage in certain transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of the securities. Any such activities will be described in the prospectus supplement or any related free writing prospectus relating to the transaction.

 

Direct Sales and Sales Through Agents

 

We may sell the securities directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We may also sell the securities through agents we designate from time to time. In the prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities, and we will describe any commissions payable by us to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

 

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. We will describe the terms of any such sales in the prospectus supplement.

 

Equity Line of Credit

 

We may also sell securities from time to time pursuant to an equity line of credit. In such event, we will enter into a common stock purchase agreement with the purchaser to be named therein who may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, the terms of which will be described in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC. In that Form 8-K, we will describe the total amount of securities that we may require the purchaser to purchase under the purchase agreement and the other terms of purchase, and any rights that the purchaser is granted to purchase securities from us. In addition to our issuance of shares of common stock to the equity line purchaser pursuant to the purchase agreement, this prospectus (and the applicable prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment) also covers the resale of those shares from time to time by the equity line purchaser to the public. The purchaser’s resales may be effected through a number of methods, including without limitation, ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers and block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction.  

 

Remarketing Arrangements

 

Offered securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more remarketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreements, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, in connection with the securities remarketed.

 

Delayed Delivery Contracts

 

If we so indicate in the prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

 

 

General Information

 

We may have agreements with the agents, dealers, underwriters and remarketing firms to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute with respect to payments that the agents, dealers, underwriters or remarketing firms may be required to make. Agents, dealers, underwriters and remarketing firms may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses.
