PROSPECTUS

NOVO INTEGRATED SCIENCES, INC.

2,388,050 Shares

Common Stock

This prospectus covers the sale of an aggregate of 2,388,050 shares (the “shares”) of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “common stock”), by the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus (collectively with any of the holder’s transferees, pledgees, donees or successors, the “selling stockholders”). The shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “warrants”) purchased by the selling stockholders in a private placement transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated April 9, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”). We are registering the resale of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus as required by the Purchase Agreement.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares, however, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants if the warrants are exercised for cash. We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes. We are paying the cost of registering the shares covered by this prospectus as well as various related expenses. The selling stockholders are responsible for all selling commissions, transfer taxes and other costs related to the offer and sale of the shares.

Sales of the shares by the selling stockholders may occur at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may sell shares to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders, the purchasers of the shares, or both. If required, the number of shares to be sold, the public offering price of those shares, the names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents and any applicable commission or discount will be included in a supplement to this prospectus, called a prospectus supplement. Because all of the shares offered under this prospectus are being offered by the selling stockholders, we cannot currently determine the price or prices at which the shares may be sold under this prospectus.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NVOS”. On June 7, 2021 the last reported sale price per share of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $2.36. You are urged to obtain current market quotations for our common stock.

Our principal executive offices are located at 11120 NE 2nd Street, Suite 100, Bellevue, WA 98004.

Investing in our securities involves risks. You should carefully consider the Risk Factors beginning on page 16 of this prospectus before you make an investment in our securities.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Any statements contained herein, other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding the progress and timing of our product development programs; our future opportunities; our business strategy, future operations, anticipated financial position, future revenues and projected costs; our management’s prospects, plans and objectives; and any other statements about our management’s future expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects constitute forward-looking statements. Examples of such statements are those that include words such as “may,” “assume(s),” “forecast(s),” “position(s),” “predict(s),” “strategy,” “will,” “expect(s),” “estimate(s),” “anticipate(s),” “believe(s),” “project(s),” “intend(s),” “plan(s),” “budget(s),” “potential,” “continue” and variations thereof. However, the words cited as examples in the preceding sentence are not intended to be exhaustive and any statements contained in this prospectus regarding matters that are not historical facts may also constitute forward-looking statements.

Because these statements implicate risks and uncertainties, as well as certain assumptions, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, those risks identified under “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and from time to time in our other filings with the SEC. The information in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement speaks only as of the date of that document and the information incorporated herein by reference speaks only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to our products and services and our future economic performance. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions as well as future business decisions, including any acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments and any other business development transactions we may enter into in the future. The amounts of time and money required to successfully complete development and commercialization of our products and services as well as any evolution of or shift in our business plans, or to execute any future strategic options are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and may involve factors that are beyond our control. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, we cannot assure you that the results contemplated in any of the forward-looking statements contained herein will be realized.

Based on the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements described herein, the inclusion of any such statement should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will be achieved. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

THE OFFERING

We are registering for resale by the selling stockholders named herein the 2,388,050 shares as described below:

THE COMPANY

Business Overview

Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on November 27, 2000, under the name Turbine Truck Engines, Inc. On February 20, 2008, the Company was re-domiciled to the State of Nevada. Effective July 12, 2017, the Company’s name was changed to Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. When used herein, the terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company owns Canadian and U.S. subsidiaries which deliver, or intend to deliver, multidisciplinary primary health care related services and products through the integration of medical technology, advanced therapeutics and rehabilitative science. Currently, the Company’s revenue is generated solely through its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Novo Healthnet Limited (“NHL”), which provides our services and products through both clinic and eldercare related operations.

Our clinicians and practitioners provide certain multidisciplinary primary health care services, and related products, beyond the medical doctor first level contact identified as primary care. Our clinicians and practitioners are not licensed medical doctors, physicians, specialist, nurses or nurse practitioners. Our clinicians and practitioners are not authorized to practice primary care medicine and they are not medically licensed to prescribe pharmaceutical based product solutions.

NHL’s team of multidisciplinary primary health care clinicians and practitioners provide assessment, diagnosis, treatment, pain management, rehabilitation, education and primary prevention for a wide array of orthopedic, musculoskeletal, sports injury, and neurological conditions across various demographics including pediatric, adult, and geriatric populations through NHL’s 16 corporate-owned clinics, a contracted network of affiliate clinics, and eldercare related long-term care homes, retirement homes, and community-based locations in Canada.

Additionally, we continue to expand our patient care philosophy of maintaining an on-going continuous connection with our patient community, beyond the traditional confines of brick and mortar facilities, by extending oversight of patient diagnosis, care and monitoring, directly through various Medical Technology Platforms either in-use or under development.

Our specialized multidisciplinary primary health care services include physiotherapy, chiropractic care, manual/manipulative therapy, occupational therapy, eldercare, massage therapy (including pre- and post-partum), acupuncture and functional dry needling, chiropody, stroke and traumatic brain injury/neurological rehabilitation, kinesiology, vestibular therapy, concussion management and baseline testing, trauma sensitive yoga and meditation for concussion-acquired brain injury and occupational stress-PTSD, women’s pelvic health programs, sports medicine therapy, assistive devices, dietitian, holistic nutrition, fall prevention education, sports team conditioning programs including event and game coverage, and private personal training.

The occupational therapists, physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, chiropodists and kinesiologists contracted, by NHL, to provide occupational therapy, physical therapy and fall prevention assessment services are registered with the College of Occupational Therapists of Ontario, the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario, College of Chiropractors of Ontario, College of Massage Therapists of Ontario, College of Chiropodists of Ontario, and the College of Kinesiologists of Ontario regulatory authorities.

Our strict adherence to public regulatory standards, as well as self-imposed standards of excellence and regulation, have allowed us to navigate with ease through the industry’s licensing and regulatory framework. Compliant treatment, data and administrative protocols are managed through a team of highly trained, certified health care and administrative professionals. We and our affiliates provide service to the Canadian property and casualty insurance industry, resulting in a regulated framework governed by the Financial Services Commission of Ontario.

Eldercare

The Company’s eldercare related operations provide physiotherapy (“PT”), occupational therapy (“OT”), assessment and application assistance for assistive devices, fall prevention programs, community-based strengthening and general flexibility exercise classes, rehabilitative strategies and continuing education to eldercare clients, including caregivers and family members as applicable, in various long-term care homes, retirement homes and community-based locations across the province of Ontario, Canada.

As a result of NHL’s September 2013 asset acquisition of Peak Health LTC Inc, an Ontario corporation formed in 2006, NHL has a 14-year history of providing certain multidisciplinary related healthcare services and products to the eldercare community. In 2017, based on the philosophical overlap and synchronicity between PT and OT, NHL launched its occupational therapy sector of services for our eldercare clients. NHL’s eldercare focused OT and PT services and product are in direct competition with the top providers in this sector. We offer one of the most extensive rosters of OT and PT clinicians certified by the Ministry of Health for assistive device assessment under the Assistive Device Program which, when the individual meets the criteria, allows our eldercare clients access to significant funding subsidies to purchase varying mobility aids (such as walkers, wheelchairs, seating, and power wheelchairs/scooters).

Additionally, our proprietary Electronic Rehabilitation Record and Management Reporting software solution provides us the ability to deliver each eldercare facility with a wide-array of detailed PT and OT reports that include, among other things: (i) client specific treatment details, (ii) identifying cost and optimization possibilities, (iii) outlining a wide variety of client outcome measurements, (iv) analyzing overall contract effectiveness, and (v) producing indicators which assist the NHL team to target opportunities for improved team efficiency. This software comes with an ability to provide a graphically illustrated ‘report card’ for contribution to annual, interdisciplinary care conferences with staff and family members, as well as fall reporting capacities, which are central to many homes’ fall prevention committee meetings. Additionally, data generated by the software allows members from both the NHL team and the eldercare facility team to identify residents who fall frequently and allow for the inter-disciplinary team to put strategies in place to better reduce a resident’s “fall-risk”.

NHL has created and delivers, through online virtual technology, a variety of eldercare related educational in-service programs which include topics such as nursing restorative education, back education and other eldercare-relevant topics such as osteoporosis, fall prevention, wheelchair positioning, and least restraints. NHL has designed its virtual online education in-service programs and modules to be presented in a variety of formats to facilitate the different capacity and styles of learning common to senior-aged individuals.

Our eldercare PT services are provided as follows:

Our eldercare OT services are provided, through two separate sectors, as follows:

Recent Developments

Coronavirus (COVID-19)

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. While initially the outbreak was largely concentrated in China and caused significant disruptions to its economy, it has now spread to several other countries and infections have been reported globally.

On March 17, 2020, as a result of COVID-19 infections having been reported throughout both Canada and the United States, certain national, provincial, state and local governmental issued proclamations and/or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of COVID-19. Accordingly, on March 17, 2020, the Company closed all corporate clinics for all in-clinic non-essential services to protect the health and safety of its employees, partners and patients. On March 20, 2020, the Company announced the precautionary measures taken as well as announcing the business impact related to the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating under COVID-19 related governmental proclamations and directives, between March 17, 2020 and June 1, 2020, the Company provided in-clinic multi-disciplinary primary healthcare services and products solely to patients with emergency and essential need while also providing certain virtual based services related to physiotherapy. In light of most eldercare related services being deemed essential by national, provincial and local governmental authorities in Canada, NHL’s contracted eldercare related services have been nominally impacted during the fiscal year 2021 first and second quarters and we project the same for the fiscal year 2021 third and fourth quarters.

On May 26, 2020, the Ontario Ministry of Health announced updated guidance and directives stating that physiotherapists, chiropractors and other regulated health professionals, including all services and products provided by the Company, can gradually and carefully begin providing all services, including non-essential services, once the clinician and provider are satisfied all necessary precautions and protocols are in place to protect the patients, the clinician and the clinic staff. With all corporate clinics closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the exception of providing certain limited essential and emergency services, the Company had furloughed 48 full-time employees and 35 part-time employees from its pre-closure levels of 81 full-time employees and 53 part-time employees.

On June 2, 2020, the Company commenced opening its corporate clinics and providing non-essential services. As of June 9, 2020, the Company had opened all corporate clinics while following all mandated guidelines and protocols from Health Canada, the Ontario Ministry of Health, and the respective disciplines’ regulatory Colleges to ensure a safe treatment environment for our staff and clients. Certain of these guidelines and protocols include both active and passive screening for staff and clients, enhanced cleaning measures using only Health Canada approved disinfectants and sanitizers, personal protective equipment usage, appropriate signage and markers throughout the clinics, and layout changes to the clinics to reflect proper physical distancing measures. Additional, more restrictive proclamations and/or directives may be issued in the future.

With our clinic facilities re-opened and operating under COVID-19 pandemic related mandated guidelines and protocols, for the month ended February 28, 2021, NHL’s clinic-based patient flow has met and exceeds 82% for the same period ended February 2020. In addition, for the month ended February 28, 2021, NHL’s eldercare contract services provided has met and exceeds 93% of the same period ended February 2020. As of February 28, 2021, the Company has 78 full-time employees and 59 part-time employees.

Assuming no additional “lockdowns” or new material directives are implemented limiting the Company’s ability to provide both its clinic and eldercare community related services, for fiscal year 2021 the Company projects a steady month-over-month increase as (i) recommended guidelines for patient-clinician on-site interaction are eased, and (ii) more overall movement restrictions are reduced and people are more comfortable in public spaces.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations remains unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or the Company, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption, reduced patient traffic and reduced operations. The full long-term financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but is anticipated to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The measures taken to date will impact the Company’s fiscal year 2021 business and potentially beyond. Management expects that all of its business segments, across all of its geographies, will be impacted to some degree, but the significance of the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s business and the duration for which it may have an impact cannot be determined at this time.

Return of Acquisition Deposit

On June 12, 2020, the Company terminated an acquisition letter of intent (“LOI”), resulting in the return, on June 26, 2020, of a CAD$350,000 (approximately $255,570 on June 26, 2020) deposit to the Company.

LA Fitness U.S. License Agreement & Guaranty

On September 24, 2019, Novomerica Health Group Inc. (“Novomerica”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Master Facility License Agreement with Fitness International, LLC and Fitness & Sports Clubs, LLC (together with Fitness International, LLC, “LA Fitness U.S.”). The Master Facility License Agreement was amended on February 4, 2020, pursuant to the terms of that certain First Amendment to Master Facility License Agreement between Novomerica and Fitness International, LLC (“U.S. License Agreement”).

Pursuant to the terms of the U.S. License Agreement, the parties agreed that from time to time as set forth in the U.S. License Agreement or as the parties otherwise agree, Novomerica may wish to identify sublicensees to provide certain services in facilities operated by LA Fitness U.S., and LA Fitness U.S. may desire to grant to such sublicenses the right to do the same. Upon execution of applicable documentation as may be required by the U.S. License Agreement, the sublicensee (which may be Novomerica, if Novomerica desires to provide Services (as hereinafter defined) itself) shall have the right, subject to the terms of the U.S. License Agreement, to (i) occupy and use, on an exclusive basis, for the purposes of providing outpatient physical and/or occupational therapy as provided in the U.S. License Agreement (the “Services”), with the applicable LA Fitness U.S. facility, and (ii) access and use, on a non-exclusive basis, for the purpose of providing the Services, the applicable facility’s equipment and a pool lane, and (iii) use, on a non-exclusive basis, the applicable facility’s common areas solely as necessary to access the facility’s service area, equipment and a pool lane.

Pursuant to the terms of the U.S. License Agreement, five separate initial licenses in Ohio were granted. Novomerica agreed to develop and open for business (a) at least two of such facilities by June 30, 2020, (b) at least two additional facilities by September 30, 2020, and (c) the final remaining facility by December 31, 2020 (“U.S. Development Schedule”). Pursuant to the terms of the U.S. License Agreement, in the event that Novomerica fails to meet the U.S. Development Schedule, the initial licenses that Novomerica has developed and opened for business will remain unaffected; however, Novomerica will lose the right to develop the remaining licenses.

With respect to each license granted under the U.S. License Agreement, for the period beginning as of the commencement date of each such license and continuing until the expiration or earlier termination of such license, Novomerica shall pay to LA Fitness U.S. a monthly payment in an agreed upon amount.

Unless sooner terminated as provided in the U.S. License Agreement, the term of the U.S. License Agreement shall expire simultaneously with the expiration of earlier termination of the License Term (as such term is defined in the U.S. License Agreement) of the last remaining license granted under the U.S. License Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the U.S. License Agreement, the Company agreed to execute that certain Guaranty Agreement (the “U.S. Guaranty”) dated September 24, 2019 by and between the Company and LA Fitness U.S. Pursuant to the terms of the U.S. Guaranty, the Company irrevocably guaranteed the full, unconditional and prompt payment and performance of all of Novomerica’s obligations and liabilities under the U.S. License Agreement.

In March 2020, as a result of guidelines issued by local, state, and federal authorities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, LA Fitness U.S. closed all facilities nationwide. Currently, under both government and internal corporate directives, LA Fitness U.S. is cautiously opening certain facilities to limited access and services. As a result, all contractual terms and conditions of our U.S. License Agreement are on hold, with all parties indicating the intention to amend the U.S. License Agreement and its timelines once “normal” activity resumes in the LA Fitness U.S. facilities. Re-engagement of the contract terms may vary from state to state; however, our model plan to partner and sub-license with existing local clinic ownership to launch and operate each LA Fitness U.S. based micro-clinic remains intact.

Due to the ever-changing conditions surrounding the re-opening of LA Fitness U.S. facilities, we are unable to verify our schedule to commence opening our micro-clinics, but we are tentatively planning on a target of early 2021. Furthermore, in our discussions with LA Fitness U.S., all parties agree that the pandemic has created renewed awareness of health wellness as a lifestyle rather than as a treatment. LA Fitness U.S. continues to indicate the desire to continue our contractual agreements upon LA Fitness U.S. re-opening facilities post-pandemic. We believe that the addition of our micro-clinics to LA Fitness U.S. facilities further enhances the benefits available to the facilities’ membership by providing direct access to certain multidimensional primary healthcare services.

LA Fitness Canada License Agreement & Guaranty

On September 24, 2019, NHL entered into a Master Facility License Agreement with LAF Canada Company (“LA Fitness Canada”). The Master Facility License Agreement was amended on February 4, 2020, pursuant to the terms of that certain First Amendment to Master Facility License Agreement between NHL and LA Fitness Canada (“Canada License Agreement”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Canada License Agreement, the parties agreed that from time to time as set forth in the Canada License Agreement or as the parties otherwise agree, NHL may wish to identify sublicensees to provide certain services in facilities operated by LA Fitness Canada, and LA Fitness Canada may desire to grant to such sublicensees the right to do the same. Upon execution of applicable documentation as may be required by the Canada License Agreement, the sublicensee (which may be NHL, if NHL desires to provide Services (as hereinafter defined) itself) shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Canada License Agreement, to (i) occupy and use, on an exclusive basis, for the purposes of providing the Services, with the applicable LA Fitness Canada facility, and (ii) access and use, on a non-exclusive basis, for the purpose of providing the Services, the applicable facility’s equipment and a pool lane, and (iii) use, on a non-exclusive basis, the applicable facility’s common areas solely as necessary to access the facility’s service area, equipment and a pool lane.

Pursuant to the terms of the Canada License Agreement, 17 separate initial licenses in Ontario, Canada and Alberta, Canada were granted. NHL agreed to develop and open for business (a) at least four of such facilities by March 31, 2020, (b) at least six additional facilities by June 30, 2020, (c) at least six additional facilities by September 30, 2020, and (d) the final remaining facility by December 31, 2020 (the “Canada Development Schedule”). Pursuant to the terms of the Canada License Agreement, in the event that NHL fails to meet the Canada Development Schedule, the initial licenses that NHL has developed and opened for business will remain unaffected; however, NHL will lose the right to develop the remaining licenses.

As defined in the Canada License Agreement, NHL has provided the initial four deposits due by March 31, 2020. In addition, NHL has engaged clinicians to sublicense the roll-out and operation of micro-clinics as defined in the Canada License Agreement clinics in LAF.

With respect to each license granted under the Canada License Agreement, for the period beginning as of the commencement date of each such license and continuing until the expiration or earlier termination of such license, NHL shall pay to LA Fitness Canada a monthly payment in an agreed upon amount.

Unless sooner terminated as provided in the Canada License Agreement, the term of the Canada License Agreement shall expire simultaneously with the expiration of earlier termination of the License Term (as such term is defined in the Canada License Agreement) of the last remaining license granted under the Canada License Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Canada License Agreement, the Company agreed to execute that certain Guaranty Agreement (the “Canada Guaranty”) dated September 24, 2019 by and between the Company and LA Fitness Canada. Pursuant to the terms of the Canada Guaranty, the Company irrevocably guaranteed the full, unconditional, and prompt payment and performance of all of NHL’s obligations and liabilities under the Canada License Agreement.

In March 2020, as a result of guidelines issued by local, provincial, and federal authorities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, LA Fitness Canada closed all facilities nationwide. Currently, under both government and internal corporate directives, LA Fitness Canada is cautiously opening certain facilities to limited access and services. As a result, all contractual terms and conditions of our Canada License Agreement are on hold with all parties indicating the intention to amend the Canada License Agreement and its timelines once “normal” activity resumes in the LA Fitness Canada facilities. Re-engagement of the contract terms may vary from state to state; however, our model plan to partner and sub-license with existing local clinic ownership to launch and operate each LA Fitness Canada based micro-clinic remains intact.

Due to the ever-changing conditions surrounding the re-opening of LA Fitness Canada facilities, we are unable to verify our schedule to commence opening our micro-clinics, but we are tentatively planning on a target of late summer 2021. Furthermore, in our discussions with LA Fitness Canada, all parties agree that the pandemic has created renewed awareness of health wellness as a lifestyle rather than as a treatment. LA Fitness Canada continues to indicate the desire to continue our contractual agreements upon the re-opening of LA Fitness Canada facilities post-pandemic. We believe that the addition of our micro-clinics to LA Fitness Canada facilities further enhances the benefits available to the facilities’ membership by providing direct access to certain multidimensional primary healthcare services.

We-Fix-U Physiotherapy and Foot Health Inc. Non-Binding Letter of Intent

On January 8, 2021, the Company and NHL entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“We-Fix-U LOI”) with We-Fix-U Physiotherapy and Foot Health Inc. (“We-Fix-U”). Pursuant to the terms of the We-Fix-U LOI, the parties agreed to proceed reasonably and in good faith toward the negotiation and execution of a share exchange or similar definitive agreement regarding the acquisition of We-Fix-U by the Company. The parties expect that the definitive agreement will provide for the acquisition of We-Fix-U in exchange for CAD$3,200,000 (approximately $2,547,000) or a valuation prescribed at a break-even level as a result of the COVID-19 economic environment, in the Company’s restricted common stock, NHL exchangeable preferred shares, or other equity structure depending on tax considerations. The Company’s common stock to be issued will be based on a per share price of $5.00. In the alternative and at the sole discretion of the We-Fix-U shareholders, the parties may enter into a structure whereby the We-Fix-U shareholders will be issued NHL preferred exchangeable shares that may be used for the sole purpose of exchange for the Company’s common stock.

The issued shares are expected to be subject to a two-year lockup coinciding with any applicable clawback policies or procedures adopted by the Company and outlined in the definitive agreement entered into by the Company and We-Fix-U. In the event the clawback is waived prior to the two-year clawback term, the lockup will be removed and normal restrictions under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act will apply. The We-Fix-U LOI also provides that David Evans, We-Fix-U’s CEO, will enter into an employment agreement for a period of no less than two years from the closing of the We-Fix-U transaction.

Completion of the We-Fix-U transaction is subject to standard due diligence, negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, receipt of necessary board and shareholder approvals, regulatory approvals, and third party consents. The We-Fix-U LOI contains standard representations, warranties, covenants, and conditions as well as mutual confidentiality and exclusivity provisions.

Pursuant to the terms of the We-Fix-U LOI, if a definitive agreement was not executed by the parties to the We-Fix-U LOI on or before April 1, 2021, the terms of the We-Fix-U LOI would terminate, with the exception of certain specified provisions. On March 29, 2021, the Company and We-Fix-U amended the We-Fix-U LOI to extend the termination date of the We-Fix-U LOI to June 1, 2021.

Formation of Medical Advisory Board

On April 22, 2021, we announced the formation of a Medical Advisory Board. The initial members of the Medical Advisory Board are Dr. Joseph M. Chalil, Dr. Michael G. Muhonen, and Dr. Zach P.

Formation of Compensation Committee

On May 5, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors formed a Compensation Committee and named each of Alex Flesias, Robert Oliva and Michael Gaynor to serve as members thereof. Mr. Oliva will serve as Chair of the Compensation Committee.

Upon initially listing with the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), the Company qualified as a “controlled company” because more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors was held indirectly by Robert Mattacchione, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Subsequent to the Company’s registered direct offering that closed on April 13, 2021, the Company ceased to be a controlled company as Mr. Mattacchione no longer owned 50% or more of the Company’s voting power. The Nasdaq rules provide, among other things, that a company that has ceased to be a controlled company is permitted to phase-in its independent nominating and compensation committees as follows: (1) one member must satisfy the independence requirement at the time the company ceases to be a controlled company; (2) a majority of members must satisfy the independence requirement within 90 days of the company ceasing to be a controlled company; and (3) all members must satisfy the independence requirement within one year of the company ceasing to be a controlled company. Messrs. Flesias and Oliva qualify as independent directors. Mr. Gaynor is not an independent director. In order to comply with Nasdaq rules, the Company expects to replace Mr. Gaynor as a member of the Compensation Committee with an independent director within one year of the Company ceasing to be a controlled company.

Formation of Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Also on May 5, 2021, the Board of Directors formed a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and named each of Alex Flesias, Robert Oliva and Christopher David to serve as members thereof. Mr. Flesias will serve as Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Messrs. Flesias and Oliva qualify as independent directors. Mr. David is not an independent director. In order to comply with Nasdaq rules, the Company expects to replace Mr. David as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with an independent director within one year of the Company ceasing to be a controlled company.

Pro-Dip, LLC Share Exchange Agreement

On May 11, 2021, the Company entered into that certain Share Exchange Agreement (the “Pro-Dip SEA”), dated as of May 11, 2021, with Pro-Dip, LLC (“Pro-Dip”), Peter St. Lawrence (“PL”) and George St. Lawrence (“GL”). Each of PL and GL owns 50% of Pro-Dip’s outstanding units.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pro-Dip SEA, the Company agreed to purchase, and PL and GL agreed to sell to the Company, 100% of the Pro-Dip units held by PL and GL (including Pouch Works LLC, Pro-Dip’s subsidiary) in exchange for $755,385, to be paid via the delivery by the Company of 189,796 restricted shares of Company common stock (“Pro-Dip Share Exchange), such that upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the SEC, the Company would have 100% ownership of Pro-Dip. The Pro-Dip SEA includes customary representations and warranties and closing conditions.

On May 24, 2021, pursuant to the closing of the Pro-Dip SEA, we acquired Pro-Dip, and Pro-Dip thereafter became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Acenzia Share Exchange Agreement

On May 28, 2021, the Company and NHL entered into that certain Share Exchange Agreement (the “Acenzia SEA”), dated as of May 28, 2021, with Acenzia Inc. (“Acenzia”), Avec8 Holdings Inc. (“Avec8”), Ambour Holdings Inc. (“Ambour”), Indrajit Sinha, Grant Bourdeau and Derrick Bourdeau (collectively, referred to as “Acenzia Shareholders”).

The Acenzia Shareholders collectively hold 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Acenzia as follows:

Pursuant to the terms of the SEA, NHL agreed to purchase from the Acenzia Shareholders, and the Acenzia Shareholders agreed to sell to NHL, the Acenzia Purchased Shares on the closing date, in exchange for payment by NHL of the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) of $25,000,000, less Acenzia’s long-term debt evidenced on the closing balance sheet, and subject to the Working Capital Adjustment (as hereinafter defined) and the working capital allowance advanced (the “Adjusted Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price will be paid by the issuance by NHL to the Acenzia Shareholders of certain non-voting NHL preferred shares exchangeable into restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (the “NHL Exchangeable Shares”). The number of NHL Exchangeable Shares to be issued will be calculated at a per share price of $3.91. As of May 28, 2021, the parties to the SEA estimate that the Adjusted Purchase Price will be $14,884,039, resulting in the anticipated issuance of 100 NHL Exchangeable Shares exchangeable into an aggregate of 3,806,660 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The actual Adjusted Purchase Price and number of shares of Company common stock to be issued upon exchange of the NHL Exchangeable Shares will be determined following the closing, based on the Post-Closing Adjustment (as hereinafter defined).

Pursuant to the terms of the SEA, the Company will create an allowance for working capital in the amount of CAD $2,000,000 (approximately $1,654,800 as of May 28, 2021) for purposes of sustaining organic growth. The advance of any working capital amount is subject to the Company’s board approval. Any amount advanced will be structured as a commercially reasonable loan and will reduce the Purchase Price by the amount advanced, with such reduction resulting in surrender by Acenzia Shareholders of that number of NHL Exchangeable Shares equal to the advance divided by $3.91.

On or prior to the closing date, Acenzia will prepare and deliver to NHL a closing balance sheet, including working capital (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated in the SEA) (the “Working Capital Estimate”) as at May 27, 2021 (the “Calculation Time”). If the Working Capital Estimate at the Calculation Time is greater than $0, then the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the Working Capital Estimate. If the Working Capital Estimate at the Calculation Time is less than $0, then the Purchase Price will be reduced by the amount of the working capital deficiency (the “Working Capital Adjustment”).

Within 90 days after the closing date, NHL will prepare and deliver to the Acenzia Shareholders, with the assistance of and information provided by the Acenzia Shareholders, a statement setting forth its calculations of closing working capital as of the Calculation Time (the “Closing Working Capital”), which statement will contain an unaudited balance sheet of Acenzia as of the closing date (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated in the SEA) (the “Final Closing Balance Sheet”). If the Closing Working Capital on the Final Closing Balance Sheet is less than the Working Capital Estimate, the Acenzia Shareholders will surrender that number of NHL Exchangeable Shares equal to the differential divided by $3.91. If the Closing Working Capital on the Final Closing Balance Sheet is greater than the Working Capital Estimate, NHL will issue to the Acenzia Shareholders that number of additional NHL Exchangeable Shares and reserve for issuance that additional number of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the differential divided by $3.91 (in either case, the “Post-Closing Adjustment”).

Pursuant to the terms of the SEA, the Company agreed that (i) Messrs. Sinha and G. Bourdeau would be appointed to the Company’s board of directors, and (ii) for each meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which directors are being elected until the date that is two years from the closing date, it would nominate Messrs. Sinha and G. Bourdeau as directors.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the securities involves substantial risks. Before purchasing any of the securities, you should carefully consider and evaluate the risk factors below and all of the information included and incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus or the applicable prospectus supplement, including the risk factors incorporated by reference herein from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020, as updated by annual, quarterly and other reports and documents we file with the SEC after the date of this prospectus and that are incorporated by reference herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement. The risks and uncertainties that we have described are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect us. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely impact our business, cash flows, condition (financial or otherwise), liquidity, prospects and/or results of operations. Please also refer to the section above entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and the section below entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Our common stock may be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market if we cannot maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There are a number of continued listing requirements that we must satisfy in order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

We cannot assure you our securities will meet the continued listing requirements to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. If Nasdaq delists our common stock from trading on its exchange, we could face significant material adverse consequences including:

If we fail to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market and Nasdaq determines to delist our common stock, the delisting could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock, our ability to obtain financing to repay debt and fund our operations.

If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq and the price of our common stock remains below $5.00 per share, our common stock would come within the definition of “penny stock”.

Transactions in securities that are traded in the United States that are not traded on Nasdaq or on other securities exchange by companies, with net tangible assets of $5,000,000 or less and a market price per share of less than $5.00, may be subject to the “penny stock” rules. The market price of our common stock is currently less than $5.00 per share. If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq and the price of our common stock remains below $5.00 per share and our net tangible assets remain $5,000,000 or less, our common stock would come within the definition of “penny stock”.

Under these penny stock rules, broker-dealers that recommend such securities to persons other than institutional accredited investors:

As a result of these requirements, if our common stock is at such time subject to the “penny stock” rules, broker-dealers may find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in these shares in the United States may be significantly limited. Accordingly, the market price of the shares may be depressed, and investors may find it more difficult to sell the shares.

Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and may fluctuate significantly.

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Although an active trading market has developed for our common stock, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will be sustained. Failure to maintain an active trading market for our common stock may adversely affect our shareholders’ ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or at all. Our common stock has experienced, and may experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We are registering these shares for resale by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by this prospectus. However, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants if the warrants are exercised for cash. We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be affected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions. The selling stockholders may use one or more of the following methods when disposing of the shares or interests therein:

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or Section 4(a)(1) under the Securities Act, rather than under this prospectus, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of those provisions.

If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under a supplement or amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it is not a registered broker-dealer and does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the common stock. If the Company is notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledge intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock , the Company will file a supplement to this prospectus if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.

The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The maximum commission or discount to be received by any member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) or independent broker-dealer will not be greater than eight percent of the initial gross proceeds from the sale of any security being sold. 

The Company has advised the selling stockholders that they are required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during such time as they may be engaged in a distribution of the shares. The foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock.

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or otherwise.

The Company has agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (a) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement, or (b) the date on which the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus may be sold or transferred by non-affiliates without any volume limitations or pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

We have prepared this prospectus to allow the selling stockholders to offer for resale, from time to time, up to 2,388,050 shares of our common stock issuable to the selling stockholders upon exercise of certain warrants currently held by the respective selling stockholders.

On April 9, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors (the “Purchase Agreement”) whereby, among other things, it issued and sold warrants (the “warrants”) exercisable for an aggregate of up to 2,388,050 shares of common stock (the “shares”) and an exercise price of $3.35 per share. The warrants will expire on the five and a half-year anniversary of the date of issuance.

The warrants and the shares of common stock issuable thereunder were sold and issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not involving a public offering and Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act as sales to accredited investors.

The selling stockholders listed in the table below may from time to time offer and sell any or all shares of our common stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus. When we refer to “selling stockholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, permitted transferees, assignees, successors and others who later come to hold any of the selling stockholders’ interests in shares of our common stock other than through a public sale.

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the name of the selling stockholders for whom we are registering shares for resale to the public, and the number of such shares that each such selling stockholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus. Applicable percentages are based on 26,489,357 shares of common stock outstanding on June 7, 2021.

We cannot advise as to whether the selling stockholders will in fact sell any or all of such shares. In addition, the selling stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which they provided the information set forth on the table below.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK

The following description of our common stock is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation”) and our Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. We encourage you to read our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, our Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) for additional information.

As of June 8, 2021, we are authorized to issue up to 499,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share. As of June 8, 2021, there were 26,489,357 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held by 526holders of record. The authorized and unissued shares of common stock are available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless such action is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on which our common stock may be listed. Unless approval of our stockholders is so required, our board of directors will not seek stockholder approval for the issuance and sale of either our common stock.

Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of the Company’s common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders.

Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that our Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s common stock has no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the Company’s common stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Various Provisions of Nevada Law and our Articles of Incorporation

Provisions of the NRS and our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws could make it more difficult to acquire us by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise, or to remove incumbent officers and directors. These provisions, summarized below, would be expected to discourage certain types of coercive takeover practices and takeover bids our board of directors may consider inadequate and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us will outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging takeover or acquisition proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Effects of authorized but unissued common stock and blank check preferred stock. One of the effects of the existence of authorized but unissued common stock and undesignated preferred stock may be to enable our board of directors to make more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the board of directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, such shares could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting bloc in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.

In addition, our certificate of incorporation grants our board of directors broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance also may adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of those holders and may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our company.

Prohibition on Cumulative Voting. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors.

Removal of Directors. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that any director may be removed from office only by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote.

Vacancies on the Board. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, or any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal, or other causes, shall be filled solely by the quorum of the Board.

Bylaws. Our Bylaws authorize the board of directors to amend the bylaws by a majority vote of the Board.

Calling of Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provides that a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the President or the Secretary of the Company by resolution of the Board of Directors or at the request in writing of stockholders owning a majority in amount of the entire capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote.

Authorized but Unissued Shares. Our authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available for future issuance without shareholder approval. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Interested Stockholder Statute. We are subject to Nevada’s Combination with Interested Stockholders Statute (Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Sections 78.411 through 78.444) which prohibits an “interested stockholder” from entering into a “combination” with us, unless certain conditions are met. An “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, beneficially owns (or within the prior two years, did beneficially own) 10% or more of our capital stock entitled to vote. We have, however, elected in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to not be governed by the provisions of NRS Sections 78.411 through 78.444.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors. NRS limits or eliminates the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties as directors. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation include provisions that require us to indemnify, to the fullest extent allowable under the NRS, our directors or officers against monetary damages for actions taken as a director or officer of our company, or for serving at our request as a director or officer or another position at another corporation or enterprise, as the case may be. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation also provide that we must indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to our directors and officers, subject to our receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as may be required under the NRS. We are also expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ insurance to protect our company, our directors, officers and certain employees for some liabilities.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions under the NRS and in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. However, these provisions do not limit or eliminate our rights, or those of any stockholder, to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s fiduciary duties. Moreover, the provisions do not alter the liability of directors under the federal securities laws.

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY AND DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Our directors and officers are indemnified by our bylaws against amounts actually and necessarily incurred by them in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they are a party by reason of being or having been directors or officers of the company. Our articles of incorporation provide that none of our directors or officers shall be personally liable for damages for breach of any fiduciary duty as a director or officer involving any act or omission of any such director or officer. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to such directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by such director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, lawsuit or proceeding, is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The following are the estimated expenses of the distribution of the shares registered hereunder on Form S-3. None of the expenses listed below are to be borne by any of the Selling Stockholder named in the prospectus that forms a part of this registration statement.

The amounts set forth above, except for the SEC Registration Fee, are estimated.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide for the indemnification of our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada and may, if and to the extent authorized by our board of directors, so indemnify our officers and any other person whom we have the power to indemnify against liability, reasonable expense or other matter. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditure by us, which we may be unable to recoup.

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide that none of our directors or officers shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer provided, however, that the foregoing provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law, or the unlawful payment of dividends. Limitations on liability provided for in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, do not restrict the availability of non-monetary remedies and do not affect a director’s responsibility under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

We believe that these provisions will assist us in attracting and retaining qualified individuals to serve as executive officers and directors. The inclusion of these provisions in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, may have the effect of reducing a likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and may discourage or deter shareholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their duty of care, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited us or our shareholders.

Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Exchange Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of the articles of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

At the present time, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of ours in which indemnification would be required or permitted. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.

Item 16. Exhibits.

The following is a list of all exhibits filed as a part of this registration statement on Form S-3, including those incorporated herein by reference.

Item 17. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii), and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is a part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
