The selling stockholders named in this prospectus may use this prospectus to offer and resell from time to time up to 1,724,019 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which are comprised of (i) 333,843 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of our common stock issuable to the selling stockholders upon the exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”) issued to the selling stockholders pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated June 15, 2023, including the initial Supplement referenced therein (the “Supplement”), by and among us, our wholly owned subsidiary, Beyond Air Ltd. (the “Guarantor”), Avenue Capital Management II, L.P., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P., as a lender (“Avenue”), and Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P., as a lender (“Avenue 2” and, together with Avenue, the “Lenders”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan Documents, dated June 21, 2024 (as amended and together with the Supplement as amended, the “Loan and Security Agreement”); and (ii) 1,390,176 shares (the “Conversion Shares” and together with the Warrant Shares, the “Shares”) of our common stock issuable to the selling stockholders upon conversion of up to $3,000,000 of the outstanding principal amount under the senior secured term loans issued by us pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Conversion Right”), calculated by dividing such total aggregate convertible amount by 130% of the exercise price of certain of the Warrants as of the date of this prospectus (i.e., $1.66), or $2.158.

The Warrants were issued to the selling stockholders in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. We are registering the offer and resale of the Shares to satisfy the provisions of the Loan and Security Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to register the resale of the Shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus under the caption “Selling Stockholders,” from time to time, of up to an aggregate of 1,724,019 shares of our common stock.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the risks discussed under the section captioned “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and other documents that we file with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus, together with the information included in this prospectus and documents incorporated by reference herein, and in any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be harmed. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and our shareholders may lose all or part of their investment in the shares of our common stock. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, including the reports we incorporate by reference, you should consider the following factor before investing in our securities.

We are currently not in compliance with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market, and if we are unable to regain compliance, our common stock will be delisted from the exchange.

Our common stock is currently listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “XAIR”. The continued listing of our common stock on Nasdaq is subject to our compliance with a number of listing standards. On August 8, 2024, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq (the “Staff”) notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s common stock had been below the minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share, required by the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In June 2024, our shares began trading below $1.00, and the trading price of our shares has not yet risen above that price for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, as required by the listing standards to regain compliance.

The notification letter has no immediate effect on the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 days, or until February 4, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”) to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with these requirements or that our common stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq. If we are unable to regain compliance by the Compliance Date, we may be eligible for consideration of a second 180-day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement and provide Nasdaq with written notice of our intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company does not meet the other listing standards, Nasdaq could provide notice that the Company’s common stock will become subject to delisting. There can be no assurance that, if we were to effect a reverse stock split after obtaining the required approvals and intending to regain compliance, the reverse stock split would cause our common stock to meet the bid price requirement. If the Company fails to regain compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing standards, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

Such a delisting or even notification of failure to comply with such requirements would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In addition, the delisting of our common stock could lead to a number of other negative implications such as a loss of media and analyst coverage, a determination that our common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and likely result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities, and materially adversely impact our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms or at all. Delisting from Nasdaq could also have other negative results, including the potential loss of confidence by our current or prospective third-party providers and collaboration partners, the loss of institutional investor interest, and fewer licensing and partnering opportunities. In the event of a delisting, we expect to take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements.

If our common stock were no longer listed on Nasdaq, investors might only be able to trade on one of the over-the-counter markets. There is no assurance, however, that prices for our common stock would be quoted on one of these other trading systems or that an active trading market for our common stock would exist, which would materially and adversely impact the market value of our common stock and your ability to sell our common stock.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy, approved product and product candidates, certifications or approvals, timing of our clinical development activities, research and development costs, our commercialization plans and the expected timing thereof, timing and likelihood of success, and the plans and objectives of management for future operations and future results of anticipated products are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements express or implied by the forward-looking statements.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar conditional expressions. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus or the documents incorporated herein by reference are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus and are subject to a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including the factors described under Item 1A “Risk Factors” contained in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as the following:

Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties.

We cannot guarantee that the results and other expectations expressed, anticipated or implied in any forward-looking statement will be realized. The risks set forth under Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, as revised or supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents we file with the SEC, describe major risks to our business, and you should read and interpret any forward-looking statements together with these risks. A variety of factors, including these risks, could cause our actual results and other expectations to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed, anticipated or implied in our forward-looking statements. Should known or unknown risks materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could differ materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected in the forward-looking statements. You should bear this in mind as you consider any forward-looking statements.

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we incorporate by reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds from any disposition of the Shares will be received by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any of the proceeds from any such Shares offered by this prospectus. We will, however, receive the net proceeds of any Warrants exercised for cash. We expect to use the proceeds received from the exercise of the Warrants, if any, for the general working capital purposes.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. Moreover, we do not anticipate paying periodic cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support our operations and finance the growth and development of our business. The Loan and Security Agreement also prohibits us from paying any dividends. Any future determination about the payment of dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, capital requirements, operating and financial conditions and on such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those issuable to the selling stockholders upon exercise of the Warrants and the Conversion Right. We are registering the Shares in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the Shares for resale from time to time.

Neither the selling stockholders, nor any persons having control over the selling stockholders, have held any position or office with us or our affiliates within the last three years or have had a material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates within the past three years.

The selling stockholders may sell some, all or none of their Shares. We do not know how long the selling stockholders will hold the Warrants, whether any will exercise the Warrants or the Conversion Right, and upon such exercise, how long such selling stockholders will hold the Shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling stockholders regarding the sale of any of the Shares.

The following table presents information regarding the selling stockholders and the shares that each may offer and sell from time to time under this prospectus. The table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the selling stockholders without regard to ownership limitations set forth in the applicable agreements or other documents relating to such Shares or Warrants, including (i) all of the Shares offered hereby, and (ii) to our knowledge, all other securities held by each of the selling stockholders as of the date hereof, and reflects their respective holdings as of August 14, 2024. Except as noted below, beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 thereunder.

The percentage of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering is based on 45,900,821 shares of our common stock actually outstanding as of June 30, 2024.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Conversion Right on behalf of the selling stockholders named herein. The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees, and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, on a continuous or delayed basis, sell any or all of their shares of common stock covered hereby directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. The sale of the selling stockholders’ common stock offered by this prospectus may be effected in one or more of the following methods:

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares of the selling stockholders may be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, such shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with.

The selling stockholders may also sell or transfer shares of common stock pursuant to any available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, or Rule 144, if available, rather than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer the shares of common stock by other means not described in this prospectus.

The selling stockholders may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that the selling stockholders will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share that may be below the then market price.

Brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares held by the selling stockholders as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the selling stockholders and/or purchasers of the common stock for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act.

The selling stockholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares of common stock, nor is there an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with a proposed sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. If we are notified by the selling stockholders that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of common stock, if required, we will file a supplement to this prospectus.

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

With regard only to the shares it sells for its own behalf, each selling stockholder may be deemed an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This offering as it relates to each selling stockholder will terminate on the date that all shares offered by the selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus have been sold.

We may suspend the sale of shares by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus for certain periods of time for certain reasons, including if the prospectus is required to be supplemented or amended to include additional material information.

If the selling stockholders use this prospectus for any sale of the shares of common stock, the selling stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

We will pay the expenses in connection with the registration of the shares being registered hereunder. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities in accordance with the Loan and Security Agreement.

We agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep this registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act, and prepare and file prospectus supplements that includes any information previously omitted from the prospectus filed as part of the initial registration statement and pre- and post-effective amendments as necessary, until the date that all of the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right and the exercise of the Warrants have been sold thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144.

Regulation M

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of our common stock and activities of the selling stockholders.

While the selling stockholders are engaged in a distribution of the shares included in this prospectus they are required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling stockholders, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security that is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares offered hereby this prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following summary of the terms of our common stock is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, copies of which are on file with the SEC as exhibits to previous filings with the SEC. Please refer to “Where You Can Find More Information” below for directions on obtaining these documents.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 110,000,000 shares, 100,000,000 of which is designated as common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2024, there were 45,900,821 shares of common stock outstanding, held by 105 stockholders of record. This figure does not reflect the number of beneficial owners of shares of our common stock as a single stockholder of record often holds shares in nominee name (also referred to as, in “street name”) on behalf of multiple beneficial owners.

Voting Rights

Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders, including the election of directors. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a plurality of the votes properly cast for election to any office shall elect to such office and a majority of the votes properly cast upon any question other than an election to an office shall decide the question, except when a larger vote is required by law, by our certificate of incorporation or by our bylaws.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting rights. Because of this, the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose.

Dividend Rights

Subject to the preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, the holders of our outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. We have never paid a dividend and we do not anticipate paying a dividend in the foreseeable future.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities, subject to the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Other Rights and Preferences

The terms of our common stock do not include any preemptive, conversion or subscription rights, nor any redemption or sinking fund provisions. The common stock is not subject to future calls or assessments by us. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may classify and issue in the future.

Outstanding Stock Options

As of June 30, 2024, we had outstanding options to purchase 11,166,844 shares of our common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $4.41 per share, 11,091,844 of which were underlying options granted pursuant to the 2013 Plan. The remaining options were options to purchase 75,000 shares of our common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $10.68 per share issued outside of our equity compensation plans as an inducement material to certain individuals entering into employment with us in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). As of June 30, 2024, there were 421,558 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2013 Plan.

Outstanding Restricted Stock Units

As of June 30, 2024, we had 612,900 shares of our common stock underlying outstanding restricted stock units, none of which was underlying outstanding restricted stock units which were issued outside of our equity compensation plans as an inducement material to certain individuals entering into employment with us in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).

2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

As of June 30, 2024, there were 750,000 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Outstanding Warrants

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The following table sets forth the expenses to be incurred in connection with the offering described in this registration statement, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, all of which will be paid by us. All amounts are estimates except the SEC registration fee.

*The SEC registration fee for this registration statement is fully offset, pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, by the unutilized registration fee paid by the Company for a prior registration statement.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of its directors or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides that the liability of our directors for monetary damages shall be eliminated to the fullest extent under applicable law.

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he or she is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that we are authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) our directors, officers and agents (and any other persons to which applicable law permits us to provide indemnification) through bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by such applicable law. Our bylaws provide that (i) we shall indemnify our directors and executive officers (as defined under the Exchange Act); provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with its directors and executive officers and (ii) we shall have power to indemnify its other officers, employees and other agents as set forth in the DGCL or any other applicable law.

We maintain a general liability insurance policy that covers certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

Insofar as the forgoing provisions permit indemnification of directors, executive officers, or persons controlling us for liability arising under the Securities Act, 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.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

(a) Exhibits

See the Exhibit Index List below, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% 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 this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (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 Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “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 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.

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

(i) 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

(ii) 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 of 1933 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;

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement 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.

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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
