CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the other documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated herein by reference, contain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “projects”, “forecasts”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “seeks”, “plans”, “scheduled”, “anticipates” or “intends” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements about:

The risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” are not exhaustive. Other sections of this prospectus describe additional factors that could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business, or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
In particular, you should consider the numerous risks described in our registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on July 29, 2022, as amended (File No. 333-266423), which we refer to in this prospectus as the Form S-1, and as described or may be described in any Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Item 1A.

Our Company
Overview
We are focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary biosensor technologies which, when paired with our artificial intelligence, or AI, deep learning platform, are capable of uniquely identifying and measuring almost any material or analyte using electromagnetic energy to detect, record, identify and measure the unique “signature” of said materials or analytes. We call this our “Bio-RFID” technology platform, when pertaining to radio and microwave spectroscopy, and our “ChromaID” technology platform, when pertaining to optical spectroscopy. The data obtained with our biosensor technology is analyzed with our trade secret algorithms which are driven by our AI deep learning platform.
ChromaID is the first technology developed and patented by our company. For the past several years, we have focused on extensions and new patentable inventions that are derived from and extend beyond our ChromaID technology and intellectual property. The rapid advances made with our Bio-RFID technology in our laboratory have caused us to move quickly into the commercialization phase of our company as we work to create revenue generating products for the marketplace. Today, the primary focus of our company is on our Bio-RFID technology and our commercialization and development of related patent assets. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, we work to exploit additional opportunities and markets that our broad intellectual property and trade secret portfolio addresses.
Corporate History and Structure
Know Labs, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1998. Since 2007, our company has been focused primarily on research and development of proprietary spectroscopic technologies spanning the electromagnetic spectrum.
On April 30, 2020, we incorporated Particle, Inc. as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada. Particle, Inc. is focused on the development and commercialization of our extensive intellectual property relating to electromagnetic energy outside of the medical diagnostic arena which remains the parent company’s singular focus.
On September 17, 2021, we incorporated of AI Mind, Inc. as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada. AI Mind, Inc. is focused on monetizing the AI deep learning platform.
Our Opportunity
The first applications of our Bio-RFID technology will be in a product marketed as a non-invasive glucose monitor. It will provide the user with real time information on their blood glucose levels. This product will require clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, prior to its introduction to the market, which we plan to pursue. The addressable market for a non-invasive blood glucose monitor is very large and includes, globally, not only the approximately 450 million individuals suffering from diabetes but the more than one billion individuals with pre-diabetes. |

| Our Products and Services
We are currently undertaking internal development work on potential products for the commercial marketplace. We have announced the development of our non-invasive glucose monitor and our desire to obtain FDA clearance for the marketing of this product. We have also announced the engagement of a manufacturing partner we will work with to bring this product to market. We will make further announcements regarding our products as development, testing, manufacturing, and regulatory approval work progresses.
Competition
We group the competition into three large categories. Those are (i) large global technology companies who may enter the blood glucose monitoring and other diagnostic markets, (ii) legacy providers of blood glucose monitoring technology, and (iii) new entrants working to achieve a non-invasive solution or more acceptable blood glucose monitoring solution which may or may not be similar to our technology. With regard to companies in each category, we perform due diligence from all publicly available sources of information on their relevant technologies and their product plans. This information informs and refines our activities and underscores our sense of urgency as we work to bring our own technology to the marketplace. The addressable market is very large and there is room for a multitude of providers of blood glucose monitoring services. Of note, few, if any, of the competitors in the blood glucose monitoring space possess a platform technology competitive with our Bio-RFID technology and our ability to identify a multitude of analytes in the human body.
Competitive Advantages
We believe our key competitive strengths include: |
| ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Bio-RFID’s ability to not only identify a wide range of organic and inorganic materials and analytes, but to do so concurrently, and in real time, which potentially enables new multivariate models of clinical diagnostics, and health and wellness monitoring. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Our Bio-RFID technology is non-invasive, using radio waves to identify and measure what is going on inside the body. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Our Bio-RFID technology platform that can be integrated into a variety of wearable, mobile or bench-top form factors. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | No needles nor invasive transmitters in your body, making Bio-RFID sensors convenient and pain-free. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Expensive supplies, such as test strips and lancets, are not required to operate Bio-RFID devices. |
|

|
| Growth Strategy |
| ||
|
|
|
| ||
|
| The key elements of our strategy to grow our business include: |
| ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Initially, entering the diabetes continuous glucose monitoring market with our non-invasive continuous glucose monitoring product. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Following our entry into the continuous glucose monitoring market, entering other clinical monitoring markets for continuous, non-invasive hormone, medication metabolite, endocrinology components and biomolecular monitoring. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Applying our Bio-RFID platform technology to lifestyle analysis, clinical trials and chronic illnesses. We believe that potential use cases include real time wearable medication monitoring and detection of, for example, ovulation and hormone deficiency. |

| Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the World Health Organization classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The spread of COVID-19 caused public health officials to recommend precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus, especially as to travel and congregating in large numbers. Over time, the incidence of COVID-19 and its variants has diminished although periodic spikes in incidence occur. Consequently, restrictions imposed by various governmental health organizations may change over time. Several states have lifted restrictions only to reimpose such restrictions as the number of cases rise and new variants arise. |

| Over the past two years, the impact of COVID-19 has had adverse effects on our business by slowing down our ability to work with third parties outside of Seattle on testing and validation. We have witnessed supply chain related delays and increasing costs due to inflation. It is difficult to predict what other adverse effects, if any, COVID-19 and related matters can have on our business, or against the various aspects of same.
We may experience long-term disruptions to our operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic and the presence of new variants of COVID-19; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities critical to its business or supply chains. We are actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce. See also “Risk Factors” for more information.

Recent Developments
NYSE Listing
The Company’s common stock began trading on the NYSE under the symbol KNW on September 16, 2022 following the pricing (and the entering into the Underwriting Agreement) of the Offering, discussed below.
Underwriting Agreement
On September 15, 2022, Know Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Boustead Securities, LLC, as representative (the “Representative”) of the underwriters named on Schedule 1 thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to the Company’s public offering of common stock (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 3,600,000 shares of common stock to the Underwriters, at a purchase price per share of $1.86 (the offering price to the public of $2.00 per share minus the Underwriters’ discount), and also granted to the Underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 540,000 additional shares, solely to cover over-allotments, if any, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts, pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-266423) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1MEF (File No. 333-267448) filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act (together, the “Registration Statements”).
On September 20, 2022, the closing of the Offering was completed. At closing, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full. As a result, the Company sold 4,140,000 shares of common stock for total gross proceeds of approximately $8.3 million. After deducting the underwriting commission and expenses, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $7.5 million.
The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company. It also provides that the Company will indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
On September 20, 2022, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued a common stock purchase warrant to the Representative for the purchase of 289,800 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.40, subject to adjustments (the “Warrant”). The Warrant is exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, until September 15, 2027 and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Warrant also includes customary anti-dilution provisions and immediate piggyback registration rights with respect to the registration of the shares underlying the Warrant. The Warrant and the shares of common stock underlying the Warrant were registered as a part of the Registration Statements. |

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and the risk factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Form S-1 and as described or may be described in any subsequent Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” as well as in any other documents we file with the SEC that are deemed incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the “Risk Factors” section in the applicable prospectus supplement, for a discussion of the factors you should carefully consider before deciding to purchase our securities. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference into this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. The risks and uncertainties 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 our business operations. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. The discussion of risks includes or refers to forward-looking statements. You should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed elsewhere in this prospectus.
We may use these proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling stockholders. However, we may receive up to $15,694,288 in proceeds payable by selling stockholders upon exercise of warrants. While we currently intend to use these proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, we have considerable discretion in the application of the proceeds. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used in a manner agreeable to you. You must rely on our judgment regarding the application of these proceeds. The proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not immediately improve our profitability or increase the price of our common stock. See “Use of Proceeds” for more information.
You may lose all of your investment.
Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. As an investor, you might never recoup all, or even part of, your investment and you may never realize any return on your investment. You must be prepared to lose all your investment.
The price of our common stock is volatile, which may cause investment losses for our stockholders.
The market price of our common stock has been and is likely in the future to be volatile. Our common stock price may fluctuate in response to factors such as:
|
| ● | Announcements by us regarding liquidity, significant acquisitions, equity investments and divestitures, strategic relationships, addition or loss of significant customers and contracts, capital expenditure commitments and litigation; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Issuance of convertible or equity securities and related warrants for general or merger and acquisition purposes; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Issuance or repayment of debt, accounts payable or convertible debt for general or merger and acquisition purposes; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Sale of a significant number of shares of our common stock by stockholders; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | General market and economic conditions; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Quarterly variations in our operating results; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Investor and public relation activities; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Announcements of technological innovations; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | New product introductions by us or our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
|
| ● | Competitive activities; |
|
|

These broad market and industry factors may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market by certain of our stockholders could cause our stock price to fall.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We are unable to predict the effect that sales may have on the prevailing market price of our Common Stock.
If securities industry analysts do not publish research reports on us, or publish unfavorable reports on us, then the market price and market trading volume of our common stock could be negatively affected.
Any trading market for our common stock may be influenced in part by any research reports that securities industry analysts publish about us. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by securities industry analysts. If no securities industry analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our securities could be negatively affected. In the event we are covered by analysts, and one or more of such analysts downgrade our securities, or otherwise reports on us unfavorably, or discontinues coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our securities could be negatively affected.
An active trading market for our Common Stock may not be maintained.
Our Common Stock is currently traded on NYSE American, but we can provide no assurance that we will be able to maintain an active trading market on this or any other exchange in the future. If an active market for our Common Stock is not maintained, it may be difficult for our stockholders to sell or purchase shares. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares and impair our ability to acquire other companies or technologies using our shares as consideration.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders. We may, however, receive up to $15,694,288 from the exercise of warrants held by selling stockholders. We expect to use the proceeds from the exercise of such warrants, if any, for general corporate purposes. General corporate purposes may include providing working capital and general corporate purposes. We cannot precisely estimate the allocation of the net proceeds from any exercise of the warrants for cash. Accordingly, in the event the warrants are exercised for cash, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds of such exercises. There is no assurance that the warrants will ever be exercised for cash.
The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by them for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by them in disposing of the shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our accountants.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, based on the information provided to us by or on behalf of the selling stockholders, no selling stockholder is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.
Applicable percentage ownership is based on 48,156,062 shares of common stock outstanding as of December 2, 2022. For purposes of computing percentage ownership after this offering, we have assumed that all shares held by the selling stockholders will be sold in this offering and all warrants and shares of series C and D convertible preferred stock and convertible notes held by the selling stockholders will be converted to common stock and sold in this offering. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed to be outstanding all shares subject to options, warrants or other convertible securities held by that person or entity that are currently exercisable or releasable or that will become exercisable or releasable within 60 days of December 2, 2022. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
The following table sets forth the names of the Selling Stockholders, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders as of the date hereof and the number of shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Stockholders. The shares being offered hereby are being registered to permit public secondary trading, and the Selling Stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. However, the Selling Stockholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of such shares. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the Selling Stockholders. The “Number of Shares Beneficially Owned After the Offering” column assumes the sale of all shares offered.
The common stock being offered by the Selling Stockholders are those owned by the Selling Stockholders and those issuable to the Selling Stockholders, upon exercise of the Warrants. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the Selling Stockholders to offer these shares for resale from time to time. Except for the investment in the shares of Common Stock the Selling Stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The selling stockholders, including any donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholders as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the 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.
The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
| · | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker‑dealer solicits investors; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | block trades in which the broker‑dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | purchases by a broker‑dealer as principal and resale by the broker‑dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | through the writing of options on the shares; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | to cover short sales made after the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | broker‑dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | any other method permitted by applicable law. |
The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of their shares of common stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.
The selling stockholders may decide not to sell any of their shares of common stock, or may sell all or a portion of their shares of common stock. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of any sale of shares, and may sell the shares directly or through one or more broker-dealers or agents. To the extent that the selling stockholders employ broker-dealers or other agents in connection with the sale of stock, the selling stockholders will pay any commissions, discounts or other amounts due to such broker-dealers or agents. To our knowledge, the selling stockholders have not entered into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any particular broker-dealer or market maker with respect to the sale or distribution of the shares of common stock offered hereby.
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 an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. 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 stockholders for purposes of this prospectus.

| Table of Contents |
In connection with the sale of our common stock 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 common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short 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 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 aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling stockholders reserve 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. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these stock sales by the selling stockholders.
To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.
The selling stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholders or any other such person. In the event that any of the selling stockholders are deemed an affiliated purchaser or distribution participant within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In addition, if a short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the common stock.
To the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in this prospectus, the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, any prospectus supplement, or any information incorporated by reference herein, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that we will not be liable for any liabilities finally adjudicated to be caused solely by a false statement of material fact contained within written information provided by a selling stockholder expressly for the purpose of including it in prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
We also have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part effective until the earlier of (1) the date on which all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been sold, or (2) the date on which all of the shares may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
We are a Nevada corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes and certain provisions of our bylaws under certain circumstances provide for indemnification of our officers, directors and controlling persons against liabilities which they may incur in such capacities. A summary of the circumstances in which such indemnification is provided for is contained herein, but this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to our bylaws and to the statutory provisions.
In general, any officer, director, employee or agent may be indemnified against expenses, fines, settlements or judgments arising in connection with a legal proceeding to which such person is a party, if that person’s actions were in good faith, were believed to be in our best interest, and were not unlawful. Unless such person is successful upon the merits in such an action, indemnification may be awarded only after a determination by independent decision of our board of directors, by legal counsel, or by a vote of our stockholders, that the applicable standard of conduct was met by the person to be indemnified.
The circumstances under which indemnification is granted in connection with an action brought on our behalf is generally the same as those set forth above; however, with respect to such actions, indemnification is granted only with respect to expenses actually incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of the action. In such actions, the person to be indemnified must have acted in good faith and in a manner believed to have been in our best interest, and have not been adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct.
Indemnification may also be granted pursuant to the terms of agreements which may be entered or pursuant to a vote of stockholders or directors. The Nevada Revised Statutes also grant us the power to purchase and maintain insurance which protects our officers and directors against any liabilities incurred in connection with their service in such a position, and such a policy may be obtained by us.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our articles of incorporation eliminate or limit the liability of our directors to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty as a director.
We have entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provides, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim. The indemnification agreements will provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee and for reimbursement to us if it is found that such indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws.
We have a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in place pursuant to which its directors and officers are insured against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.
As far as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

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 of 1933, as amended; |
|
|
|
|
|
| (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 a 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 the registration statement or any material change to such information in 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 under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. 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 first use, 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 date of first use. |
|
|
|
|
|
| (5) | 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 |
|
|
|
|
|
| (iv) | Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
| II-3 |
| Table of Contents |
|
| (6) | 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 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. |
In so far as indemnification for liabilities arising under the securities 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.
