Up to 3,012,048 Units consisting of

Up to 3,012,048 Shares of Common Stock and

Up to 4,518,072 Common Warrants to purchaseUp to 4,518,072 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 3,012,048 Pre-Funded Units consistingof

Up to 3,012,048 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchaseUp to 3,012,048 Shares of Common Stock and

Up to 4,518,072 Common Warrants to purchaseUp to 4,518,072 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 3,012,048 Shares of Common Stock Underlyingthe Pre-Funded Warrants

Up to 4,518,072 Shares of Common Stock Underlyingthe Common Warrants

Weare offering on a best efforts basis up to 3,012,048 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one and one-half commonwarrants to purchase one and one-half shares of common stock, at an assumed offering price of $1.66 per unit, which is equal to the closingprice of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on May 28, 2024 for gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000. The common warrantsincluded in the units will have an initial exercise price of $[*] per share (equal to 100% of the public offering price of each unitsold in this offering), will be exercisable immediately and will expire five years from the date of issuance. For the common warrants,if, on the date that is 30 calendar days immediately following the initial issuance date (the “Reset Date”), the Reset Price,as defined below, is less than the exercise price at such time, the exercise price of the warrants shall be decreased to the Reset Price.“Reset Price” means 100% of the arithmetic average of the daily VWAPs during the five trading days immediately precedingthe Reset Date, provided, that in no event shall the Reset Price be less than 20% of the most recent closing price at the time of executionof the securities purchase agreement (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactionsfollowing the date of the securities purchase agreement).

We are also offering theshares of our common stock that are issuable from time to time upon the exercise of the common warrants included in the units.

We are also offering to certainpurchasers whose purchase of units in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certainrelated parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock immediatelyfollowing the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if any such purchaser so chooses, pre-funded units, each pre-fundedunit consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock and the same common warrant described above with eachshare of common stock, in lieu of units that would otherwise result in such purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or,at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded unit will be equal tothe price per unit being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant includedin the pre-funded units will be $0.001 per share. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable immediately and may be exercised at anytime until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. For each pre-funded unit we sell, the number of units (and shares ofcommon stock) we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. This offering also relates to the shares of common stock issuableupon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants included in the pre-funded units.

The units and pre-funded unitshave no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities. The shares of common stock or pre-fundedwarrants and the common warrants comprising the units or the pre-funded units, as the case may be, are immediately separable and willbe issued separately in this offering. We are also registering the shares of common stock issuable from time to time upon exercise ofthe common warrants and pre-funded warrants included in the units and pre-funded units offered hereby.

Our common stock is listedon the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC under the symbol “KAVL.” On May 28, 2024, the closing price of our common stock on the NasdaqStock Market, LLC was $1.66 per share. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the units, the pre-funded units, the pre-funded warrants,or the common warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, theliquidity of the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants will be limited.

The units and pre-funded unitswill be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. There is no minimum number of securities or minimumaggregate amount of proceeds for this offering to close. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares of our common stock underlyingthe pre-funded warrants and the common warrants will be offered on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of1933, as amended. We expect this offering to be completed not later than two business days following the commencement of sales in thisoffering (after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part) and we will deliver all securitiesto be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment or receipt versus payment, as the case may be, upon receipt of investorfunds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the placement agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrowaccount or trust account since the placement agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offeredhereunder.

We have engaged Maxim Group LLC(the “placement agent” or “Maxim”), to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with this offering.The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus.The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering and the placement agent is not required to arrangethe purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as acondition to closing in this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent’s fee and proceeds to us, if any, are not presentlydeterminable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering amounts described throughout this prospectus. We have agreedto pay the placement agent, the placement agent fees set forth in the table below and to provide certain other compensation to the PlacementAgent. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information regarding these arrangements.

Our primary productis the Bidi® Stick as well as other products manufactured by our affiliate Bidi Vapor LLC (“Bidi”). We holdthe exclusive worldwide right to market and distribute the Bidi® Stick and certain other products manufactured by Bidi.Our current revenue generating activities are focused on driving sales growth of the BIDI® Stick, primarily through wholesaleand traditional retail channels, including convenience stores. Along with our affiliate Bidi, which bears the bulk of the responsibilityfor U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and other regulatory matters relating to its products, we are committed to steadfastcompliance with established FDA requirements regarding the use of our products.

At the same time, as the FDA regulatorylandscape and Premarket Tobacco Product Application (“PMTA”)-related enforcement continues to evolve, we have faced challengesand industry-wide headwinds, which we are continuing to navigate by pursuing new revenue opportunities by diversifying our platform throughthe distribution, development, and subsequent scaling of other nicotine and non-nicotine products. An important goal for our company isto leverage our existing presence with our sales channels to establish an efficient platform fromwhich to create shareholder value by developing and growing current and potentially new business lines, revenues and, ultimately, positivecash flows and profitability.

Business Strategy

In additionto our focus on driving revenue through distribution of the BIDI® Stick, we intend to build our revenue by executing key internalstrategic initiatives. Accomplishing these financial goals will depend on a number of factors including our ability to execute these strategies.Representative key initiatives include:

Maximizing the core business:
Continuing the growth and management of strategic alliances with market leaders within dense, established e-cigarette markets;
Development of internal national account sales team to drive new revenue opportunities and manage key strategic third-party vendor and broker alliances to maximize targeted market penetration;
Search for high-caliber, experienced talent that create impact and add value to our organization quickly;

2

Effective financial management and capital planning:
Establishing an efficient, scalable organizational infrastructure to support our expected growth and diversification;
Improving overall business processes to deliver greater value to our customers;
Data-driven product innovation and strategic expansion:
Investing in our core organizational capabilities to provide diversified, revenue generative opportunities both through our existing distribution network and beyond;
Further development of internal data processes to drive growth and diversification efforts;
Pursuing third-party licensing opportunities through our vaporization and inhalation-related intellectual property portfolio which we acquired from GoFire Inc. in May 2023;
During 2024 and beyond, we plan on exploring strategic acquisition and collaboration arrangements that generate revenue, positive cash flows and profitable operations in order to expand the scale of our company by capitalizing on our traditional retail outlet and other distribution relationships.

We will continue to align ourselveswith progressive, proven, performance-based partners, which may include the development and expansion of key financial services relationshipsas we seek to diversify through data-driven decisions.

Description of Business Segments & Key Agreements

Bidi Vapor, LLC Distribution Agreement

On March 9, 2020, we entered intoan exclusive distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with our affiliate Bidi, which Distribution Agreement wasamended and restated on May 21, 2020, April 20, 2021, on June 10, 2022, and on November 17, 2022 (collectively, the “A&R DistributionAgreement”). Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi granted us an exclusive worldwide right to distribute Bidi’sENDS (as more particularly set forth in the A&R Distribution Agreement) for sale and resale to both retail level customers and non-retaillevel customers. Currently, the products consist solely of the “BIDI® Stick,” Bidi’s disposable, tamper resistantENDS product made with medical-grade components, a UL-certified battery and technology designed to deliver a consistent vaping experiencefor adult smokers 21 and over. We presently distribute products to wholesalers and retailers of ENDS products, having ceased all direct-to-consumersales in February 2021. Nirajkumar Patel, our Chief Executive Officer and director and an indirect controlling shareholder of our company,owns Bidi.

BIDI® Stick comes in a varietyof flavor options for adult cigarette smokers. We do not manufacture any of the products we resell. The BIDI® Stick is manufacturedby Bidi. Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi provides us with all branding, logos, and marketing materialsto use with our commercial partners in connection with our marketing and promotion of Bidi products.

The A&R Distribution Agreementextends the previous one-year, annual renewable term to an initial term of ten years, which automatically renews for another ten-yearterm if we satisfy certain minimum purchase thresholds. The A&R Distribution Agreement also provides us with a right of first refusalin the event Bidi receives an offer that would constitute a “change of control transaction,” as well as a right of first refusalto act as the exclusive distributor of any and all future products of Bidi that arise out of or related to ENDS and components relatedto ENDS, or arise out of or related to the tobacco-derived nicotine industry.

In connection with the A&RDistribution Agreement, we entered into non-exclusive sub-distribution agreements, some of which were subsequently amended and restatedby the parties in order to clarify certain provisions (all such sub-distribution agreements, as amended and restated, are collectivelyreferred to as the “Sub-Distribution Agreements”), whereby we appointed the counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors.Pursuant to the Sub-Distribution Agreements, the sub-distributors agreed to purchase for resale products in such quantities as they shouldneed to properly service non-retail customers within the continental United States (the “Territory”).

3

We process all sales made to non-retailcustomers, with all sales to non-retail customers made through Bidi’s age-restricted website, www.wholesale.bidivapor.com. We ceasedall direct-to-consumer sales in February 2021 in order to better ensure youth access prevention and to comply with the Prevent All CigaretteTrafficking Act (known as the PACT Act). We provide all customer service and support at our own expense. We set the minimum prices forall sales made by us. We maintain adequate inventory levels of products in order to meet the demands of our non-retail customers and deliverproducts sold to these customers.

A key third party collaborator of ours wasQuikfillRx, LLC, (QuikfillRx)a Florida limited liability company. QuikfillRx provided us with certain services and support relating to sales management, website developmentand design, graphics, content, public communication, social media, management and analytics, and market and other research. QuikfillRxprovided these services to us pursuant to a Services Agreement, pursuant to which QuikfillRx received monthly cash compensation and wasgranted certain equity compensation in the form of options. This Agreement was terminated in February 2024.

Kaival Labs, Inc. & Kaival Brands International,LLC.

On August 31, 2020, we formed Kaival Labs, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinreferred to as “Kaival Labs”), as a wholly owned subsidiary for the purpose of developing our own branded and white-labelproducts and services, of which none has commenced as of the date of this prospectus. We have not yet launched any Kaival-branded products,nor has it begun to provide white label wholesale solutions for other product manufacturers.

We have, and may continue to, utilizeKaival Labs to acquire or license complimentary businesses or assets. On May 30, 2023, through Kaival Labs, we acquired certain vaporizationand inhalation-related intellectual property from GoFire, Inc. (“GoFire”) in exchange for equity securities for our companyand contingent cash consideration. The goal of this acquisition is to diversify our product offerings and create near and longer-termrevenue opportunities in the form of potential licenses for the acquired technology and our development of new products based on the purchasedassets. In the near term, we expect to seek third-party licensing opportunities in the cannabis, hemp/CBD, nicotine and nutraceuticalmarkets. Longer term, we believe we can utilize the purchased assets to create innovative and market-disruptive products, including patentprotected vaporizer devices and related hardware and software applications. No assurances can be given, however, that the GoFire assetswill generate revenue for us in the future or otherwise create the value for our company that we anticipate.

On March 11, 2022, we formed KaivalBrands International, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (herein referred to as “KBI”), as a wholly owned subsidiaryfor the purpose of entering into an international licensing agreement with Philip Morris Products S.A. (“PMPSA”), a whollyowned affiliate of Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”), as described further below.

FDA PMTA and MDO Determinations, Related CourtActions and the Impact on Our Business

Non-Tobacco Flavored BIDI®Sticks

In September 2021, in connectionwith the Bidi’s Premarket Tobacco Product Application (“PMTA”) process for BIDI®Stick, the U.S.Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) effectively “banned” non-tobacco flavored ENDS by denying nearly all then-pendingPMTAs for such products (including Bidi’s). Following the issuance by the FDA of a related Marketing Denial Order (“MDO”)regarding these ENDS products, manufacturers were required to stop selling non-tobacco flavored ENDS products. Bidi, along with nearlyevery other company in the ENDS industry, received a MDO for its non-tobacco flavored ENDS products. With respect to Bidi, the MDO coveredall non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks, including its Arctic (menthol) BIDI® Stick. As a result, beginning in September 2021, Bidipursued multiple avenues to challenge the MDO. First, on September 21, 2021, separate from the judicial appeal of the MDO in its entirety,Bidi filed a 21 C.F.R. §10.75 internal FDA supervisory review request specifically of the decision to include the Arctic (menthol)BIDI® Stick in the MDO. In May 2022, the FDA issued a determination that it views the Arctic BIDI® Stick as a non-tobacco flavoredENDS product, and not strictly a menthol flavored product.

On September29, 2021, Bidi petitioned the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit (or the 11th Circuit) to review the FDA’sdenial of the PMTAs for its non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Stick ENDS (including the Arctic BIDI® Stick), arguing that it was arbitraryand capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act (or the APA), as well as ultra vires, for the FDA not to conduct any scientificreview of Bidi’s comprehensive applications, as required by the Tobacco Control Act (or the TCA), to determine whether the BIDI®Sticks are “appropriate for the protection of the public health”. Bidi further argued that the FDA violated due process andthe APA by failing to provide fair notice of the FDA’s new requirement for ENDS companies to conduct long-term comparative smokingcessation studies for their non-tobacco flavored products compared to tobacco-flavored ENDS products, and that the FDA should have gonethrough the notice and comment rulemaking process for this requirement.

4

On August23, 2022, the 11th Circuit set aside (i.e., vacated) the MDO issued to the non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks and remandedBidi’s PMTA back to the FDA for further review. Specifically, the 11thCircuit held that the MDO was “arbitraryand capricious” in violation of the APA because the FDA failed to consider the relevant evidence before it, specifically Bidi’saggressive and comprehensive marketing and sales-access-restrictions plans designed to prevent youth appeal and access.

The 11thCircuit’sopinion further indicated that the FDA did not properly review the data and evidence that it has long made clear are critical to the“appropriate for the protection of the public health” standard for PMTAs set forth in the Tobacco Control Act including,in Bidi’s case, “product information, scientific safety testing, literature reviews, consumer insight surveys, and detailsabout our company’s youth access prevention measures, distribution channels, and adult-focused marketing practices,” which“target only existing adult vapor product users, including current adult smokers,” as well as our retailer monitoring programand state-of-the-art anti-counterfeit authentication system. Because a MDO must be based on a consideration of the relevant factors,such as the marketing and sales-access-restrictions plans, the denial order was deemed arbitrary and capricious, and vacated by the FDA.

The FDAdid not appeal to the 11th Circuit’s decision. The FDA had until October 7, 2022 (45 days from the August 23, 2022 decision) toeither request a panel rehearing or a rehearing “en banc” (a review by the entire 11th Circuit, not just the 3-judgepanel that issued the decision), and until November 21, 2022 (90 days after the decision) to seek review of the decision by the U.S. SupremeCourt. No request for a rehearing was filed, and no petition for a writ of certiorari was made to the Supreme Court.

As a resultof the 11th Circuit’s order on the flavored Bidi stick applications, Bidi has been able to continue marketing and selling the non-tobaccoflavored BIDI® Sticks, subject to FDA’s enforcement discretion, during the continued PMTA scientific review. Although the flavoredBidi sticks are still considered unlawful products under the terms of the Tobacco Control Act, the FDA has indicated that it is prioritizingenforcement of unauthorized ENDS against companies (1) that never submitted PMTAs, (2) whose PMTAs have been refused acceptance or filingby the FDA, (3) whose PMTAs remain subject to MDOs, or (4) that are continuing to market unauthorized synthetic nicotine products afterthe July 13, 2022 cutoff. As none of these scenarios apply to Bidi, we believe the current risk of FDA enforcement is low. However, thereis a risk that Bidi’s PMTA for non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks will be denied, which would have a significant adverse effecton our business and could lead to our bankruptcy or the failure of our business entirely.

Since the PMTA was remanded, Bidihas continued to update its application with the results of new studies, including a nationwide population prevalence study on the BIDI®Stick that is currently undergoing peer review for publication.

Classic BIDI®Stick

Separately, on or about May 13,2022, the FDA placed the tobacco-flavored Classic BIDI® Stick into the final Phase III scientific review, and in September 2022 completeda remote regulatory assessment of Bidi and its contract manufacturer in China, SMISS Technology Co. LTD, in relation to the pending PMTAfor the Classic BIDI® Stick.

On March 20, 2023 Bidi receivedits anticipated deficiency letter for the Classic BIDI® Stick PMTA, outlining FDA’s remaining scientific questions. On June18, 2023, Bidi, provided a timely, comprehensive response to the FDA’s deficiency letter.

On January 22, 2024, FDA issued an MDO for the Classic BIDI® Stick eventhough 23 other competing tobacco flavored ENDS products have received FDA marketing authorization. The FDA’s stated bases for theMDO included testing and data deficiencies specific to the Classic BIDI® Stick PMTA. While this development precludes us from marketingthe Classic BIDI® Stick, which could have a material adverse effect on our company, the FDA’s decision does not involve theten PMTAs for Bidi Vapor’s non-tobacco flavored devices described above which are still under the FDA’s scientific review.Those ten products remain available for sale, subject to FDA’s enforcement discretion.

In response to the Classic BIDI®Stick MDO, on January 26, 2024, Bidi filed a petition requesting that the 11th Circuit review the MDO, which Bidi believes was, amongother things, arbitrary and capricious, in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act. Bidi also sought a stay of the MDO pending theoutcome of the litigation, but the court denied the stay motion which means that the tobacco flavored Bidi stick product cannot currentlybe sold. The briefing schedule for Bidi’s petition calls for all substantive briefs of Bidi and the government to be filed on orabout June 2024. There is no schedule for any potential oral argument before the court, nor is there any deadline by which the court mustrule on the petition.The January 2024 MDO regarding Classic BIDI® Stick and the denial of Bidi’s motion for a stay havehad an immediate and ongoing adverse impact on our business, and the outcome of Bidi’s 11thCircuit petition is uncertain andwill likely take many months or longer to resolve. Our continuing inability to sell Classic BIDI® Stick could continue to cause materialimpediments to our ability to operate our business and cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations. No assurances canbe given on the timing or ultimate outcome of this litigation, and so long as the case remains undecided, we are unable to sell the ClassicBIDI® Stick product.

Moreover, FDA’s review of Bidi’s PMTA for its non-tobacco-flavored ENDSproducts could be completed before the 11th Circuit rules on Bidi’s petition for review of the MDO for the Classic BIDI® StickThere is a risk that FDA could issue an MDO to that PMTA based on similar reasons used by FDA to deny the Classic BIDI® Stick PMTA,in addition to reasons cited by FDA in every other MDO denying other non-tobacco-flavored PMTAs submitted by other applicants. If thatwere to occur and if Bidi is again unsuccessful in obtaining a judicial stay of the FDA’s MDO, we would have no products availableto sell, which would likely prevent us from continuing to operate our business.

Bidi’s non-tobacco flavoredENDS products generate the overwhelming majority of our sales revenues. The PMTA for those products has already been denied once by FDA,and is only being re-reviewed due to the order of the 11th Circuit. The FDA considers all flavored ENDS products to be illegal unlesssubject to a granted PMTA (of which there are none).

Additionally, in March 2023 theFDA, pursuant to the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (“FSPTCA”), proposed new requirements for tobacco productmanufacturers regarding the manufacture, design, packing and storage of tobacco products. The proposed rule establishes a framework ofmanufacturing practices including:

establishing tobacco product design and development controls;
ensuring that finished and bulk tobacco products are manufactured according to establishedspecifications;
minimizing the manufacture and distribution of tobacco products that don’t meet specifications;
requiring manufacturers to take appropriate measures to prevent contamination of tobaccoproducts;
requiring investigation and identification of products that don’t meet specificationsto institute appropriate corrective actions, such as a recall; and
establishing the ability to trace all components or parts, ingredients, additives andmaterials, as well as each batch of finished or bulk tobacco product, to aid in investigations of those that don’t meet specifications.

FDA states in the proposed rulethat “These requirements also would help minimize or prevent the manufacture and distribution of nonconforming electronic nicotinedelivery systems (ENDS) e-liquids that contain nicotine concentration levels that vary from the labeled amount and vary from one ENDSproduct to another within the same brand…..this potential variability in nicotine concentration, in which an e-liquid product containssignificantly higher levels of nicotine than what is stated on the label, could be misleading to consumers concerned about nicotine deliverylevels, potentially intensifying or prolonging their addiction and potentially exposing users to increased toxins. Tobacco products mayintroduce preventable harms not normally associated with use of tobacco products due to inadequate design or manufacturing controls; forexample, defective solder joints from an ENDS cartomizer (atomizer plus replaceable fluid-filled cartridge) may cause respiratory distressdue to metallic particles in the aerosol. This proposed regulation would help to assure that the public health is protected from these,and other, types of hazards.”

These rules if implemented couldhave an adverse effect on our business by increasing costs of manufacturing our ENDS products to ensure compliance.

Other Potential Product Offerings & Opportunities

In May 2023 we acquired 19 existingand 47 pending patents with novel technologies related to vaporization and inhalation technologies from GoFire. The GoFire patent portfolioincludes novel technologies across extrusion dose control, product preservation, tracking and tracing usage, multiple modalities (i.e.,different methods of vaporizing) and child safety. The patents and patent applications cover territories including the United States,Australia, Canada, China, the EPO (European Patent Organization), Israel, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand and South Korea. The portfolio alsoincludes a proprietary mobile device software application that is used in conjunction with certain patents in the portfolio.

In the near term, we expect toseek third-party licensing opportunities in the cannabis, hemp/CBD, nicotine, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical markets, as a means ofmonetizing our patents. Longer term, we believe we can utilize the acquired patents to create innovative and market-disruptive productsfor its growing base of adult consumers, including patent protected vaporizer devices and related hardware and software applications.

As described above, we hope togenerate revenue from this acquired intellectual property via licensing and product development activities. However, there can be no assurancethat we will be able to implement this strategy.

The Notice further stated unless the Company requestsan appeal of the above determination by May 7, 2024, Nasdaq has determined that the Company’s securities will be scheduled fordelisting from The Nasdaq Stock Market. On May 3, 2024, we requested an appeal hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel. Such requestwas granted, and an appeal hearing was scheduled for June 13, 2024. Additionally, we scheduled our annual meeting to be held on June25, 2024 and filed a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A on May 3, 2024 with respect to such annual meeting.

Reverse Stock Split

On January 22, 2024, theCompany filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretaryof State of the State of Delaware to affect a1-for-21 reverse stock split(the “2024 Reverse Stock Split”) ofthe shares of the Common Stock. The 2024 Reverse Stock Split was effective on January 25, 2024, on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Nofractional shares were issued in connection with the 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares of our Common Stock that wouldhave otherwise resulted from the 2024 Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole number. In connection with the 2024Reverse Stock Split, the Board approved appropriate and proportional adjustments to all outstanding securities or other rightsconvertible or exercisable into shares of the Common Stock, including, without limitation, all preferred stock, warrants, options,and other equity compensation rights. All historical share and per-share amounts reflected throughout this prospectus, including theconsolidated financial statements and other financial information that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus have beenretroactively adjusted to reflect the 2024 Reverse Stock Split as if the split occurred as of the earliest period presented. The parvalue per share of the Common Stock was not affected by the 2024 Reverse Stock Split.

During the three months ended January31, 2024, the Company issued52,949shares of common stock for rounding of shares related to the Reverse Split.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securitiesinvolves a high degree of risk. Before deciding to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertaintiesdescribed below and under Item 1A.Risk Factorsin our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securitiesand Exchange Commission, or SEC, on February 14, 2024, which are each incorporated by reference in this prospectus, together with allof the other information contained in this prospectus and documents incorporated by reference herein, and in any free writing prospectusthat we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of the matters discussed in the following risk factors were tooccur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects could be materially adversely affected, the marketprice of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment in our securities. Additional risks and uncertaintiesnot presently known or which we consider immaterial as of the date hereof may also have an adverse effect on our business.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our Business Is ParticularlyAt Risk Given The FDA’s Strict Regulatory And Enforcement Posture Toward ENDS Products Generally, And Adverse Regulatory And CourtDecisions Against Bidi ENDS Products In Particular.

The ENDSindustry is relatively new and is rapidly evolving, and the FDA has been aggressive in its oversight of the ENDS industry. Changes inexisting laws, regulations and policies and the issuance of new laws, regulations, policies, as well as the FDA’s actions on ENDS-relatedPMTAs (including Bidi’s) and any other entry barriers in relation to the ENDS industry may materially and adversely affect our abilityto conduct business and our results of operations.

In particular,FDA has only authorized the sale of approximately 23 tobacco-flavored ENDS products, and has denied marketing authorizations for everynon-tobacco-flavored ENDS product application it has acted upon. The FDA’s stated criteria for authorizing a non-tobacco-flavoredENDS product is that the applicant must demonstrate that the specific non-tobacco flavor “provide[s] an added benefit for adultswho smoke cigarettes—in terms of complete switching or significant smoking reduction—relative to that of tobacco-flavoredproducts that is sufficient to outweigh the known risks to youth.” However, some applicants whose non-tobacco flavored applicationswere denied by FDA have obtained judicial orders remanding the applications to FDA for further review.

Bidi, as well as other companies in the ENDS industry,has taken aggressive actions in response to adverse FDA decisions involving its products and its PMTAs for those products. These effortsby Bidi and others have resulted in some favorable preliminary court decisions, but also many significant unfavorable court decisions.Even if Bidi is able to continue its legal efforts to support its products and applications, the courts, including the Supreme Court,may ultimately issue rulings that could cause Bidi, and us, to go out of business.

RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING

This is a reasonable bestefforts offering, with no minimum amount of securities required to be sold, and we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby.

The placement agent has agreedto use its best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the units and pre-funded units in this offering. The placement agent has no obligationto buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities.There is no required minimum number of securities that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. As there is no minimumoffering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceedsto us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than allof the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offeringwill not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell all of the units or pre-funded units offered in this offering. The successof this offering will impact our ability to use the proceeds to execute our business plans. We may have insufficient capital to implementour business plans and satisfy current obligations, potentially resulting in greater operating losses or dilution unless we are able toraise the required capital from alternative sources. There is no assurance that alternative capital, if needed, would be available onterms acceptable to us, or at all.

10

You will experienceimmediate dilution in the net tangible book value per share of the common stock you purchase, and may experience additional dilution inthe future.

Because the effective priceper share of common stock included in the units or issuable upon exercise of the warrants or pre-funded warrants being offered may behigher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you may experience dilution to the extent of the difference betweenthe effective offering price per share of common stock you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our commonstock immediately after this offering. Assuming the sale of 3,012,048 units at a public offering price of $ 1.66 per unit and our nettangible book value as of January 31, 2024, and assuming no sale of any pre-funded units in this offering, no exercise of any of thecommon warrants being offered in this offering, and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payableby us, you will incur immediate dilution in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $0.85 per share. As a result of thedilution to investors purchasing securities in this offering, investors may receive less than the purchase price paid in this offering,if anything, in the event of the liquidation of our company. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a moredetailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you participate in this offering.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceedswe receive from this offering and may not use them effectively.

Our management will have broaddiscretion in the application of the net proceeds we receive in this offering, including for any of the purposes described in the sectionentitled “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whetherour management is using the net proceeds appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use ofour net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our managementto apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business and causethe price of our common stock to decline. Pending their use, we may invest our net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade,interest-bearing securities. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.

An active trading market for our shares may not be sustained.

Although our shares are listedon the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC, the market for our shares has demonstrated varying levels of trading activity. The current level of tradingmay not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market for our shares may impair investors’ ability to sell their sharesat the time they wish to sell them or at a price that they consider reasonable, may reduce the fair market value of their shares and mayimpair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares and may impair our ability to acquire additionalintellectual property assets by using our shares as consideration.

This offering may cause the trading price of our commonstock to decrease.

The number of shares of commonstock underlying the securities we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediatedecrease in the market price of our common stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering. We cannot predictthe effect, if any, that the availability of shares for future sale represented by the pre-funded warrants or common warrants issued inconnection with the offering will have on the market price of our common stock from time to time.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stockcould adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may choose to raise additionalcapital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operatingplans. If additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, or perceptions that those sales couldoccur, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to investors purchasing our common stock in this offering orresult in downward pressure on the price of our common stock, and our ability to raise capital in the future.

11

We have previously receiveda notice from Nasdaq that we were not in compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements. If we are unable to regain compliancewith Nasdaq’s listing requirements, our common stock could be delisted, which could affect our common stock’s market priceand liquidity and reduce our ability to raise capital.

Our common stock is listed for trading on Nasdaq. In order to maintain the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq, we must satisfy Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. On April 30, 2024, we received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market notifying us that the date of April 29, 2024, provided by Nasdaq for the Company to hold an annual meeting to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) lapsed without the Company holding its annual meeting. The Notice further stated unless the Company requests an appeal of the above determination by May 7, 2024, Nasdaq has determined that the Company’s securities will be scheduled for delisting from The Nasdaq Stock Market. On May 3, 2024, we requested an appeal hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel. Such request was granted, and an appeal hearing was scheduled for June 13, 2024. Additionally, we scheduled our annual meeting to be held on June 25, 2024, and filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A on May 14, 2024 with respect to such annual meeting.

We cannot assure you that wewill be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards. Our failure to continue to meet these requirements would result in ourcommon stock being delisted from Nasdaq. We and holders of our securities could be materially adversely impacted if our common stock isdelisted from Nasdaq. In particular:

we may be unable to raise equity capital on acceptable terms or at all;
we may lose the confidence of our customers, which would jeopardize our ability to continue our business as currently conducted;
the price of our common stock will likely decrease as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws;
holders may be unable to sell or purchase our securities when they wish to do so;
we may become subject to stockholder litigation;
we may lose the interest of institutional investors in our common stock;
we may lose media and analyst coverage;
our common stock could be considered a “penny stock,” which would likely limit the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock; and
we would likely lose any active trading market for our common stock, as it may only be traded on one of the over-the-counter markets, if at all.

We may not receive any additional funds upon the exerciseof the common warrants.

Each common warrant has aninitial exercise price of $[*] per share (equal to 100% of the public offering price of each unit sold in this offering), subject toadjustment as described herein , and may also be exercised in certain circ*mstances by way of a cashless exercise, meaning that the holdermay not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise, but instead would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of our commonstock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. Accordingly, we may not receive any additional funds, or any significantadditional funds, upon the exercise of the warrants.

There is no public market for the common warrants or pre-fundedwarrants being offered by us in this offering.

There is no established publictrading market for the common warrants or the pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intendto apply to list the common warrants or the pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized tradingsystem. Without an active market, the liquidity of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants will be limited.

The common warrants included in the units and in the pre-fundedunits are speculative in nature.

12

The common warrants representthe right to acquire shares of common stock at a fixed price. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the commonwarrants may acquire the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants at an initial exercise price of $[*] per shareof common stock (equal to 100% of the public offering price of each unit sold in this offering), subject to adjustment as described herein.Moreover, following this offering, the market value of the common warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the marketvalue of the common warrants will equal or exceed the public offering price. There can be no assurance that the market price of the sharesof common stock will ever equal or exceed the exercise price of the common warrants, and consequently, whether it will ever be profitablefor holders of common warrants to exercise the common warrants.

Except as otherwise setforth in the common warrants and pre-funded warrants, holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants offered hereby will haveno rights as stockholders with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants untilsuch holders exercise their common warrants and pre-funded warrants and acquire our common stock.

Except as otherwise set forthin the common warrants and pre-funded warrants, until holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants acquire shares of ourcommon stock upon exercise thereof, such holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants will have no rights with respect tothe shares of our common stock underlying such warrants, such as voting rights. Upon exercise of the common warrants or the pre-fundedwarrants, as the case may be, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for whichthe record date occurs after the exercise date.

Purchasers who purchaseour securities in this offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement may have rights not available to purchasers that purchasewithout the benefit of a securities purchase agreement.

In addition to rights and remediesavailable to all purchasers in this offering under federal securities and state law, the purchasers that enter into a securities purchaseagreement will also be able to bring claims for breach of contract against us. The ability to pursue a claim for breach of contract providesthose investors with the means to enforce the covenants uniquely available to them under the securities purchase agreement including timelydelivery of shares and indemnification for breach of contract.

Since we do not expectto pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future, investors may be forced to sell their stock in order to obtain a return on theirinvestment.

We do not anticipate declaringor paying in the foreseeable future any cash dividends on our capital stock. Instead, we plan to retain any earnings to finance our operationsand growth plans discussed elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of theircommon stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any return on their investment. As a result,investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

The trading price of ourcommon stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to variousfactors, some of which are beyond our control.

Our share price is highlyvolatile. During the period from June 1, 2023, to May 10, 2024 the closing price of our common stock (on a post-reverse split basis)ranged from a high of $19.11 per share (as adjusted for the reverse split) to a low of $1.33 per share (as adjusted for the reverse split).The stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particularcompanies. As a result of this volatility, you may not be able to sell your common stock at or above the public offering price and youmay lose some or all of your investment.

Our Series B PreferredStock ranks senior to our common stock.

Our Series B Preferred Stockranks, with respect to dividend rights, rights on the distribution of assets on any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolutionor winding up of the affairs of our company, and redemption rights, senior to our common stock and each other class or series of securitiesnow existing or hereafter authorized classified or reclassified, the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or seriesranks on a parity basis with or senior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividend rights, rights on the distribution of assets onany voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of our company, and redemption rights.

For so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, themajority holders of the Series B Preferred Stock (or the Majority Holders) will be entitled to designate one (1) individual to be nominatedto serve as a director (who we refer to as the Series B Preferred Director) on our board of directors (or the Board). At each annual meetingof the stockholders of our company, or at any special meeting called for the purpose of electing directors, the Board shall nominate suchdesignee for election. Unless the Board shall have received from the Majority Holders a written designation by March 1 of each calendaryear of an individual other than the then-sitting Series B Preferred Director, the Board shall nominate the then-sitting Series B PreferredDirector for re-election to the Board. The Series B Preferred Director is subject to any board of directors-related provisions that maybe contained in our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. The Majority Holders, voting as a single class at a meeting called for suchpurpose (or by written consent signed by the Majority Holders in lieu of such a meeting), have the sole right to remove the Series B PreferredDirector from the Board.

The Series B Preferred Director shall be entitled to receive similar compensation, benefits, reimbursem*nt(including of reasonable travel expenses), indemnification and insurance coverage for his or her service as a director of our companyas the other non-employee directors of on the Board. The initial Series B Preferred Director is Mr. James P. Cassidy. As of the date ofthis prospectus, the seat on our Board designated for the Series B Preferred Director is vacant due to Mr. Cassidy’s resignationfrom the Board on January 25, 2024. As a result of their Board appointment right, the Majority Holders could have a disproportionate impacton our governance and operations, which could have an adverse effect on our company.

USE OFPROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $4,290,000 (assuming the sale of all units offered hereby at the assumed public offering price of $1.66 per unit, which represents the closing sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC on May 28,2024, and assuming no issuance of pre-funded warrants), after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and assuming no sale of any pre-funded units offered hereunder. However, because this is a best efforts offering with no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds as a condition to closing, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and net proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and we may not sell all or any of the securities we are offering. As a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds. Based on the assumed offering price set forth above, we estimate that our net proceeds from the sale of 75% or 50% of the units offered in this offering would be approximately $3,127,500 and $1,965,000, respectively, after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We currently intend to use thenet proceeds of this offering for general corporate and working capital purposes and to fund ongoing operations and expansion of our business.We cannot currently allocate specific percentages of the net proceeds to us from this offering that we may use for these purposes andour management will have broad discretion in the allocation of such net proceeds.

DILUTION

If you purchase securitiesin this offering, your ownership interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the assumed public offeringprice per unit and as adjusted, net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering. Tangible assets equalour total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. As of January 31, 2024, our historical net tangible book value was $476,073 or$0.17 per share of common stock. Historical net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets lesstotal liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 31, 2024.

After giving effect to thesale by us in this offering of 3,012,048 units at an assumed public offering price of $1.66 per unit (the closing sale price of our commonstock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC on May 28, 2024), assuming no sale of any pre-funded units in this offering and no exercise ofany of the common warrants being offered in this offering and deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payableby us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of January 31, 2024, would have been $4,766,073, or $0.81 per share of common stock.This amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.64 per share to our existing shareholders and an immediatedilution of $0.85 per share to purchasers of our securities in this offering. We determine dilution per share to investors participatingin this offering by subtracting the as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering from the offering price per sharepaid by investors participating in this offering.

The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

Thefollowing table illustrates this per share dilution:
Assumedpublic offering price per unit $ 1.66
Historicalnet tangible book value per share at January 31, 2024 $ 0.17
Increasein as adjusted net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering $ 0.64
Asadjusted net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this offering $ 0.81
Dilutionper share to investors purchasing securities in this offering $ 0.85

If we only sell 75% or 50% of the maximum offering amount, our as adjustednet tangible book value after this offering would be $3,603,573, or $2,441,073, respectively, and the dilution per share to investorspurchasing securities in this offering would be $0.96 or $1.10, respectively, assuming no pre-funded warrants are issued and no warrantsare exercised, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

The information discussed aboveis illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual public offering price, the actual number of units that we offer in this offering,and other terms of this offering determined at the time of pricing. The foregoing discussion and table assumes no sale of pre-funded units,which if sold, would reduce the number of units that we are offering on a one-for-one basis. In addition, we may choose to raise additionalcapital due to market conditions or strategic considerations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equityor convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

The number of shares of common stock to be outstanding immediately after this offering is based on 2,863,002 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 29, 2024 and excludes:

(1) 357,120 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of 900,000 outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock;

(2) 267,821 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options outstanding, at a weighted average exercise price of $37.74 per share

(3) 205,636 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding, at a weighted average exercise price of $65.19 per share.

(4) 99,732,179 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our Amended and Restated 2020 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan.

on an actual basis; and

on an as adjusted basis, giving effect to the sale of the 3,012,048units (assuming no sale of pre-funded units) in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $1.66 per unit, which represents the closing sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC on May 28, 2024, and an aggregate offering amount of $5,000,000, and assuming no issuance of pre-funded units, after deducting placement agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the subsequent exercise of the common warrants issued pursuant to this offering;

Youshould read this table together with “Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results ofOperation,” as well as our financial statements and related notes and the other financial information, incorporated by referenceinto this prospectus from our SEC filings, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, andour Current Reports on Form 8-K. The information presented in the capitalization table below is unaudited.

As of January 31, 2024

A decrease in the number of units offered by us to 2,259,036 units (resulting in net proceeds of approximately $3,127,500) would decrease cash, decrease stockholders’ equity, and decrease total capitalization on an as adjusted basis by approximately $1,162,500 from the amounts presented in the table above, assuming the assumed offering price of $1.66 per unit remains the same, and after deducting placement agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The Company has not completed its review of the accounting treatment and fair value of the common warrants and pre-funded warrants offered hereby. The table above assumes the common warrants and pre-funded warrants are accounted for within equity. If the Company determines the warrants are to be accounted for as liabilities, the fair value of the warrants will be recognized as a liability and subsequently recorded at fair value each reporting period with the change in fair value recognized within income.

The as adjusted informationdiscussed above is illustrative only and will be adjusted based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offeringdetermined at pricing.

The number of shares of common stock to be outstanding immediately after this offering is based on 2,863,002 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 29, 2024 and excludes:

UnderNasdaq standards, a director is not “independent” unless the Board affirmatively determines that he or she does not have adirect or indirect material relationship with us or any of our subsidiaries. In addition, the director must meet the bright-line testsfor independence set forth by the Nasdaq rules. Our Board has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committeesand the independence of our directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise hisability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. Based on these standards, the Board has determined thatMessrs. Worner, Modi, and Ketankumar Patel are “independent” directors within the meaning of listing rules of the NasdaqStock Market.

Certain Effects of Delaware Law and Certificate of Incorporation andBylaw Provisions

Certain provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as wellas certain provisions of the DGCL, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter, or prevent a tender offer or takeoverattempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid overthe market price of the shares held by stockholders. These provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws includethe items described below.

Special Meetings of Stockholders.Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our Board, the President, Chief Executive Officer, or the Secretary.
No Cumulative Voting.Our Certificate of Incorporation does not include a provision for cumulative voting for directors. Under cumulative voting, a minority stockholder holding a sufficient percentage of a class of shares could be able to ensure the election of one or more directors.
Undesignated Preferred Stock.Because our Board has the power to establish the preferences and rights of the shares of any additional series of Preferred Stock, it may afford holders of any Preferred Stock preferences, powers, and rights, including voting and dividend rights, senior to the rights of holders of our common stock, which could adversely affect the holders of common stock and could discourage a takeover of us even if a change of control of our company would be beneficial to the interests of our stockholders.
Our Officers Beneficially Own a Majority of Our Capital Stock.Our executive officers and sole directors beneficially own more than a majority of our common stock and own all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Accordingly, they are able to control all matters related to our company.

These and other provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporationand Bylaws are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed toencourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our Board. However, these provisions could delay or discouragetransactions involving an actual or potential change in control of us, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receivea premium for their shares over then current prices. Such provisions could also limit the ability of stockholders to remove current managementor approve transactions that stockholders may deem to be in their best interests.

In addition, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL.Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interestedstockholder” for a period of three years after the person became an interested stockholder, unless:

The board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination or other transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder prior to the date of the business combination or other transaction;
Upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, the person owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding, shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers of the corporation and shares issued under which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
on or subsequent to the date the person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination and the stockholders of the corporation authorized the business combination at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales, andother transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interestedstockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within the prior three years did own, 15% or moreof a corporation’s voting stock.

Section 203 of the DGCL could depress our stock price and delay, discourage,or prohibit transactions not approved in advance by our Board, such as takeover attempts that might otherwise involve the payment to ourstockholders of a premium over the market price of our common stock.

The Company also agrees that noIndemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connectionwith the engagement of Placement Agent by the Company or for any other reason, except to the extent that any such liability is found ina final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from suchIndemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

These Indemnification Provisionsshall extend to the following persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”): Placement Agent, its present and formeraffiliated entities, managers, members, officers, employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of thefederal securities laws), and the officers, directors, partners, shareholders, members, managers, employees, legal counsel, agents andcontrolling persons of any of them.

The Company shall not, withoutthe prior written consent of Placement Agent, settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgmentin respect thereof, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimantto all of the Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such claim, and (ii) does not contain anyfactual or legal admission by or with respect to an Indemnified Party or an adverse statement with respect to the character, professionalism,expertise or reputation of any Indemnified Party or any action or inaction of any Indemnified Party.

In order to provide for just andequitable contribution, if a claim for indemnification pursuant to these indemnification provisions is made but it is found in a finaljudgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case,even though the express provisions hereof provide for indemnification in such case, then the Company shall contribute to the Losses towhich any Indemnified Party may be subject (i) in accordance with the relative benefits received by the Company and its shareholders,subsidiaries and affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and (ii) if (and only if) the allocation providedin clause (i) of this sentence is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as to reflect not only the relative benefits, butalso the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements,acts or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any relevant equitable considerations. No person found liable for a fraudulentmisrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for fraudulent misrepresentation. Therelative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company and its shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates shall be deemedto be equal to the aggregate consideration payable or receivable by such parties in connection with the transaction or transactions towhich the Agreement relates relative to the amount of fees actually received by Placement Agent in connection with such transaction ortransactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount contributed by all Indemnified Parties exceed the amount offees previously received by Placement Agent pursuant to the Agreement.

Neither termination nor completionof the Agreement shall affect these Indemnification Provisions which shall remain operative and in full force and effect.

In addition, a determination as to any group statusas contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgatedthereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on thenumber of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed withthe Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Companyor the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, theCompany shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise ofsecurities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which suchnumber of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% (or,upon election by the Holder prior to the issuance of any Warrants, 9.99%) of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediatelyafter giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company,may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitationin no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of sharesof Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Anyincrease in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered tothe Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity withthe terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intendedBeneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to suchlimitation.
