PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights certain information about us, this offering, and selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. For a more complete understanding of the Company and this offering, we encourage you to read and consider the more detailed information in this prospectus, including “Risk Factors” and the financial statements and related notes. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Reliance Global Group, Inc., a Florida corporation and its subsidiaries.

 

Business Overview

 

Reliance Global Group, Inc. (formerly known as Ethos Media Network, Inc.) was incorporated in Florida on August 2, 2013. In September 2018, Reliance Global Holdings, LLC, a related party (“Reliance Holdings”), purchased a controlling interest in the Company. Ethos Media Network, Inc. was renamed Reliance Global Group, Inc. on October 18, 2018.

 

We operate as a company managing assets in the insurance markets, as well as other related sectors. Our focus is to grow the Company by pursuing an aggressive acquisition strategy, initially and primarily focused upon wholesale and retail insurance agencies. We are led and advised by a management team that offers over 100 years of combined business expertise in insurance, real estate and the financial service industry.

 

In the insurance sector, our management has extensive experience acquiring and managing insurance portfolios in several states, as well as developing specialized programs targeting niche markets. Our primary strategy is to identify specific risk to reward arbitrage opportunities and develop these on a national platform, thereby increasing revenues and returns, and then identify and acquire undervalued wholesale and retail insurance agencies with operations in growing or underserved segments, expand and optimize their operations, and achieve asset value appreciation while generating interim cash flows.

 

As part of our growth and acquisition strategy, we are currently in negotiations with several non-affiliated parties and expect to complete a number of material insurance asset transactions throughout the course of 2023 and beyond. As of December 31, 2022,June 30, 2023, we have acquired tennine insurance agencies, including both affiliated and unaffiliated companies. During 2022, the Company acquired multiple insurance entities, most notably, Barra & Associates, LLC., an unaffiliated full-service insurance agency, which we rebranded to RELI Exchange and expanded its footprint nationally.

 

The Company also developed and launched 5MinuteInsure.com (“5MI”), a proprietary direct to consumer InsurTech platform which went live during the summer of 2021. 5MI is a business to consumer website which enables consumers to compare and purchase car and home insurance in a time efficient and effective manner. The platform is currently live in 4446 states and offers coverage with up to 1630 insurance carriers.

 

Over the next 12 months, we plan to expand and grow our footprint and market share both through organic growth, and by expansion through additional acquisitions in various insurance markets.

 

Our competitive advantage includes the ability to:

 

 Scale to compete at a national level.
 Capitalize on the consumer shift to ‘online’ with the personal touch of an agent, as the only InsurTech company with this combination.
 Leverage proprietary agency software and automation to compare carrier prices, for competitive renewal pricing.
 Employ an empowered and scalable insurance agency model.
 Leverage technology that facilitates comparing carriers for the best prices.

 

The RELI Exchange B2B InsurTech platform and partner network for insurance agents and agencies also:

 

 Boast being the only white label insurance brokerage agency – New agents can have a multi-million dollar agency look on day 1, with a full suite of back office support (licensing, compliance, etc).
 Combines the low barriers to entry of an agency network, with state-of-the-art tech.
 Builds on the artificial intelligence and data mining backbone of 5MinuteInsure.com
 Is designed to provide instant and competitive insurance quotes from more than thirty insurance carriers nationwide.
 Reduces back-office burden and expenses by eliminating paperwork.
 Provides agents more time to focus on selling policies.

 

1

In addition, we have a vast mentorship program behind the scenes, to keep sales teams active. Once people are registered, we enroll them in our mentorship program, and coach them to bring new business.

 

RELI Exchange is a complete, private label system where agents have more flexibility in how they choose to brand themselves, compared to competitor platforms that require agents to work under the platform’s brand name. In effect, agents have a greater sense of ownership on our platform, and the feeling that comes with a well-financed agency.

 

Our best-in-class product offerings include the following:

 

 1)An agency partner contract
   
 2)An agent / pro contract
3)Other offerings including natives, working directly for the carriers

 

Our value proposition is that we’re giving people a complete, white label business. Agents have a fast and easy website presence, get contracts with carriers they wouldn’t normally access, and they can get paid for referrals.

 

 

Risks Relating to Our Business

 

We have been expanding our business by acquiring wholesale and retail insurance agencies in select markets in the U.S. In addition, we operate the RELI Exchange and 5MinuteInsure.com, proprietary internet based platforms we developed as business to business or business to consumer portals enabling agents and consumers to compare quotes from multiple carriers and sell and purchase their auto, home and life insurance coverage in a time efficient and effective manner. Our business and ability to execute our business strategy are subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before you decide to buy our common stock. In particular, you should consider the risks discussed in detail in the section entitled “Risk Factors” including but not limited to:

 

 We may experience significant fluctuations in our quarterly and annual results.
   
 We have limited resources and there is significant competition for business combination opportunities. Therefore, we may not be able to acquire other assets or businesses.
   
 We may be unable to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete an acquisition, or for our operations and growth of existing and target business, which could compel us to restructure a potential business transaction or abandon a particular business combination.

2

 

 Our cash and cash equivalents that we use to meet our working capital and operating expense needs are held in deposit accounts that could be adversely affected if the financial institution holding such funds fail.
   
 Our inability to retain or hire qualified employees, as well as the loss of any of our executive officers, could negatively impact our ability to retain existing business and generate new business.
   
 Our growth strategy depends, in part, on the acquisition of other insurance intermediaries, which may not be available on acceptable terms in the future or which, if consummated, may not be advantageous to us.
   
 A cybersecurity attack, or any other interruption in information technology and/or data security and/or outsourcing relationships, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and reputation.
   
 Rapid technological change may require additional resources and time to adequately respond to dynamics, which may adversely affect our business and operating results.
   
 Changes in data privacy and protection laws and regulations, or any failure to comply with such laws and regulations, could adversely affect our business and financial results.
   
 Because our insurance business is highly concentrated in certain states, adverse economic conditions, natural disasters, or regulatory changes in these states could adversely affect our financial condition.
   
 If we fail to comply with the covenants contained in certain of our agreements, our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
   
 Certain of our agreements contain various covenants that limit the discretion of our management in operating our business and could prevent us from engaging in certain potentially beneficial activities.
   
 We may experience increased competition from insurance companies, technology companies and the financial services industry, as well as the shift away from traditional insurance markets.
   
 Risks related to our lack of knowledge in distant geographic markets.
   
 We compete in a highly regulated industry, which may result in increased expenses or restrictions on our operations.
   
 We are subject to a variety of federal, state and international laws and other obligations regarding data protection.
   
 Changes in tax laws could materially affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
   
 Expectations of our company relating to environmental, social and governance factors may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the reasons described in our “Prospectus Summary,” “Use of Proceeds,” and “Risk Factors” sections. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “depends,” “estimate,” “expects,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of those terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain those words. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance or condition and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievement to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

You should read this prospectus, including the section titled “Risk Factors,” completely and with the understanding that our actual results may differ materially from what we expect as expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this prospectus regardless of the time of its delivery or any sale of our common stock. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this prospectus. All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We are registering 155,038 shares of common stock for resale by the selling securityholder. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

However, we expect to receive approximately $7,474,000 in gross proceeds assuming the cash exercise of all of the Prefunded Warrants and the Common Warrants by the selling securityholder to purchase the 897,594 shares of common stock being registered hereby by the selling securityholder at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of common stock and 2,105,264 shares of common stock being registered hereby at an exercise price of $3.55 per share. However, in the event the Prefunded Warrants and Common Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis, we would not expect to receive any gross proceeds from the cash exercise of those warrants. We intend to use any net proceeds from the cash exercise of these warrants for working capital, non-secured debt payments and general corporate purposes.

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock, and we do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. We expect to retain future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future determination to pay dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and any contractual restrictions.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDER

 

We have prepared this prospectus to allow Armistice Capital LLC,Master Fund Ltd., as selling securityholder, to offer for resale, from time to time, up to 3,157,896 shares of our common stock, of which up to 897,594 shares are issuable upon the exercise of 897,594 Prefunded Warrants (as defined below) held by the selling securityholder, up to 2,105,264 shares issuable upon the exercise of 2,105,264 Common Warrants (as defined below) held by the selling securityholder and 155,038 shares of common stock we issued to the selling securityholder (the “Issued Shares”).

 

On March 13, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the selling securityholder, which is an institutional accredited investor (the “Purchase Agreement”), whereby, among other things, the Company issued and sold (i) an aggregate of 155,038 shares of common stock along with accompanying common warrants (the “Common Units”), (ii) prefunded warrants (the “Prefunded Warrants”) that are exercisable into 897,594 shares of common stock (the “Prefunded Warrant Shares”) along with accompanying common warrants (the “Pre-Funded Units”), and (iii) common warrants (the “Common Warrants”) to initially acquire up to 2,105,264 shares of common stock (the “Common Warrant Shares”) (representing 200% of the Common Shares and Prefunded Warrant Shares) in a private placement offering (the “Private Placement”).

 

The aggregate purchase price for the common shares, Prefunded Warrants and the Common Warrants purchased by the investor was equal to (i) $3.80 for each Common Unit purchased, or (ii) $3.799 for each Prefunded Unit purchased, which Prefunded Warrants are exercisable into Prefunded Warrant Shares at the initial Exercise Price (as defined in the Prefunded Warrant) of $0.001 per Prefunded Warrant Share in accordance with the Prefunded Warrant.purchased.

 

Each Prefunded Warrant will be exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share following the issue date until exercised in full. The Prefunded Warrants may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” at the holder’s option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the Prefunded Warrants (the difference between the market price of the underlying shares of common stock and the exercise price of the underlying Prefunded Warrants) to exercise the warrants without the payment of any cash.

 

Each Common Warrant will be exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.55 per share six months following the issue date and will expire five and one-half years from the issue date. In the event that there is no effective registration statement registering the shares underlying the Common Warrants, then the Common Warrants may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” at the holder’s option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the Common Warrants (the difference between the market price of the underlying shares of common stock and the exercise price of the underlying warrants) to exercise the Common Warrants without the payment of any cash.

 

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

 

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

 

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the name of the selling securityholder for whom we are registering shares for resale to the public, and the number of such shares that each such selling securityholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus. Applicable percentages are based on 1,566,0482,126,348 shares of common stock outstanding on March 30,September 7, 2023.

 

Under the terms of the Common Warrants and Prefunded Warrants held by the selling securityholder, the selling securityholder may not exercise any such warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling securityholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of our then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the table below do not reflect this limitation. The selling securityholder may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

 

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

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Board did not approve any options to be issued pursuant to the Plan.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, various employee terminations occurred resulting in option forfeitures of $0 and $70,004 respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the options granted and outstanding had a total fair value of $2,421,960, which will be amortized in future periods through February 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized $178,579 of compensation expense relating to the stock options granted to employees, directors, and consultants. As of December 31, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense totaled $17,166 which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or requisite service period through February 2024.

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value and the exercise price of the shares on December 31, 2022. The market value as of December 31, 2022 was $8.55 based on the closing bid price for December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company determined that the options granted and outstanding had a total fair value of $2,421,960, which will be amortized in future periods through February 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $576,160 of compensation expense relating to the stock options granted to employees, directors, and consultants. As of December 31, 2021, unrecognized compensation expense totaled $195,746 which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or requisite service period through February 2024.

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value and the exercise price of the shares on December 31, 2021. The market value as of December 31, 2021 was $96.60 based on the closing bid price for December 31, 2021.

The Company estimated the fair value of each stock option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Black-Scholes option-pricing models require the Company to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, recipient exercise behavior, and dividend yield. The Company estimated the future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option. The expected term of the options was computed by taking the mid-point between the vesting date and expiration date. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, not accounting for the reverse splits:

Series A Warrants

In conjunction with the Company’s initial public offering, the Company issued 138,000 Series A Warrants which were classified as equity warrants because of provisions, pursuant to the warrant agreement, that permit the holder obtain a fixed number of shares for a fixed monetary amount. The warrants are standalone equity securities that are transferable without the Company’s consent or knowledge. The warrants were recorded at a value per the offering of $0.15. The warrants may be exercised at any point from the effective date until the 5-year anniversary of issuance and are not subject to standard antidilution provisions. After taking into account warrant exercises, there were 113,000 Series A warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Series B Warrants

The Series B Warrants are exercisable commencing on the date of issuance and expire five years from the date of issuance. Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Series B Warrants’ effective exercise price reset to $2.50, subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions). If a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants under the Securities Act.Act is not effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. As of June 30, 2023, there remain 1,331,667 Series B Warrants outstanding.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, net fair value gains and losses recognized for the Series B Warrants were a loss of $1,584,684 and a gain of $2,642,267, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, net fair value gains and losses recognized for the Series B Warrants were gains of $12,322,737 and $24,748,163, respectively, presented in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations. The Series B Warrant liability outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $3,741,984 and $6,384,250 respectively, presented in the warrant liability account on the consolidated balance sheets.

Series C and D Warrants

In January 2022, as a result of the Private Placement and the Medigap Acquisition, the Company received a deficiency notification from Nasdaq indicating violation of Listing Rule 5365(a). As part of its remediation plan, in March 2022, the Company entered into Exchange Agreements with the holders of common stock issued in January 2022. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Company issued 218,462 Series C prepaid warrants in exchange for 218,462 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, as compensation for entering into the Exchange Agreements, the Company issued 81,500 Series D prepaid warrants to the Private Placement investors for no additional consideration.

The Series C and D Warrants are equity classified pursuant to the warrant agreement provisions that permit holders to obtain a fixed number of shares for a fixed monetary amount. The warrants are standalone equity securities that are transferable without the Company’s consent or knowledge. The warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the respective issuance dates and are exercisable at a per share exercise price equal to $0.015.

In May and June 2022, the 218,462 Series C prepaid warrants were converted for 218,462 shares of the Company’s common stock for a conversion price of $0.015. Through December 31, 2022, the Company has received payments of $1,336 for these issuances.

In July 2022, the 81,500 Series D prepaid warrants were converted into 81,472 shares of the Company’s common stock for a conversion price of $0.015 through both cash and cashless exercises. Proceeds of $795 were received in conjunction with the cash exercise.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The Florida Business Corporation Act (the “FBCA”) provides that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer against liability if the director or officer acted in good faith, the director or officer acted in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may not indemnify a director or an officer except for expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, where such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation.

 

The FBCA provides that a corporation must indemnify a director or officer who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which the individual was a party because he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation against expenses incurred by the individual in connection with the proceeding.

 

A corporation may, before final disposition of a proceeding, advance funds to pay for or reimburse expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding by a director or an officer if the director or officer delivers to the corporation a signed written undertaking of the director or officer to repay any funds advanced if such director or officer is not entitled to indemnification.

 

Our articles of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws provide that we have the power to indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to the full extent permitted by the FBCA if in the judgment of the entire board of directors (excluding from such majority any director under consideration for indemnification), the criteria set forth in Sec. 607.0851(1) or (2) of the FBCA have been met.

 

These indemnification provisions may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of our officers, directors and other corporate agents for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, 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.

 

We have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was one of our directors or officers, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other business against any liability asserted against the person or incurred by the person in any of these capacities, or arising out of the person’s fulfilling one of these capacities, and related expenses, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify the person against the claim under the provisions of the FBCA.

 

If the FBCA Law is amended to expand further the indemnification permitted to indemnitees, then we shall indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by the FBCA, as so amended.

 

11

Our obligation to provide indemnification under our bylaws, which will be in effect upon the consummation of this offering, shall be offset to the extent of any other source of indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance coverage under a policy maintained by us or any other person.

 

Our bylaws, which will be in effect upon the consummation of this offering, shall be deemed to be a contract between us and each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that person is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of ours, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at our request, as a director, officer or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including any employee benefit plan, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, at any time while this by-law is in effect, and any repeal or modification thereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts.

 

The indemnification provision of our bylaws does not affect directors’ responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 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 of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered herewith, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

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

 

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

 

(i) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
