Although our forward-looking statements reflect the good faith judgment of our management, these statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by us.

You should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference herein could substantially harm our business, operating results and financial condition and that if any of these events occurs, it could adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities.

Before you decide whether to purchase shares of our common stock, you should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the risks of investing in our securities discussed under the section of this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors” and similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

The Company

 

Odyssey was formed as a publicly held holding company with an emphasis on the development and acquisition of medical products and health related technologies. We are focused on building and acquiring assets in areas that have an identified technological advantage and a substantial market opportunity within significant target markets across the globe.

 

The corporate mission is to create or acquire distinct products, intellectual property, and technologies with an emphasis on acquisition targets that will generate positive cash flow. Our strategic mission is to deliver financial results, which yield high rates of returns for our shareholders and partners. The Company’s leadership team has significant experience and capabilities to further refine the technologies and submit to the appropriate regulatory agencies for marketing approval.

 

Our business model is to develop or acquire unique medical related products, engage third parties to manufacture such products and then distribute the products through various distribution channels, including third parties. The Company has development projects in three different life saving technologies; the CardioMap® heart monitoring and screening device, the Save A Life choking rescue device and a unique neurosteroid drug compound intended to treat rare brain disorders.

 

We intend to acquire other technologies and assets and plan to be a trans-disciplinary product development company involved in the discovery, development and commercialization of products and technologies that may be applied over various medical markets.

 

We intend to license, improve and/or develop our products and identify and select distribution channels. We intend to establish agreements with distributors to get products to market quickly as well as to undertake and engage in our own direct marketing efforts. We will determine the most effective method of distribution for each unique product that we include in our portfolio.

 

We intend to engage third party research and development firms who specialize in the creation of medical products to assist us in the development. We intend to apply for trademarks and patents as we develop proprietary products.

 

For a complete description of our business, financial condition, results of operations and other important information, we refer you to our filings with the SEC that are incorporated by reference in this Annual Report, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2020 filed on November 16, 2020 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended October 31, 2019, January 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, as amended by the filings of Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the periods ended October 31, 2019, January 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020 filed and with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2020.

RISK FACTORS

 

Before you make a decision to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks described below, together with other information in this prospectus and the information incorporated by reference herein, including those risks identified under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on November 13, 2020, and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended October 31, 2019, January 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, as filed with the SEC on December 6, 2019, March 12, 2020 and June 4, 2020, respectively, and as amended by the filings of Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the periods ended October 31, 2019, January 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020 filed and with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2020, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus and which may be amended, supplemented or superseded by other reports that we subsequently file with the SEC. If any of the following events actually occur, our business, operating results, prospects or financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations and could result in a complete loss of your investment. Please also read carefully the section entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

Risks Related to This Offering

 

The sale or issuance of our common stock to Lincoln Park may cause dilution and the sale of the shares of common stock acquired by Lincoln Park, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our common stock to fall.

 

On August 14, 2020, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park and on that date we sold 602,422 shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park in an initial purchase under the Purchase Agreement for a total purchase price of $250,000. We also issued 793,802 shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase our common stock under the Purchase Agreement. The remaining shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement may be sold by us to Lincoln Park at our discretion from time to time over a 36-month period commencing after the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including that the SEC has declared effective the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and that such registration statement remains effective. The purchase price for the shares that we may sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the price of our common stock. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of such shares may cause the trading price of our common stock to fall.

 

Subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any future sales of our shares to Lincoln Park. Additional sales of our common stock, if any, to Lincoln Park will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to Lincoln Park all, some, or none of the additional shares of our common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If and when we do sell shares to Lincoln Park, after Lincoln Park has acquired the shares, Lincoln Park may resell all or some of those shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion. Therefore, sales to Lincoln Park by us could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

 

We may require additional financing to sustain our operations, without which we may not be able to continue operations, and the terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact our stockholders.

 

We may direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to $10,000,000 worth of shares of our common stock under our agreement over a 36-month period generally in amounts up to 200,000 shares of our common stock (such purchases, “Regular Purchases”), which may be increased to up to 100,000 shares of our common stock depending on the market price of our common stock at the time of sale, and, Lincoln Park’s committed obligation under any Regular Purchase shall not exceed $50,000 unless the median aggregate dollar value of the volume of shares of common stock during the 20 consecutive trading day period ending on the date of the applicable Regular Purchase equals or exceeds $100,000, in which case Lincoln Park’s committed obligation under such single Regular Purchase shall not exceed $500,000.

 

 

 

 5 

 

 

The extent we rely on Lincoln Park as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. If obtaining sufficient funding from Lincoln Park were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive, we will need to secure another source of funding in order to satisfy our working capital needs. Even if we sell all $10,250,000 under the Purchase Agreement to Lincoln Park, we may still need additional capital to finance our future production plans and working capital needs, and we may have to raise funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Depending on the type and the terms of any financing we pursue, stockholders’ rights and the value of their investment in our common stock could be reduced. A financing could involve one or more types of securities including common stock, convertible debt or warrants to acquire common stock. These securities could be issued at or below the then prevailing market price for our common stock. In addition, if we issue secured debt securities, the holders of the debt would have a claim to our assets that would be prior to the rights of stockholders until the debt is paid. Interest on these debt securities would increase costs and negatively impact operating results. If the issuance of new securities results in diminished rights to holders of our common stock, the market price of our common stock could be negatively impacted.

 

Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from our sale of shares of common stock to Lincoln Park, you may not agree with how we use the proceeds and the proceeds may not be invested successfully.

 

Our management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from our sale of shares of common stock to Lincoln Park, and we could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of commencement of this offering. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of those net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest those net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for us. The failure of our management to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

 

An active trading market for our common stock may not be sustained.

 

Although our common stock is listed on the OTCQB Market, the market for our shares has demonstrated varying levels of trading activity. Furthermore, the current level of trading may not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market for our common stock may impair investors’ ability to sell their shares at 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 may impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares and may impair our ability to acquire additional intellectual property assets by using our shares as consideration.

 

We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock and, accordingly, stockholders must rely on stock appreciation for any return on their investment.

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and limitations under applicable law, and will depend on various factors, including our operating results, financial condition, future prospects and any other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. You should not rely on an investment in our company if you require dividend income from your investment in our company. The success of your investment will likely depend entirely upon any future appreciation of the market price of our common stock, which is uncertain and unpredictable. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value.

 

We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt our operations.

 

Our business has been and could continue to be adversely impacted by the effects of Novel Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) or other epidemics. A public health epidemic, including COVID-19 poses the risk that we or our employees, contractors, suppliers, and other partners may be prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the virus and the actions to contain its impact.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by Lincoln Park. We will receive no proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by Lincoln Park in this offering. We received $250,000 from Lincoln Park as its initial purchase pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and we may receive up to an additional $10.0 million in gross proceeds under the Purchase Agreement from any sales we make to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement after the date of this prospectus. We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of our common stock to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement would be up to $10.25 million over an approximately 36-month period, assuming that we sell the full amount of our common stock that we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, and after other estimated fees and expenses. See “Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.

 

Any proceeds from the Lincoln Park that we receive under the Purchase Agreement are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, capital expenditures, working capital and general and administrative expenses. As the remainder of the proceeds are intended to be used for working capital, research and development and operational expenses, some of such proceeds may be used from time to time to pay officer and director compensation. As we are unable to predict the timing or amount of potential issuances of all of the additional shares issuable to the Purchase Agreement, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds that we will have from the sale of such additional shares. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds. We may use the proceeds for purposes that are not contemplated at the time of this offering. It is possible that no additional shares will be issued under the Purchase Agreement.

 

We will incur all costs associated with this prospectus and the registration statement of which it is a part.

 

MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDEND POLICY

 

Our common stock is traded on the OTCQB Market under the symbol “ODYY.” The last reported sale price of our common stock on November 20, 2020 on the OTCQB Market was $$0.171 per share. As of November 20, 2020, there were 124 holders of record of our common stock.

 

We cannot provide any assurance that we will declare or pay cash dividends on our common stock. Any future determination to declare cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our directors, officers and all employees. It may be obtained free of charge by writing to Odyssey Group International, Inc., Attn: Chief Executive Officer, 2372 Morse Ave, Irvine, CA 92614.

 

Board of Directors

 

Our board of directors currently consists of five members. Our bylaws permit our board of directors to establish by resolution the authorized number of directors, and five directors are currently authorized.

Director Independence

 

Under the rules of the national securities exchanges, a majority of a listed company’s board of directors must be comprised of independent directors, and each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees must be independent as well. Under the same rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if that company’s board of directors affirmatively determines that such director has no material relationship with that company, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with that company. We evaluate independence by the standards for director independence established by applicable laws, rules, and listing standards including, without limitation, the standards for independent directors established by The New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the NASDAQ National Market, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Subject to some exceptions, these standards generally provide that a director will not be independent if (a) the director is, or in the past three years has been, an employee of ours; (b) a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, an executive officer of ours; (c) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family has received more than $120,000 per year in direct compensation from us other than for service as a director (or for a family member, as a non-executive employee); (d) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed in a professional capacity by our independent public accountants, or has worked for such firm in any capacity on our audit; (e) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed as an executive officer of a company where one of our executive officers serves on the compensation committee; or (f) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is an executive officer of a company that makes payments to, or receives payments from, us in an amount which, in any twelve-month period during the past three years, exceeds the greater of $1,000,000 or two percent of that other company’s consolidated gross revenues.  Based on these standards, we have determined that our director is not an independent director.

 

Our board of directors has determined Messrs. Casey, Conroy and Gandolfo are “independent directors” as defined in the NASDAQ listing standards and applicable SEC rules.

 

In addition, following the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this report is a part, the members of our audit committee must satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Rule 10A-3. In order to be considered to be independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, no member of the audit committee may, other than in his capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the company or any of its subsidiaries or (2) be an affiliated person of the company or any of its subsidiaries.

 

Committees of our Board of Directors

 

In October 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company established audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance, committees. Our Board of Directors currently consists of five members, three of whom are considered independent.

 

Audit Committee. We established an audit committee, which consists of three independent directors. The audit committee's duties are to recommend to the Company's board of directors, the engagement of independent auditors to audit our financial statements and to review its accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee reviews the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee is composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles. Mr. Gandolfo is the Audit Chair and qualifies as a financial expert as defined by SEC rules and Messrs. Casey and Conroy serve as members. There were three audit committee meetings and all members were in attendance.

 

Compensation Committee. We established a compensation committee, which consists of three independent directors. The compensation committee responsible for determining executive and director compensation. In considering and determining executive and director compensation, our compensation committee will be responsible for reviewing compensation that is paid by other similar public companies to its officers and will take that into consideration in determining the compensation to be paid to the Company’s officers. The compensation committee determines and approves any non-cash compensation to any employee. We have not and do not intend to engage consultants in determining or recommending the compensation to our officers or employees. Mr. Conroy is the Compensation Committee Chair and Messrs. Casey and Gandolfo serve as members. The Committee did not meet in 2020.

 

 

 

 10 

 

 

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. We established a corporate governance and nominating committee, which consists of three independent directors. The nominating committee is a committee of the Company established to support the board of directors in fulfilling its fiduciary duties to appoint the best-qualified candidates for the board of directors, board president-elect and CEO positions. Mr. Casey is the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Chair and Messrs. Conroy and Gandolfo serve as members. The Committee did not meet in 2020.

THE LINCOLN PARK TRANSACTION

 

General

 

On August 14, 2020, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park, which we refer to in this prospectus as the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from us up to an aggregate of $10,250,000 of our common stock (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the Purchase Agreement. Also on August 14, 2020, we entered into a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park, which we refer to in this prospectus as the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the registration statement that includes this prospectus to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, the shares of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.

 

This prospectus covers the resale by the Lincoln Park of 20,065,166 shares of our common stock, comprised of: (i) 793,802 shares that we already issued to Lincoln Park as Commitment Shares for making the commitment under the Purchase Agreement, (ii) 602,422 shares that we sold to Lincoln Park for $250,000 on August 14, 2020 as Initial Purchase Shares under the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) an additional 18,668,942 shares we may issue to Lincoln Park in the future under the Purchase Agreement, if and when we sell shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.

 

Other than 793,802 Commitment Shares that we have already issued to Lincoln Park pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement as consideration for its commitment to purchase shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement, and 602,422 Initial Purchase Shares issued to Lincoln Park for its initial $250,000 purchase of common stock on August 14, 2020, we do not have the right to commence any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement until all of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement have been satisfied, including that the SEC has declared effective the registration statement that includes this prospectus registering the shares that will be issued and sold to Lincoln Park, which we refer to in this prospectus as the Commencement. Thereafter, we may, from time to time and at our sole discretion for a period of 36-months, on any business day that we select on which the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $0.10 (subject to adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction as provided in the Purchase Agreement), direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to 100,000 shares of common stock, which amounts may be increased depending on the market price of our common stock at the time of sale, which we refer to in this prospectus as “regular purchases.” In addition, at our discretion, Lincoln Park has committed to purchase other “accelerated amounts” and/or “additional accelerated amounts” under certain circumstances. We will control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park. The purchase price of the shares that may be sold to Lincoln Park in regular purchases under the Purchase Agreement will be based on an agreed upon fixed discount to the market price of our common stock immediately preceding the time of sale as computed under the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price per share will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. We may at any time in our sole discretion terminate the Purchase Agreement without fee, penalty or cost upon one business day notice. There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement, other than a prohibition on our entering into certain types of transactions that are defined in the Purchase Agreement as “Variable Rate Transactions.” Lincoln Park may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

 

As of November 23, 2020, there were 90,570,202 shares of our common stock outstanding, of which 67,770,202 shares were held by non-affiliates, including the 1,396,224 shares that we have already issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement. Although the Purchase Agreement provides that we may sell up to an aggregate of $10,250,000 of our common stock to Lincoln Park, only 20,065,166 shares of our common stock are being offered under this prospectus to Lincoln Park, which represents the 1,396,224 shares that we have already issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement and 18,668,942 additional shares which may be issued to Lincoln Park in the future under the Purchase Agreement, if and when we sell shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement. Depending on the market prices of our common stock at the time we elect to issue and sell shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, we may need to register for resale under the Securities Act additional shares of our common stock in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the $10,250,000 total commitment available to us under the Purchase Agreement. If all of the 20,065,166 shares offered by Lincoln Park under this prospectus were issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, such shares would represent approximately 18.4% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding and approximately 23.2% of the total number of outstanding shares held by non-affiliates, in each case as of the date hereof. If we elect to issue and sell more than the 20,065,166 shares offered under this prospectus to Lincoln Park, which we have the right, but not the obligation, to do, we must first register for resale under the Securities Act any such additional shares, which could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares ultimately offered for resale by Lincoln Park is dependent upon the number of shares we sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

 

 13 

 

 

The Purchase Agreement also prohibits us from directing Lincoln Park to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our common stock then beneficially owned by Lincoln Park and its affiliates, would result in Lincoln Park and its affiliates having beneficial ownership, at any single point in time, of more than 4.99% of the then total outstanding shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder, which limitation we refer to as the Beneficial Ownership Cap.

 

Issuances of our common stock in this offering will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing stockholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing stockholders will be diluted as a result of any such issuance. Although the number of shares of common stock that our existing stockholders own will not decrease, the shares owned by our existing stockholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares after any such issuance to Lincoln Park.

 

Purchase of Shares Under the Purchase Agreement

 

Under the Purchase Agreement, upon Commencement, on any business day that we select on which the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $0.10 (subject to adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction as provided in the Purchase Agreement), we may direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to 100,000 shares of our common stock in a regular purchase on such business day, which is referred to as a Regular Purchase in this prospectus, provided, however, that (i) the Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 150,000 shares, provided that the closing sale price of our common stock is not below $1.00 on the purchase date and (ii) the Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 200,000 shares, provided that the closing sale price of our common stock is not below $1.50 on the purchase date (such share amount limitation, the “Regular Purchase Share Limit”). In each case, Lincoln Park’s maximum commitment in any single Regular Purchase may not exceed $50,000 unless the median aggregate dollar value of the volume of shares of common stock during the 20 consecutive trading day period ending on the date of the applicable Regular Purchase equals or exceeds $100,000, in which case Lincoln Park’s committed obligation under such single Regular Purchase shall not exceed $500,000. The Regular Purchase Share Limit is subject to proportionate adjustment in the event of a reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction; provided, that if after giving effect to such full proportionate adjustment, the adjusted Regular Purchase Share Limit would preclude us from requiring Lincoln Park to purchase common stock at an aggregate purchase price equal to or greater than $75,000 in any single Regular Purchase, then the Regular Purchase Share Limit will not be fully adjusted, but rather the Regular Purchase Share Limit for such Regular Purchase shall be adjusted as specified in the Purchase Agreement, such that, after giving effect to such adjustment, the Regular Purchase Share Limit will be equal to (or as close as can be derived from such adjustment without exceeding) $75,000.

 

The purchase price per share for each such Regular Purchase will be equal to the lower of:

 

·the lowest sale price for our common stock on the purchase date of such shares; and

 

·the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing sale prices for our common stock during the 12 consecutive business days ending on the business day immediately preceding the purchase date of such shares.

 

In addition to Regular Purchases described above, we may also direct Lincoln Park, on any business day on which we have properly submitted a Regular Purchase notice directing Lincoln Park to purchase the maximum number of shares of our common stock that we are then permitted to include in a single Regular Purchase notice and the closing price of our common stock on such business day is not less than $0.10 per share (subject to adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction as provided in the Purchase Agreement), to purchase an additional amount of our common stock, which we refer to as an Accelerated Purchase, not to exceed the lesser of:

 

·30% of the aggregate shares of our common stock traded during all or, if certain trading volume or market price thresholds specified in the Purchase Agreement are crossed on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date, which is defined as the next business day following the purchase date for the corresponding Regular Purchase, the portion of the normal trading hours on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date prior to such time that any one of such thresholds is crossed, which period of time on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date we refer to as the Accelerated Purchase Termination Time; and

 

·three times the number of purchase shares purchased pursuant to the corresponding Regular Purchase.

 

 

 

 14 

 

 

The purchase price per share for each such Accelerated Purchase will be equal to 93% of the lower of:

 

·the volume weighted average price of our common stock during the Accelerated Purchase Termination Time on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date; and

 

·the closing sale price of our common stock on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date.

 

We may also direct Lincoln Park, not later than 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, on a business day on which an Accelerated Purchase has been completed and all of the shares to be purchased thereunder (and under the corresponding Regular Purchase) have been properly delivered to Lincoln Park in accordance with the Purchase Agreement prior to such time on such business day, and provided that the closing price of our common stock on the business day immediately preceding such business day is not less than $0.10 per share (subject to adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction as provided in the Purchase Agreement), to purchase an additional amount of our common stock, which we refer to as an Additional Accelerated Purchase, of up to the lesser of:

 

·30% of the aggregate shares of our common stock traded during a certain portion of the normal trading hours on such Accelerated Purchase date as determined in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, which period of time we refer to as the Additional Accelerated Purchase Termination Time; and

 

·three times the number of purchase shares purchased pursuant to the Regular Purchase corresponding to the Accelerated Purchase that was completed on such Accelerated Purchase date on which an Additional Accelerated Purchase notice was properly received.

 

We may, in our sole discretion, submit multiple Additional Accelerated Purchase notices to Lincoln Park prior to 1:00 p.m., Eastern time, on a single Accelerated Purchase date, provided that all prior Accelerated Purchases and Additional Accelerated Purchases (including those that have occurred earlier on the same day) have been completed and all of the shares to be purchased thereunder (and under the corresponding Regular Purchase) have been properly delivered to Lincoln Park in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and the closing sale price of our common stock on the business day immediately preceding the delivery of multiple Additional Accelerated Purchase notices is greater than $0.10.

 

The purchase price per share for each such Additional Accelerated Purchase will be equal to 93% of the lower of:

 

·the volume weighted average price of our common stock during the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase Termination Time on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date; and

 

·the closing sale price of our common stock on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date.

 

In the case of the Initial Purchase, Regular Purchases, Accelerated Purchases and Additional Accelerated Purchases, the purchase price per share will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute the purchase price.

 

Other than as described above, there are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement, and we will control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park.

 

Events of Default

 

Events of default under the Purchase Agreement include the following:

 

·the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order), or any required prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus are unavailable for the resale by Lincoln Park of our common stock offered hereby, and such lapse or unavailability continues for a period of 10 consecutive business days or for more than an aggregate of 30 business days in any 365-day period;

 

 

 

 15 

 

 

·suspension by our principal market of our common stock from trading for a period of one business day;

 

·the de-listing of our common stock from the OTCQB Markets, our principal market, provided our common stock is not immediately thereafter trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the NYSE American, the NYSE Arca or the OTC Bulletin Board (or nationally recognized successor thereto);

 

·the failure of our transfer agent to issue to Lincoln Park shares of our common stock within two business days after the applicable date on which Lincoln Park is entitled to receive such shares;

 

·any breach of the representations or warranties or covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement that has or could have a material adverse effect on us and, in the case of a breach of a covenant that is reasonably curable, that is not cured within five business days;

 

·any voluntary or involuntary participation or threatened participation in insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings by or against us;

 

·a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against us in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian for us or for all or substantially all of our property, or (iii) orders the liquidation of us or our subsidiaries;

 

·the failure to be insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as reasonably prudent and customary for companies engaged in the businesses in which we and our subsidiaries are engaged, at a cost that would not materially and adversely affect the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business or operations of us and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or

 

·if at any time we are not eligible to transfer our common stock electronically as DWAC shares.

 

Lincoln Park does not have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement upon any of the events of default set forth above. During an event of default, all of which are outside of Lincoln Park’s control, we may not direct Lincoln Park to purchase any shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement.

 

Our Termination Rights

 

We have the unconditional right, at any time, for any reason and without any payment or liability to us, to give notice to Lincoln Park to terminate the Purchase Agreement. In the event of bankruptcy proceedings by or against us, the Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate without action of any party.

 

No Short-Selling or Hedging by Lincoln Park

 

Lincoln Park has agreed that neither it nor any of its affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of our common stock during any time prior to the termination of the Purchase Agreement.

 

Prohibitions on Variable Rate Transactions

 

There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement other than a prohibition on entering into a “Variable Rate Transaction,” as defined in the Purchase Agreement.

Effect of Performance of the Purchase Agreement on Our Stockholders

 

All 20,065,166 shares registered in this offering which have been or may be issued or sold by us to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement are expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to 36-months commencing on the date that the registration statement including this prospectus becomes effective. The sale by Lincoln Park of a significant amount of shares registered in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile. Sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park, if any, will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to Lincoln Park all, some or none of the additional shares of our common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If and when we do sell shares to Lincoln Park, after Lincoln Park has acquired the shares, Lincoln Park may resell all, some or none of those shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion. Therefore, sales to Lincoln Park by us under the Purchase Agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence of our arrangement with Lincoln Park may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any additional sales of our shares to Lincoln Park and the Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we have the right, but not the obligation, to direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to $10,250,000 of our common stock, which includes the $250,000 initial purchase of shares following execution of the Purchase Agreement. Depending on the price per share at which we sell our common stock to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we may need to sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement more shares of our common stock than are offered under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the $10,250,000 total commitment available to us under the Purchase Agreement. If we choose to do so, we must first register for resale under the Securities Act such additional shares of our common stock, which could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares ultimately offered for resale by Lincoln Park under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares we direct Lincoln Park to purchase under the Purchase Agreement.

 

On August 13, 2020, our board of directors approved the issuance of 1,396,224 shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement and approved the reservation of up to an additional 18,668,942 shares for the future issuance of up to $10,000,000 worth of shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement. We would seek additional board of director approval before agreeing to any increase in the value of the shares of common stock we may issue to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement and any such increase would require us and Lincoln Park to enter into a new purchase agreement.

 

The following table sets forth the amount of gross proceeds we would receive from Lincoln Park from our sale of shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement at varying purchase prices:

$1.50    6,666,667    8.3%   $10,000,000 
(1)       Although the Purchase Agreement provides that we may sell up to $10,250,000 of our common stock to Lincoln Park, we are only registering 20,065,166 shares under this prospectus, including 793,802 shares issued to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee and 602,422 shares already sold to Lincoln Park for $250,000 as an initial purchase, which leaves a maximum of 18,668,942 additional shares to be issued for future purchases. Accordingly, depending on the assumed average price per share, we may or may not be able to ultimately sell to Lincoln Park a number of shares of our common stock with a total value of $10,000,000.
(2)       The numerator is based on the number of shares issuable at the corresponding assumed purchase price as set forth in the adjacent column plus the 1,396,224 shares already owned by Lincoln Park. The denominator is based on 90,570,202 shares outstanding as of November 23, 2020 plus the number of shares set forth in the adjacent column. The table does not give effect to the prohibition contained in the Purchase Agreement that prevents us from selling to Lincoln Park the number of shares such that, after giving effect to such sale, Lincoln Park and its affiliates would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock. Assuming the closing stock price of $0.17 per share on November 20, 2020 and the 4.99% limitation mentioned above, the total number of shares we could sell to Lincoln Park would be 3,287,263 for total proceeds of $558,834.
(3)       The closing sale price of our shares on November 20, 2020.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

The selling stockholder may, from time to time, offer and sell any or all of the shares of our common stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus. When we refer to the “selling stockholder” in this prospectus, we mean Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC and their respective pledgees, donees, permitted transferees, assignees, successors and others who later come to hold any of the selling stockholder’s 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 stockholder for whom we are registering shares for sale to the public, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder prior to this offering, the total number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus and the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholder will beneficially own after this offering. The percentages in the table below reflect the shares beneficially owned by the selling stockholder as a percentage of the 90,570,202 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 23, 2020, adjusted as required by rules promulgated by the SEC. These rules attribute beneficial ownership of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible securities (options and restricted stock units) or upon exercise of warrants that are convertible or exercisable, as applicable, either immediately or on or before the date that is 60 days after November 23, 2020. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such convertible securities or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as noted below, the selling stockholder does not have, or within the past three years has not had, any material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates and the selling stockholder is not or was not affiliated with registered broker-dealers.

 

Based on the information provided to us by the selling stockholder, assuming that the selling stockholder sell all of the shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them that have been registered by us and does not acquire any additional shares during the offering, the selling stockholder will not own any shares other than those appearing in the column entitled “Beneficial Ownership After This Offering.” We cannot advise you as to whether the selling stockholder will in fact sell any or all of such shares of common stock. In addition, the selling stockholder 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 of our common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which it provided the information set forth in the table below.

(2)Josh Scheinfeld and Jonathan Cope, the Managing Members of Lincoln Park Capital, LLC, the manager of the selling stockholder, are deemed to be beneficial owners of all of the ordinary shares owned by the selling stockholder. Messrs. Cope and Scheinfeld have shared voting and investment power over the ordinary shares being offered under this prospectus. Neither Lincoln Park Capital, LLC, nor the selling stockholder, is a licensed broker-dealer or an affiliate of a licensed broker-dealer.

 

(3)As of the date of this prospectus, 1,396,224 shares of our common stock have been acquired by Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, consisting of 793,802 shares we issued to Lincoln Park as Commitment Shares and 602,422 shares of common stock as Initial Purchase Shares. In accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act, we have excluded from the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned prior to the offering all of the additional ordinary shares that we may issue and sell to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement from and after Commencement, because the issuance and sale of such ordinary shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement is solely at our discretion and is subject to certain conditions, the satisfaction of all of which are outside of Lincoln Park’s control, including the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part becoming and remaining effective under the Securities Act. Furthermore, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, issuances and sales of ordinary shares to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement are subject to certain limitations on the amounts we may sell to Lincoln Park at any time, including the Beneficial Ownership Cap. See the description under the heading “The Lincoln Park Transaction” for more information about the Purchase Agreement.

 

(4)Calculated by dividing (i) the total number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by Lincoln Park on November 23, 2020, which pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (A) consists of the 793,802 Commitment Shares issued to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee for making the commitment under the Purchase Agreement and the 602,422 Initial Purchase Shares already sold to Lincoln Park on August 14, 2020 for a total purchase price of $250,000 in an initial purchase under the Purchase Agreement, and (B) excludes the 18,668,942 additional shares which we may sell to Lincoln Park from time to time after Commencement under the Purchase Agreement, by (ii) the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of November 23, 2020, which includes the 793,802 Commitment Shares and the 602,422 Initial Purchase Shares referred to in clause (i)(A) above.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

An aggregate of up to 20,065,166 shares of our common stock may be offered by this prospectus by Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The common stock may be sold or distributed from time to time by Lincoln Park or A.G.P. directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The sale of the common stock offered by this prospectus could be effected in one or more of the following methods:

 

·ordinary brokers’ transactions;

 

·transactions involving cross or block trades;

 

·through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents;

 

·“at the market” into an existing market for the common stock;

 

·in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents;

 

·in privately negotiated transactions; or

 

·any combination of the foregoing.

 

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

 

Lincoln Park is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act.

 

Lincoln Park has informed us that it intends to use an unaffiliated broker-dealer to effectuate all sales, if any, of the common stock that it may purchase from us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Such sales will be made at prices and at terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price. Each such unaffiliated broker-dealer will be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Lincoln Park has informed us that each such broker-dealer will receive commissions from Lincoln Park that will not exceed customary brokerage commissions.

 

Brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the shares as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from Lincoln Park and/or purchasers of the common stock for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent. The compensation paid to a particular broker-dealer may be less than or in excess of customary commissions. Neither we nor Lincoln Park can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive. We know of no existing arrangements between Lincoln Park or any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares offered by this prospectus. At the time a particular offer of shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed that will set forth the names of any agents, underwriters or dealers and any compensation from Lincoln Park, and any other required information.

 

We will pay the expenses incident to the registration, offering, and sale of the shares to Lincoln Park. We have agreed to indemnify Lincoln Park and certain other persons against certain liabilities in connection with the offering of shares of common stock offered hereby, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. Lincoln Park has agreed to indemnify us against liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from certain written information furnished to us by Lincoln Park specifically for use in this prospectus or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities.

 

 

 

 19 

 

 

Lincoln Park has represented to us that at no time prior to the Purchase Agreement has it or its agents, representatives or affiliates engaged in or effected, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, any short sale (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of our common stock or any hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to our common stock. Lincoln Park has agreed that during the term of the Purchase Agreement, it, its agents, representatives or affiliates will not enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any of the foregoing transactions.

 

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

 

This offering will terminate on the date that all shares offered by this prospectus have been sold by Lincoln Park.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the Over the Counter Venture (OTCQB) exchange under the trading symbol “ODYY.”

Common Stock

 

Dividends. Each share of our common stock is entitled to receive an equal dividend, if one is declared. We cannot provide any assurance that we will declare or pay cash dividends on our common stock in the future. Any future determination to declare cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Our board of directors may determine it to be necessary to retain future earnings (if any) to finance our growth. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on November 13, 2020, and “Dividend Policy.”

 

Liquidation. If our company is liquidated, then assets that remain (if any) after the creditors are paid and the owners of preferred stock receive liquidation preferences (as applicable) will be distributed to the owners of our common stock pro rata.

 

Voting Rights. Each share of our common stock entitles the owner to one vote. All matters are decided by majority vote other than as required by law and the election of directors. For example, under Nevada law, two-thirds of the voting power of our issued and outstanding stock is required to remove a director, and 60% of the voting power of disinterested shareholders may be required in certain circumstances to approve certain interested transactions. A plurality of votes is sufficient to elect a director at a meeting; election by written consent to fill a vacancy, however, requires a majority vote. There is no cumulative voting.

 

Preemptive Rights. Owners of our common stock have no preemptive rights. We may sell shares of our common stock to third parties without first offering such shares to current stockholders.

 

Redemption Rights. We do not have the right to buy back shares of our common stock except in extraordinary transactions, such as mergers and court approved bankruptcy reorganizations. Owners of our common stock do not ordinarily have the right to require us to buy their common stock. We do not have a sinking fund to provide assets for any buy back.

 

Conversion Rights. Shares of our common stock cannot be converted into any other kind of stock except in extraordinary transactions, such as mergers and court approved bankruptcy reorganizations.

 

Nonassessability. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue “blank check” preferred stock. The board of directors may divide this preferred stock into series and establish the rights, preferences and privileges thereof. The board of directors may, without prior stockholder approval, issue any or all of the shares of this preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the relative voting power or other rights of our common stock. Preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a takeover or other change in control of our company. Issuances of preferred stock in the future could have a dilutive effect on our common stock. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors— Risks Relating to Investors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on November 16, 2020.

As of the date of this prospectus, there are no shares of our preferred stock outstanding.

 

Nevada Anti-Takeover Statutes

 

Nevada law provides that an acquiring person who acquires a controlling interest in a corporation may only exercise the voting rights of control shares if those voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the corporation’s disinterested stockholders at a special meeting held upon the request of the acquiring person. If the acquiring person is accorded full voting rights and acquires control shares with at least a majority of all the voting power, then stockholders who did not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights for those control shares are entitled to payment for the fair value of such stockholders’ shares. A “controlling interest” is an interest that is sufficient to enable the acquiring person to exercise at least one-fifth of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors. “Control shares” are outstanding voting shares that an acquiring person or associated persons acquire or offer to acquire in an acquisition and those shares acquired during the 90-day period before the person involved became an acquiring person.

 

We may be or in the future we may become subject to Nevada's control share law. A corporation is subject to Nevada's control share law if it has more than 200 stockholders, at least 100 of whom are stockholders of record and residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does business in Nevada or through an affiliated corporation. As of the date of this prospectus, we do not have 100 stockholders of record that are residents of Nevada. Therefore, these provisions of Nevada law do not apply to acquisitions of our shares and will not so apply until such time as both of the foregoing conditions are satisfied. At such time as these provisions of Nevada law may apply to us, they may discourage companies or persons interested in acquiring a significant interest in or control of our company, regardless of whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our stockholders.

 

In addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law, which restricts the ability of a corporation to engage in any combination with an interested stockholder for three years from when the interested stockholder acquires shares that cause the stockholder to become an interested stockholder, unless the combination or purchase of shares by the interested stockholder is approved by the board of directors before the stockholder became an interested stockholder. If the combination was not previously approved, then the interested stockholder may only effect a combination after the three-year period if the stockholder receives approval from a majority of the disinterested shares or the offer satisfies certain fair price criteria.

 

For purposes of Nevada law, an “interested stockholder” is a person who is:

 

  · the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation; or

 

  · an affiliate or associate of the corporation and, at any time within three years immediately before the date in question, was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly of 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation.

 

The definition of the term "business combination" is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation's assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.

 

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not exclude us from these restrictions.

 

These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and to discourage some types of transactions that may involve the actual or threatened change of control of our company. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal for the potential restructuring or sale of all or a part of our company. However, these provisions could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control of our company. They also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES Liabilities

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and persons controlling us pursuant to the provisions described in Item 14 of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the common stock being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of the issue.

 

INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION BY REFERENCE

 

The SEC permits us to “incorporate by reference” the information contained in documents we file with the SEC, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents rather than by including them in this prospectus.

Information that we file later with the SEC will automatically update and supersede the information that is either contained, or incorporated by reference, in this prospectus, and will be considered to be a part of this prospectus from the date those documents are filed.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Sections 78.751 and 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) provides that directors and officers of Nevada corporations may, under certain circumstances, be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and other liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by them as a result of any suit brought against them in their capacity as a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. Section 78.7502 of the NRS also provides that directors and officers of Nevada corporations may also be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with a derivative suit if they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made without court approval if such person was adjudged liable to the corporation.

 

Section 78.751 of the NRS states that any discretionary indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502, unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. Such determination must be made by: (a) the stockholders; (b) the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (c) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (d) if a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

 

Article VIII of our articles of incorporation provides that we shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada, indemnify our directors, officers and certain other persons, and that we shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation against any liability asserted against such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the NRS.

 

Article V, Section 1 of our bylaws provides that our directors, officers and certain other persons shall be indemnified and held harmless by us to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

Set forth below is information regarding securities we have issued within the past three years that were not registered under the Securities Act:

 

1. On August 14, 2020, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Labrys Fund, LP (“Labrys”) pursuant to which Labrys purchased a Self-Amortization Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $350,000 for $315,000 in immediately available funds. We also issued Labrys 420,000 shares of common stock as a condition of the Securities Purchase Agreement. 350,000 such shares issued will be returned to us if the Note is fully repaid and satisfied on or prior to August 14, 2021, subject further to the terms and conditions of the Note.

 

2. On August 14, 2020, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park which provides that upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the agreement, Lincoln Park is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $10,250,000 million shares of our common stock. We issued 1,396,224 shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park in consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement.

 

3. From July 16, 2019 to May 8, 2020, we entered into various promissory note agreements with accredited investors. The investment totaled $695,000 and each note carried an interest rate of 7%. Each note matures one year after the date of issuance.

 

4. The Company and Vivakor Inc. (“Vivakor”) are parties to certain convertible debt agreements dated January 4, 2017, which were subsequently amended on November 15, 2017 and February 1, 2018 (as so amended, the “Convertible Debt Agreements”). On June 4, 2020, pursuant to the Convertible Debt Agreements, Vivakor converted the debt and interest under the Convertible Debt Agreements into common stock of the Company. The amount converted was $809,578 and the conversion price was $1 per share resulting in a total of 809,578 shares of the Company’s common stock being issued.

 

5. The Company has issued a number of warrants to accredited investors with effective dates ranging from July 17, 2019 to May 12, 2020. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.50 and total 69,500 shares of our common stock in the aggregate of which 34,500 are outstanding.

 

6. On August 6, 2020, we engaged A.G.P A.G.P., as a placement agent to help us raise capital in connection with a private offering. A.G.P. introduced us to Lincoln Park and as part of the Lincoln Park Transaction described herein, we agreed to pay A.G.P. a fee of 8% of the amount of the funds received from Lincoln Park. In consideration for the service provided by A.G.P., we granted them warrants to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to $275,000, payable in the form of 550,000 penny warrants at a $0.50 purchase price, exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, during a four-year period with registration rights (including a one-time demand registration right and unlimited piggyback rights).

 

On August 6, 2020, we engaged A.G.P. as a placement agent to help us raise capital in connection with Labrys and this private offering. A.G.P. introduced us to Lincoln Park, for which we agreed to pay A.G.P. a fee of 8% of the amount of the funds received from Lincoln Park. In consideration for the service provided by A.G.P., we granted them warrants to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to $275,000, payable in the form of 550,000 penny warrants at a $0.50 purchase price, exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, during a four-year period with registration rights (including a one-time demand registration right and unlimited piggyback rights). These warrants and underlying common stock are not part of this registrations statement.

 

The offers, sales and issuances of the securities described above were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. All recipients of these securities were accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act who were acquiring the applicable securities for investment and not distribution and had represented that they could bear the risks of the investment. Each of the recipients of securities in these transactions had adequate access, through employment, business or other relationships, to information about us.

 

The purchasers of securities in the transactions described in this Item 15 received written disclosures that the securities had not been registered under the Securities Act and that any resale must be made pursuant to a registration statement or an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Appropriate legends were affixed to the securities issued in these transactions.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

 

(a) Exhibits

 

The exhibits to the registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

 

(b) Financial Statement Schedules

 

All financial statement schedules have been omitted because they are not required or because the required information is given in the financial statements or notes to those statements.

 

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

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

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

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

 

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

 

provided, however, that subparagraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those subparagraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

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

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

 

 

 II-3 

 

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§230.424 of this chapter);

 

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

 

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

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933:

 

(a) each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

 

(b) 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; and

 

(c) 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.

 

(7) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
