FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement. WE MAY NEED TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL WORKING CAPITAL FOR CONTINUED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. The developmentand any accompanying prospectus supplement, including the documents that we incorporate by reference, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the XcelaSAN product line has requiredSecurities Act and will continue to require substantial capital investment. We believe hat we have obtained sufficient financing for the continued developmentSection 21E of the products through fiscal 2011. However,Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingency, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and projections about future events and they are subject to risks and uncertainties known and unknown that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such financing may not be sufficient for our purposesstatements.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “should,” “could” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates, assumptions and additional sources of financing may not be available if needed. If we requireuncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this prospectus.

You should read this prospectus and are unable to raise additional funds, we may need to delay, scale-back or eliminate some or all of our researchany accompanying prospectus supplement and product development programs and/or license third parties to develop and commercialize products or technologiesthe documents that we would otherwise seekreference herein and therein and have filed as exhibits to developthe registration statement, of which this prospectus is part, completely and commercialize ourselves. WE MAY HAVE TO SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE OUR WORKING CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS IN THE EVENT OF DRAM ALLOCATIONS. Overwith the past 20 years, availabilityunderstanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement is accurate as of DRAMs has swung backthe date on the front cover of this prospectus or such prospectus supplement only. Because the risk factors referred to above, as well as the risk factors referred to above and forthincorporated herein by reference, could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from oversupply to shortage. In timesthose expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of shortage, we have been forced to invest substantial working capital resources in building and maintaining inventory. At such times we have bought DRAMs in excess of our customers' needs in order to ensure future allocations from DRAM manufacturers. In the event of a shortage, we may not be able to obtain sufficient DRAMs to meet customers' needs in the short term,date on which it is made, and we may haveundertake no obligation to invest substantial working capital resources in orderupdate any forward-looking statement to meet long-term customer needs. WE COULD SUFFER LOSSES IF DRAM PRICES DECLINE SUBSTANTIALLY. We are at times requiredreflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to maintain substantial inventories during periodsreflect the occurrence of shortage and allocation. Thereafter, during periods of increasing availability of DRAMs and rapidly declining prices, we have been forced to write down inventory. There can be no assurance that we will not suffer losses in the future based upon high inventories and declining DRAM prices. OUR PRODUCTS MAY VIOLATE OTHERS' PATENTS. Certain of our products are designed to be used with proprietary computer systems built by various OEM manufacturers. We often have to comply with the OEM's proprietary designs which may be patented, now or at some time in the future. OEMs have, at times, claimed that we have violated their patent rights by adapting our products to meet the requirements of their systems. It is our policy to, in unclear cases, either obtain an opinion of patent counsel prior to marketing, or obtain a license from the patent holder. We are presently licensed by Sun Microsystems and Silicon Graphics to sell memory products for certain of their products. However, there can be no assurance that product designs will not be created in the future which will, in fact, be patented and which patent holders will require the payment of substantial royalties as a condition for our continued presence in the segment of the market covered by the patent or they may not give us a license. Nor can there be any assurance that our existing products do not violate one or more existing patents. WE MAY LOSE AN IMPORTANT CUSTOMER. During fiscal 2010, the largest ten customers accounted for approximately 34% of our revenues and one customer accounted for 11% of our revenues. There can be no assurance that one or more of these customers will not cease or materially decrease their business with us in the future and that our financial performance will not be adversely affected thereby. SALES DIRECTLY TO OEM'S CAN MAKE OUR REVENUES, EARNINGS, BACKLOG AND INVENTORY LEVELS UNEVEN. Revenue and earnings from OEM sales may become uneven as order sizes are typically large and often a completed order cannot be shipped until released by the OEM, e.g., to meet a "just in time" inventory requirement. This may occur at or near the end of an accounting period. In such case, revenues and earnings could decline for the period and inventory and backlog could increase. WE FACE COMPETITION FROM OEMs. In the compatibles market we sell our products at a lower price than OEMs. Customers will often pay some premium for the "name brand" product when buying additional memory and OEMs seek to exploit this tendency by having a high profit margin on memory products. However, individual OEMs can change their policy and price memory products competitively. While we believe that with our manufacturing efficiency and low overhead we still would be able to compete favorably with OEMs, in such an event profit margins and earnings would be adversely affected. Also, OEMs could choose to use "free memory" as a promotional device in which case our ability to compete would be severely impaired. WE FACE COMPETITION FROM DRAM MANUFACTURERS. DRAM manufacturers not only sell their product as discreet devices, but also as finished memory modules. They primarily sell these modules directly to OEMs and large distributors and as such compete with us. There can be no assurance that DRAM manufacturers will not expand their market and customer base, and our profit margins and earnings could be adversely affected. THE MARKET FOR OUR PRODUCTS MAY NARROW OVER TIME. The principal market for our memory products consists of the manufacturers, buyers and owners of workstations and enterprise servers, classes of machines lying between large mainframe computers and personal computers. Personal computers are increasing in their power and sophistication and, as a result, are now filling some of the computational needs traditionally filled by workstations. The competition for the supply of after-market memory products in the PC industry is very competitive and to the extent we compete in this market we can be expected to have lower profit margins. There can be no assurance that this trend will not continue in the future, and that our financial performance will not be adversely affected. A PORTION OF OUR OPERATIONS IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE VERY COMPETITIVE INTEL AND AMD PROCESSOR-BASED MOTHERBOARD MARKET. In addition to selling server memory systems, we develop, manufacture and market a variety of memory products for motherboards that are Intel or AMD processor based. Many of these products are sold to OEMs and incorporated into computers and other equipment. This is an intensely competitive market with high volumes but lower margins. WE MAY MAKE UNPROFITABLE ACQUISITIONS. We actively seek to acquire complementary products and related intellectual property. The possibility exists that an acquisition will be made at some time in the future. Uncertainty surrounds all acquisitions and it is possible that a particular acquisition may not result in a benefit to shareholders, particularly in the short-term. In addition, there can be no assurance that the recently acquired business of MMB will be, or remain, a profitable operating unit of ours or that expected savings from having a larger consolidated business operation will occur. THE INVESTMENTS WE MAKE IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT MAY NOT LEAD TO PROFITABLE NEW PRODUCTS. We have implemented a strategy to introduce new and complementary products into our offerings portfolio, and expect to spend substantial sums of money on research and development of such possible new products. These research and development expenditures may not result in the identification or exploitation of any products that can be profitably sold by us. WE MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS. A portion of our accounts receivable and a portion of our expenses are denominated in foreign currencies. These proportions change over time. As a result, our revenues and expenses may be adversely affected,unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, by changesand it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the relationshipany forward-looking statements. We qualify all of the dollar to various foreign currencies on foreign exchange markets. We do not currently hedgeinformation presented in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, and particularly our foreign currency risks. WE MAY INCUR INTANGIBLE ASSET AND GOODWILL IMPAIRMENT CHARGES WHICH COULD HARM OUR PROFITABILITY. We periodically review the carrying values of our intangible assets and goodwill to determine whether such carrying values exceed the fair market value. Our goodwill is subject to an annual review for goodwill impairment. If impairment testing indicates that the carrying value exceeds its fair value, the intangible assets or goodwill is deemed impaired. Accordingly, an impairment charge would be recognized in the period identified, which could reduce our profitability. OUR STOCK HAS LIMITED LIQUIDITY. Although our stock is publicly traded, it has been observed that this market is "thin." As a result, the common stock may trade at a discount to what would be its value if the stock enjoyed greater liquidity. WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE NEW JERSEY SHAREHOLDERS PROTECTION ACT. This statute has the effect of prohibiting any "business combination" - a very broadly defined term - with any "interested shareholder" unless the transaction is approvedforward-looking statements, by the Board of Directors at a time before the interested shareholder had acquired a 10% ownership interest. This prohibition of "business combinations" is for five years after the shareholder became an "interested shareholder" and continues after that time period subject to certain exceptions. A practical consequence of this statute is that a hostile acquisition of our company is unlikely to occur and hostile transactions which might be of benefit to our shareholders are unlikely to occur. these cautionary statements.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2015, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A COD”). The Series A COD is substantially similar to the Certificate of Amendment filed on or about November 10, 2014 with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, which originally designated the preferences, rights and limitations of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the Series A COD, the Company designated 1,300,000 shares of its blank check preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $5.00 per share. Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive preferential cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% per annum (equivalent to a fixed annual payment of $0.40 per share). The dividends are payable in shares of common stock valued at the weighted average price of the Company’s common stock over the 10 consecutive trading days ended on the second trading day immediately before the payment date. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to a per share preferential payment equal to the stated value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Subject to certain limitations as set forth below, each holder may convert the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into such number of shares of common stock equal to the stated value divided by $2.00, subject to adjustment. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock unless the holder elected a different percentage beneficial ownership limit. For so long as any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, certain fundamental corporate actions set forth in the Series A COD require the affirmative vote or consent of holders of at least 90% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. On other matters on which holders of common stock are entitled to vote, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock vote on an as-converted to common stock basis together with the holders of common stock. As of the date of this prospectus, there were no shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

On January 21, 2016, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B COD”).

Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $12.20 per share. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to a per share preferential payment equal to the par value.

Holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends if and when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall participate on an “as converted” basis, with all dividends declared on the common stock. Subject to certain limitations as set forth below, each holder may convert the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into such number of shares of common stock based on a conversion ratio, the numerator of which shall be the Base Amount (defined below) and the denominator of which shall be the Conversion Price (defined below). “Base Amount” is defined, as of the applicable date of determination, as the sum of (1) the aggregate stated value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted, plus (2) the accrued and unpaid dividends on Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The “Conversion Price” of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is initially $0.61, subject to adjustment. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99%, in the aggregate, of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock calculated immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. A holder may increase or decrease the maximum percentage beneficial ownership by providing written notice to the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall the maximum percentage beneficial ownership exceed 9.99%.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

In connection with the closing of our acquisition of U.S. Gold, we will file with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of 0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C COD”).

Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company, each holder of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, for each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock held an amount in cash equal to, and not more than, the par value before payment is made to any other class or series of capital stock whose terms expressly provide that the holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock should receive preferential payment and the Company’s common stock; provided, however, that Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall rank senior to Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. Holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock do not possess any voting rights and are entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any options, convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of common stock purchase rights, then each holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such purchase rights, the aggregate purchase rights which such holder could have acquired if such holder had held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete conversion of all shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of such shares) held by such holder immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such purchase rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of common stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such purchase rights; provided, however, that if the holder’s right to participate in any such purchase right would result in such holder exceeding the beneficial ownership limitation (described below), then such holder will not be entitled to participate in such purchase right until such time as the purchase rights would not result in such holder exceeding the beneficial ownership limitation. At no time may shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock be converted if such conversion would cause the holder to hold in excess of 4.99% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, splits and fundamental transactions.

Dividends

The Company does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future as the Board of Directors intends to retain future earnings for use in the Company’s business. Any future determination as to the payment of dividends will depend upon the Company’s financial conditions, results of operations and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant. In addition, the Company’s financing agreement with Rosenthal & Rosenthal, Inc. entered into as of November 6, 2013 contains covenants limiting the declaration and distribution of dividends.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon a number of factors, including the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.

the direction so given by the holder is not in conflict with any law or the applicable indenture; and

The indentures provide that if an event of default has occurred and such holderis continuing, the trustee will be required in the exercise of its powers to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use in the conduct of its own affairs.

Form, Exchange and Transfer

We will issue the debt securities of each series only in accordancefully registered form without coupons and, unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. The indentures provide that we may issue debt securities of a series in temporary or permanent global form and as book-entry securities that will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, known as DTC, or another depositary named by us and identified in a prospectus supplement with respect to that series.

The trustee, other than during the occurrence of any event of default, the amount of money and U.S. government obligations so deposited in trust would be sufficient to pay amounts due on that series of the debt securities at maturity but may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on that series of the debt securities upon any acceleration resulting from such event of default.

The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with us or any affiliate of us; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the indenture or in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate such conflict or resign. The trustee for anysubordinated debt securities will be set forthunsecured and will be subordinate and junior in priority of payment to certain other indebtedness to the applicableextent described in a prospectus supplement.

It also does not limit us from issuing any other secured or unsecured debt.

Existing Senior and Subordinated Debt

As of May 10, 2017, we had no existing senior or subordinated debt issued under any indenture.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

The depositary maintains a computerized system that will reflect each investor's beneficial ownership of the securities through an account maintained by the investor with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below. Global Securities We may issue the debt securities in whole or in part in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the prospectus supplement relating to that series and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary for the registered global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees. If not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accountsdescription, together with the depositary or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants' accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities. So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the indenture. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the indenture. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the indenture. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the indenture, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them. Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on debt securities represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Dataram, the trustee or any agent of Dataram or agent of the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests. We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium or interest to holders on that registered global security, will immediately credit participants' accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of those participants. If the depositary for any of these securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security that had been held by the depositary. In addition,additional information we may atinclude in any time and in our sole discretion decide not to have any of the securities represented by one or more registered global securities. If we make that decision, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for all of the registered global security or securities representing those securities. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the trustee or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary's instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been held by the depositary.

General

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms relating to a series of warrants, including:

the offering price and aggregate number of warrants offered;
the currency for which the warrants may be purchased;
if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with each such security or each principal amount of such security;
if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;
in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the principal amount of debt securities purchasable upon exercise of one warrant and the price at, and currency in which, this principal amount of debt securities may be purchased upon such exercise;
in the case of warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock, as the case may be, purchasable upon the exercise of one warrant and the price at which these shares may be purchased upon such exercise;
the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreements and the warrants;
the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;
any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants;
the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and expire;
the manner in which the warrant agreements and warrants may be modified;
United States federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants;
the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; and
any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions on the warrants.

Before exercising their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon such exercise, including:

in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the right to receive payments of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the debt securities purchasable upon exercise or to enforce covenants in the applicable indenture; or
in the case of warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the right to receive dividends, if any, or payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up or to exercise voting rights, if any.

Exercise of Warrants

Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase the securities that we specify in the applicable prospectus supplement at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required amount to the warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth on the reverse side of the warrant certificate and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.

Upon receipt of the required payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining amount of warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender securities as all or part of the exercise price for warrants.

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Warrants

Each warrant agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may, without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action its right to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, its warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

The following description, together with the additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements and free writing prospectuses, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the units that we may offer under this prospectus. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any units that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of units in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any units offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below. However, no prospectus supplement will fundamentally change the terms that are set forth in this prospectus or offer a security that is not registered and described in this prospectus at the time of its effectiveness.

We will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from a current report on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, the form of unit agreement that describes the terms of the series of units we are offering, and any supplemental agreements, before the issuance of the related series of units. The following summaries of material terms and provisions of the units are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the unit agreement and any supplemental agreements applicable to a particular series of units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the particular series of units that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete unit agreement and any supplemental agreements that contain the terms of the units.

General

We may issue units comprised of one or more debt securities, shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock and warrants in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately at any time or at any time before a specified date.

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units, including:

the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;
any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described below; and
any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

The provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK,” “DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES” and “DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS” will apply to each unit and to any common stock, preferred stock, debt security or warrant included in each unit, respectively.

Issuance in Series

We may issue units in such amounts and in numerous distinct series as we determine.

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Units

Each unit agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable unit agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any unit. A single bank or trust company may act as unit agent for more than one series of units. A unit agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable unit agreement or unit, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a unit may, without the consent of the related unit agent or the holder of any other unit, enforce by appropriate legal action its rights as holder under any security included in the unit.

We, the unit agents and any of their agents may treat the registered holder of any unit certificate as an absolute owner of the units evidenced by that certificate for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights attaching to the units so requested, despite any notice to the contrary. See “LEGAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES.”

LEGAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

We can issue securities in registered form or in the form of one or more global securities. We describe global securities in greater detail below. We refer to those persons who have securities registered in their own names on the books that we or any applicable trustee or depositary or warrant agent maintain for this purpose as the “holders” of those securities. These persons are the legal holders of the securities. We refer to those persons who, indirectly through others, own beneficial interests in securities that are not registered in their own names, as “indirect holders” of those securities. As we discuss below, indirect holders are not legal holders, and investors in securities issued in book-entry form or in street name will be indirect holders.

Book-Entry Holders

We may issue securities in book-entry form, as we will specify in the applicable prospectus supplement. This means securities may be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a financial institution that holds them as depositary on behalf of other financial institutions that participate in the depositary’s book-entry system. These participating institutions, which are referred to as participants, in turn, hold beneficial interests in the securities on behalf of themselves or their customers.

Only the person in whose name a security is registered is recognized as the holder of that security. Global securities will be registered in the name of the depositary or its participants. Consequently, for global securities, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the securities, and we will make all payments on the securities to the depositary. The depositary passes along the payments it receives to its participants, which in turn pass the payments along to their customers who are the beneficial owners. The depositary and its participants do so under agreements they have made with one another or with their customers; they are not obligated to do so under the terms of the securities.

As a result, investors in a global security will not own securities directly. Instead, they will own beneficial interests in a global security, through a bank, broker or other financial institution that participates in the depositary’s book-entry system or holds an interest through a participant. As long as the securities are issued in global form, investors will be indirect holders, and not legal holders, of the securities.

Street Name Holders

We may terminate a global security or issue securities that are not issued in global form. In these cases, investors may choose to hold their securities in their own names or in “street name.” Securities held by an investor in street name would be registered in the name of a bank, broker or other financial institution that the investor chooses, and the investor would hold only a beneficial interest in those securities through an account he or she maintains at that institution.

For securities held in street name, we or any applicable trustee or depositary will recognize only the intermediary banks, brokers and other financial institutions in whose names the securities are registered as the holders of those securities, and we or any such trustee or depositary will make all payments on those securities to them. These institutions pass along the payments they receive to their customers who are the beneficial owners, but only because they agree to do so in their customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. Investors who hold securities in street name will be indirect holders, not legal holders, of those securities.

Legal Holders

Our obligations, as well as the obligations of any applicable trustee or third party employed by us or a trustee, run only to the legal holders of the securities. We do not have obligations to investors who hold beneficial interests in global securities, in street name or by any other indirect means. This will be the case whether an investor chooses to be an indirect holder of a security or has no choice because we are issuing the securities only in global form.

For example, once we make a payment or give a notice to the holder, we have no further responsibility for the payment or notice even if that holder is required, under agreements with its participants or customers or by law, to pass it along to the indirect holders but does not do so. Similarly, we may want to obtain the approval of the holders to amend an indenture, to relieve us of the consequences of a default or of our obligation to comply with a particular provision of an indenture, or for other purposes. In such an event, we would seek approval only from the legal holders, and not the indirect holders, of the securities. Whether and how the legal holders contact the indirect holders is up to the legal holders.

Special Considerations for Indirect Holders

If you hold securities through a bank, broker or other financial institution, either in book-entry form because the securities are represented by one or more global securities or in street name, you should check with your own institution to find out:

how it handles securities payments and notices;
whether it imposes fees or charges;
how it would handle a request for the holders’ consent, if ever required;
whether and how you can instruct it to send you securities registered in your own name so you can be a legal holder, if that is permitted in the future;
how it would exercise rights under the securities if there were a default or other event triggering the need for holders to act to protect their interests; and
if the securities are in book-entry form, how the depositary’s rules and procedures will affect these matters.

Global Securities

A global security is a security that represents one or any other number of individual securities held by a depositary. Generally, all securities represented by the same global securities will have the same terms.

Each security issued in book-entry form will be represented by a global security that we issue to, deposit with and register in the name of a financial institution or its nominee that we select. The financial institution that we select for this purpose is called the depositary. Unless we specify otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, DTC will be the depositary for all securities issued in book-entry form.

A global security may not be transferred to or registered in the name of anyone other than the depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, unless special termination situations arise. We describe those situations below under “—Special Situations When A Global Security Will Be Terminated.” As a result of these arrangements, the depositary, or its nominee, will be the sole registered owner and legal holder of all securities represented by a global security, and investors will be permitted to own only beneficial interests in a global security. Beneficial interests must be held by means of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the depositary or with another institution that does. Thus, an investor whose security is represented by a global security will not be a legal holder of the security, but only an indirect holder of a beneficial interest in the global security.

If the prospectus supplement for a particular security indicates that the security will be issued as a global security, then the security will be represented by a global security at all times unless and until the global security is terminated. If termination occurs, we may issue the securities through another book-entry clearing system or decide that the securities may no longer be held through any book-entry clearing system.

Special Considerations For Global Securities

As an indirect holder, an investor’s rights relating to a global security will be governed by the account rules of the investor’s financial institution and of the depositary, as well as general laws relating to securities transfers. We do not recognize an indirect holder as a holder of securities and instead deal only with the depositary that holds the global security.

If securities are issued only as global securities, an investor should be aware of the following:

an investor cannot cause the securities to be registered in his or her name, and cannot obtain non-global certificates for his or her interest in the securities, except in the special situations we describe below;
an investor will be an indirect holder and must look to his or her own bank or broker for payments on the securities and protection of his or her legal rights relating to the securities, as we describe above;
an investor may not be able to sell interests in the securities to some insurance companies and to other institutions that are required by law to own their securities in non-book-entry form;
● an investor may not be able to pledge his or her interest in the global security in circumstances where certificates representing the securities must be delivered to the lender or other beneficiary of the pledge in order for the pledge to be effective;
● the depositary’s policies, which may change from time to time, will govern payments, transfers, exchanges and other matters relating to an investor’s interest in the global security. We and any applicable trustee have no responsibility for any aspect of the depositary’s actions or for its records of ownership interests in the global security. We and the trustee also do not supervise the depositary in any way;
● the depositary may, and we understand that DTC will, require that those who purchase and sell interests in the global security within its book-entry system use immediately available funds, and your broker or bank may require you to do so as well; and
● financial institutions that participate in the depositary’s book-entry system, and through which an investor holds its interest in the global security, may also have their own policies affecting payments, notices and other matters relating to the securities. There may be more than one financial intermediary in the chain of ownership for an investor. We do not monitor and are not responsible for the actions of any of those intermediaries.

Special Situations When A Global Security Will Be Terminated

In a few special situations described below, a global security will terminate and interests in it will be exchanged for physical certificates representing those interests. After that exchange, the choice of whether to hold securities directly or in street name will be up to the investor. Investors must consult their own banks or brokers to find out how to have their interests in securities transferred to their own names, so that they will be direct holders. We have described the rights of holders and street name investors above.

A global security will terminate when the following special situations occur:

if the depositary notifies us that it is unwilling, unable or no longer qualified to continue as depositary for that global security and we do not appoint another institution to act as depositary within 90 days;
if we notify any applicable trustee that we wish to terminate that global security; or
if an event of default has occurred with regard to securities represented by that global security and has not been cured or waived.

The applicable prospectus supplement may also list additional situations for terminating a global security that would apply only to the particular series of securities covered by the prospectus supplement. When a global security terminates, the depositary, and neither we nor any applicable trustee, is responsible for deciding the names of the institutions that will be the initial direct holders.

If all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be set forthpassed upon for us by counsel. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers or agents, by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to each offer. ANTITAKEOVER EFFECTS OF PROVISIONS OF OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS Our by-laws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three or more than fifteen members, with the exact number to be determined by the vote of not less than a majority of the Board of Directors from time to time. Unless otherwise required by law, vacancies on the Board of Directors, including vacancies resulting from an increase in the number of directors or the removal of directors, may be filled by an affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office. Although shareholders holding a majority of shares may both appoint directors and remove directors with or without cause, the ability of the Board of Directors to increase the number of directors and to appoint directors may make it more difficult to change the Board of Directors, and should promote the continuity of existing management. These and other provisions also may have the effect of deterring, preventing or delaying changes in control or management. NEW JERSEY SHAREHOLDERS PROTECTION ACT The New Jersey Shareholders Protection Act, NJSA 14A:10A?1 et seq., which we refer to as New Jersey Act, prohibits certain New Jersey corporations, such as Dataram, from entering into certain "business combinations" with an "interested shareholder" (any person who is the beneficial owner of 10% or more of such corporation's outstanding voting securities) for five years after such person became an interested shareholder, unless the business combination or the interested shareholder's acquisition of stock was approved by the corporation's Board of Directors prior to such interested shareholder's stock acquisition date. After the five-year waiting period has elapsed, a business combination between such corporation and an interested shareholder will be prohibited unless the business combination is approved by the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting stock not beneficially owned by the interested shareholder, or unless the business combination satisfies the New Jersey Act's fair price provision intended to provide that all shareholders (other than the interested shareholders) receive a fair price for their shares. The New Jersey Act defines "business combination" to include the following transactions between a corporation or a subsidiary and an interested shareholder or such interested shareholder's affiliates: (1) the merger or consolidation of the corporation with the interested shareholder or any corporation that after the merger or consolidation would be an affiliate or associate of the interested shareholder; (2) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition to or with the interested shareholder, which has an aggregate market value equal to 10% or more of the aggregate market value of all of the assets or of the outstanding stock, or 10% or more of the income of the corporation or its subsidiaries; (3) the issuance or transfer to the interested shareholder of any stock of the corporation having an aggregate market value equal to or greater than 5% of the corporation's outstanding stock; (4) the adoption of a plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the corporation proposed by the interested shareholder; (5) any reclassification of securities proposed by the interested shareholder that has the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing any class or series of stock that is owned by the interested shareholder; and (6) the receipt by the interested shareholder of any loans or other financial assistance from the corporation. The New Jersey Act does not apply to certain business combinations, including those with persons who acquired 10% or more of the voting power of the corporation prior to the time the corporation was required to file periodic reports pursuant to the Exchange Act or prior to the time the corporation's securities began to trade on a national securities exchange. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the shares of common stock and matters governed by New Jersey law will be passed upon by Dillon, Bitar & Luther, L.L.C. supplement.
