PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information that is presented in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities, and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information included elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated in this prospectus by reference. Before you decide whether to purchase our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement carefully, including the risks of investing in our securities discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in the applicable prospectus supplement and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also carefully read the information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including our financial statements, and the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, before making your investment decision.

Overview

We are a multi-national epigenetics company that applies our Nucleosomics^TM platform through our subsidiaries to develop and bring to market simple, easy to use, cost-effective blood tests designed to help diagnose a range of cancers and other diseases. We hope that through earlier diagnosis we can help save and improve the quality of many people’s lives throughout the world.

Our tests are based mainly on the science of Nucleosomics, which is the practice of identifying and measuring nucleosomes in the bloodstream or other bodily fluid - since changes in these parameters are an indication that disease is present. We are developing a novel suite of blood assays for epigenetically-altered circulating nucleosomes as biomarkers in cancer and other diseases. Nu.Q^TM products are simple, low-cost, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, or ELISA, platform tests and can incorporate other biomarkers such as anti-inflammatory markers and/or off patent, low cost ELISA tests in our panels (e.g. CEA, PSA, and CA125) for higher accuracy. We have successfully used our technology platform to develop Research Use Only kits and offer laboratory analytical services to other scientific institutions. We are at the early stages of revenue for these services.

Our diagnostic target in the blood includes the same tumor chromosome fragment as targeted by circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA, tests, but our approach is to test for chromosome protein and nucleic acid changes in intact chromosome fragments by ELISA, rather than chemically extracting, amplifying, and sequencing the ctDNA, and discarding the rest of the nucleosome. ELISA is possible because the targets of our tests occur globally across all nucleosomes within a tumor cell, whereas individual ctDNA changes must be identified within the three billion base-pair genomes. This means that the targets of our tests are exponentially more prevalent in circulating blood, and detectable using simple laboratory methods.

We are developing blood-based tests for the most prevalent cancers focusing on colorectal cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer, using our Nucleosomics biomarker discovery platform. Our development pipeline includes assays to be used for symptomatic patients, asymptomatic (screening) patients and high-risk populations. The platform employs a range of simple Nu.Q immunoassays on industry standard ELISA formats, which allows more rapid quantification of epigenetic changes in biofluids (whole blood, plasma, serum, sputum, urine, etc.) than afforded by other approaches such as bisulfite conversion and polymerase chain reaction. We are researching the use of our assays across multiple platforms worldwide.

In addition to human diagnostics we are also researching the use of the Nu.Q technology in veterinary applications. An initial proof of concept study demonstrated that nucleosomes can be detected in dogs and, therefore, the potential to differentiate cancer from other diseases. We will now test Nu.Q Vet in larger trials in veterinary medicine. Our extensive intellectual property portfolio includes coverage of veterinary medicine applications.

We have incurred losses since inception, have negative cash flows from operations, and currently have no revenues, and we do not anticipate earning significant revenues until such time as we are able to fully market our intended products. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our most recent audited financial statements that our net losses since inception and accumulation of a significant deficit raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing. See Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 for a discussion of our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully accomplish our plan of operations described in such Annual Report, obtain financing and eventually attain profitable operations.

Issuance of Warrants

On March 20, 2013, we issued a warrant to purchase up to 200,000 shares of our common stock, for an exercise price of $2.47 per share, to our then-consultant and current Chief Medical Officer, Jason Terrell, or the Original Terrell Warrant, and as amended on each of February 14, 2017 and July 1, 2019, the Terrell Warrant. The Terrell Warrant was exercised as to 50,000 shares on or about July 10, 2014. The remaining 150,000 shares underlying the Terrell Warrant vest upon the achievement of certain vesting milestones.

On November 14, 2016, we issued a fully-vested warrant to purchase up to 40,000 shares of our common stock, for an exercise price of $4.53 per share, to our service provider, National Securities Corporation, or the National Warrant. The National Warrant was subsequently partially assigned as to 36,000 shares to three individuals.

The Offering

Throughout this prospectus, when we refer to the shares of our common stock being registered on behalf of the selling stockholders for offer and resale, we are referring to the shares of common stock previously issued to the selling stockholders or to be issued upon exercise of the warrants. When we refer to the selling stockholders in this prospectus, we are referring to the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus and, as applicable, their permitted transferees or other successors-in-interest that may be identified in a supplement to this prospectus or, if required, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

RISK FACTORS

Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described below, along with the risks under “Risk Factors” in the applicable prospectus supplement and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, or any updates in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, together with all of the other information appearing in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, in light of your particular investment objectives and financial circumstances. The risks so described are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. For more information, see the information included under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.” Please also read carefully the following section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information.”

Risks Related to this Offering

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock by the selling stockholders, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

The sale by the selling stockholders, some of whom are our affiliates, of a significant number of shares of common stock could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the perception in the public markets that the selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of their shares as a result of the registration of such shares for resale pursuant to this prospectus could also in and of itself have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of common stock or the availability of those shares of commonstock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement, and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement, or the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, including statements regarding estimates, future events, our future financial performance, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including with respect to us specifically and the cancer diagnostics industry in general, are forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify estimates and forward-looking statements by terminology including “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “seeks,” “should,” “suggests,” “targets” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we do not make estimates or forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Our estimates and forward-looking statements are based on our current assumptions and expectations about future events and trends, which affect or may affect our business, strategy, operations or financial performance. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to vary materially from those expressed or implied by these estimates and forward-looking statements.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement, and in any documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. Readers should carefully review this information as well as other risks and uncertainties described in other filings with the SEC that we may make after the filing date of this prospectus. See the information included under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any estimates or forward-looking statements. All estimates and forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and, except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, we undertake no obligation to update or to review any estimate and/or forward-looking statement. In light of these risks and uncertainties, we cannot assure you that the estimates or forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement, or the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these estimates and forward-looking statements.

We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The primary purpose of filing this registration statement is to significantly reduce the legal and administrative burdens, for both VolitionRx and many of its long-standing stockholders, with respect to conducting routine transactions in its common stock by registering such shares, and shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants, for resale and enhancing overall liquidity. The selling stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. However, upon any exercise of the warrants, the selling stockholders would pay us the applicable exercise price per share. We expect to use any such warrant exercise proceeds primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes. 

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

We have prepared this prospectus to allow the selling stockholders or their transferees, pledgees, assignees, distributees, donees or other successors in interest to sell or otherwise dispose of, from time to time, up to an aggregate of 9,810,310 shares of our common stock, including up to 190,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants. The table below presents information regarding the selling stockholders, the shares of common stock that each selling stockholder may sell or otherwise dispose of from time to time under this prospectus and the number of shares and percentage of our outstanding shares of common stock each selling stockholder will own assuming all of the shares covered by this prospectus, including shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants in full, are sold by such selling stockholder.

We do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock covered hereby. The selling stockholders might not sell or dispose of any or all of the shares covered by this prospectus or may sell or dispose of some or all of the shares other than pursuant to this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders may not sell or otherwise dispose of some or all of the shares covered by this prospectus, we cannot estimate the number of shares that will be held by the selling stockholders after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of this table, we have assumed that all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus, including shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, will be sold by the selling stockholders.

The information in the table is based on 41,204,685 shares outstanding as of January 31, 2020 and was prepared based on information supplied to us by the selling stockholders and upon information in our possession. Information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to time and changed information will be presented in a supplement to this prospectus if and when required.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 except that shares of common stock that may be acquired by the selling stockholder pursuant to previously granted options under the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan, whether vested or unvested, as well as outstanding warrants, are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the selling stockholder holding such securities (regardless of vesting date) for determining shares beneficially owned and for determining ownership percentage of such holder, but excluded for determining the ownership percentage of other holders. The actual number of shares beneficially owned prior to and after the offering is subject to adjustment and could be materially less or more than the estimated amount indicated depending upon factors, which we cannot predict at this time.

The selling stockholders are not required to sell any shares of our common stock and there is no assurance that any of the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. We are currently not aware of any agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale or other disposition of any of the shares covered hereby.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders, including their transferees, pledgees, assignees, distributees, donees or other successors-in-interest, may from time to time offer some or all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus. To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended and supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution.

The selling stockholders will not pay any of the costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, but they will pay any and all of their own legal fees, underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, attributable to sales of the shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. However, upon exercise of the warrants, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of such warrants.

The selling stockholders may sell the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time, and may also decide not to sell all or any of the shares of common stock that they are allowed to sell under this prospectus. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions regarding the timing, manner and size of each sale. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at privately negotiated prices. Sales may be made by the selling stockholders in one or more types of transactions, which may include:

purchases by underwriters, dealers and agents who may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent; 

one or more block transactions, including transactions in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction, or in crosses, in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade;  

ordinary brokerage transactions or transactions in which a broker solicits purchases;  

purchases by a broker-dealer or market maker, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;  

the pledge of shares of common stock for any loan or obligation, including pledges to brokers or dealers who may from time to time effect distributions of shares of common stock; 

short sales or transactions to cover short sales relating to the shares of common stock;  

one or more exchanges or over-the-counter market transactions;  

through distribution by a selling stockholder or its successors-in-interest to its members, general or limited partners or stockholders (or their respective members, general or limited partners or stockholders);  

privately negotiated transactions;  

the writing of options, whether the options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;  

distributions to creditors and equity holders of a selling stockholder; and  

any combination of the foregoing, or any other available means allowable under applicable law. 

The selling stockholders may also resell all or a portion of their common stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of Rule 144.

The selling stockholders may enter into sale, forward sale and derivative transactions with third parties, or may sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those sale, forward sale or derivative transactions, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions and by issuing securities that are not covered by this prospectus but are exchangeable for or represent beneficial interests in the common stock. The third parties also may use shares received under those sale, forward sale or derivative arrangements or shares pledged by the selling stockholders or borrowed from the selling stockholders or others to settle such third-party sales or to close out any related open borrowings of common stock. The third parties may deliver this prospectus in connection with any such transactions. Any third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part).

In addition, the selling stockholders may engage in hedging transactions with broker-dealers in connection with distributions of common stock or otherwise. In those transactions, broker-dealers may engage in short sales of securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also sell securities short and redeliver securities to close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers which require the delivery of securities to the broker-dealer. The broker-dealer may then resell or otherwise transfer such securities pursuant to this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may loan or pledge shares, and the borrower or pledgee may sell or otherwise transfer the common stock so loaned or pledged pursuant to this prospectus. Such borrower or pledgee also may transfer those shares of common stock to investors in our securities or the selling stockholders’ securities or in connection with the offering of other securities not covered by this prospectus.

To the extent necessary, we may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. We will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, upon being notified by a selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares through a block trade, offering or a purchase by a broker or dealer. The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the specific terms of the offering of securities, including:

the number of shares of common stock offered;  

the price of such common stock;  

the proceeds to the applicable selling stockholder from the sale of such common stock;  

the names of the underwriters or agents, if any;  

any underwriting discounts, agency fees or other compensation to underwriters or agents; and  

any discounts or concessions allowed or paid to dealers. 

The selling stockholders may, or may authorize underwriters, dealers and agents to, solicit offers from specified institutions to purchase common stock from the selling stockholders at the public offering price listed in the applicable prospectus supplement. These sales may be made under “delayed delivery contracts” or other purchase contracts that provide for payment and delivery on a specified future date. Any contracts like this will be described in and be subject to the conditions listed in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Broker-dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders. Broker-dealers or agents may also receive compensation from the purchasers of common stock for whom they act as agents or to whom they sell as principals, or both. Compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions and will be in amounts to be negotiated in connection with transactions involving securities. In effecting sales, broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in the resales.

In connection with sales of common stock covered hereby, the selling stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent and any other participating broker-dealer that executes sales for the selling stockholders may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. Accordingly, any profits realized by the selling stockholders and any compensation earned by such underwriter, broker-dealer or agent may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Because the selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act, the selling stockholders must deliver this prospectus and any prospectus supplement in the manner required by the Securities Act. This prospectus delivery requirement may be satisfied in accordance with Rule 153 under the Securities Act.

We or the selling stockholders may agree to indemnify each other, any underwriters, broker-dealers and agents against or contribute to any payments the underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be required to make with respect to, civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Underwriters, broker-dealers and agents and their affiliates are permitted to be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us and our affiliates or the selling stockholders or their affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

The selling stockholders will be subject to the applicable provisions of Regulation M of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the common stock by the selling stockholders. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock. These restrictions may affect the marketability of such common stock.

In order to comply with applicable securities laws of some states, the common stock may be sold in those jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the common stock may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirements is available. In addition, any common stock of a selling stockholder covered by this prospectus that qualify for saleRegistration Statement pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold415(a)(6) that were registered on a previously filed registration statement, as indicated in open market transactions under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

In connection with an offering of common stock under this prospectus, underwriters may purchase and sell securities in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in an offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market priceNote (6) of the securities while“Calculation of Registration Fee” table of this Amendment No. 1 and (ii) to file an offering is in progress.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the underwriters have repurchased securities sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing or short-covering transactions.

These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the common stock offered under this prospectus. As a result, the price of the common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. These transactions may be effected on the NYSE American market or another securities exchange or automated quotation system, or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

ITEM 15.INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.  Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL, permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability for any:

Section 145 of the DGCL provides, in general, that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise.  The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. In the case of a derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or any other court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.  To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a Delaware corporation is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Section 145 of the DGCL provides that such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

Section 174 of the DGCL provides, among other things, that a director, who willfully or negligently approves of an unlawful payment of dividends or an unlawful stock purchase or redemption, may be held liable for such actions. A director who was either absent when the unlawful actions were approved or dissented at the time, may avoid liability by causing his or her dissent to such actions to be entered in the books containing minutes of the meetings of the board of directors at the time such action occurred or immediately after such absent director receives notice of the unlawful acts.

II-1

Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act which may be permitted for directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we are informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that we shall, indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL and also pay expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon delivery of an undertaking, by or on behalf of an indemnified person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under the bylaws or the DGCL.

As permitted by the DGCL, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and certain of our officers.  These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

We have an insurance policy covering our officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or otherwise.

Any underwriting agreement or similar agreement that we enter into in connection with an offer of securities pursuant to this registration statement may provide for indemnification by any underwriters of us, our directors, our officers who sign the registration statement and our controlling persons for some liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

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 this 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 this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and 

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

provided,however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of 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: 

(i)Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and 

(ii)Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.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 effective date, 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 effective date. 

II-3

(5)That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 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. 

(6)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.
