SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED AUGUST 29, 2014

 

PROSPECTUS

 

 

NET ELEMENT, INC.

 

4,334,000 Warrants to Purchase Shares of Common Stock Offered by the Selling Securityholders

 

4,334,000 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Warrants Issuable by Us Upon the Exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Stock”)

 

4,334,000 Shares of Warrant Stock that May be Offered for Resale by the Selling Securityholders

 

10,658,279 Additional Shares of Common Stock that may be Sold by the Selling Securityholders (the “Additional Stock”)

This prospectus relates to:

 

· the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders (described in the section entitled “Selling Securityholders” on page 9 of this prospectus) of up to 4,334,000 warrants that were originally issued by Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd., a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and our predecessor (“Cazador”), to Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd., in connection with a private placement prior to Cazador’s initial public offering (the “Warrants”);

 

· the issuance and sale by us of up to 4,334,000 shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants so long as such Warrants are exercised by transferees who acquired those Warrants in registered transactions following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part;

 

· the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of up to 4,334,000 shares of Warrant Stock that are issuable, in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, upon exercise of the Warrants by the selling securityholders; and

 

· the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of up to 10,658,279 shares of Additional Stock.

 

Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our common stock upon payment of the exercise price of $7.50 per share. We will receive the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants, but not from the resale of the Warrant Stock. Additionally, we will not receive proceeds from the resale of the Warrants or the Additional Stock.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

Background and Business

 

Company Overview

 

Net Element, Inc. (“Net Element”) is a financial technology-driven group specializing in mobile payments and other transactional services in emerging countries and in the United States. We operate in a single operating segment, that being a provider of transactional services and mobile payment solutions. Geographic areas in which we operate include the United States, where through our U.S. based subsidiaries we generate revenues from transactional services and other payment technologies for small and medium-sized businesses (“SME”). Through TOT Group Russia and Net Element Russia, we provide transactional services, mobile payments transactions and other payment technologies in emerging countries including Russian Federation and the Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”).

General Business Developments

 

In 2013, we completed a number of acquisitions and dispositions in pursuit of our strategy to reposition our business activities with the goal of enhancing financial results, creation of a strong operational foundation and competitive advantage. We believe these transactions have realigned our company into a strong financial technology driven service company with a more balanced and stable business mix.

 

Our primary acquisitions and dispositions during 2013 were as follows:

 

  · On April 16, 2013, newly formed TOT Group and its subsidiaries acquired substantially all of the business assets of Unified Payments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Unified Payments”). Unified Payments provides comprehensive turnkey, payment-processing solutions to small and medium size business owners (“Merchants”), independent sales agents and independent sales groups (“ISGs”) across the United States.

 

  · On June 24, 2013, TOT Group, through its newly formed subsidiary Aptito, LLC (“Aptito”) acquired substantially all of the business assets of Aptito.com, Inc., a New York corporation. Aptito is a new generation of smart, customer engaged, patent-pending, cloud-based payments platform, mobile Point of Sale (“mPOS”), mobile commerce application and self-ordering Apple® iPad®-based kiosk.

 

  · During the third quarter of 2013, in order to reposition our business activities and focus on financial technology and transactional services, the Company divested its ownership in non-core assets, which included its subsidiaries Openfilm, LLC, Motorsport, LLC, Splinex, LLC, LegalGuru, LLC and MUSIC 1 LLC (a/k/a OOO Music1) (collectively, the “Disposed Subsidiaries”) by contributing to T1T Lab, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“T1T Lab”) all of its membership and participation interests in such subsidiaries in exchange for a 10% membership interest in T1T Lab. T1T Lab is a wholly owned subsidiary of T1T Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“T1T Group”). T1T Group was issued a 90% membership interest in T1T Lab in exchange for contributions that will be made to T1T Lab from time to time when requested by T1T Lab of such services and/or cash as determined by T1T Group in its sole and absolute discretion in order to manage and operate the Disposed Subsidiaries and their respective businesses. T1T Group is wholly-owned by Enerfund, LLC (which is wholly-owned by Mike Zoi, a majority stockholder and former director of the Company).  Openfilm, LLC, which develops technology and a website that supports the advancement of independent film on the Internet, was originally acquired in 2010. Motorsport, LLC, which is an online news and information service that distributes content related to the motor sports industry, was originally acquired in 2011. Splinex, LLC, which develops technology and web services focused in the areas of three dimensional (3D) imagery and video, was formed by the Company in 2011. LegalGuru, LLC, which is developing a video-centric, legal information portal, was originally acquired in 2012. MUSIC1 LLC, which operates an online music distribution platform in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries, was acquired by the Company in 2011. The Disposed Subsidiaries constituted all of the Company’s interests in online media businesses and operations (referred to herein collectively as the Company’s “entertainment assets”).

  

  · Subsequent to the 2013 fiscal year, during the first quarter of 2014, the Company further reduced its liabilities by divesting its 10% ownership interest in T1T Lab, LLC in exchange for termination of its obligation to commit funding of T1T Lab, LLC associated with its equity ownership.

 

  · The Company changed its name to Net Element, Inc. on December 15, 2013.

Our Corporate Organization

 

Our Company was formed in 2010 and incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability under the name Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd. Cazador was a blank check company incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger; share capital exchange; asset acquisition; share purchase; reorganization or similar business combination with one or more operating businesses or assets. In 2012, Cazador completed a merger (the “Merger”) with the previous legal entity known as Net Element, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Prior Net Element”), which was a company with businesses in the online media and mobile commerce payment processing markets. Immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Merger, the Company (then known as Cazador Acquisition Corporation Ltd.) changed its jurisdiction of incorporation by discontinuing as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and continuing and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Effective upon consummation of the Merger, (i) Prior Net Element was merged with and into the Company, resulting in Prior Net Element ceasing to exist and the Company continuing as the surviving company in the Merger, and (ii) the Company changed its name to Net Element International, Inc. In 2013, the Company divested its non-core entertainment assets. In December 2013, the Company changed its name to Net Element, Inc. We entered the mobile payments business through the launch of TOT Money in Russia in 2012. We entered the financial technology and value-added transactional service business through the acquisitions of Unified Payments in April 2013 and Aptito in June 2013.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should consider carefully the risks discussed below, together with the risks under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, and any subsequent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and Warrants

 

The historic price of our common stock has been volatile and the future market price of our common stock is likely to continue to be volatile. Further, the limited trading volume in our common stock contributes significantly to the high volatility in the market price of our common stock. This may make it difficult for you to sell our common stock for a positive return on your investment.

 

The public market for our common stock has historically been very volatile. Since trading began in the common stock of the Company on October 3, 2012 (the trading day following the closing of our merger with Net Element) and through August 29, 2014, the per-share market price for our common stock has ranged from $0.88 to $12.25. Any future market price for our common stock is likely to continue to be very volatile. This price volatility may make it more difficult for holders of our common stock to sell shares when they want and at prices they find attractive. We do not know of any one particular factor that has caused volatility in our stock price. However, the trading volume in our common stock is limited, which contributes significantly to that volatility, and we cannot assure you that a larger or more liquid market will ever be developed or maintained. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies. Broad market factors and the investing public’s negative perception of our business may reduce our stock price, regardless of our operating performance. Market fluctuations and volatility, as well as general economic, market and political conditions, could reduce the market price of our common stock. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to periodically enter the market in the belief that we will have poor results in the future. As a result, this may make it difficult or impossible for holders of our common stock to sell shares when they want and at prices they find attractive.

 

Our operating results and financial condition may fluctuate which could negatively affect the market price of our securities.

 

Our operating results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful and the market price of our securities may be negatively affected. The following factors, among others, may contribute to the variability of our quarterly and annual results and negatively affect the market price of our securities:

 

  · the fact that our payment processing business first launched operations and began generating revenue during the third quarter of 2012;

  

4
 

  

  · our ability to maintain existing, and secure additional, contracts with mobile phone carriers and content providers to use our payment processing services;
     
  · the effects of increased competition on our business;
     
  · our ability to successfully expand in existing markets and enter new markets;
     
  · the impact of worldwide economic conditions, including the resulting effect on consumer spending;
     
  · our ability to protect our intellectual property;
     
  · our ability to keep pace with changes in technology;
     
  · the success of our sales and marketing efforts;
     
  · costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement and other claims and related judgments or settlements;
     
  · changes in government licensing and regulation affecting our business;
     
  · interruptions in service and any related impact on our reputation;
     
  · the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel;
     
  · our ability to choose and effectively manage third-party service providers;
     
  · the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates;
     
  · our ability to successfully manage and integrate any acquisitions of businesses, solutions or technologies;
     
  · the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events;
     
  · changes in consumer behavior;
     
  · our ability to increase the effectiveness of our internal controls; and
     
  · changes in our tax rates or exposure to additional tax liabilities.

 

The market price of the Warrants will be directly affected by the market price of our common stock, which may be volatile.

 

We believe that the market price of the Warrants will be significantly affected by the market price of our common stock. We cannot predict how the shares of our common stock will trade in the future. This may result in greater volatility in the market price of the Warrants than would be expected for non-exercisable securities.

 

If an effective registration is not in place and a current prospectus is not available when an investor desires to exercise Warrants, such investor may be unable to exercise his, her or its Warrants, causing such Warrants to expire worthless.

 

Holders of shares of common stock received pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants will be able to sell their warrant shares only if a registration statement relating to such securities is then in effect, or if such transaction is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under the applicable securities laws of the states in which the purchaser of such securities resides. We intend to use our best efforts to keep a registration statement in effect covering the common stock underlying the Warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock underlying the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so, and if we do not maintain a current prospectus related to the common stock underlying the Warrants, holders may be unable to sell the common stock underlying their Warrants. If the prospectus relating to the common stock underlying the Warrants is not current, the Warrants may have no value, we will have no obligation to settle the Warrants for cash, the market for such Warrants may be limited, and such Warrants may expire worthless.

 

5
 

 

We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

 

We have the ability to redeem outstanding Warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period on the third business day prior to proper notice of such redemption; provided that on the date we give notice of redemption and during the entire period thereafter until the time we redeem the warrants, we have an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of our common stock underlying the warrants and a current prospectus relating thereto. Redemption of the outstanding Warrants could force you (i) to exercise your Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (ii) to sell your Warrants at the then current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your Warrants. None of the Warrants will be redeemable by us as long as they are held by Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd. (or its permitted transferees).

 

Our management’s ability to require holders of Warrants to exercise such Warrants on a cashless basis will cause holders to receive fewer ordinary shares upon their exercise of the Warrants than they would have received had they been able to exercise their Warrants for cash.

 

If we call the Warrants for redemption after the redemption criteria described elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein have been satisfied, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise such holder’s Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the Warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the Warrants and the difference between the “fair market value” and the exercise price of the Warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average last reported sale price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the Warrants. If our management chooses to require holders to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis, the number of shares of common stock received by a holder upon exercise will be fewer than it would have been had such holder exercised the Warrants for cash. This will have the effect of reducing the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in us.

 

The adjustment to the exercise price for Warrants and the number of shares of common stock underlying each Warrant in connection with an anti-dilutive adjustment event may not adequately compensate you for any lost value of your Warrants as a result of such transaction.

 

If a specified corporate event or transaction constituting a dilutive event occurs, under certain circumstances we will adjust the exercise price for the Warrants and the number of shares of common stock underlying each warrant in connection with such dilutive adjustment event. The adjustment to the exercise price for Warrants and the number of shares of common stock underlying each Warrant will be determined based on the date on which the dilutive event occurs or becomes effective. The adjustment to the exercise price for the Warrants and the number of shares of common stock underlying each Warrant in connection with a dilutive event may not adequately compensate you for any lost value of your Warrants as a result of such dilutive event.

 

Under certain circumstances, holders may have to pay U.S. federal income tax as a result of a deemed distribution with respect to our common stock or Warrants—even if holders do not receive a corresponding distribution of cash—such as, if we adjust, or fail to adjust, the exercise price of the Warrants in certain circumstances.

 

Holders of our common stock or Warrants may be treated as having received a constructive distribution in certain circumstances, for example if we make certain adjustments to (or fail to make adjustments to) the exercise price of the Warrants and such adjustment (or failure to make an adjustment) has the effect of increasing the proportionate interest of certain holders in our earnings and profits or assets. Such a distribution could be treated as a taxable dividend or capital gain for U.S. federal income tax purposes even though holders do not receive any cash with respect to such constructive distribution. In addition, you may be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax on any such constructive distribution on our common stock or Warrants. You are advised to consult your independent tax advisor regarding the possibility and tax treatment of any deemed distributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Until the exercise of the Warrants, holders of these securities do not have identical rights as holders of our common stock, but they will be subject to all changes made with respect to our common stock.

 

Holders of the Warrants are not entitled to any rights with respect to our common stock (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on our common stock), but they will be subject to all changes affecting our common stock. See “Description of Securities” in this prospectus. Holders of Warrants will have rights with respect to our common stock only if they receive our common stock upon exercise of the Warrants and only as of the date when such holder becomes a record owner of the shares of our common stock upon such exercise. For example, with respect to Warrants, if an amendment is proposed to our certificate of incorporation or bylaws requiring stockholder approval and the record date for determining the stockholders of record entitled to vote on the amendment occurs prior to the date a Warrant holder is deemed to be the owner of the shares of our common stock due upon exercise of the Warrants, the exercising Warrant holder will not be entitled to vote on the amendment, although such holder will nevertheless be subject to any changes in the powers, preferences or special rights of our common stock.

 

The market price of our common stock may or may not exceed the exercise price of the Warrants.

As of the date of this prospectus, the market price of our common stock did not exceed the exercise price of the Warrants, and we cannot provide you with any assurance that that the market price of our common stock will ever exceed the exercise price of the Warrants in any or all periods prior to the date of expiration. Any Warrants not exercised by their date of expiration will expire worthless and we will be under no further obligation to the Warrant holders.

 

Since the Warrants are executory contracts, they may have no value in a bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding.

 

In the event a bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is commenced by or against us, a bankruptcy court may hold that any unexercised Warrants are executory contracts that are subject to rejection by us with the approval of the bankruptcy court. As a result, holders of the Warrants may, even if we have sufficient funds, not be entitled to receive any consideration for their Warrants or may receive an amount less than they would be entitled to if they had exercised their Warrants prior to the commencement of any such bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding.

 

We may sell equity securities in the future, which would cause dilution.

 

We may sell equity securities in the future to obtain funds for general corporate, working capital, acquisitions or other purposes. We may sell these securities at a discount to the market price. Any future sales of equity securities will dilute the holdings of existing stockholders, possibly reducing the value of their investment.

 

The exercise of Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock will increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

There are outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,938,900 shares of our common stock. To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of our common stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the existing holders of our common stock and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

We may not be able to continue to meet the continued listing requirements for The NASDAQ Capital Market. If our common stock is delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market, our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price could be adversely affected, and the liquidity of our stock reduced and our ability to obtain financing could be impaired.

 

We are currently in compliance with all of the listing standards for listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, but we cannot provide any assurance that we will continue to be in compliance in the future. Any delisting of our common stock from The NASDAQ Capital Market could adversely affect our ability to attract new investors, reduce the liquidity of our outstanding shares of common stock, reduce our flexibility to raise additional capital, reduce the price at which our common stock trades and increase the transaction costs inherent in trading such shares with overall negative effects for our stockholders. In addition, delisting of our common stock could deter broker-dealers from making a market in or otherwise seeking or generating interest in our common stock, and might deter certain institutions and persons from investing in our securities at all. For these reasons and others, delisting could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Warrants may be thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or even at all if you need to sell your Warrants to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your Warrants.

 

The Warrants are quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board and may be “thinly-traded,” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing the Warrants at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation could be attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a relatively new company that may be unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days, weeks or months when trading activity in the Warrants is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on the price of the Warrants. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for the Warrants will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained or not diminish.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the proceeds that we receive from the exercise of the Warrants and might not apply the proceeds in ways that increase the value our common stock.

 

We will receive the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants, but not from the sale of the underlying shares of common stock. We also will not receive the proceeds from any resales by the selling securityholders of any Warrants. Our management will have broad discretion to use the proceeds that we receive from the exercise of the Warrants, and you will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of these proceeds. Our management might not apply these proceeds in ways that increase the value our common stock. We intend to use these proceeds primarily for general corporate purposes, including working capital, sales and marketing activities, general and administrative matters, repayment of indebtedness, and capital expenditures. We may also use a portion of these proceeds to acquire or invest in complementary products or businesses. Pending the foregoing uses, we intend to invest the proceeds that we receive from the exercise of the Warrants in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities, and these investments may not yield a favorable rate of return. If we do not invest or apply the proceeds that we receive from the exercise of the Warrants in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline. You will not have the opportunity to influence our decisions on how we use the proceeds that we receive from the exercise of the Warrants.

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our common stock adversely, the price and trading volume of our securities could decline.

 

Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on us. If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our common stock adversely, the price and trading volume of our securities could decline. The trading markets for our securities will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and trading volume of our securities would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our securities adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our securities would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the market price or trading volume of our securities to decline.

 

Provisions of Delaware law may prevent or delay a change of control, which could depress the trading price of our securities.

 

We are subject to the Delaware anti-takeover laws regulating corporate takeovers. These anti-takeover laws prevent Delaware corporations from engaging in a merger or sale of more than 10% of its assets with any stockholder, including all affiliates and associates of the stockholder, who owns 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock, for three years following the date that the stockholder acquired 15% or more of the corporation’s assets unless:

 

  · the board of directors approved the transaction in which the stockholder acquired 15% or more of the corporation’s assets;
  · after the transaction in which the stockholder acquired 15% or more of the corporation’s assets, the stockholder owned at least 85% of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock, excluding shares owned by directors, officers and employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held under the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
  · on or after this date, the merger or sale is approved by the board of directors and the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the stockholder.

 

8
 

 

A Delaware corporation may opt out of the Delaware anti-takeover laws if its certificate of incorporation or bylaws so provides. We have not opted out of the provisions of the anti-takeover laws. As such, these laws could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change of control of us and may discourage attempts by other companies to acquire us even if it would be beneficial to stockholders.

 

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could discourage a third-party from acquiring us.

 

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as applicable, among other things, (1) provide our board with the ability to alter the bylaws without stockholder approval, and (2) provide that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled by a majority of directors in office. These provisions, while designed to reduce vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal, and to discourage certain tactics used in proxy fights, may negatively impact a third-party’s decision to acquire us even if it would be beneficial to our securityholders.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will receive the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants, but we will not receive the proceeds from the resale by the selling securityholders of any Warrants, Warrant Stock or Additional Stock. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants primarily for general corporate purposes, including working capital, sales and marketing activities, general and administrative matters, repayment of indebtedness, and capital expenditures. We may also use a portion of the proceeds to acquire or invest in complementary products or businesses.

 

We have not yet determined the amount of proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants to be used specifically for any of the foregoing purposes. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion over the uses of such proceeds. Pending the uses described above, we intend to invest the proceeds from the exercise of Warrants in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities such as money market accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

 

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

We are registering:

 

  · the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of up to 4,334,000 Warrants;
     
  · the issuance and sale by us of up to 4,334,000 shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants so long as such Warrants are exercised by transferees who acquired those Warrants in registered transactions following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part;
     
  · the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of up to 4,334,000 shares of Warrant Stock that are issuable, in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, upon exercise of the Warrants by the selling securityholders; and
     
  · the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of up to 10,658,279 shares of Additional Stock.

 

The following tables set forth the number of Warrants and shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling securityholders as of the date of this prospectus and the number of Warrants, shares of Warrant Stock and shares of Additional Stock being offered by the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders are not making any representation that any Warrants, Warrant Stock or Additional Stock will be offered for sale. The selling securityholders reserve the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed sale of Warrants, Warrant Stock or Additional Stock. The following tables assume that all of the Warrants, Warrant Stock and Additional Stock being registered pursuant to this prospectus will be sold.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and includes voting or investment power with respect to our securities. In addition, the rules include Warrant Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants, which became exercisable on and after April 2, 2013. These shares of Warrant Stock are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the Warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to the Warrants and underlying shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them. The inclusion of any Warrants, Warrant Stock and Additional Stock in these tables does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership for the person named below.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of August 13, 2014, approximately 38,350,329 shares of common stock were outstanding. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

 

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to a pro rata share of cash distributions made to our stockholders, including dividend payments. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by our board of directors from funds legally available therefore. Cash dividends will be paid at the sole discretion of our board of directors.

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of record on all matters to be voted on by our stockholders. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of our directors or any other matter. Therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the shares of our common stock voting for the election of our directors can elect all of our directors.

 

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of our liabilities and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having any preference in relation to our common stock.

 

Holders of our common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Warrants

 

On April 2, 2013, the Warrants became freely transferable or saleable by Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd. or its permitted transferees. Notwithstanding the description of the Warrants below, for so long as the Warrants are held by any of Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd. or its permitted transferees, such Warrants (i) are non-redeemable and (ii) are exercisable on a cashless basis at the election of the holder, rather than at our sole discretion. A “permitted transferee” is a person or entity who receives such securities pursuant to a transfer (i) to one or more of our officers or directors or Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd., (ii) to an affiliate, or to an affiliate under common control with the transferor, (iii) to an entity’s beneficiaries upon its liquidation or distribution, (iv) to relatives and trusts for estate planning purposes, (v) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death, or (vi) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, providing the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of the escrow agreement regarding such securities.

 

Each Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $7.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below. The Warrants will be exercisable only if a registration statement relating to the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is effective and current.

 

The Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on October 2, 2017, or earlier upon redemption.

 

At any time while the Warrants are exercisable and there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants available and current, we may call the outstanding Warrants for redemption:

 

  · in whole and not in part;
     
  · at a price of $0.01 per Warrant;
     
  · upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the 30-day redemption period) to each Warrant holder; and
     
  · if, and only if, the last reported sale price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to Warrant holders.

 

12
 

 

We will not redeem the Warrants unless an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is effective and current throughout the 30-day redemption period.

 

We have established these redemption criteria to provide Warrant holders with a significant premium to the $7.50 exercise price as well as a sufficient degree of liquidity to cushion the market reaction, if any, to our redemption call. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the Warrants, each Warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his or her Warrants prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, there can be no assurance that the price of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants will exceed the redemption trigger price or the warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

 

If we call the Warrants for redemption, we will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” although you will not be eligible to do so at your option. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the Warrants for that number of shares of our common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of our common stock underlying the Warrants and the difference between the “fair market value” (defined below) and the exercise price of the Warrants by (y) the “fair market value.” The “fair market value” shall mean the average last reported sale price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Warrants. If we take advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of our common stock to be received upon exercise of the Warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares of our common stock to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the Warrants. If we call all of our outstanding warrants for redemption and we do not take advantage of this option, Cazador Sub Holdings Ltd. and its permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their Warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrant holders would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

 

The Warrants have been issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Warrants.

 

The exercise price and number of shares of our common stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation.

 

The Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the number of Warrants being exercised. On the exercise of any Warrant, the warrant exercise price will be paid directly to us and not placed in the trust account. In no event may the Warrants be net cash settled. Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of our common stock, including voting rights, until they exercise their Warrants and receive shares of our common stock. After the issuance of shares of our common stock upon exercise of the Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

No Warrants will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such Warrant, a registration statement relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is effective with the SEC and current and the shares of common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state or jurisdiction of residence of the holder of the Warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed to use our best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so and, if we do not maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their Warrants and we will not be required to net cash settle any such warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is not current or if the shares of common stock are not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside, we will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the warrant exercise, the Warrants may have no value, the market for the Warrants may be limited and the Warrants may expire worthless.

 

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. If a holder exercises Warrants and would be entitled to receive a fractional interest of a share, we will round up the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the Warrant holder to the nearest whole number of shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

On an after April 2, 2013, to the extent permitted by law, the selling securityholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their Warrants on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Warrants are traded or in private transactions. Alternatively, the selling securityholders may sell any or all of the shares of Warrant Stock that are issuable, in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, upon exercise of the Warrants by the selling securityholders. Sales of Warrant Stock and Additional Stock may be made on The NASDAQ Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which our common stock is traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. Subject to compliance with applicable law, the selling securityholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling their securities:

 

  · ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits the purchaser;
     
  · block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the applicable securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
     
  · purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
     
  · an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
  · privately negotiated transactions;
     
  · settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus;
     
  · agreements with broker-dealers to sell a specified number of such applicable securities at a stipulated price per share or restructured warrant;
     
  · through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
     
  · a combination of any such methods of sale; or
     
  · any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling securityholders may also sell their securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or in other transactions exempt from registration, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling securityholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling securityholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

The selling securityholders may pledge their securities to their broker-dealers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling securityholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker-dealer may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged securities. The selling securityholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the securities may be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities by, the selling securityholders or any other person, which limitations may affect the marketability of the applicable securities.

 

Upon our being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of such selling securityholder’s securities through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of the selling securityholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of applicable securities involved, (iii) the price at which such securities were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.

 

The selling securityholders also may transfer their securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

The selling securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Warrants, Warrant Stock or Additional Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of such securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. To our knowledge, no selling securityholder has entered into any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute such securities.

 

In the event that the Warrants are exercised by the selling securityholders, the shares of Warrant Stock underlying such Warrants will be issued directly to the selling securityholders, in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act, upon payment of the exercise price therefore to us. The registration of the issuance and sale by us of shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants is limited to exercises by transferees who acquire those Warrants in registered transactions following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Upon such exercises, the shares of Warrant Stock underlying those Warrants will be issued directly to such transferee upon payment of the exercise price therefore to us.

 

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of (i) the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of the Warrants; (ii) the resale from time to time by the selling securityholders of the shares of Warrant Stock and Additional Stock by the selling securityholders; and (iii) the issuance and sale by us of shares of Warrant Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants so long as such Warrants are exercised by transferees who acquired those Warrants in registered transactions following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Item 14.         Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

 

The following table sets forth the expenses to be borne by the Registrant in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered hereby. Other than the Securities and Exchange Commission registration fee, all of the amounts below are estimates.

 

Securities and Exchange Commission registration fee   $ 8,446 *
      
Accounting fees and expenses  $3,000 
      
Legal fees and expenses  $25,000 
      
Financial printing and miscellaneous expenses  $560 
      
Total   $ 37,006  

 

* $6,453 was previously paid by the Registrant on April 26, 2013 in connection with the filing of Registrant’s Amendment No. 1 to registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-186621), which is amended hereby.

 

Item 15.         Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper personal benefit.

 

Under Section 145 of the DGCL, we can indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Our certificate of incorporation provides that, pursuant to the DGCL, our directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to us and our stockholders. This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under the DGCL. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of the law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under the DGCL. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

 

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 our board of directors at the time such action occurred or immediately after such absent director receives notice of the unlawful acts.

 

In addition, our directors and officers are covered under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by us, subject to the limits of the policies, insuring such persons against various liabilities.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 17.         Undertakings.

 

(a)          The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)         To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (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 the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) 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 that 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;

 

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

 

(i)          Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(b)          The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes 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.

 

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 provisions set forth or described in Item 15 of this registration statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
