SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED FEBRUARY 16, 2024

 

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

 

 

 

T Stamp Inc.

 

Up to 3,600,000 Shares of Class A Common Stock 

 

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time of up to an aggregate of 3,600,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Warrant Shares”) issuable upon the exercise of Class A Common Stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) sold to a certain investor (the “Selling Stockholder”) in a private placement offering consummated on December 21, 2023. We are registering these Warrant Shares as required by the Warrant Exercise Agreement that we entered into with the Selling Stockholder on December 21, 2023 (the “WEA”). The Selling Stockholder may offer and sell the Warrant Shares in public or private transactions, or both. These sales may occur at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, or at negotiated prices.

 

As provided by Rule 416 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this prospectus also covers any additional shares of Class A Common Stock that may become issuable upon any anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder by reason of stock splits, stock dividends, and other events described therein.

 

The Selling Stockholder may sell all or a portion of Warrant Shares through underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from the Selling Stockholder, the purchasers of the Warrant Shares, or both. See “Plan of Distribution” for a more complete description of the ways in which the Warrant Shares may be sold. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of any of the 3,600,000 Warrant Shares by the Selling Stockholder. However, upon exercise of the Warrants for cash, the Selling Stockholder would pay us an exercise price of $1.34 per Warrant Share, subject to any adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, or an aggregate of approximately $4,824,000 if the Warrants are exercised in full for cash. The Warrants are also exercisable on a cashless basis under certain circumstances, and if the Warrants are exercised on a cashless basis, we would not receive any cash payment from the Selling Stockholder upon any such exercise of the Warrants. We have agreed to bear the expenses (other than underwriting discounts, commissions, or agent’s commissions and legal expenses of the Selling Stockholder) in connection with the registration of the Warrant Shares being offered under this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder.

 

We will pay the expenses of registering the Warrant Shares, but all selling and other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholder will be paid by the Selling Stockholder. See “Plan of Distribution.”

 

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities that may be resold by the Selling Stockholder. In certain circumstances, we may provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of a particular offering by the Selling Stockholder. Such supplements may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should carefully read this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement before you invest in any of our securities.

  

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IDAI.” On February 15, 2024, the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $1.54 per share.

 

As of February 15, 2024, the aggregate market value of our outstanding Class A Common Stock held by non-affiliates was approximately $13,84 million based on 8,984,284 shares of Class A Common Stock held by non-affiliates on such date, and based on the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on such date of $1.54 per share. As of the date of this prospectus, we have sold $5,191,989 worth of securities on April 14, 2023 and $2,942,767 worth of securities on June 5, 2023 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 during the prior 12-calendar month period ending on, and including, the date of this prospectus.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

Overview

 

Trust Stamp was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 11, 2016 as “T Stamp Inc.” T Stamp Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Trust Stamp”, “we”, or the “Company”) develop and market identity authentication software for enterprise and government partners and peer-to-peer markets.

 

Trust Stamp develops proprietary artificial intelligence-powered identity and trust solutions at the intersection of biometrics, privacy, and cybersecurity, which enable organizations to protect themselves and their users, while empowering individuals to retain ownership of their identity data and prevent fraudulent activity using their identity.

 

Trust Stamp tackles industry challenges including data protection, regulatory compliance, and financial accessibility, with cutting edge technology including biometric science, cryptography, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. Our core technology irreversibly transforms identity information to create tokenized identifiers that enable probabilistic authentication without the need to store or share biometric images or traditional templates. By retaining the usefulness of biometric-derived data while minimizing the risk, we allow businesses, NGOs, and government agencies to adopt biometrics and other anti-fraud initiatives while protecting end-user personal information from hacks and leaks.

 

Trust Stamp’s key sub-markets are identity authentication for the purpose of account opening, access and fraud detection, the creation of tokenized digital identities to facilitate financial and societal inclusion, and in-community case management software for alternatives to detention and other governmental uses.

 

As biometric solutions proliferate, so does the need to protect biometric data. Stored biometric images and templates represent a growing and unquantified financial, security and PR liability and are the subject of governmental, media and public scrutiny, since biometric data cannot be “changed” once they are hacked, as they are directly linked to the user’s physical features and/or behaviors. Privacy concerns around biometric technology have led to close attention from regulators, with multiple jurisdictions placing biometrics in a special or sensitive category of personal data and demanding much stronger safeguards around collection and safekeeping.

 

To address this unprecedented danger and the increased cross-industry need to establish trust quickly and securely in virtual environments, Trust Stamp has developed its Irreversibly Transformed Identity Token, or IT2 TM, solutions, which replace biometric templates with a cryptographic hash that can never be rebuilt into the original data and cannot be used to identify the subject outside the environment for which it is designed.

 

Trust Stamp’s data transformation and comparison technology is vendor and modality agnostic, allowing organizations including other biometric services providers to benefit from the increased protection, efficiency, and utility of our proprietary tokenization process. With online and offline functionality, Trust Stamp technology is effective in even the most remote locations in the world.

 

Trust Stamp also offers end-to-end solutions for multi-factor biometric authentication for account access and recovery, KYC/AML compliance, customer onboarding, and more, which allow organizations to approve more genuine users, keep bad actors from accessing systems and services, and retain existing users with a superior user experience.

 

Markets

 

Trust Stamp has evaluated the market potential for its services in part by reviewing the following reports, articles, and data sources, none of which were commissioned by the Company, and none of which are to be incorporated by reference:

 

Data security and fraud

 

·In 2022, 4,145 publicly disclosed breaches exposed over 22 billion records according to the “2021 Year End Report: Data Breach QuickView” published by Flashpoint.

 

1

 

 

·The cumulative merchant losses to online payment fraud between 2023 and 2027 will exceed $343 billion globally according to a 2022 report titled “Fighting Online Payment Fraud in 2022 & Beyond” published by Juniper Research.

 

Trust Stamp addresses this market with biometric identity verification and biometric authentication solutions — which offer Trust Stamp’s proprietary irreversible identity token to perform biometric-based matching in a secure and tokenized domain, matching tokenized personally identifiable information while implementing liveness detection.

 

Biometric authentication

 

·By 2027, the value of biometrically authenticated remote mobile payments will reach $1.2 trillion globally, according to a 2022 report titled “Mobile Payment Biometrics” published by Juniper Research.

 

·The global biometric system market size is valued at $41.1 billion per annum in 2023, with a forecast compound growth of 20.4% from 2023 to 2030 with a 2030 revenue forecast of $150.6 billion according to the 2023 report titled “Biometric Technology Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Component, By Offering, By Authentication Type, By Application, By End-use, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 — 2030” published by Grand View Research.

 

Trust Stamp addresses this market through its biometric authentication and liveness detection products — which offer Trust Stamp’s proprietary irreversible identity token to perform biometric matching in a secure and tokenized domain. This permits biometric authentication without the risk of storing pictures and biometric templates.

 

Financial and societal inclusion

 

·As of 2021, 1.4 billion people were unbanked according to the “Global Findex Database 2021” published by The World Bank.

 

·131 million small and medium-sized enterprises in emerging markets lack access to finance, limiting their ability to grow and thrive (UNSGSA Financial Inclusion Webpage, Accessed March 2023)

 

·The global market for Microfinance is estimated at $157 Billion in the year 2020, and is projected to reach $342 billion by 2026 according to the 2022 report titled “Microfinance - Global Market Trajectory & Analytics” published by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

 

Trust Stamp’s biometric authentication, liveness detection, and information tokenization enable individuals to verify and establish their identities using biometrics. While individuals in this market lack traditional means of identity verification, Trust Stamp provides a means to authenticate identity that preserves an individual’s privacy and control over that identity.

 

Alternatives to Detention (“ATD”)

 

·The ATD market includes Federal, State, and Municipal agencies for both criminal justice and immigration purposes. Trust Stamp addresses the ATD market with applications built on Trust Stamp’s privacy-preserving solutions allowing individuals to comply with ATD requirements using ethical and humane technology methodologies. Trust Stamp has developed innovative patented technologies for use in the ATD market encompassing biometrics, geolocation, and tokenization as well as a proprietary, tamper-resistant, battery-free “Tap-In-Band” that can complement or replace biometric check-in requirements and provide a lower-cost and more humane alternative to traditional “ankle bracelet” technology.

 

In addition to its key sub-markets, the Company is developing products and working with partners and industry organizations in other sectors that offer significant market opportunities, in particular, the travel, healthcare, Metaverse platform and cryptographic key and account credential safekeeping sectors. For example, the Company has developed a “crypto key vault” solution that leverages proven facial biometric authentication and irreversible data transformation technology to protect private keys for digital assets while ensuring long-term data protection and access credential availability.

 

Principal Products and Services

 

Trust Stamp’s most important technology is the Irreversibly Transformed Identity TokenTM (also known as the IT2 TM, Evergreen HashTMEgHashTM and MyHashTM) combined with a data architecture that can use one or multiple sources of biometric or other identifying data. Once a “hash translation” algorithm is created, like-modality hashes are comparable regardless of their origin. The IT2 protects against system and data redundancy, providing a lifelong “digital-DNA” that can store (or pivot to) any type of KYC or relationship data with fields individually hashed or (salted and) encrypted, facilitating selective data sharing. Products utilizing the IT2 are Trust Stamp’s primary products, accounting for the majority of its revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

We adhere to the best practices outlined in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) and International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) frameworks, and our policies and procedures in managing personally identifiable information (“PII”) are in compliance with General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) requirements wherever such requirements are applicable.

 

Key Customers

 

The Company’s initial business consisted of developing proprietary privacy-first identity solutions and then implementing them through custom applications built and maintained for a small number of key customers. In 2022, the Company added to its product offerings a modular and highly scalable Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model with low-code or no implementation (“the Orchestration Layer”). Although the Company remains open to significant opportunities to deliver custom solutions, sales of Orchestration Layer products are the primary focus of the Company’s sales and development initiatives. This strategic pivot in the Company’s go-to-market approach is expected to negatively impact revenue in 2023 while substantially increasing potential revenue in 2024 and thereafter.

 

Historically, the Company generated most of its income through two long-term partnerships, comprising a relationship with an S&P 500 bank with services provided pursuant to a Master Software Agreement entered into in 2017, together with a relationship with Mastercard International (“Mastercard”) with services provided under the terms of a ten-year technology services agreement entered into in March 2019 (the "TSA”). Both of those relationships remain strong, and the Company anticipates future revenue growth from the two relationships.

 

Under the TSA, IT2 TM technology is being implemented by Mastercard for Humanitarian & Development purposes as a core element of its Community Pass and Inclusive Identity offerings. Use cases include not only financial services for individuals and businesses but also empowering people and communities to meet basic needs, such as nutritious food, clean water, housing, education, and healthcare. Under the TSA, the Company is paid to develop and host software solutions utilizing the IT2 and to support Mastercard’s implementations. In addition, the Company is paid on a “per user per year” basis for all transactions utilizing its technology. In December of 2022, the Company entered into a modification of the agreed pricing schedule with Mastercard to move from a per-use to a per-user-year model to broaden the range of potential use cases. The TSA may be terminated by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party that remains uncured within thirty days after notice is received of such a breach. Either party may terminate the TSA if the other party becomes, including, but not limited to, insolvent, subject to bankruptcy, dissolved or liquidated. Unless the TSA is terminated, the TSA will automatically renew for additional one year-periods unless either party provides ninety days written notice of intent not to renew. To date, the Company has received guaranteed minimum annual payments on account of usage. Mastercard’s Community Pass program currently serves approximately 3.5 million users and is targeting 30 million users by 2027. Based upon information provided to us by Mastercard we anticipate user-based revenue starting in 2024 and growing year-on-year thereafter.

 

In 2022, the Company expanded its key customer base to include a relationship with Fidelity Information Services, LLC (“FIS”), a relationship focused upon the implementation of our Orchestration Layer and underlying technologies in FIS’ Global KYC product offering.

 

The Orchestration Layer is a low-code platform that is designed to be a one-stop shop for Trust Stamp services and provides easy integration to our products; chargeable on a per-use basis. The Orchestration Layer utilizes the Company’s next-generation identity package, offering rapid deployment across devices and platforms, with custom workflows that seamlessly orchestrate trust across the identity lifecycle for a consistent user experience in processes for onboarding and KYC/AML, multi-factor authentication, account recovery, fraud prevention, compliance, and more. The Orchestration Layer facilitates no-code and low-code implementations of the Company’s technology making adoption and updating faster and cost-effective for a broader range of potential customers.

 

In the third quarter of 2022, the Company acquired its first 2 new customers on the Orchestration Layer through its partnership with FIS, and in the fourth quarter of 2022, 4 additional FIS customers onboarded. As of September 30, 2023, a total of 35 financial institutions with over $297 billion in assets have been onboarded via FIS, bringing the total number of (FIS and non-FIS) customers either fully implemented or are currently implementing the Orchestration Layer to 38. The first (non-FIS) client onboarded to the Orchestration Layer in the third quarter of 2022 has generated $180 thousand of revenue for the Company to date including $137 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Although each of the institutions onboarded via FIS pays a small onboarding fee, given the typical time taken by a financial institution to test, implement and roll out any new technology, the Company does not anticipate significant revenue from the new FIS customers until 2024.

 

Reinforced by the product-market fit indicated by the FIS roll-out, the Company is building an internal direct sales force to offer the Orchestration Layer to non-FIS institutions. A key criterion for the account executives recruited is possessing significant experience and a successful track record in the identity solutions market. The Company anticipates contracted revenue from this initiative in 2023 and significant banked revenue in 2024.

 

In Management's opinion, we would be able to continue operations without our current customers, including our channel partnership with FIS. However, the unanticipated loss of the Company’s current customers could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

Recent Developments

 

Private Placement, Entry Into Warrant Exchange Agreement, and Issuance of the Warrants

 

On December 21, 2023, the Company entered into a warrant exercise agreement (the “WEA”) with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder agreed to exercise (the “Exercise”) (i) a portion (106,670) of the warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder on June 5, 2023, which are exercisable for 1,279,700 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) with a current exercise price of $2.30 per share (the “June 2023 Warrants”), (ii) all of the warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder on September 14, 2022, as amended on June 5, 2023, which are exercisable for 120,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, with a current exercise price of $2.30 per share (the “September 2022 Warrants”), and (iii) all of the warrants issued to the Selling Stockholder on April 18, 2023, which are exercisable for 1,573,330 shares of Class A Common Stock, with a current exercise price of $3.30 per share (the “April 2023 Warrants” and collectively with all of the June 2023 Warrants and the September 2022 Warrants, the “Existing Warrants”). In consideration for the immediate exercise of 1,800,000 of the Existing Warrants for cash, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of all of the Existing Warrants, including any unexercised portion thereof, to $1.34 per share, which is equal to the most recent closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market prior to the execution of the WEA. As of December 31, 2023, Armistice had submitted an Exercise Notice for 918,000 Existing Warrants and the shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to the warrant holders. The remaining 882,000 Existing Warrants from this exercise are held in abeyance until the Company receives notice from the holders that the remaining shares may be issued in compliance with the beneficial ownership limitation. In addition, in consideration for such Exercise, the Selling Stockholder received new unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, equal to 200% of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued in connection with the Exercise, with an exercise price of $1.34 per share (the “New Warrants”) in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). The New Warrants have substantially the same terms as the June 2023 Warrants.

 

The Company agreed to file a resale registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the New Warrants and the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, which is the purpose of this registration statement.

 

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Exercise were approximately $2.41 million, prior to deducting warrant inducement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds for business growth, working capital, and general corporate purposes.  

 

As of February 16, 2024, the Selling Stockholder has not exercised the New Warrants. All 3,600,000 of the New Warrants remain outstanding as of February 16, 2024. (Note – the “New Warrants” referenced above are the “Warrants” referred to throughout this prospectus, which may be exercised by the Selling Stockholder for the Warrant Shares that we are registering for resale from time to time pursuant to this registration statement).

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus, each prospectus supplement and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus and each prospectus supplement contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses, asset quality or other future financial or business performance, strategies, expectations or business prospects, or the impact of legal, regulatory or supervisory matters on our business, results of operations, or financial condition. Specifically, forward-looking statements may include statements relating to our future business prospects, revenue, income, and financial condition.

 

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements reflect our judgment based on currently available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

 

Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are not limited to:

 

  · adverse economic conditions;

 

  · general decreases in demand for our products and services;

 

  · changes in timing of introducing new products into the market;

 

  · intense competition (including entry of new competitors), including among competitors with substantially greater resources than us;

 

  · inadequate capital;

 

  · unexpected costs;

 

  · revenues and net income lower than anticipated;

 

  · litigation;

 

  · becoming delisted from Nasdaq;

 

  · the possible fluctuation and volatility of operating results and financial conditions;

 

  · the impact of legal, regulatory, or supervisory matters on our business, results of operations, or financial condition;

  

  · inability to carry out our marketing and sales plans; and

 

  · the loss of key employees and executives.

Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. You are cautioned that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements. We discuss in greater detail many of these risks in the applicable prospectus supplement, in any free writing prospectuses we may authorize for use in connection with a specific offering, in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments thereto, and in our subsequent filings with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety.

 

Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or developments. Thus, you should not assume that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. You should read this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement, together with the documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in the foregoing documents by these cautionary statements.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. All proceeds from the sale of the Warrant Shares will be for the account of the Selling Stockholder. However, we will receive the proceeds of any cash exercise of the Warrants. We intend to use the net proceeds from any cash exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes, which includes working capital, business and product development, potential acquisitions, retirement of debt and other business opportunities. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors; therefore, unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of our offerings.

 

We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the offering and sale of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our accountants, in accordance with the terms of the WEA. The Selling Stockholder will pay any discounts, commissions, and fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals incurred by the Selling Stockholder in disposing of the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus.

 

THE SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

The shares of Class A Common Stock (or Warrant Shares) being offered by the Selling Stockholder are those issuable to the Selling Stockholder upon exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Warrants, see “Recent Developments” further above in this prospectus. We are registering the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time.

 

In September 2022, April 2023, and June 2023, the Selling Stockholder and the Company engaged in transactions whereby, pursuant to the terms of Securities Purchase Agreements dated September 11, 2022, April 14, 2023, and June 5, 2023, respectively, the Company sold the Selling Stockholder a number of shares of Class A Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock in various private placement transactions, and subsequently filed registration statements on Form S-1 that were declared effective in January 2023 (File No. 333-267668), August 2023 (File No. 333-272343), and September 2023 (File No. 333-274160), respectively, to register for resale by the Selling Stockholder those shares, as well as the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants sold to this investor in those transactions. Apart from these previous transactions, and the transactions described in this prospectus relating to the WEA, the Selling Stockholder has not had any material relationship with the Company within the past three years.

 

The table below lists beneficial ownership information of the Selling Stockholder as of the date of this prospectus, as well as the expected beneficial ownership of the Selling Stockholder after the conclusion of this offering.

 

In accordance with the terms of the WEA with the Selling Stockholder, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, determined as if the outstanding Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the WEA, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all the shares offered by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus.

Under the terms of the Warrants, the Selling Stockholder may not exercise Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause the Selling Stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of Class A Common Stock which would exceed 4.99% (or, at the option of the Selling Stockholder upon 61 days’ notice to the Company subject to the terms of such Warrants, up to 9.99%), as applicable, of our then outstanding Class A Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the table do not reflect this limitation. The Selling Stockholder may sell all, some or none of the Warrant Shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

This beneficial ownership limitation may be increased up to 9.99% at the option of the Selling Stockholder upon 61 days’ notice to the Company subject to the terms of such Warrants.

This description is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Third Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “A&R Certificate of Incorporation”) and our amended and restated bylaws (our “Bylaws”), each of which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and the DGCL. You should read our A&R Certificate of Incorporation our Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the DGCL for a complete statement of the provisions described below and for other provisions that may be important to you.

Common Stock

 

Pursuant to the Company’s A&R Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors of the Company has the right to designate shares of the Company’s Common Stock as either Class A or Class B Common Stock. As of the date of this prospectus, all shares of Common Stock of the Company have been designated as Class A Common Stock, and there is no issued (or designated) Class B Common Stock. The rights and preferences of each of the Class A and Class B classes of Common Stock are summarized below.

 

Class A Common Stock

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders, including the election of directors.

Dividend Rights

 

Holders of each class of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds as detailed in our A&R Certificate of Incorporation. The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends on any of its capital stock and currently does not anticipate paying any cash dividends after this offering or in the foreseeable future.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to shareholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities of the Company.

 

Exchange Rights

 

A holder of shares of Class A Common Stock shares that is a bank, savings association, or a holding company (or an affiliate thereof) may at any time choose to exchange all or any portion of shares of Class A Common Stock it holds for shares of Class B Common Stock. In the event of such an election, each Class A share for which the holder makes such election shall be exchanged for a Class B share on a one-for-one basis without the payment of any additional consideration. In the event of such an election, the Company will take all necessary corporate actions to affect such exchange, the holder will surrender its certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class A Common Stock for which it made such election, and such Shares of Class A Common Stock shall be cancelled.

 

Transfer Rights

 

There are no restrictions on the transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company.

 

Class B Common Stock

 

The rights and preferences of the Company’s Class B Common Stock are identical to those of the Class A Common Stock of the Company, except for as described below.

  

Voting Rights

 

Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock have no voting rights with respect to such shares; provided that the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote (one vote for each Class B share held) to the same extent that the holders of Shares of Class A Common Stock would be entitled to vote on matters as to which non-voting equity interests are permitted to vote pursuant to 12 C.F.R. § 225.2(q)(2) (or a successor provision thereto).

 

Transfer Rights

 

In the event a holder of shares of Class B Common Stock transfers all or any portion of his or her shares of Class B Common Stock to a “Permitted Transferee” (as defined below), such Permitted Transferee will be entitled to elect to exchange all or any portion of such Shares of Class B Common Stock for Shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis without the payment of any additional consideration. No fractional shares may be so exchanged. In the event of such an election, the Company will take all necessary corporate actions to effect such exchange, the holder will surrender its certificate or certificates representing the Shares of Class B Common Stock for which it made such election, and such Shares of Class B Common Stock shall be cancelled. A “Permitted Transferee” is a person or entity who acquires Shares of Class B Common Stock from a bank, savings association, or a holding company (or an affiliate thereof) in any of the following transfers:

 

  (i) A widespread public distribution;

 

  (ii) A private placement in which no one party acquires the right to purchase 2% or more of any class of voting securities of the Company

 

  (iii) An assignment to a single party (e.g. a broker or investment banker) for the purpose of conducting widespread public distribution on behalf of a bank, savings association, or a holding company (or an affiliate thereof) and its transferees (other than transferees that are Permitted Transferees); or

 

  (iv) To a party who would control more than 50% of the voting securities of the Company without giving effect to the Shares of Class B Common Stock transferred by a bank, savings association, or a holding company (or an affiliate thereof) and its transferees (other than transferees that are Permitted Transferees).

Warrants

 

The Company has various warrants outstanding that are exercisable for shares of its Class A Common Stock. See the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 filed with the SEC on November 7, 2023, as well as the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 21, 2023, for information on the outstanding warrants of the Company.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain certain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. These provisions, which are summarized below, could discourage takeovers, coercive or otherwise. These provisions are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our Board of Directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us.

 

Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock

 

We have authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and our Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval. These shares could be used by our Board of Directors to make it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us through a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.

 

Limits on Stockholder Action to Call a Special Meeting

 

Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by our Board of Directors. A stockholder may not call a special meeting, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for holders controlling a majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors.

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors to fill vacancies or newly created directorships.

 

If there is a vacancy on our Board of Directors, the majority of the directors then in office may elect a successor to fill any vacancies or newly created directorships. This may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect their own slate of directors or otherwise attempt to obtain control of our Company.

 

Classified Board of Directors

 

The A&R Certificate of Incorporation provides for a classified board of directors of the Company, with the board divided into three classes. Class I will hold office for a term expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders; Class II will hold office initially for a term expiring at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders; and Class III will hold office initially for a term expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. At each annual meeting following this initial classification and election, the successors to the class of directors whose terms expire at that meeting would be elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting after their election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.

 

The Class I directors were elected at the 2023 annual meeting for a term of office for a term expiring at the 2026 annual meeting.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The Selling Stockholder, which as used herein includes certain donees, pledgees, transferees, or other successors-in-interest selling Warrant Shares or interests in Warrant Shares received after the date of this prospectus from the Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their Warrant Shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

  · ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

  ·

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares 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;

 

10

 

 

  · privately negotiated transactions;

 

  · short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;

 

  · through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

  · broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

  · a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

  · any other method permitted by applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholder may transfer the Warrant Shares 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.

 

In connection with the sale of our Class A Common Stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Class A Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell shares of our Class A Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out its short positions, or loan or pledge the Class A Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholder from the sale of the Warrant Shares offered by them will be the sale price of the Warrant Shares less discounts or commissions, if any. The Selling Stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Warrant Shares to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

 

The Selling Stockholder also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that it meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.

 

The Selling Stockholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Class A Common Stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions, or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any of the Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our Class A Common Stock to be sold, the names of the Selling Stockholder, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer, or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Warrant Shares may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Warrant Shares may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

We have advised the Selling Stockholder that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholder and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the Selling Stockholder to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective at all times until no Selling Stockholder owns any Warrants or Warrant Shares.

 

Our Class A Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IDAI.”

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

 

The following table sets forth an estimate of the fees and expenses, other than the underwriting discounts and commissions, payable by the registrant in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered. All the amounts shown are estimates, except for the SEC registration fee.

 

    Amount

Accounting fees and expenses     10,000.00 *
Legal fees and expenses     20,000.00

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and provides that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. Our A&R Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws also provide our Board of Directors with the discretion to indemnify our employees and other agents when determined appropriate by the Board. In addition, each employment agreement entered into between the Company and its officers and/or directors contains certain indemnification provisions, which require us to indemnify them in certain circumstances.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling our Company pursuant to the foregoing provision, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent 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 (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (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.

 

(c) 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.

 

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

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

 

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

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are acting as counsel to T Stamp Inc. (the “Company”) with respect to the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement is being filed to register the resale from time to time by a certain selling stockholder of the Company, as detailed in the Registration Statement (the “Selling Stockholder”) of up to 3,600,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) issuable upon the exercise of certain issued and outstanding warrants held by the Selling Stockholder to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.34 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Warrants”). We refer to the 3,600,000 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants herein as “Warrant Shares” (and each individually, a “Warrant Share”). This opinion letter is being rendered pursuant to Item 16 of Form S-3 and Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K, in connection with the Registration Statement, including the base prospectus that is part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”). The Prospectus provides that it will be supplemented in the future by one or more prospectus supplement (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”).

 

In connection with the opinion contained herein, we have examined the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, the resolutions of the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders, as well as all other documents necessary in our estimation to render an opinion. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

 

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, with respect to any shares of Class A Common Stock to be offered by Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Registration Statement (the “Offered Common Stock”), (i) when the Registration Statement, as finally amended (including all necessary post-effective amendments), has become effective under the Securities Act, (ii) when an appropriate Prospectus Supplement with respect to the Offered Common Stock has been prepared, delivered and filed in compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder, (iii) if the Offered Common Stock are to be sold pursuant to a firm commitment underwritten offering, the underwriting agreement with respect to the Offered Common Stock has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto, (iv) when the Board of Directors, including any appropriate committee appointed thereby, and appropriate officers of the Company have taken all necessary corporate action to approve the issuance of the Offered Common Stock, the consideration to be received therefor and related matters, (v) when the terms of the issuance and sale of the Offered Common Stock have been duly established in conformity with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and the Amended and Restated Bylaws, so as not to violate any applicable law or result in a default under or breach of any agreement or instrument binding upon the Company and so as to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company and (vi) when certificates in the form required under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) representing the Offered Common Stock are duly executed, countersigned, registered and delivered, or, if issued in book entry form, an appropriate account statement evidencing shares of Class A Common Stock credited to the purchaser’s account maintained with the Company’s transfer agent for Class A Common Stock has been issued by said transfer agent upon payment of the agreed upon consideration therefor, the Offered Common Stock, when issued and sold in accordance with the applicable underwriting agreement, or any other duly authorized, executed and delivered valid and binding agreement, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, provided that the consideration therefor is not less than $0.01 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

 

 

 

In rendering the opinions set forth above, we have assumed that (i) the Registration Statement (and any applicable post-effective amendment thereto) will have become effective under the Securities Act, a Prospectus Supplement will have been prepared and filed with the Commission describing the Offered Common Stock offered thereby and such Offered Common Stock will have been issued and sold in accordance with the terms of such Prospectus Supplement and in compliance with all applicable laws; and (ii) a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to such Offered Common Stock (if applicable) will have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and/or Selling Stockholder, as applicable, and the other parties thereto; (iii) the Offered Common Stock will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by the Company and any agreement pursuant to which such Offered Common Stock may be issued will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; (iv) the Company will remain duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under applicable state law; and (v) the Company has reserved a sufficient number of shares of its duly authorized, but unissued, Class A Common Stock as is necessary to provide for the issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to be sold by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the related Prospectus Supplement; and (iv) upon the issue of any Warrant Shares to the Selling Stockholder that are exercised for cash, the Company will receive consideration for the full exercise price thereof which shall be equal to $1.34 per Warrant Share (subject to adjustment).

 

The opinions set forth above are subject to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement or similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including the effect of statutory or other laws regarding fraudulent transfers or preferential transfers, and (ii) general principles of equity, including concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. We express no opinion regarding the effectiveness of (i) any waiver of stay, extension or usury laws or of unknown future rights; or (ii) provisions may be held unenforceable as contrary to federal or state securities laws.

 

No opinion is being rendered hereby with respect to the truth and accuracy, or completeness of the Registration Statement, Prospectus, any future Prospectus Supplement, or any portion thereof. No opinion may be implied or inferred beyond the opinions expressly stated in numbered paragraphs (1) through (3) above. Our opinions expressed herein are as of the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to advise you of any changes in applicable law or any other matters that may come to our attention after the date hereof that may affect our opinion expressed herein.

 

We consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus constituting a part thereof. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

 

Yours Truly,
