Overview
We
are a revenue stage medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of a suite of innovative diagnostic and
multi-disciplinary treatment modalities for patients with dentofacial abnormalities and the wide array of medical conditions that may
result from them (including all severities of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults and moderate to severe in children). We believe
our proprietary oral appliances, diagnostic tools, myofunctional therapy, clinical treatments, continuing education, and practice solutions
represent a powerful and highly effective set of resources for healthcare providers of all disciplines who treat patients suffering from
debilitating and even life-threatening breathing and sleep disorders and their comorbidities.
To
date, our primary focus has been on expanding awareness of, and providing treatment options for OSA for and through the dental industry,
which we believe represents a large and relatively untapped market for OSA treatment. As our business has evolved, we have expanded our
marketing, provider outreach, and treatment programs to encompass a broader more multidisciplinary approach, with a greater emphasis
on working with medical doctors and other healthcare providers beyond dentists. Now that we have established a national network of Vivos-trained
dentists, we are pivoting our focus to the source of where we believe the vast majority of OSA patients are first diagnosed and treated—the
medical profession (including sleep centers and doctors and dentists who offer OSA treatment) as well durable medical equipment (DME)
companies who manufacture and distribute OSA therapies. See “New Marketing and Distribution Alliance Strategy” below for
more information.
In
this prospectus supplement, we sometimes refer to doctors, dentists and other medical professionals who treat OSA as “providers”
(including our own Vivos-trained dentists).
Studies
have shown our comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach represents a significant improvement in the treatment of mild to severe OSA
in comparison to or when combined with other largely palliative treatments such as continuous positive airway pressure (or CPAP) or oral
myofunctional therapy. We call our solution The Vivos Method.
Our
Products and Services
Currently,
The Vivos Method comprises the following products and services:
|
● |
Vivos
Complete Airway Repositioning and/or Expansion (CARE) oral appliance therapy including our: |
|
○ |
Daytime
Nighttime Appliance (or DNA appliance®) was granted 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration
(or FDA) as a Class II medical device in December 2022 for the treatment of snoring and mild to moderate OSA, jaw repositioning and
snoring in adults. It is the only oral appliance ever to receive FDA clearance to treat OSA without mandibular advancement as its
primary mechanism of action. In November 2023, our DNA appliance was cleared by the FDA to treat moderate and severe OSA in adults,
18 years of age and older along with positive airway pressure (PAP) and/or myofunctional therapy, as needed. In September 2024, our
DNA appliance was cleared by the FDA to treat moderate to severe OSA and snoring in children aged 6 to 17. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
Mandibular
Repositioning Nighttime Appliance (or mRNA appliance®) has 510(k) clearance from the FDA as a Class II medical
device for the treatment of snoring and mild to moderate OSA in adults. In November 2023, our mRNA appliance was cleared by the FDA
to treat moderate and severe OSA in adults, 18 years of age and older along with positive airway pressure (PAP) and/or myofunctional
therapy, as needed. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
Modified
Mandibular Repositioning Nighttime Appliance (or mmRNA appliance), for which we were granted FDA Class II market clearance
in August 2021 for treating mild to moderate OSA, jaw reposition and snoring in adults. In November 2023, our mmRNA appliance was
cleared by the FDA to treat moderate and severe OSA in adults, 18 years of age and older along with positive airway pressure (PAP)
and/or myofunctional therapy, as needed. |
The
November 2023 clearance of our CARE appliances for the indication described above represents the first time the FDA has ever granted
an oral appliance a clearance to treat severe OSA. We believe this unprecedented decision by the FDA will generate broader acceptance
throughout the medical community for our treatment options, leading to the potential for higher patient referrals and case starts as
well as collaboration with medical professionals. We also believe it will enhance our value proposition to third-party distribution partners
such as DME companies. This approval could also clear the way for greater reimbursement levels from medical insurance payors and Medicare.
For example, in April 2024 we received the required regulatory approvals to enable Medicare reimbursement for our CARE oral medical devices.
In
September 2024, our DNA appliance was cleared by the FDA to treat moderate to severe OSA and snoring in children aged 6 to 17. We believe
this breakthrough regulatory clearance represents a huge opportunity to capture significant market share in the pediatric OSA sector
that is desperate for innovation and effective alternatives.
|
● |
Vivos
oral appliances and therapies outside of CARE system include: |
|
○ |
Vivos
Guides are pre-formed, flexible, BPA-free, base polymer, monoblock intraoral guide and rescue appliances. The Guides are
FDA Class I registered product for orthodontic tooth positioning typically used by dentists in children to address malocclusions
and promote proper guided growth and development of the mouth and jaws. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
Vivos
VersaTM is an FDA 510(k) cleared Class II device for treating mild to moderate OSA in adults. It is a comfortable,
easy-to-wear, medical grade nylon, 3D printed oral appliance featuring mandibular advancement as its mechanism of action. It is priced
to be very cost effective and offers Vivos providers and patients a comfortable and effective product at a much lower price point
for treatment. As with all other non-CARE oral appliances, the Vivos Versa must be worn nightly for life in order to remain clinically
effective. We believe many Vivos Versa patients will eventually migrate up to our proprietary Vivos CARE products. While we do not
own this product, we are a reseller of this product. |
|
○ |
Vivos
MyoCorrect oral myofunctional therapy (OMT) services. Studies have shown OMT to be a clinically valuable adjunctive treatment
for patients with breathing and sleep disorders. When combined with Vivos’ CARE products and treatments, OMT can deliver an
enhanced effect in many patients using our appliances. MyoCorrect treatment services are cost-effective for providers and convenient
for patients. MyoCorrect is billable to medical insurance in most cases and constitutes an additional profit center for both Vivos
and providers. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
Vivos
Vida ™ is an FDA cleared appliance as unspecified classification for the alleviation of TMD symptoms, and aids in treating
bruxism and TMJ Dysfunction. The Vivos Vida help to alleviate symptoms such as TMJ/TMD, headaches and facial muscle pain. The Vivos
Vida is worn during sleep, and serves to protect the teeth and restorations from destructive forces of bruxism. It is a custom fabricated
appliance, designed for patient comfort. |
|
|
|
|
○ |
Vivos
Vida Sleep ™ is an FDA 510(k) cleared Class II for treating mild to moderate OSA in adults. It uses the Vivos Unilateral
BiteBlock Technology and is designed to advance the mandible incrementally to stabilize the patient’s oropharyngeal airway.
It is highly efficient and has a sleep design which promotes space for the tongue to sit in the roof of the palate. It’s novel
design decreases contact points between the maxillary and mandibular teeth that may help reduce clenching and overall bite forces
that occur during sleep. |
|
● |
VivoScore
(from SleepImage), Rhinomanometry (from GM Instruments), Cone Beam Computerized Tomography or CBCT (from multiple vendors), Joint
Vibration Analysis (from BioResearch) and other key diagnostic technologies play an essential role as part of The Vivos Method
in patient assessment, proper clinical diagnosis, treatment planning, progress measurement, and optimal outcome facilitation. We
believe the combination and integration of such diagnostic tools and equipment as particularly taught to and practiced by Vivos-trained
providers constitutes a key trade secret of our company. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Vivos
AireO2 is an Electronic Health Record (EHR) software program specifically designed for use as a full practice
management software program in a medical or dental practice environment where treating breathing and sleep disorders is performed.
The program is very well suited to handle both medical and dental billing and is integral in our Treatment Navigator program. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Adjunctive
Treatment from specialty chiropractors and other healthcare providers according to a very specific set of particular integrated
protocols has also proven to enhance and improve clinical outcomes using CARE and other Vivos devices. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Treatment
Navigator is our most recent program to assist a clinician’s patients who may have a breathing or sleep disorder to
get screened, diagnosed by a board-certified sleep specialist, obtain insurance verification of benefits and preauthorization (where
required), have their questions answered, and receive assistance with scheduling, financing, medical billing or any other concerns
regarding treatment options best suited to their individual situation. Dentists typically pay set fees to us for this service. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Vivos
Billing Intelligence Service (BIS) is our medical and dental billing service. It is both a subscription and fee for service
program for healthcare practitioners who wish to optimize their insurance reimbursement by leveraging both medical and dental benefits.
We are unaware of any other software platform or service on the market that offers the same set of features or capabilities. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Vivos
Airway Intelligence Service (AIS) is our technical support and advisory service that supports clinicians in their patient
data analysis, case selection, treatment planning and treatment implementation. AIS reports and services are priced into the cost
of appliances to providers. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
Vivos Institute® (TVI) is widely regarded as one of the top educational and learning centers for dentofacial related
breathing and sleep disorders in North America. Opened in 2021, TVI is housed in a state-of-the-art 18,000 square foot facility near
the Denver International Airport where doctors from around the world come to receive instruction and advanced clinical training in
a wide range of topics delivered by leading national and international medical sleep specialists, cardiologists, pediatric sleep
specialists, dentists, orthodontists, specially trained chiropractors, nutritionists, key industry business leaders, and university-based
clinical researchers. |
These
products and services are used in a collaborative multidisciplinary treatment model comprising dentists, general practice physicians,
sleep specialist physicians, myofunctional therapists, nutritionists, chiropractors, physical therapists, and healthcare professionals.
Our subscription-based program to train dentists and offer them other value-added services is called the Vivos Integrated Practice
(VIP) program.
During
2023, we expanded our product portfolio by acquiring certain devices (now known as Vivos Vida, Vivos Versa
and Vivos Vida Sleep) from Advanced Facialdontics, LLC. During 2022, we commenced and grew our screening and home sleep
test (or HST) program (which we call our VivoScore Program) featuring SleepImage® technology,
a 510(k) cleared ring-based recorder and diagnostic platform for home sleep apnea testing. We market and distribute our SleepImage HST
in the U.S. and Canada pursuant to a licensing agreement with MyCardio LLC. Based on our direct experience with our Vivos-trained providers,
approximately 61,000 VivoScore HSTs were performed during 2023. Due to the volume of business that we have generated with MyCardio LLC,
we now receive pricing and terms for SleepImage® products and services that are well below their published retail prices.
We believe the rapid growth of our VivoScore program confirms our belief that the SleepImage® HST offers significant commercial
advantages over existing home sleep apnea products and technologies in the market and allows healthcare providers to more efficiently
screen, diagnose and initiate treatment for OSA in their patients.
We
have not yet seen a corresponding increase in patient enrollment in The Vivos Method treatment, however, and based on feedback from our
Vivos-trained providers, we believe this to be a function of staffing turnover and labor shortages that continue to plague the dental
workplace. Throughout 2023, we continued to address this by conducting additional regional dental team training sessions on integrating
Vivos products and treatments. In addition, we drastically reduced the number of Practice Advisors who had previously been dispatched
as “boots on the ground” to help facilitate case starts and provide Vivos-trained providers with support, and we replaced
them with a new service called Treatment Navigator which we piloted and rolled out in the late summer and fall of 2022.
Treatment
Navigators work effectively as extensions of the dental office, working directly with perspective patients to provide them information
on The Vivos Method, aiding in education, screening, insurance verification of benefits and preauthorization, coordination among various
professional practitioners, recordkeeping, problem solving, as well as, delivering a home sleep test and following up with scheduling
an appointment with a VIP in their area. Dental offices who wish to avail themselves of this service pay Vivos enrollment fees and per
case fees for the service, thus adding an important new revenue line and profit center to the business. Based on our evaluation of the
Treatment Navigator program, we have restructured the Treatment Navigator program into a monthly subscription-based model.
New
Marketing and Distribution Alliance Strategy
In
June 2024, we announced the execution of a strategic marketing and distribution alliance with Rebis Health Holdings, LLC (who we refer
to as Rebis), an operator of multiple sleep testing and treatment centers in Colorado. This alliance, which we hope will be the first
of a series of similar alliances across the country, marks an important pivot in our marketing and distribution model for our cutting
edge OSA appliances. Under the new alliance, we are collaborating with Rebis to offer OSA patients a full spectrum of evidence-based
treatments such as our own advanced, proprietary and FDA-cleared CARE oral medical devices, oral appliances and additional adjunctive
therapies and methods including CPAP machines. As of the date of this prospectus, the program has commenced in two of Rebis’ existing
sleep treatment centers in Colorado.
This
strategic alliance was announced alongside a $7.5 million equity private placement by us with an affiliate of New Seneca Partners, Inc.
(who we refer to as Seneca). The new marketing and distribution strategic alliance is based on a revenue-sharing model between us and
Rebis. Subject to certain conditions, Seneca will participate in our net cash flow allocation from the alliance up to an agreed-upon
amount as partial consideration for the management advisory services Seneca is providing to us.
Summary
of Risks Affecting Our Business
Investing
in our common stock is highly speculative and involves significant risks and uncertainties. In evaluating our company, our business
and any investment in our company, readers should carefully consider the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors”
in this prospectus and the risk factors incorporated by reference from Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning on
Page 25, as filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024 (see “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference”).
Emerging
Growth Company Under the JOBS Act
We
are an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act.
We will remain an EGC until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235
billion or more; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our initial public
offering; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv)
the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC. For so long as we remain an EGC, we are permitted
and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging
growth companies. These exemptions include:
|
● |
not
being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404; |
|
|
|
|
● |
not
being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory
audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial
statements; |
|
|
|
|
● |
being
permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements,
with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”
disclosure; |
|
|
|
|
● |
reduced
disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
exemptions
from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute
payments not previously approved. |
We
may take advantage of these provisions until December 31, 2025 (the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our
initial public offering) if we continue to be an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have
more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 million in market value of our shares held by non-affiliates or issue
more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these
reduced burdens. We have elected to provide two years of audited financial statements. Additionally, we have elected to take advantage
of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for
complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier
of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition
period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act.

In a concurrent private placement, we are also selling
to the purchasers of shares of our common stock in this offering Purchase Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 709,220 shares
of our common stock. The Purchase Warrants will have an exercise price of $4.81 per share, will be exercisable immediately upon issuance

RISK
FACTORS
Investing
in our securities is speculative involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and all
of the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, including the risk factors described in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and all other information
contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus before deciding whether to
purchase the securities offered hereby. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and
adversely affected by these risks.
Risks
Related to Our Business
We
are placing significant emphasis on our new provider-based marketing and distribution model to grow our revenues. This new model is unproven
and may not produce the benefits we anticipate. This makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk of
your investment.
In
June 2024, we announced the execution of a strategic marketing and distribution alliance with Rebis, an operator of multiple sleep testing
and treatment centers in Colorado. This alliance, which we hope will be the first of a series of similar alliances across the country,
marks an important pivot in our marketing and distribution model for our cutting edge OSA appliances. Under the new alliance, we are
collaborating with Rebis to offer OSA patients a full spectrum of evidence-based treatments such as CPAP machines, and our own advanced,
proprietary and FDA-cleared CARE oral medical devices, oral appliances and additional adjunctive therapies and methods. This new model
differs from our current model which emphasizes a subscription-based relationship with our VIP dentists together with sales of our OSA
devices to VIPs and the provision of services to VIPs. The new marketing and distribution strategic alliance is based on a revenue-sharing
model between us and Rebis.
We
are placing significant emphasis on establishing and growing this new model as a means of increasing our revenue. However, this new model
is unproven and we have no operating history associated with this new model. There is therefore a lack of information for you to evaluate
our future prospects utilizing this new model. Moreover, there is a material risk that this new model will not increase our revenues
or be additive to our stockholders’ equity in the manner we anticipate. Our inability to introduce and scale this marketing and
distribution model would materially harm our business and operating results and likely cause our stock price to suffer.
Risks
Related to This Offering
We
issued a large number of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock in connection with our recent financing activities.
Substantial future sales of such shares of our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or have other
adverse effects on our company.
In
connection with our private placement financing activities since November 2023, we issued a large number of shares and warrants to purchase
common stock. We registered such shares and shares underlying warrants totaling an aggregate of 130,000 shares of common stock and 2,811,179
shares of common stock underlying warrants or pre-funded warrants for public resale. We also issued 1,363,812 shares of common stock
and warrants to a placement agent to purchase up to 95,467 shares of common stock in connection with a registered direct financing in
September 2024. While registered, these shares will be freely tradable. Sales of a substantial number of these shares in the public
market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock or cause such market price
to decline significantly. Such sales or the perception that such sales might occur could also impair our ability to raise capital through
the sale of additional equity securities. We are unable to predict with any certainty the effect that such sales, or the perception that
such sales may occur, may have on the prevailing market price of our shares or other adverse impacts that this situation could have on
our company.
Our
management will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from this offering, you may not agree with how we use the proceeds
and the proceeds may not be invested successfully.
Our
management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this offering and could use them for purposes other than
those contemplated at the time of commencement of this offering. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding
the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds
are being used appropriately. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable,
or any, return for us. The failure of our management to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
You
will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of the common stock you purchase.
Since
the price per share of our common stock being offered is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common
stock, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering.
Based on an offering price of $4.935 per share, if you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate
and substantial dilution of $3.56 per share with respect to the net tangible book value of the common stock. See the section
entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you invest in this offering.
You
may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings and other issuances of our common stock or other securities. In
addition, this offering and future equity offerings and other issuances of our common stock or other securities may adversely affect
our common stock price.
In
order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into
or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may not be able to
sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid
by the investor in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing
stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock or securities convertible into common stock
in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering. You will incur dilution upon exercise of any
outstanding stock options, warrants or upon the issuance of shares of common stock under our stock incentive programs. We cannot predict
the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of common stock or the availability of those shares for sale will have on the market
price of our common stock.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We
estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $3.05 million, after deducting the placement agent’s
fees and the estimated offering expenses payable by us (excluding proceeds, if any, from the exercise of Purchase Warrants or placement
agent warrants). We intend to use the proceeds of this offering for acquisitions or strategic partnerships with businesses synergistic
with the business of the Company and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The
precise amount and timing of the application of such net proceeds will depend upon our funding requirements and the availability and
cost of other funds. Our board of directors and management will have considerable discretion in the application of the net proceeds from
this offering, and it is possible that we may allocate the proceeds differently than investors in the offering may desire or that we
may fail to maximize the return on these proceeds. You will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of proceeds
from this offering, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being
used appropriately.
We
may temporarily invest the net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities.
DIVIDEND
POLICY
We
have not declared or paid dividends to stockholders since inception and do not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance our growth.
DILUTION
Purchasers
of shares of our common stock in this offering will experience an immediate dilution of the net tangible book value per share of our
common stock. Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024 was approximately $4,439,131, or $0.93 per share,
of our common stock (based upon 4,765,300 shares of our common stock outstanding as of that date). Net tangible book value per share
is equal to our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our outstanding common stock.
Dilution
per share of common stock equals the difference between the amount paid by purchasers of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.
Based on the sale by us in
this offering of 709,220 shares of common stock at an offering price of $4.935 per share, after deducting estimated offering
expenses and placement agent’s fees and expenses payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30,
2024 would have been approximately $7,493,181, or $1.37 per share of our common stock. This represents an immediate increase
in pro forma net tangible book value to existing stockholders of $0.44 per share of our common stock and an immediate dilution
to purchasers in this offering of $3.56 per share of our common stock.
The following table illustrates this per-share of our common stock dilution: | |
| |
Offering price per share of common stock | |
$ | 4.935 | |
Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2024 | |

offering | |

The
information above is as of the September 30, 2024 and excludes, as of that date (vested and unvested):
| ● | 1,248,199
shares of common stock underlying options to purchase shares of our common stock issued and
outstanding as with a weighted average exercise price of $8.73 per share; |
| | |
| ● | 579,514
shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our outstanding equity incentive
plans; |
| | |
| ● | 8,899,093
shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock warrants with
a weighted exercise price of $3.04 per share, which comprises of: |
| ● | 2,705,768
shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding pre-funded common stock
warrants with an exercise price of $0.0001 per share; |
| | |
| ● | 2,717,652
shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding short and long-term warrants
with a weighted average exercise price of $4.49 per share; |
| | |
| ● | 3,220,266
shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding pre-funded common stock
warrants with an exercise price of $2.204 per share; and |
| | |
| ● | 95,467
shares of our common stock underlying the placement agent warrants to be issued to the placement
agent in connection with our registered direct offering in September 2024 |
| ● | 709,220
shares of our common stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Purchase Warrants; and |
| | |
| ● | up
to 49,645 shares
of our common stock underlying the placement agent warrants to be issued to the placement
agent in connection with this offering. |
To
the extent that outstanding exercisable options or warrants are exercised, you may experience further dilution. In addition, we may need
to raise additional capital and to the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity or convertible debt securities your
ownership will be further diluted.
PRIVATE
PLACEMENT TRANSACTION
In
a concurrent private placement, or the Private Placement Transaction, we are selling to purchasers of our common stock in this offering
Purchase Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 709,220 shares of our common stock.
The
following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Purchase Warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject
to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the Purchase Warrant, the form of which will be filed as an exhibit to our Current
Report on Form 8-K. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of Purchase Warrant for a complete
description of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Warrants.
The
Purchase Warrants and the shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Purchase Warrants are not being registered under
the Securities Act, are not being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and are being offered
pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. Accordingly,
purchasers may only sell shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Purchase Warrants pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act covering the resale of those shares, an exemption under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or another applicable
exemption under the Securities Act.
Exercisability.
The Purchase Warrants will be exercisable immediately upon issuance and at any time thereafter up to two years from the date of issuance,
at which time any unexercised Purchase Warrants will expire and cease to be exercisable. The Purchase Warrants will be exercisable, at
the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement
registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Purchase Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available
for the issuance of such shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of such shares,
by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise. If at the time
of exercise a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Purchase Warrants under the
Securities Act is not effective or available, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the Purchase Warrant through
a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according
to the formula set forth in the Purchase Warrant. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise
of a Purchase Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied
by the exercise price or round up to the next whole share.
Exercise
Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates)
would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Purchase
Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage, provided that any increase will not be effective until the 61st
day after such election.
Exercise
Price. The Purchase Warrants will have an exercise price of $4.81 per share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment
in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting
our common stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.
Transferability.
Subject to applicable laws, the Purchase Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.
Exchange
Listing. There is no established trading market for the Purchase Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition,
we do not intend to apply for the listing of the Purchase Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without
an active trading market, the liquidity of the Purchase Warrants will be limited.
Fundamental
Transactions. If a fundamental transaction occurs, then the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for us, and may
exercise every right and power that we may exercise and will assume all of our obligations under the Purchase Warrants with the same
effect as if such successor entity had been named in the Purchase Warrant itself. If holders of our common stock are given a choice as
to the securities, cash or property to be received in a fundamental transaction, then the holder shall be given the same choice as to
the consideration it receives upon any exercise of the Purchase Warrant following such fundamental transaction.
Rights
as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of
our common stock, the holder of a Purchase Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including
any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Purchase Warrant.
Registration
Rights. We have agreed to file a registration statement covering of the resale of the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Purchase
Warrants (the “Purchase Warrant Shares”) within 30 days of the date of the securities purchase agreement entered into between
the purchasers and us. We must use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within 90
days following the closing date of the offering and to keep such registration statement effective at all times until the purchasers no
longer own any Purchase Warrants or Purchase Warrant Shares.
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
Pursuant
to an engagement letter agreement dated May 2, 2024, as amended (the “Engagement Letter”), we have engaged H.C. Wainwright
& Co, LLC (“Wainwright” or the “placement agent”) to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with
this offering. Under the terms of the Engagement Letter, Wainwright is not purchasing the shares offered by us in this offering, and
is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares, but will assist us in this offering on a reasonable best-efforts
basis. The terms of this offering were subject to market conditions and negotiations between us, Wainwright and prospective investors.
Wainwright will have no authority to bind us by virtue of the Engagement Letter. Wainwright may engage sub-agents or selected dealers
to assist with this offering. We may not sell the entire amount of the shares offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement.
The
placement agent proposes to arrange for the sale of the shares we are offering pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying
prospectus to one or more institutional or accredited investors through securities purchase agreements directly between the purchaser
and us. We will only sell to such investors who have entered into the securities purchase agreement with us.
We
have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute
to payments the placement agent may be required to make in respect thereof.
Pursuant
to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, from the date hereof until 45 days after the closing date of this offering,
we may not issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of common stock or common
stock equivalents, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the securities purchase agreement.
In
addition, we have also agreed with the purchasers of our common stock, subject to certain exceptions, from the date of this prospectus
supplement until one year after the closing date of this offering, that we will not effect or enter into an agreement to effect a “Variable
Rate Transaction” as defined in the securities purchase agreement.
Fees
and Expenses; Placement Agent Warrants
We
have agreed to pay the placement agent a placement agent fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate purchase price of the shares of our common
stock sold in this offering. The following table shows the per share and total cash placement agent’s fees we will pay to the placement
agent in connection with the sale of the shares of our common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus, assuming the purchase of all of the shares offered hereby.

In
addition, we have agreed to pay Wainwright a management fee equal to 1% of the gross proceeds raised in the offering or
$35,000. We have also agreed to reimburse the placement agent a non-accountable expense allowance of $25,000, an expense
allowance of $50,000 for fees and expenses of its legal counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses and $15,950 for its
clearing fees. We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding the placement agent’s fees, will
be approximately $75,000. In addition, we have agreed to pay Wainwright the following compensation in connection with any
future exercise of the Purchase Warrants: (i) a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price paid in cash with
respect to the exercise of such Purchase Warrants; and (ii) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price
paid in cash with respect to the exercise of such Purchase Warrants and issue to Wainwright (or its designees) warrants to purchase
shares of our common stock representing 7.0% of the shares of common stock underlying the such Purchase Warrants that have been
exercised.
At
the closing of this offering, we will also issue to Wainwright or its designees, warrants (the “Wainwright Warrants”) to
purchase 49,645 shares of common stock (7.0% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued in this offering). The
Wainwright Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Purchase Warrants, except that they have an exercise price per
share equal to $6.1688 (125% of the offering price per share in this offering).
The
placement agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions
received by them and any profit realized on the resale of the shares sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting
discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements
of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 415(a)(4)
under the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of
purchases and sales of shares by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent:
| ● | may
not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities; and |
| | |
| ● | may
not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase
any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed
its participation in the distribution. |

Business
Overview
We
are a revenue stage medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative treatment alternatives
for patients with dentofacial abnormalities and/or patients diagnosed with mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We believe
our products represent a significant improvement in the treatment of mild-to-moderate OSA versus other treatments such as continuous
positive airway pressure (or CPAP) or palliative oral appliance therapies. We call our alternative and multidisciplinary treatment protocol
the Vivos Method.
The
Vivos Method is an advanced therapeutic protocol, which combines the use of customized oral appliance specifications and proprietary
clinical protocols developed by our company and prescribed by specially trained dentists in cooperation with their medical colleagues.
The Vivos Method features Vivos’ FDA registered and cleared Class I and Class II oral appliances. The Vivos Method features the
following oral appliances, combined with our proprietary clinical protocols:
|
● |
Mandibular
Repositioning Nighttime Appliance (or mRNA appliance®). FDA Class II. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Modified
Mandibular Repositioning Nighttime Appliance (or mmRNA appliance), for which we were granted U.S. Food and Drug Administration
market clearance in August 2021 for treating mild to moderate OSA and snoring in adults. FDA Class II. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Daytime
Nighttime Appliance (or DNA appliance®). FDA Class I. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Pre-formed
guide and rescue appliances which we refer to collectively as Vivos Guides or Guides. FDA Class I |
We
believe the Vivos Method technology and associated protocols represents the first non-surgical, non-invasive and cost-effective treatment
for people with mild-to-moderate OSA. Combining technologies and protocols that alter the size, shape and position of the tissues of
a patient’s upper airway, the Vivos Method opens oral and airway space and can significantly reduce symptoms and conditions associated
with mild-to-moderate OSA. Published studies have shown that using our customized appliances and clinical protocols led to significantly
lower Apnea Hypopnea Index scores and improve other conditions associated with OSA. Our patented oral appliances have proven effective
(within the scope of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (or FDA) cleared uses) in approximately 25,000 patients treated worldwide
by more than 1,450 trained dentists.
The
House of Delegates of the American Dental Association in 2017 adopted a policy statement describing the important role dentists can play
in helping identify patients at greater risk of sleep related breathing disorders. By focusing our business model around dentists, we
fulfil this role by training dentists and providing the support to use the Vivos Method with their patients that suffer from mild-to-moderate
OSA. Our program to train dentists and offer them other value-added services is called the Vivos Integrated Practice (VIP) program.
The VIP program provides dentists with a strong economic incentive to provide this treatment and prescribe the Vivos Method, together
with practice support services.
Sleep
apnea is a serious and chronic disease that negatively impacts a patient’s sleep, health and quality of life. According to a 2019
article published in Chest Physician, it is estimated that OSA afflicts 54 million adults in the U.S. alone, and according to
a 2016 report by Frost & Sullivan, OSA has an annual societal cost of over $149.6 billion. According to the study “Global
Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)” conducted by an international panel of leading researchers, nearly 1 billion people
worldwide have sleep apnea.
The
Vivos Method is estimated to be effective in approximately 80% of cases of obstructive sleep apnea where patients are compliant with
clinical protocols. Approximately 1 billion people globally suffer from OSA, and as many as 80% remain undiagnosed. Research has shown
that when left untreated, OSA can increase the risk of comorbidities, such as high blood pressure, heart failure, stroke, diabetes, dementia,
chronic pain and other debilitating, life-threatening diseases.
In
February 2021, we launched our SleepImage® home sleep test (HST), a 510(k) cleared ring-based diagnostic technology
for home sleep apnea testing featuring what we believe to be significant commercial advantages over existing home sleep apnea products
and technologies in the market. We believe our SleepImage HST may enable healthcare providers to more efficiently screen, diagnose and
initiate treatment for OSA in their patients which could result in more patients being treated through the Vivos Method. Initially, we
anticipated increased revenue from our HST due to an expected increase in total patients tested for OSA and a corresponding increase
in patient enrolment in Vivos Method treatment. In January 2022, we announced significant increases across several key metrics for our
SleepImage HST, including in particular, for the three-months ended December 31, 2021, versus the three-months ended December 31, 2020:
(i) an 18 times increase in the total number of HSTs given across the VIP network, (ii) a 5.7 times increase in the number of VIPs administering
HSTs and (iii) a 3 times increase in the average number of HSTs being administered per VIP. We believe this performance gain in
home sleep testing allowed us to renegotiate our commercial agreement with SleepImage to lower costs and convert the entire diagnostic
program from a loss leader aimed primarily at stimulating new case starts with sleep apnea treatment using the Vivos Method to a potential
recurring revenue center. Under the new revenue model with SleepImage, we will lease out the SleepImage ring recorders to VIPs at a fixed
price that includes a full month’s worth of diagnostic sleep test reports. This potential new revenue center is as yet unproven,
but we expect to see positive results during 2022.
Our
Mission
Our
mission is to rid the world of OSA. We believe we are well-positioned with what we consider to be a disruptive technology in our
Vivos Method aimed at treating mild-to-moderate OSA and dentofacial abnormalities, with a clear first-mover strategy in penetrating the
dental market as a means of treating OSA, compelling economics at each level of the delivery chain, and a talented team of experienced
professionals who are passionate about what we do and driven to deliver results.
Our
Market Opportunity
Estimates
from publicly available information vary as to the extent of obstructive sleep apnea in the United States, but we believe the market
is significant. According to a 2010 publicly available analysis from researchers at the Harvard Medical School Division of Sleep Medicine,
mild obstructive sleep apnea is defined by an apnea-hypopnea index (or AHI) of between 5 and 15 and has a prevalence of 8-11% of the
adult population in the United States. A 2004 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association stated the prevalence
of mild obstructive sleep apnea is one in five adults. Based on our analysis of the available public information, we estimate that approximately
15% of the adult population in the United States and Canada suffers from mild-to-moderate OSA. Based on the estimated total adult population
of 284 million in the United States and Canada, we believe the total addressable United States and Canadian market is approximately 43
million adults. Our estimates set forth below relating to the intended uses of the Vivos Method are also based in part upon data found
in the study Oral Appliance Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea: An Update, published publicly by the National Institutes of
Health in 2014. Targeted treatment projections identified by this method of sleep titration were found to result in effective treatment
in 87% of patients predicted to be successfully treated of OSA in an initial study. To be conservative and based on available data and
our internal market analysis, we estimate that over 80% of individuals diagnosed with OSA in the North American addressable market may
be candidates for the Vivos Method, leaving us with a total addressable consumer market of over 43.2 million adults.
We
currently charge clinicians an average sales price of approximately $1,600 per adult case for the Vivos Method. There are
approximately 200,000 general dentists and dental specialists in the United States and another 30,000 in Canada who could
potentially offer the Vivos Method to their patients. Based on the addressable US and Canadian consumer market described above
and average sales price, we believe the addressable consumer market for adults in the United States and Canada is approximately $69
billion.
Our
Treatment Alternative for OSA – the Vivos Method
The
Vivos Method is a non-invasive, non-surgical, non-pharmaceutical, multi-disciplinary treatment modality for the treatment of mild to
moderate OSA. The proprietary and virtually painless Vivos Method enhances and increases the upper airway and offers patients what we
believe to be an effective treatment alternative based on clinical retrospective data showing that some patients diagnosed with mild-to-moderate
OSA, snoring and SDB symptoms are improving. Based on VIP and patient feedback we have received, we believe initial therapeutic benefits
from using the device are often achieved relatively quickly (in days or weeks) and final clinical results are typically achieved in 12
to 24 months), all at a relatively low cost to consumers ranging between $7,000 and $10,000 for adults and $3,500 to $6,000 for children
(costs vary by provider) when compared to other options such as surgery.
We
believe that the Vivos Method alters the size, shape and position of the tissues that surround and comprise the functional space known
as the upper airway. This belief is based on retrospective raw data with validated before and after sleep studies and Cone Beam Computerized
Tomography (CBCT) scans from treating clinicians and patient testimony. As the Vivos Method treatment process progresses, the airway
expands, with many patients reporting a significant reduction of their mild-to-moderate OSA symptoms. Our primary product used in the
Vivos Method is the mRNA appliance®, a specifically designed, custom oral appliance that is worn primarily in the evening
hours and overnight and is available for adults. The total treatment time can range from 12 to 24 months with 18 months being the approximate
mean treatment time. Our appliances require periodic adjustments some of which can be performed by the patient and others that are typically
rendered at the dental office where treatment was initiated. Through the course of treatment with the Vivos Method, patients have reported
a variety of outcomes, including:
|
● |
Reduction
of snoring; |
|
● |
Reduction
in AHI level and/or other indicators of mild-to-moderate OSA; |
|
● |
Relief
of mild-to-moderate OSA symptoms; |
|
● |
Restoration
and improvement of normal (nasal) breathing; |
|
● |
Improvement
in overall sleep quality; |
|
● |
Reduction
in the need for other lifetime treatment options such as CPAP; |
|
● |
Restoration
and maintenance of proper facial symmetry and alignment; |
|
● |
Craniofacial
and orthodontic correction; |
|
● |
Resolution
of TMJ pain, clicking, and locking; and |
|
● |
Facial
aesthetic improvement, including a broader smile and reduced ‘gummy smile’. |
Our
Growth Strategy
Our
goal is to be the global leader in providing a clinically effective non-surgical, non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical, and low-cost alternative
for patients with sleep disordered breathing, including mild-to-moderate OSA. We believe the following strategies will play a critical
role in achieve this goal and our future growth:
|
● |
Expand
our North American (U.S. and Canada) sales and marketing organization to drive adoption of our Vivos Method. We intend to
rapidly and efficiently grow our sales and marketing organization in order to target and expand our network of Vivos Integrated Practices. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Drive
medical and dental community awareness of the Vivos Method. We intend to continue to promote awareness of the value proposition
of the Vivos Method through training and educating dentists, physicians, and other healthcare providers. |
|
● |
Continue
to establish indirect marketing channels. We have entered and plan to expand strategic alliances within the medical and dental
communities to increase awareness of our products. For example, in August 2021, we announced a new cooperative relationship with
Empower Sleep, a San Bernardino, California-based company empowering patients with affordable, accessible and personalized
telemedicine sleep care, to provide critical diagnostic and medical consultation services to people across North America who suffer
from OSA. We plan to leverage each company’s core technologies to provide a user-friendly platform with personalized insights
for patients who are being screened for OSA by North American dentists and other healthcare providers. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Build
patient awareness of the Vivos Method. We also plan to continue building patient awareness through our direct-to-patient
marketing initiatives which we anticipate will include celebrity endorsements, paid search, radio, television, social media, company
sponsored events, corporate wellness programs, and online video. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Invest
in research and development to drive innovation and expand indications. We are committed to ongoing research and development
and we intend to invest in our business to further improve our products and validate our value proposition. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Pursue
strategically adjacent markets and international opportunities. We believe there is a significant opportunity for our products
outside the United States. We have begun an initial assessment of the development and commercialization of the Vivos Method for markets
outside of North America, and we plan to conduct further strategic evaluation of such markets as we expand our market penetration
throughout the United States and Canada. |
Our
Revenue Model
Our
revenue is derived from three primary sources, namely (1) VIP enrolment and training fees (comprised of one-time, up-front fees, as well
as optional renewal fees after 12 months); (2) recurring Vivos Method sales; and (3) recurring fees from practice management programs
and strategic initiatives, each as described below:
|
● |
VIP
office training and enrollment fees. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Recurring
Vivos Method appliance sales. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Recurring
VIP subscription fees. |
|
|
|
|
● |
SleepImage
HST revenue. As described above, we recently modified our agreement with SleepImage relating to our HST for sleep apnea,
which creates the potential for revenue from our leasing of SleepImage HST rings to our VIPs. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
Vivos Institute. Opened in August 2021, our Vivos Institute provides advanced post-graduate education and certification in
the emerging science of Pneumopedics® and product-specific training for the use of Vivos products and services. Revenue from
such courses is not material at the present time. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
Airway Intelligence Service (AIS.) This service provides a complete resource for VIPs to help simplify the diagnostic and
appliance design matrix and expedite the treatment planning process. AIS is provided as part of the price of each appliance and is
not a separate revenue stream. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Billing
Intelligence Services (BIS). This complete billing solution includes a comprehensive integrated revenue cycle management
software system that allows dentists to focus on running their practice and delivering the best care for their patients. Our medical
billing service generates recurring subscription fees from participating VIPs. |
|
● |
AireO2
Patient Management Software. This management software enables healthcare professionals to diagnose, treat and monitor
patients with OSA and its related conditions more effectively. Developed in collaboration with Lyon Dental, AireO2 contains
features that enhance a VIP’s billing services and practice management systems. AireO2 is a complement to our BIS
software system. On April 14, 2021, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Lyon Management and Consulting, LLC and its
affiliates to acquire certain medical billing and practice management software, licenses and contracts, including the software underlying
AireO2. The asset acquisition allows us to expand and enhance our current medical billing practice through our BIS division. The

Medical
Integration Division (MID). In late 2020, we launched our MID to assist VIP practices to establish clinical collaboration
ties to local primary care physicians, sleep specialists, ENTs, cardiologists, pediatricians, pulmonologists and other healthcare
providers who routinely see or treat patients with sleep and breathing disorders. The primary objective of our MID is to promote
the Vivos Method to medical providers and thus facilitate the potential for more SDB and OSA patients gaining access to the Vivos
Method while offering continuum of care. The MID seeks to fulfill that objective by meeting with VIP dentists and medical providers
in their local areas to establish physician practices using the trademarked name “Pneusomnia Sleep Reimagined Center”
(Pneusomnia Center). These independent medical practices will be managed by our company under a management and development agreement
which pays us six (6%) percent of all net revenue from sleep-related services. We also collect a development fee for each clinic
prior to opening establishing all operational protocols. We have built into our core MID business model a great degree of flexibility,
such that elements of each Pneusomnia Center as described above may change and be adapted to local state laws and regulations, and
entity formation laws as any such alterations do not violate any state or federal statutes or regulations. We believe our early market
response from MID activities has been promising, and in March 2021 we announced the opening of the first Pneusomnia Center in Del
Mar, California, and in May 2021, the second in Modesto, California, with plans to open additional Pneusomnia Centers in several
other cities in the U.S. However, it remains too early to predict the eventual impact on our overall revenue. If successful, the
MID is expected to enhance the overall practice level economics for independent VIP offices and generate additional lines of recurring
revenue for us. |

MyoCorrect
(Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy) Program. In March 2021, we introduced orofacial myofunctional therapy (or OMT) as a service
under the name MyoCorrect. Through MyoCorrect, dentists enrolled in the VIP program will have access to trained therapists who provide
OMT via telemedicine technology. This OMT therapy will be a component of obstructive sleep apnea treatment in conjunction with our
Vivos Method which includes oral appliances and protocols. OMT, which is given by a certified OMT therapist, involves exercises and
other techniques aimed at strengthening the tongue and orofacial muscles by teaching individuals how to engage the muscles to the
appropriate position. |
Our
Competitive Strengths
We
believe that the Vivos Method has numerous advantages that, taken together, set us apart from the competition and position us for success
in the marketplace:
|
● |
Significant
barriers to entry: We believe that third parties seeking to compete directly with us have significant barriers to entry for
the following reasons: competitors must offer a treatment modality with similar features, capabilities, research support, FDA regulatory
clearances, and successful clinical outcomes in the market; then establish a comprehensive educational training program featuring
other clinical professionals with actual experience and success using that particular treatment modality to properly educate dentists
on all clinical aspects of use with patients; then develop and promulgate the systems and best practices required to successfully
integrate the treatment of mild-to-moderate OSA using this novel treatment modality in a dental practice; then establish and provide,
by recruitment and otherwise, ongoing clinical mentoring and support to dentists engaged in treating their patients for mild-to-moderate
OSA and related conditions (clinical mentors are limited and may be hard to find); and finally, assisting the dentists with case
selection, case acceptance, patient financing, and medical insurance reimbursement. We believe we have strategically and effectively
addressed each and every one of the aforementioned barriers to entry, and thus have created a novel and compelling single-source
value proposition for dentists seeking to deliver OSA treatment to their patients. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Vivos
Method insurance reimbursement: Most major commercial insurance as well as Medicare for the mmRNA appliance, reimburse for
our adult treatment in the United States. The average level of commercial payer reimbursement is approximately 50% (with coverage
ranging from 5% to 70%), although medical insurance is never a guarantee of payment, and patient deductibles and policy restrictions
will vary. Medicare reimbursement, for the mmRNA appliance, will vary by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) jurisdiction
in the US. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Body
of published research and strong patient outcomes: Together with our network of trained dentists, we have developed a body
of clinical and patient data over approximately ten years and an estimated 25,000 patients treated with our proprietary clinical
protocols that demonstrates the safety, effectiveness, therapy adherence (patient compliance), and benefits of the Vivos Method for
its 510(k) cleared and registered uses. The documented and reported benefits of treatment with the Vivos Method have been consistent
across reports from dentists, and have been highlighted in approximately 55 published studies, case reports, and articles, most of
which have been peer reviewed. We believe this favorable data provides us with a significant competitive advantage and will continue
to support increased adoption. |
|
|
|
|
● |
First
mover advantage: Our business model is the first to focus on dentists screening patients for mild-to-moderate OSA and SDB,
referring patients to physicians for diagnosis, with the dentists then serving as the primary source of treatment using the Vivos
Method for such patients. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Differentiated
products: To our knowledge, only the Vivos Method offers a truly differentiated, non-invasive treatment option that actually
works on a common root cause of OSA. Older oral appliances are typically less expensive, but do not reshape the upper airway like
the Vivos Method, and therefore require nightly use over a lifetime, and have a number of other disadvantages. |

Intellectual
property portfolio and research and development capabilities We have a comprehensive patent portfolio to protect our intellectual
property and technology, with six design patents that expire between 2023 through 2029 and four utility patents expiring in 2029
and 2030. We also own two Canadian patents and one European patent that has been validated in Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark,
Spain, France, United Kingdom, Hungary, Italy and the Netherlands, all of which expire in 2029. Our U.S. trademark portfolio consists
of 19 registered marks and one pending trademark applications. We also have one method patent pending. Extensive online and in-person
training, multiple touch point support systems, specific fabrication materials, customized appliance designs, and multi-disciplinary
treatment protocols are all considered proprietary trade secrets and competitive advantages with no known counterparts. Extensive
online and in-person training, multiple touch point support systems, specific fabrication materials, customized appliance designs,
and multi-disciplinary treatment protocols are all considered proprietary trade secrets and competitive advantages with no known
counterparts. |
|
● |
Extensive
Training and Support Systems: We believe our extensive online and in-person clinical and business systems training program
offered through our ICSM is unmatched anywhere in dentistry and is a clear competitive strength that would be difficult to replicate. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Targeted
approach to market development: We have established a systematic and scalable approach to actively and consistently engage
with our primary target audience of U.S. and Canadian dentists. In addition, our MID is actively targeting physicians and other relevant
healthcare providers in order to build awareness and collaborative patient options at our VIP practices. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Marketplace
acceptance: Patient access to the Vivos Method at a VIP practice is rapidly becoming readily available, and active VIP providers
can now be found in almost all major US cities and in many cities in Canada. |
Recent
Developments
In
January 2022, we announced the filing of a U.S. patent application related to certain new and enhanced clinical methods and protocols
developed within Vivos’ proprietary Vivos Method treatment for OSA. This new patent application was based on early field data which
revealed an additional 58% average improvement in AHI score reductions in OSA patients who had received treatment with the Vivos Method
where the revised clinical protocols were implemented.
In
December 2021, we announced that we received acceptance from a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Pricing, Data Analysis and
Coding (or PDAC) contractor for our mmRNA device for treating mild to moderate OSA and snoring in adults. This acceptance places the
mmRNA device on the PDAC list of oral appliances covered by and billable to Medicare. This development immediately makes benefits of
the mmRNA device available to millions of Medicare beneficiaries who seek effective treatment for mild to moderate OSA.
Also
in December 2021, we announced our official registration with Health Canada, the Ministry of Health department responsible for
helping Canadians maintain and improve their health through services and resources. The official registration of Vivos products will
aim to provide patients with a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for OSA patients, which incorporates clinical screening, medical diagnosis
and therapy using Vivos products. At the core of this development, we will offer our comprehensive line of highly effective oral appliances
and proprietary clinical protocols to approximately 25,000 dentists across Canada who have millions of patients in search of a solution
to sleep-related disorders, snoring and OSA.
In
October 2021, we announced a new collaboration with Candid Care Co. (or Candid), a digital platform for oral healthcare, today announced
a new collaboration that will seek to provide patients with a comprehensive, whole-mouth solution to diagnose and treat OSA in adult
patients and provide orthodontic treatment from the same provider network. At the core of this collaboration, Vivos and Candid will market
each company’s products and areas of expertise to deliver a comprehensive sleep and oral health solution to patients in the United
States and Canada. The focus of the collaboration will be Candid’s CandidPro clear aligner for straightening teeth and the Vivos
Method for treating OSA. The two companies will also share educational resources, training, and key opinion leaders to bridge the gap
between airway health and orthodontic therapy.
Also
in October 2021,we announced that results from a peer-reviewed, published study by an independent dentist found a significant reduction
of tooth decay in pediatric patients after undergoing treatment using our Vivos Guide, a flexible, BPA-free base polymer intraoral device.
Emerging
Growth Company under the JOBS Act
As
a company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company”
under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we have elected to take advantage
of reduced reporting requirements and are relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable
to public companies. As an emerging growth company:
|
● |
We
may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
are exempt from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on whether we maintained effective internal
control over financial reporting under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; |
|
|
|
|
●
|
We
are permitted to provide less extensive disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
are not required to give our stockholders non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.
|
We
may take advantage of these provisions until December 31, 2025 (the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our
initial public offering) if we continue to be an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have
more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 million in market value of our shares held by non-affiliates or issue
more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these
reduced burdens. We have elected to provide two years of audited financial statements. Additionally, we have elected to take advantage
of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for
complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier
of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition
period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act.

RISK
FACTORS
Investing

you should carefully consider the risk factors we describe in any accompanying prospectus or any future prospectus supplement, as well
as in any related free writing prospectus for a specific offering of securities, and the risk factors incorporated by reference into
this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus or such prospectus supplement. You should also carefully consider other information contained

Unless
otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from these sales for general corporate purposes, which
includes, without limitation, sales and marketing expenses generally, research and development expenses, sales and support staff and
software development including enterprise resource planning and practice management implementations. The amounts and timing of these
expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the development of our current business initiatives.
DIVIDEND
POLICY
We

stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and expansion
of our business. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon a
number of factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions
imposed by applicable law and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. Our future ability to pay cash dividends on our stock
may also be limited by the terms of any future debt or preferred securities or future credit facility.

|
|
● |
any
delayed delivery requirements; |
|
|
|
|

Act; |
|
|
|
|
● |
at
prices related to such prevailing market prices; or |
|
|
|
|
● |

Only
underwriters named in the prospectus supplement will be underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.
Underwriters
and Agents; Direct Sales
If
underwriters are used in a sale, they will acquire the offered securities for their own account and may resell the offered securities
from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices
determined at the time of sale. We may offer the securities to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters
or by underwriters without a syndicate.
Unless
the prospectus supplement states otherwise, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to the conditions
set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. Subject to certain conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all
of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement, other than securities covered by any over-allotment option. Any public offering
price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time. We may use underwriters
with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe in the prospectus supplement, naming the underwriter, the nature of any such
relationship.
We
may sell securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale
of securities, and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement
states otherwise, our agent will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We
may authorize agents or underwriters to solicit offers by certain types of institutional investors to purchase securities from us at
the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery
on a specified date in the future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation
of these contracts in the prospectus supplement.
Dealers
We
may sell the offered securities to dealers as principals. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public either at varying
prices to be determined by the dealer or at a fixed offering price agreed to with us at the time of resale.
Institutional
Purchasers
We
may authorize agents, dealers or underwriters to solicit certain institutional investors to purchase offered securities on a delayed
delivery basis pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified future date. The applicable prospectus
supplement or other offering materials, as the case may be, will provide the details of any such arrangement, including the offering
price and commissions payable on the solicitations.
We
will enter into such delayed contracts only with institutional purchasers that we approve. These institutions may include commercial
and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies and educational and charitable institutions.
Indemnification;
Other Relationships
We
may provide agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms with indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act, or contribution with respect to payments that the agents or underwriters may make with respect to these liabilities.
Agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms, and their affiliates, may engage in transactions with, or perform services for,
us in the ordinary course of business. This includes commercial banking and investment banking transactions.
Market-Making;
Stabilization and Other Transactions
There
is currently no market for any of the offered securities, other than our common stock, which is quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
If the offered securities are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending
upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and other factors. While it is possible that an underwriter could inform
us that it intends to make a market in the offered securities, such underwriter would not be obligated to do so, and any such market-making
could be discontinued at any time without notice. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to whether an active trading market will develop
for the offered securities. We have no current plans for listing of the debt securities, preferred stock, warrants or subscription rights
on any securities exchange or quotation system; any such listing with respect to any particular debt securities, preferred stock, warrants
or subscription rights will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials, as the case may be.
Any
underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation
M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering
size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing
bids do not exceed a specified maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities,
either through exercise of the over-allotment option or in the open market after the distribution is completed, to cover short positions.
Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer
are purchased in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities
to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.
Any
underwriters or agents that are qualified market makers on the Nasdaq Capital Market may engage in passive market making transactions
in our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during the business day prior
to the pricing of the offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of our common stock. Passive market makers must comply with
applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display
its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive
market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.
Passive market making may stabilize the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open
market and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
Fees
and Commissions
If
5% or more of the net proceeds of any offering of securities made under this prospectus will be received by a FINRA member participating
in the offering or affiliates or associated persons of such FINRA member, the offering will be conducted in accordance with FINRA Rule
5121.

up to $75,000,000 in the aggregate of:
|
● |
common
stock; |

|
● |

or unsecured debt securities consisting of notes, debentures or other evidences of indebtedness which may be senior debt securities,
senior subordinated debt securities or subordinated debt securities, each of which may be convertible into equity securities; or |
|
● |
units
comprised of, or other combinations of, the foregoing securities. |
We
may issue the debt securities as exchangeable for or convertible into shares of common stock, preferred stock or other securities that
may be sold by us pursuant to this prospectus or any combination of the foregoing. The preferred stock may also be exchangeable for and/or
convertible into shares of common stock, another series of preferred stock or other securities that may be sold by us pursuant to this
prospectus or any combination of the foregoing. When a particular series of securities is offered, a supplement to this prospectus will
be delivered with this prospectus, which will set forth the terms of the offering and sale of the offered securities.
Common
Stock
As
of February 4, 2022, there were 23,012,119 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held of record by approximately 5,400
stockholders. Subject to preferential rights with respect to any outstanding preferred stock, all outstanding shares of common
stock are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes.
Dividend
Rights
Holders
of the common stock may receive dividends when, as and if declared by our board of directors out of the assets legally available for
that purpose and subject to the preferential dividend rights of any other classes or series of stock of our Company. We have never paid,
and have no plans to pay, any dividends on our shares of common stock.
Voting
Rights
Holders
of the common stock are entitled to one vote per share in all matters as to which holders of common stock are entitled to vote. Holders
of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders constitute a quorum
unless otherwise required by law.
Election
of Directors
Directors
hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and are eligible for re-election at such meeting. Directors are elected by
a plurality of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.
There is no cumulative voting for directors.
Liquidation
In
the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the common stock have the right to receive ratably
and equally all of the assets remaining after payment of liabilities and liquidation preferences of any preferred stock then outstanding.
Redemption
The
common stock is not redeemable or convertible and does not have any sinking fund provisions.
Preemptive
Rights
Holders
of the common stock do not have preemptive rights.
Other
Rights
Our
common stock is not liable to further calls or to assessment by the registrant and for liabilities of the registrant imposed on its stockholders
under state statutes.
Right
to Amend Bylaws
The
board of directors has the power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws. Bylaws adopted by the board of directors may be repealed or changed,
and new bylaws made, with the requisite vote of our stockholders, and our stockholders may prescribe that any bylaw made by them shall
not be altered, amended or repealed by the board of directors.
Change
in Control
Provisions
of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make the acquisition of our company by means of a tender offer,
proxy contest or otherwise, and the removal of incumbent officers and directors, more difficult. These provisions include:
Section
203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a merger with a 15%-or-greater stockholder, such as a party that has completed a successful tender offer,
until three years after that party became a 15%-or-greater stockholder;
The
authorization in our certificate of incorporation of undesignated preferred stock, which could be issued without stockholder approval
in a manner designed to prevent or discourage a takeover; and
Provisions
in our bylaws regarding stockholders’ rights to call a special meeting of stockholders limit such rights to stockholders holding
together at least a sixty-six and two-thirds percent of the shares of the Company entitled to vote at the meeting, which could make it
more difficult for stockholders to wage a proxy contest for control of our board of directors or to vote to repeal any of the anti-takeover
provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws.
Together,
these provisions may make the removal of management more difficult and may discourage transactions that could otherwise involve payment
of a premium over prevailing market prices for our common stock.
Market,

common stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “VVOS”. The transfer agent and registrar
for our common stock is VStock Transfer, LLC.

Delaware General Corporation Law provides that the holders of preferred stock will have the right to vote separately as a class on any
proposal involving fundamental changes in the rights of holders of that preferred stock. This right is in addition to any voting rights
provided for in the applicable certificate of designation.
Our
board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting
power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. Preferred stock could be issued quickly with terms designed to delay or prevent
a change in control of our Company or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock could
have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.
Warrants
We
may issue warrants to purchase our securities or other rights, including rights to receive payment in cash or securities based on the
value, rate or price of one or more specified commodities, currencies, securities or indices, or any combination of the foregoing. Warrants
may be issued independently or together with any other securities that may be sold by us pursuant to this prospectus or any combination
of the foregoing and may be attached to, or separate from, such securities. To the extent warrants that we issue are to be publicly-traded,
each series of such warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent.
We
will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from a current
report on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, forms of the warrant and warrant agreement, if any. The prospectus supplement relating
to any warrants that we may offer will contain the specific terms of the warrants and a description of the material provisions of the
applicable warrant agreement, if any. These terms may include the following:
|
● |
the
title of the warrants; |

information
with respect to book-entry procedures, if any; and |
|

any
other terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of the warrants. |
Exercise
of Warrants. Each warrant will entitle the holder of warrants to purchase the amount of securities or other rights, at the exercise
price stated or determinable in the prospectus supplement for the warrants. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of
business on the expiration date shown in the applicable prospectus supplement, unless otherwise specified in such prospectus supplement.
After the close of business on the expiration date, if applicable, unexercised warrants will become void. Warrants may be exercised in
the manner described in the applicable prospectus supplement. When the warrant holder makes the payment and properly completes and signs
the warrant certificate at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent, if any, or any other office indicated in the prospectus supplement,
we will, as soon as possible, forward the securities or other rights that the warrant holder has purchased. If the warrant holder exercises
less than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate, we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining warrants.
Subscription
Rights
We
may issue rights to purchase our securities. The rights may or may not be transferable by the persons purchasing or receiving the rights.
In connection with any rights offering, we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or
other persons pursuant to which such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed for after
such rights offering. In connection with a rights offering to holders of our capital stock a prospectus supplement will be distributed
to such holders on the record date for receiving rights in the rights offering set by us.
We
will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from a current
report on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, forms of the subscription rights, standby underwriting agreement or other agreements, if
any. The prospectus supplement relating to any rights that we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering, including,
among other matters:
|
● |
the
date of determining the security holders entitled to the rights distribution; |
|
● |
the
aggregate number of rights issued and the aggregate amount of securities purchasable upon exercise of the rights; |
|
● |
the
exercise price; |
|
● |
the
conditions to completion of the rights offering; |
|
● |
the
date on which the right to exercise the rights will commence and the date on which the rights will expire; and |
|
● |
any
applicable federal income tax considerations. |
Each
right would entitle the holder of the rights to purchase the principal amount of securities at the exercise price set forth in the applicable
prospectus supplement. Rights may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date for the rights provided
in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, all unexercised rights will become void.
Holders
may exercise rights as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Upon receipt of payment and the rights certificate properly
completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the rights agent, if any, or any other office indicated in the prospectus
supplement, we will, as soon as practicable, forward the securities purchasable upon exercise of the rights. If less than all of the
rights issued in any rights offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to persons other than stockholders,
to or through agents, underwriters or dealers or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby underwriting arrangements,
as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Debt
Securities
As
used in this prospectus, the term “debt securities” means the debentures, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness
that we may issue from time to time. The debt securities will either be senior debt securities, senior subordinated debt or subordinated
debt securities. We may also issue convertible debt securities. Debt securities may be issued under an indenture (which we refer to herein
as an Indenture), which are contracts entered into between us and a trustee to be named therein. The Indenture has been filed as an exhibit
to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We may issue debt securities and incur additional indebtedness other
than through the offering of debt securities pursuant to this prospectus. It is likely that convertible debt securities will not be issued
under an Indenture.
The
debt securities may be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a secured or unsecured senior or subordinated basis by one or more guarantors,
if any. The obligations of any guarantor under its guarantee will be limited as necessary to prevent that guarantee from constituting
a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. In the event that any series of debt securities will be subordinated to other indebtedness
that we have outstanding or may incur, the terms of the subordination will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the
subordinated debt securities.
We
may issue debt securities from time to time in one or more series, in each case with the same or various maturities, at par or at a discount.
Unless indicated in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without the consent of the
holders of the debt securities of such series outstanding at the time of the issuance. Any such additional debt securities, together
with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of debt securities under the applicable Indenture
and will be equal in ranking.
Should
an Indenture relate to unsecured indebtedness, in the event of a bankruptcy or other liquidation event involving a distribution of assets
to satisfy our outstanding indebtedness or an event of default under a loan agreement relating to secured indebtedness of our company
or its subsidiaries, the holders of such secured indebtedness, if any, would be entitled to receive payment of principal and interest
prior to payments on the unsecured indebtedness issued under an Indenture.
Each
prospectus supplement will describe the terms relating to the specific series of debt securities. These terms will include some or all
of the following:
|
● |
the
title of debt securities and whether the debt securities are senior or subordinated; |
|
● |
any
limit on the aggregate principal amount of debt securities of such series; |
|
● |
the
percentage of the principal amount at which the debt securities of any series will be issued; |

ability to issue additional debt securities of the same series; |

purchase price for the debt securities and the denominations of the debt securities; |

specific designation of the series of debt securities being offered; |

basis for calculating interest; |

any such date for any purpose, including the principal amount thereof which shall be due and payable upon any maturity other than
the stated maturity or which shall be deemed to be outstanding as of any date prior to the stated maturity (or, in any such case,

Unless

exchange. Holders of the debt securities may present registered debt securities for exchange or transfer in the manner described in the
applicable prospectus supplement. Except as limited by the applicable Indenture, we will provide these services without charge, other
than any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the exchange or transfer.
Debt
securities may bear interest at a fixed rate or a variable rate as specified in the prospectus supplement. In addition, if specified
in the prospectus supplement, we may sell debt securities bearing no interest or interest at a rate that at the time of issuance is below
the prevailing market rate, or at a discount below their stated principal amount. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement
any special federal income tax considerations applicable to these discounted debt securities.
We
may issue debt securities with the principal amount payable on any principal payment date, or the amount of interest payable on any interest
payment date, to be determined by referring to one or more currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity indices or other factors.
Holders of such debt securities may receive a principal amount on any principal payment date, or interest payments on any interest payment
date, that are greater or less than the amount of principal or interest otherwise payable on such dates, depending upon the value on
such dates of applicable currency, commodity, equity index or other factors. The applicable prospectus supplement will contain information
as to how we will determine the amount of principal or interest payable on any date, as well as the currencies, commodities, equity indices
or other factors to which the amount payable on that date relates and certain additional tax considerations.
Units
We
may issue units consisting of any combination of the other types of securities offered under this prospectus in one or more series. We
may evidence each series of units by unit certificates that we may issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into unit agreements
with a unit agent. Each unit agent, if any, may be a bank or trust company that we select. We will indicate the name and address of the
unit agent, if any, in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of units. Specific unit agreements, if any,
will contain additional important terms and provisions. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part, or will incorporate by reference from a current report that we file with the SEC, the form of unit and the form of each unit
agreement, if any, relating to units offered under this prospectus.
If
we offer any units, certain terms of that series of units will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement, including, without
limitation, the following, as applicable:

|
● |
