CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Words such as, but not limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “targets,” “likely,” “will,” “would,” “could,” and similar expressions or phrases identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operation, business strategy and financial needs. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:

our growth;

filings we make with the SEC from time to time.

You should read thoroughly this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and/or worse than what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Other sections of this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

This prospectus and documents incorporated by reference may contain third-party data relating to the cannabis market that include projections based on a number of assumptions. The cannabis market may not grow at the rates projected by market data, or at all. The failure of this market to grow at the projected rates may have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our Common Shares. Furthermore, if any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data turns out to be incorrect, actual results may differ from the projections based on these assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this prospectus (or, in the case of a document incorporated by reference, the date on which the statements are made in such document). We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information from this prospectus or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and does not contain all information that you should consider in making your investment decision. You should carefully read the entire prospectus, including the risks of investing in our Common Shares discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also carefully read the information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including our financial statements, and the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Overview

We are a cannabis cultivation, manufacturing and distribution company whose mission is to provide premium quality medical cannabis products to patients worldwide. We are an early stage, emerging growth company headquartered in London, United Kingdom. We have a limited operating history and minimal revenues to date. Canmart Ltd. (“Canmart”) and RPK Biopharma Unipessoal, LDA (“RPK”) are our operating and wholly-owned subsidiaries. We expect to expand their local operations and develop sales channels of our medicinal-grade cannabis products and cannabis based medical and wellness products in international markets and in particular, in Europe.

Canmart Ltd

Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Canmart, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, is a licensed importer and distributor of CBPMs in the United Kingdom (UK). Canmart holds a Controlled Drug License issued by the Home Office to possess and supply CBPMs in the UK. This license expired on February 3, 2022 and needs to be renewed annually. We applied for the license renewal in January 2022, coinciding with an application to increase import capabilities to Schedule 1 (bulk product) and we are currently awaiting a response from the UK Home Office. Until such time that the renewal application is approved by the UK Home Office, Canmart can continue with its day to day business under the conditions of its existing license. Canmart is required to apply for an import license issued by the UK Home Office for every specific shipment of CBPMs and Canmart has thus far successfully been granted such import licenses. Canmart holds both a Manufacturer’s Specials License for importation of CBPMs and a Wholesale Distribution Authorization from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency.

Canmart commenced importing and distributing CBPMs in 2020. Under the current controlled drugs regulatory regime, Canmart is only able to supply to dispensing pharmacists and other wholesale distributors, tied in with prescribing and clinic partners. However, Canmart’s intention is to establish direct sales channels to patients through Canmart-owned and operated clinics and pharmacies. Canmart’s strategy is two-fold: (1) work further with our premium product suppliers on a partnership model to bring innovative  products to market that consumers demand, and (2) to grow the medical cannabis market by identifying patients with specific conditions and needs and providing easy to access education and consultations to patients about medical benefits of CBPMs based on observational clinical studies from international studies. We believe this direct sales model can enable Canmart to expand its market share effectively and efficiently.

Cannahealth Limited

Our direct wholly-owned subsidiary Cannahealth Limited (“Cannahealth”), a Republic of Malta company, is a holding company of all the ownership interests in Canmart and Holigen Holdings Limited (“Holigen”). Cannahealth does not engage in any operations.

Holigen Holdings Limited

In May 2022, our wholly owned subsidiary, Cannahealth, acquired 100% of the ordinary shares of Holigen and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, RPK, from the Flowr Corporation. Through its operations in RPK, Holigen is a producer of premium EU GMP grade indoor grown cannabis flower. The acquisition of Holigen enabled us to produce EU GMP grade cannabis flower for the European market, in particular Germany and the UK. 

RPK Biopharma Unipessoal, LDA

RPK’s operations consist of a 20,000 square foot indoor EU GMP certified grow facility located near Sintra, Lisbon, Portugal, dedicated to the cultivation of high-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) premium cannabis and yielding over 2,000 kg of flower per year. This outdoor and greenhouse expansion site in Portugal affords scalable cultivation as well as a large seven million square foot outdoor facility located in Aljustrel, Portugal. RPK currently sells over 25 percent high THC flower into Germany, the largest medical cannabis market in Europe as well as selling into the United Kingdom generating revenues and ready to scale. RPK also features a genetics and retail partnership with Cookies, one of the world’s top cannabis brands and genetics have already been received at our Portuguese facility and ready to cultivate. In addition, we believe the Sintra facility is the only commercial scale premium indoor EU GMP certified and licensed grow in Portugal. RPK generates revenue through a German company’s offtake agreement of its clean testing non-irradiated quality flower. The facility has a purpose-built design, with all unnecessary equipment residing outside of the rooms to reduce contamination risk and self-contained modular grow rooms result in better environmental control. There is no irradiation required and we believe less than 10% of licensed producer’s have this ability. RPK’s other business lines include contract manufacturing services and distribution services. RPK has a senior bank lender with a mortgage secured by the facility and an equipment leasing agreement. The Company is currently in discussions with the bank to obtain more time to restructure and bring current these agreements.

Bophelo Bio Science and Wellness (Pty) Ltd

Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Bophelo Bio Science and Wellness (Pty) Ltd (“Bophelo”), a Lesotho company, is focused on the cultivation of cannabis, the production of medical cannabis products including dried flower, oils, and other concentrates and the supply of such medical cannabis products to wholesalers in international markets. As a result of Bophelo’s liquidation, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we determined that we no longer controlled Bophelo. As a result of the loss of control, we derecognized the net assets of Bophelo and accounted for the operating results as discontinued operation.

1900 Ferne Road, Gabriola Island, British Columbia

In September 2023, Akanda acquired the right to develop a Canadian farming property in British Columbia, including farming land and related operations and licenses. We plan to develop THC and cannabinoid (CBD) facilities at this site. Additional payments to the seller will be made based upon milestones achieved from the development, including THC cultivation, sales of product, CBD cultivation, and hemp cultivation.

Corporate Information

Akanda was incorporated in the Province of Ontario, Canada on July 16, 2021 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

Our principal executive offices and mailing address are located at 1a, 1b Learoyd Road, New Romney, TN28 8XU, United Kingdom, and our telephone number is (202) 498-7917.

 RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before deciding to purchase any of our securities, you should carefully consider the discussion of risks and uncertainties under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and under similar headings in our subsequently filed reports on Form 6-K and annual reports on Form 20-F, as well as the other risks and uncertainties described in any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus and in the other documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus. The risks and uncertainties we discuss in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus are those we currently believe may materially affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operation. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless we specify otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered hereby for capital expenditures, operating capacity, working capital, general corporate purposes and the refinancing or repayment of existing indebtedness and acquisitions of complementary products, technologies or businesses. However, we currently have no present agreements or commitments for any such acquisitions. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business. As a result, unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of the offerings.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL

General

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended by our Articles of Amendment (the “Articles”), provide that our authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares, which do not have any special rights or restrictions, and an unlimited number of preferred shares (“Preferred Shares”), issuable in series, as a class.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have 5,628,295 Common Shares issued and outstanding and no Preferred Shares outstanding.

Changes to Our Share Capital

Since our incorporation, we have issued and sold the securities described below (on a post-reverse split basis) through transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

None of the foregoing transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering except that Boustead Securities, LLC served as the placement agent for the November 2021 private placement. Boustead Securities, LLC received commission under the private placement: (a) a commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds and (b) a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 0.5% of the gross proceeds. The issuances of the above securities were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, or were issued in reliance upon Regulation S of the Securities Act, to an investor who is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, in an offshore transaction (as defined in Rule 902 under Regulation S of the Securities Act), based upon representations made by such investor.

Akanda completed its initial public offering of 400,000 Common Shares at a price of $40.00 per share to the public for a total of $16,000,000 of gross proceeds, prior to deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses on March 17, 2022. The common shares began trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on March 15, 2022, under the symbol “AKAN.”

On March 9, 2023, Akanda effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its Common Shares (the “1:10 Reverse Split”). Following the 1:10 Reverse Split, Akanda consolidated its outstanding Common Shares from 48,847,904 Common Shares outstanding to 3,884,786 Common Shares outstanding.

 DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

General

We may issue warrants to purchase our common shares. The warrants may be issued independently or together with common shares offered by this prospectus and may be attached to or separate from those common shares.

While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any warrants we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any warrants that we may offer in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any warrants we offer under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms we describe below, and you should refer to the applicable prospectus supplement for the specific terms of any warrants that we offer.

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

We may issue warrants in such numerous distinct series as we determine.

We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part the form of warrant agreement, including a form of warrant certificate, that describes the terms of the series of warrants we are offering before the issuance of the related series of warrants. The following summaries of material provisions of the warrants and the warrant agreements are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the warrant agreement applicable to a particular series of warrants. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the warrants that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete warrant agreements that contain the terms of the warrants.

We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the warrants in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered, including, when applicable, the following:

Unless specified in an applicable prospectus supplement, warrants will be in registered form only.

A holder of warrant certificates may exchange them for new certificates of different denominations, present them for registration of transfer, and exercise them at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Until any warrants are exercised, holders of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the underlying common shares, including any rights to receive dividends or to exercise any voting rights, except to the extent set forth under the heading “Warrant Adjustments” below.

Exercise of Warrants

Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash common shares at the applicable exercise price set forth in, or determined as described in, the applicable prospectus supplement. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender securities as all or a part of the exercise price for the warrants. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date of the warrants, as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

Warrants may be exercised by delivering to the corporation trust office of the warrant agent or any other officer indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement (a) the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed and (b) payment of the amount due upon exercise. As soon as practicable following exercise, we will issue the underlying common shares subject to such exercise to the applicable warrantholder. If less than all of the warrants represented by a warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining warrants.

Amendments and Supplements to the Warrant Agreements

We may amend or supplement a warrant agreement without the consent of the holders of the applicable warrants to cure ambiguities in the warrant agreement, to cure or correct a defective provision in the warrant agreement, or to provide for other matters under the warrant agreement that we and the warrant agent deem necessary or desirable, so long as, in each case, such amendments or supplements do not materially and adversely affect the interests of the holders of the warrants.

Warrant Adjustments

Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states otherwise, the exercise price of, and the number of common shares covered by, a warrant will be adjusted proportionately if we subdivide or combine our common shares. In addition, unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, if we, without payment:

then the holders of warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the warrants, in addition to the common shares otherwise receivable upon exercise of the warrants and without paying any additional consideration, the amount of stock and other securities and property such holders would have been entitled to receive had they held the common shares issuable under the warrants on the dates on which holders of those securities received or became entitled to receive such additional stock and other securities and property.

Except as stated above, the exercise price and number of securities covered by a warrant, and the amounts of other securities or property to be received, if any, upon exercise of those warrants, will not be adjusted or provided for if we issue those securities or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for those securities, or securities carrying the right to purchase those securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for those securities.

Holders of warrants may have additional rights under the following circumstances:

If one of the above transactions occurs and holders of our common shares are entitled to receive stock, securities, or other property with respect to or in exchange for their common shares, the holders of the warrants then outstanding, as applicable, will be entitled to receive upon exercise of their warrants the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property that they would have received upon the applicable transaction if they had exercised their warrants immediately before the transaction.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

General

We may, from time to time, issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus in any combination. A prospectus supplement will describe the specific terms of the units offered under that prospectus supplement, and any special considerations applicable to investing in those units. You must look at the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable unit agreement for a full understanding of the specific terms of any units. We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of unit agreement, including a form of unit certificate, if any, that describes the terms of the series of units we are offering before the issuance of the related series of units. While the terms we have summarized below will generally apply to any future units that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of units that we may offer in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement and incorporated documents. The terms of any units offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below.

Units

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

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement and any incorporated documents the terms of the series of units, including the following:

The provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Common Shares” and “Description of Warrants” will apply to each unit and to any common shares or warrant included in each unit, respectively.

Issuance in Series

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

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Units

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

TAXATION

The material Canadian and U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of any of the securities offered by this prospectus will be set forth in the prospectus supplement offering those securities or incorporated by reference from our Annual Report on Form 20-F or other public filings we make with the SEC. 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities offered hereby from time to time pursuant to underwritten public offerings, negotiated transactions, block trades or a combination of these methods. We may sell the securities (1) through underwriters or dealers, (2) through agents and/or (3) directly to one or more purchasers. We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions:

We may directly solicit offers to purchase the securities being offered by this prospectus. We may also designate agents to solicit offers to purchase the securities from time to time. We will name in a prospectus supplement any agent involved in the offer or sale of our securities.

If we utilize a dealer in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

If we utilize an underwriter in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, we will execute an underwriting agreement with the underwriter at the time of sale and provide the name of any underwriter in the prospectus supplement that the underwriter will use to make resales of the securities to the public. In connection with the sale of the securities, we, or the purchasers of securities for whom the underwriter may act as agent, may compensate the underwriter in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions. The underwriter may sell the securities to or through dealers, and the underwriter may compensate those dealers in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions.

We will provide in the applicable prospectus supplement any compensation we pay to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers. Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. We may enter into agreements to indemnify underwriters, dealers and agents against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments they may be required to make in respect thereof.

An underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with applicable securities laws. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bidders to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities 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 covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the prices of the securities to be higher than they would otherwise be. The underwriters may engage in these activities on any exchange or other market in which the securities may be traded. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

The underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us, or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business. 

EXPENSES

The following table sets forth the expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters’ or agents’ compensation, if any) expected to be incurred by us in connection with a possible offering of securities registered under this registration statement.

* To be provided by a prospectus supplement or a Report on Form 6-K that is incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

LEGAL MATTERS

We are being represented by Rimon, P.C., with respect to certain legal matters as to United States federal securities and state securities law. The validity of the Common Shares offered in this offering and certain legal matters as to Canadian law will be passed upon for us by Gowling WLG (Canada) LLP.

EXPERTS

BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”), an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, and Green Growth CPAs (“Green Growth”), an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. We have included such financial statements in this prospectus in reliance on the reports of such firms given on their authority as experts in accounting and auditing. BF Borgers and Green Growth are independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB on auditor independence. BF Borgers’ headquarters are located at 5400 W Cedar Ave, Lakewood, CO 80226. Green Growth’s headquarters are located at 10250 Constellation Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90067.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

We are a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Most of our directors and executive officers reside in the United Kingdom and Canada, and significantly all of our assets and the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons or us, or to enforce against them or us judgments obtained in U.S. courts, whether or not predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or of the securities laws of any state of the United States. There is doubt as to the enforceability in foreign jurisdictions, either in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of civil liabilities predicated solely on the federal securities laws of the United States or the securities laws of any state of the United States.

In accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and pursuant to the bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”), subject to certain conditions, the Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, indemnify a director or officer, a former director or officer, or another individual who acts or acted at the Company’s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including any amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Company or other entity. We shall advance monies to a director, officer or other individual for costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such a proceeding; provided that such individual shall repay the moneys if the individual does not fulfill the conditions described below or is not successful on the merits in their defense of the action or proceeding. Indemnification is prohibited unless the individual:

Item 9. Exhibits.

The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Index to Exhibits below.

Item 10. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

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

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

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

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

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

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

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Item 8.A. of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

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

(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus.  As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such Securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date. 

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

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

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

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

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

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

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

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