SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus, the documents incorporated by
reference herein and therein, and other written and oral statements we make from time to time contain certain “forward-looking”
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended

anticipated sources of funds as well as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions.
We have included more detailed descriptions of

to differ materially from any forward-looking statement in the “Risk Factors” sections of this prospectus and the documents
incorporated by reference herein including, but not limited to, the risk factors incorporated by reference from our filings with the SEC.
We encourage you to read those descriptions carefully. Although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions, no assurance
can be given that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved. We caution investors not to place significant
reliance on forward-looking statements; such statements need to be evaluated in light of all the information contained and incorporated
by reference in this prospectus. Furthermore, the statements speak only as of the date of each document, and we undertake no obligation
to update or revise these statements.

In this prospectus, “La Rosa Holdings,”
“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar references refer to La Rosa Holdings Corp. and
its subsidiaries.
Overview
We are the holding company for six agent-centric,
technology-integrated, cloud-based, multi-service real estate segments. Our primary business, La Rosa Realty, LLC, has been listed in
the “Top 75 Residential Real Estate Firms in the United States” from 2016 through 2020 by the National Association of Realtors,
the leading real estate industry trade association in the United States.
In addition to providing person-to-person residential
and commercial real estate brokerage services to the public, we cross sell ancillary technology-based products and services primarily
to our sales agents and the sales agents associated with our franchisees. Our business is organized based on the services we provide internally
to our agents and to the public, which are residential and commercial real estate brokerage, franchising, real estate brokerage education
and coaching, title and property management. Our real estate brokerage business operates primarily under the trade name La Rosa Realty,
which we own, and, to a lesser extent, under the trade name Better Homes Realty which we license. We have 24 La Rosa Realty corporate
real estate brokerage offices and branches located in Florida, California, Texas, Georgia, and Puerto Rico. We have 8 La Rosa Realty franchised
real estate brokerage offices and branches and 3 affiliated real estate brokerage offices that pay us fees in three states in the United
States and Puerto Rico. Our real estate brokerage offices, both corporate and franchised, are staffed with 2,647 licensed real estate
brokers and sales associates as of September 30, 2024. Additionally, we have a full-service escrow settlement and title company in Florida.
We have built our business by providing the home
buying public with well trained, knowledgeable realtors who have access to our proprietary and third-party in-house technology tools and
quality education and training, and valuable marketing that attracts some of the best local realtors who provide value-added services
to our home buyers and sellers that are attracted to our brands. We give our real estate brokers and sales agents who are seeking financial
independence a turnkey solution and support them in growing their brokerages while they fund their own businesses. This enables us to
maintain a low fixed-cost business with several recurring revenue streams, yielding relatively high margins and cash flow.
Our agent-centric commission model enables our
sales agents to obtain higher net commissions than they would otherwise receive from many of our competitors in our local markets. We
believe that agents who join our Company from the major real estate brokerage firms have increased their income by an average of approximately
forty percent (40%). They can then use this additional income to reinvest in their businesses or as take-home profit. This is a strong
incentive for them to compete against the discount, flat fee and internet brokerages that have sprung up in the past several years. Instead
of us taking a greater share of their income, our agents pay what we believe to be reduced rates for training and mentorship and our proprietary
technology. Our franchise model has a similar pricing methodology, permitting the franchise owner the freedom to operate their business
with minimal control and lower expense than other franchise offerings.
Moreover, we believe that our proprietary technology,
training, and the support that we provide to our agents at a minimal cost to them is one of the best offered in the industry.
Disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted
in a downturn in our local residential real estate market in 2020. However, our local real estate market rebounded significantly in 2021
and continues to hold up notwithstanding significant increases in mortgage rates as the pandemic has caused what appears to be a large
migration into our market areas from other states. Because nearly all of our sales agents, who are independent contractors, were working
remotely before the pandemic struck, and because Florida did not mandate stay-at-home orders like many other states, the manner in which
our business is conducted during the pandemic has not changed significantly and has not affected the productivity of our sales agents
in 2021, in 2022, or in 2023.
On October 12, 2023, we consummated our
initial public offering (the “IPO”). Following our IPO, as of the date of this prospectus, we have acquired majority ownership
of the following franchisees of the Company: Horeb Kissimmee Realty, LLC, La Rosa Realty Premier, LLC, La Rosa Realty Orlando, LLC, La
Rosa Realty Georgia, LLC, La Rosa Realty California, La Rosa Realty Lakeland LLC and La Rosa Realty Success LLC, and 100% ownership of
the following franchisees of the Company: La Rosa CW Properties, LLC, La Rosa Realty North Florida LLC, La Rosa Realty Winter Garden
LLC, Nona Legacy Powered By La Rosa Realty, Inc. (formerly, La Rosa Realty Lake Nona Inc.), and BF Prime LLC. We have also acquired 100%
ownership of Nona Title Agency LLC, a full service escrow settlement and title company.
We intend to continue growing our business organically
and by acquisition.
It is management’s intention to acquire
additional franchisees and other businesses in 2024 and 2025. We continuously look to search for potential acquisition targets. Management
is in discussions with several franchisees; however, any future agreements may have terms that are materially different than the terms
of completed acquisitions. We cannot guarantee that the Company will actually enter into any binding acquisition agreements with any of
those companies. If we do, we cannot assure you that the terms of such acquisitions will be substantially the same or better for the Company
than those of completed acquisitions.
Our Technology
We provide our agents and employees with cloud-based
real estate brokerage services by utilizing our consumer-facing websites, including our corporate website https://www.larosarealty.com
and our proprietary technology that provides brokerage operations management tools. When an agent is on-boarded, they are required to
take our monthly Foundations Series which covers the use of our proprietary applications. Through our websites, we provide buyers, sellers,
landlords, and tenants with access to all of the available properties for sale or lease on the multiple listing service (“MLS”),
in each of the markets in which we operate. We provide each of our Company franchisees and their agents with their own personal website
that they can modify to match their personal branding. Our website also gives consumers access to our network of professional real estate
agents and vendors. Additionally, the websites we provide use Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) integrated Client Relationship
Management (“CRM”) software to enhance the consumers’ internet experience and assist our agents with lead generation
and lead capture through the AI features. For example, our CRM software, which is integrated into our websites, uses AI to generate marketing
leads for our agents by sending marketing materials to potential buyers and sellers automatically without any agent involvement. Our technology
platform also provides unique automated blogging and comprehensive social media marketing campaigns for our agents to create top of mind
public awareness of our brand.
All La Rosa Holdings offices have access to My Agent Account and are
required to pay a mandatory monthly or annual subscription fee per agent for it. My Agent Account is a proprietary platform of the Company,
that was designed to empower agents with a comprehensive suite of tools and resources. Serving as a centralized hub, it enables agents
to stay connected, informed, and efficient in their daily operations.
In February 2023, we launched our proprietary
technology system - JAEME, part of “My Agent Account.” JAIME is a real estate AI assistant created to support and inspire
our agents with personalized content to drive marketing, efficiency, and sales. This advanced technology can help agents to provide services
to their clients in a more efficient way - even from their mobile devices. Through JAEME, La Rosa’s agents can easily create:
|
● |
Compelling property descriptions; |
|
● |
Effective email campaigns; |
|
● |
Detailed business plans; |
|
● |
Innovative video scripts; and |
|
● |
High-conversion newsletter campaigns. |
Our proprietary technology and third-party services
and platforms provide our agents and franchisees with commission management and accounting systems, an internal agent “intranet”
application, customer relationship management applications, a transaction management solution, and automated marketing and social media
applications and privacy and identity protections. The combination of our brands, proprietary technology, services, data, lead generation,
and marketing tools gives our agents the power to offer best-in-class service to their clients.
Internally, we use our technology to provide our
Company agents, employees and franchisees with the means to find and develop new business, manage their relationships both externally
with their clients and internally with the Company or their franchisor, develop better skills and knowledge in their areas of endeavor
and, we believe, enhance their earning potential. While no one can predict the ups and downs of the real estate market, we believe that
the “weapons” we provide to our Company agents, employees and franchisees help them fight the adverse economic conditions,
a volatile market and the competition.
While our offices and our franchisor’s offices
act as their “home base,” most agents use our offices primarily for real estate closings and training. We monetize our technology
by charging our agents and our franchisor’s agents what we believe to be a reasonable monthly fee for the use of our suite of tools.
In October 2024, the Company launched My Agent
Account version 3.0, a significant upgrade to its proprietary platform, which now includes a new module specifically designed for property
management disbursements. This update is expected to improve operational efficiency for agents across the Company.
Our Recent Strategic Partnerships
In November 2023, the Company entered into a strategic
referral partnership agreement with Janover Inc. (Nasdaq: JNVR) (“Janover”), an AI-enabled B2B fintech marketplace connecting
commercial property borrowers and lenders with a human touch. Janover operates an online commercial loan marketplace that connects prospective
borrowers and lenders for originating loans and will introduce the Company to clients that need commercial real estate brokers. The partnership
is expected to provide our brokers with new tools to facilitate commercial loans, thereby generating a new revenue stream for our brokers
and the Company.
At the end of 2023, the Company entered into
a strategic partnership with Final Offer, a consumer-facing offer management and negotiation platform driven by agents. Final Offer
is a technology platform that is designed to simplify real estate transactions, enabling buyers to make successful offers and
sellers to maximize the outcome of their sales. Final Offer’s online process allows sellers to establish a minimum sales price
and other deal terms online and pre-approved buyers to make binding offers. If a seller sets a “Final Offer” price and
terms, an interested buyer can accept it instantly, putting the property under contract. We believe that the Final Offer’s
innovative platform is designed to empower both real estate agents and their clients with real-time transparency, streamlining the
offer management and negotiation process, creating a fair playing field for all while also providing accountability and trust.
In March 2024, the Company officially launched
Final Offer. Final Offer is available to real estate brokers on the Company’s platform in key markets across Florida, California
and Georgia, with plans to expand the offering across the organization.
In June 2024, the Company recruited a high-performing
group of team leaders in Florida, who closed over 425 transactions and achieved sales exceeding $100 million in the past 12 months.
Our Markets
Our primary market is in the United States. As
of November 8, 2024, we have 24 La Rosa Realty corporate real estate brokerage offices and branches in Florida, California, Texas, Georgia,
and Puerto Rico. We have 8 La Rosa Realty franchised real estate brokerage offices and branches and three affiliated real estate brokerage
offices that pay us fees in two states in the United States and Puerto Rico. Additionally, we have a full-service escrow settlement and
title company in Florida.
Our Revenue Streams
Our financial results are driven by the total
number of sales agents in our Company, the number of sales agents closing commercial real estate transactions, the number of sales agents
utilizing our coaching services, the number of agents utilizing our title services, and the number of agents who work with our franchisees.
We grew our total agent count from our founding in 2004 to 2,647 agents as of September 30, 2024.
The majority of our revenue is derived from a
stable set of fees paid by our brokers, franchisees, and consumers. We have multiple revenue streams, with the majority of our revenue
derived from commissions paid by consumers who transact business with our and our franchisee’s agents, royalties paid by our franchisees,
dues and technology fees paid by our sales agents, our franchisees and our franchisees’ agents. Our major revenue streams come from
such sources as: (i) residential real estate brokerage revenue, (ii) revenue from our property management services, (iii) franchise royalty
fees, (iv) fees from the sale or renewal of franchises and other franchise revenue, (v) coaching, training and assistance fees, (vi) brokerage
revenue generated transactionally on commercial real estate, and (vii) fees from our events and forums.
Our Competition and Strengths
The real estate brokerage business is highly competitive.
We primarily compete against other independent real estate brokerage agencies in our local markets as well as the international and national
real estate brokerage franchisors seeking to grow their franchise system, many of which have a longer operational history and greater
resources than us. We compete against other brokerages to attract transactional clients based on our personalized service with experienced
brokers who know the local market, the number and quality of listings, our brand and reputation and our marketing efforts. We also compete
to attract real estate professionals based on our brand and reputation, the quality of our training and coaching, our marketing efforts,
our generous 100% commission “split” for experienced brokers and our technology tools that make the brokers more efficient
and productive. We believe that competition in the real estate brokerage franchise business is based principally upon the reputational
strength of the brand, the quality of the services offered to franchisees, and the amount of franchise-related fees to be paid by franchisees.
We also face competition from internet-based real
estate brokers. These companies do not provide the same personalized brokerage services that we do and emphasize low price and a do-it-yourself
philosophy.
In the property management arena, we compete against
independent local property management companies and the major national and international commercial real estate property managers. While
most of our property management business comes from referrals in our local market, we compete on price and our ability to be on the ground
and available to handle day-to-day matters for our clients.
Our real estate coaching business competes against
other in-house training services operated by independent real estate brokerage agencies and the international and national franchisors
named above, as well as online providers. We compete on the basis of personalized instruction, our mentorship program provides a neophyte
agent with an experienced coach to guide her and answer questions on an ongoing basis after the classroom instruction has ended.
Many of our existing and potential competitors
have substantial competitive advantages, including a larger national and international footprint and more recognizable brand, greater
financial resources, longer operating histories, a greater breadth of marketing coverage, more extensive relationships in the residential
and commercial real estate industry with brokers, agents, service providers and advertisers, stronger relationships with third party data
providers such as multiple listing services and listing aggregators, maintain their own in-house software development, have access to
larger user bases and greater intellectual property portfolios.
Our Corporate History
La Rosa Holdings Corp. was incorporated in the
State of Nevada on June 14, 2021 by its founder, Mr. Joseph La Rosa, to become the holding company for five Florida limited liability
companies in which Mr. La Rosa held or controlled a one hundred percent ownership interest: (i) La Rosa Coaching, LLC (“Coaching”);
(ii) La Rosa CRE, LLC (“CRE”); (iii) La Rosa Franchising, LLC (“Franchising”); (iv) La Rosa Property Management,
LLC (“Property Management”); and (v) La Rosa Realty, LLC (“Realty”). Coaching, CRE, Franchising, Property Management
and Realty became direct, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company as a result of the closing of the Reorganization Agreement and Plan
of Share Exchange, dated July 22, 2021, which was effective on August 4, 2021. Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, each
LLC exchanged 100% of their limited liability company membership interests for one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001
par value per share, which share was automatically redeemed for nominal consideration upon the closing of the transaction, resulting each
LLC becoming the direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On October 12, 2023, we consummated our initial
public offering (the “IPO”). Following our IPO, we have acquired majority ownership of several franchisees of the Company
and other businesses. As of the date of this prospectus, the Company owns a majority ownership of the following entities:

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
and a Smaller Reporting Company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company”
as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). As a result, we are permitted to, and intend
to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include,
but are not limited to:
|
● |
being permitted to 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;” |
|
● |
not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act); |
|
● |
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; 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. |
In addition, an emerging growth company can take
advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an emerging growth
company to delay the adoption of some accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected
to avail ourselves of this extended transition period. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (i) our
reporting $1.235 billion or more in annual gross revenues; (ii) the end of fiscal year 2026; (iii) our issuance, in a three year period,
of more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; and (iv) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated
filer, which generally means that we have been public for at least 12 months, have filed at least one annual report, and the market value
of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last day of our then-most recently completed second
fiscal quarter.
We have elected to take advantage of certain of
the reduced disclosure obligations and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result,
the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than the information you might receive from other public reporting
companies in which you hold equity interests.
We also qualify as a “smaller
reporting company,” as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), and to the extent we continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” after we cease
to qualify as an “emerging growth company,” certain of the exemptions available to us as an “emerging growth
company” may continue to be available to us as a smaller reporting company, including: (1) not being required to comply with
the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (2) scaled executive compensation disclosures; and
(3) the ability to provide only two years of audited financial statements, instead of three years.
Implication of Being a Controlled Company
We are and will continue, following this offering,
to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules, due to the fact that our Chief Executive
Officer, Chairman and Founder, Mr. Joseph La Rosa, as of November 8, 2024, controls 65.2% of the total voting power of our common stock
based on his ownership of common stock and the 20,000,000 votes provided by his Series X Super Voting Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value
per share, (the “Series X Preferred Stock”) that votes with the common stock, with respect to director elections and other
matters.
Upon the completion of this offering and assuming
exercise of the Warrants by Abri, Mr. La Rosa will control 64.6% of total voting power of our Company.
For so long as we are a controlled company under
that definition, we are permitted to elect to rely, and may rely, on certain exemptions from corporate governance rules, including:
|
● |
an exemption from the rule that a majority of our Board of Directors must be independent directors; |
|
● |
an exemption from the rule that the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer must be determined or recommended solely by independent directors; and |
|
● |
an exemption from the rule that our director nominees must be selected or recommended solely by independent directors. |
As a result, you will not have the same protection
afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements.
Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled
company” exemption under the Nasdaq listing rules, we could elect to rely on this exemption after we complete this offering. If
we elected to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, a majority of the members of our Board of Directors might not be
independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent
directors after we complete this offering.
SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high
degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks summarized below. These risks are discussed more fully in the “Risk Factors”
section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2024, and in this prospectus.
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
|
● |
Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” |
|
● |
We have a limited operating history with financial results that may not be indicative of future performance, and our revenue growth rate is likely to slow down due to the recent antitrust litigation and as our business matures. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets may adversely impact future results of operations. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We may not realize the expected benefits of our recent acquisitions because of integration difficulties and other challenges. |
|
|
|
|
● |
If we fail to raise additional capital, our ability to implement our business model and strategy could be compromised. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The residential real estate market is cyclical, and we can be negatively impacted by downturns in this market and by general economic conditions. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The lack of financing for homebuyers in the U.S. residential real estate market at favorable rates and on favorable terms has had a material adverse effect on our financial performance and results of operations. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The housing market is currently in flux with higher mortgage interest rates and generally increasing home prices which makes it difficult to predict future market trends. Any decrease in home sales in the future will have an adverse effect on our financial performance and results of operations. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We may fail to execute our strategies to grow our business successfully, including increasing our agent count and expanding the number of our franchisees and agents, or we may fail to manage our growth effectively, which could have a material adverse effect on our brand, our financial performance, and our results of operations. |
|
● |
We might be unable to attract and retain additional qualified agents and other personnel. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Our financial results are affected directly by the operating results of franchisees and agents, over whom we do not have direct control. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We depend substantially on our Founder, Joseph La Rosa, and the loss of any our senior management or other key employees or the inability to hire additional qualified personnel could adversely affect our operations, our brand and our financial performance. |
|
● |
Concentration of ownership of our voting stock by Mr. La Rosa will prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions. |
|
● |
Mr. La Rosa will control all matters that come before the stockholders for a vote and thus we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing requirements and, as a result, the Company will qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. If we take advantage of such exemptions, you will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such corporate governance requirements. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We are subject to certain risks related to litigation filed by or against us, and adverse results may harm our business and financial condition. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Adverse outcomes in litigation and regulatory actions against the National Association of Realtors, other real estate brokerage companies and agents in our industry could adversely impact our financial results. |
|
● |
If we attempt to, or acquire other complementary businesses, we will face certain risks inherent with such activities. |
Risks Associated with Our Capital Stock
|
● |
We may not be able to maintain the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq, which could adversely affect our liquidity and the trading volume and market price of our common stock and decrease or eliminate your investment. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The market price for our common stock may be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded public float, and minimal profits, which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. |
|
|
|
|
● |
If our securities become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Our status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act may make it more difficult to raise capital as and when we need it. |
|
|
|
|
● |
If we continue to fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired. |
General Risks
|
● |
If we fail to protect the privacy of employees, independent contractors, or consumers or personal information that they share with us, our reputation and business could be significantly harmed. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Cybersecurity incidents could disrupt our business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information, adversely impact our reputation and harm our business. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Anti-takeover provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions in Nevada law, might discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our Company or changes in our management and, therefore, depress the trading price of our Securities. |
THE OFFERING
Securities Offered by the Selling Stockholder |
|
up to 1,460,826 shares of common stock. |
|
|
|
Common Stock Outstanding After Offering(1) |
|
20,223,639 shares, assuming (i) the Warrants held by Abri are exercised for shares of common stock, and (ii) no other shares of common stock are issued by us. If less than all of the Warrants are exercised for shares of common stock, we would have less common stock outstanding after the Offering. |
|
|
|
Use of Proceeds |
|
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the common stock registered hereunder. We will receive proceeds upon exercise of the Warrants, assuming they are not exercised on a “cashless” basis. To the extent the Warrants are exercised for cash, we intend to use such proceeds for general corporate purposes and working capital requirements and other purposes that the Board of Directors deems to be in the best interests of the Company. |
|
|
|
Risk Factors |
|
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk and could result in a loss of your entire investment. Further, the issuance to, or sale by, the Selling Stockholders of a significant amount of shares being registered in the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, at any given time could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile, and we do not have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales by the Selling Stockholders of such shares. Prior to making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all of the information in this Prospectus and, in particular, you should evaluate the risk factors set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” beginning on page 11. |

RISK FACTORS
The risks and uncertainties described therein
and below could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as cause the value of our
securities to decline. You may lose all or part of your investment as a result. You should also refer to the other information contained
in this prospectus, or incorporated by reference, including our financial statements and the notes to those statements, and the information
set forth under the caption “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results could differ materially
from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks mentioned below. Forward-looking
statements included in this prospectus are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and all forward-looking statements
in documents incorporated by reference are based on information available to us as of the date of such documents. We disclaim any intent
to update any forward-looking statements. The risks described below and contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q and in our other periodic reports are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that
we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business operations.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our independent registered public accounting
firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going
concern.” If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value.
Although our audited financial statements for
the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were prepared under the assumption that we would continue our operations as a going concern,
the report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our financial statements for the years ended December 31,
2023 and 2022, contains a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as
a going concern, based on that we have incurred recurring net losses, and our operations have not provided net positive cash flows.
We plan on continuing to expand via acquisition,
which we believe will us achieve future profitability, and we intend to raise capital from outside investors, as we have done in the past,
to fund operating losses and to provide capital for further business acquisitions. However, there are no assurances that such financing
will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include
any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through
sales of our products, financings, or from other sources or transactions, we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue
operations. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in us.
We have a limited operating history with
financial results that may not be indicative of future performance, and our revenue growth rate is likely to slow down as our business
matures and may slow down due to the recent antitrust litigation.
We began operations in 2021. As a result of our
limited operating history, we have limited financial data that can be used to evaluate our current business, and such data may not be
indicative of future performance. We have encountered, and expect to continue to encounter, risks and difficulties frequently experienced
by growing companies, including challenges in financial forecasting accuracy, hiring of experienced personnel, hiring of technology employees,
determining appropriate investments, developing new products and features, assessing legal and regulatory risks, among others. Any evaluation
of our business and prospects should be considered in light of our limited operating history, and the risks and uncertainties inherent
in investing in early-stage companies. In addition, recent settlements of litigation based on alleged violations of federal and state
antitrust laws may have an adverse impact on our potential growth.
We may not realize the expected benefits
of our recent acquisitions because of integration difficulties and other challenges.
The success of our recent acquisitions will depend,
in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated revenue, cost-savings, tax, collaboration and other synergies from integrating our
two recent acquisitions with our existing business. The integration process may be complex, costly, and time-consuming. We may not accomplish
the integration smoothly, successfully, or within the anticipated costs or time frame. The diversion of the attention of management from
our current operations to the integration effort and any difficulties encountered in combining operations could prevent us from realizing
the full benefits anticipated to result from the share exchanges and could adversely affect our business. In addition, the integration
efforts could divert the focus and resources of the management of the Company from other strategic opportunities and operational matters
during the integration process.
Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Common
Stock
Our failure to maintain our compliance with
Nasdaq’s continued listing standards or other requirements could result in our common stock being from Nasdaq, which could adversely
affect our liquidity and the trading volume and market price of our common stock and decrease or eliminate your investment.
Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq
Capital Market on Nasdaq under the symbol “LRHC.” Nasdaq requires listed issuers to comply with certain standards in order
to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable
to obtain listing on another reputable national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which
could materially adversely affect our stockholders.
If we violate Nasdaq’s listing requirements,
or if we fail to meet any of Nasdaq’s listing standards, our common stock may be delisted. A delisting of our common stock from
Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our common stock and could have an adverse effect on the
market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our common stock. The delisting of our common stock could significantly
impair our ability to raise capital and the value of your shares.
On October 10, 2024, we received a letter from
Nasdaq notifying us that we were no longer in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq
under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). Although Nasdaq has granted us 180 calendar days, or until April
8, 2025, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, there can be no assurance that we will regain such compliance and Nasdaq could
make a determination to delist our common stock.
Any delisting determination by Nasdaq could seriously
decrease or eliminate the value of an investment in our common stock and other securities linked to our common stock. While a listing
on an over-the-counter exchange could maintain some degree of a market in our common stock, we could face substantial material adverse
consequences, including, but not limited to, the following: limited availability for market quotations for our common stock; reduced liquidity
with respect to and decreased trading prices of our common stock; a determination that shares of our common stock are “penny stock”
under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, subjecting brokers trading our common stock to more stringent rules on disclosure
and the class of investors to which the broker may sell the common stock; limited news and analyst coverage for our Company, in part due
to the “penny stock” rules; decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future;
and potential breaches under or terminations of our agreements with current or prospective large stockholders, strategic investors and
banks. The perception among investors that we are at heightened risk of delisting could also negatively affect the market price of our
securities and trading volume of our common stock.
Furthermore, on November 6, 2024, the closing
price of our common stock was $0.85. Pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii), if the closing price of our common stock is $0.10 or
less for 10 consecutive trading days, we will be issued a Staff Delisting Determination by Nasdaq. If we receive a Staff Delisting Determination
Letter resulting from our common stock trading at or below $0.10 for 10 consecutive trading days, we will have 7 calendar days to request
a hearing before a Nasdaq hearings panel to review the Staff Delisting Determination, which will stay the delisting of our common stock
by Nasdaq. A hearing would then take place within 45 days of the hearing request to determine whether, or not our common stock would be
delisted. If, in the future, we receive a Staff Delisting Determination there can be no assurance that we would be successful in preventing
a determination by the Nasdaq hearing panel that our stock will be delisted.
Future issuances of our common stock or
securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to
decline and would result in the dilution of your holdings.
Future issuances of our common stock or securities
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. We
cannot predict the effect, if any, of future issuances of our securities, or the future expirations of lock-up agreements, on the price
of our common stock. In all events, future issuances of our common stock would result in the dilution of your holdings. In addition, the
perception that new issuances of our securities could occur could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Future issuances of debt securities, which
would rank senior to our common stock upon our bankruptcy or liquidation, and future issuances of preferred stock, which could rank senior
to our common stock for the purposes of dividends and liquidating distributions, may adversely affect the level of return you may be able
to achieve from an investment in our securities.
In the future, we may attempt to increase our
capital resources by offering debt securities. Upon bankruptcy or liquidation, holders of our debt securities, and lenders with respect
to other borrowings we may make, would receive distributions of our available assets prior to any distributions being made to holders
of our common stock. Moreover, if we issue preferred stock, the holders of such preferred stock could be entitled to preferences over
holders of common stock in respect of the payment of dividends and the payment of liquidating distributions. Because our decision to issue
debt or preferred stock in any future offering, or borrow money from lenders, will depend in part on market conditions and other factors
beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any such future offerings or borrowings. Holders of
our common stock must bear the risk that any future offerings we conduct or borrowings we make may adversely affect the level of return,
if any, they may be able to achieve from an investment in our securities.
Concentration of ownership of our voting
stock by Mr. La Rosa will prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.
Based on our common stock outstanding as of November
8, 2024, Mr. La Rosa had voting power of approximately 65.2% of our outstanding voting stock. As a result, Mr. La Rosa, our President
and Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board of Directors, and majority stockholder, controls all matters requiring stockholder
approval, including the election and removal of directors and any merger or other significant corporate transactions. The interests of
Mr. La Rosa may not coincide with the interests of other stockholders.
Mr. La Rosa may have interests different than
yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and that may be adverse to your interests. In addition, Mr. La Rosa’s concentration
of ownership could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control or otherwise discouraging a potential acquirer from attempting
to obtain control of us, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or prevent our stockholders from realizing
a premium over the market price for their common stock. In addition, he may want the Company to pursue strategies that deviate from the
interests of other stockholders. Investors should consider that the interests of Mr. La Rosa may differ from their interests in material
respects.
As a “controlled company” under
the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we may choose to exempt our Company from certain corporate governance requirements that could
have an adverse effect on our public stockholders.
We are and, upon the completion of this offering,
will continue to be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(c)(1) and may elect not to comply
with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that a majority of our directors be independent, as defined
in the Nasdaq Capital Market Rules, and the requirement that our compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees consist
entirely of independent directors. Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled company” exemption under the Nasdaq
listing rules, we could elect to rely on this exemption in the future. If we elect to rely on the “controlled company” exemption,
a majority of the members of our Board of Directors might not be independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and
compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors. Accordingly, during any time while we remain a controlled
company relying on the exemption and during any transition period following a time when we are no longer a controlled company, you would
not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all the Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance
requirements. Our status as a controlled company could cause our shares to be less attractive to certain investors or otherwise harm our
trading price.
We are authorized to issue “blank
check” preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely impact the rights of holders of our common stock.
Our articles of incorporation authorize us to
issue up to 50,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, meaning our Board of Directors can designate the rights and
preferences of classes or series of such preferred stock without stockholder approval. Any preferred stock that we issue in the future
may rank ahead of our common stock in terms of dividend priority or liquidation premiums and may have greater voting rights than our common
stock. In addition, such preferred stock may contain provisions allowing those shares to be converted into shares of common stock, which
could dilute the value of common stock to current stockholders and could adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.
In addition, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a
change in control of our company. There can be no assurance that we will not issue preferred stock in the future.
If our shares of common stock become subject
to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate
broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price
of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain
automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is
provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange and if the price
of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock could be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a
broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any
transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that
the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the
receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and
dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in
the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.
We may need, but be unable, to obtain additional
funding on satisfactory terms, which could dilute our stockholders or impose burdensome financial restrictions on our business.
We have relied upon cash from equity and debt
offerings to sustain our operations, and, in the future, we hope to rely on cash from equity and debt financings and revenues generated
from operations to fund the cash requirements of our activities. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to generate any
significant cash from our operating activities in the future. Future financings may not be available on a timely basis, in sufficient
amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to the common stock will likely
include financial and other covenants that will restrict our flexibility. Any failure to comply with these covenants would have a material
adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations because we could lose our existing sources of
funding, and our ability to secure new sources of funding could be impaired.
Additionally, obtaining future equity or debt
financing on favorable terms may be difficult, and we may not be able to secure additional capital when needed or on terms favorable to
us. If we are unable to obtain necessary financings or are forced to obtain financings on unfavorable terms, our business, operating results,
and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Risk Related to Missed Amortization Payment
on Outstanding Promissory Notes
We have previously missed amortization payments
on promissory notes issued to Mast Hill Fund, L.P. in February and April 2024. Although Mast Hill Fund, L.P. waived its right to accelerate
payment of the remaining balance under the promissory note for those instances, and agreed to restructure payments under all outstanding
notes issued to Mast Hill Fund, L.P. pursuant to the Global Amendment to the Notes dated September 25, 2024 (the “Global Amendment”),
there is no assurance that they will waive their right to accelerate payments in the future for the February 2024 note, or the promissory
notes issued to the same investor in April 2024 and in July 2024. Failure to make future amortization payments on time could result in
the investor exercising their rights to accelerate payment under one or more outstanding notes, which would require us to pay the remaining
balance of the notes immediately. This could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.
Our common stock may be affected by limited
trading volume and price fluctuations, which could adversely impact the value of our common stock.
Our common stock has experienced, and is likely
to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market prices of our common stock
without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results
and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the market prices of our common stock to fluctuate
substantially. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to periodically enter the market in the belief that we will have poor results
in the future. We cannot predict the actions of market participants and, therefore, can offer no assurances that the market for our common
stock and warrants will be stable or appreciate over time.
The price of our common stock may be adversely
affected by the future issuance and sale of shares of our common stock or other equity securities.
We cannot predict the size of future issuances
or sales of our common stock or other equity securities, future acquisitions or capital raising activities, or the effect, if any, that
such issuances or sales may have on the market price of our common stock. The issuance and sale of substantial amounts of common stock
or other equity securities or the announcement that such issuances and sales may occur could adversely affect the market price of our
common stock.
We currently do not intend to declare dividends
on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, as a result, your returns on your investment may depend solely on the appreciation
of our common stock.
We currently do not expect to declare any dividends
on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Instead, we anticipate that all our earnings in the foreseeable future will be used to
provide working capital to support our operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Any decision to declare or
pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board, subject to applicable laws and dependent upon several factors, including
our earnings, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. In addition, terms of any future debt or preferred securities may
further restrict our ability to pay dividends on our common stock. Accordingly, your only opportunity to achieve a return on your investment
in our common stock may be if the market price of our common stock appreciates and you sell your shares at a profit. The market price
for our common stock may never exceed, and may fall below, the price that you pay for such common stock.
USE OF PROCEEDS
This Prospectus relates to shares of our common
stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Stockholders. We will receive no proceeds from the sale of shares
of common stock by the Selling Stockholders.
We will receive proceeds upon exercise of the
Warrants, assuming they are not exercised on a “cashless” basis. The holder may exercise the Warrants by a “cashless”
exercise if at the time of exercise hereof, there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares or the prospectus
contained therein is not available for issuance of the Warrant Shares to the holder.
To the extent any Warrants are not exercised on
a “cashless basis,” we intend to use the net proceeds entirely for general corporate purposes, working capital requirements,
and other purposes that the Board of Directors deems to be in the best interests of the Company.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Description of the Placement
As we reported on a Form 8-K filed with the SEC
on November 7, 2024, on November 1, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”)
with Abri Advisors, Ltd., a Bermuda company (“Abri”) pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to Abri, upon the terms
and conditions set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, up to 1,335,826 shares of the Company’s common stock, and/or pre-funded
warrants to purchase shares of common stock, subject to appropriate adjustments for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination,
rights offerings, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the common stock, at a price equal
to $0.3743 per share. The Company also granted Abri piggy-back registration rights in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement,
the shares shall be issued on November 1, 2024 upon satisfaction of customary closing conditions. If Abri would beneficially own in excess
of 4.99% of the common stock as a result of the issuance of the shares, Abri shall instead receive pre-funded common stock purchase warrant
to purchase the number of shares in excess of such beneficial ownership limitation in a particular closing.
The Company also granted Abri piggy-back registration
rights in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
The closing of the transaction took place on November
1, 2024 (the “Closing Date”). The Company issued to Abri 936,264 shares of common stock (the “Abri Shares”) and
a pre-funded common stock purchase warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 399,498 shares of common stock (the “Warrant
Shares”).
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement,
until the date that is one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall not,
directly or indirectly, without Abri’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld: (a) change the nature
of its business; or (b) sell, divest, or change the structure of any material assets other than in the ordinary course of business.
In connection with the transaction, the Company
and Abri entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company
agreed to register the Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form). The
Company had agreed to file the registration statement with the SEC within ten (10) business days from the date of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within sixty
(60) calendar days from the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement.
Warrants
The Warrant is exercisable for up to 399,562 shares
of common stock. The Warrant is a pre-funded warrant. The Warrant has an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, is immediately exercisable
upon issuance and will expire when exercised in full.
Under the terms of the Warrant, we may not affect
the exercise of any such Warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Warrant, if, upon giving effect to
such exercise, the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by Abri (together with its affiliates, other persons
acting or who could be deemed to be acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates, and any other
persons whose beneficial ownership of common stock would or could be aggregated with the holder’s or any of the holder’s affiliates
for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock of
the Company outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), as such percentage
ownership is calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC, provided,
however, that the holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation by giving notice to the Company, with any such
increase not taking effect until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company but not to any percentage in excess of
9.99%.
Stock Dividend and Stock Split Adjustments.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant are subject to adjustment in the event
of any stock split, stock dividend, or reclassification.
Subsequent Rights Offerings Adjustment.
If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Warrant) or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all (or substantially all) the record holders of any class of shares of common stock
(the “Purchase Rights”), then Abril will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate
Purchase Rights which Abri could have acquired if Abri had held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete exercise
of the Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise thereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company
shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all (or substantially all)
holders of shares of common stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash,
stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement
or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), in each such case, Abri shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution
to the same extent that the Selling Stockholder would have participated therein if Abri had held the number of shares of common stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of the Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation,
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of common stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.
Fundamental Transaction Adjustment. If,
at any time while the Warrant is outstanding the Company effects a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrant), then, upon any
subsequent exercise of the Warrant, Abri shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such
exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of Abri, the number of shares of common stock
of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the
“Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of common
stock for which the Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.
The Securities Purchase Agreement contained customary
representations and warranties and agreements and obligations of the parties. The proceeds of this financing will be used for business
development and general working capital purposes.
The foregoing description of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, the Warrant, and the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements,
copies of which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Advisory Agreement
On November 1, 2024, we entered into an independent contractor agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Brown Stone Capital
Ltd. (“Brown Stone”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, Brown Stone agreed to serve as a consultant of the Company in connection
with sourcing business expansion and marketing opportunities, and we agreed to issue and sell to Brown Stone 125,000 shares of common
stock of the Company (“Brown Stone Shares”) as a compensation for their services. We also agreed to register Brown Stone Shares
with the SEC pursuant to the registration statement within 15 calendar days.
On November 1, 2024, the Company issued Brown
Stone Shares pursuant to the Advisory Agreement.
Stockholder Approval
The Company is currently listed on the Nasdaq
Capital Market and is subject to the listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. The issuance of Abri Shares and Brown Stone Shares
does not implicate the Nasdaq listing standards requiring prior stockholder approval in order to maintain our listing on Nasdaq.
The Company was not required to obtain any approval
from the stockholders of the Company in order to enter into the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Advisory Agreement, and effectuate
the transactions contemplated therein, including but not limited to any shareholder approval as contemplated by Nasdaq Rule 5635(e) since
the maximum amount of common stock issuable under the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Advisory Agreement does not exceed 19.99%
of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of respective date of issuance.
SELLING STOCKHOLDER
This prospectus relates to the possible resale
from time to time by the Selling Stockholders named in the table below of any or all of the common stock that has been or may be issued
by us to the Selling Stockholders as part of the Placement. We are registering the common stock pursuant to the provisions of the Registration
Rights Agreement and Advisory Agreement entered into with the Selling Stockholders in order to permit such Selling Stockholders to offer
its shares for resale from time to time.
The table below presents information regarding
the Selling Stockholders and the common stock they may offer from time to time under this prospectus. This table is prepared based on
holdings by the Selling Stockholders as of November 8, 2024. As used in this prospectus, the term “Selling Stockholders” includes
the Selling Stockholders names in the table below, and any donees, pledgees, transferees, or other successors-in-interest selling shares
received after the date of this prospectus from such Selling Stockholders as a gift, pledge, or other non-sale related transfer. The number
of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares to be Offered for Resale Pursuant to this Prospectus” represents all of
the common stock that the Selling Stockholders may offer under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may sell some, all or none of
its shares offered by this prospectus. We do not know how long the Selling Stockholders will hold their shares before selling them, and
we currently have no agreements, arrangements, or understandings with the Selling Stockholders regarding the sale of any of the shares.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)
promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act and includes common stock with respect to which the Selling Stockholders have voting and
investment power. The Warrant held by Abri contain a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, prohibiting exercise of the Warrant for common
stock if the conversion or exercise would result in the holder being deemed to beneficially own more than 4.99% of our common stock. The
first column reflects that beneficial ownership limitation. The second column does not, and it assumes that the maximum number of shares
to be offered for resale pursuant to this prospectus has been issued to each Selling Stockholder. The third and fourth columns assume
the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders, including any of their
pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the Nasdaq
or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may
be at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, prices related to prevailing market prices, fixed prices or negotiated prices. The
Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
|
● |
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| ● | block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| ● | purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| ● | exchange
distributions in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| ● | privately
negotiated transactions; |
| ● | settlements
of short sales; |
| ● | transactions
through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per
security; |
| ● | writings
or settlements of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| ● | combinations
of any such methods of sale; or |
| ● | any
other methods permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders
may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders
(or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except
as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission
in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
In connection with the sale of the securities
or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions,
which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders
may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative
securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which
securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this Prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect
such transaction).
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers
or agents that are involved in selling the securities will be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11)
of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any
profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities
Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that they do not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly
or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and
expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders
against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Because each Selling Stockholders may be deemed
to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant
to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders have advised
us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling
Stockholders.
We have agreed to keep this prospectus effective
until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard
to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the
current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, or (ii) the sale of all of the
securities pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities
will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in
certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable
state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Pursuant to applicable rules and regulations
under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making
activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement
of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock
by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have
informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance
with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
Our authorized capital stock currently consists
of 300,000,000 shares, consisting of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of “blank
check” preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.
The following description summarizes important
terms of the classes of our capital stock following the filing of our articles of incorporation. This summary does not purport to be complete
and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our articles of incorporation and our bylaws which have been filed as exhibits to
the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
As of November 8, 2024, there were 19,824,077
shares of common stock and 2,000 shares of Series X Super Voting Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Upon closing of this offering,
we will have 20,223,569 shares of common stock outstanding, assuming (i) the Warrant held by Abri is exercised for shares of common stock,
and (ii) no other shares of common stock are issued by us. If less than all of the Warrants are exercised for shares of common stock,
we would have less common stock outstanding after the Offering.
Common Stock
Voting Rights. The holders of common stock
are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Under our articles of incorporation
and bylaws, any corporate action to be taken by vote of stockholders other than for election of directors shall be authorized by the affirmative
vote of the majority of votes cast. Directors are elected by a plurality of votes. Stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights.
Dividend Rights. Subject to preferences
that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends,
if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds.
Liquidation Rights. In the event of our
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available
for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference
granted to the holders of any then-outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Other Rights. Holders of common stock have
no pre-emptive, conversion or subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock.
The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of
the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock.
Preferred Stock
Our articles of incorporation authorize our Board
to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to determine the designations and the powers, preferences and
rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including the dividend rights, conversion or exchange rights, voting
rights (including the number of votes per share), redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, sinking fund provisions and the
number of shares constituting the series. Our Board of Directors could, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting
and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock and which could have the
effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, a majority
of our outstanding voting stock.
Series X Super Voting Preferred Stock
On July 29, 2021, we filed an Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 2,000 shares of the authorized preferred stock as
“Series X Super Voting Preferred Stock” and issued 100% of the Super X Super Voting Preferred Stock to Mr. Joseph La Rosa,
our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman.
The holder of our Series X Super Voting Preferred
Stock is entitled to the following rights:
Voting Rights. Each share of our Series
X Super Voting Preferred Stock entitles its holder to 10,000 votes per share and votes with our common stock as a single class on all
matters to be voted or consented upon by the stockholders.
Conversion. The Series X Super Voting Preferred
Stock is not convertible into common stock or any other securities of the Company.
Dividend Rights. The holders of our Series
X Super Voting Preferred Stock are not entitled to any dividend rights or to participate in dividends paid on the Company’s common
stock.
Liquidation Rights. The holders of the
Series X Super Voting Preferred Stock are not entitled to any liquidation preference.
Pre-Funded Warrants
On November 1, 2024, the Company issued a pre-funded
common stock purchase warrant exercisable for up to 399,562 shares of common stock (the “Warrant”).
The Warrant has an exercise price of $0.0001 per
share, is immediately exercisable upon issuance and will expire when exercised in full.
Under the terms of the Warrant, we may not affect
the exercise of any such Warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Warrant, if, upon giving effect to
such exercise, the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by Abri (together with its affiliates, other persons
acting or who could be deemed to be acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates, and any other
persons whose beneficial ownership of common stock would or could be aggregated with the holder’s or any of the holder’s affiliates
for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock of
the Company outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), as such percentage
ownership is calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC, provided,
however, that the holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation by giving notice to the Company, with any such
increase not taking effect until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company but not to any percentage in excess of
9.99%.
Stock Dividend and Stock Split Adjustments.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant are subject to adjustment in the event
of any stock split, stock dividend, or reclassification.
Subsequent Rights Offerings Adjustment.
If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Warrant) or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all (or substantially all) the record holders of any class of shares of common stock
(the “Purchase Rights”), then Abril will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate
Purchase Rights which Abri could have acquired if Abri had held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete exercise
of the Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise thereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company
shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all (or substantially all)
holders of shares of common stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash,
stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement
or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), in each such case, Abri shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution
to the same extent that the Selling Stockholder would have participated therein if Abri had held the number of shares of common stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of the Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation,
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of common stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.
Fundamental Transaction Adjustment. If,
at any time while the Warrant is outstanding the Company effects a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrant), then, upon any
subsequent exercise of the Warrant, Abri shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such
exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of Abri, the number of shares of common stock
of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the
“Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of common
stock for which the Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.
Warrants and Options
As of November 8, 2024, there are eleven (11)
outstanding warrants covering 1,583,711 shares of common stock and sixteen (17) outstanding options covering 3,792,910 shares of common
stock.
Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of Nevada Law
and our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws
Anti-takeover Effects of Nevada Law
Business Combinations
The “business combination” provisions
of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, generally prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least
200 stockholders of record, a “resident domestic corporation,” from engaging in various “combination” transactions
with an “interested stockholder” unless certain conditions are met or the corporation has elected in its articles of incorporation
to not be subject to these provisions. We have not elected to opt out of these provisions and if we meet the definition of resident domestic
corporation, now or in the future, our company will be subject to these provisions.
A “combination” is generally defined
to include (a) a merger or consolidation of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation with
the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; (b) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer,
or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, by the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident
domestic corporation to or with the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder having: (i) an aggregate
market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the resident domestic corporation, (ii) an aggregate market
value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the resident domestic corporation, or (iii) 10% or
more of the earning power or net income of the resident domestic corporation; (c) the issuance or transfer in one transaction or series
of transactions of shares of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation having an aggregate
market value equal to 5% or more of the resident domestic corporation to the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested
stockholder; and (d) certain other transactions with an interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.
An “interested stockholder” is generally
defined as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within two years, did own) 10% or more of a corporation’s
voting stock. An “affiliate” of the interested stockholder is any person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries
is controlled by or is under common control with the interested stockholder. An “associate” of an interested stockholder is
any (a) corporation or organization of which the interested stockholder is an officer or partner or is directly or indirectly the beneficial
owner of 10% or more of any class of voting shares of such corporation or organization; (b) trust or other estate in which the interested
stockholder has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which the interested stockholder serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary
capacity; or (c) relative or spouse of the interested stockholder, or any relative of the spouse of the interested stockholder, who has
the same home as the interested stockholder.
If applicable, the prohibition is for a period
of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the combination meets all
of the requirements of the resident domestic corporation’s articles of incorporation and the combination or transaction by which
the person first became an interested stockholder is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained
such status; or the combination is approved by the board of directors and thereafter is approved at a meeting of the stockholders by the
affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 60% of the outstanding voting power held by disinterested stockholders. The prohibition
extends beyond the expiration of the two-year period, unless the combination meets all of the requirements of the resident domestic corporation’s
articles of incorporation and (a) the combination or transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder was approved
by the board of directors before the person became an interested stockholder; (b) the combination is approved by the affirmative vote
of a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders at a meeting called for that purpose no earlier than two years after
the date the person first became an interested stockholder; or (c) if the consideration to be paid to all stockholders other than the
interested stockholder is, generally, at least equal to the highest of: (i) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder
within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which it became
an interested stockholder, whichever is higher, plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, (ii) the market value per share of common
shares on the date of announcement of the combination and the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher,
plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, or (iii) for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred
stock, plus accrued dividends, if not included in the liquidation value. With respect to (i) and (ii) above, the interest is compounded
at the rate for one-year United States Treasury obligations from time to time in effect.
The business combination provisions do not apply
to a person after the expiration of four years after the person first became an interested stockholder.
Applicability of the Nevada business combination
statute would discourage parties interested in taking control of our company if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board. These provisions
could prohibit or delay a merger or other takeover or change in control attempt and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire our
company even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing
market price.
Control Share Acquisitions
The “control share” provisions of
Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS, apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at 200
or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have had addresses in Nevada appearing on the stock ledger of the corporation at
all times during the 90 days immediately preceding the determination date, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada,
unless the corporation has elected to not be subject to these provisions.
The control share statute prohibits an acquirer of shares of an issuing
corporation, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold
percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies
three thresholds: (a) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (b) one-third but less than a majority, and (c) a majority or more, of
the outstanding voting power. Generally, once a person acquires shares in excess of any of the thresholds, those shares and any additional
shares acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until
disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and
the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing
voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures
established for dissenters’ rights.
A corporation may elect to not be governed by,
or “opt out” of, the control shares provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided
that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10 day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that
is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of these provisions and will be subject to the control
share provisions of the NRS if we meet the definition of an issuing corporation upon an acquiring person acquiring a controlling interest
unless we later opt out of these provisions and the opt out is in effect on the 10 day following such occurrence.
The effect of the Nevada control share statute
is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control
shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable,
could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company.
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
Our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws contain
provisions that could make it more difficult to acquire control of our Company by means of a tender offer, open market purchases, a proxy
contest or otherwise. A description of these provisions is set forth below.
Preferred Stock. We believe that
the availability of the “blank check” preferred stock under our Articles of Incorporation provides us with flexibility in
addressing corporate issues that may arise. The Board of Directors has the power, subject to applicable law, to issue a series of preferred
stock that could, depending on the terms of the series, impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt that
some, or a majority, of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium
for their stock over the then prevailing market price of the stock. Our Board of Directors may issue preferred stock with voting rights
or conversion rights that, if exercised, could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock.
The authorized shares of preferred stock, as well
as shares of common stock, will be available for issuance without further action by our stockholders unless action is required by applicable
law or the rules of any stock exchange on which our securities may be listed. Having these authorized shares available for issuance allows
us to issue shares without the expense and delay of a special stockholders’ meeting. We may use additional shares for a variety
of purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, to fund acquisitions and as employee compensation. The existence
of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain
control of our Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise. The above provisions may deter a hostile takeover
or delay a change in control or management of our Company.
Election and Removal of Directors.
Directors will be elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the stockholders’
meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Our Articles of Incorporation does not provide for a classified Board of Directors
or cumulative voting in the election of directors. Under our bylaws, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the Board of
Directors or any director may be removed from office at any time with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.
Size of Board and Vacancies. The
authorized number of directors of the corporation shall be fixed by the Board of Directors from time to time. Directors need not be stockholders
unless so required by the Articles of Incorporation. If for any cause, the directors shall not have been elected at an annual meeting,
they may be elected as soon thereafter as convenient.
Vacancies occurring on our Board of Directors
for any reason and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled only by
a vote of a majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director,
at any meeting of the Board of Directors. A directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the number of directors may be filled
by the Board of Directors for a term of office only until the next election of one or more directors by the stockholders.
Amendment. The Board of Directors
is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal our bylaws. The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws
of the corporation; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of
the corporation required by law or by the Articles of Incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the corporation entitled to
vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
Special Meetings of Stockholders.
Special meetings of the stockholders may be called, for any purpose or purposes, by (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, (ii) the
Chief Executive Officer, (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by directors representing a quorum of the Board
of Directors or (iv) by the holders of shares entitled to cast not less than 33 1/3% of the votes at the meeting, and shall be held at
such place, on such date, and at such time as the Board of Directors shall fix.
Penny Stock Regulation
The SEC has adopted regulations which
generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price of less than Five Dollars
($5.00) per share or an exercise price of less than Five Dollars ($5.00) per share. Such securities are subject to rules that impose
additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell them. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer
must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written
consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the
rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock
market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative,
current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact
and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, among other requirements, monthly statements must be sent
disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
As our common stock immediately following this offering may be subject to such penny stock rules, purchasers in this offering will,
in all likelihood, find it more difficult to sell their common stock shares in the secondary market.
Dividend Policy
We will not distribute cash to our common stock
stockholders until the Company generates net income. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of
our business and for general corporate purposes. We cannot assure you that we will distribute any cash in the future. Our cash distribution
policy is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon various factors, including our results of operations, financial
condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation and
bylaws, we have agreed to indemnify each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved
in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”),
by reason of the fact that he or she (or a person for whom he or she is a representative) is or was a director or an officer of the Company
or is or was serving at the request of the Company in any position or capacity for any other corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (hereinafter an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged
action in an official capacity or in any other capacity shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent
permitted by Nevada against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or
penalties and amounts paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that with
respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Company shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding

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

Item 16. Exhibit and Financial Statement Schedules
(a) Exhibits.
The exhibit index attached hereto is incorporated
herein by reference.
(b) Financial Statement Schedules.
Schedules have been omitted because the information
required to be set forth therein is not applicable or is shown in the financial statements or notes thereto.
Item 17. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers
or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
|
(i) |
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
(ii) |
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
|
(iii) |
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange 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. |
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability
under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating
to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall
be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. 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 first use, 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 date of first
use.
(5) That for the purpose of determining liability
of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of 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. |
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to
any charter provision, by law 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 of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than 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.
(7) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that:
|
(i) |
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and |
|
(ii) |
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
