PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED FEBRUARY 7, 2024

RiskOn International, Inc.

40,000,000 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the offer and resale of up to 40,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of RiskOn International, Inc. (f/k/a BitNile Metaverse, Inc.) (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), by Arena Business Solutions Global SPC II, Ltd., on behalf of and for the account of Segregated Portfolio #3 – SPC #3 (the “Selling Stockholder”). The shares included in this prospectus consist of (i) shares of our common stock that we may, in our discretion, elect to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder, from time to time after the date of this prospectus, pursuant to a Purchase Agreement we entered into with the Selling Stockholder on August 24, 2023, as amended by that Amendment No. 1 to Purchase Agreement, dated October 18, 2023 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), in which the Selling Stockholder has committed to purchase from us, at our direction, up to an aggregate of $96,993,004 of shares of common stock and (ii) an aggregate of $2,633,669 of shares of our common stock to be issued to the Selling Stockholder as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock at our election in our sole discretion, from time to time after the date of this prospectus (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). We are registering the resale of up to 40,000,000 of common stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement provides that we have the right to direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase up to an aggregate of $100 million of shares of our common stock (the “Maximum Commitment Amount”), of which $3,006,996 was previously registered, and, as consideration for the Selling Stockholder entering into the Purchase Agreement, we are required to issue to the Selling Stockholder, as a commitment fee, a number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal to $4 million, of which $1,366,331 was previously registered. See the section titled “Committed Equity Financing” for a description of the Purchase Agreement and the section titled “Selling Stockholder” for additional information regarding the Selling Stockholder.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we previously registered on Form S-1 under Registration No. 333-275122, the resale of up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder (the “Prior Registration Statement”). The Prior Registration Statement was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 20, 2023 and was declared effective by the SEC on October 30, 2023. As of January 19, 2024, we issued and sold 20,538,845 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for total gross proceeds of $3,006,996, and we issued 4,461,155 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock at our election in our sole discretion, which equated to a value of $1,366,331. As of January 19, 2024, $96,993,004 worth of shares of common stock remains available for future sales under the Purchase Agreement.

We are not selling any shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of such shares by the Selling Stockholder. However, we may receive up to $100 million in aggregate gross proceeds from sales of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder, inclusive of sales previously made as disclosed above, in our sole and absolute discretion, elect to make, from time to time over the approximately 36-month period commencing on the date of the Purchase Agreement (the “Commencement Date”), provided that this registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, and any other registration statement the Company may file from time to time, covering the resale by the Selling Stockholder of the shares of our common stock purchased from us by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is declared effective by the SEC and remains effective, and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied.

The Selling Stockholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of our common stock included in this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution” for more information about how the Selling Stockholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the common stock being offered in this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Company’s common stock trades on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ROI.” On February 7, 2024, the last reported sales price of the Company’s common stock, as reported by The Nasdaq Capital Market, was $0.1035 per share.

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined under the federal securities laws and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus and may elect to do so in future filings.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our securities and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

On March 15, 2023, Ecoark Holdings, Inc. changed its name to BitNile Metaverse, Inc.; subsequently, on November 1, 2023 it changed its name to RiskOn International, Inc. (the “Company”) and is a holding company incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2007. On February 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “SEA”) by and among Ault Alliance, Inc. (“AAI”), the owner of approximately 86% of BitNile.com, Inc. (“BNC”), a significant shareholder of the Company, and the minority shareholders of BNC (the “Minority Shareholders”). The SEA provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, the Company will acquire all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of BNC as well as the securities of Earnity, Inc. beneficially owned by BNC (which represents approximately 19.9% of the outstanding securities of Earnity, Inc. as of the date of the SEA), in exchange for the following: (i) 8,637.5 shares of newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company to be issued to Ault (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and (ii) 1,362.5 shares of newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company to be issued to the Minority Shareholders (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, the terms of which are summarized in more detail below, each have a stated value of $10,000 per share, for a combined stated value of $100,000,000, and subject to adjustment are convertible into a total of up to 13,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company has independently valued the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock as of the date of acquisition. The combined value of the shares issued to Ault was $53,913,000 using a blended fair value of the discounted cash flow method and option pricing method.

Through September 30, 2022, the Company’s former wholly owned subsidiaries with the exception of Agora Digital Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Agora”) and Zest Labs, Inc. (“Zest Labs”) have been treated for accounting purposes as divested. Please refer to our Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on July 14, 2023 for details on all of our prior subsidiaries that were divested in the year ended March 31, 2023 and an overview of the business conducted in those subsidiaries. On August 28, 2023, we executed a spin-off of Zest Labs, which owns intellectual property relating to agriculture shelf life and freshness management, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement whereby we sold all of the outstanding shares of Zest Labs, Inc. to Zest Labs Holding, LLC. The comparative financial statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 reflect the operations of those subsidiaries that were sold during the year ended March 31, 2022 as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Through BNC, we are primarily engaged in the development and operation of an online metaverse platform (the “Metaverse”). The Metaverse represents a significant development in the online metaverse landscape, offering immersive, interconnected digital experiences that are inclusive, engaging, and dynamic. By integrating various elements such as virtual markets, real world goods marketplaces and VIP experiences, gaming, social activities, sweepstakes, gambling, and more, the Company aims to revolutionize the way people interact online. Our virtual world, located at BitNile.com, is accessible via any device using any web browser, without requiring permissions, downloads, or apps, and the platform can be enjoyed without the need for bulky and costly virtual reality headsets.

Our games operate on a free-to-play model, whereby game players may collect coins free of charge through the passage of time and, if a game player wishes to obtain coins above and beyond the level of free coins available to that player, the player may purchase additional coin packages (“Freemium” gaming model). Once obtained, Nile Tokens and Nile Coins (either free or purchased) cannot be redeemed for cash or exchanged for anything outside of the metaverse. When coins are used and played in the games, the game player could “win” and would be awarded additional coins or could “lose” and lose the future use of those coins.

Our current and planned products and experiences are:

●

Virtual markets. The platform facilitates sales of digital assets the Company as well as third party vendors like virtual real estate, digital art, user customizations, and unique collectibles.

●

Real world goods marketplaces. The platform allows users to shop for a diverse range of real world products and VIP experiences.

●

Gaming. The platform provides an extensive selection of gaming options, including participation in games, sweepstakes and social gaming experiences, such as Blackjack.

●

Sweepstakes gaming. The platform features a dedicated gaming zone for users to engage in sweepstakes gaming, offering opportunities to win virtual and real money.

●

Contests of skill. The platform organizes competitions for users to showcase their talents and compete against others for prizes and recognition in various disciplines.

●

Building private spaces. The platform allows users to construct and customize their dream homes or private spaces.

●

Socialization and connectivity. The platform’s ongoing mission will be to foster global connections by enabling users to interact with individuals from around the world, forming new friendships, collaborating on projects or engaging in conversations within various social hubs.

●

Real and virtual concerts. We expect the platform to host live and virtual concerts within the metaverse, featuring performances from both real world and virtual artists, allowing users to attend and enjoy shows in an immersive environment.

Our Business Strategy

The metaverse industry is experiencing rapid growth and expansion, driven by advancements in technology, increased interest in virtual experiences and the rise of digital economies. Our business strategy revolves around creating a seamless, all-encompassing platform that caters to various user needs and interests.

The strategic pillars for the growth of our BitNile.com metaverse platform include (i) leveraging cutting-edge technology to offer a user-friendly, browser-based platform compatible with virtual reality headsets and other modern devices for an enhanced experience, (ii) providing a diverse range of products and experiences that caters to users with different interests and preferences, (iii) fostering global connections and a sense of community among users, encouraging socialization and collaboration, and (iv) focusing on continuous innovation to stay ahead of industry trends and customer expectations.

We expect to generate revenue in fiscal 2024 through the sale of tokens or coins that provide our end users with interactive entertainment (game play) and durable goods principally for the personal computer and mobile platforms.

Competition

The Company faces competition from existing metaverse platforms and new entrants. Key competitors include:

●

Established metaverse platforms, such as Decentraland, The Sandbox, and Second Life, as well as companies that develop metaverse tools and platforms such as META;

●

Gaming-focused platforms, like Fortnite and Roblox; and

●

Social media platforms that integrate metaverse elements, such as Facebook’s Horizon Workrooms.

Regulatory Environment

The Company operates within a complex and evolving regulatory landscape, with key considerations including:

●

Data privacy and protection regulations, such as GDPR and CCPA;

●

Compliance with gaming and gambling regulations in various jurisdictions; and

●

Intellectual property rights and digital asset ownership.

On November 2, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of Nasdaq stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 31 consecutive business days.

In accordance with Nasdaq listing rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 30, 2024, to regain compliance. The Deficiency Letter states that to regain compliance, the bid price for the Company’s common stock must close at $1.00 per share or more (the “Minimum Bid Price”) for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the compliance period ending April 30, 2024. In the event that the Company does not regain compliance within this 180-day period, the Company may be eligible to seek an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price, and provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency during this second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice to the Company that its common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

On November 14, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with AAI, pursuant to which we sold to AAI 603.44 shares of newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”) for a total purchase price of $15,085,930.69 (the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on November 15, 2023 (the “Closing Date”).

The purchase price was paid by the cancellation of $15,085,930.69 of cash advances made by AAI to us between January 1, 2023 and November 9, 2023.

The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificates of Designations of the Rights, Preferences and Limitations of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Certificate”). The shares of Series D Preferred Stock have a stated value of $25,000 per share (the “Series D Stated Value”). Pursuant to the Series D Certificate, each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into a number of shares of our common stock determined by dividing the Series D Stated Value by $0.51 (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment in the event of an issuance of common stock at a price per share lower than the Conversion Price then in effect, as well as upon customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events.

The Series D Preferred Stock holders are entitled to receive dividends at a rate of 10% of the Series D Stated Value per annum from issuance until November 14, 2033 (the “Dividend Term”). During the first two years of the Dividend Term, dividends will be payable, in our option, in additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock rather than cash, and thereafter dividends will be payable in either additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock or cash as the majority holder may elect. If the Company fails to make a dividend payment as required by the Series D Certificate, the dividend rate will be increased to 15% for as long as such default remains ongoing and uncured. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock also has a $25,000 liquidation preference in the event of a liquidation, change of control event, dissolution or winding up of our company, and ranks senior to all our other capital stock with respect thereto other than the existing Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, with which the Series D Preferred Stock shall have equal ranking. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis, with the common stock at a rate of 0.9 votes per share of common stock into which the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible.

In addition, for as long as at least 25% of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding, AAI must consent with respect to certain corporate events, including reclassifications, fundamental transactions, stock redemptions or repurchases, increases in the number of directors, and declarations or payment of dividends, and further we are subject to certain negative covenants, including covenants against issuing additional shares of capital stock or derivative securities, incurring indebtedness, engaging in related party transactions, selling of properties having a value of over $50,000, altering the number of directors, and discontinuing the business of any subsidiary, subject to certain exceptions and limitations.

The SPA provides the holders of Series D Preferred Stock with most favored nations rights in the event we offer securities with more favorable terms than the Series D Preferred Stock for as long as the shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding. Under the SPA, while any shares of Series D Preferred Stock are outstanding, we are prohibited from redeeming or declaring or paying dividends on outstanding securities other than the Series D Preferred Stock. Further, the SPA prohibits us from issuing or amending securities at a price per share below the Conversion Price, or to engage in variable rate transactions, for a period ending on the earlier of (i) four (4) years from the Closing Date and (ii) the date that AAI holds less than 250 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

On December 1, 2023, Nasdaq notified the Company that it had rejected the Company’s Compliance Plans, citing the lack of a definitive strategy to promptly comply with the ongoing listing standards and to maintain such compliance long-term. As a result, unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination, the Staff has determined that the Company’s common stock would be scheduled for delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market and would be suspended at the opening of business on December 12, 2023 and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the SEC, which would remove the Company’s common stock from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

The Company requested an appeal of the Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. The hearing request stayed the suspension of the Company’s common stock and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel’s decision, and the Company’s common stock continues to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ROI.” The hearing is scheduled for February 29, 2024. There can be no assurance as to the success or outcome of the appeal to the Panel.

On January 9, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Staff of Nasdaq notifying the Company that the Staff had determined that the Company violated the Voting Rights Rule. The alleged violation of the Voting Rights Rule relates to the issuance of 603.44 shares of newly designated Preferred Shares in exchange for the cancellation of $15,085,930.69 of cash advances made by AAI to the Company between January 1 and November 9, 2023, pursuant to the Agreement by and between the Company and AAI.

According to the letter, Nasdaq determined that because the Series D Preferred Stock could convert into a discount to the price of the common stock on the date of execution of the SPA, and because the shares of Series D Preferred Stock vote on an as-converted basis, the Series D Preferred Stock violates the Voting Rights Rule. The Company notes that the violation is based on a hypothetical situation in the future, in which the anti-dilution protection triggers a ratchet down of the Conversion Price below the minimum price per share of the Company’s common stock at the time of the issuance of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

Under the Voting Rights Rule, a company cannot create a new class of security that votes at a higher rate than an existing class of securities or take any other action that has the effect of restricting or reducing the voting rights of an existing class of securities. As such, according to the letter, the issuance of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock violated the Voting Rights Rule because the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis, thus could have greater voting rights than holders of common stock.

As disclosed above, the Company has appealed a prior determination of the Staff to delist the Company’s common stock to the Panel. The Panel will hear the Company’s appeal on February 29, 2024. According to the letter, the Voting Rights Rule matter serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq. Further, according to the letter, because this is the Company’s third incidence of violating the Voting Rights Rule, this demonstrates a pattern of disregard for the Nasdaq listing rules and serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq. As such, the Panel will consider these matters in connection with the Company’s appeal.

The letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the letter and other continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Effective January 29, 2024, the Company accepted the resignations of Randy May, its former Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and Chief Executive Officer, and Jay Puchir, its former Chief Financial Officer, each of which was submitted on January 28, 2024. Neither Randy May’s nor Jay Puchir’s resignation was the result of any disagreement with the Company, or its management on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. In addition, on January 29, 2024, the Company appointed (i) Milton C. Ault, III as its Chairman of the Board as well as its Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Kayson Pulsipher as its Chief Financial Officer, (iii) William B. Horne to the Board, (iv) Steve J. Smith to the Board, (v) Joseph M. Spaziano as its Chief Operating Officer, and (vi) Douglas Gintz as its Chief Technology Officer.

Committed Equity Financing

On August 24, 2023, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder. On October 18, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder to remove the floor price limitation.

The Purchase Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, we have the right to direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase up to an aggregate of $100 million of shares of our common stock over the 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement. Under the Purchase Agreement, after the satisfaction of certain commencement conditions, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of a registration statement, we have the right to present the Selling Stockholder with an Advance Notice directing the Selling Stockholder to purchase any amount up to the Maximum Advance Amount (as described below).

The Maximum Advance Amount is calculated as follows: (a) if the Advance Notice is received by 8:30 a.m., Eastern time, the lower of: (i) an amount equal to 40% of the average of the Daily Value Traded (as defined below) of our common stock on the ten trading days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, or (ii) $20,000,000, and (b) if the Advance Notice is received after 8:30 a.m., but prior to 10:30 a.m., Eastern time, the lower of (i) an amount equal to 30% of the average of the Daily Value Traded of our common stock on the ten trading days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, or (ii) $15,000,000. For these purposes, “Daily Value Traded” is the product obtained by multiplying the daily trading volume of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market during regular trading hours, as reported by Bloomberg L.P., by the VWAP (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for that trading day.

The number of shares that we can issue to the Selling Stockholder from time to time under the Purchase Agreement is subject to the Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). We control the timing and amount of sales of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder has no right to require any sales by us, and is obligated to make purchases from us as directed solely by us in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The Selling Stockholder has agreed that neither it nor any of its agents, representatives and affiliates will engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging our common stock during any time prior to the termination of the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement for the resale by the Selling Stockholder of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) no later than November 30, 2023. Pursuant to the Prior Registration Statement, we previously registered the resale of up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder. The Prior Registration Statement was filed with the SEC on October 20, 2023 and was declared effective by the SEC on October 30, 2023. As of January 19, 2024, we issued and sold 20,538,845 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for total gross proceeds of $3,006,996, and we issued 4,461,155 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock at our election in our sole discretion, which equated to a value of $1,366,331. As of January 19, 2024, $96,993,004 worth of shares of common stock remains available for future sales under the Purchase Agreement.

In consideration for the Selling Stockholder’s execution of the Purchase Agreement, we are required to issue to the Selling Stockholder, as a commitment fee, a number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal to $4,000,000. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we previously delivered irrevocable instructions to our transfer agent to electronically transfer to the Selling Stockholder that number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal to $1,000,000 based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the effectiveness of the Prior Registration Statement (the “Initial Issuance”), which such number of shares amounted to 1,461,155 shares of common stock. We will deliver irrevocable instructions to our transfer agent to electronically transfer to the Selling Stockholder that number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal $3,000,000 based on the per common stock price as follows: (i) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the three-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the three-month anniversary, (ii) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the six-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the six-month anniversary and (iii) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the nine-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the nine-month anniversary. We and the Selling Stockholder agreed to advance 3,000,000 shares of common stock as partial consideration of the $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares due on the three-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance. Such 3,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to the Selling Stockholder on January 18, 2024 and equated to a value of $450,000.

The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time after commencement, at our discretion; provided that upon early termination we are required to issue the outstanding Commitment Fee Shares to the Selling Stockholder. The Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate on the date that we sell, and the Selling Stockholder purchases, the full $100 million amount under the agreement or, if the full amount has not been purchased, on the expiration of the 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement.

Previous Transaction with Related Entity of Selling Stockholder

On April 27, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, which included affiliates of the Selling Stockholder, providing for the issuance of (i) Senior Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal face amount of $6,875,000, which notes are convertible into shares of our common stock; and (ii) five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,100,905 shares of our common stock. For further information, see the section titled “Selling Stockholder – Material Relationship Between the Company and the Selling Stockholder.”

THE OFFERING

Issuer		RiskOn International, Inc.

Shares of our common stock offered by the Selling Stockholder		Up to 40,000,000 shares of our common stock, consisting of (i) an indeterminable number of shares of our common stock that may be issued as Commitment Fee Shares to the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, if any, and (ii) an indeterminable number of shares of our common stock we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement from time to time after the Commencement Date, if any.

Shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 19, 2024		32,627,248 shares of common stock⁽¹⁾

Shares of our common stock outstanding after giving effect to the issuance of the shares registered hereunder		83,150,590 shares of common stock⁽²⁾

Use of proceeds		We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of our shares of common stock included in this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder. However, we may receive up to $100 million in aggregate gross proceeds under the Purchase Agreement from sales of our shares of common stock, inclusive of sales previously made as disclosed above, that we may elect to make to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, from time to time in our sole discretion, from and after the Commencement Date. We may use some of the net proceeds that we receive from sales of our shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder, if any, under the Purchase Agreement to repay outstanding debt. We expect to use any remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including working capital and supporting our growth initiatives discussed under “Prospectus Summary – Our Business Strategy.” The precise amount and timing of the application of such proceeds will depend upon our liquidity needs and the availability and cost of other capital over which we have little or no control. As of the date hereof, we cannot specify with certainty the particular uses for the net proceeds. For more information see the section herein titled “Use of Proceeds.”

Liquidity		This offering involves the potential sale of up to $96,993,004. Once this registration statement is effective and during such time as it remains effective, the Selling Stockholder will be permitted to sell the shares, if any. The resale, or expected or potential resale, of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price for our common stock and make it more difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of our common stock at times and prices that you feel are appropriate.

Risk Factors		See the section herein titled “Risk Factors” and the other information included in this prospectus for a discussion of factors you should consider carefully before deciding to invest in our securities.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as those set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and subsequent Current Reports on Form 8-K which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as well as the other information set forth in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein, before deciding whether to invest in our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of may become important factors that affect us. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results may suffer, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to the Offering

It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares of common stock we will sell under the Purchase Agreement to the Selling Stockholder, or the actual gross proceeds resulting from those sales. Further, we may not have access to the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder.

On August 24, 2023, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder has committed to purchase up to the $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount of our common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement may be sold by us to the Selling Stockholder at our discretion from time to time beginning on the Commencement Date and during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. Sales of our common stock, if any, to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Stockholder all, some or none of the shares of our common stock that may be available for us to sell to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Depending on market liquidity at the time, resales of those shares by the Selling Stockholder may cause the public trading price of our common stock to decrease.

Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for the shares of our common stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our common stock during the applicable Pricing Period (as defined below) for each sale made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, it is not possible for us to predict, as of the date of this prospectus and prior to any such sales, the number of shares of our common stock that we will sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price per share that the Selling Stockholder will pay for shares purchased from us under the Purchase Agreement, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any. For these purposes, “Pricing Period” means one trading day, as notified by the Company to the Selling Stockholder in the applicable Advance Notice, commencing on the date of the Advance Notice.

Moreover, although the Purchase Agreement provides that we may, in our discretion, from time to time beginning on the Commencement Date and during the term of the Purchase Agreement, direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase shares of common stock from us in one or more purchases under the Purchase Agreement, up to the Maximum Commitment Amount, if any, only 40,000,000 shares of our common stock are being registered for resale under this registration statement, which this prospectus forms a part. Additionally, because the price per share on which the Commitment Fee Shares is based will fluctuate based on market prices of our common stock during the applicable time periods during which the VWAP for such issuable shares is calculated, it is not possible for us to predict the number of Commitment Fee Shares or the number of Commitment Fee Shares issuable to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, the number of shares of our common stock we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder, from time to time from and after the Commencement Date under the Purchase Agreement cannot be determined at this time. Even assuming the 40,000,000 shares of common stock offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus were sold by us to the Selling Stockholder for a per share price of $0.1421 (which represents the last reported sales price of our common stock, as reported by The Nasdaq Capital Market on January 22, 2024), less a 5% discount (the same fixed percentage discount that will be used to calculate the applicable per share purchase price for shares of common stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement), we would only receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5,399,800, which is substantially less than the $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount available to us under the Purchase Agreement. Therefore, because the market prices of our common stock may fluctuate from time to time after the date of this prospectus and, as a result, the actual purchase prices to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for shares of our common stock that we direct it to purchase under the Purchase Agreement, if any, also may fluctuate because they will be based on such fluctuating market prices of our common stock, it is possible that we may need to issue and sell more than the number of shares being registered for resale under this prospectus to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the Selling Stockholder’s $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount under the Purchase Agreement.

If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more shares of our common stock than are being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to $100 million from sales of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, we must first file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder of any such additional shares of our common stock we wish to sell to the Selling Stockholder from time to time under the Purchase Agreement, and the SEC must declare such additional registration statements effective before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. The number of shares of our common stock ultimately offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares of our common stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.

Any issuance and sale by us under the Purchase Agreement of a substantial amount of shares of our common stock in addition to the 40,000,000 shares of common stock being registered for resale under this prospectus could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders.

Our inability to access a portion or the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement, in the absence of any other financing sources, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The sale and issuance of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder will cause dilution to our existing stockholders, and the sale of the shares of our common stock acquired by the Selling Stockholder, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our common stock to fall.

The purchase price for the shares that we may sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the price of the shares of our common stock. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of such shares may cause the trading price of our common stock to fall.

If and when we do sell shares to the Selling Stockholder, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired the shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some, or none of those shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion. Therefore, sales to the Selling Stockholder by us could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

Pursuant to the Prior Registration Statement, we previously registered the resale of up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder. The Prior Registration Statement was filed with the SEC on October 20, 2023 and was declared effective by the SEC on October 30, 2023. As of January 19, 2024, we issued and sold 20,538,845 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for total gross proceeds of $3,006,996, and we issued 4,461,155 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock at our election in our sole discretion, which equated to a value of $1,366,331. As of January 19, 2024, $96,993,004 worth of shares of common stock remains available for future sales under the Purchase Agreement.

Investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and subject to market demand, we will have discretion to vary the timing, prices, and numbers of shares sold to the Selling Stockholder. If and when we do elect to sell shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase shares from the Selling Stockholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase from the Selling Stockholder in this offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Stockholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Stockholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales.

The Selling Stockholder will pay less than the then-prevailing market price for our common stock, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

The purchase price of our common stock to be sold to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement is derived from the market price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Shares to be sold to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be purchased at a discounted price. We may effect sales at a price equal to 95% of the lower of (i) the lowest sale price of the common stock during the Pricing Period and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three (3) lowest closing prices of the common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding such Advance Notice Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (see “Committed Equity Financing—Purchase of Shares under the Purchase Agreement”). As a result of this pricing structure, the Selling Stockholder may sell the shares it receives immediately after receipt of the shares, which could cause the price of our common stock to decrease.

Our management team will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from our sale of shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder, if any, and you may not agree with how we use the proceeds and the proceeds may not be invested successfully.

Our management team will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from the sale of our shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder, if any, and we could use such proceeds for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of commencement of this offering. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management team with regard to the use of those net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest those net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for us. The failure of our management team to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

We are not in compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements. If we are unable to comply with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market, our common stock could be delisted, which could affect our common stock’s market price and liquidity and reduce our ability to raise capital.

On July 18, 2023, we received a deficiency letter from Nasdaq notifying us that we are not in compliance with the Equity Rule for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Equity Rule requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 reported stockholders’ equity of approximately $(13.9) million, which is below the Equity Rule requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, we were provided 45 calendar days from the receipt of the Nasdaq notification, or until September 1, 2023, to submit a Plan to regain compliance. We initially submitted that Plan on August 25, 2023, which was subsequently revised on September 6, 2023 and September 14, 2023.

On December 1, 2023, Nasdaq notified us that it had rejected our Compliance Plans, citing the lack of a definitive strategy to promptly comply with the ongoing listing standards and to maintain such compliance long-term. As a result, unless we requested an appeal of this determination, Nasdaq determined that our common stock would be scheduled for delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market and would be suspended at the opening of business on December 12, 2023 and a Form 25-NSE would be filed with the SEC. On December 8, 2023, we requested a hearing before the Panel to appeal the determination. The hearing has been scheduled for February 29, 2024. At the hearing, we must demonstrate our ability to regain compliance with the Equity Rule, as well as our ability to sustain long-term compliance with all applicable maintenance criteria. The hearing request stays the suspension of our common stock and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel’s decision, and our common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ROI.” There can be no assurance as to the success or outcome of the appeal to the Panel.

In addition, on November 2, 2023, we received a notice in the form of a letter from the Staff stating that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the bid price for our common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 31 consecutive business days.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have 180 calendar days, or until April 30, 2024, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The deficiency letter states that to regain compliance, the bid price for our common stock must close at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the compliance period ending April 30, 2024. In the event that we do not regain compliance within this 180-day period, we may be eligible to seek an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days if we meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price, and provides written notice to Nasdaq of our intent to cure the deficiency during this second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide us with notice that our common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. The deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of our common stock, and our common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ROI.”

We intend to actively monitor the closing bid price of our common stock between now and April 30, 2024 and may, if appropriate, evaluate available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price requirement. While we are exercising diligent efforts to maintain the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing standards.

Also, on January 9, 2024, we received a letter from the Staff notifying us that the Staff had determined that we violated the Voting Rights Rule. The alleged violation of the Voting Rights Rule relates to the issuance of 603.44 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company in exchange for the cancellation of $15,085,930.69 of cash advances made by AAI to the Company between January 1 and November 9, 2023, pursuant to the SPA by and between the Company and AAI.

The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock are as set forth in the Series D Certificate. Pursuant to the Series D Certificate, each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into a number of shares of our common stock determined by dividing the Series D Stated Value by $0.51. The Conversion Price, which represented a premium to the closing price of our common stock on the date of execution of the SPA, is also subject to adjustment in the event of an issuance of our common stock at a price per share lower than the Conversion Price then in effect. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis, with our common stock at a rate of 0.9 votes per share of common stock into which the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible.

According to the letter, Nasdaq determined that because the shares of Series D Preferred Stock could convert into a discount to the price of our common stock on the date of execution of the SPA, and because the Series D Preferred Stock votes on an as-converted basis, the Series D Preferred Stock violates the Voting Rights Rule. We note that the violation is based on a hypothetical situation in the future, in which the anti-dilution protection triggers a ratchet down of the Conversion Price below the minimum price per share of our common stock at the time of the issuance of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

As disclosed above, we have appealed a prior determination of the Staff to delist our common stock to the Panel. The Panel will hear our appeal on February 29, 2024. According to the letter, the Voting Rights Rule matter serves as an additional basis for delisting our common stock from the Nasdaq. Further, according to the letter, because this is our third incidence of violating the Voting Rights Rule, this demonstrates a pattern of disregard for the Nasdaq listing rules and serves as an additional basis for delisting our common stock from the Nasdaq. As such, the Panel will consider these matters in connection with our appeal.

If our common stock is delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell our common stock and to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of our common stock could suffer a material decline. Delisting could also impair the liquidity of our common stock and could harm our ability to raise capital through alternative financing sources on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and may result in potential loss of confidence by investors, employees, and fewer business development opportunities.

COMMITTED EQUITY FINANCING

On August 24, 2023, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder has committed to purchase up to the $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount of our common stock at our direction from time to time, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement. On October 18, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder to remove the floor price limitation.

Such sales of our common stock, if any, will be subject to certain limitations, and may occur from time to time at our sole discretion over the approximately 36-month period commencing on the date of the Purchase Agreement, provided that this registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, and any other registration statement the Company may file from time to time, covering the resale by the Selling Stockholder of the shares of our common stock purchased from us by the Selling Stockholder is declared effective by the SEC and remains effective, and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied.

The Selling Stockholder has no right to require us to sell any shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder, but the Selling Stockholder is obligated to make purchases at our direction subject to certain conditions. There is no upper limit on the price per share that the Selling Stockholder could be obligated to pay for our common stock under the Purchase Agreement.

Actual sales of shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder from time to time will depend on a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and determinations by us as to the appropriate sources of funding for us and our operations. The net proceeds that we may receive under the Purchase Agreement, if any, cannot be determined at this time, since it will depend on the frequency and prices at which we sell shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder, our ability to meet the conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the other limitations, terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and any impacts of the Ownership Limitation. The Company may use some of the proceeds received by the Company from such sales to the Selling Stockholder, if any, to repay outstanding debt. The Company expects to use any remaining proceeds received by the Company from such sales to the Selling Stockholder, if any, for general corporate purposes, including working capital and supporting our growth initiatives discussed under “Prospectus Summary – Our Business Strategy.”

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties.

Purchase of Shares Under the Purchase Agreement

We may direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase amounts of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement that we specify from time to time in one or more Advance Notices delivered to the Selling Stockholder on any trading day up to the Maximum Commitment Amount. The Maximum Commitment Amount that we may specify in any one Advance Notice is equal to the following: (A) if the Advance Notice is received by 8:30 a.m., Eastern time, the lower of: (i) an amount equal to 40% of the average of the Daily Value Traded of our common stock on the ten trading days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, or (ii) $20,000,000, and (B) if the Advance Notice is received after 8:30 a.m., but prior to 10:30 a.m., Eastern time, the lower of (i) an amount equal to 30% of the average of the Daily Value Traded of our common stock on the ten trading days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, or (ii) $15,000,000. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions under the Purchase Agreement, we may deliver Advance Notices from time to time, provided that the Pricing Period for all prior advances has been completed.

The purchase price of the shares of our common stock will be equal to 95% of the lower of (i) the lowest sale price of the common stock during the Pricing Period and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing prices of the common stock during the ten consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding such date of the Advance Notice.

Fees

As consideration for the Selling Stockholder’s irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock upon the terms of and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to the Selling Stockholder, as a commitment fee, a number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal to $4,000,000. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we previously delivered irrevocable instructions to our transfer agent to electronically transfer to the Selling Stockholder that number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal to $1,000,000 based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the effectiveness of the Prior Registration Statement, which such number of shares amounted to 1,461,155 shares of common stock. We will deliver irrevocable instructions to our transfer agent to electronically transfer to the Selling Stockholder that number of shares of common stock having an aggregate dollar value equal $3,000,000 based on the per common stock price as follows: (i) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the three-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the three-month anniversary, (ii) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the six-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the six-month anniversary and (iii) $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares on the nine-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance based on the per common stock price equal to the simple average of the daily VWAP of the common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the nine-month anniversary. We and the Selling Stockholder agreed to advance 3,000,000 shares of common stock as partial consideration of the $1,000,000 worth of the Commitment Fee Shares due on the three-month anniversary of the Initial Issuance. Such 3,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to the Selling Stockholder on January 18, 2024 and equated to a value of $450,000. The Commitment Fee Shares are covered by this prospectus.

Conditions to Delivery of Advance Notices

Our ability to deliver Advance Notices to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, all of which are entirely outside of the Selling Stockholder’s control, including, among other things, the following:

the accuracy in all material respects of our representations and warranties included in the Purchase Agreement;

the effectiveness of this registration statement that includes this prospectus (and any one or more additional registration statements filed with the SEC that include the Commitment Fee Shares and shares of our common stock that may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement);

the Company having obtained all required permits and qualifications for the offer and sale of all shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to such Advance Notice;

no Material Outside Event (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred or be continuing;

us having performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Purchase Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by us;

the absence of any statute, regulation, order, decree, ruling or injunction by any court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction which prohibits or directly, materially and adversely affects any of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;

trading in our common stock shall not have been suspended by Nasdaq, we shall not have received any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of our common stock on Nasdaq shall be terminated;

there shall be a sufficient number of authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of common stock for the issuance of all the common stock issuable pursuant to such Advance Notice;

the representations contained in the applicable Advance Notice shall be true and correct in all material respects; and

the Pricing Period for all prior Advance Notices shall have been completed.

Limitations on Sales

The Purchase Agreement prohibits us from directing the Selling Stockholder to purchase any shares of our common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates as a result of purchases under the Purchase Agreement, would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates having beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of our then outstanding shares of common stock.

No Short-Selling or Hedging by the Selling Stockholder

The Selling Stockholder has agreed that, during the term of the Purchase Agreement, neither the Selling Stockholder nor any of its affiliates will engage in any short sales or hedging transactions with respect to our common stock.

Termination of the Purchase Agreement

Unless earlier terminated as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earliest to occur of:

the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement; or

the date on which the Selling Stockholder shall have purchased shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement for an aggregate gross purchase price equal to the Maximum Commitment Amount under the Purchase Agreement.

We have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, at no cost or penalty, upon five trading days’ prior written notice to the Selling Stockholder, provided that there are no outstanding Advance Notices, the shares of common stock under which have not yet been issued and we have paid all amounts owed to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. We and the Selling Stockholder may also terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time by mutual written consent.

Prohibition of “Dilutive Issuances” During Pending Purchases and Certain Variable Rate Transactions

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, from the date of the Purchase Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date that the Selling Stockholder has purchased $25 million worth of shares of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement, (ii) 12 months after effectiveness of the Prior Registration Statement or (iii) four months after the termination of the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to its terms, the Company is prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance of our common stock or common share equivalents involving a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), other than in connection with an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or with the prior written consent of the Selling Stockholder. There are no restrictions relating to rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement.

Effect of Sales of our Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement on our Stockholders

All shares of our common stock that may be issued or sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement that are being registered under the Securities Act for resale by the Selling Stockholder in this prospectus are expected to be freely tradable. The shares of common stock being registered for resale in this prospectus may be issued and sold by us to the Selling Stockholder from time to time at our discretion over an approximately 36-month period commencing on the date of the Purchase Agreement, provided that this registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, and any other registration statement the Company may file from time to time, covering the resale by the Selling Stockholder of the shares of our common stock purchased from us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is declared effective by the SEC and remains effective, and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied. The resale by the Selling Stockholder of a significant amount of shares registered for resale in this offering at any given time, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile. Sales of the shares, if any, to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Stockholder all, some or none of the shares that may be available for us to sell to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

If and when we do elect to sell the shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired such shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices. As a result, investors who purchase shares of our common stock from the Selling Stockholder in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares of common stock, and so may experience different levels of dilution and in some cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares of our common stock they purchase from the Selling Stockholder in this offering as a result of future sales made by us to the Selling Stockholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid for their shares in this offering. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Stockholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales.

Although the Purchase Agreement provides that we may, in our discretion, from time to time after the date of this prospectus and during the term of the Purchase Agreement, direct the Selling Stockholder to purchase shares of our common stock from us in one or more purchases under the Purchase Agreement for the Maximum Commitment Amount of up to $100 million, only 40,000,000 shares of our common stock are being registered for resale under the registration statement that includes this prospectus, inclusive of the Commitment Fee Shares. Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for our shares of common stock that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our common stock during the applicable Pricing Period for each sale made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, it is not possible for us to predict, as of the date of this prospectus and prior to any such sales, the number of shares of common stock that we will sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price per share that the Selling Stockholder will pay for shares purchased from us under the Purchase Agreement, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, if any. Accordingly, it is possible that we may need to issue and sell more than the number of shares being registered for resale under this prospectus to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the Selling Stockholder’s $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount under the Purchase Agreement.

If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more shares of our common stock than are being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, we must first file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Selling Stockholder of any such additional shares we wish to sell to the Selling Stockholder from time to time under the Purchase Agreement, and the SEC must declare such additional registration statements effective under the Securities Act before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. The number of shares of our common stock ultimately offered for sale by the Selling Stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares of our common stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.

The issuance of shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing stockholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing stockholders will be diluted. Although the number of shares of common stock that our existing stockholders own will not decrease, the shares of common stock owned by our existing stockholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares of common stock after any such issuance.

Dilutive Effect of Performance of the Purchase Agreement on our Stockholders

All of our shares of common stock registered in this offering, which may be issued or sold by us to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, are expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that the common stock registered in this offering will be sold by us to the Selling Stockholder over a period of up to 36 months after August 24, 2023. The sale by the Selling Stockholder of a significant amount of our common stock registered in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile.

Sales of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder, if any, will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Selling Stockholder all, some or none of our shares of common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (i.e., up to $100 million in shares of our common stock).

Issuances of our common stock in this offering will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing stockholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing stockholders will be diluted as a result of any such issuance. Although the number of shares of common stock that our existing stockholders own will not decrease, the shares owned by our existing stockholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares after any such issuance to the Selling Stockholder. If and when we do sell our common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, after the Selling Stockholder has acquired those shares, the Selling Stockholder may resell all, some or none of such shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion. Therefore, issuances to the Selling Stockholder by us under the Purchase Agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of our shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of our common stock or the mere existence of our arrangement with the Selling Stockholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any additional sales of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder and the Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion (see subsection entitled “Termination of the Purchase Agreement” above).

The following table sets forth the amount of gross proceeds we would receive from the Selling Stockholder from our sale of shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement registered hereunder at varying purchase prices:

Assumed Purchase Price Per Share⁽¹⁾	Number of shares of Common Stock to be Issued if Full Purchase⁽²⁾	Percentage of Outstanding Common Stock After Giving Effect to the Issuance to the Selling Stockholder⁽³⁾	Proceeds from the Sale of Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder Under the Purchase Agreement⁽⁴⁾
$0.134995⁽⁵⁾	40,000,000	48.1%	$	5,399,800
$0.25	40,000,000	48.1%	$	10,000,000
$0.50	40,000,000	48.1%	$	20,000,000

$1.50	40,000,000	48.1%	$	60,000,000
$1.75	40,000,000	48.1%	$	70,000,000

____________

(1)

For the avoidance of any doubt, this price would reflect the Purchase Price after calculation (i.e., after discounts to the market price of our shares) in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

(2)

We are registering 40,000,000 shares of our common stock, consisting of (a) an indeterminable number of shares of our common stock that may be issued as Commitment Fee Shares to the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, if any, and (b) an indeterminable number of shares of our common stock we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement from time to time as described in this section. As a result, we have included in this column all of the shares of our common stock that we are registering under this prospectus, without regard for the beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99%.

(3)

The denominator is based on 32,627,248 shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 19, 2024, adjusted to include the issuance of the number of shares of common stock set forth in the adjacent column which we would have issued to the Selling Stockholder based on the applicable assumed purchase price per share, and includes the 8,422,437 shares of common stock assumed to be issued in full upon the conversion of our senior secured convertible notes and the 2,100,905 shares of common stock assumed to be issued in full upon the exercise of our warrants to purchase common stock.

(4)

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the Commitment Fee Shares to the Selling Stockholder. As noted above, the exact number of Commitment Fee Shares to be issued to the Selling Stockholder cannot yet be determined. The proceeds reflected in this column would be reduced by an amount equal to the product of the final Commitment Fee Shares multiplied by the assumed purchase price per share of common stock.

(5)

Represents the last reported sales price of the Company’s common stock on January 22, 2024, as reported by The Nasdaq Capital Market, less a 5% discount.

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 Stockholder. All of our common stock offered by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the Selling Stockholder for its own account. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these sales. We cannot currently determine the price or prices at which shares of our common stock may be sold by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus.

We may receive up to $100 million aggregate gross proceeds under the Purchase Agreement from any sales we make to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, inclusive of sales previously made as disclosed below. However, we are unable to estimate the actual amount of proceeds that we may receive, as it will depend on the number of shares that we choose to sell, our ability to meet the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, market conditions and the price of shares of our common stock, among other factors. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution” elsewhere in this prospectus for more information.

We may use some of the proceeds that we receive under the Purchase Agreement to repay outstanding debt. We expect to use any remaining proceeds that we receive under the Purchase Agreement for general corporate purposes, including working capital and supporting our growth initiatives discussed under “Prospectus Summary – Our Business Strategy.” As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses, and the respective amounts we may allocate to those uses, for any net proceeds we receive. Accordingly, we will retain broad discretion over the use of these proceeds.

Pursuant to the Prior Registration Statement, we previously registered the resale of up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder. The Prior Registration Statement was filed with the SEC on October 20, 2023 and was declared effective by the SEC on October 30, 2023. As of January 19, 2024, we issued and sold 20,538,845 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for total gross proceeds of $3,006,996, and we issued 4,461,155 shares of common stock to the Selling Stockholder as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of our common stock at our election in our sole discretion, which equated to a value of $1,366,331. We used such proceeds for general corporate purposes. As of January 19, 2024, $96,993,004 worth of shares of common stock remains available for future sales under the Purchase Agreement.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

This prospectus relates to the offer and sale by the Selling Stockholder of up to 40,000,000 shares of our common stock that may be issued by us to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement. For additional information regarding the shares of our common stock included in this prospectus, see the section titled “Committed Equity Financing” above. We are registering the shares of common stock included in this prospectus pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the shares included in this prospectus for resale from time to time. Except for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and as set forth in this section below, the Selling Stockholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The table below presents information regarding the Selling Stockholder and the shares of our common stock that may be resold by the Selling Stockholder from time to time under this prospectus. This table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the Selling Stockholder, and reflects holdings as of January 19, 2024. The number of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares of Our Common Stock to be Offered Pursuant to this Prospectus” represents all of the shares of our common stock being offered for resale by the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder may sell some, all or none of the shares being offered for resale in this offering. We do not know how long the Selling Stockholder will hold the shares before selling them. Except as set forth in the section titled “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus, we are not aware of any existing arrangements between the Selling Stockholder and any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares of our common stock being offered for resale by this prospectus.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and includes shares of our common stock with respect to which the Selling Stockholder has sole or shared voting and investment power. The percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder prior to the offering shown in the table below is based on an aggregate of 32,627,248 shares of common stock outstanding on January 19, 2024. Because the purchase price to be paid by the Selling Stockholder for shares of our common stock, if any, that we may elect to sell to the Selling Stockholder in one or more purchases from time to time under the Purchase Agreement will be determined on the applicable dates for such purchases, the actual number of shares of our common stock that we may sell to the Selling Stockholder under the Purchase Agreement may be fewer than the number of shares being offered for resale under this prospectus. The fourth column assumes the resale by the Selling Stockholder of all of the shares of our common stock being offered for resale pursuant to this prospectus.

(1)

In accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act, we have excluded from the number of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering all of the Commitment Fee Shares and the shares that the Selling Stockholder may be required to purchase under the Purchase Agreement, because the issuance of such shares is solely at our discretion and is subject to conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement, the satisfaction of which are entirely outside of the Selling Stockholder’s control, including this registration statement that includes this prospectus becoming and remaining effective. Furthermore, the purchases of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement are subject to certain agreed upon maximum amount limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Also, the Purchase Agreement prohibits us from issuing and selling any shares of our common stock to the Selling Stockholder to the extent such shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our common stock then beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder, would cause the Selling Stockholder’s beneficial ownership of our common stock to exceed the 4.99% Ownership Limitation. The Ownership Limitation may not be amended or waived under the Purchase Agreement.

The total amount held by such related entities of the Selling Stockholder are subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation.

Material Relationship Between the Company and the Selling Stockholder

On April 27, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, which included affiliates of the Selling Stockholder, providing for the issuance of (i) Senior Secured Convertible Notes (individually, a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”) with an aggregate principal face amount of $6,875,000, which Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock (the “Conversion Shares”); and (ii) five-year warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 2,100,905 shares of our common stock (the “Warrant Shares”). As of January 19, 2024, Notes with an aggregate principal face amount of $4,244,908 were outstanding.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and Arena Investors, LP, as the collateral agent on behalf of the accredited investors (the “Agent”) entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company (i) pledged the equity interests in its subsidiaries and (ii) granted to the accredited investors a security interest in, among other items, all of the Company’s deposit accounts, securities accounts, chattel paper, documents, equipment, general intangibles, instruments and inventory, and all proceeds therefrom (the “Assets”), as set forth in the Security Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company’s subsidiaries granted to the accredited investors a security interest in its Assets and, pursuant to a Subsidiary Guaranty (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”), jointly and severally agreed to guarantee and act as surety for the Company’s obligation to repay the Notes and other obligations under the other transaction documents.

The Notes are further secured by a guaranty provided by AAI, an affiliate of the Company, as well as by Milton C. Ault, III, the Executive Chairman of AAI, and his spouse.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and the accredited investors entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement to register the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares within 15 days after the Company filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2023 (the “Filing Deadline”) and to have such registration statement effective within 90 days of the Filing Deadline (the “Effective Deadline”). The registration statement was filed by the Filing Deadline and declared effective by the Effective Deadline.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and certain of its stockholders also entered into (i) a voting agreement, pursuant to which such stockholders agreed to vote their shares of the Company’s common stock in favor of the stockholder approval described above and (ii) a lockup agreement, pursuant to which such stockholder agreed not to sell any shares of the Company’s common stock until 30 days after the Notes are no longer outstanding.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

On August 24, 2023, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder has committed to purchase up to the $100 million Maximum Commitment Amount of our common stock at our direction from time to time, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in the Purchase Agreement. On October 18, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholder to remove the floor price limitation.

From time to time, and at our sole discretion, we may present the Selling Stockholder with Advance Notices to purchase shares of our common stock. The purchase price of the shares of our common stock will be equal to 95% of the lower of (i) the lowest sale price of the common stock during the Pricing Period and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three (3) lowest closing prices of the common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding such date of the Advance Notice.

The shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus are being offered by the Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. We have agreed in the Purchase Agreement to provide customary indemnification to the Selling Stockholder.

It is possible that our shares may be sold from time to time by the Selling Stockholder in one or more of the following manners:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

a block trade in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

to a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; or

a combination of any such methods of sale.

The Selling Stockholder and any unaffiliated broker-dealer will be subject to liability under the federal securities laws and must comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act, including without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our common stock by the Selling Stockholder or any unaffiliated broker-dealer. Under these rules and regulations, the Selling Stockholder and any unaffiliated broker-dealer:

may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities;

must furnish each broker which offers shares of our common stock covered by the prospectus and accompanying prospectus that are a part of our registration statement with the number of copies of such prospectus and accompanying prospectus which are required by each broker; and

may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.

These restrictions may affect the marketability of our common stock by the Selling Stockholder and any unaffiliated broker-dealer.

We will pay the expenses incident to the registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of our shares of common stock covered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder. We estimate that our total expenses for the offering will be approximately $55,836.30 (excluding the Commitment Fee Shares).

The Selling Stockholder has represented to us that at no time prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement has the Selling Stockholder, its officers, its sole member, its affiliates, or any entity managed or controlled by the Selling Stockholder or its sole member, engaged in or effected, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for its own account or for the account of any of its affiliates, any short sale (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of our common stock or any hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to our common stock. The Selling Stockholder has agreed that during the term of the Purchase Agreement, none of the Selling Stockholder, its officers, its sole member, its affiliates, or any entity managed or controlled by the Selling Stockholder or its sole member, will enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any of the foregoing transactions for its own account or for the account of any other such person or entity.

We have advised the Selling Stockholder that it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the Selling Stockholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the securities offered by this prospectus.

This offering will terminate on the date that all shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus have been sold by the Selling Stockholder.

Our common stock trades on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ROI”.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 78.7502(1) of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (except an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person: (i) is not liable for a breach of fiduciary duties that involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

NRS Section 78.7502(2) further provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if such person: (i) is not liable for a breach of fiduciary duties that involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (1) and (2) of NRS Section 78.7502, as described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him or her against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense.

Article VI of the amended and restated bylaws of the Company provides that the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as now or hereafter in effect, indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the Company, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS Section 78.138; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

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

Item 17.

Undertakings

(a)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:

(1)

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

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 SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” filed as an exhibit to 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.

II-6

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

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)

That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.

(7)

That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes 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.

(8)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the undersigned pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the undersigned has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the undersigned of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the undersigned 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 undersigned will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

II-7

(b)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(c)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

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