PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS |
SUBJECT TO COMPLETION |
DATED SEPTEMBER 26, 2025 |
Up to 320,000 Shares of Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock
Up to 8,226,951 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the
Shares of Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock Sold Hereunder
We are offering up to 320,000 shares of our Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock") on a reasonable best efforts basis (and up to 8,226,951 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Common Stock"), which represents the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issuable from time to time upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and payment of dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock). The public offering price for each share of Preferred Stock is $25.00 (the "Offering Price"). The Offering Price was determined by the Company on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of Preferred Stock would trade if they were listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company. See "Risk Factors" for more information.
The conversion price of the Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Price") is expected to be set by us, with input from the placement agent at the time of pricing the offering and is expected to be based upon the closing price of our Common Stock immediately prior to such pricing but may be at a discount to the then current market price of our Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by dividing the (i) sum of the Offering Price and, to the extent that the Corporation elects to pay dividends in shares of Common Stock, all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price. Thus, if the Conversion Price is $1.00, each share of Preferred Stock, exclusive of dividends, is convertible into 25 shares of Common Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, at our election, we may either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round to the nearest whole share. If the Conversion Price is set lower, or it is adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provision discussed below, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion will increase. For example, if the Conversion Price is lowered to $0.50, each share of Preferred Stock that has not previously been converted, exclusive of dividends will be convertible into 50 shares of Common Stock.
The Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designation") for our Preferred Stock contains anti-dilution provisions, which provisions require the lowering of the Conversion Price on any unconverted Preferred Stock to the purchase price of future offerings by us (subject to certain exclusions), subject to a floor price of $[•] per share (the "Floor Price"). If in the future we issue securities for less than the Conversion Price of our Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the relevant Conversion Price of any unconverted Preferred Stock, which will result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issuable upon conversion, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our stockholders.
The Offering Price will be fixed for the duration of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to pursue the business goals outlined in this prospectus. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount in this offering, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill our objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. Also, any proceeds from the sale of securities offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. The offering will be terminated by October 27, 2025, and may not be extended. See "Risk Factors" for more information.

We have retained Dawson James Securities, Inc. to act as placement agent (the "Placement Agent" or "Dawson James") in connection with this offering and to use its "best efforts" to solicit offers to purchase the Preferred Stock. The Placement Agent is not purchasing or selling any of the Preferred Stock we are offering, and the Placement Agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of Preferred Stock. We have agreed to pay to the Placement Agent the Placement Agent fees set forth in the table below, which assumes that we sell all of the Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus. See "Plan of Distribution" beginning on page 28 of this prospectus for more information regarding these arrangements.
Our Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol "SGD." On September 24, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq was $1.41 per share. The recent market price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the actual market price at the time of the closing of this offering or the Conversion Price. There is no established public trading market for the Preferred Stock, and we do not expect such a market to develop. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Preferred Stock will be limited. In addition, we do not intend to list the Preferred Stock on Nasdaq, any other national securities exchange or any other trading system.
Investing in our securities involves risks. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading "Risk Factors" contained in this prospectus and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as described beginning on page 6 of this prospectus.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued under this prospectus or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

(1) The public offering price is $25.00 per share of Preferred Stock. The offering price was determined by the Company on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which Preferred Stock would trade if it was listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers, and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company.
(2) We will pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain offering-related expenses. We refer you to "Plan of Distribution" beginning on page 28 for additional information regarding compensation to be received by the Placement Agent.
(3) Assuming the maximum offering amount is sold in this offering.
(4) Because there is no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual public offering amount, placement agent fees, and proceeds to us, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering amounts set forth above. We estimate the total expenses of this offering payable by us, excluding the placement agent fees, will be approximately $355,000.
The Placement Agent expects to deliver the shares of Preferred Stock against payment to the investors in this offering on or about [•], 2025.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Words such as, but not limited to, "anticipate," "aim," "believe," "contemplate," "continue," "could," "design," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "predict," "poise," "project," "potential," "suggest," "should," "strategy," "target," "will," "would," and similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus and incorporated by reference into this prospectus, we caution you that these statements are based on our projections of the future that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, to differ. The section in this prospectus entitled "Risk Factors" and the sections in our periodic reports, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 31, 2025 entitled "Business," "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," as well as other sections in this prospectus and the documents or reports incorporated by reference into this prospectus, discuss some of the factors that could contribute to these differences.
Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of those risks as you read this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than as of the date of this prospectus, or that any information incorporated by reference into this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date of the document so incorporated by reference. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future. Thus, you should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.
If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materializes, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary materially from what we anticipate. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or individuals acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this Note. Before purchasing any securities, you should consider carefully all of the factors set forth or referred to in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference that could cause actual results to differ.
We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as our current plans, estimates and beliefs. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this document, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors" of this prospectus that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future

acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this prospectus and incorporated by reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary contains basic information about us and this offering. Because it is a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding to invest in our securities. Before you decide to invest in our securities, you should read this entire prospectus carefully and the documents incorporated by reference herein, including the information included under the heading titled "Risk Factors."
On October 8, 2024, we effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our then-outstanding Common Stock ("Stock Split"). All share and per share amounts set forth in this prospectus have been adjusted to reflect the Stock Split.
The Company
Safe and Green Development Corporation is a Delaware corporation, originally formed in 2021 under the name SGB Development Corp., to engage in real property development using purpose-built, prefabricated modules constructed from both wood and steel. From its inception through 2023, our operations primarily focused on the acquisition, entitlement, and development of residential properties in high-growth markets across the United States. These efforts included the direct acquisition of land, strategic investments in real estate entities, and joint venture partnerships targeting green, single-family and multifamily housing projects.
In 2023 and early 2024, we expanded our strategy by investing in real estate-related artificial intelligence ("AI") technologies and entering into additional joint ventures in the Southern Texas market aimed at developing sustainable single-family housing. We also announced plans to monetize our real estate holdings by selling properties where third-party appraisals indicated meaningful value appreciation, with proceeds to be reinvested into our operations or used to fund project-level or corporate activities.
In June 2025, we completed our acquisition of Resource Group US Holdings LLC ("Resource Group"), which marked a significant strategic shift in our core business. Resource Group, through its subsidiaries, is a vertically integrated, full-service operator in the engineered soils and organic recycling industry. Its operations center on the transformation of targeted organic green waste materials into environmentally friendly soil and mulch products. Resource Group also provides comprehensive green waste logistics and collection services through its owned fleet of high-capacity transportation equipment.
While Resource Group is expected to serve as our primary operational focus going forward, we will also continue to optimize and operate our legacy real estate assets and joint venture interests. In connection with this dual-track strategy, we are evaluating the most efficient path to manage our property portfolio while supporting the growth and operational scale of Resource Group.
Corporate Information
We were incorporated in Delaware on February 27, 2021. Our principal executive office is located at 100 Biscayne Blvd., Floor 12, Suite 1201, Miami, Florida 33132, and our phone number is (904) 496-0027. We maintain a website at www.sgdevco.com. The reference to our website is intended to be an inactive textual reference only. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not part of this prospectus.
In December 2022, Safe & Green Holdings Corp. ("SG Holdings"), the then owner of 100% of our issued and outstanding securities, announced its plan to separate SG DevCo and SG Holdings into two separate publicly traded companies (the "Separation"). To implement the Separation, on September 27, 2023 (the "Distribution Date"), SG Holdings, effected a pro rata distribution to SG Holdings' stockholders of approximately 30% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock (the "Distribution"). In connection with the Distribution, each SG Holdings stockholder received 0.930886 shares of our Common Stock for every five (5) shares of SG Holdings common stock held as of the close of business on September 8, 2023, the record date for the Distribution, as well as a cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares. Immediately after the Distribution, we were no longer a wholly owned subsidiary of SG Holdings and SG Holdings held approximately 70% of our issued and outstanding securities. On September 28, 2023, our Common Stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "SGD."

THE OFFERING
The following summary contains basic information about this offering. The summary is not intended to be complete. You should read the full text and more specific details contained elsewhere in this prospectus.
Securities offered by us: |
Up to 320,000 shares of our Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock on a reasonable best efforts basis (and up to 8,226,951 shares of Common Stock issuable from time to time upon conversion of the Preferred Stock at an assumed Conversion Price of $1.41, which was the last reported sales price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on September 24, 2025, and payment of dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock). Each share of Preferred Stock is being offered at an Offering Price of $25.00. The Offering Price was determined by the Company on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of Preferred Stock would trade if they were listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company. See "Risk Factors" for more information. Altogether we are registering 8,226,951 shares of Common Stock, which represents the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issuable from time to time upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and payment of dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock after giving effect to certain anti-dilution provisions contained in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock. For more information regarding the Preferred Stock, you should carefully read the section titled "Description of Securities to be Registered" in this prospectus. |

Conversion |
The Stated Value of each share of our Preferred Stock is $25.00. Our Preferred Stock, based on its Stated Value, is convertible into shares of our Common Stock at the Conversion Price, subject to adjustment as provided in the Certificate of Designation, at any time at the option of the holder prior to [•], 2025 (the fifth anniversary of the closing of the offering), at which time all shares of outstanding Preferred Stock shall automatically and without any further action by the holder be converted into shares of our Common Stock at the then effective Conversion Price, provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting Preferred Stock into shares of our Common Stock if, as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our Common Stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after such notice to us. |
|
The Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, as discussed further below, is expected to be set by us, with input from the Placement Agent, at the time of pricing the offering and is expected to be based upon the closing price of our Common Stock immediately prior to such pricing but may be at a discount to the then current market price of our Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by dividing the (i) sum of the Offering Price and, to the extent that the Corporation elects to pay dividends in shares of Common Stock, all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price. Thus, if the Conversion Price is $1.00, each share of Preferred Stock, exclusive of dividends, is convertible into 25 shares of Common Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, at our election, we may either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round to the nearest whole share. If the Conversion Price is set lower, or it is adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provision discussed below, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion will increase. For example, if the Conversion Price is lowered to $0.50, each share of Preferred Stock that has not previously been converted, exclusive of dividends, will be convertible into 50 shares of Common Stock. The Certificate of Designation contains anti-dilution provisions, which provisions require the lowering of the Conversion Price on any unconverted Preferred Stock to the purchase price of future offerings by us (subject to certain exclusions), subject to a floor price of $[•] per share. Such floor price shall equal 50% of the "Minimum Price" (as such term is defined in Rule 5635 of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the Placement Agent Agreement (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar events) or, in any case, such lower amount as permitted, from time to time, by Nasdaq. If in the future we issue securities for less than the Conversion Price of our Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the relevant Conversion Price of any unconverted Preferred Stock, which will result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issuable upon conversion, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our stockholders. See "Risk Factors" for additional information. |

Table of Contents
Liquidation preference |
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of our Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive the amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would be entitled to receive with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock if such shares had been converted to Common Stock immediately prior to such event (without giving effect for such purposes to any beneficial ownership limitation), subject to the preferential rights of holders of any class or series of our capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Preferred Stock as to distributions of assets upon such event, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. |
|
Dividends |
The holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate per share of 9% per annum of the Stated Value per share until the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock. The dividends become payable at our option, in either cash, out of any funds legally available for such purpose, or in shares of Common Stock, (i) upon any conversion of the Preferred Stock, (ii) on each such other date as our board of directors may determine, (iii) upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and (iv) upon occurrence of a fundamental transaction, including any merger or consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, exchange or conversion of all of our Common Stock by tender offer, exchange offer or reclassification; provided, however, that if Preferred Stock is converted into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the closing of the offering, the holder will also receive a make-whole payment in an amount equal to all of the dividends that, but for the early conversion, would have otherwise accrued on the applicable shares of Preferred Stock being converted for the period commencing on the conversion date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock, less the amount of all prior dividends paid on such converted Preferred Stock before the date of conversion. Make-whole payments are payable at our option in either cash, out of funds legally available for such purpose, or in shares of Common Stock. With respect to any dividends and make-whole payments paid in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to a holder of Preferred Stock will be an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the amount of the dividend payable to such holder divided by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect. |
|
Voting rights |
The holders of the Preferred Stock have no voting rights, except as required by law. |
|
Reasonable Best Efforts Offering |
We have agreed to issue and sell the securities offered hereby to the purchasers through the Placement Agent. The Placement Agent is not required to buy or sell any specific number or dollar amount of the securities offered hereby, but will use their reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus. See "Plan of Distribution" beginning on page 28 of this prospectus. |
|
Use of proceeds |
We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $7.045 million, after deducting the Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us (assuming the sale of all shares of Preferred Stock covered by this prospectus). However, this is a reasonable best efforts offering with no minimum number of shares of Preferred Stock or amount of proceeds as a condition to closing, and we may not sell all or any of the Preferred Stock offered pursuant to this prospectus; as a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds. We currently intend to use the |

net proceeds from this offering for: (i) the repayment of certain convertible debentures approximately in the amount of $850,000; (ii) the repayment a convertible debenture in the amount of $198,375; (iii) the purchase of additional equipment; (iv) for site improvements on our property in Myakka, FL; (v) the repayment of a $2,200,000 loan (the "BCV Loan") we received pursuant to the Loan Agreement (the "BCV Loan Agreement") with a Luxembourg-based specialized investment fund, BCV S&G DevCorp ("BCV S&G") (in connection with the repayment of which, the Company expects to renew and extend the BCV Loan); and (vi) for working capital and general corporate purposes. See "Use of Proceeds" for additional information, including changes to the use of proceeds set forth above if we sell less than the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock offered hereby. |
||
Lock-Up |
Our directors and officers have agreed with the Placement Agent, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell, transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Common Stock for a period of 90 days after the completion of this offering. See "Plan of Distribution" for more information. |

RISK FACTORS
Our business, results of operations and financial condition and the industry in which we operate are subject to various risks. Accordingly, investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. This prospectus does not describe all of those risks. You should consider the risk factors described in this prospectus below, as well as those described under the caption "Risk Factors" in the documents incorporated by reference herein, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission together with the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.
We have described below and in the documents incorporated by reference herein the most significant risk factors applicable to us, but they do not constitute all of the risks that may be applicable to us. New risks may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all potential risks or to assess the likely impact of all risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including the risks described below. See the section titled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."
Risks Related to this Offering
We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.
We will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our Common Stock. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, cause the price of our shares of Common Stock to decline and delay the development of our product candidates. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.
This is a reasonable best efforts offering, with no minimum number of shares of Preferred Stock required to be sold, we may sell fewer than all of the Preferred Stock offered hereby and we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our business plans.
The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Preferred Stock in this offering. The Placement Agent has no obligation to buy any of the Preferred Stock from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the Preferred Stock. There is no required minimum number of shares of Preferred Stock that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering, and there can be no assurance that the offering contemplated hereby will ultimately be consummated. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing of this offering, the actual offering amount is not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amount set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. We may sell fewer than all of the Preferred Stock offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short-term and may need to raise additional funds, which may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us.
Because there is no minimum required for the offering to close, investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell a number of shares of Preferred Stock sufficient to pursue the business goals outlined in this prospectus.
We have not specified a minimum offering amount nor have or will we establish an escrow account in connection with this offering. Because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill our objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. Further, because there is no escrow account in operation and no minimum investment amount, any proceeds from the sale of Preferred Stock offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. Investor funds will not be returned under any circumstances whether during or after the offering.

If you purchase the Preferred Stock sold in this offering and assuming its conversion into shares of our Common Stock, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in your investment.
Since the Conversion Price per share of our Preferred Stock being offered in this offering exceeds the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock outstanding prior to this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution with respect to the net tangible book value of the Common Stock underlying your Preferred Stock you purchase in this offering, assuming conversion of the Preferred Stock into shares of our Common Stock. After giving effect to (i) the sale of 320,000 shares of Preferred Stock issued by us at an assumed public offering price of $25 per share of Preferred Stock and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025 would have been approximately $(10.6) million, or $(0.81) per share (assuming conversion of 320,000 shares of Preferred Stock into 8,226,951 shares of Common Stock, including the payment of all dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock at an assumed Conversion Price of $1.41 per share and the Stated Value per share of $25). This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $2.77 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $2.22 per share to new investors participating in this offering, If any outstanding options or warrants are exercised, you could experience further dilution. See the section entitled "Dilution" on page 12 below for a more detailed illustration of the dilution you will incur if you participate in this offering.
There may be future sales of our securities or other dilution of our equity, which may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
The issuance of securities in future offerings may cause further dilution to our stockholders, including investors in this offering. We may not be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering. You will also incur dilution upon the conversion of any convertible securities, upon the exercise of any outstanding stock options, warrants or upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock under our stock incentive programs. In addition, any future sales of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or the availability of those shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.
There is no public market for the shares of Preferred Stock being offered by us in this offering.
There is no established public trading market for the shares of Preferred Stock that are being offered as part of this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the shares of Preferred Stock on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity of the shares of Preferred Stock will be limited.
The shares of Preferred Stock are speculative in nature.
Following this offering, the market value of the shares of our Common Stock is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock will equal or exceed the Conversion Price. In the event the price of our Common Stock does not exceed the Conversion Price during a given period, the shares of Preferred Stock may only have value to the extent the holder thereof has a right to receive dividends. There is no established public trading market for shares of Preferred Stock being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the shares of Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity of the shares of Preferred Stock will be limited.
Holders of the Preferred Stock offered hereby will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise their shares of Preferred Stock and acquire our Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in the Preferred Stock.
Until holders of the Preferred Stock acquire shares of our Common Stock upon conversion thereof, such holders will have no rights with respect to the shares of our Common Stock underlying such Preferred Stock. Upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the conversion date.

Aspects of the tax treatment of the Preferred Stock may be uncertain.
The tax treatment of the Preferred Stock is uncertain and may vary depending upon whether you are an individual or a legal entity and whether or not you are domiciled in the United States. In the event you are a non-U.S. investor, you should consult your tax advisors as to the consequences, under the tax laws of the country where you are resident for tax purposes, of acquiring, holding and disposing of the Preferred Stock.
This offering may cause the trading price of our Common Stock to decrease.
The shares of Common Stock we propose to issue upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock issued in this offering may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Common Stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering.
If the price of the Common Stock fluctuates significantly, your investment could lose value.
Although the Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq, we cannot assure you that an active public market will continue for the Common Stock. If an active public market for the Common Stock does not continue, the trading price and liquidity of the Common Stock will be materially and adversely affected. If there is a thin trading market or "float" for our stock, the market price for the Common Stock may fluctuate significantly more than the stock market as a whole. Without a large float, the Common Stock would be less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership and, as a result, the trading prices of the Common Stock may be more volatile. In addition, in the absence of an active public trading market, investors may be unable to liquidate their investment in us. Furthermore, the stock market is subject to significant price and volume fluctuations, and the price of the Common Stock could fluctuate widely in response to several factors, including:
• our quarterly or annual operating results;
• changes in our earnings estimates;
• investment recommendations by securities analysts following our business or our industry;
• additions or departures of key personnel;
• our failure to achieve operating results consistent with securities analysts' projections; and
• changes in industry, general market or economic conditions.
The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in recent years that have significantly affected the quoted prices of the securities of many companies, including companies in our industry. The changes often appear to occur without regard to specific operating performance. The price of the Common Stock could fluctuate based upon factors that have little or nothing to do with our company and these fluctuations could materially reduce our stock price.
The Certificate of Designation for our Preferred Stock contains anti-dilution provisions that may result in the reduction of the Conversion Price for the Preferred Stock in the future. This feature may result in additional shares of Common Stock being issued upon conversion.
The Certificate of Designation for our Preferred Stock contains anti-dilution provisions, which provisions require the lowering of the Conversion Price on any unconverted Preferred Stock to the purchase price of future offerings by us (subject to certain exclusions), subject to the Floor Price. If in the future we issue securities for less than the Conversion Price of our Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the relevant Conversion Price of any unconverted Preferred Stock, which will result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issuable upon conversion, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our stockholders. The potential for such Conversion Price adjustments may depress the price of our Common Stock regardless of our business performance, and, as a result, we may find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital while our Preferred Stock is outstanding.

We do not intend to pay dividends on the Common Stock, so any returns with respect to Common Stock received upon conversion of the Preferred Stock will be limited to increases, if any, in our stock's value. Your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation, if any, in the price of the Common Stock.
We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other factors, our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Any return to stockholders will therefore be limited to the appreciation in the value of their stock, if any.
The Offering Price in this offering was determined by us on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of Preferred Stock would trade if they were listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers.
The Offering Price per share of Preferred Stock was determined by us on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of Preferred Stock would trade if they were listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company. Furthermore, while the Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock is expected to be set by us, with input from the Placement Agent, at the time of pricing the offering and is expected to be based upon the closing price of our Common Stock immediately prior to such pricing, it may be at a discount to the then current market price of our Common Stock. There is no established public trading market for the Preferred Stock, and we do not expect a market to develop, but even if a public trading market develops for the Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the value of the Preferred Stock will attain market values commensurate with the Offering Price.
Except as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock, holders of shares of Preferred Stock will have no rights as a common stockholder until they acquire shares of the Common Stock.
Except as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock, the shares of Preferred Stock offered hereby do not confer any rights of Common Stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock. Until holders of the shares of Preferred Stock acquire shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock, holders of shares of Preferred Stock will have no rights with respect to our shares of Common Stock underlying such shares of Preferred Stock.
Provisions of the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.
In addition to the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, certain provisions of the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus could make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. The Certificate of Designation prohibits us from engaging in certain transactions constituting "fundamental transactions" unless, among other things, the surviving entity assumes our obligations under the Preferred Stock. These and other provisions of the Certificate of Designation could prevent or deter a third party from acquiring us even where the acquisition could be beneficial to you.
We are seeking stockholder approval, at our 2025 annual meeting, to (i) effect a reverse stock split, (ii) increase our authorized shares of Common Stock, (iii) increase the number of shares that can be issued as awards under our 2023 Plan, and (iv) issue an aggregate of 9,041,182 shares of Common Stock to the prior members of Resource Group. All of such proposals would cause additional shares of Common Stock to be available for issuance, which could result in additional dilution to our stockholders. An increase in authorized shares or a reverse stock split could also have an anti-takeover effect.
At our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, currently scheduled to be held on September 29, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Meeting"), we intend to seek stockholder approval of (i) a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-5 to 1-for-20 (the "Reverse Stock Split Proposal"), (ii) an increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares (the "Authorized Increase Proposal"), (iii) an increase in the number of shares that can be issued as awards under our 2023 Plan by 1,200,000 shares (the "2023 Plan Amendment Proposal"), and (iv) a proposal to issue an aggregate of 9,041,182 shares of Common Stock to the prior members of Resource Group (the "Resource

Group Proposal"). The Authorized Increase Proposal, the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, the 2023 Plan Amendment Proposal and the Resource Group Proposal are each described in the definitive proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting, which was filed with the SEC on September 9, 2025. Each of these proposals, if approved, could result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Even if the Authorized Increase Proposal and the Reverse Stock Split Proposal are approved by our stockholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting, the filing of an amendment(s) to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the "amended and restated certificate of incorporation"), to effect an increase in the number of authorized shares and/or to effect a reverse stock split, remains at the discretion of the Board of Directors, who has the authority to abandon any such amendment(s).
On October 8, 2024, we effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our then-outstanding Common Stock. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv) states that any listed company that fails to meet the minimum bid price requirement and has effected a reverse stock split over the prior one-year period, or has effected one or more reverse stock splits over the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one, will not be eligible for an automatic 180-day grace compliance period and the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department is obligated to immediately issue a delisting determination. Therefore, if we were to fall out of compliance with the minimum bid price requirement prior to October 8, 2025, we would not be able to effect a reverse stock split and would immediately be issued a delisting determination. Further, the Nasdaq rule provides that a company will not be considered to have regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement if the company takes an action to achieve compliance (such as a reverse split) and that action results in the Company's security falling below the numeric threshold for another listing requirement. If we seek to implement a reverse stock split in order to remain listed on Nasdaq, we will be restricted to effecting such stock split at a ratio of less than 1-for-12.5 in order to avoid effecting reverse stock splits over a two-year period with a cumulative ration of 250 shares or more to one. Further, the announcement or implementation of a reverse stock split could negatively affect the price of our Common Stock.
The increase in authorized shares and/or the reverse stock split, if effected, will result in a relative increase in the number of authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock vis-à-vis the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and, could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, although this is not the purpose or intent of the Board. Either of these actions could potentially deter takeovers, including takeovers that the Board has determined are not in the best interest of our stockholders, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover more difficult. For example, we could issue additional shares so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control without our agreement. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with our management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove our current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. The increase in the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock therefore may have the effect of discouraging unsolicited takeover attempts. By potentially discouraging initiation of any such unsolicited takeover attempts, the increase in authorized shares and/or reverse stock split may limit the opportunity for our stockholders to dispose of their shares at the higher price generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $7.0 million (assuming we sell the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock offered pursuant to this prospectus), after deducting Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. However, because this is a reasonable best efforts offering with no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds as a condition to closing, the actual offering amount, Placement Agent fees, and net proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and we may not sell all or any of the Preferred Stock we are offering. As a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds. We estimate that our net proceeds from the sale of 75%, 50%, and 25% of the Preferred Stock offered in this offering would be approximately $5.2 million, $3.3 million, and $1.5 million, respectively, after deducting the estimated Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
Assuming that we sell the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock offered pursuant to this prospectus, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for: (i) the repayment of first, second and third tranche convertible debentures that were originally issued to Arena Investors on August 12, 2024, October 25, 2024 and April 4, 2025 respectively, in the aggregate amount of approximately $850,000 plus interest, each of such debentures matures eighteen months from its respective dates of issuance, bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum payable on the maturity date and is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a variable conversion rate that equals the higher of: (a) 92.5% of the lowest 10 Day VWAP preceding the date of conversion and (b) the floor price of $0.90, the proceeds of which debentures were used for working capital; (ii) the repayment of the Peak One Debenture issued in June 2024 in the amount of $198,375 plus interest, which matures twelve months from the date of issuance and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and is convertible at the market on March 23, 2026, the proceeds of such debenture were used for working capital; (iii) approximately $1,000,000 for the purchase of additional equipment; (iv) approximately $1,750,000 for site improvements on our property in Myakka, FL; (v) the repayment a $2,200,000 loan we received from BCV S&G pursuant to BCV Loan Agreement; and (vi) working capital and general corporate purposes. We may also temporarily invest the net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities.
In connection with the repayment of the BCV Loan, we expect that the BCV Loan will be renewed and extended for eighteen (18) additional months. The BCV Loan accrues interest at a rate of 14% per annum, has a maturity date of December 1, 2025 and may be repaid at any time following the twelve-month anniversary of its issue date, or prior to such anniversary provided that all interest that would have been due on such twelve-month anniversary is paid.
If less than the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock are sold, the Corporation intends to adjust its use of proceeds as follows: If 75% of the shares of Preferred Stock offered in this offering are sold (resulting in net proceeds of approximately $5.2 million), we intend to repay approximately $2,200,000 of the amount due pursuant to the BCV Loan since we expect the loan to be extended. If 50% of the shares of Preferred Stock offered in this offering are sold (resulting in net proceeds of approximately $3.3 million), we intend to only repay approximately $1,200,000 of the BCV Loan since we expect the loan to be extended and expect to forego the improvements on our Florida property. If 25% of the shares of Preferred Stock offered in this offering are sold (resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.5 million), we do not intend to repay any portion of the BCV Loan and will forego the improvements on our Florida property and the planned equipment purchases.
The amounts and timing of any expenditures will vary depending on the amount of cash generated by our operations, and the rate of growth, if any, of our business, and our plans and business conditions. The foregoing represents our intentions as of the date of this prospectus based upon our current plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds of the offering. However, our management will have significant flexibility and discretion in the timing and application of the net proceeds of the offering. Unforeseen events or changed business conditions may result in application of the proceeds of the offering in a manner other than as described in this prospectus.
To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from the offering are not immediately applied for the above purposes, we plan to invest the net proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DILUTION
Purchasers of the shares of Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus who convert such shares of Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of Common Stock they receive upon conversion. Net tangible book value per share represents the amount of total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2025. Our historical net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025, was approximately $(19.3) million, or $(6.40) per share of Common Stock, based upon 3,019,340 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of that date.
Our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025, was approximately $(17.6) million, or $(3.63) per share of Common Stock, after taking into account (i) the issuance of 309,692 shares of Common Stock, together with pre-funded warrants exercisable for 173,681 shares of Common Stock and five-year warrants to purchase 483,372 shares of Common Stock for aggregate net proceeds of $530,422; (ii) in consideration for a waiver, the issuance of 108,548 shares of Common Stock; (iii) the issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock to Dawson James as a financial advisory fee in connection with a private placement; (iv) the issuance of 235,852 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a warrant and our receipt of $214,483 in proceeds; and (v) the issuance of 1,031,634 shares in connection with the conversion of certain outstanding debentures in the principal amount of $953,157 and a corresponding reduction in liabilities in the same amount.
After giving effect to the pro forma adjustments set forth above and the sale by us in this offering of 320,000 shares of our Preferred Stock in this offering at a public offering price of $25 per share and after deducting the Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025, would have been approximately $(10.6) million, or approximately $(0.82) per share (assuming conversion of 320,000 shares of Preferred Stock into 5,673,759 shares of Common Stock, payment of all dividends accrued on the Preferred Stock in an aggregate of 2,553,192 shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock at the assumed Conversion Price of $1.41 (which is the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on September 24, 2025) and a stated value per share of $25. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of approximately $2.77 per share of Common Stock to our existing security holders and an immediate dilution in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $2.22 per share to investors of our securities in this offering, as illustrated by the following table:

Each $0.25 increase (decrease) in the assumed Conversion Price of $1.41 per share (which is the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on September 24, 2025) would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering, assuming the immediate conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock issued in this offering at the assumed Conversion Price, by approximately $0.10 per share, and would increase (decrease) the dilution to new investors by approximately $0.34 per share, assuming the number of shares of Preferred Stock offered, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, after deducting Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
Each 40,000 increase (decrease) in the number of shares of Preferred Stock offered by us in this offering would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering, assuming the immediate conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock issued in this offering at the assumed Conversion Price, by approximately $0.13 per share, and the increase (decrease) the dilution to new investors by approximately $0.13 per share, assuming that the Conversion Price remains at $1.41 (which is the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on September 24, 2025), and after deducting Placement Agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

If we sell only 50% of the Preferred Stock offered in this offering (160,000 shares), at an assumed public offering price of $1.41 per share (which is the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on September 24, 2025), assuming the immediate conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock issued in this offering at the assumed Conversion Price and after deducting the estimated Placement Agent fees and the estimated expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025 would have been approximately $(14.3) million, or $(1.59) per share of Common Stock. This represents an immediate increase in net book value of $2.04 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $3.00 per share to new investors participating in this offering.
The table and discussion above are based on 3,019,340 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2025 and excludes as of that date:
• 944,420 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding at a weighted average exercise price of $0.9094 per share;
• 1,763,356 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible debentures;
• 1,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock; and
• 118,859 shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance under the 2023 Plan.
To the extent that any outstanding warrants, options or other convertible securities are exercised or converted, as applicable, new options or restricted stock units are issued under our equity incentive plans, or we otherwise issue additional shares of Common Stock in the future, at a price less than the public offering price, there will be further dilution to the investors. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and we do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We expect to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future determination to pay dividends, if any, on our Common Stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other factors, the terms of any outstanding preferred stock, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and contractual restrictions.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK
The following description of our capital stock and the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and our amended and restated bylaws are summaries and are qualified by reference to the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws. We have filed copies of these documents with the SEC as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Common Stock
Our authorized capital stock currently consists of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share. At our 2025 Annual Meeting, we are seeking stockholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 500,000,000 shares, however, even if the Authorized Increase Proposal is approved by our stockholders, the filing of an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect such increase remains at the discretion of our Board, who may abandon such amendment. Holders of shares of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Except as otherwise provided in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or as required by law, all matters to be voted on by our stockholders, other than matters relating to the election and removal of directors and the amendment of our amended and restated bylaws, must be approved by a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. The holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
Holders of shares of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding preferred stock.
Upon our dissolution or liquidation, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and subject to any rights of preferred stockholders, the holders of shares of our Common Stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution.
Holders of shares of our Common Stock do not have preemptive, subscription, redemption, or conversion rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock.
Preferred Stock
Our Board of Directors has the authority, without action by our stockholders, to designate and issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series or classes and to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of each series or class, which may be greater than the rights of our Common Stock. We currently have Series A Preferred Stock designated and outstanding. It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of any additional classes of preferred stock upon the rights of holders of our Common Stock until our Board of Directors determines the specific rights of the holders of the preferred stock. However, the effects might include:
• restricting dividends on our Common Stock;
• diluting the voting power of our Common Stock;
• impairing liquidation rights of our Common Stock; or
• delaying or preventing a change in control of us without further action by our stockholders.
The Board of Directors' authority to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire control of our company and could discourage such attempt. We have no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, other than the shares of Preferred Stock we are offering pursuant to this prospectus.

Table of Contents
Series A Preferred Stock
Our Board has designated 1,500,000 shares of our preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock, all of which are issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. The following description of the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Certificate of Designation") does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Series A Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein.
Subject to, and following, the approval by our stockholders of the issuance of the Common Stock upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into six fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.
The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to their shares.
In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive $4.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, before any amount is paid or any assets distributed to holders of shares of the Company ranking junior as to the return of capital to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock.
Except as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock has no voting rights; provided, however, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, we will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Series A Certificate of Designation.
Forum Selection
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provides that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court of the State of Delaware) is the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company to the Company or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws or as to which the Delaware General Corporation Law confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; or (iv) any action asserting a claim against us or any director, officer or employee of the Company that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws also provide that the federal district courts of the United States of America is the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action against under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act. Nothing in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws will preclude stockholders that assert claims under the Exchange Act from bringing such claims in state or federal court, subject to applicable law.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that may delay, defer, or discourage another party from acquiring control of us. We expect that these provisions, which are summarized below, will discourage coercive takeover practices or inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our Board of Directors, which we believe may result in an improvement of the terms of any such acquisition in favor of our stockholders. However, they will also give our Board of Directors the power to discourage acquisitions that some stockholders may favor.
Section 203 of the DGCL
We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a "business combination" with any "interested stockholder" for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder, unless the interested stockholder attained such
16
Table of Contents
status with the approval of our Board of Directors or unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A "business combination" includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the "interested stockholder" and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an "interested stockholder" is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
Blank Check Preferred Stock
Our Board of Directors has the right to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the designations, rights, preferences of such preferred stock without stockholder approval. As a result, our Board of Directors could, without stockholder approval, authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting, dividend, redemption, liquidation, sinking fund, conversion and other rights that could proportionately reduce, minimize or otherwise adversely affect the voting power and other rights of holders of the Company's capital stock or that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.
Classified Board of Directors
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation divides our Board of Directors into three classes serving three-year terms, with one class being elected each year by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote on the election.
Removal of Directors
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that, (i) subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock or any limitation imposed by law, the Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office at any time with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors; and (ii) subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock, neither the Board of Directors nor any individual director may be removed without cause.
Board Vacancies
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, provide that any vacancy on our Board of Directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our Board of Directors, may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of our directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors.
Stockholder Action by Written Consent
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws prohibit stockholders from acting by written consent. Accordingly, stockholder action must take place at an annual or a special meeting of the Company's stockholders.
Special Meetings of Stockholders
Our amended and restated bylaws also provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders may only be called by our Board of Directors, Chairman of the Board of Directors or our Chief Executive Officer.
Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations
Stockholders wishing to nominate persons for election to our Board of Directors or to propose any business to be considered by our stockholders at an annual meeting must comply with certain advance notice and other requirements which are set forth in our amended and restated bylaws. Likewise, if our Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at a special meeting of stockholders, stockholders wishing to nominate persons for election to our Board of Directors at such special meeting must comply with certain advance notice and other requirements which are set forth in our amended and restated bylaws.
17
Table of Contents
Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
The DGCL provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend a corporation's certificate of incorporation or bylaws, unless a corporation's certificate of incorporation or bylaws, as the case may be, requires a greater percentage. Our amended and restated bylaws may be amended or repealed by a majority vote of our Board of Directors or by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the votes which all our stockholders would be eligible to cast in an election of directors.
Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
As permitted by Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director or officer, as applicable, except to the extent such an exemption from liability thereof is not permitted under the DGCL. The effect of these provisions are to restrict our rights and the rights of our stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director or officer for breach of fiduciary duties as a director or officer, subject to certain exceptions in which case the director or officer would be personally liable. An officer may not be exculpated for any action brought by or in the right of the corporation. A director may not be exculpated for improper distributions to stockholders. Further, pursuant to Delaware law, a director or officer may not be exculpated for:
• any breach of his duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
• acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; and
• any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit.
These limitations of liability will not apply to liabilities arising under the federal or state securities laws and do not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.
In addition, our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, and may indemnify other officers, employees and other agents. Our amended and restated bylaws also provide that we are obligated to advance expenses incurred by a director or executive officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding. We entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law. These agreements, among other things, require us to indemnify our directors and officers for expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such directors or officers or on his or her behalf in connection with any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of our directors or officers, or any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request provided that such person follows the procedures for determining entitlement to indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in the indemnification agreement. We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Dissenters' Rights of Appraisal and Payment
Under the DGCL, with certain exceptions, our stockholders will have appraisal rights in connection with a merger or consolidation of SG DevCo. Pursuant to the DGCL, stockholders who properly request and perfect appraisal rights in connection with such merger or consolidation will have the right to receive payment of the fair value of their shares as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery.

Stockholders' Derivative Actions
Under the DGCL, any of our stockholders may bring an action in our name to procure a judgment in our favor, also known as a derivative action, provided that the stockholder bringing the action is a holder of our shares at the time of the transaction to which the action relates or such stockholder's stock thereafter devolved by operation of law.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED
We are offering up to 320,000 shares of our Preferred Stock. We are also registering the shares of Common Stock issuable from time to time upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock offered hereby.
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Being Issued in this Offering
The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Preferred Stock offered in this offering is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the terms and provisions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock, which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
Conversion into Shares of Common Stock
Our Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our Common Stock (subject to the beneficial ownership limitations as provided in the Certificate of Designation), based upon the Conversion Price per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in the Certificate of Designation and discussed further below, at any time at the option of the holder prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, at which time all shares of outstanding Preferred Stock shall automatically and without any further action by the holder be converted into shares of our Common Stock at the then effective Conversion Price, provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting Preferred Stock into shares of our Common Stock if, as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our Common Stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after such notice to us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Price be less than the Floor Price as further described below under the heading "Anti-Dilution."
The Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, as discussed further below, is expected to be set by us, with input from the Placement Agent, at the time of pricing the offering and is expected to be based upon the closing price of our Common Stock immediately prior to such pricing but may be at a discount to the then current market price of our Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by dividing the (i) sum of the Offering Price and, to the extent that the Corporation elects to pay dividends in shares of Common Stock, all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price Thus, if the Conversion Price is $1.00, each share of Preferred Stock, exclusive of dividends, is convertible into 25 shares of Common Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, at our election, we may either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round to the nearest whole share. If the Conversion Price is set lower, or it is adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provision discussed below, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion will increase. For example, if the Conversion Price is lowered to $0.50, each share of Preferred Stock that has not previously been converted, exclusive of dividends, we be convertible into 50 shares of Common Stock.
Anti-Dilution Provisions
The Certificate of Designation for our Preferred Stock contains anti-dilution provisions, which provisions require the lowering of the Conversion Price on any unconverted Preferred Stock to the purchase price of future offerings by us (subject to certain exclusions), subject to the Floor Price. If in the future we issue securities for less than the Conversion Price of our Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the relevant Conversion Price of any unconverted Preferred Stock, which will result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issuable upon conversion, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our stockholders. More specifically, except in connection with certain exempt issuances stipulated in the Certificate of Designation, the Certificate of Designation stipulates that if, at any time while the Preferred Stock is outstanding, we sell or grant any option to purchase or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or any securities which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents") at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock (such lower price, the "Base Conversion Price") then the Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock then outstanding automatically will be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price at the time such Common Stock or Common Stock
20
Table of Contents
Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Price be less than the Floor Price, which shall equal [•]. The Floor Price shall equal 50% of the "Minimum Price" (as such term is defined in Rule 5635 of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the Underwriting Agreement (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar events) or, in any case, such lower amount as permitted, from time to time, by Nasdaq. Additionally, in the event that the conversion price has been adjusted pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, and the Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) that triggered such adjustment does not occur, is not consummated, is unwound, or is cancelled after the fact for any reason whatsoever, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price in effect prior to the such Dilutive Issuance.
If we do not have sufficient available shares for any Preferred Stock conversions, we will be required to increase our authorized shares, which will require shareholder approval, which may not be possible and will be time consuming and expensive. The potential for such Conversion Price adjustments may depress the price of our Common Stock regardless of our business performance, and, as a result, we may find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital while our Preferred Stock is outstanding. See "Risk Factors" for additional information.
Dividends
The holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate per share of 9% per annum of the $25.00 Stated Value per share until the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the Preferred stock. The dividends become, payable at our option, in either cash, out of any funds legally available for such purpose, or in shares of Common Stock (i) upon any conversion of the Preferred Stock, (ii) on each such other date as our board of directors may determine, (iii) upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and (iv) upon occurrence of a fundamental transaction, including any merger or consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, exchange or conversion of all of our Common Stock by tender offer, exchange offer or reclassification; provided, however, that if Preferred Stock is converted into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the closing of the offering, the holder will also receive a make-whole payment in an amount equal to all of the dividends that, but for the early conversion, would have otherwise accrued on the applicable shares of Preferred Stock being converted for the period commencing on the conversion date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date, less the amount of all prior dividends paid on such converted Preferred Stock before the date of conversion. Make-whole payments are payable at our option in either cash, out of any funds legally available for such purpose, or in shares of our Common Stock.
With respect to any dividend payments and make-whole payments paid in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to a holder of Preferred Stock will be an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the amount of the dividend payable to such holder divided by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect, provided that the Conversion Price shall not be less than the Floor Price.
Liquidation
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of our Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive the amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would be entitled to receive with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock if such shares had been converted to Common Stock immediately prior to such event (without giving effect for such purposes to the 4.99% or 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation, as applicable) subject to the preferential rights of holders of any class or series of our capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Preferred Stock as to distributions of assets upon such event, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.
Voting Rights
The holders of the Preferred Stock have no voting rights, except as required by law.
Listing
The Preferred Stock will not be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other exchange or trading market. We do not plan on making an application to list the Preferred Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized trading system. The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol "SGD."

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a general summary of material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition of shares of Preferred Stock (the "Shares") in the offering and the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of shares of our common stock issuable as a distribution with respect to the Shares or upon conversion of the Shares (such as common stock, the "Common Stock").
Scope of this Summary
This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares and Common Stock. Except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such holder. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any particular holder. Each holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares and Common Stock.
No legal opinion from U.S. legal counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares and Common Stock. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary.
Authorities
This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations, published rulings of the IRS, published administrative positions of the IRS, and U.S. court decisions that are applicable and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this prospectus. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive basis.
U.S. Holders
As used in this summary, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Shares acquired pursuant to this prospectus and a beneficial owner of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of the Shares or acquired as a distribution with respect to the Shares that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.;
• a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) organized under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Colombia;
• an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
• a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the U.S. and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
Non-U.S. Holders
The term "Non-U.S. Holder" means any beneficial owner of Shares acquired pursuant to this prospectus and a beneficial owner of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of the Shares or acquired as a distribution with respect to the Shares that is not a U.S. Holder.
Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules
This summary deals only with persons or entities who acquire Shares in the offering and who hold Shares or Common Stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes). This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be applicable to
23
Table of Contents
holders in light of their particular circumstances or to holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as (without limitation): banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions; dealers or traders in securities, commodities or foreign currencies; regulated investment companies; U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.; persons holding Shares or Common Stock as part of a straddle, appreciated financial position, synthetic security, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated investment; persons holding Shares or Common Stock as a result of a constructive sale; entities that acquire Shares or Common Stock that are treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and partners in such partnerships; real estate investment trusts; U.S. Holders that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; holders that acquired Shares or Common Stock in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as consideration for services; or holders that are "controlled foreign corporations" or "passive foreign investment companies." Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares and Common Stock.
If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Shares or Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such entity and the partners (or other owners) of such entity generally will depend on the activities of the entity and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such owner or entity. Partners (or other owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as "pass-through" entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Shares or Common Stock.
Tax Consequences Not Addressed
This summary does not address the U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. federal alternative minimum tax, or non-U.S. tax consequences to holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Shares and Common Stock. Each holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. federal alternative minimum tax, and non-U.S. tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Shares and Common Stock.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders of the Acquisition, Ownership and Disposition of Shares and Common Stock
Distributions
Cash distributions made on Shares and Common Stock generally will be included in a U.S. Holder's income as ordinary dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (determined under U.S. federal income tax principles) as of the end of our taxable year in which the distribution occurs. To the extent those distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital and will first reduce a U.S. Holder's basis in Shares or Common Stock, but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain from the sale of stock, which will be taxable according to rules discussed under the heading "Sale, Certain Redemptions or Other Taxable Disposition of Shares and Common Stock" below. Cash dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders are generally taxed at a maximum tax rate of 20%, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Cash distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Shares or Common Stock and thereafter as capital gain from the sale or exchange of such Shares or Common Stock, which will be taxable according to rules discussed under the heading "Sale, Certain Redemptions or Other Taxable Dispositions of Shares and Common Stock," below. Cash dividends received by a corporate holder may be eligible for a dividends received deduction, subject to applicable limitations.
Although it is not entirely free from doubt, U.S. holders of Shares should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax upon the receipt of Common Stock issued as a dividend upon the conversion of Shares. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the tax treatment of distributions of Common Stock made on the Shares.
24
Table of Contents
Sale, Certain Redemptions or Other Taxable Dispositions of Shares and Common Stock
Upon the sale, redemption, or other taxable disposition of Shares or Common Stock, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received upon such taxable disposition and (ii) the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Shares or Common Stock. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if a U.S. Holder's holding period in the Shares or Common Stock is more than one year at the time of the taxable disposition. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will generally be subject to a maximum U.S. federal income tax rate of 20%. Deductions for capital losses are subject to limitations.
Conversion of Shares in Exchange for Common Stock
A U.S. Holder will not recognize any gain or loss by reason of receiving Common Stock in exchange for our Shares upon conversion of the Shares. A U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in Common Stock received upon the conversion of its Shares (including Common Stock received as a dividend upon conversion) should be equal to such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such Shares. A U.S. Holder's holding period for Common Stock received upon the conversion of its Shares should carry over from the converted Shares.
Constructive Dividends
The conversion rate of the Shares is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Adjustments that have the effect of increasing the proportionate interest of holders of our Shares in our assets or earnings can give rise to deemed dividend income to such holders. Similarly, a failure to adjust the Conversion Price to reflect a stock dividend or other events increasing the proportionate interest of the holders of Common Stock can, in some circumstances, give rise to deemed dividend income to such common stock holders. Such deemed dividend income is taxable to such holders in the taxable year of the adjustment (or failure to adjust).
Other U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences Applicable to U.S. Holders
Additional Tax on Passive Income
Individuals, estates and certain trusts whose income exceeds certain thresholds will be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare surtax on "net investment income" including, among other things, dividends on and net gain from the disposition of Shares or Common Stock. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this tax on their ownership and disposition of Shares and Common Stock.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Information reporting requirements generally will apply to payments of dividends on Shares and Common Stock and to the proceeds of a sale of Shares or Common Stock paid to a U.S. Holder unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient (such as a corporation). Backup withholding (currently at a 24% tax rate) will apply to those payments if the U.S. Holder fails to provide its correct taxpayer identification number, or certification of exempt status, or if the U.S. Holder is notified by the IRS that it has failed to report in full payments of interest and dividend income. Backup withholding is not an additional tax, and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is furnished in a timely manner to the IRS.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders of the Acquisition, Ownership and Disposition of Shares and Common Stock
Conversion of Shares in Exchange for Common Shares
A Non-U.S. holder will not recognize any gain or loss by reason of receiving Common Stock, in exchange for our Shares upon conversion of the Shares. A Non-U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in Common Stock received upon the conversion of its Shares (including Common Stock received as a dividend upon conversion) should be equal to such Non-U.S. Holder's tax basis in its converted Shares. A Non-U.S. Holder's holding period for Common Stock received upon the conversion of its Shares should carry over from the Shares.

Table of Contents
Constructive Dividends
The conversion rate of our Shares is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Adjustments that have the effect of increasing the proportionate interest of holders of our Shares in our assets or earnings can give rise to deemed dividend income to such holders. Similarly, a failure to adjust the Conversion Price to reflect a stock dividend or other events increasing the proportionate interest of the holders of Common Stock can, in some circumstances, give rise to deemed dividend income to such common stock holders. Such deemed dividend income is taxable to such holders in the taxable year of the adjustment (or failure to adjust). Any such deemed dividend with respect to Common Stock or Shares would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax on dividend income to the same extent as an actual cash distribution, as described below under "U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders of the Acquisition, Ownership and Disposition of Shares and Common Stock - Distributions." Because deemed distributions would not give rise to any cash from which any applicable withholding tax could be satisfied, we may withhold the U.S. federal tax on such dividend from any cash, shares of common stock or Shares, or sales proceeds otherwise payable to a non-U.S. holder.
Distributions
Cash distributions on Shares or Common Stock will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital and will first reduce a Non-U.S. Holder's basis in Shares or Common Stock, but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain from the sale of stock, which will be taxable according to rules discussed under the heading "Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Shares and Common Stock," below. Any cash dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder with respect to Shares or Common Stock generally will be subject to withholding tax at a 30% gross rate, subject to any exemption or lower rate under an applicable treaty if the Non-U.S. Holder provides us with a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN. A Non-U.S. Holder that provides us with a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or other applicable form) relating to income effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the U.S. will not be subject to the 30% withholding tax.
Although it is not entirely free from doubt, non-U.S. holders of Shares should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax upon the receipt of Common Stock issued as a dividend upon the conversion of Shares. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the tax treatment of distributions of Common Stock made on the Shares.
Cash dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the U.S. are not subject to the withholding tax (assuming proper certification and disclosure), but instead are subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at applicable graduated individual or corporate rates, subject to an applicable treaty that provides otherwise. Any such effectively connected income received by a non-U.S. corporation may, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional branch profits tax on its effectively connected earnings and profits at a 30% rate, subject to any exemption or lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.
A Non-U.S. Holder of Shares or Common Stock who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate or exemption is required to satisfy certain certification and other requirements. If a Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for an exemption from or a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty, it may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.
Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Shares and Common Stock
In general, a Non-U.S. Holder of Shares or Common Stock will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on gain recognized from a sale, exchange, or other taxable disposition of such Shares or Common Stock, unless:
• the gain is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business carried on by the Non-U.S. Holder (and, where an income tax treaty applies, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment of the Non-U.S. Holder), in which case the Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to tax on the net gain from the sale at regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates, and if the Non-U.S. Holder is a corporation, may be subject to an additional U.S. branch profits tax at a gross rate equal to 30% of its effectively connected earnings and profits for that taxable year, subject to any exemption or lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty;
26
Table of Contents
• the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met, in which case the Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a 30% tax on the gain from the sale, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses; or
• we are or have been a "United States real property holding corporation" ("USRPHC") for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the Non-U.S. Holder's holding period or the 5-year period ending on the date of disposition of Shares or Common Stock; provided, with respect to the Shares or Common Stock, that as long as Common Stock is regularly traded on an established securities market as determined under the Treasury Regulations (the "Regularly Traded Exception"), a Non-U.S. Holder would not be subject to taxation on the gain on the sale of Shares or Common Stock under this rule unless the Non-U.S. Holder has owned more than 5% of Common Stock at any time during such 5-year or shorter period (a "5% Shareholder"). Non-U.S. Holders should be aware that we have made no determination as to whether we are or have been a USRPHC, and we can provide no assurances that we are not and will not become a USRPHC in the future. In addition, in the event that we are or become a USRPHC, we can provide no assurances that the Shares or Common Stock will meet the Regularly Traded Exception at the time a Non-U.S. Holder purchases such securities or sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of such securities. Non-U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the consequences to them of investing in a USRPHC. As a USRPHC, a Non-U.S. Holder will be taxed as if any gain or loss were effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business as described above in "Dividends" in the event that (i) such holder is a 5% Shareholder, or (ii) the Regularly Traded Exception is not satisfied during the relevant period
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Generally, we must report annually to the IRS and to Non-U.S. Holders the amount of cash dividends paid on the Shares and Common Stock to Non-U.S. Holders and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments. Copies of the information returns reporting such dividends and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which a Non-U.S. Holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.
In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to payments of dividends that we make, provided we receive a statement meeting certain requirements to the effect that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a U.S. person and we do not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a U.S. person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient. The requirements for the statement will be met if (1) the Non-U.S. Holder provides its name, address and U.S. taxpayer identification number, if any, and certifies, under penalty of perjury, that it is not a U.S. person (which certification may be made on IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable) or (2) a financial institution holding the instrument on behalf of the Non-U.S. Holder certifies, under penalty of perjury, that such statement has been received by it and furnishes us or our paying agent with a copy of the statement. In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding with respect to payments of the proceeds of a sale of Shares and Common Stock within the U.S. or conducted through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries, unless the statement described above has been received, and we do not have actual knowledge or reason to know that a holder is a U.S. person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient, or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is furnished in a timely manner to the IRS.
Rules Relating to Foreign Accounts
Generally, we will be required to withhold tax at a rate of 30% on dividends in respect of Shares and Common Stock held by or through certain foreign entities unless such entity is in compliance with its obligations under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or "FATCA."

1. The price of a share of Preferred Stock in this prospectus assumes a combined public offering price of $25 per share. The offering price was determined by the Company on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which Preferred Stock would trade if it was listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers, and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company.
2. We have agreed to pay to the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 7.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual aggregate cash placement fee, if any, is not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amount set forth above.
3. We have also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent at closing for legal and other expenses incurred by the Placement Agent in connection with this offering in an amount up to $110,000.
We estimate that the total expenses of the offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding placement agent fees, will be approximately $355,000, all of which are payable by us. This figure includes the Placement Agent's accountable expenses, including, but not limited to, legal fees for Placement Agent's legal counsel, that we have agreed to pay at the closing of the offering up to an aggregate expense reimbursement of $110,000.
Determination of Offering Price
The Offering Price for each share of Preferred Stock is $25.00. The Offering Price was determined by the Company on an arbitrary basis and may not be indicative of the price at which Preferred Stock would trade if it was listed on an exchange or were actively traded by brokers and may not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth of the Company. However, when determining the Offering Price our board of directors considered, among other factors, the trading of our Common Stock prior to this offering, the history and prospects of our company, the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment of our management, general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.
The Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock will be set at the time of pricing the offering. See, "Risk Factors" for more information.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in our best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's actions were unlawful. The DGCL further provides that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or otherwise.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director or officer of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except (i) for any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) a director for payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; (iv) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; or (v) an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.
In addition, as permitted by Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director, except to the extent such an exemption from liability thereof is not permitted under the DGCL.
As permitted by the DGCL, we have entered into indemnity agreements with each of our directors and executive officers, that require us to indemnify such persons against any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys', witness or other professional fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (including derivative actions), whether actual or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer or is or was acting or serving as our officer, director, employee or agent or any of our affiliated enterprises. Under these agreements, we are not required to provide indemnification for certain matters, including:
• indemnification beyond that permitted by the DGCL;
• indemnification for any proceeding with respect to the unlawful payment of remuneration to the director or officer;
• indemnification for certain proceedings involving a final judgment that the director or officer is required to disgorge profits from the purchase or sale of our stock;

• indemnification for proceedings involving a final judgment that the director's or officer's conduct was in bad faith, knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest or constituted willful misconduct or a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but only to the extent of such specific determination;
• indemnification for proceedings or claims brought by an officer or director against us or any of our directors, officers, employees or agents, except for claims to establish a right of indemnification or proceedings or claims approved by our board of directors or required by law;
• indemnification for settlements the director or officer enters into without our consent; or
• indemnification in violation of any undertaking required by the Securities Act or in any registration statement filed by us.
The indemnification agreements also set forth certain procedures that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder.
We have an insurance policy in place that covers our officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or otherwise.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
II-15
Table of Contents
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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Filing Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
II-16
Table of Contents
(7) 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.
(8) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(i) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(ii) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering.
