We may offer these securities in amounts, at prices, and on terms determined at the time of offering, up to an aggregate amount of $25,000,000; however, as of the date of this prospectus, under the limitations described below, we are currently only eligible to sell approximately $13.08 million of securities. We may sell these securities directly to you through agents we select or through underwriters and dealers we select. If we use agents, underwriters or dealers to sell these securities, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. See “Plan of Distribution.” You should read this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement carefully before you invest.

This prospectus provides a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide specific terms of the securities offered in a supplement to this prospectus. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement carefully, together with additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information,” before you invest in any securities. This prospectus may not be used to consummate a sale of securities unless accompanied by the applicable prospectus supplement.

Our Class A common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BTM.” On November 11, 2024, the per share closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $2.68 per share.

The aggregate market value of our outstanding Class A common stock held by non-affiliates is approximately $39,250,650, which was calculated in accordance with General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, based on 18,122,048 shares of Class A common stock outstanding as of November 12, 2024, of which 14,645,765 shares are held by non- affiliates, at the closing share price of $2.68 on November 11, 2024, which was the highest closing price of our Class A common stock reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market within the last 60 days prior to the date of this filing.

In this prospectus we are offering up to $25,000,000 of securities; however, pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, in no event will we sell the securities described in this prospectus in a primary public offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of the aggregate market value of our Class A common stock held by non-affiliates in the twelve-month period prior to the date of the sale of any such securities, so long as the aggregate market value of our outstanding Class A common stock held by non-affiliates remains below $75.0 million. As of the date of this prospectus, under such rules and including our sales within the twelve-month period prior to the date of this prospectus, we are only eligible to sell up to approximately $13,083,550 of securities until our circumstances, as described above, change.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information from this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you in making an investment decision. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information included elsewhere in this prospectus and/or incorporated by reference herein. Before making your investment decision with respect to our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including the information in our filings with the SEC incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

Our Business

Bitcoin Depot owns and operates the largest network of Bitcoin ATMs (“BTMs”) across North America where customers can buy and sell Bitcoin. Bitcoin Depot helps power the digital economy for users of cash.

Our mission is Bringing Bitcoin to the MassesTM. Digital means and systems dominate the way that consumers send money, make purchases, and invest; however, we believe that many people utilize cash as their primary means of initiating a transaction, either as a necessity or as a preference. These individuals have largely been excluded from the digital financial system and associated technological advancements in our global and digitally interconnected society. Bitcoin Depot’s simple and convenient process to convert cash into Bitcoin via our BTMs and feature-rich mobile app enables not only these users, but also the broader public, to access the digital financial system.

As of September 30, 2024, our offerings included approximately 8,304 BTMs in retailer locations throughout the U.S. and Canada, our BDCheckout product, which is accepted at approximately 7,723 retail locations, and our mobile app. We maintain a leading position among cash-to-Bitcoin BTM operators in the U.S. and Canada.

Kiosk Network and Retailer Relationships

Bitcoin Depot operates a network of kiosks that allow users to purchase Bitcoin with cash. Upon using a Bitcoin Depot kiosk for the first time, users will be prompted to provide certain information for account creation and verification. Users are required to select from three ranges of cash amounts to be inserted in the kiosk for purchasing Bitcoin. The user then provides the address of his or her digital wallet by scanning a QR code or manually inputting his or her unique wallet address; the user can create and use a Bitcoin Depot-branded wallet (un-hosted and non-custodial), or his or her own other existing digital wallet. Cash is then inserted by the user into the kiosk, and the kiosk will confirm the dollar amount and other details of the transaction, including quantity of Bitcoin being purchased. Once the transaction is complete, the Bitcoin is electronically delivered to the user’s digital wallet and the user is provided with a physical receipt as well as a receipt via SMS text.

Bitcoin Depot’s largest BTM deployment as of September 30, 2024 is with Circle K, a convenience store chain of over 9,000 stores in North America and over 4,800 stores in Europe and other international markets. We are the exclusive provider and operator of BTMs for Circle K in the U.S. and Canada, and as of September 30, 2024, we have installed our BTMs in over 1,200 Circle K stores. We also have kiosks deployed in other convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies, and shopping malls.

Cryptocurrencies

Our revenues, $436.9 million and $540.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, have not been correlated to the price of Bitcoin historically, even in light of volatile Bitcoin prices. For example, our revenue during the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2024 declined by 15.2% compared to the same period ended September 30, 2023, while the market price of Bitcoin increased by 127% during the same period. Based on our own user surveys, a majority of our users use our products and services for non-speculative purposes, including money transfers, international remittances, and online purchases, among others.

Summary Risk Factors

Our business is subject to risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. You should carefully consider the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors,” and in the other reports and documents that we have filed with the SEC.

Corporate Information

Lux Vending, LLC, then d/b/a Bitcoin Depot (“Legacy Bitcoin Depot”) was formed on June 7, 2016. We were originally formed on October 14, 2021, as GSR II Meteora Acquisition Corp. (“GSRM”), a special purpose acquisition company. On June 30, 2023, pursuant to a transaction with GSRM, Legacy Bitcoin Depot merged with and into GSRM (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, GSRM was renamed Bitcoin Depot Inc.

Our principal executive offices are located at 3343 Peachtree Road NE, Suite 750, Atlanta, Georgia, 30326. Our corporate website address is www.BitcoinDepot.com. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this prospectus. The website address is included as an inactive textual reference only.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

We are a smaller reporting company as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, and if we are a smaller reporting company with less than $100 million in annual revenue, we would not be required obtain an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK

Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock.

The powers (including voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of preferred stock and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any other series at any time outstanding. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, the number of authorized shares of preferred stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares of preferred stock then outstanding) by the approval of our board of directors and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in an election of directors, without the separate vote of the holders of the preferred stock as a class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, we filed a certificate of designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware establishing the Series A preferred stock issued pursuant to the PIPE Agreement. Each share of Series A preferred stock (i) ranks senior to the all classes of Common Stock with respect to dividends, distributions, redemptions and payments upon liquidation or dissolution, (ii) is entitled to participate in any distributions or dividends made to holders of Class A common stock, (iii) does not have voting rights (other than in relation to amendments to the certificate of designation itself or as required by the DGCL), (iv) is initially convertible at any time at the election of the holder into one share of Class A common stock, subject to accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, and (v) is entitled to customary anti-dilution protections. As of November 12, 2024, 3,075,000 shares of Series A preferred stock remained outstanding.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

We may issue, in one or more series, units comprised of shares of our Class A common stock and/or preferred stock, warrants to purchase Class A common stock and/or preferred stock or any combination of those securities. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

We may evidence units by unit certificates that we issue under a separate agreement. We may issue the units under a unit agreement between us and one or more unit agents. If we elect to enter into a unit agreement with a unit agent, the unit agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the units and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any registered holders of units or beneficial owners of units. We will indicate the name and address and other information regarding the unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of units if we elect to use a unit agent.

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units being offered, including:

 

   

the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;

 

   

any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described herein; and

 

   

any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

The other provisions regarding our Class A common stock, preferred stock and warrants as described in this section will apply to each unit to the extent such unit consists of shares of our Class A common stock and/or warrants.

through underwriters or dealers;

directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser;

 

   

through agents, including via an at-the-market program; or

 

   

through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

Each time that we use this prospectus to sell securities, we will also provide a prospectus supplement that contains the specific terms of the offering. The prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

 

   

the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents and the amounts of any securities underwritten or purchased by each of them; and

 

   

the purchase price of the securities being offered and the proceeds to us and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.

Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

If underwriters are used in the sale of any securities, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The securities may be either offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters, or directly by underwriters. Generally, the underwriters’ obligations to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities if they purchase any of securities. Only underwriters named in the applicable prospectus supplement shall be underwriters of the securities offered thereby.

We may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions we pay to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

We may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified applicable date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.

Agents and underwriters may be entitled to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to contribution with respect to payments which the agents or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. Agents and underwriters may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.

We may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us

 

15


Table of Contents

or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of securities and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of securities. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). We may also use underwriters or such other third parties with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of any such relationship in the applicable prospectus supplement.

At-the-Market Offerings

Upon written instruction from us, after entering into a distribution agency agreement with us, a sales agent may use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf, as our agent, the shares of Class A common stock offered as agreed upon by us and the sales agent. We will designate the maximum amount of shares of Class A common stock to be sold through the sales agent, on a daily basis or otherwise as we and the sales agent agree. Subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable distribution agency agreement, the sales agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell, as our sales agent and on our behalf, all of the designated shares of Class A common stock. We may instruct the sales agent not to sell shares of Class A common stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us in any such instruction. We may suspend the offering of shares of Class A common stock under any distribution agency agreement by notifying the sales agent. Likewise, the sales agent may suspend the offering of shares of Class A common stock under the applicable distribution agency agreement by notifying us of such suspension.

We also may sell shares to the sales agent as principal for its own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. If we sell shares to the sales agent as principal, we will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the terms of such transaction or such sales may be provided for in the distribution agreement described above.

It is contemplated that the distribution agreements entered into with sales agents will allow such sales agents to make sales in privately negotiated transactions and/or under any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, sales made directly on The Nasdaq Capital Market, the existing trading market for our Class A common stock, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. The name of any such underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of our Class A common stock, the amounts underwritten, and the nature of its obligations to take our Class A common stock will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Up to $13,000,000

Class A Common Stock

We have entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “sales agreement”) dated November 19, 2024, with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as sales agent (the “Agent”), relating to the sale of shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, having an aggregate purchase price of $13,000,000. In accordance with the terms of the sales agreement, pursuant to this prospectus and upon our delivery of a placement notice to the Agent, we may offer and sell shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $13,000,000 from time to time through the Agent.

Our Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BTM.” On November 11, 2024, the closing sale price of our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $2.68 per share.

Sales of our Class A common stock, if any, under this prospectus will be made by any permitted method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market, the existing trading market for our Class A common stock, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, directly to the Agent as principal, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or in any other method permitted by law. The Agent is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities, but will act as our sales agent using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their normal trading and sales practices to sell on our behalf all of the shares of Class A common stock requested to be sold by us, on mutually agreed terms between the Agent and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

The Agent will be entitled to compensation under the terms of the sales agreement at a commission rate of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of Class A common stock sold under the sales agreement. In connection with the sale of our Class A common stock on our behalf, the Agent will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the Agent will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 12 for additional information regarding the compensation to be paid to the Agent. We have also agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agent with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

As of November 12, 2024, the aggregate market value of our outstanding Class A common stock held by non-affiliates, or public float calculated for purposes of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, was approximately $39,250,650, based on 18,122,048 shares of outstanding Class A common stock as of November 12, 2024, of which approximately 3,476,283 shares were held by affiliates, and a price of $2.68 per share, which was the price at which our Class A common stock was last sold on the Nasdaq Capital Market on November 11, 2024. We have sold no securities pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 during the prior 12-calendar month period that ends on and includes the date of this prospectus (excluding this offering). Accordingly, based on the foregoing, we are currently eligible under General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 to offer and sell shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to approximately $13,083,550. Pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, in no event will we sell securities in a public primary offering with a value exceeding one-third of our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75.0 million.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 8 of this prospectus as well as the information under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2024, and in the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the accompanying base prospectus for a discussion of the factors you should carefully consider before investing in our securities.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus or the accompanying base prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

H.C. Wainwright & Co.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) using a “shelf” registration process. Under this prospectus, we may offer shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price set forth on the cover page hereof, from time to time at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of offering.

Before buying any of the shares of Class A common stock offered hereby, we urge you to read carefully this prospectus, the accompanying base prospectus and all of the information incorporated herein by reference in this prospectus and the accompanying base prospectus, as well as the additional information described below under the heading “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.” These documents contain important information that you should consider when making your investment decision.

We provide information to you about this offering of our Class A common stock in two separate documents that are bound together: (1) this prospectus, which describes the specific details regarding this offering; and (2) the accompanying base prospectus, which provides general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. Generally, when we refer to this “prospectus,” we are referring to both documents combined. If information in this prospectus is inconsistent with the accompanying base prospectus, you should rely on this prospectus. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus, on the one hand, and the information contained in any document incorporated by reference in this prospectus that was filed with the SEC before the date of this prospectus, on the other hand, you should rely on the information in this prospectus, provided that if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference in this prospectus—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.

We have not, and the sales agent has not, authorized anyone to provide you with information other than the information that we have provided or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, the accompanying base prospectus or any other prospectus supplement and your reliance on any unauthorized information or representation is at your own risk. This prospectus may be used only in jurisdictions where offers and sales of these securities are permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date of this prospectus and that any information we have incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus, or any sale of our Class A common stock. Our business, financial condition and results of operations may have changed since those dates.

We further note that the representations, warranties and covenants made by us in any agreement that is filed as an exhibit to any document that is incorporated by reference herein were made solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, including, in some cases, for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties to such agreements, and should not be deemed to be a representation, warranty or covenant to you. Moreover, such representations, warranties or covenants were accurate only as of the date when made. Accordingly, such representations, warranties and covenants should not be relied on as accurately representing the current state of our affairs.

We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. This prospectus and the accompanying prospectus is an offer to sell only the securities offered hereby and only under circumstances and in jurisdictions where it is lawful to do so. No dealer, salesperson or other person is authorized to give any information or to represent anything not contained in this prospectus, accompanying prospectus, and any free writing prospectuses prepared by or on behalf of us or to which we have referred you or are incorporated by reference. This prospectus is not an offer to sell securities, and it is not soliciting an offer to buy securities, in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.

Unless otherwise stated, all references in this prospectus to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Bitcoin Depot,” the “Company” and similar designations refer to Bitcoin Depot Inc.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains predictive or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of current or historical fact contained in this prospectus, including statements that express our intentions, plans, objectives, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections made by management about our business, our industry and other conditions affecting our financial condition, results of operations or business prospects. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements due to numerous risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause such outcomes and results to differ include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties arising from:

 

   

estimates and forecasts of financial and performance metrics and expectations related to realizing the potential benefits of the Business Combination;

 

   

failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination;

 

   

the ability to maintain the listing of the Class A common stock and the warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market;

 

   

the Company’s ability to issue equity or equity-linked securities, to obtain debt financing or refinance existing indebtedness on satisfactory terms, or otherwise raise financing in the future;

 

   

the liquidity and trading of the Class A common stock and the warrants;

 

   

members of the Company’s management team allocating their time to other businesses and potentially having conflicts of interest with the Company’s business;

 

   

the Company’s future financial performance;

 

   

the Company’s success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, its officers, key employees or directors;

 

   

the Company’s ability to identify organic and inorganic growth opportunities and the ability to manage future growth;

 

   

the Company’s ability to develop new products and services, bring them to market in a timely manner, and make enhancements to its business;

 

   

the effects of competition on the Company’s business;

 

   

changes in domestic and foreign business, financial, political and legal conditions;

 

   

future global, regional or local economic and market conditions;

 

   

the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries;

 

   

the development, effects and enforcement of laws and regulations;

 

   

uncertainty regarding the actual number of shares we will issue pursuant to the sales agreement and gross proceeds resulting from those sales, at any one time or in total;

 

   

the Class A common stock offered in connection with the sales pursuant to the sales agreement will be sold in “at the market offerings,” and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices;

 

3


Table of Contents
   

we will have broad discretion in the use of proceeds;

 

   

you may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings;

 

   

Brandon Mintz will continue to control a voting majority of our common stock following the offering;

 

   

our stock price can be volatile, which increases the risk of litigation, and may result in a significant decline in the value of your investment; and

 

   

we do not intend to pay dividends on our Class A common stock, so your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation, if any, in the price of our Class A common stock.

Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this prospectus, except as required by applicable law. Investors should evaluate any statements made by us in light of these important factors. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. In addition, with respect to all of our forward-looking statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

References in this prospectus to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar words refer to Bitcoin Depot Inc.

Our Business

Bitcoin Depot owns and operates the largest network of Bitcoin ATMs (“BTMs”) across North America where customers can buy and sell Bitcoin. Bitcoin Depot helps power the digital economy for users of cash.

Our mission is Bringing Bitcoin to the MassesTM. Digital means and systems dominate the way that consumers send money, make purchases, and invest; however, we believe that many people utilize cash as their primary means of initiating a transaction, either as a necessity or as a preference. These individuals have largely been excluded from the digital financial system and associated technological advancements in our global and digitally interconnected society. Bitcoin Depot’s simple and convenient process to convert cash into Bitcoin via our BTMs and feature-rich mobile app enables not only these users, but also the broader public, to access the digital financial system.

As of September 30, 2024, our offerings included approximately 8,304 BTMs in retailer locations throughout the U.S. and Canada, our BDCheckout product, which is accepted at approximately 7,723 retail locations, and our mobile app. We maintain a leading position among cash-to-Bitcoin BTM operators in the U.S. and Canada.

Kiosk Network and Retailer Relationships

Bitcoin Depot operates a network of kiosks that allow users to purchase Bitcoin with cash. Upon using a Bitcoin Depot kiosk for the first time, users will be prompted to provide certain information for account creation and verification. Users are required to select from three ranges of cash amounts to be inserted in the kiosk for purchasing Bitcoin. The user then provides the address of his or her digital wallet by scanning a QR code or manually inputting his or her unique wallet address; the user can create and use a Bitcoin Depot-branded wallet (un-hosted and non-custodial), or his or her own other existing digital wallet. Cash is then inserted by the user into the kiosk, and the kiosk will confirm the dollar amount and other details of the transaction, including quantity of Bitcoin being purchased. Once the transaction is complete, the Bitcoin is electronically delivered to the user’s digital wallet and the user is provided with a physical receipt as well as a receipt via SMS text.

Bitcoin Depot’s largest BTM deployment as of September 30, 2024 is with Circle K, a convenience store chain of over 9,000 stores in North America and over 4,800 stores in Europe and other international markets. We are the exclusive provider and operator of BTMs for Circle K in the U.S. and Canada, and as of September 30, 2024 we have installed our BTMs in over 1,200 Circle K stores. We also have kiosks deployed in other convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies, and shopping malls.

Our revenues, $436.9 million and $540.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, have not been correlated to the price of Bitcoin historically, even in light of volatile Bitcoin prices. For example, our revenue during the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2024 declined by 15.2% compared to the same period ended September 30, 2023, while the market price of Bitcoin increased by 127% during the same period. Based on our own user surveys, a majority of our users use our products and services for non-speculative purposes, including money transfers, international remittances, and online purchases, among others.

Summary Risk Factors

Our business is subject to risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. You should carefully consider the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors,” and in the other reports and documents that we have filed with the SEC.

Corporate Information

Lux Vending, LLC, then d/b/a Bitcoin Depot (“Legacy Bitcoin Depot”) was formed on June 7, 2016. We were originally formed on October 14, 2021, as GSR II Meteora Acquisition Corp. (“GSRM”), a special purpose acquisition company. On June 30, 2023, pursuant to a transaction with GSRM, Legacy Bitcoin Depot merged with and into GSRM (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, GSRM was renamed Bitcoin Depot Inc.

Our principal executive offices are located at 3343 Peachtree Road NE, Suite 750, Atlanta, Georgia, 30326. Our corporate website address is www.BitcoinDepot.com. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this prospectus. The website address is included as an inactive textual reference only.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

We are a smaller reporting company as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, and if we are a smaller reporting company with less than $100 million in annual revenue, we would not be required obtain an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm.

RISK FACTORS

Investment in our Class A common stock involves risks. Before deciding whether to invest in our Class A common stock, you should consider carefully the risk factors discussed below and those contained in the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, together with other information in the accompanying prospectuses, the information and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, and in any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. This could cause the trading price of our Class A common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations.

Additional Risks Related to our Company, our Common Stock and this Offering

Brandon Mintz will continue to control a voting majority of our common stock following the offering.

Following the Business Combination, Brandon Mintz, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, together with BT Assets, beneficially owned approximately 77.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock (in the form of 44,100,000 shares of Class V common stock held by BT Assets, which are non-economic and represent approximately 97.0% of the voting power in Bitcoin Depot as the Class V common stock carry ten votes per share, and 500,000 shares of Class A common stock held directly by Brandon Mintz, representing an additional approximately 0.1% of the voting power of Bitcoin Depot). In April 2024, Mr. Mintz sold 2,906,976 shares of Class A common stock, which were issued upon the exchange of a corresponding number of shares of Class V common stock previously held by him. After giving effect to this sale Mr. Mintz controls 95.88% of the vote. Accordingly, Mr. Mintz is able to control or significantly influence all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions. The consummation of this offering will not impact Mr. Mintz’s holdings of Class V common stock or Class A common stock, so Mr. Mintz will continue to be able to exercise such control and influence over us. The interests of Mr. Mintz may not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders, and Mr. Mintz may take actions that advance his own interests and are contrary to the desires of our other stockholders. Moreover, this concentration of voting power may delay, prevent or deter a change in control of us even when such a change may be in the best interests of all stockholders, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of Bitcoin Depot or our assets, and might affect the prevailing market price of our common stock.

The actual number of shares we will issue and gross proceeds resulting from those sales, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.

Subject to certain limitations in the sales agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a placement notice to the Agent at any time throughout the term of the sales agreement. The number of shares that are sold by the Agent after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on the market price of our common stock during the sales period and limits we set with the Agent in any instruction to sell shares, and the demand for our common stock during the sales period. Because the price per share of each share sold will fluctuate based on the market price of our Class A common stock during the sales period, it is not possible at this stage to predict the number of shares that will be sold or the gross proceeds to be raised in connection with those sales, if any, that will be ultimately issued.

The Class A common stock offered hereby will be sold in “at the market offerings,” and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.

Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to

Table of Contents

vary the timing and prices of sales and numbers of shares sold, and there is no minimum or maximum sales price. Investors may experience a decline in the value of their shares as a result of share sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.

We are selling the securities offered in this prospectus on a “commercially reasonable efforts” basis and may not be able to sell any of the securities offered herein.

We have engaged the Agent to act as our sales agent in connection with this offering. While the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities, the Agent is under no obligation to purchase any of the securities. As a result, there are no firm commitments to purchase any of the securities in this offering. Consequently, there is no guarantee that we will be capable of selling all, or any, of the securities being offered hereby.

We will have broad discretion in the use of proceeds of this offering designated for general corporate purposes and working capital requirements.

Our management will have broad discretion over the use and investment of the net proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, investors in this offering have only limited information concerning our management’s specific intentions and will need to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of proceeds. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business and cause the price of our securities to decline. Pending the application of these funds, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our Class A common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Class A common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share paid by investors in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less 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 our Class A common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into Class A common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering.

Our stock price can be volatile, which increases the risk of litigation, and may result in a significant decline in the value of your investment.

The trading price of our Class A common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

 

   

legislative or regulatory changes;

 

   

judicial pronouncements interpreting laws and regulations;

 

   

changes in government programs;

 

   

fluctuations in stock market prices and trading volumes of similar companies;

 

   

changes in accounting principles;

 

   

litigation;

Table of Contents
   

sales of large blocks of our common stock, including sales by our executive officers, directors and significant shareholders; and

 

   

our ability to obtain additional financing.

In addition, equity markets in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies traded in those markets. These broad market and industry factors may materially affect the market price of our Class A common stock, regardless of our development and operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against that company. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could cause us to incur substantial costs to defend such claims and divert management’s attention and resources, which could seriously harm our business.

We do not intend to pay dividends on our Class A common stock, so your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation, if any, in the price of our 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.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We may issue and sell shares of our Class A common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $13,000,000 from time to time under this prospectus. The amount of the net proceeds to us from this offering will depend upon the number of shares of our Class A common stock sold and the price at which they are sold. There can be no assurance that we will be able to sell any shares under or fully utilize the sales agreement.

We may use any net proceeds from the sale of securities under this prospectus for general corporate purposes and working capital requirements. As a result, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of this offering. Pending their ultimate use, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of securities, including commercial paper, government and non-government debt securities and/or money market funds that invest in such securities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Class A common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors our board of directors deems relevant.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We entered into the sales agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as agent (the “Agent”) on November 19, 2024, under which we may issue and sell shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $13,000,000 from time to time through or to the Agent acting as sales agent or principal.

Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the sales agreement, the Agent may offer and sell shares of our Class A common stock by any method permitted by law which is deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market, the existing trading market for our Class A common stock, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, directly to the Agent as principal, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or using any other method permitted by law. We or the Agent may suspend the offering of Class A common stock upon notice and subject to other conditions.

We will pay the Agent commissions, in cash, for its services in acting as agent in the sale of our Class A common stock. The Agent will be entitled to compensation at a commission rate of up to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition of this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse the Agent for certain specified expenses in an amount up to $75,000, in addition to up to $5,000 per due diligence update session for the Agent’s counsel’s fees. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding compensation and reimbursements payable to the Agent under the terms of the sales agreement, will be approximately $625,000.

Settlement for sales of shares of Class A common stock will occur on the first trading day following the date on which any sales are made (or any such shorter settlement cycle as may be in effect under Exchange Act Rule 15c6-1 from time to time), or on some other date that is agreed upon by us and the Agent in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. Sales of our Class A common stock as contemplated in this prospectus will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and the Agent may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

The Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the shares of Class A common stock under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the sales agreement. In connection with the sale of the shares of Class A common stock on our behalf, the Agent will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the Agent will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agent against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

This offering of shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to the sales agreement will terminate upon termination of the sales agreement as permitted therein. We and the Agent may each terminate the sales agreement as provided therein.

To the extent required by Regulation M, the Agent will not engage in any market making activities involving our Class A common stock while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus. The Agent and its affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which they may in the future receive customary fees.

This summary of the material provisions of the sales agreement does not purport to be a complete statement of its terms and conditions. A copy of the sales agreement is filed with the SEC as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference” above.

This prospectus in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by the Agent, and the Agent may distribute this prospectus electronically.

Item 15.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Company is governed by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Section 145 of the DGCL (“Section 145”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnification may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Section 145 also provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of such corporation, under the same conditions, except that such indemnification is limited to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person, and except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if such person is adjudged to be liable to such corporation. Where an officer or director of a corporation is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must indemnify that person against the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.

 

II-1


Table of Contents

Our Second Amended and Restated Charter and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was our director or executive officer (as defined in our Bylaws) or serves or served at any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise as a director or executive officer at our request.

Our Second Amended and Restated Charter eliminates the liability of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, a corporation may eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or an officer, as applicable, except for liabilities arising (i) from any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) from acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) from any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, or (iv) with respect to a director, under Section 174 of the DGCL, and with respect to an officer, from any action by or in the right of the corporation.

These provisions may be held not to be enforceable for certain violations of the federal securities laws of the United States.

Furthermore, on the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, we entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These indemnification agreements require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of our directors or executive officers.

In addition, we have purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.

Item 17.

Undertakings

(a)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

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

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

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the 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 Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

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

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by registrant pursuant to Section 13 and Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

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

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

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

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

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

(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.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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.

Table of Contents

(c) 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.

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

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

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

(e) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of section 310 of the Securities Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the SEC under section 305(b)(2) of the Securities Act.
