與本次發行有關的風險
我們可能會將這次發行的淨收益分配到股東可能不同意的地方。
我們目前打算將此次發行所得的淨收入(如有)用於一般企業用途,包括開發和推廣我們的saas-雲計算產品、飛機採購、研發、一般管理費用、許可或技術收購、運營資本支出和資本支出。此外,我們計劃利用此次發行的一部分淨收入贖回A系列優先股和A-1系列優先股,包括任何應付的應計利息和/或補償。我們也可能利用淨收入償還任何債務和/或投資於或收購補充性業務、產品或技術,儘管截至本招股說明書日期,我們目前並無關於此類投資或收購的任何承諾或協議。此次發行淨收益的預期使用反映了我們根據當前計劃和業務狀況的意圖。我們實際支出的金額和時間可能會根據諸多因素髮生顯著變化。由於會影響我們使用本次發行所得的資金的因素數量和可變性,最終利用將可能與當前預期用途大不相同。因此,我們將保留自行決定如何分配此次發行淨收益並可能以並不一定提升我們營運業績或增進普通股價值的方式使用資金。請參閱名稱爲“使用所得款項詳見「 」以了解更多信息。

股東可能會立即和大量地經歷攤薄。
根據每股普通股的發行價格$0.096,購買者將有效承擔每股約$0.088的淨有形賬面價值攤薄,即發行價格約爲8.1%的股份。 此外,您可能會因我們普通股的發行而進一步蒙受攤薄,在優先股權或期權行使後發行的普通股份。請參閱「」部分,以獲取有關發行給新投資者的攤薄的更詳細描述。稀釋查看每股普通股的發行價格$0.096,購買者將有效承擔每股約$0.088的淨有形賬面價值攤薄,即發行價格約爲8.1%的股份。 此外,您可能會因我們普通股的發行而進一步蒙受攤薄,在優先股權或期權行使後發行的普通股份。請參閱「」部分,以獲取有關發行給新投資者的攤薄的更詳細描述。
您 可能會因未來股權發行而面臨未來稀釋。
爲了籌集額外資金,我們將來可能以與本次發行價格不同的價格,發行額外的普通股或其他可轉換爲或可交換爲我們的普通股的證券。我們可能會以每股價格低於本次發行中任何投資者支付的每股價格的價格,出售股票或其他證券,併購買未來股票或其他證券的投資者可能擁有優於現有股東的權利。我們出售額外的普通股、或可轉換爲或可交換爲普通股的證券的每股價格,在未來交易中可能高於或低於本次發行中任何投資者支付的每股價格。
公司業務相關的風險
如果未能成功籌集到額外資金,公司可能無法繼續經營其業務,因此可能無法作爲一個持續經營實體。
公司依賴自身經營的資金、融資安排的收入和額外籌款,以維持持續經營。公司持續遭受來自經營的損失,並有顯著積累虧損。由於這些經營損失的持續存在、經營活動現金流量爲負和需要額外資本,公司是否能夠繼續作爲持續經營主體存在存疑。因此,我們獨立的註冊會計師事務所在報告公司截至2023年12月31日的年度審計財務報表中包括了一段表達對於公司能夠繼續作爲持續經營主體存在存疑的解釋性段落。財務報表已按照美國通用會計準則編制,其假設公司將繼續作爲持續經營主體存在。公司的財務報表不包含如果公司無法繼續作爲持續經營主體存在可能產生的任何調整。不能確保管理層能否獲得可接受公司的資本的充足數量。如果公司無法獲得足夠額外資本,公司可能需要減少其計劃開發和運營的近期範圍,這可能會延誤公司業務計劃的實施,並影響其業務、財務狀況和營運結果。在這種情況下,公司可能不得不顯著減少其業務或推遲、縮減或終止一個或多個產品的開發,尋求替代融資安排,宣佈破產或完全終止業務。
如果公司無法內部或外部融資其飛機或產生足夠的資金支付給外部融資來源,公司可能會失敗。
根據航空行業的慣例,公司依賴外部融資來收購飛機,並且未來可能需要額外融資以擴大其機隊。如果公司無法產生足夠的營業收入或其他資金來支付租賃安排,出租方可能會收回飛機,這將對公司的業務和聲譽造成重大不利影響。此外,如果公司無法出於任何原因(包括與公司的業務或前景以及更廣泛經濟有關的原因)獲得未來飛機的外部融資,公司可能無法增長和/或生存。
S-5 |
公司可能沒有足夠的資本需求,可能需要籌集更多資金,後續融資條件可能會對您的投資產生不利影響。
公司預計隨着發展壯大,將需要借款以支持其運營資金需求。利率期貨仍保持在歷史高位,並且對於以有利條件獲取信貸而言,環境相當嚴峻。如果公司在需要時無法獲得信貸,公司可能會發行債務或股本證券以籌集資金,調整其增長計劃或採取其他舉措。債務證券利息可能會增加成本並對經營業績產生負面影響,可轉換債務證券可能導致稀釋你對公司的權益。如果公司無法以有利條件找到額外資金,那麼公司可能會選擇停止銷售活動。在這種情況下,要想獲得投資回報的唯一資產可能就是公司的知識產權。即使公司不被迫停止銷售活動,但資金缺乏可能導致公司的表現低於預期,從而對你的投資價值造成不利影響。
公司的業務和聲譽依賴於,並將繼續依賴第三方。
公司一直依賴第三方應用程序開發者來開發其應用程序的初期版本,並且公司可能一直依賴第三方開發任何新的或修訂的應用程序的部分。 公司不再依賴第三方應用程序開發者,取而代之的是公司依賴內部開發以及由公司首席技術官監督的自由承包商。 公司打算繼續建設其內部開發團隊,並逐漸減少其對外部承包商進行應用程序開發的依賴。 如果應用程序的進一步開發出現延遲或問題,可能會導致困難,包括但不限於以下情況:
● | 增加了開發成本:延長的開發時間表可能導致與人員、軟件許可、硬件和其他開發資源相關的更高成本。延遲可能需要額外的投資來解決技術問題,僱傭更多人員,或者獲取額外的技術或專業知識以加快開發流程。這些增加的成本可能會對我們的財務表現和盈利能力產生負面影響。 | |
● | 錯過上市時機機遇:應用開發延遲可能導致我們錯過戰略市場窗口,限制我們捕捉早期採用者並獲得競爭優勢的能力。競爭對手可能抓住機會推出類似應用,可能侵蝕我們的市場份額並降低我們的增長前景。由此可能損害我們產生營收和建立強大市場存在的能力。 | |
● | 客戶不滿和信任流失:如果延遲或複雜性延長了我們應用發佈的時間,可能會導致客戶的沮喪和失望。對應用可用性的期待可能會減弱,用戶可能會轉向其他解決方案或競爭對手。客戶的不滿可能損害我們的聲譽和品牌形象,導致信任流失,降低客戶對我們產品和服務的忠誠度和參與度。 | |
● | 對營收和財務表現的負面影響:推出應用的延遲可能會影響我們的營收預測、財務預測和投資計劃。未能產生預期的營收流可能會對我們的現金流、盈利能力和履行財務義務或籌集額外資金的能力產生不利影響。我們的估值和對投資者的吸引力也可能受到負面影響。 | |
● | 機會成本與競爭劣勢:花費在解決延遲和複雜性上的時間會分散管理層的注意力和資源,使其無法專注於其他戰略舉措或產品開發。我們可能會錯過潛在的合作伙伴機會、市場擴張或產品改進,導致營業收入和增長機會的遺失。在更短時間內成功推出其應用程序的競爭對手可能會獲得競爭優勢。 | |
● | 投資者信心的流失:持續的延遲或持續的問題可能會削弱投資者對我們成功執行業務計劃的信心。投資者可能會對我們管理層的能力產生質疑,導致投資者興趣降低、籌集資金困難,以及可能導致股價下跌。投資者信心的流失可能對我們的整體財務穩定性和長期生存能力產生更廣泛的影響。 |
S-6 |
公司還預計將在其現有營運夥伴Cirrus大力支持下,維護和操作公司租賃的飛機用於包機服務,當客戶通過其平台預訂航班時,公司將依賴第三方運營商。公司和Cirrus都積極地爲公司的飛機預訂包機服務。Cirrus通過其24小時包機部門預訂包機,公司通過其應用程序預訂包機。這些第三方未能正確履行這些角色可能導致公司聲譽受損、客戶流失、可能的訴訟和其他成本。公司也可能在工作中遇到延遲、缺陷、錯誤或其他問題,這可能對其業績和實現盈利能力產生不利影響。
公司可能沒有足夠的所有基金類型來維持業務,直到盈利爲止。
公司可能無法準確預測資金的使用速度以及這些資金是否足以使業務盈利。
航空 業務往往受到影響遠非他們所控制的因素,包括:機場空中交通擁堵;機場航班時刻限制; 空中交通管制效率低下;自然災害;惡劣天氣條件,如颶風或暴風雪;安全措施的增加和變化 ;變化的監管和政府要求;旅行相關稅收新設立或變更;或疾病爆發; 其中任何一項都可能對公司的業務、運營結果和財務狀況產生重大不利影響。
喜歡 其他航空公司,該公司的業務受到其無法控制的因素的影響,包括空中交通擁堵 機場、機場時段限制、空中交通管制效率低下、自然災害、惡劣天氣條件、增加和 更改安全措施、不斷變化的監管和政府要求、新的或變更的旅行相關稅收或疫情 疾病的。導致航班延誤的因素會使乘客感到沮喪,增加運營成本並減少收入,這反過來可能會 對盈利能力產生不利影響。在美國,聯邦政府單獨控制所有美國空域和航空運營商 完全依賴於美國聯邦航空管理局(”聯邦法奧”) 在安全的環境中操作該空域, 高效且負擔得起的方式。由美國聯邦航空局運營的空中交通管制系統在管理不斷增長的空中交通管制系統方面面臨挑戰 對美國航空旅行的需求。美國空中交通管制員經常依賴過時的技術,這些技術通常會使系統不堪重負 迫使航空運營商使用效率低下的間接航線,導致延誤和運營成本增加。此外,還有 目前正在國會面前提出的可能導致美國空中交通管制私有化的提案 系統,這可能會對公司的業務產生不利影響。
極端的天氣條件和自然災害,例如颶風、冬季暴雪或地震,可能導致航班取消或顯著延誤。由於極端天氣條件或自然災害、空中交通管制問題或低效、安防半導體問題或其他因素導致的取消或延誤,可能對公司產生比競爭對手更大的影響,後者可能能夠更快地從這些事件中恢復,因此可能對公司的業務、運營結果和財務狀況產生重大不利影響,其程度可能超過其他航空公司。乘客流量的普遍減少可能對公司的業務、運營結果和財務狀況產生重大不利影響。
飛機的運營受到各種風險的影響,未能保持良好的安全記錄可能對我們獲取和保留客戶產生不利影響。
飛機的運營受到各種風險的影響,包括災難性災難、墜機、機械故障和碰撞,可能導致生命、人身傷害和/或財產和設備損失。公司未來可能發生事故。這些風險可能危及其客戶、人員、第三方、設備、貨物和其他財產的安全(包括公司和第三方的財產),以及環境。如果發生任何這些事件,公司可能會遭遇營業收入損失、客戶合同終止、更高的保險費率、訴訟、監管調查和執法行動(包括可能暫停公司機隊飛行和暫停或吊銷其運營許可)、以及對聲譽和客戶關係的損害。此外,如果發生公司運營或包機的飛機事故,公司可能需要承擔相應的損失,這可能涉及受傷乘客和罹難乘客的索賠。無法保證公司在發生此類損失時所能獲得的保險覆蓋金額足以彌補此類損失,或者公司不會被迫承擔此類事件造成的重大損失,無論其保險覆蓋情況如何。

此外,任何飛機事故或事件,即使完全投保,無論涉及公司還是其他私人飛機運營商,都可能導致公衆認爲公司比其他私人飛機運營商不安全或不可靠,從而導致客戶失去信心並轉向其他私人飛機運營商或其他運輸方式。此外,任何飛機事故或事件,無論涉及公司還是其他私人飛機運營商,也可能影響公衆對行業安全的看法,從而降低客戶的信任度。
公司需要承擔相當大的成本來維護其(i)安全計劃、(ii)培訓計劃和(iii)飛機機隊的質量。公司無法保證這些成本不會增加。同樣,公司無法保證其努力會提供足夠水平的安全性或可接受的安全記錄。如果公司無法保持可接受的安全記錄,公司可能無法保留現有客戶或吸引新客戶,這可能對其業務、財務狀況和運營成果產生重大負面影響。
航空行業的飛行員供應有限,可能對公司的運營和財務狀況產生負面影響。 勞工成本的增加可能對公司的業務、運營結果和財務狀況產生不利影響。
公司的飛行員必須符合嚴格的飛行員資格和機組成員飛行訓練標準,其中包括飛行員的最低飛行時間要求和規定的嚴格規則以減少飛行員的疲勞。這些要求的存在有效限制了合格飛行員候選人的供應,增加了飛行員薪水和相關勞動成本。飛行員短缺將要求公司進一步增加勞動成本,這將導致其收入的實質性減少。此類要求還影響飛行員的排班、工作時間和公司運營所需飛行員的數量。
此外,如果無法及時培訓飛行員,公司的運營和財務狀況可能會受到負面影響。由於行業板塊內合格飛行員短缺,受美國聯邦航空局資質標準下的飛行小時要求以及其他行業參與者的招聘需求導致,飛行員培訓時間明顯延長,飛行模擬器、教練和相關培訓設備的供應出現緊張。因此,公司飛行員的培訓可能無法以成本效率或足夠及時的方式完成,以支持公司的運營需求。
飛行員流失可能對公司的運營和財務狀況產生負面影響。
近年來,公司發現飛行員的流失率出現了顯著波動,這是由於其他行業參與者提高飛行員工資和獎金以及貨運、低成本和超低成本航空公司的增長。如果流失率高於替代飛行員的數量,公司的運營和財務業績可能會受到重大不利影響。
公司由於維護工作而暴露於運營中斷。
公司的機隊需要定期維護工作,可能會造成業務中斷。公司無法及時進行維護和修理可能導致其飛機利用率降低,對其業務、財務狀況和運營結果產生不利影響。偶爾,機身製造商和/或監管機構要求針對特定機隊進行強制或建議性修改,可能意味着需要停飛特定類型的飛機。這可能會導致公司的業務中斷,並對公司造成重大成本。此外,隨着公司的飛機基數增加,維護成本可能會潛在增加。
法律或法規的變化,或者未能遵守任何法律或法規,可能會對我們的業務、投資和經營結果產生不利影響。
我們需遵守由國家、區域和地方政府制定的法律法規。公司的業務受到FAA、運輸安全管理局以及"了解您的客戶"義務和其他法律法規的重大監管。關於公司產品或服務銷售的法律法規可能會發生變化,如果發生變化,公司產品或服務的銷售可能不再可行或盈利。此外,我們還需遵守特定的證券交易委員會和其他法律要求。遵守和監督適用的法律法規可能是困難的、耗時的和昂貴的。這些法律法規及其解釋和應用也可能不時發生變化,這些變化可能對我們的業務、投資和運營結果產生重大不利影響。此外,不遵守適用的法律法規(根據解釋和適用)可能對我們的業務和運營結果產生重大不利影響。

與我們的股票相關的風險
如果我們未能遵守納斯達克的繼續上市要求,我們可能面臨被除牌的風險,這將導致我們的股票在公開市場上受限,限制我們利用現有流動性設施的能力,並且對我們而言獲得未來融資將更加困難。
在2023年12月1日,公司收到了納斯達克納斯達克上市資格部門發送的首次通知函(“首次通知函”通知公司其股東權益金額已降至1000萬美元以下(“最低股東權益要求”)。公司截至2023年12月31日的股東虧損金額爲(3,963,039)美元。首次通知函還指出,截至2023年9月30日,公司未達到納斯達克全球市場的替代上市標準,包括「市值」標準或「總資產/總收入」標準。首次通知函進一步指出,公司可能考慮申請將公司證券轉至納斯達克資本市場,這將要求公司在其他事項之外,符合納斯達克的持續上市要求。2024年8月14日,納斯達克聽證會小組批准了公司將公司證券從納斯達克全球市場轉至納斯達克資本市場的請求,生效日期爲2024年8月16日開盤交易時。
2024年4月14日,公司收到了一封來自納斯達克的額外通知函,稱公司未符合納斯達克5450(a)(1)上市規則,因公司的A類普通股最低買盤價連續30個工作日低於1.00美元(“最低 買盤價格要求”。不符合規定的通知對公司普通股在納斯達克上市或交易沒有立即影響。公司有180個日曆日,即至2024年10月14日之前,恢復符合最低買盤價格要求。爲了恢復符合,公司普通股的最低買盤價必須在這180個日曆日寬限期內連續10個工作日達到或超過1.00美元每股。若公司在2024年10月14日之前未恢復符合最低買盤價格要求,公司可能有資格獲得額外的180個日曆日符合期,因爲其選擇轉至納斯達克資本市場。要符合條件,公司需要符合公開持股市值和納斯達克資本市場的所有其他最初上市標準,除了買盤價格要求,還需要提供書面通知表明其打算在第二符合期間糾正買盤價不足。公司在此期間未能恢復符合可能導致退市。公司打算積極監控其普通股的買盤價,並在適當情況下考慮實施可用的選項以恢復符合最低買盤價格要求。
開啓 2024 年 5 月 30 日,公司收到了來自納斯達克的另一封通知信(”第三封通知信”) 表示該公司尚未恢復遵守繼續上市的最低股東權益要求 初始通知信中對此進行了討論,根據其合規計劃,它必須在2024年5月29日之前開會。第三次通知 信中通知公司,除非公司要求納斯達克聽證會小組舉行上訴聽證會(”小組”) 到2024年6月6日,公司普通股將在2024年6月10日開業時暫停交易,並附上表格 25-NSE將向美國證券交易委員會提交,美國證券交易委員會將取消該公司的證券在納斯達克的上市和註冊(此類通知, 這個”退市通知”).
根據第三封通知函的指示,公司及時請求在全球貨幣上市公司(The Nasdaq Global Market)的股票從納斯達克全球市場(The Nasdaq Global Market)轉至納斯達克資本市場(The Nasdaq Capital Market)的日期將在2024年8月16日股市開市前生效。委員會還同意公司有至2024年11月26日展示其以前提交的計劃達標成爲可能的期限。公司正在努力解決終止上市通知書中闡明的不足,並計劃儘快恢復符合繼續上市的要求。
S-9 |
儘管公司相信自己能夠符合納斯達克的持續上市要求,但無法保證公司將能夠恢復符合所有適用要求或保持符合任何其他上市要求,尤其是因爲公司的股票已在持續時間內交易低於1.00美元。納斯達克判定我們未能符合納斯達克持續上市標準可能導致我們的證券根據除牌通知被納斯達克除牌。
我們的普通股退市及無法在其他國家證券市場上市可能會對我們產生負面影響:(i)減少我們普通股的流動性和市場價格;(ii)減少願意持有或收購我們普通股的投資者數量,可能對我們籌集股權融資的能力造成負面影響;(iii)限制我們使用某些註冊聲明進行自由買賣證券的能力,從而限制我們進入公開資本市場的能力;和 (iv)損害我們向員工提供股權激勵的能力。投資者普遍認爲我們存在被退市風險的看法也可能對我們證券的市場價格和普通股的交易量產生負面影響。
公司從未向其股本支付現金分紅,而且公司也不預計在可預見的未來支付分紅派息。
公司從未對其股本支付現金分紅,並目前打算保留任何未來收益用於支持其業務的增長,除了其優先股上的強制性分紅支付,受特拉華州法律約束。未來決定是否支付股息將由董事會自行決定,並取決於公司的財務狀況、營運業績、資本需求、一般業務情況以及董事會認爲相關的其他因素。因此,在可預見的未來,公司普通股可能唯一的收益來源將是資本增值。
如果證券或行業分析師不發佈或停止發佈有關公司、其業務或市場的研究或報告, 或者如果他們對普通股的推薦發生不利變化,普通股的價格和成交量可能會下跌。
普通股票的交易市場,將會受到行業或證券分析師可能發表的有關公司、業務、市場或競爭對手的研究和報告的影響。如果任何可能覆蓋公司的分析師們改變對普通股不利的推薦,或者對競爭對手提供更有利的相對推薦,那麼普通股票的價格很可能會下跌。如果覆蓋公司的任何分析師停止覆蓋或者未能定期發佈有關公司的報告,我們可能會在金融市場上失去曝光度,這可能會導致公司證券的股價或成交量下降。
公司的股價可能會波動,您可能無法以購買股票時的價格賣出股票,也可能無法在權證到期時獲得任何價值。
普通股價格的波動可能導致您的全部或部分投資損失。如果我們的證券有一個活躍的市場並持續存在,普通股的交易價格可能會波動,並對各種因素做出不同程度的反應,其中一些因素超出我們的控制。

廣泛的市場和行業因素可能會嚴重影響我們證券的市場價格,無論我們的運營表現如何。總體上股票市場和納斯達克已經經歷了價格和成交量的波動,這些波動通常與受影響的特定公司的運營績效無關或不成比例。這些股票和我們證券的交易價格和估值可能難以預測。投資者對零售股票市場或被視爲與公司相似的其他公司股票的信心減退可能導致我們的股價下跌,而與我們的業務、前景、財務狀況或運營結果無關。公司證券的市場價格下跌還可能對其發行額外證券的能力以及未來融資能力造成不利影響。

如果您投資於我們的普通股,您的所有權利益將因本次公開發行價格與本次發行後每股經過調整的淨有形資產賬面價值之間的差額而被稀釋。我們通過將有形資產減去總負債得出淨有形資產賬面價值,再除以我們的普通股的流通股份數來計算每股淨有形資產賬面價值。關於每股淨有形資產賬面價值的稀釋代表本次發行中普通股購買者每股支付金額與本次發行後我們的普通股淨有形資產賬面價值之間的差額。截至2024年6月30日,我們的普通股淨有形資產賬面價值爲-416萬8200美元,即每股普通股約爲-0.283美元。
考慮到以下因素:(i)根據調整後的假設進行,自2024年6月30日以來,共發行28217265股普通股,淨收益爲2299345美元,並自2024年6月30日以來,以非現金形式發行65292568股;(ii)在本次發行中以0.096美元的發行價出售15625000股普通股,並扣除我們應付的放置代理費和預計的發行費用(估計爲130,000美元),假設2024年6月30日,我們調整後的淨有形賬面價值將約爲(-964,170)美元,或約爲0.008美元/股。這代表了每股普通股對我們現有股東的淨有形賬面價值的立即增加約0.012美元,並對此次發行的普通股購買者的調整後的淨有形賬面價值產生了約0.088美元/股的立即攤薄,如下表所示:

Other Rights
The holders of common stock do not have preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. There will be no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of shares of common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of preferred stock that the Company may issue in the future.
Preferred Stock
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
On August 10, 2023, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing the rights, preferences, privileges and other terms relating to the Series A Preferred Shares. The Series A Preferred Shares rank senior to the common stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation. Subject to certain exceptions, so long as any of the Series A Preferred Shares remain outstanding, unless all dividends for all preceding full fiscal quarters have been declared and all accumulated dividends have been paid with respect to the Company’s preferred stock, no dividend or distribution will be declared or paid on, and no redemption or repurchase will be agreed to or consummated of, stock on a parity with the Series A Preferred Shares, common stock, or any other shares of stock junior to the Series A Preferred Shares.
Each of the Series A Preferred Shares has a stated value of the Series A Original Purchase Price (as defined in the Series A Certificate), and holders of the Series A Preferred Shares will be entitled to cumulative dividends at the annual rate of 8% of the liquidation preference, payable quarterly commencing on September 1, 2023. Dividends may be paid in cash or, in whole or in part, in PIK Shares (as defined in the Series A Certificate). If dividends are paid in PIK Shares, the PIK Shares will be valued at the closing price of such securities on the trading day prior to the date the dividend is declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the Company, to the extent the payment of dividends is permitted under Delaware law, for the foreseeable future, to pay dividends in PIK Shares.
S-16 |
Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares have the right to vote on matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Stock on an as-converted basis unless required by applicable law. Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares will be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of votes such holder would have had if all Series A Preferred Shares held by such holder had been converted into shares of common stock. So long as any of the Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares constituting at least 90% of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, voting together as a separate class, will be necessary to: (i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Series A Certificate if such amendment, alteration or repeal would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Preferred Shares so as to affect them adversely; (ii) create, or authorize the creation of, or issue any series of Series A Dividend Senior Stock, or reclassify any class or series of capital stock into any series of Series A Dividend Senior Stock (as defined in the Series A Certificate); (iii) purchase or redeem, or permit any subsidiary of the Company to purchase or redeem, any shares of any Series A Dividend Junior Stock, Series A Liquidation Junior Stock, Series A Qualifying Merger Junior Stock or Series A Qualifying Sale Junior Stock (each as defined in the Series A Certificate), other than repurchases of shares of such capital stock from former directors, officers, employees, consultants or other persons performing services for the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in connection with the cessation of employment or service and for a purchase price per share of such capital stock not exceeding the original purchase price thereof; (iv) incur, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to incur, or issue, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to issue, any indebtedness for borrowed money (except payables and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s business), including obligations (whether or not contingent), under guaranties, or loans or debt securities, including equity-linked or convertible debt securities that, in total, results in gross proceeds to the Company of $20.0 million or greater; (v) declare or pay any cash dividend on any Series A Dividend Junior Stock; or (vi) enter into, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to enter into, any agreement, arrangement or understanding providing for any of the foregoing actions.
Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares may convert their Series A Preferred Shares at any time into a number of shares of common stock equal to the Series A Conversion Price (as defined in the Series A Certificate); provided, however, in no event shall outstanding Series A Preferred Shares be converted into more than 19.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.
The Company may, subject to certain conditions, cause the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares to be redeemed in cash at the “Series A Redemption Price” which is the Series A Original Purchase Price, subject to certain adjustments, plus the aggregate amount of dividends then accrued and unpaid on such Series A Preferred Shares. The Company was required to redeem all the Series A Preferred Shares that remain outstanding as of the one-year anniversary of the original issue date; however, the outside date for redemption was automatically extended by an additional three (3) month period because the Company has not closed upon one or more equity financings that, in total, result in gross proceeds to the Company of $10 million or greater. If the Company raises equity capital, 15% of the proceeds net of expenses must be used to pay the redemption price on the Series A Preferred Shares.
In July 2024 the Company and Maxim entered into an amendment a settlement agreement relating to the Company’s initial public offering whereby the Company and Maxim agreed to, among other things, amend the definition of the “Series A Conversion Price” for the Series A Preferred Shares and certain restrictions with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock Maxim may acquire upon the conversion of its Series A Preferred Shares.
Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock
On August 10, 2023, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation of the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A-1 Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing the rights, preferences, privileges and other terms relating to the Series A-1 Preferred Shares. The Series A-1 Preferred Shares ranks senior to the common stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation but junior to the Series A Preferred Shares. Subject to certain exceptions, so long as any Series A-1 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, unless all dividends for all preceding full fiscal quarters have been declared and all accumulated dividends have been paid with respect to the Company’s preferred stock, no dividend or distribution will be declared or paid on, and no redemption or repurchase will be agreed to or consummated of, stock on a parity with the Series A-1 Preferred Shares, common stock or any other shares of stock junior to the Series A-1 Preferred Shares.
S-17 |
Each of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares has a stated value equal to the Series A-1 Original Purchase Price (as defined in the Series A-1 Certificate), and commencing on the six month anniversary of the original issuance date the Series A-1 Preferred Shares, holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares will be entitled to cumulative dividends at the annual rate of 5% of the liquidation preference, payable quarterly commencing on and including April 1, 2024 (but, with respect to any Series A-1 Preferred Shares outstanding on or after the six month anniversary date of their original issuance date, dividends will be deemed to have accrued as of August 10, 2023).
Holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares have the right to vote on matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Stock on an as-converted basis unless required by applicable law. Holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares will be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of votes such holder would have had if all of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares held by such holder had been converted into shares of common stock. So long as any of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares are outstanding, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of the Series A-1 Shares of at least 90% of the outstanding Series A-1 Preferred Shares, voting together as a separate class, will be necessary to: (i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Series A-1 Certificate if such amendment, alteration or repeal would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares so as to affect them adversely; (ii) create, or authorize the creation of, or issue any series of Series A-1 Dividend Senior Stock Price (as defined in the Series A-1 Certificate), or reclassify any class or series of capital stock into any series of Series A-1 Dividend Senior Stock; (iii) purchase or redeem, or permit any subsidiary of the Company to purchase or redeem, any shares of any Series A-1 Dividend Junior Stock, Series A-1 Liquidation Junior Stock, Series A-1 Qualifying Merger Junior Stock or Series A-1 Qualifying Sale Junior Stock Price (each as defined in the Series A-1 Certificate), other than repurchases of shares of such capital stock from former directors, officers, employees, consultants or other persons performing services for the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in connection with the cessation of employment or service and for a purchase price per share of such capital stock not exceeding the original purchase price thereof; (iv) incur, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to incur, or issue, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to issue, any indebtedness for borrowed money (except payables and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s business), including obligations (whether or not contingent), under guaranties, or loans or debt securities, including equity-linked or convertible debt securities that, in total, results in gross proceeds to the Company of $20 million or greater; (v) declare or pay any cash dividend on any Series A-1 Dividend Junior Stock; or (vi) enter into, or permit the Company’s subsidiaries to enter into, any agreement, arrangement or understanding providing for any of the foregoing actions.
Holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares may convert their Series A-1 Preferred Shares at any time into a number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient of the Series A-1 Original Purchase Price divided by the Series A-1 Conversion Price (as defined in the Series A-1 Certificate); provided, however, in no event shall outstanding Series A-1 Preferred Shares be converted into more than 19.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.
The Company may, subject to certain conditions, cause the outstanding Series A-1 Preferred Shares to be redeemed in cash at the “Series A-1 Redemption Price” which is the Series A-1 Original Purchase Price, subject to certain adjustments, plus the aggregate amount of dividends then accrued and unpaid on such Series A-1 Preferred Shares. The Company was required to redeem all of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding as of the one-year anniversary of the original issue date; however, the outside date for redemption was automatically extended by an additional three (3) month period because the Company has not closed upon one or more equity financings that, in total, result in gross proceeds to the Company of $10 million or greater. If the Company raises equity capital, 15% of the proceeds net of expenses must be used to pay the redemption price on the Series A Preferred Shares and an additional 15% of the proceeds net of expenses must be used to pay the redemption price on the Series A-1 Preferred Shares.
Series B Preferred Stock
On March 28, 2024, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations of the Series B Preferred Shares (the “Series B Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, establishing the rights, preferences, privileges and other terms relating to the Series B Preferred Shares. The Series B Preferred Shares rank pari passu with the Series A Preferred Shares and Series A-1 Preferred Shares and senior to all other capital stock of the Company.
S-18 |
Each of the Series B Preferred Shares converts into a number of shares of our common stock, subject to certain limitations, including a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% (calculated in accordance with the rules promulgated under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), which can be adjusted to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% upon 61 days prior written notice by Ionic. Prior to such conversion approval, we may not convert the Series B Preferred Shares into shares of common stock if, as a result of such conversion, the number of shares of common stock to be issued exceeds 19.9% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.
Subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding paragraph and provided there is an effective registration statement covering Ionic’s resale of common stock underlying the Series B Preferred Shares, the Series B Preferred Shares will automatically convert into shares of common stock on or prior to the tenth trading day after the issuance date of such Series B Preferred Shares. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of each of the Series B Preferred Shares is calculated by dividing the conversion amount per share of Series B Preferred Shares by the then conversion price. The conversion amount is equal to the stated value of the Series B Preferred Shares, which is $10,000, plus any additional amounts and late charges calculated in accordance with the Series B Certificate. The conversion price is equal to 90% (or, in the case of a delisting, 80%) of the lowest daily VWAP of our common stock over a period beginning on the trading day after we deliver shares of common stock upon such conversion to Ionic and ending on the trading day on which the aggregate dollar trading volume of our common stock exceeds seven times the applicable conversion amount, subject to a five trading day minimum period for such calculation, and subject to certain adjustments.
If certain defined “triggering events” defined in the Series B Certificate occur, such as a breach of the Ionic Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Series B Certificate), suspension of trading, or our failure to convert the Series B Preferred Shares into common stock when a conversion right is exercised, then we may be required to redeem the Series B Preferred Shares for cash at 110% of the stated value.
Warrants
Ionic Warrant
The Ionic Warrant entitles Ionic to purchase up to 1,500 Series B Preferred Shares, provided any such exercise shall be for a minimum of fifty (50) Series B Preferred Shares. The Ionic Warrant exercise price is initially set at $10,000 per share of the Series B Preferred Shares, subject to adjustment for certain events, such as stock split, issuance of additional shares as a dividend or otherwise. The Ionic Warrant has a term of two years. At any time when the Ionic Warrant is exercisable for less than 1,000 of the Series B Preferred Shares, the Company shall have the right to redeem all or a portion of the Ionic Warrant by paying to the holder an amount in cash equal to $100 per share of Series B Preferred Shares that would otherwise be issuable pursuant to the Ionic Warrant.
GEM Warrant
The GEM Warrant entitles GEM to purchase up to 6% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis as of the date of listing. The GEM Warrant has a term of three years. The exercise price of the GEM Warrant, as of June 30, 2024, was $5.81 per share; provided, that, if the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days following the first anniversary of the date of listing is less than 90% of the then current exercise price of the GEM Warrant (the “Reset Event”), then the exercise price of the GEM Warrant will be adjusted to 110% of our then current trading price. Given that the Reset Event occurred, the revised exercise price of the GEM Warrant is $0.24. The warrant may be exercised by payment of the per share amount in cash or through a cashless exercise.
The GEM Warrant provides that GEM can elect to limit the exercisability of the GEM Warrant such that it is not exercisable to the extent that, after giving effect to the exercise, GEM and its affiliates, to the Company’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. GEM has made this election, which makes funds available in excess of this 4.99% ownership limit up to a 9.99% ownership restriction. GEM may revoke this election by providing written notice, which revocation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day thereafter.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Jet.AI,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or “our company” in this prospectus refer to Jet AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries together.
Jet.AI Inc. was formed on June 4, 2018 in the State of Delaware and is now headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada. On August 10, 2023, we consummated a business combination pursuant to which Jet Token Inc. (“Jet Token”) combined with Oxbridge Acquisition Corp. (“Oxbridge”), a special purpose acquisition company and in connection with that transaction the combined company was renamed Jet.AI Inc.
We are a private air charter company that develops innovative artificial intelligence (“AI”) technology to facilitate access to travel by private aircraft travel through our iOS and Android charter booking app, CharterGPT (“CharterGPT”), and our B2B software platform (the “Jet.AI Operator Platform”), which provides a suite of software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) products that we offer aircraft owners and operators. We strive to streamline and enhance the aviation experience for both operators and customers by leveraging advanced natural language processing and advanced fleet logistics optimizations.
Our business strategy combines concepts from fractional jet ownership programs and aviation jet membership cards with AI innovations. Our CharterGPT app uses natural language processing and machine learning to improve the private jet booking experience, which is advanced by CharterGPT’s direct connection via our application programming interface (“API”) to Avinode, one of the largest centralized databases for charter services in the private-aviation industry. CharterGPT receives users’ requests for private-aircraft travel, connects users to private-charter operators who have posted their aircraft for hire, displays a variety of charter booking options at a range of prices drawn from thousands of aircraft listings on the Avinode platform along with pricing for our own fleet of four aircraft, and facilitates communication, contract exchange, and payment between the user and the operator of the aircraft ultimately selected for travel.

Our Jet.AI Operation Platform currently consists of the following SaaS products:
● | Reroute AI. Our newest SaaS product, Reroute AI, is web-based and enables Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) Part 135 operators to earn revenue on otherwise empty flight legs. When prompted with basic travel itinerary information, Reroute AI searches its database of empty flight legs and proposes combinations or adjustments of those legs that meet the constraints provided. The Company generates revenue each time an operator wishes to book an itinerary proposed by Reroute AI that uses a third-party operator’s aircraft. |
● | DynoFlight. DynoFlight is a software API that enables small- to medium-sized aircraft operators to track and estimate their emissions and then to offset their emissions by purchasing carbon-offset credits via our DynoFlight API. |
● | Flight Club. Our Flight Club API enables FAA Part 135 operators to function simultaneously under FAA Part 380, which permits private jet services to be sold by the seat rather than the whole aircraft. The Flight Club software integrates front-end ticketing and payment collection with the flight management systems of an FAA Part 135 operator. We operate Flight Club through 380 Software LLC, a subsidiary owned 50/50 by us and by Great Western Air, LLC d/b/a Cirrus Aviation Services, LLC (“Cirrus”), the largest private jet charter company in Nevada. We currently limit our use of Flight Club to our partnership with the Las Vegas Golden Knights, but we may expand the availability of Flight Club in the future. |
We currently have a fleet of five aircraft, including three HondaJet HA-420 aircraft (the “HondaJet Elites”), one Citation CJ4 Gen 2 and one King Air 350i. The three HondaJet Elites are managed, operated, and maintained by Cirrus pursuant to an Executive Aircraft Management and Charter Services Agreement in compliance with all applicable FAA regulations and certification requirements. The Citation CJ4 Gen 2 and King Air 350i in our fleet are owned by customers and managed through our OnBoard Program, which allows aircraft owners to contribute their aircraft to our charter and jet-card inventory after they have completed certain FAA certifications and requirements.
We offer the following programs for our HondaJet Elite aircraft:
● | Fractional Ownership Program. This program provides potential owners the ability to purchase a share in a jet at a fraction of the cost of acquiring an entire aircraft. Each 1/5 share guarantees 75 occupied hours of usage per year with 24 hours of notice. As part of the aircraft purchase agreement, the buyer enters into a three-year aircraft management agreement, after which the aircraft is typically sold, and the owners are given their pro-rata share of the sale proceeds. |
● | Jet Card Program. A membership in our jet card program generally includes 10, 25 or 50 occupied hours of usage per year with 24 hours of notice. Members generally pay 100% upfront and then fly for a fixed hourly rate over the next twelve months. Those who require guaranteed availability may pay a membership fee for an additional charge. Jet card program members may interchange as a set ratio per aircraft onto any one of twenty jets operated by our partner, Cirrus. |
In addition to servicing members, fractional owners, and third-party charter clients, our HondaJet Elites are available to address unexpected cancellations or delays on brokered charters. Our ability to maintain a fleet of readily available aircraft to backfill third-party charter services gives us a competitive edge by providing more reliability than our competitors and is an attractive selling point for potential clients.

Please see the risk factors under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, on file with the SEC, and those risk factors identified in reports subsequently filed with the SEC, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference into this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. 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. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. The discussion of risks includes or refers to forward-looking statements; you should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed elsewhere in this prospectus.
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including any projections of financing needs, revenue, expenses, earnings or losses from operations, or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning our products and services and timelines; any statements of expectation or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. In addition, forward looking statements may contain the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will result,” “seek,” “could,” “may,” “might,” and similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, or the negative version of those words or phrases or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature.
The forward-looking statements included in this prospectus represent our estimates as of the date of this prospectus. We specifically disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements in the future, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our estimates or views as of any date subsequent to the date of this prospectus.
Except as described in any prospectus supplement and any free writing prospectus in connection with a specific offering, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered under this prospectus for general corporate purposes, including the development and commercialization of our SaaS products, aircraft acquisition, research and development, general and administrative expenses, license or technology acquisitions, and working capital and capital expenditures. We may also use the net proceeds to repay any debts and/or invest in or acquire complementary businesses, products, or technologies, although we have no current commitments or agreements with respect to any such investments or acquisitions as of the date of this prospectus. We have not determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for the foregoing purposes. As a result, our management will have broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of any sale of the securities. Pending use of the net proceeds, we intend to invest the proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.
Each time we offer securities under this prospectus, we will describe the intended use of the net proceeds from that offering in the applicable prospectus supplement. The actual amount of net proceeds we spend on a particular use will depend on many factors, including, our future capital expenditures, the amount of cash required by our operations, and our future revenue growth, if any. Therefore, we will retain broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds.

We may offer, from time to time, in one or more offerings, up to $50,000,000 of the following securities:
● | common stock; |
● | preferred stock; |
● | senior debt securities; |
● | subordinated debt securities; |
● | warrants; |
● | rights; |
● | units; or |
● | any combination of the foregoing securities. |
The aggregate initial offering price of the offered securities that we may issue will not exceed $50,000,000. Until such time as the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the Company is $75.0 million or more, the aggregate market value of securities sold by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this registration statement during the period of 12 calendar months immediately prior to, and including, a sale under this registration statement will be no more than one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the Company. If we issue debt securities at a discount from their principal amount, then, for purposes of calculating the aggregate initial offering price of the offered securities issued under this prospectus, we will include only the initial offering price of the debt securities and not the principal amount of the debt securities.
This prospectus contains a summary of the general terms of the various securities that we may offer. The prospectus supplement relating to any particular securities offered will describe the specific terms of the securities, which may be in addition to or different from the general terms summarized in this prospectus. Because the summary in this prospectus and in any prospectus supplement does not contain all of the information that you may find useful, you should read the documents relating to the securities that are described in this prospectus or in any applicable prospectus supplement. Please read “Where You Can Find More Information” to find out how you can obtain a copy of those documents.
The applicable prospectus supplement will also contain the terms of a given offering, the initial offering price and our net proceeds. Where applicable, a prospectus supplement will also describe any material United States federal income tax consequences relating to the securities offered and indicate whether the securities offered are or will be quoted or listed on any quotation system or securities exchange.
This section describes the general terms and provisions of our common stock. The prospectus supplement relating to any offering of common stock, or other securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common stock, will describe more specific terms of the offering of common stock or other securities, including the number of shares offered, the initial offering price and market price and dividend information. The prospectus supplement may provide information that is different from this prospectus. If the information in the prospectus supplement with respect to our common stock being offered differs from this prospectus, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement.
The summary set forth below does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our certificate of incorporation, dated August 10, 2023 (our “Certificate of Incorporation”), and our bylaws, dated August 10, 2023, as amended by the Amendment to the Bylaws, dated August 5, 2023 (as amended, our “Bylaws”), each of which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We encourage you to read our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws for additional information before you purchase any shares of our common stock. Our common stock and the rights of the holders of our common stock are subject to the applicable statutes of the State of Delaware, our Certificate of Incorporation, and our Bylaws, as amended.

General Terms
We are authorized to issue 55,000,000 shares of common stock. On August 22, 2024, we had 24,576,880 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held by approximately 32,276 holders of record. Except as otherwise provided by any series of preferred stock that may later be created, holders of our common stock have exclusive voting rights for the election of directors and for all other purposes. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by our stockholders. Neither our Certificate of Incorporation nor our Bylaws authorize cumulative voting. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors (our “Board”) out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, subject to the rights of any series of preferred stock. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Jet.AI, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of the preferential amounts, if any, to which the holders of our preferred stock, if any, are entitled. Our common stock has no preemptive, conversion or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking-fund provisions applicable to our common stock. All of our outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
Our Board of Directors
Our Bylaws provide that the number of directors constituting our Board is fixed from time to time in accordance with our Certificate of Incorporation, which provides that, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the total number of directors constituting the Board shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in our Bylaws), or by the sole remaining director.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides for our Board to be divided into three classes of directors serving staggered terms. Approximately one-third of the Board will be elected each year. The provision for a classified Board could prevent a party who acquires control of a majority of our outstanding shares of voting stock from obtaining control of our Board until the second annual stockholders’ meeting following the date the acquirer obtains the controlling stock interest. The classified Board provision could discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us and could increase the likelihood that incumbent directors will retain their positions. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors may only be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, upon any vacancy occurring in the Board for any cause, and any newly created directorship resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors, shall, unless (a) the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders, or (b) as otherwise provided by law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK
We are authorized to issue 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of the date of this prospectus, we have designated three classes of preferred stock, being Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock. We do not intend to offer and sell any of those series of preferred stock pursuant to this prospectus.
The following description of our preferred stock, together with any additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement or any related free writing prospectus, summarizes the material terms and provisions of our preferred stock that we may offer under this prospectus. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any preferred stock that we may offer, we will describe the particular terms of any class or series of these securities in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. For the complete terms of our preferred stock, please refer to our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, and our Certificates of Designation that are incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or may be incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement. The summary set forth below does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, as amended, and our Certificates of Designation, each of which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We encourage you to read our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, as amended, and our Certificates of Designation for additional information before you purchase any shares of our preferred stock. Our preferred stock and the rights of the holders of our preferred stock are subject to the applicable statutes of the State of Delaware, our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, as amended, and our Certificates of Designation.

General Terms
Our Board may, without further action by our stockholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of shares of preferred stock in series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series, including voting rights, dividend rights and redemption and liquidation preferences. Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of outstanding shares of preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of dividends on shares of our common stock (although we do not anticipate paying any dividends to the holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future). Holders of shares of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our Company before any payment is made to the holders of shares of our common stock. In some circumstances, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may render more difficult or tend to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our securities or the removal of incumbent management as discussed below. Upon the affirmative vote of our Board, without stockholder approval, we may issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights that could adversely affect the holders of shares of our common stock.
If we offer a specific series of preferred stock under this prospectus, we will describe the terms of the preferred stock in the prospectus supplement for such offering and will file a copy of the articles of amendment to the Articles establishing the terms of the preferred stock with the SEC. To the extent required, this description will include:
● | the title and stated value; |
● | the number of shares offered, the liquidation preference per share and the purchase price; |
● | the dividend rate(s), period(s) and/or payment date(s), or method(s) of calculation for such dividends; |
● | whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate; |
● | the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any; |
● | the provisions for a sinking fund, if any; |
● | the provisions for redemption, if applicable; |
● | any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or market; |
● | whether the preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock, and, if applicable, the conversion price (or how it will be calculated) and conversion period; |
● | whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the exchange price (or how it will be calculated) and exchange period; |
● | voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock; |
● | a discussion of any material and/or special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock; |
● | the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of Jet.AI; and |
● | any material limitations on issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Jet.AI. |
The preferred stock offered by this prospectus will, when issued, not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights.

Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our preferred stock in the United States will be Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

● | whether the debt securities will be issued in the form of certificated debt securities or global debt securities; |

The indenture and the debt securities are expected to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. We intend to disclose the relevant restrictive covenants for any issuance or series of debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. As of the date of this prospectus, we have no outstanding registered debt securities.
We may issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities or other securities in one or more series together with other securities or separately, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Below is a description of certain general terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer. Particular terms of the warrants will be described in the warrant agreements and the prospectus supplement to the warrants.
The applicable prospectus supplement will contain, where applicable, the following terms of and other information relating to the warrants:
● | the specific designation and aggregate number of, and the price at which we will issue, the warrants; |

● | if applicable, the exercise price for our debt securities, the amount of debt securities to be received upon exercise, and a description of that series of debt securities; |
● | the date on which the right to exercise the warrants will begin and the date on which that right will expire or, if you may not continuously exercise the warrants throughout that period, the specific date or dates on which you may exercise the warrants; |
● | whether the warrants will be issued in fully registered form or bearer form, in definitive or global form or in any combination of these forms, although, in any case, the form of a warrant included in a unit will correspond to the form of the unit and of any security included in that unit; |
● | any applicable material United States federal income tax consequences; |

Exercise of Warrants
Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash that principal amount of, or number of, securities, as the case may be, at the exercise price set forth in, or to be determined as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement relating to the warrants. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void. Upon receipt of payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed, we will, as soon as practicable, issue the securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrant. If less than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining amount of warrants.
8 |
No Rights of Security Holder Prior to Exercise
Before the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants, and will not be entitled to:
● | in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, payments of principal of, or any premium or interest on, the debt securities purchasable upon exercise; or |
● | in the case of warrants to purchase equity securities, the right to vote or to receive dividend payments or similar distributions on the securities purchasable upon exercise. |
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for any warrants will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.
As specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may issue rights to purchase the securities offered in this prospectus to our existing stockholders, and such rights may or may not be issued for consideration. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any such rights. The description in the prospectus supplement will not purport to be complete and will be qualified in its entirety by reference to the documents pursuant to which such rights will be issued.
This section outlines some of the provisions of the units and the unit agreements. This information may not be complete in all respects and is qualified entirely by reference to the unit agreement with respect to the units of any particular series. The specific terms of any series of units will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If so described in a particular supplement, the specific terms of any series of units may differ from the general description of terms presented below.
We may issue units comprised of shares of preferred stock, shares of common stock, warrants and debt securities in any combination. 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.
The applicable prospectus supplement may describe:
● | 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; |
● | the price or prices at which such units will be issued; |
● | the applicable United States federal income tax considerations relating to the units; |
● | any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and |
● | any other terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units. |
The provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Preferred Stock,” “Description of Common Stock,” “Description of Warrants”, “Description of Debt Securities”, and “Description of Rights” will apply to the securities included in each unit, to the extent relevant.
9 |
Issuance in Series
We may issue units in such amounts and in as many distinct series as we wish. This section summarizes terms of the units that apply generally to all series. Most of the financial and other specific terms of any series will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Unit Agreements
We will issue units under one or more unit agreements to be entered into between us and a bank or other financial institution, as unit agent. We may add, replace or terminate unit agents from time to time. We will identify the unit agreement under which each series of units will be issued and the unit agent under that agreement in the applicable prospectus supplement.
The following provisions will generally apply to all unit agreements unless otherwise stated in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Modification Without Consent.
We and the applicable unit agent may amend any unit or unit agreement without the consent of any holder to:
● | cure any ambiguity; any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described below; |
● | correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision; or |
● | make any other change that we believe is necessary or desirable and will not adversely affect the interests of the affected holders in any material respect. |
We do not need any approval to make changes that affect only units to be issued after the changes take effect. We may also make changes that do not adversely affect a particular unit in any material respect, even if they adversely affect other units in a material respect. In those cases, we do not need to obtain the approval of the holder of the unaffected unit; we need only obtain any required approvals from the holders of the affected units.
Modification With Consent.
We may not amend any particular unit or a unit agreement with respect to any particular unit unless we obtain the consent of the holder of that unit, if the amendment would:
● | impair any right of the holder to exercise or enforce any right under a security included in the unit if the terms of that security require the consent of the holder to any changes that would impair the exercise or enforcement of that right; or |
● | reduce the percentage of outstanding units or any series or class the consent of whose holders is required to amend that series or class, or the applicable unit agreement with respect to that series or class, as described below. |
Any other change to a particular unit agreement and the units issued under that agreement would require the following approval:
● | If the change affects only the units of a particular series issued under that agreement, the change must be approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of that series; or |
● | If the change affects the units of more than one series issued under that agreement, it must be approved by the holders of a majority of all outstanding units of all series affected by the change, with the units of all the affected series voting together as one class for this purpose. |
These provisions regarding changes with majority approval also apply to changes affecting any securities issued under a unit agreement, as the governing document.
In each case, the required approval must be given by written consent.
10 |
Unit Agreements Will Not Be Qualified Under Trust Indenture Act.
No unit agreement will be qualified as an indenture, and no unit agent will be required to qualify as a trustee, under the Trust Indenture Act. Therefore, holders of units issued under unit agreements will not have the protections of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to their units.
Mergers and Similar Transactions Permitted; No Restrictive Covenants or Events of Default.
The unit agreements will not restrict our ability to merge or consolidate with, or sell our assets to, another corporation or other entity or to engage in any other transactions. If at any time we merge or consolidate with, or sell our assets substantially as an entirety to, another corporation or other entity, the successor entity will succeed to and assume our obligations under the unit agreements. We will then be relieved of any further obligation under these agreements.
The unit agreements will not include any restrictions on our ability to put liens on our assets, including our interests in our subsidiaries, nor will they restrict our ability to sell our assets. The unit agreements also will not provide for any events of default or remedies upon the occurrence of any events of default.
Payments and Notices.
In making payments and giving notices with respect to our units, we will follow the procedures as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
General
Each of the securities issued under this prospectus will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular purchaser or by one or more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Unless the applicable prospectus supplement provides otherwise, certificated securities in definitive form and global securities will be issued in registered form. Definitive securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or your nominee must physically deliver the securities to the trustee, registrar, paying agent or other agent, as applicable. Global securities name a depositary or its nominee as the owner of the debt securities, units or warrants represented by these global securities. The depositary maintains a computerized system that will reflect each purchaser’s beneficial ownership of the securities through an account maintained by the purchaser with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below.
Registered Global (Book-Entry) Securities
We may issue the securities in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary for the registered global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees.
If not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements.
Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depositary or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants’ accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair such purchasers’ abilities to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.
11 |
So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.
Principal, premium, if any, on and interest payments on debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to warrants or units represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of us, the trustees, the warrant agents, the unit agents or any other agent of ours, agent of the trustees or agent of the warrant agents or unit agents will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests.
We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders on that registered global security, will immediately credit participants’ accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of those participants.
If the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security that had been held by the depositary. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the relevant trustee, warrant agent, unit agent or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary’s instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been held by the depositary.
We may sell the securities in any one or more of the following methods from time to time:
● | directly to investors, directly to agents, or to investors through agents; |
● | through underwriting syndicates led by one or more managing underwriters, or through one or more underwriters acting alone, for resale to the public or investors; |
● | purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its own account; |
● | through a block trade (which may involve crosses) in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; |
12 |
● | in “at the market offerings,” within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise; |
● | transactions not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales or privately negotiated transactions; |
● | exchange distributions and/or secondary distributions; |
● | by delayed delivery contracts or by remarketing firms; |
● | transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives that may or may not be listed on an exchange; or\ |
● | through a combination of any such methods of sale. |
The distribution of the securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions:
● | at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed; |
● | at market prices prevailing at the time of sale; |
● | at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or |
● | at negotiated prices. |
Any of the prices may represent a discount from the prevailing market prices.
Any underwritten offering may be on a best efforts or a firm commitment basis. If underwriters are used in the sale, the securities acquired by the underwriters will be for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including without limitation negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at a varying price determined at the time of sale. The obligations, if any, of the underwriter to purchase any securities will be subject to certain conditions. We may offer the securities to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Subject to certain conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities if any are purchased, other than securities covered by any over-allotment option. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed, reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
If a dealer is used in an offering of securities, we may sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of sale.
We may sell securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, our agent will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We may also sell securities directly to one or more purchasers without using underwriters, dealers or agents.
We may also make direct sales through subscription rights distributed to our stockholders on a pro rata basis, which may or may not be transferable. In any distribution of subscription rights to stockholders, if all of the underlying securities are not subscribed for, we may then sell the unsubscribed securities directly to third parties or may engage the services of one or more underwriters, dealers or agents, including standby underwriters, to sell the unsubscribed securities to third parties.
From time to time, we may offer securities directly to the public, with or without the involvement of agents, underwriters or dealers, and may use the Internet or another electronic bidding or ordering system for the pricing and allocation of the securities. Such a system may allow bidders to participate directly, through electronic access to an auction site, by submitting conditional offers to buy that are subject to acceptance by us and may directly affect the price or other terms at which such securities are sold. Such a bidding or ordering system may present to each bidder, on a real-time basis, relevant information to assist you in making a bid, such as the clearing spread at which the offering would be sold, based on the bids submitted, and whether a bidder’s individual bids would be accepted, pro-rated or rejected. Other pricing methods also may be used. Upon completion of such an auction process, securities will be allocated based on prices bid, terms of bid or other factors. The final offering price at which securities would be sold and the allocation of securities among bidders would be based in whole or in part on the results of the Internet bidding process or auction. Many variations of the Internet auction or pricing and allocation systems are likely to be developed in the future, and we may use such systems in connection with the sale of securities. The specific rules of such an auction would be distributed to potential bidders in an applicable prospectus supplement. If an offering is made using such a bidding or ordering system you should review the auction rules, as described in the prospectus supplement, for a more detailed description of the offering procedures.
13 |
In the sale of the securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of the securities, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profit on the resale of securities they realize may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The applicable prospectus supplement will, where applicable:
● | identify any such underwriter or agent; |
● | describe any compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, commissions or otherwise received from us by each of such underwriter, dealer or agent and in the aggregate to all underwriters, dealers and agents; |
● | identify the purchase price and proceeds from such sale; |
● | identify the amounts underwritten; |
● | identify the nature of the underwriter’s obligation to take the securities; |
● | identify any over-allotment option under which the underwriters may purchase additional securities from us; and |
● | identify any quotation systems or securities exchanges on which the securities may be quoted or listed. |
Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, each series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than the common stock, which is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Any common stock sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement will be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to applicable notices. We may elect to apply for quotation or listing of any other class or series of our securities, on a quotation system or an exchange but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a class or series of our securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or the trading market for, any other class or series of our securities.
In connection with an offering, an underwriter may purchase and sell securities in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in the offering. “Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional securities, if any, from us in the offering. If the underwriters have an over-allotment option to purchase additional securities from us, the underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their over-allotment option or purchasing securities in the open market. In determining the source of securities to close out the covered short position, the underwriters may consider, among other things, the price of securities available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase securities through the over-allotment option. “Naked” short sales are any sales in excess of such option or where the underwriters do not have an over-allotment option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing securities in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the securities in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.
Accordingly, to cover these short sales positions or to otherwise stabilize or maintain the price of the securities, the underwriters may bid for or purchase securities in the open market and may impose penalty bids. If penalty bids are imposed, selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers participating in the offering are reclaimed if securities previously distributed in the offering are repurchased, whether in connection with stabilization transactions or otherwise. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. The impositions of a penalty bid may also affect the price of the securities to the extent that it discourages resale of the securities. The magnitude or effect of any stabilization or other transactions is uncertain. These transactions may be effected on the NYSE American or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
14 |
We do not make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above might have on the price of the securities. In addition, we do not make any representation that underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice at any time.
Under agreements into which we may enter, underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the securities may be entitled to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribution from us to payments which the underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make.
Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.
If indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, securities may also be offered or sold by a “remarketing firm” in connection with a remarketing arrangement contemplated by the terms of the securities. Remarketing firms may act as principals for their own accounts or as agents. The applicable prospectus supplement will identify any remarketing firm and the terms of its agreement, if any, with us. It will also describe the remarketing firm’s compensation. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with the remarketing of the securities.
If indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will authorize underwriters, dealers or other persons acting as our agents to solicit offers by particular institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth in such prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on such future date or dates stated in such prospectus supplement. Each delayed delivery contract will be for an amount no less than, and the aggregate principal amounts of securities sold under delayed delivery contracts shall be not less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Institutions with which such delayed delivery contracts, when authorized, may be made include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions and others, but will in all cases be subject to our approval. The obligations of any purchaser under any such contract will be subject to the conditions that (1) the purchase of the securities shall not at the time of delivery be prohibited under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States to which the purchaser is subject, and (2) if the securities are being sold to underwriters, we shall have sold to the underwriters the total principal amount of the securities less the principal amount thereof covered by the delayed delivery contracts. The underwriters and such other agents will not have any responsibility in respect of the validity or performance of such delayed delivery contracts.
With respect to the sale of any securities under this prospectus, the maximum compensation to be received by any member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or independent broker or dealer is not expected to be greater than eight percent (8%).
To comply with applicable state securities laws, the securities offered by this prospectus will be sold, if necessary, in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, securities may not be sold in some states unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW AND OF OUR
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS
Anti-Takeover Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
In addition to the board of directors’ ability to issue shares of preferred stock, our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws contain other provisions that are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the board of directors and which may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a future takeover or change in control of our company unless such takeover or change in control is approved by our board of directors. These provisions include our classified board of directors as discussed above in “Description of Common Stock – Our Board of Directors” and advance notice procedures for stockholder proposals.
Classified Board.
The provision for a classified board could prevent a party who acquires control of a majority of our outstanding common stock from obtaining control of the board until our second annual stockholders meeting following the date the acquirer obtains the controlling stock interest. The classified board provision could have the effect of discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us and could increase the likelihood that incumbent directors will retain their positions.
15 |
Size of Board and Vacancies.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the total number of directors constituting our board of directors be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in our Bylaws, as amended), or by the sole remaining director. Subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect directors, directors are elected at each annual meeting of stockholders by the vote of a majority of the shares present. Subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, directors can only be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting together as a single class.
Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent.
Our Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the right of our stockholders to act by written consent. Stockholder action must take place at the annual or a special meeting of our stockholders.
Advance Notice Procedures for Stockholder Proposals.
Our Bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our board. Stockholders at our annual meeting may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board or by a stockholder who was a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has given to our secretary timely written notice, in proper form, of the stockholder’s intention to bring that business before the meeting. Although our Bylaws do not give our board the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates or proposals regarding other business to be conducted at a special or annual meeting, our Bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of some business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed or may discourage or defer a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.
Special Meetings of Stockholders.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that special meetings of our stockholders may only be called by the Chairperson of our Board, our Chief Executive Officer or our Board acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the directors then in office, and may not be called by any other person or persons. Only the business stated in the notice for a special meeting will be considered at the special meeting of stockholders.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law
Section 203.
We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Under Section 203, we would generally be prohibited from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:
● | prior to such time, our board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; |
● | upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers, and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or |
● | at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 and 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder. |
16 |
Under Section 203, a “business combination” includes:
● | any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder; |
● | any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder; |
● | any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder, subject to limited exceptions; |
● | any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or |
● | the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation. |
In general, Section 203 defines an interested stockholder as an entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
No Cumulative Voting.
Delaware law prohibits cumulative voting for the election of a corporation’s directors unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation authorizes cumulative voting. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Cumulative voting would allow a minority stockholder to vote a portion or all of its shares for one or more candidates for seats on our board of directors. Without cumulative voting, a minority stockholder will not be able to gain as many seats on our board of directors based on the number of shares of our stock the stockholder holds as compared to the number of seats the stockholder would be able to gain if cumulative voting were permitted. The absence of cumulative voting under our Certificate of Incorporation makes it more difficult for a minority stockholder to gain a seat on our board of directors to influence our board’s decision regarding a takeover.
Amendments to Our Governance Documents.
Delaware law generally provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on a matter is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws requires a greater percentage.
Our Bylaws permit our board of directors to adopt, amend or repeal our Bylaws with the approval of a majority of the directors then in office; provided, however, that the amendment or repeal of Section 2.6 of our Bylaws requires the approval of at least two-thirds of the directors then in office. The stockholders also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal our Bylaws; provided, however, that the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to adopt, amend or repeal any provision of our Bylaws; and provided, further, that if two-thirds of the directors then in office have approved such adoption, amendment or repeal of any provisions of our Bylaws, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required to adopt, amend or repeal any provision of our Bylaws.
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of our stock that may be required by law or our Certificate of Incorporation or any Certificate of Designation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or repeal or adopt any provision inconsistent with Sections 1.2 and 3.1 of Article IV, or Article V, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX, Article X or Article XI (the “Specified Provisions”); provided, further, that if two-thirds of the directors then in office have approved such amendment or repeal of, or any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions.
17 |
The stockholder vote with respect to an amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws would be in addition to any separate class vote that might in the future be required under the terms of any series of preferred stock that might be outstanding at the time such a proposed amendment were submitted to stockholders.
Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Our Certificate of Incorporation limits Jet.AI’s directors’ liability to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL. The DGCL provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability:
● | 對於董事從中獲得不正當個人利益的任何交易; |
● | 對於任何不誠實行爲或遺漏行爲,或涉及故意不端行爲或明知違反法律的情況; |
● | 對任何非法分紅派息或股份贖回; |
● | 對於任何董事違反對公司或股東的忠誠責任。 |
如果DGCL被修改以授權進一步消除或限制董事的個人責任,Jet.AI董事的責任將被消除或限制到DGCL允許的最大程度,如經修改。
根據我們的章程規定,在特拉華法律允許的範圍內,我們將爲因爲董事或董事在我們的請求下作爲任何其他實體的董事或董事服務而發起的訴訟,提供賠償並墊付董事或董事合理發生或遭受的所有費用、責任和損失。根據我們的章程,我們可以購買並維護保險,以保護公司及公司的董事、董事、僱員或代理人或其他公司、合夥企業、合資企業、信託或其他企業的費用、責任或損失,無論我們是否有權根據DGCL規定對這些費用、責任或損失進行賠償。
在此範圍內,如因上述規定而對公司的董事、高級職員或控股人因證券法產生的責任進行賠償,公司已被告知,根據證券法規定,此種賠償是違反公共政策的,因此是不可執行的。如果公司的任何董事、高級職員或控股人在有關注冊證券的事宜中提出要求賠償(除了由公司支付在任何訴訟中已由公司的董事、高級職員或公司的控股人支付的費用之外),則公司將依法律顧問的意見,提交給適當管轄區域的法院,對公司所述賠款是否違反證券法的公共政策問題進行最終裁決。
