RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock and warrants involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following described risks together with all other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision with regard to this offering. If one or more of the following risks occurs, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially harmed, which most likely would result in a decline in the trading price of our common stock and warrants and investors losing part or even all of their investment.

Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition

We have incurred substantial losses to date and could continue to incur such losses.

We have incurred substantial losses since commencing our current business. For the year ended March 31, 2021, we lost approximately $3.5 million without obtaining any commercial revenues and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $58.1 million. In order to achieve and sustain future revenues, we must succeed in our current efforts to commercialize Kush® for treatment of dogs and horses suffering from osteoarthritis. That will require us to produce our products effectively in commercial quantities, establish adequate sales and marketing systems, conduct clinical trials and tests which show the safety and efficacy of Kush® in dogs and horses and gain significant support from veterinarians in the use of our products. We expect to continue to incur losses until such time, if ever, as we succeed in significantly increasing our revenues and cash flow beyond what is necessary to fund our ongoing operations and pay our obligations as they become due. We may never generate revenues sufficient to become profitable or to sustain profitability.

Our auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The report of our independent registered accounting firm that audited our March 31, 2021 and 2020 financial statements included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent primarily upon our continuing to raise sufficient working capital to support our operations until attaining profitability, which may never happen.

If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding, we may have to reduce materially or even discontinue our business.

As of March 31, 2021, we had cash or cash equivalents of $23,578. Accordingly, our ability to commercialize our Kush® products is dependent on our receipt of the net proceeds from our future financings. We anticipate that our cash on hand will be adequate to satisfy operational and capital requirements for the next two months. If we are unable to realize substantial revenues in the near future, we will need to seek additional financing beyond this 21-month period to continue our operations. We also most likely will require additional financing to develop additional new products or to expand into foreign markets.

Along with establishing effective production, marketing, sales and distribution of our Kush® products, we believe that our future capital requirements depend upon the timing and costs of many factors with some of them beyond our control, including our ability to establish an adequate base of veterinarian clinics using our products, costs in obtaining patents and any required regulatory approvals for future products, costs of any future target animal studies, costs related to new product development, costs of finished product inventory, expenses to attract and retain skilled personnel as needed, increased costs related to being a listed public company, and the costs of any future acquisitions of existing companies or IP technologies. There is no assurance that future additional capital will be available to us as needed, or if available upon terms acceptable to us.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry

We have no operating history upon which to base an evaluation of our prospects.

We have had no material commercial operations, since our primary efforts and resources have been directed toward acquiring our technology to produce and sell proprietary products for the animal market. Our lack of an operating history makes an evaluation of our business and prospects very difficult. Our prospects must be considered speculative, especially considering the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in the establishment of an early-stage company. Our ability to operate our business successfully remains unknown and untested. If we cannot commercialize our products effectively, or are significantly delayed or limited in doing so, our business and operations will be harmed substantially, and we may even need to cease operations.

We are substantially dependent upon the success of Kush^® and any failure of Kush^® to achieve market acceptance would harm us significantly.

Our recent efforts and financial resources have primarily been directed toward commercialization of the Kush® products for the treatment of dogs and horses suffering from osteoarthritis. Accordingly, our prospects rely heavily on the successful launch and follow-up marketing of this products. In addition to establishing effective production, marketing, sales, distribution and training for the use of Kush®, we believe its successful commercialization will depend on other material factors including our ability to educate and convince veterinarians and pet owners about the benefits, safety and effectiveness of our Kush® products, the occurrence and severity of any side effects to pets from use of our products, maintaining regulatory compliance and effective quality control for our products, our ability to maintain and enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights, any increased manufacturing costs from third-party contractors or suppliers, and the availability, cost and effectiveness of treatments offered by competitors.

Our products will face significant competition in our industry, and our failure to compete effectively may prevent us from achieving any significant market penetration.

The development and commercialization of animal care products is highly competitive, including significant competition from major pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and specialty animal health medical companies. Our competitors include Zoetis, Inc.; Merck Animal Health, the animal health division of Merck & Co., Inc.; Merial, the animal health division of Sanofi, S.A.; Elanco, the animal health division of Eli Lilly and Company; Bayer Animal Health, the animal health division of Bayer AG; Novartis Animal Health, the animal health division of Novartis AG; Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health; Virbac Group; Ceva Animal Health; Vetaquinol; and Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC. There also are several smaller stage animal health companies which have recently emerged in our industry and are developing therapeutics products that may compete with our products, including Kindred Bio, Aratana Therapeutics, Next Vet, and VetDC.

Since we are an early-stage company with limited operations and financing, virtually all our competitors have substantially more financial, technical and personnel resources than us. Most of them also have established brands and substantial experience in the development, production, regulation and commercialization of animal health care products. Regarding our development of any new products or technology, we also compete with academic institutions, governmental agencies and private organizations that conduct research in the field of animal health medicines. We expect that competition in our industry is based on several factors including primarily product reliability and effectiveness, product pricing, product branding, adequate patent and other IP protection, safety of use, and product availability.

Although for the foreseeable future, our efforts and financial resources will continue to focus on successfully commercializing our Kush® products, our future business strategy plan includes the identification of additional animal care products we may license, acquire or develop, and then commercializing such products into a branded product portfolio along with our Kush® products. Even if we successfully license, acquire or develop such animal care products from our proprietary technology, or acquire any such new products, we may still fail to commercialize them successfully for various reasons, including competitors offering alternative products which are more effective than ours, our discovery of third-party IP rights already covering the products, harmful side effects caused to animals by the products, inability to produce products in commercial quantities at an acceptable cost, or the products not being accepted by veterinarians and pet owners as being safe or effective. If we fail to successfully obtain and commercialize future new animal care products, our business and prospects may be harmed substantially.

We will rely on third parties to conduct studies of our current and new products, and if these third parties do not successfully perform their contracted commitments effectively or substantially fail to meet expected study deadlines, we could be delayed from effectively commercializing our future products.

We entered into a clinical trial services agreement with Colorado State University on November 25, 2020. In the future, we may engage other educational institutions with a veterinary medical curriculum to conduct studies of Kush® and other products to be introduced by us. We expect to have limited control over the timing and resources that such third parties will devote to the studies. Although we must rely on the third parties to conduct our studies, we remain responsible for ensuring any of our studies are conducted in compliance with protocols, regulations and standards set by industry regulatory authorities and commonly referred to as current good clinical practices (“cGCPs”) and good laboratory practices (“GLPs”). These required clinical and laboratory practices include many items regarding the conducting, monitoring, recording and reporting the results of target animal studies to ensure that the data and results of these studies are objective and scientifically credible and accurate.

Our success is highly dependent on the clinical advancement of our products and adverse results in clinical trials and other studies could prevent us from effectively commercializing our future products

There can be no assurance that clinical trials or studies of Kush® and our other products will demonstrate the safety and efficacy of such products in a statistically significant manner. Failure to show efficacy or adverse results in clinical trials or studies could significantly harm our business. While some clinical trials and studies of our product candidates may show indications of safety and efficacy, there can be no assurance that these results will be confirmed in subsequent clinical trials or studies or provide a sufficient basis for regulatory approval, if required. In addition, side effects observed in clinical trials or studies, or other side effects that appear in later clinical trials or studies, may adversely affect our or our distributors’ ability to market and commercialize our products.

Our operations will rely on third parties to produce our raw materials to produce our products.

We will rely on independent third parties to produce the raw materials (e.g. collagen, elastin and heparin) that we use to produce our Kush^® products. As such, we will be dependent upon their services and will not be in a position to control their operations as we might if we directly produced these raw materials. While we believe the raw materials used to manufacture our Kush products are readily available and can be obtained from multiple reliable sources on a timely basis, circumstances outside our control may impair our ability to have an adequate supply of raw materials to produce our Kush products.

If we experience the rapid commercial growth we anticipate, we may not be able to manage such growth effectively.

We contemplate rapid growth for our business as we bring our Kush^® products to market and anticipate that will place significant new demands on our management and our operational and financial resources. Our organizational structure will become more complex as we add additional personnel, and we would likely require more financial and staff resources to support and continue our growth. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially harmed.

We have a limited marketing and sales organization, and if our current marketing and sales personnel are insufficient or inadequate to support the current introduction of our Kush products, we may not be able to sell these products in quantities to become commercially successful.

We have a limited marketing and sales organization, and we have minimal prior experience in the marketing, sale and distribution of pet care products. There are significant risks involved in our building and managing an effective sales organization, including our ability to hire, adequately train, maintain and motivate qualified individuals, generate sufficient sales leads and other contacts, and establish effective product distribution channels. Any failure or substantial delay in the development of our internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities would adversely impact our business and financial condition.

Our business will depend significantly on the sufficiency and effectiveness of our marketing and product promotional programs and incentives.

Due to the highly competitive nature of our industry, we must effectively and efficiently promote and market our products through internet, television and print advertising, social media, and through trade promotions and other incentives to sustain and improve our competitive position in our market. Moreover, from time to time we may have to change our marketing strategies and spending allocations based on responses from our veterinarian customers and pet owners. If our marketing, advertising and trade promotions are not successful to create and sustain consistent revenue growth or fail to respond to marketing strategy changes in our industry, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Any damage to our reputation or our brand may materially harm our business.

Developing, maintaining and expanding our reputation and brand with veterinarians, pet owners and others will be critical to our success. Our brand may suffer if our marketing plans or product initiatives are unsuccessful. The importance of our brand and demand for our products may decrease if competitors offer products with benefits similar to or as effective as our products and at lower costs to consumers. Although we maintain procedures to ensure the quality, safety and integrity of our products and their production processes, we may be unable to detect or prevent product and/or ingredient quality issues such as contamination or deviations from our established procedures. If any of our products cause injury to animals, we may incur material expenses for product recalls, and may be subject to product liability claims, which could damage our reputation and brand substantially.

If we fail to attract and retain qualified management and key scientific personnel, we may be unable to successfully commercialize our current products or develop new products effectively.

Our success will be significantly dependent upon our current management and key scientific technicians, and also on our ability to attract, retain and motivate future management and employees. We are highly dependent upon our current management and technology personnel, and the loss of the services of any of them could delay or prevent the successful commercialization or development of current or future products. Competition to obtain qualified personnel in the animal health field is intense due to the limited number of individuals possessing the skills and experience required by our industry. We may not be able to attract or retain qualified personnel as needed on acceptable terms, or at all, which would harm our business and operations.

Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.

Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, international commerce and the global economy, and thus could have a strong negative effect on us. Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, fire, power shortages, pandemics (including the ongoing Coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic) and other events beyond our control. Although we maintain crisis management and disaster response plans, such events could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver our services to our customers, and could decrease demand for our services.

Risks relating to Manufacturing

We may not be able to manage our manufacturing and supply chain effectively, which would harm our results of operations.

We must accurately forecast demand for our products in order to have adequate product inventory available to fill customer orders timely. Our forecasts will be based on multiple assumptions that may cause our estimates to be inaccurate, and thus affect our ability to ensure adequate manufacturing capability to satisfy product demand. Any material delay in our ability to obtain timely product inventories from our manufacturing facility and our ingredient suppliers could prevent us from satisfying increased consumer demand for our products, resulting in material harm to our brand and business. In addition, we will need to continuously monitor our inventory and product mix against forecasted demand to avoid having inadequate product inventory or having too much product inventory on hand. If we are unable to manage our supply chain effectively, our operating costs may increase materially.

Risks relating to our Intellectual Property

Failure to protect our intellectual property could harm our competitive position or cause us to incur significant expenses and personnel resources to enforce our rights.

Our success will depend significantly upon our ability to protect our intellectual property (“IP”) rights, including patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and process know-how, which valuable assets support our brand and the perception of our products. We rely on patent, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property laws, as well as non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements to protect our intellectual property. Our non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements may not always effectively prevent disclosure of our proprietary IP rights, and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of an unauthorized disclosure of such information, which could harm our competitive position. We also may need to engage in costly litigation to enforce or protect our patent or other proprietary IP rights, or to determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights of others. Any such litigation could require us to expend significant financial resources and also divert the efforts and attention of our management and other personnel from our ongoing business operations. If we fail to protect our intellectual property, our business, brand, financial condition and results of operations may be materially harmed.

We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims, which could result in substantial damages and diversion of the efforts and attention of our management.

We must respect prevailing third-party intellectual property, and the procedures and steps we take to prevent our misappropriation, infringement or other violation of the intellectual property of others may not be successful. If third parties assert infringement claims against us, our suppliers, or veterinarians using our products and technology, we could be required to expend substantial financial and personnel resources to respond to and litigate or settle any such third-party claims. Although we believe our patents, manufacturing processes and products do not infringe in any material respect on the intellectual property rights of other parties, we could be found to infringe on such proprietary rights of others. Any claims that our products, processes or technology infringe on third-party rights, regardless of their merit or resolution could be very costly to us and also materially divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel. Any adverse outcome to us from one or more such claims against us could, among other things, require us to pay substantial damages, to cease the sale of our products, to discontinue our use of any infringing processes or technology, to expend substantial resources to develop non-infringing products or technology, or to license technology from the infringed party. If one or more of such adverse outcomes occur, our ability to compete could be affected significantly and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed substantially.

Risks relating to Regulation

We may be unable to obtain required regulatory approvals for future products timely or at all, and the denial or substantial delay of any such approval could delay materially or even prevent our efforts to commercialize new products, which could adversely impact our ability to generate future revenues.

Based on our determination that our Kush^® products constitute a device for the treatment of animals rather than being a pharmaceutical product, we believe we are not required to obtain regulatory approval to produce and market the Kush® products for their current intended uses. However, we have not received confirmation from any regulatory authority that our determination is correct. The production, marketing and sale of any future products for the treatment of animals based on our proprietary technology may be require us to obtain regulatory approval from the Center for Veterinarian Medicine (“CVM”), a branch of the FDA, and/or the USDA, and also certain state regulatory authorities. Any substantial delay or inability to obtain required regulatory approvals for any new products developed by us could substantially delay or even prevent their commercialization, which would materially adversely impact our business and prospects.

Moreover, at such future time that we commence business internationally, our products will need to obtain regulatory approval for labeling, marketing and sale in foreign countries from authorities such as the European Commission (“EU”) or the European Medicine Agency (“EMA”). Any substantial delay or inability to obtain any necessary foreign regulatory approvals for our products could harm our business and prospects materially.

Risks relating to our Information Technology

A failure of one or more key information technology systems, networks or processes may harm our ability to conduct our business effectively.

The effective operation of our business and operations will depend significantly on our information technology and computer systems. We will rely on these systems to effectively manage our sales and marketing, accounting and financial, and legal and compliance functions, new product development efforts, research and development data, communications, supply chain and product distribution, order entry and fulfillment, and other business processes. Any material failure of our information technology systems to perform satisfactorily, or their damage or interruption from circumstances beyond our control such as power outages or natural disasters, could disrupt our business materially and result in transaction errors, processing inefficiencies, and even the loss of sales and customers., causing our business and results of operations to suffer materially.

Risks Related to this Offering, our Common Stock and Warrants

Ownership and control of our Company is concentrated in our management.

As of the date of this Prospectus, our officers and directors beneficially own or control approximately 54.4% of our outstanding shares of common stock. Following this Offering, our directors and directors will own approximately 44.9% of our common stock, which concentrated ownership and control by our management could adversely affect the status and perception of our common stock and/or warrants. In addition, any material sales of common stock of our management, or even the perception that such sales will occur, could cause a material decline in the trading price of our common stock and/or warrants.

Due to this ownership concentration, our management has the ability to control all matters requiring stockholder approval including the election of all directors, the approval of mergers or acquisitions, and other significant corporate transactions. Any person acquiring our common stock most likely will have no effective voice in the management of our company. This ownership concentration also could delay or prevent a change of control of the Company, which could deprive our stockholders from receiving a premium for their common shares.

There has been no consistent active trading market for our common stock, and public trading or our common stock and warrants may continue to be inactive and fluctuate substantially.

There has never been a consistent active trading market for our common stock. Our common stock currently trades over-the-counter on the QB tier of OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “PETV.” We plan on listing our warrants on the Exchange under the symbol “PETVW.” There is no assurance that the trading market for our common stock and warrants will become more active or liquid. Furthermore, there can be no assurance any broker will be interested in trading our stock or warrants. Therefore, it may be difficult to sell your shares of common stock or warrants if you desire or need to sell them. Our underwriters are not obligated to make a market in our securities, and even if they make a market, they can discontinue market making at any time without notice. Neither we nor the underwriters can provide any assurance that an active and liquid trading market in our securities will develop or, if developed, that such market will continue.

Moreover, the trading price of our common stock has fluctuated substantially over the past few years, and there remains a significant risk that our common stock price may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future in response to various factors, including any material variations in our periodic operating results, departures or additions of management or other key personnel, announcements of acquisitions, mergers, or new technology or patents, new product developments, significant litigation matters, gain or loss of significant customers, significant capital transactions, substantial sales of our common stock in our trading market, and general and specific market and economic conditions.

The market price of our common stock and warrants is likely to be highly volatile because of several factors, including a limited public float.

The market price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and the market price of our common stock and our warrants is likely to be highly volatile in the future. You may not be able to resell shares of our common stock or our warrants following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to volatility.

Other factors that could cause such volatility may include, among other things:

Any of these factors could have a significant and adverse impact on the market price of our common stock and/or warrants. In addition, the stock market in general has at times experienced extreme volatility and rapid decline that has often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and/or warrants, regardless of our actual operating performance.

There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of the Exchange

We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with the requirements for continued listing on the Exchange. Our failure to meet the Exchange listing requirements may result in our common stock and/or warrants being delisted from the Exchange.

Our common stock has in the past been a “penny stock” under SEC rules, and our warrants may be subject to the “penny stock” rules in the future. It may be more difficult to resell securities classified as “penny stock.”

In the past, our common stock was a “penny stock” under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules (generally defined as non-exchange traded stock with a per-share price below $5.00). While our common stock (and trading warrants) will not be considered “penny stocks” following this offering since they will be listed on the Exchange, if we are unable to maintain that listing and our common stock and warrants are no longer listed on the Exchange, unless we maintain a per-share price above $5.00, our common stock and warrants will become “penny stocks.” These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as “established customers” or “accredited investors.” For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

Legal remedies available to an investor in “penny stocks” may include the following:

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock or our warrants and may affect your ability to resell our common stock and our warrants.

Many brokerage firms will discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due, among other reasons, to the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments. For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity. We can give no assurance at what time, if ever, our common stock or our warrants will not be classified as a “penny stock” in the future.

If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, the price of our securities may be adversely affected.

Our internal controls over financial reporting have weaknesses and conditions that require correction or remediation. For the year ended March 31, 2021, we identified three material weakness in our assessment of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures. We have (i) deficiencies in the segregation of duties, (ii) deficiencies in the staffing of our financial accounting department and (iii) limited checks and balances in processing cash and other transactions. We are committed to improving our financial reporting processes and plan on increasing the size of our accounting staff at the appropriate time for our business and its size to ameliorate our concern that we do not effectively segregate certain accounting duties or have adequate staffing, which we believe would resolve these material weakness in disclosure controls and procedures. However, there can be no assurances as to the timing of any such action or that we will be able to do so. Any failure by us to implement the changes necessary to maintain an effective system of internal controls could harm our operating results materially and cause investors and financial analysts to lose confidence in our reported financial information. Any such loss of confidence in the investment community would have a negative effect on the trading and price of our common stock and warrants.

We are required to comply with certain provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and if we fail to continue to comply, our business could be harmed, and the price of our securities could decline.

Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require an annual assessment of internal controls over financial reporting, and for certain issuers, an attestation of this assessment by the issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm. The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal controls over financial reporting as effective are evolving and complex, and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards. We expect to incur significant expenses and to devote resources to Section 404 compliance on an ongoing basis. It is difficult for us to predict how long it will take or costly it will be to complete the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting for each year and to remediate any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we may not be able to complete the assessment and remediation process on a timely basis. In the event that our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer determines that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as defined under Section 404, we cannot predict how regulators will react or how the market prices of our securities will be affected; however, we believe that there is a risk that investor confidence and the market value of our securities may be negatively affected.

Our management has broad discretion over the use of proceeds received by us from this offering and may apply these proceeds in ways that do not improve our operating results or increase the value of your investment.

Our management will retain broad discretion as to the use and allocation of the net proceeds received by us in this offering. Accordingly, our investors will not have any opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial and other relevant information considered by us regarding the application of the net proceeds. Management could apply the proceeds in ways that you would not approve of, and which do not improve our business or increase the value of your investment.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the value of any Units that you purchase from us in this offering.

The price per common share in this public offering is substantially higher than the net tangible book value of each outstanding share of our common stock, and accordingly purchasers of Units in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution. See “Dilution.”

Assuming we obtain an Exchange listing, we will incur material increased costs and become subject to additional regulations and requirements.

As a newly Exchange-listed public company, we will incur material additional legal, accounting and other expenses including recruiting and retaining qualified independent directors, payment of annual Exchange fees, and satisfying Exchange standards for companies listed with it. If we are unable to satisfy our obligations and responsibilities as an Exchange-listed company, we could be subject to delisting of our common stock and warrants from the Exchange and other regulatory action, and potentially even civil litigation.

We do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any such dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any earnings experienced by us will be retained to finance the implementation of our operational business plan and expected future growth.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors and executive officers under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights held by them granted by our bylaws could result in substantial expenditures by us.

Our Articles of Incorporation eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers to the Company and its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty to the maximum extent permissible under Nevada law. In addition, our Bylaws provide that we are obligated to indemnify our directors or officers to the fullest extent authorized by Nevada law for costs or damages incurred by them involving legal proceedings brought against them relating to their positions with the Company. These indemnification obligations could result in our incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against our directors or officers.

Our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Nevada law may have anti-takeover effects that could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control, which may cause our stock price to decline.

Our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Nevada law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if closing such a transaction would be beneficial to our stockholders. We are authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. This preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by our board of directors without further action by stockholders. The terms of any series of preferred stock may include voting rights (including the right to vote as a series on particular matters), preferences as to dividend, liquidation, conversion and redemption rights and sinking fund provisions. None of our preferred stock will be outstanding at the closing of this offering. The issuance of any preferred stock could materially adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock, and therefore, reduce the value of our common stock. In particular, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell our assets to, a third party and thereby preserve control by the present management.

Provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and Nevada law also could have the effect of discouraging potential acquisition proposals or making a tender offer or delaying or preventing a change in control, including changes a stockholder might consider favorable. Such provisions may also prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our management. In particular, our certificate of incorporation and by-laws and Delaware law, as applicable, among other things:

Warrants are speculative in nature.

The warrants offered in this offering do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the warrants may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price of $5.625 per share (125% of the public offering price of a Unit), prior to five (5) years from the date of issuance, after which date any unexercised warrants will expire and have no further value. In addition, there is no established trading market for the warrants and we do not expect a market to develop.

Holders of the warrants will have no rights as a common stockholder until they acquire our common stock.

Until holders of the warrants acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise of the warrants, the holders will have no rights with respect to shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Upon exercise of the warrants, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder as to the security exercised only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise.

There is no established market for the warrants to purchase shares of our common stock being offered in this offering.

There is no established trading market for the warrants and we do not expect a market to develop, and there can be no assurance that there will be an active trading market for the warrants. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the warrants will be limited.

Provisions of the warrants offered by this prospectus could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.

In addition to the discussion of the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws, certain provisions of the warrants offered by this prospectus could make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. The warrants prohibit us from engaging in certain transactions constituting “fundamental transactions” unless, among other things, the surviving entity assumes our obligations under the warrants. These and other provisions of the warrants offered by this prospectus could prevent or deter a third party from acquiring us even where the acquisition could be beneficial to you.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

This prospectus contains estimates, projections and other information concerning our industry, our business and the markets for our drug candidates, including data regarding the estimated size of such markets and the incidence of certain medical conditions. We obtained the industry, market and similar data set forth in this prospectus from our internal estimates and research and from academic and industry research, publications, surveys and studies conducted by third parties, including governmental agencies. In some cases, we do not expressly refer to the sources from which this data is derived. Information that is based on estimates, forecasts, projections, market research or similar methodologies is inherently subject to uncertainties and actual events or circumstances may differ materially from events and circumstances that are assumed in this information. While we believe our internal research is reliable, such research has not been verified by any third party.
