While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any debt securities that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any debt securities that we may offer in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any debt securities offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below. Unless the context requires otherwise, whenever we refer to the indenture, we also are referring to any supplemental indentures that specify the terms of a particular series of debt securities. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">We will issue the debt securities under the indenture that we will enter into with the trustee named in the indenture. The indenture will be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or the Trust Indenture Act. We have filed the form of indenture as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and supplemental indentures and forms of debt securities containing the terms of the debt securities being offered will be filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or will be incorporated by reference from reports that we file with the SEC. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">The following summary of material provisions of the debt securities and the indenture is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the indenture applicable to a particular series of debt securities.

It provides that we may issue debt securities up to the principal amount that we may authorize and may be in any currency or currency unit that we may designate. Except for the limitations on consolidation, merger and sale of all or substantially all of our assets contained in the indenture, the terms of the indenture do not contain any covenants or other provisions designed to give holders of any debt securities protection against changes in our operations, financial condition or transactions involving us. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">We may issue the debt securities issued under the indenture as &#8220;discount securities,&#8221; which means they may be sold at a discount below their stated principal amount. These debt securities, as well as other debt securities that are not issued at a discount, may be issued with &#8220;original issue discount,&#8221; or OID, for U.S. federal income tax purposes because of interest payment and other characteristics or terms of the debt securities.

We describe global securities in greater detail below. We refer to those persons who have securities registered in their own names on the books that we or any applicable trustee, depositary or warrant agent maintain for this purpose as the &#8220;holders&#8221; of those securities. These persons are the legal holders of the securities. We refer to those persons who, indirectly through others, own beneficial interests in securities that are not registered in their own names, as &#8220;indirect holders&#8221; of those securities. As we discuss below, indirect holders are not legal holders, and investors in securities issued in book-entry form or in street name will be indirect holders. </div><div class="BRDSX_h2" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 19pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: left;">Book-Entry Holders </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">We may issue securities in book-entry form only, as we will specify in the applicable prospectus supplement. This means securities may be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a financial institution that holds them as depositary on behalf of other financial institutions that participate in the depositary&#8217;s book-entry system. These participating institutions, which are referred to as participants, in turn, hold beneficial interests in the securities on behalf of themselves or their customers. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Only the person in whose name a security is registered is recognized as the holder of that security. Securities issued in global form will be registered in the name of the depositary or its participants. Consequently, for securities issued in global form, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the securities, and we will make all payments on the securities to the depositary. The depositary passes along the payments it receives to its participants, which in turn pass the payments along to their customers who are the beneficial owners. The depositary and its participants do so under agreements they have made with one another or with their customers; they are not obligated to do so under the terms of the securities. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">As a result, investors in a global security will not own securities directly. Instead, they will own beneficial interests in a global security, through a bank, broker or other financial institution that participates in the depositary&#8217;s book-entry system or holds an interest through a participant. As long as the securities are issued in global form, investors will be indirect holders, and not legal holders, of the securities. </div><div class="BRDSX_h2" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 19pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: left;">Street Name Holders </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">We may terminate a global security or issue securities in non-global form. In these cases, investors may choose to hold their securities in their own names or in &#8220;street name.&#8221; Securities held by an investor in street name would be registered in the name of a bank, broker or other financial institution that the investor chooses, and the investor would hold only a beneficial interest in those securities through an account he or she maintains at that institution. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">For securities held in street name, we or any applicable trustee or depositary will recognize only the intermediary banks, brokers and other financial institutions in whose names the securities are registered as the holders of those securities, and we or any applicable trustee or depositary will make all payments on those securities to them. These institutions pass along the payments they receive to their customers who are the beneficial owners, but only because they agree to do so in their customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. Investors who hold securities in street name will be indirect holders, not holders, of those securities. </div><div class="BRDSX_h2" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 19pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: left;">Legal Holders </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Our obligations, as well as the obligations of any applicable trustee and of any third parties employed by us or a trustee, run only to the legal holders of the securities. We do not have obligations to investors who hold beneficial interests in global securities, in street name or by any other indirect means. This will be the case whether an investor chooses to be an indirect holder of a security or has no choice because we are issuing the securities only in global form. </div><div class="BRDSX_fpara" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: justify;">For example, once we make a payment or give a notice to the legal holder, we have no further responsibility for the payment or notice even if that legal holder is required, under agreements with its participants or customers or by law, to pass it along to the indirect holders but does not do so. Similarly, we may want to obtain the approval of the legal holders to amend an indenture, to relieve us of the consequences of a default or of our obligation to comply with a particular provision of the indenture or for other purposes. In such an event, we would seek approval only from the holders, and not the indirect holders, of the securities. Whether and how the legal holders contact the indirect holders is up to the legal holders. </div></div></div><div class="BRDSX_block-frill" style="width: 468pt; margin-top: 12pt; margin-left: 0pt;"><div class="BRDSX_unknown" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 9.47pt; text-align: center;">22<br></div></div></div>

Under the shelf registration process, we may offer shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $125,000,000 from time to time under this prospectus at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of the offering. </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">We provide information to you about this offering of shares of our common stock in two separate documents that are bound together: (1) this at-the-market sales agreement prospectus, which describes the specific details regarding this offering; and (2) the accompanying base prospectus, which provides general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. Generally, when we refer to this &#8220;prospectus,&#8221; we are referring to both documents combined. If information in this at-the-market sales agreement prospectus is inconsistent with the accompanying base prospectus, you should rely on this prospectus. However, if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date-for example, a document incorporated by reference in this prospectus-the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement as our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since the earlier dates. </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">You should rely only on the information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus and in any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering. We have not, and the Agents have not, authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We are not, and the Agents are not, making an offer to sell or soliciting an offer to buy our securities in any jurisdiction in which an offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making that offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to anyone to whom it is unlawful to make an offer or solicitation. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and in any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering, is accurate only as of the date of those respective documents. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. You should read this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering, in their entirety before making an investment decision. You should also read and consider the information in the documents to which we have referred you in the sections of this prospectus entitled &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information&#8221; and &#8220;Incorporation by Reference.&#8221; </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">We are offering to sell, and seeking offers to buy, shares of common stock only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. The distribution of this prospectus and the offering of the common stock in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons outside the United States who come into possession of this prospectus must inform themselves about, and observe any restrictions relating to, the offering of the common stock and the distribution of this prospectus outside the United States. This prospectus does not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities offered by this prospectus by any person in any jurisdiction in which it is unlawful for such person to make such an offer or solicitation. </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">In this prospectus, the terms &#8220;Opus,&#8221; &#8220;Company,&#8221; &#8220;we,&#8221; &#8220;us,&#8221; &#8220;our&#8221; and similar terms refer to Opus Genetics,&#160;Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">This prospectus and the information incorporated herein or therein by reference include trademarks, service marks and trade names owned by us or other companies.

These forward-looking statements relate to us, our business prospects and our results of operations and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties posed by many factors and events that could cause our actual business, prospects and results of operations to differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, statements concerning our strategic business plans, the applications of our product candidates, ongoing discussions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the &#8220;FDA&#8221;) regarding various of our drug products, and continued drug development and commercialization under our agreement with Viatris, Inc. and those described under the heading &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; included in this prospectus. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;continue,&#8221; &#8220;could,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;expect,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;ongoing,&#8221; &#8220;plan,&#8221; &#8220;potential,&#8221; &#8220;predict,&#8221; &#8220;project,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;would&#8221; or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. We undertake no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that might subsequently arise.

You should carefully consider the specific risks discussed below, together with all the other information in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the caption &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; included in our Annual Report on Form&#160;10-K for the year ended December&#160;31, 2025 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form&#160;10-Q for the periods ended March&#160;31, 2026 and June&#160;30, 2026 and in subsequent filings, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any applicable free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. These risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently view as immaterial, may also impair our business. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.<font style="font-style: normal;"> </font></div><div class="BRDSX_h2" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 12pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: left;">Risks Related to This Offering </div><div class="BRDSX_frisk" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 7pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-align: left;">We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering. </div><div class="BRDSX_para" style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 20pt; text-align: justify;">Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.

The shares sold in this offering, if any, will be sold from time to time at various prices. An increase of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $3.64 per share shown in the table above, assuming $125,000,000 of shares of our common stock is sold at that price, would increase our adjusted net tangible book value per share after the offering to $0.99 per share and would represent an immediate dilution of approximately $2.65 per share to investors in this offering, after deducting commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us. A decrease of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $3.64 per share shown in the table above, assuming $125,000,000 of shares of our common stock is sold at that price, would increase our adjusted net tangible book value per share after the offering to $0.83 per share and would represent an immediate dilution of approximately $2.81 per share to investors in this offering, after deducting commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us.

            allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action, suit, investigation or
            proceeding in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 9(e) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 9(e), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
            or defending any such action, suit, investigation, proceeding or claim to the extent consistent with this Section 9.&#160; Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(e), the Agents shall not be required to contribute any amount in
            excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
            guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9(e), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, any affiliates of an
            Agent, any partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents of such Agent and each person that is controlled by or under common control with such Agent will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each officer and
            director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of
            commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 9(e), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not
            relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 9(e) except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive
            rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9(c) hereof or pursuant to Section 9(d) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with
            respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof. The Agents&#8217; respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9(e) are several in proportion to the

          accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b)
          its obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection (a)), in any
          currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii)
          shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed

          </font></div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt;">The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of a Series if so provided by the terms of such Securities pursuant to Section 2.2 and
          except as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such Series issued pursuant to this Indenture.</div>

          </font></div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt;">The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of the Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a &#8220;<font style="font-style: italic;">mandatory</font>&#160;<font style="font-style: italic;">sinking fund payment</font>&#8221; and any other amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such Series is herein referred to as an &#8220;<font style="font-style: italic;">optional sinking fund payment</font>.&#8221; If

        <div style="text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt;">The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of any Series to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities (1) deliver
          outstanding Securities of such Series to which such sinking fund payment is applicable (other than any of such Securities previously called for mandatory sinking fund redemption) and (2) apply as credit Securities of such Series to which such
          sinking fund payment is applicable and which have been repurchased by the Company or redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Series of Securities (except pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund) or through the
          application of permitted optional sinking fund payments or other optional redemptions pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received by the Trustee,
          together with an Officer&#8217;s Certificate with respect thereto, not later than 15 days prior to the date on which the Trustee begins the process of selecting Securities for redemption, and shall be credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the
          price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities in lieu of cash payments
          pursuant to this Section 11.2, the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such Series for redemption, except
          upon receipt of a Company Order that such action be taken, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Trustee or such
          Paying Agent shall from time to time upon receipt of a Company Order pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that Series
          purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment required to be released to the Company.</div>

          Series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that Series pursuant to Section 11.2, and the optional amount,
          if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days (unless otherwise indicated in the Board Resolution, Officer&#8217;s
          Certificate or supplemental indenture in respect of a particular Series of Securities) before each such sinking fund payment date the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date will be selected in the manner specified in
          Section 3.2 and the Company shall send or cause to be sent a notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in and in accordance with Section 3.3. Such notice having been duly

under the Securities Act, the securities registered pursuant to this
registration statement represent $67,254,761 of unsold securities (the &#8220;Unsold
Securities&#8221;) previously registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form
S-3 (File No. 333-276462), initially filed by the registrant with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on January 10, 2024 and declared effective
on January 23, 2024 (the &#8220;Prior Registration Statement&#8221;). The Prior
Registration Statement registered securities for a maximum aggregate offering
price of $175,000,000, and of that amount the registrant has previously sold
securities for an aggregate offering price of $107,745,239, leaving a balance
of unsold securities with an aggregate offering price of $67,254,761. In
connection with the filing of the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant
paid a filing fee of $25,830.00 associated with the offering of the securities
registered thereunder (based on the filing fee rate in effect at the time of
the filing of the Prior Registration Statement), calculated in accordance with
Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act. Of this amount, $9,926.80 is associated
with the Unsold Securities. The registrant may continue to offer and sell under
the Prior Registration Statement the Unsold Securities being registered
hereunder. To the extent that, after the filing date hereof and prior to the
effectiveness of this registration statement, the registrant sells any Unsold
Securities under the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant will identify
in a pre-effective amendment to this registration statement the updated amount
of Unsold Securities from the Prior Registration Statement to be included in
this registration statement pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) and the updated amount of
new securities to be registered on this registration statement. Pursuant to
Rule 415(a)(6), the offering of securities registered under the Prior
Registration Statement will be deemed terminated as of the date of
effectiveness of this registration statement.</span> </div> </td> </tr> </table><span></span>

under the Securities Act, the securities registered pursuant to this
registration statement represent $67,254,761 of unsold securities (the &#x201c;Unsold
Securities&#x201d;) previously registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form
S-3 (File No. 333-276462), initially filed by the registrant with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on January 10, 2024 and declared effective
on January 23, 2024 (the &#x201c;Prior Registration Statement&#x201d;). The Prior
Registration Statement registered securities for a maximum aggregate offering
price of $175,000,000, and of that amount the registrant has previously sold
securities for an aggregate offering price of $107,745,239, leaving a balance
of unsold securities with an aggregate offering price of $67,254,761. In
connection with the filing of the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant
paid a filing fee of $25,830.00 associated with the offering of the securities
registered thereunder (based on the filing fee rate in effect at the time of
the filing of the Prior Registration Statement), calculated in accordance with
Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act. Of this amount, $9,926.80 is associated
with the Unsold Securities. The registrant may continue to offer and sell under
the Prior Registration Statement the Unsold Securities being registered
hereunder. To the extent that, after the filing date hereof and prior to the
effectiveness of this registration statement, the registrant sells any Unsold
Securities under the Prior Registration Statement, the registrant will identify
in a pre-effective amendment to this registration statement the updated amount
of Unsold Securities from the Prior Registration Statement to be included in
this registration statement pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) and the updated amount of
new securities to be registered on this registration statement. Pursuant to
Rule 415(a)(6), the offering of securities registered under the Prior
Registration Statement will be deemed terminated as of the date of
effectiveness of this registration statement.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt;</ffd:OfferingNote>
