Certain of the Selling Stockholders may be eligible to sell their Shares prior to the expiration of the lock-up agreements that they have entered into with the underwriters for our initial public offering, pursuant to release provisions in such lock-up agreements as described in the section titled "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" in our registration statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2026 and as amended from time to time thereafter (File No. 333-294868).

This prospectus relates to 1,369,561 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), of VIDA Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which Shares may be offered from time to time by certain stockholders that are our current or former employees, directors and consultants (the "Selling Stockholders"), for their own accounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Shares by the Selling Stockholders made hereunder. The Shares were or will be acquired by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the VIDA Global Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and/or restated, the "2022 Plan") or other "employee benefit plans" as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

The Selling Stockholders may sell the securities described in this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices, including sales in the open market, sales in negotiated transactions and sales by a combination of these methods. Certain of the Selling Stockholders may be eligible to sell their Shares prior to the expiration of the lock-up agreements that they have entered into with the underwriters for our initial public offering, pursuant to release provisions in such lock-up agreements as described in the section titled "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" in our registration statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2026 and as amended from time to time thereafter (File No. 333-294868). Subject to such lock-up agreements, the Selling Stockholders may sell any, all, or none of the Shares, and we do not know when or in what amount the Selling Stockholders may sell their Shares, if they were to sell any, hereunder following the effective date of this registration statement. The price at which any of the Shares may be sold, and the commissions, if any, paid in connection with any such sale, are unknown and may vary from transaction to transaction. The Shares may be sold at the market price of our Class A common stock at the time of a sale, at prices relating to the market price over a period of time, or at prices negotiated with the buyers of the Shares. The Shares may be sold through underwriters or dealers which the Selling Stockholders may select. If underwriters or dealers are used to sell the Shares, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. We provide more information about how the Selling Stockholders may sell their Shares in the section titled "Plan of Distribution."

The amount of securities to be offered or resold under this reoffer prospectus by each Selling Stockholder or other person with whom he or she is acting in concert for the purpose of selling our securities, may not exceed, during any three-month period, the amount specified in Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act.

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined under federal securities laws, and as such, we have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus and may elect to do so in future filings.

Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before buying any shares of our Class A common stock, you should carefully read the discussion of the risks of investing in our Class A common stock in the section titled "Risk Factors" included or incorporated by reference into this prospectus on page 4.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") may take the view that, under certain circumstances, the Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the Selling Stockholders in the distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. Commissions, discounts or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agent may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act. See the section titled "Plan of Distribution."

THE COMPANY

Overview

VIDA Global Inc. is building the AI Agent Operating System for modern businesses (the "Vida Agent OS"). Our platform is designed to enable enterprises, service providers, software vendors, and entrepreneurs to deploy, govern, and manage production-grade AI agents across voice, messaging, email, and web. These agents connect to systems companies already rely on-such as phones, CRMs, ticketing tools, calendars, and billing systems-and are intended to perform work that often falls through the cracks, including recovering missed calls, qualifying leads, scheduling and confirming appointments, triaging support tickets, maintaining CRM accuracy, and initiating payments. For businesses, we believe these capabilities may help support faster response times, fewer dropped handoffs, and higher conversion and completion rates, although results vary by customer and use case.

Our mission is to make the AI-agent economy accessible to every business by equipping service and software providers with a platform for deploying and selling agents quickly and at scale. We focus on the "Business AI Agent" category-agents that are designed to operate within a company's existing communication channels and systems of record to complete well-defined tasks such as answering inbound calls, responding to missed contacts, booking meetings, following up with prospects, and capturing payments. We believe the public markets currently offer limited opportunities for investors seeking focused exposure to the emerging Business AI Agent category as a standalone operating theme. As of April 14, 2026, Microsoft Corporation, Alphabet Inc. (GOOG), and Meta Platforms, Inc. had market capitalizations of approximately $3.59 trillion, $2.94 trillion, and $1.84 trillion, respectively, based on publicly available information, which we believe illustrates that much of public-market exposure to AI remains concentrated in large, diversified technology companies rather than companies focused primarily on the Business AI Agent category.

We pursue a channel-first distribution strategy supplemented by targeted direct sales. Accordingly, our go-to-market model is designed around two primary buyer groups: channel partners that embed, resell, and operate Vida agents for their own customers, and end businesses that deploy Vida directly where they require larger-scale rollouts, deeper integrations, or more centralized governance and billing controls. We enable managed service providers ("MSPs"), IT solution providers, telecom advisors, technology agents, vertical software vendors, and UCaaS/CCaaS platforms to embed, resell, and operate Vida agents across their installed bases. These partners can manage many tenants from a single, secure, multi-tenant console and use branded options and pass-through billing to present agents as an integrated part of their existing offerings. At the same time, we maintain direct engagement with larger organizations that require hundreds of agents, deep integrations, and advanced governance and billing controls.

Our platform is designed to be omnichannel from the outset. Vida AI agents can handle inbound and outbound communication across voice, text messaging, email, and web chat, and are designed to work alongside a broad range of telephony systems, including SIP-based VoIP and PBX environments. Core workflows include inbound reception and routing, outbound lead follow-up with consent and retries, CRM summarization and tagging, appointment confirmations and reminders, and payment capture through customer-selected providers. Agents operate inside existing systems and are designed so that actions taken on behalf of the customer are recorded in the relevant systems of record with appropriate tags and attribution.

Under the surface, the Vida Agent OS brings together omnichannel I/O, AI model orchestration, policy and compliance controls, integrations with CRMs and other business systems, observability and auto-QA, usage-based billing, and embeddable interfaces and APIs. Turnkey connectors to schedulers, ticketing tools, and payments providers give agents the ability to read and write business data, while dashboards and tracing tools allow partners and customers to monitor throughput, conversion rates, and quality at the agent, tenant, and brand levels. Branded UIs, APIs, and billing integrations are intended to help partners commercialize agents as part of their existing product and service lines.

We operate in a nascent and rapidly evolving industry. We are building toward a long-term shift from software that people operate to software that operates on their behalf. We believe that this transition-from screen-based, seat-priced applications to agentic, outcome-aligned systems-will require safe orchestration, reliable integrations with systems of record, and distribution models that reach businesses through the vendors they already trust. Our limited operating history at the scale and scope contemplated by this offering, together with the early stage of the Business AI Agent category, means that our business, unit economics, and growth trajectory are subject to significant uncertainty.

Risks Factors Summary

Investing in our Class A common stock involves numerous risks, including the risks described in the section titled "Risk Factors" and in the final prospectus relating to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-294868), filed with the SEC on May 18, 2026, which are incorporated by reference herein, and subsequent reports filed with the SEC, together with the financial and other information, contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should carefully consider these risks before making an investment. Below are some of these risks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We have a limited operating history with an evolving business focused on AI agents, which makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects, plan for future operations, and forecast our results.
Our use and provision of AI-powered solutions could lead to operational or reputational damage, competitive harm, legal and regulatory risk and additional costs.
Our business depends on our ability to attract new customers and on existing customers continuing and expanding their use of our AI agent platform; if we fail to do so, our growth prospects, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
We derive substantially all of our revenue from our AI Agent Operating System and platform, and our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be adversely affected if this platform fails to achieve or maintain market acceptance.
Our revenue model is primarily usage-based and tied to minutes, messages, and completed actions, which may cause significant variability in our results of operations and cash flows.
Our partner-led distribution strategy may not perform as expected; we may fail to attract, enable, and retain managed service providers, telecom advisors, UCaaS/CCaaS platforms, and vertical SaaS vendors at the pace and scale we anticipate.
Our operating results could be materially and adversely affected if we lose any of our largest customers.
We may experience long and variable sales and activation cycles, including embedded launches through vendor partners, which require upfront investments with uncertain payback.
Our software is complex and may not perform as intended for all customers and partners, particularly at scale across many tenants and real-time channels.
We rely on third-party technologies and service providers for models, speech, telephony, cloud infrastructure, and payments. Disruptions, terminations, price increases, or unfavorable terms could harm our platform functionality, costs, and customer experience.
If our performance metrics, illustrative case studies, or internal concepts such as "Return on AI" are inaccurate, inconsistent, or misunderstood, our ability to manage the business and investor expectations may be adversely affected.
We depend on a small number of rapidly evolving foundation model providers, whose technology, safety choices, and business terms we do not control.
Our use of LLMs exposes us to emerging attack vectors such as prompt injection, model "jailbreaking," and adversarial inputs that may circumvent existing security and compliance controls.

Risks Related to Technology, Security, and Privacy

A security breach or unauthorized access to our systems or those of our third-party service providers could result in the loss, compromise, or unauthorized disclosure of customer data, harm our reputation, and subject us to significant liability and regulatory scrutiny.
If we fail to obtain, maintain, or timely remediate issues identified in security and compliance audits or certifications, including SOC 2, our reputation could be harmed and we could lose customers or be unable to win new business.
We rely on our own AI Agent Operating System and AI agents to operate important aspects of our business, which may increase our exposure to operational, compliance, and reputational risks.
2

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

We may be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We could incur substantial costs in protecting or defending our intellectual property rights, and any failure to protect our intellectual property could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Legal and Regulatory Matters

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corruption Practices Act, or FCPA, and similar anti-corruption, anti-bribery, and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to criminal or civil liability and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Tax Matters

Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

Risks Related to Our Initial Public Offering and Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock

No public market for our Class A common stock currently exists, an active trading market for our Class A common stock may never develop or be sustained, and the initial public offering price may not be indicative of the market price of our Class A common stock following the offering.
We will be a "controlled company" within the meaning of the NYSE American and NYSE Texas rules upon the initial public offering because our founders will beneficially own more than 50% of the voting power of our outstanding voting securities.
Our directors, officers and principal stockholders have significant voting power and may take actions that may not be in the best interests of our other stockholders.
The market price of our Class A common stock may be volatile and may decline regardless of our operating performance, which could result in the loss of all or part of your investment.
Future sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public markets, or the perception that they might occur, could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline.
We are an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company" and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies may make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.
We will incur significant increased costs and demands on management resources as a result of operating as a public company.
If you purchase shares of our Class A common stock in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution, and additional issuances of equity securities may further dilute you.
Our charter documents and Delaware law could delay or prevent a change in control that stockholders may consider favorable and may limit your ability to influence corporate matters.
We may need additional capital in the future, and any such financing may result in dilution to stockholders or impose operational or financial restrictions on us.
We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and we may not be able to successfully implement remedial measures.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 11, 2022, under the name VIDA Global Inc. Our principal executive offices are located at 12160 W Parmer Ln, Ste 130-716, Cedar Park, TX 78613. Our telephone number is (833) 588-8432, and our website address is https://vida.io/.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in shares of our Class A common stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. We face a variety of risks that may affect our operations or financial results and many of those risks are driven by factors that we cannot control or predict. Before investing in our Class A common stock, you should carefully consider the risks set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in our final prospectus relating to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-294868), filed with the SEC on May 18, 2026, which are incorporated by reference herein, and subsequent reports filed with the SEC, together with the financial and other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our Class A common stock would likely decline and you may lose all or a part of your investment. Only those investors who can bear the risk of loss of their entire investment should invest in our Class A common stock. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus or as of the date of the applicable document incorporated by reference herein, as applicable.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the Shares covered by this prospectus to permit the Selling Stockholders to conduct public secondary trading of these Shares from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds of the sale of the Shares offered by this prospectus. The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of the Shares will be the purchase price of the Shares less any discounts and commissions. We will not pay any brokers' or underwriters' discounts and commissions in connection with the registration and sale of the Shares covered by this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their respective agents, to reject, any proposed purchases of Shares to be made directly or through agents.

The Shares offered by this prospectus may be sold from time to time to purchasers:

directly by the Selling Stockholders, or
through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, commissions or agent's commissions from the Selling Stockholders or the purchasers of the Shares.

Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the sale or distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a result, any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agents who are deemed to be underwriters will be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the Selling Stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent regarding the sale of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders.

The Shares may be sold in one or more transactions at:

fixed prices;
prevailing market prices at the time of sale;
prices related to such prevailing market prices;
varying prices determined at the time of sale; or
negotiated prices.

These sales may be effected in one or more transactions:

on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the Shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, including the NYSE American and NYSE Texas;
in the over-the-counter market;
in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market;
any other method permitted by applicable law; or
through any combination of the foregoing.

These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade.

At the time a particular offering of the Shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the name of the Selling Stockholders, the aggregate amount of Shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the Selling Stockholders and (3) any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers.

The Selling Stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size of each resale or other transfer. There can be no assurance that the Selling Stockholders will sell any or all of the Shares under this prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that the Selling Stockholders will not transfer, distribute, devise or gift the Shares by other means not described in this prospectus. In addition, any Shares covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Shares may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

The Selling Stockholders and any other person participating in the sale of the Shares will be subject to the Exchange Act. The Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders and any other person. In addition, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the Shares to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular Shares being distributed. This may affect the marketability of the Shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Shares.

The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker or underwriter that participates in transactions involving the sale of the Shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

The following documents filed with the SEC are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:

(a) The Registrant's prospectus filed on May 18, 2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act relating to the Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-294868), which contains audited financial statements for the Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have been filed;

All reports and documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (other than Current Reports furnished under Item 2.02 or Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and exhibits furnished on such form that relate to such items) subsequent to the filing of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment, which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing such documents, except as to specific sections of such documents as set forth therein.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations. The terms of Section 145 of the DGCL are sufficiently broad to permit indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's second amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that eliminate the personal liability of its directors and officers for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as a director or officer, except liability for the following:

any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders;
any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
any act related to unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or payment of dividends as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL;
any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; and
with respect to officers, any action by or in the right of the corporation.
II-1

As permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's amended and restated bylaws, provide that:

the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to very limited exceptions;
the Registrant may indemnify its other employees and agents as set forth in the DGCL;
the Registrant is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and executive officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to very limited exceptions; and
the rights provided in the Registrant's amended and restated bylaws are not exclusive.

The Registrant has entered, and intends to continue to enter, into indemnification agreements with each of its current directors and executive officers to provide these directors and executive officers additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification set forth in its second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and to provide additional procedural protections. There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director or executive officer of the Registrant for which indemnification is sought. The indemnification provisions in the Registrant's second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws and the indemnification agreements entered into or to be entered into between the Registrant and each of its directors and executive officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the directors and executive officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

The Registrant currently carries liability insurance for its directors and officers.

Certain of the Registrant's directors are also indemnified by their employers with regard to service on the Registrant's board of directors.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

The issuance of the Shares that constitute "restricted securities" under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act being offered by the Form S-8 resale prospectus were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (or Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder), or Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering or pursuant to benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701. The recipients of the securities in each of these transactions represented their intentions to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof, and appropriate legends were placed upon the securities issued in these transactions. All recipients had adequate access, through their relationships with us, to information about the Registrant.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

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

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

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

Provided, however, that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

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

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
