For a more complete understanding of the offering of the securities, you should refer to the registration statement, including its exhibits.

Each time the selling stockholder named in this prospectus (or in any supplement to this prospectus) sells shares of our common stock under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, such selling stockholder must provide a copy of this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, to a potential purchaser, as required by law.

In certain circumstances we may provide a prospectus supplement that may add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. Any statement that we make in this prospectus will be modified or superseded by any inconsistent statement made by us in a prospectus supplement. You should read both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, including all documents incorporated herein or therein by reference, together with additional information described under "*Where You Can Find More Information*" and *"Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference*" beginning on page 10 of this prospectus.

Neither we nor the selling stockholder have authorized any other person to provide you with information other than the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. Neither we nor the selling stockholder will make an offer to sell our common stock in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement is accurate as of the date on its respective cover, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless we indicate otherwise. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.

Except where the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Branchout Food, Inc." and "the company" refer to Branchout Food Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

**SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in greater detail in our reports filed from time to time under the Securities Act and/or the Exchange Act, including the risks identified under the heading "*Risk Factors*" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety. We encourage you to read these filings as they are made. Also, these forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of the document containing the applicable statement.

You should read this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference herein, and any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in the foregoing documents by these cautionary statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Moreover, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this prospectus to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations. Thus, you should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.

This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before deciding to invest in our securities. You should carefully read this entire prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, including each of the documents incorporated herein or therein by reference, before making an investment decision.

**Corporate Overview**

We are a growth-stage consumer packaged foods company focused on developing, manufacturing, marketing, and distributing clean-label, plant-based dried fruit and vegetable snacks for retail and foodservice markets through BranchOut-branded products, private-label offerings, and ingredient sales. We operate a 50,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Pisco, Peru, which is strategically located near key agricultural regions, enabling harvest-driven seasonal sourcing of high-quality fruits and vegetables—including pineapple, banana, strawberry, avocado and apple—while reducing transportation time and costs, and supporting product freshness.

We utilize proprietary GentleDry™ technology to convert fresh fruits and vegetables into clean-label snacks and industrial ingredients within approximately 10 days. GentleDry™ is an advanced dehydration platform licensed exclusively to us from EnWave Corporation for certain fruits and vegetables, enabling the production of differentiated products that preserves taste, texture, color, and nutrients while improving process speed, energy efficiency, and oxidation control. The GentleDry™ technology is protected by more than 17 patents.

We are focused on expanding distribution, increasing production capacity, and developing new products intended to drive repeat consumer demand and scalable retail placement. We emphasize continuous improvement across product formulation, texture, flavor, and quality, while leveraging process innovation to deliver clean-label products at competitive price points that support broad distribution across national retail platforms.

**Our Products**

Our products are sold through three primary channels: BranchOut branded retail snack products, private-label products for major retailers, and fruit and vegetable ingredient products sold to food manufacturers.

Our BranchOut branded products consist primarily of shelf-stable fruit and vegetable snacks designed to preserve the natural flavor, color and texture of the underlying produce. These products are distributed through grocery, club, online and direct-to-consumer channels.

We also manufacture private-label dehydrated snack products for major North American retailers, which are sold under customer brands through their existing retail distribution channels. In addition, we produce dehydrated fruit and vegetable ingredients, including pieces, powders and inclusions, for use in cereals, snack bars, baked goods, salads, ready-to-eat meals and other packaged food applications.

We continue to develop additional fruit and vegetable snack products and ingredient formats for both branded and private label customers. Product development efforts are focused on expanding our snack portfolio, supporting private label programs for large retailers, and developing new ingredient applications for food manufacturers. From time to time, we engage with potential commercial partners and institutional customers to develop products tailored to specific applications.

**Operating Strategy and Key Performance Drivers**

We are focused on executing a growth-stage strategy that balances product innovation, distribution expansion, and disciplined manufacturing scale-up. As a manufacturing-led business, our strategy emphasizes aligning customer growth and product development with production capacity, supply-chain execution, and cost control.

Key elements of our strategy include:

● **Driving revenue growth through customer onboarding and product expansion**, by developing new snack and ingredient products designed to generate repeat consumer demand and support scalable retail and foodservice placement.

● **Expanding distribution channels across national and regional retail, club, grocery, and private-label platforms** to increase product availability while maintaining disciplined customer and channel selection.

● **Scaling manufacturing utilization and capacity**, with a focus on achieving high utilization at our Peru Facility while investing in incremental capacity expansion to support anticipated demand, operational efficiency, and margin improvement.

● **Maintaining operational discipline during scale-up**, including production planning, inventory management, quality control, and supply-chain coordination, to support consistent product quality, reliable fulfillment, and cost management as volumes increase.

Management believes that executing a manufacturing-led growth strategy allows us to compete effectively by pairing differentiated products with scalable operations, while managing the complexity and execution demands inherent in expanding within the consumer-packaged foods industry

We were incorporated as Avochips Inc., an Oregon corporation, on February 21, 2017, and on November 2, 2017, we converted into Avochips, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company.

**RISK FACTORS**

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making any investment decision, you should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below, the information under the caption "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and the subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act.

These risks could materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition and affect the value of our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not yet identified may also materially harm our business, operating results and financial condition and could result in a complete loss of your investment. You could lose all or part of your investment. For more information, see "*Where You Can Find More Information*."

***Sales of Substantial Amounts of Our Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder, or the Perception That These Sales Could Occur, Could Adversely Affect the Price of Our Common Stock.***

The sale by the selling stockholder of a significant number of shares of common stock could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the perception in the public markets that the selling stockholder may sell all or a portion of their shares as a result of the registration of such shares for resale pursuant to this prospectus could also in and of itself have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of common stock or the availability of those shares of common stock for resale will have on the market price of our common stock.

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock covered hereby. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus will be received by the selling stockholder.

Subject to limited exceptions, the selling stockholder will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the selling stockholder for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the selling stockholder in disposing of any shares of common stock. We will bear the costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus, including all registration and filing fees, and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accounting firm.

**SELLING STOCKHOLDER**

Kaufman Kapital, LLC ("Kaufman" or the "selling stockholder"), is offering 500,000 shares of common stock that it acquired from us on May 7, 2026 upon its exercise in full, for a cash payment to us of $750,000, of a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock (the "$1.50 Warrant"). We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except as described below, the selling stockholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

On July 15, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (as amended, the "SPA") with Daniel L. Kaufman, pursuant to which Mr. Kaufman agreed to purchase from us, in a private placement (i) a 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of up to $3,400,000 (the "Convertible Note"), convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a fixed price of $0.7582 per share of common stock, a (ii) a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the "$1.00 Warrant"), and (iii) and the $1.50 Warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (together with the $1.00 Warrant and the Convertible Note, the "Purchased Securities"), in consideration of an initial loan in the principal amount of $2,000,000 (the "Initial Loan") to be made to us under the Convertible Note. On July 19, 2024, the Company, Mr. Kaufman and Kaufman Kapital LLC entered into an amendment to the SPA, which among other things, replaced Mr. Kaufman with Kaufman Kapital LLC as the "Investor" under the SPA.

On July 24, 2024, we issued the Purchased Securities to Kaufman in consideration of the making of the Initial Loan to the Company. Our obligations under the Convertible Note are secured by a lien granted to Kaufman on substantially all of our assets pursuant to a Security Agreement entered between us and Kaufman (the "Security Agreement"). In addition, the Convertible Note includes affirmative and negative covenants, events of defaults and other terms and conditions, customary in transactions of this nature.

On August 29, 2024, we borrowed an additional $1,200,000 from Kaufman pursuant to a Senior Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,200,000. We repaid this loan in full during the year ended December 31, 2025.

On June 1, 2025, we entered into a Warrant Exercise and Amendment to Notes and Warrant Agreement with Kaufman, pursuant to which (i) Kaufman exercised in full the $1.00 Warrant, for a cash payment of $1,000,000, (ii) the expiration date of the $1.50 Warrant was extended to December 31, 2026, (iii) the maturity date of the Convertible Note was extended from December 31, 2025 to December 31, 2026, (iv) we agreed not to make any prepayment under the Convertible Note at any time amounts are outstanding under the Secured Note or any other non-convertible notes of the Company (excluding notes issued pursuant to equipment financing), and (v) we agreed not to prepay more than $2,400,000 of principal outstanding under the Convertible Note prior to September 30, 2026.

On January 28, 2026, Kaufman converted $500,000 of principal outstanding under the Convertible Note into 659,457 shares of the Company's common stock.

On January 28, 2026, we borrowed $1,500,000 from Kaufman pursuant to a Senior Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,500,000 (the "Original Note"). The Note matures on January 28, 2027 and bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and is secured by the Security Agreement we previously entered with Kaufman. On April 17, 2026, we borrowed an additional $750,000 from Kaufman pursuant to an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,250,000 (the "Note"), which amended and restated the Original Note and was in the same form as the Original Note. On May 15, 2026, we borrowed an additional $750,000 from Kaufman on the same terms provided for under the Note, pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $3,000,000, which amended and restated the Note.

On May 7, 2026, we entered into a Warrant Exercise and Amendment to Note and Warrant Agreement with Kaufman pursuant to which Kaufman exercised the $1.50 Warrant in full, and Kaufman and the Company agreed (i) to extend the maturity date of the Convertible Note from December 31, 2026 to December 31, 2027, (ii) to reduce the interest rate under the Convertible Note from 12% to 8%, and (iii) that the Company will not prepay more than $2,400,000 of principal outstanding under the Convertible Note prior to September 30, 2027. Pursuant to the Agreement, we also agreed (i) to file the registration statement that includes this prospectus, and (ii) upon Kaufman's request, to file an additional registration statement within 30 days of such request to register the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of interest under the Convertible Note.

On May 14, 2026, we entered into an amendment to the Convertible Note pursuant to which a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation provision was added under which Kaufman may not convert any portion of the Convertible Note into shares of our common stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, Kaufman would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock.

**Selling Stockholder Table**

The table below lists information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock of the selling stockholder. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder, based on its ownership of our shares of common stock and convertible securities, as of June 4, 2026. The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholder. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus. The selling stockholder may sell all, some or none of the shares in this offering. See "Plan of Distribution," following the table below.

(1) Consists of the 500,000
 shares offered hereby, and 1,030,071 shares of common stock that may be acquired upon conversion
 of outstanding principal under the Convertible Note, giving effect to the 9.99% beneficial
 ownership limitation provision included therein. Without giving effect to such limitation,
 the principal outstanding under the Convertible Note in the amount of $2,900,000 as of the
 date hereof converts into 3,824,848 shares of common stock, in addition to shares of common
 stock that may be issued upon conversion of accrued interest under the Convertible Note.
 Daniel L. Kaufman has sole voting and dispositive power over these shares.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

The selling stockholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

● ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

● block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

● purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

● an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

● privately negotiated transactions;

● settlement of short sales;

● in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

● through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

● a combination of any such methods of sale; or

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholder may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The selling stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the selling stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

**LEGAL MATTERS**

The validity of the securities offered by this prospectus will be passed upon by Pachulski Stang Ziehl Jones LLP, New York, New York. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers, or agents, by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement.

**EXPERTS**

**Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers**

NRS 78.138(7) provides that, subject to limited statutory exceptions and unless the articles of incorporation or an amendment thereto (in each case filed on or after October 1, 2003) provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not individually liable to a corporation or its stockholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that: (i) the act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer and (ii) the breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law.

NRS 78.7502(1) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. NRS 78.7502(2) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if the person (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any such action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him or her against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person is liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

NRS 78.751(1) provides that any discretionary indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 (unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to NRS 78.751(2)), may be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made (i) by the stockholders; (ii) by the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (iii) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (iv) if a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion. NRS 78.751(2) provides that the corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws, or an agreement made by the corporation, may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.

Under the NRS, the indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.751:

---

| |
|:---|
| ● Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in the person's official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to NRS 78.751(2), may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that the director's or officer's acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the cause of action; and |
| ● Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. |

---

A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the articles of incorporation or any bylaw is not eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.

The articles of incorporation of the Company provide that to the fullest extent permitted under the NRS (including, without limitation, to the fullest extent permitted under NRS 78.7502 and 78.751(3)) and other applicable law, the Company shall indemnify directors and officers of the Company in their respective capacities as such and in any and all other capacities in which any of them serves at the request of the Company. The articles of incorporation of the Company further provide that the liability of its directors and officers shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, and that if the NRS are amended to further eliminate or limit or authorize corporate action to further eliminate or limit the liability of directors or officers, the liability of directors and officers of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as so amended from time to time; and in addition to any other rights of indemnification permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada or as may be provided for by the Company in its bylaws or by agreement, the expenses of directors and officers incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding, involving alleged acts or omissions of such director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, must be paid, by the Company or through insurance purchased and maintained by the Company or through other financial arrangements made by the Company, as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

Further, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers that may be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the NRS. Such agreements may require the Company, among other things, to advance expenses and otherwise indemnify its executive officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as executive officers or directors, to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Company intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and executive officers in the future.

The Company maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (a) to its directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and (b) to the Company with respect to payments which may be made by the Company to such officers and directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.

**Item 17. Undertakings**

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
 Act of 1933;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 20% change in the
 maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Filing Fee Tables"
 or "Calculation of Registration Fee" table, as applicable, in the effective registration
 statement; and

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

(2) That, for the purpose
 of determining any liability under the Securities Act 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
 under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each prospectus required
 to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement
 in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(l)(i), (vii)
 or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities
 Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of
 the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the
 date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus.
 As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at
 that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration
 statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus
 relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial *bona fide* offering thereof. *Provided, however*, that no statement made in a
 registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in
 a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement
 or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time
 of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that
 was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement
 or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5) That, for the purpose
 of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 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:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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
 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 this 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.

**SIGNATURES**

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Bend, State of Oregon, on June 5, 2026.
