gallon containers in a concentrated formula that is mixed in beverage dispensing equipment 1:1 with water. The Company has a “no
sugar added” version of the bulk “Easy Pour” format that is specifically targeted for the aforementioned USDA national
school meal programs. In addition, the Company received approval from the United States Defense Logistics Agency (“DLA”)
to sell its smoothie products into all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces and is currently in contract with and selling its bulk Easy
Pour products into over one hundred military bases in the United States and abroad. Additionally, the Company offers WHIRLZ 100% Juice
concentrate, which is sold at ambient temperatures and mixed in beverage dispensing equipment on a 5:1 ratio.

The beverage packs contain all the ingredients necessary to make the beverage, including the base (either sorbet, frozen yogurt, or ice
cream), real fruit pieces, juices, and ice – five ounces of water are added before blending.
In
2024, the Company introduced its ready-to-eat juice pop, “Pop & Go” ™, with initial shipments in the
fourth quarter of 2024. The product will initially be focused towards the National School Lunch and Smart Snacks in Schools Programs.

RISK
FACTORS
You
should consider carefully the risks described below and discussed under the section captioned “Risk Factors” contained in
our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, each of which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the information
and documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and any free writing prospectus
that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering before you make a decision to invest in our securities. If any of the
following events actually occur, our business, operating results, prospects or financial condition could be materially and adversely
affected. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks
described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may
also affect our business operations.
Risks
Related to Our Business
We
have a history of operating losses.
We
have a history of operating losses and may not achieve or sustain profitability. These operating losses have been generated while we
market to potential customers. We cannot guarantee that we will become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability, given the competitive
and evolving nature of the industry in which we operate, we may be unable to sustain or increase profitability and our failure to do
so would adversely affect the Company’s business, including our ability to raise additional funds.
If
we continue to suffer losses from operations, our working capital may be insufficient to support our ability to expand our business operations
as rapidly as we would deem necessary at any time, unless we are able to obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that
we will be able to obtain such financing on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on
acceptable terms, we may not be able to pursue our business objectives and would be required to reduce our level of operations, including
reducing infrastructure, promotions, sales and marketing programs, personnel and other operating expenses. These events could adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. If adequate funds are not available or if they are not available
on acceptable terms, our ability to fund the growth of our operations, take advantage of opportunities, develop products or services
or otherwise respond to competitive pressures, could be significantly limited.
As
an increasing portion of our sales is coming from school districts, our business is becoming more seasonal, which presents certain challenges
with respect to cash flow.
With
sales to school districts representing an increasing percentage of our total sales, we require a significant amount of working capital
to fund the production of inventory during the third calendar quarter. Revenues from sales to school districts generally are reflected
in our first quarter and third quarter results. We continue efforts to have less fluctuation with respect to working capital –
for example by developing a frozen juice pop product which we expect to be more popular during warmer months of the year – but
such efforts require time to be accepted in the marketplace.
Issues
with a manufacturer have resulted in significant losses, as well as other negative impacts.
We
experienced product quality issues with a contract manufacturer (the “Manufacturer”) that provided approximately 52% of our
products in the year ended December 31, 2022. Complaints from customers led us to withdraw product from the market and destroy existing
inventory.
In
addition to the financial damage from the product withdrawal, we must obtain suitable replacement contract manufacturers and regain the
confidence of our customers and investing public, all while seeking a resolution with the contract manufacturer. These tasks have required
substantial amounts of personnel and capital resources in 2023 and 2024, including production trial and other start-up costs, with ongoing
activities expected in 2025.
Disruption
within our supply chain, contract manufacturing or distribution channels could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
Our
ability, through our suppliers, business partners, contract manufacturers, independent distributors and retailers, to produce, transport,
distribute and sell products is critical to our success.
Damage
or disruption to our suppliers or to manufacturing or distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire or explosion,
terrorism, pandemics such as COVD-19 and influenza, labor strikes or other reasons, could impair the manufacture, distribution and sale
of our products. Many of these events are outside of our control. Failure to take adequate steps to protect against or mitigate the likelihood
or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, could adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Our
experience with the Manufacturer demonstrates how our reliance on a limited number of manufacturers and suppliers further increases this
risk. Most of our suppliers and manufacturers produce similar products for other companies, and our products may represent a small portion
of their businesses. Further, it takes a newly engaged manufacturer typically up to nine months of retrofitting/ preparation before it
can begin producing our products. In 2023 and 2024 we did not have contracts in place to produce sufficient units to meet projected demand.
If one of our manufacturers fails to perform, we will be faced with a significant interruption in our supply chain. If one of our manufacturers
or suppliers fails to perform or deliver products, for any reason, our sales and results of operations could be adversely affected. Furthermore,
if we are unable to meet our customers’ demands due to a disruption in our supply chain, we may lose that customer which could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our
dependence on independent contract manufacturers could make management of our manufacturing and distribution efforts inefficient or unprofitable.
We
are expected to arrange for our contract manufacturing needs sufficiently in advance of anticipated requirements, which is customary
in the contract manufacturing industry for comparably sized companies. Based on the cost structure and forecasted demand for the particular
geographic area where our contract manufacturers are located, we continually evaluate which of our contract manufacturers to use. To
the extent demand for our products exceeds available inventory or the production capacity of our contract manufacturing arrangements,
or orders are not submitted on a timely basis, we will be unable to fulfill distributor orders on demand. Conversely, we may produce
more product inventory than warranted by the actual demand for it, resulting in higher storage costs and the potential risk of inventory
spoilage. Our failure to accurately predict and manage our contract manufacturing requirements and our inventory levels may impair relationships
with our independent distributors and key accounts, which, in turn, would likely have a material adverse effect on our ability to maintain
effective relationships with those distributors and key accounts. At present, we must replace the Manufacturer with one or more new contract
manufacturers and/or arrange for increased production from our existing contract manufacturers, all of which require several months to
implement.
If
we do not adequately manage our inventory levels, our operating results could be adversely affected.
We
need to maintain adequate inventory levels to be able to deliver products to distributors on a timely basis. Our inventory supply depends
on our ability to correctly estimate demand for our products. Our ability to estimate demand for our products is imprecise, particularly
for new products, seasonal promotions and new markets. If we materially underestimate demand for our products or are unable to maintain
sufficient inventory, we might not be able to satisfy demand on a short-term basis. If we overestimate distributor or retailer demand
for our products, we may end up with too much inventory, resulting in increased working capital requirements, higher storage costs, increased
trade spending and the risk of inventory spoilage. If we fail to manage our inventory to meet demand, we could damage our relationships
with our distributors and retailers and could delay or lose sales opportunities, which would unfavorably impact our future sales and
adversely affect our operating results. In addition, if the inventory of our products held by our distributors and retailers is too high,
they will not place orders for additional products, which would also unfavorably impact our sales and adversely affect our operating
results.
We
may need additional financing in the future, which may not be available when needed or may be costly and dilutive.
We
may require additional financing to support our working capital needs in the future. The amount of additional capital we may require,
the timing of our capital needs and the availability of financing to fund those needs will depend on a number of factors, including our
strategic initiatives and operating plans, the performance of our business and the market conditions for debt or equity financing. Additionally,
the amount of capital required will depend on our ability to meet our case sales goals and otherwise successfully execute our operating
plan. We believe it is imperative to meet these sales objectives in order to lessen our reliance on external financing in the future.
Although we believe various debt and equity financing alternatives will be available to us to support our working capital needs, financing
arrangements on acceptable terms may not be available to us when needed. Additionally, these alternatives may require significant cash
payments for interest and other costs or could be highly dilutive to our existing shareholders. Any such financing alternatives may not
provide us with sufficient funds to meet our long-term capital requirements. If necessary, we may explore strategic transactions that
we consider to be in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders, which may include, without limitation, public or private
offerings of debt or equity securities, and other strategic alternatives; however, these options may not ultimately be available or feasible.
Our
business depends substantially on the continuing efforts of our senior management and other key personnel, and our business may be severely
disrupted if we lose their services.
Our
future success heavily depends on the continued service of our senior management and other key employees. If one or more of our senior
executives is unable or unwilling to continue to work for us in his or her present position, we may have to spend a considerable amount
of time and resources searching, recruiting, and integrating a replacement into our operations, which would substantially divert management’s
attention from our business and severely disrupt our business. This may also adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy.
Risks
Related to This Offering
Our
management will have broad discretion as to the use of proceeds from this offering and we may not use the proceeds effectively.
Our
management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways
that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our securities. The net proceeds from this offering will be used
for general corporate purposes, including general working capital. You will be relying on the judgment of our management concerning these
uses and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately.
The failure of our management to apply these funds effectively could result in unfavorable returns and uncertainty about our prospects,
each of which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.
If
you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your investment.
The
price per share of our common stock in this offering may exceed the net tangible book value per share of our common stock outstanding
prior to this offering. Therefore, if you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you may pay a price per share that substantially
exceeds our net tangible book value per share after this offering.
A
large number of shares may be sold in the market following this offering, which may depress the market price of our common stock.
Sales
of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market following this offering could cause the market price of our
common stock to decline. If there are more shares of common stock offered for sale than buyers are willing to purchase, then the market
price of our common stock may decline to a market price at which buyers are willing to purchase the offered shares of common stock and
sellers remain willing to sell the shares. All of the shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further
registration under the Securities Act.
You
may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.
In
order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into
or exchangeable for our common stock. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering
at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing
shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional
shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock in future transactions may be higher
or lower than the price per share in this offering. In addition, we have a significant number of stock options and warrants outstanding.
In the event that the outstanding options or warrants, are exercised, or that we make additional issuances of common stock or other convertible
or exchangeable securities, you could experience additional dilution.
Because
we do not intend to declare cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the foreseeable future, stockholders must rely on appreciation
of the value of our common stock for any return on their investment.
We
have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development,
operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition,
the terms of any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, we expect that only appreciation of the price
of our common stock, if any, will provide a return to investors in this offering for the foreseeable future.
Our
common stock may be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market if we cannot maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.
Our
common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There are a number of continued listing requirements that we must satisfy in order
to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
We
cannot assure you our securities will meet the continued listing requirements to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. If Nasdaq delists
our common stock from trading on its exchange, we could face significant material adverse consequences including:
|
● |
a
limited availability of market quotations for our securities; |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
determination that our common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere
to more stringent rules and possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our common
stock; |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
limited amount of news and analyst coverage for our company; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. |
If
we fail to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market and Nasdaq determines
to delist our common stock, the delisting could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock, our ability to obtain financing
to repay debt and fund our operations.
If
our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq and the price of our common stock declines below $5.00 per share, our common stock would
come within the definition of “penny stock”.
Transactions
in securities that are traded in the United States that are not traded on Nasdaq or on other securities exchange by companies, with net
tangible assets of $5,000,000 or less and a market price per share of less than $5.00, may be subject to the “penny stock”
rules. The market price of our common stock is currently more than $5.00 per share. If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq and
the price of our common stock declines below $5.00 per share and our net tangible assets remain $5,000,000 or less, our common stock
would come within the definition of “penny stock”.
Under
these penny stock rules, broker-dealers that recommend such securities to persons other than institutional accredited investors:
|
● |
must
make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser; |
|
|
|
|
● |
receive
the purchaser’s written agreement to a transaction prior to sale; |
|
|
|
|
● |
provide
the purchaser with risk disclosure documents which identify risks associated with investing in “penny stocks” and which
describe the market for these “penny stocks” as well as a purchaser’s legal remedies; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
obtain
a signed and dated acknowledgment from the purchaser demonstrating that the purchaser has actually received the required risk disclosure
document before a transaction in a “penny stock” can be completed. |
As
a result of these requirements, if our common stock is at such time subject to the “penny stock” rules, broker-dealers may
find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in these shares in the United States may be significantly
limited. Accordingly, the market price of the shares may be depressed, and investors may find it more difficult to sell the shares.
Our
common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and may fluctuate significantly.
Our
common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Although an active trading market has developed for our common stock, there can
be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will be sustained. Failure to maintain an active trading market for
our common stock may adversely affect our shareholders’ ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or at all. Our
common stock has experienced, and may experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect
the market price of our common stock.

We may also describe the plan of distribution for any particular offering of our securities in a prospectus supplement. If any agents,

As
of October 25, 2023, the aggregate market value of our outstanding common equity held by non-affiliates, or public float, was $15,042,228
based on 13,924,774 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 6,996,385 shares are held by non-affiliates, and a per share price of
$2.15 based on the average of the bid and asked prices of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 10, 2023 (within 60

forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and those documents
address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future. Any statements in this document
about expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and are forward-looking
statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may”, “should”,
“could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “will likely result”, “expect”,
“will continue”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”,
“projection”, “would”, “outlook” and similar expressions. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates,
assumptions and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Any forward-looking
statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this document. All forward-looking statements
concerning economic conditions, rates of growth, rates of income or values as may be included in this document are based on information
available to us on the dates noted, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
Management
cautions that forward-looking statements are qualified by their terms and/or important factors, many of which are outside of our control,
involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from the statements
made, including, but not limited to, the following risk factors. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements.
Certain
risks and uncertainties could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements
made by us, and you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Actual results or outcomes may differ materially
from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, and you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking
statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and we do not undertake any obligation to update
any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect
the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise.
In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors,
may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

fruit and creamy yogurt smoothie contains four ounces of yogurt and a half-cup of fruit/fruit juice and comes in three different flavors:
strawberry banana, peach and mango pineapple. The product was originally launched in a bottled packaging format. The Company introduced
Twist & Go™ cartons in 2022. Twist & Go™ contains no added sugars, preservatives, artificial flavors or colors. At
only 125 -130 calories and with 5 grams of protein, it makes the perfect start to any day or on-the-go snack.
The
Company’s bulk “Easy Pour” format, which contains all the ingredients necessary to make the beverage, is packaged in
gallon containers in a concentrated formula that is mixed in beverage dispensing equipment 1:1 with water. The Company has a “no
sugar added” version of the bulk “Easy Pour” format, WHIRLZ 100% Juice Concentrate, that is specifically targeted for
the aforementioned USDA national school meal programs. In addition, the Company received approval from the United States Defense Logistics
Agency (“DLA”) to sell its smoothie products into all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces and is currently in contract with
and selling its bulk Easy Pour products into over one hundred military bases in the United States and abroad. In 2023, the Company introduced
a more concentrated version of its bulk product, sold to specific target markets in half-gallon containers.
The
Company’s single serve format features portion controlled and ready-to-blend beverage ingredient packs or “beverage packs”.
The beverage packs contain all the ingredients necessary to make the beverage, including the base (either sorbet, frozen yogurt, or ice
cream), real fruit pieces, juices, and ice – five ounces of water are added before blending.

Company conducts sales through several channels, including National Accounts, Regional Accounts, and Broadline Distributors.

DESCRIPTION
OF CAPITAL STOCK
The
following descriptions of common and preferred stock, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus
supplement, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the common stock and preferred stock that we may offer under this prospectus
but is not intended to be complete. For the full terms of our common and preferred stock, please refer to our certificate of incorporation,
as amended from time to time, and our bylaws, as amended from time to time. The Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”)
may also affect the terms of these securities. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any future common or
preferred stock that we may offer, we will describe the specific terms of any series of these securities in more detail in the applicable
prospectus supplement. If we so indicate in a prospectus supplement, the terms of any common or preferred stock we offer under that prospectus
supplement may differ from the terms of our outstanding capital stock that we describe below.
As
of October 25, 2023, our authorized capital stock consists of 23,400,000 shares of capital stock with a par value of $0.000001 per share,
consisting of 23,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value of $0.000001 per share, and 400,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of
$0.000001 per share, which may, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors be issued in one or more series (the “Preferred
Stock”). As of October 25, 2023, there were 13,924,774 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, held by 88 holders of record.
No shares of Preferred Stock were issued or outstanding as of October 25, 2023. The authorized and unissued shares of both Common and
Preferred Stock are available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless such action is required by applicable law
or the rules of any stock exchange on which our securities may be listed. Unless approval of our stockholders is so required, our board
of directors will not seek stockholder approval for the issuance and sale of either our common stock or preferred stock.
The
Board may from time to time authorize by resolution the issuance of any or all shares of the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock authorized
in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the certificate of incorporation for such purposes, in such amounts, to such
persons, corporations, or entities, for such consideration and in the case of the Preferred Stock, in one or more series, all as the
Board in its discretion may determine and without any vote or other action by the stockholders, except as otherwise required by law.
Common
Stock
Holders
of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of Common Stock do
not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the votes of holders of the Common Stock voting for the election
of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of our Common Stock representing a majority of the voting power of our capital stock
issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders.
Holders
of our Common Stock are entitled to share in all dividends that our Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available
funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in
all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the Common
Stock. Our Common Stock has no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our capital
stock.
Preferred
Stock
The
Board of Directors is authorized at any time, and from time to time, to provide the for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in
one or more series, and to determine the designations, preferences, limitations and relative or other rights of the Preferred Stock or
any series thereof. For each series, the Board of directors shall determine, by resolution or resolutions adopted prior to the issuance
of any shares thereof, the designations, preferences, limitations and relative or other rights thereof. The issuance of preferred stock
may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company without further action by stockholders and
could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock.
Options
to Purchase Common Stock and Performance Share Unit Grants
As
of October 25, 2023, there are 650,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, 480,000
reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and 172,253 reserved for issuance outside of our plans. As of October
25, 2023, there are outstanding options to purchase 598,632 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted
to key employees, officers and directors at a weighted average exercise price of $6.62, and 32,606 issuable pursuant to restricted stock
awards and restricted stock units.
As
of October 25, 2023, there are outstanding grants of 312,438 performance share units pursuant to the Company’s 2023 and 2015 Equity
Incentive Plans to the Company’s officers and employees.
Anti-Takeover
Effects of Various Provisions of Delaware Law and our Certificate of Incorporation
Provisions
of the DGCL and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws could make it more difficult to acquire us by means of a tender offer, a
proxy contest or otherwise, or to remove incumbent officers and directors. These provisions, summarized below, would be expected to discourage
certain types of coercive takeover practices and takeover bids our board of directors may consider inadequate and to encourage persons
seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our ability to negotiate
with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us will outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging
takeover or acquisition proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their
terms.
Effects
of authorized but unissued common stock and blank check preferred stock. One of the effects of the existence of authorized
but unissued common stock and undesignated preferred stock may be to enable our board of directors to make more difficult or to discourage
an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the
continuity of management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the board of directors were to determine that a takeover
proposal was not in our best interest, such shares could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more
transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting
or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting bloc in institutional or other
hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate
or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.
In
addition, our certificate of incorporation grants our board of directors broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized
and unissued shares of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available
for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance also may adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting
rights, of those holders and may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our company.
Prohibition
on Cumulative Voting. Our certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
Authorized
but Unissued Shares. Our authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available for future issuance
without shareholder approval. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock could render more difficult
or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Limitations
on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors. Our certificate of incorporation limits or eliminates the personal
liability of directors to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except in
the cases of breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders; acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law; the unlawful payment of dividends, or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions; transactions
from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; or actions by or in the right of the Company. Our certificate of incorporation
include provisions that require us to indemnify, to the fullest extent allowable under the DGCL, our directors or officers against monetary
damages for actions taken as a director or officer of our company, or for serving at our request as a director or officer or another
position at another corporation or enterprise, as the case may be. Our certificate of incorporation also provide that we must indemnify
and advance reasonable expenses to our directors and officers, subject to our receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as
may be required under the DGCL. We are also expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ insurance to protect our
company, our directors, officers and certain employees for some liabilities.
The
limitation of liability and indemnification provisions under the DGCL and in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage
stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. These provisions may also have the effect
of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might
otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. However, these provisions do not limit or eliminate our rights, or those of any stockholder,
to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s fiduciary duties. Moreover,
the provisions do not alter the liability of directors under the federal securities laws.

Agent
The
transfer agent for our Common Stock is Securities Transfer Corporation, located at 2901 Dallas Parkway, Suite 380, Plano, Texas and its
telephone number is (469) 633-0101.

General
We

amount. Unless we inform you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without
the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series outstanding at the time of issuance. Any such additional debt securities,
together with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of securities under the applicable
indenture. In addition, we will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement material U.S. federal income tax considerations and
any other special considerations for any debt securities we sell which are denominated in a currency or currency unit other than U.S.
dollars. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not be listed on any securities
exchange.
We
expect most debt securities to be issued in fully registered form without coupons and in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples
thereof. Subject to the limitations provided in the indenture and in the prospectus supplement, debt securities that are issued in registered
form may be transferred or exchanged at the corporate office of the trustee or the principal corporate trust office of the trustee, without
the payment of any service charge, other than any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
If
specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, certain of our subsidiaries will guarantee the debt securities. The particular terms
of any guarantee will be described in the related prospectus supplement.
Governing
Law
The
Indentures and the debt securities will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.
DESCRIPTION

may issue warrants to purchase our debt or equity securities. Warrants may be issued independently or together with any other securities

DESCRIPTION

We
may issue rights to purchase debt securities, preferred stock, common stock or warrants. These rights may be issued independently or
together with any other security offered hereby and may or may not be transferable by the shareholder receiving the rights in such offering.

completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the rights agent or any other office indicated in the prospectus supplement,
we will, as soon as practicable, forward the applicable securities purchased upon exercise of the rights. If less than all of the rights
issued in any rights offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to persons other than shareholders, to
or through agents, underwriters or dealers or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby arrangements with
one or more underwriters or other purchasers, pursuant to which the underwriters or other purchasers may be required to purchase any
securities remaining unsubscribed for after such offering, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
The
description in the applicable prospectus supplement of any rights that we may offer will not necessarily be complete and will be qualified
in its entirety by reference to the applicable rights certificate, which will be filed with the SEC.
DESCRIPTION

|
|
|

FORMS
OF SECURITIES
Each
debt security, warrant, right and unit will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular investor
or by one or more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Certificated securities in definitive form and global
securities will be issued in registered form. Definitive securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order
to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or your nominee must
physically deliver the securities to the trustee, registrar, paying agent or other agent, as applicable. Global securities name a depositary
or its nominee as the owner of the debt securities, warrants or units represented by these global securities. The depositary maintains
a computerized system that will reflect each investor’s beneficial ownership of the securities through an account maintained by
the investor with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below.
Registered
Global Securities
We
may issue the registered debt securities, warrants, rights and units in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that
will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that
depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations
equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global securities. Unless
and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred
except as a whole by and among the depositary for the registered global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of
the depositary or those nominees.
If
not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered
global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions
will apply to all depositary arrangements.
Ownership
of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the
depositary or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary
will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants’ accounts with the respective principal or face
amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution
of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will
be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect
to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants.
The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form.
These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.
So
long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the
case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes
under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered
global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names,
will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners
or holders of the securities under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, rights agreement or unit agreement. Accordingly, each
person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that registered
global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest,
to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, rights agreement or unit agreement. We understand
that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global
security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement,
rights agreement or unit agreement, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant
beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give
or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.
Principal,
premium, if any, and interest payments on debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to warrants, rights or units, represented
by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee,
as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Barfresh, the trustees, the warrant agents, the
rights agents, the unit agents or any other agent of Barfresh, agent of the trustees or agent of the warrant agents, rights agents or
unit agents will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial
ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial
ownership interests.
We
expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal,
premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders on that registered global security, will
immediately credit participants’ accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in that registered
global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests
in a registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices,
as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,”
and will be the responsibility of those participants.
If
the depositary for any of these securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue
as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary registered as a clearing
agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the
registered global security that had been held by the depositary. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered
global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the relevant trustee, warrant agent, unit agent
or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary’s instructions will be based upon directions received
by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been
held by the depositary.
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
We
may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:
|
● |
through
underwriters or dealers; |
|
|
|
|
● |
directly
to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser; |
|
|
|
|
● |
through
agents; |
|
|
|
|
● |
through
a combination of any such methods; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
through
any other methods described in a prospectus supplement. |
The
prospectus supplement will state the terms of the offering of the securities, including:
|
● |
the
name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
purchase price of such securities and the proceeds to be received by Barfresh, if any; |
|
|
|
|
● |
any
underwriting discounts or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters’ or agents’ compensation; |
|
|
|
|
● |
any
public offering price; |
|
|
|
|
● |
any
discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
any
securities exchanges on which the securities may be listed. |
Any
public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
If
we use underwriters in the sale, the securities may be acquired by the underwriters for their own account or as selling agent and may
be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including:
|
● |
negotiated
transactions, |
|
|
|
|
● |
at
a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed, |
|
|
|
|
● |
at
market prices prevailing at the time of sale, |
|
|
|
|
● |
at
prices related to prevailing market prices or |
|
|
|
|
● |
at
negotiated prices. |
Unless
otherwise stated in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any securities will be conditioned on customary
closing conditions and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities, if any are purchased.
We
may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale
of the securities and any commissions we pay to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its
appointment.
We
may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities from us at the public
offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a
specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the
prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.
Underwriters
and agents may be entitled under agreements entered into with us to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to
make. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us and its affiliates in the
ordinary course of business.
Each
series of securities will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market other than the common stock, which
is quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in
the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice.
The securities, other than the common stock, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange.
LEGAL
OPINIONS
The
validity of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered will be passed on for us by Doida Crow Legal LLC, Denver,
Colorado 80237.
EXPERTS
The
financial statements incorporated in this prospectus by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022
have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of Eide Bailly LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the
authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
LIMITATION
ON LIABILITY AND DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our
directors and officers are indemnified by our bylaws against amounts actually and necessarily incurred by them in connection with the
defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they are a party by reason of being or having been directors or officers of the company.
Our articles of incorporation provide that none of our directors or officers shall be personally liable for damages for breach of any
fiduciary duty as a director or officer involving any act or omission of any such director or officer. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to such directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other
than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by such director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any
action, lawsuit or proceeding, is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
we will, unless in the opinion of 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
WHERE
YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION
This
prospectus and any subsequent prospectus supplements do not contain all of the information in the registration statement. We have omitted
from this prospectus some parts of the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. Statements in this
prospectus concerning any document we have filed as an exhibit to the registration statement or that we otherwise filed with the SEC
are not intended to be comprehensive and are qualified in their entirety by reference to these filings. In addition, we file annual,
quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. The SEC also maintains a website that contains reports,
