We have based our forward-looking statements on management’s current expectations and projections about trends affecting our business and industry and other future events. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Forward-looking statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause our future business, financial condition, results of operations or performance to differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements are described under the heading “Risk Factors” on page 6 of this prospectus, as well as the risks and uncertainties described in any applicable prospectus supplement and in the documents that we incorporate by reference herein or therein. In addition, actual results may differ as a result of additional risks and uncertainties of which we are currently unaware or which we do not currently view as material to our business.

 

You should read this prospectus in its entirety, together with any accompanying prospectus supplements, the documents that we file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and the documents that we incorporate by reference into this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplements, in each case with the understanding that our future results may be materially different from what we currently expect.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

The following is a summary of all material characteristics of our capital stock as set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”) and amended and restated bylaws (“Bylaws”). The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to our previous SEC filings. For more information, see the headings “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” and “Where You Can Find More Information.”

 

Common Stock

 

We may issue shares of our common stock from time to time. We are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of September 4 , 2018, there were 18,948,725 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor. Upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets which are legally available for distribution after payment of all debts and other liabilities and liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The outstanding shares of common stock are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we might designate in the future.

 

Preferred Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of September 4 , 2018, no shares of our preferred stock were outstanding. Each share of preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which each share of preferred stock could be converted at the record date for determination of the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters, or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited, such votes to be counted together with all other shares of stock having general voting power and not separately as a class. The terms of any series of preferred stock will be set forth in an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation. This prospectus does not cover the offer or sale of any shares of our preferred stock.

 

Delaware Law and Certain Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain a number of provisions that could make our acquisition by means of a tender or exchange offer, a proxy contest or otherwise more difficult. Certain of these provisions are summarized below:

 

·Under our Bylaws, only the board of directors, the chairperson of the board, the chief executive officer or president (in the absence of a chief executive officer) may call special meetings of stockholders.

 

·Our Bylaws establish advance notice procedures for stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board.

 

·We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within the prior three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.

 

·Our Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the right of stockholders to act by written consent without a meeting.

 

·Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

 

 

 

 

 

 10 
 

 

The amendment of many of the provisions described above would require approval by holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of our common stock.

Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market and traded under the symbol “LTRX.” On September 7, 2018, the last reported sale price for our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market was $5.94 per share.

The table sets forth certain information with respect to each of the selling stockholders, including (i) the identity of the selling stockholder, (ii) the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder before this offering, (iii) the number of shares of our common stock being offered by the selling stockholder in this offering, and (iv) the number and percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder upon completion of this offering, assuming that all of the shares being offered by this prospectus are sold.

The information in the table and accompanying footnotes is based on information made available to us by the selling stockholders. Under applicable SEC rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares of common stock as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power, and any shares of common stock which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of September 4, 2018 through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, or through the conversion of any convertible security. The percentage of shares beneficially owned is based on 18,948,725 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of September 4, 2018.

All of the shares being registered for resale by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus were issued and outstanding prior to the original date of filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part .

     

The registration of the shares of common stock set forth in the table does not mean that the selling stockholders will sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of those securities. The selling stockholders may sell any, all or none of the securities offered by this prospectus, and we do not know when or in what amount the selling stockholders may sell their shares of common stock hereunder following the effective date of this registration statement. Information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to time and, if necessary, we will amend or supplement this prospectus as required by SEC rules.

 

Stock Purchase Agreement with Hale Capital

 

In 2016, we entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with, and consummated a private placement of 1,941,748 shares of our common stock to HCP. The offer and sale of the shares were not registered under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

 

In June 2016, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, we appointed Mr. Hale as a member of our Board of Directors.

 

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement registering the resale of the shares issued to HCP under the Stock Purchase Agreement. We previously filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC (Filing No. 333-215090), which was declared effective on January 10, 2017. HCP has not sold any shares pursuant to the registration statement.

 

We have customary obligations under the Stock Purchase Agreement to indemnify for losses incurred by the initial selling stockholder in connection with any untrue statements of material fact or material omissions in the registration statement and for certain violations of securities and other similar laws.

 

No Material Relationships

 

Except as described above, there are no material relationships between us and any of the selling stockholders, and there have been no material relationships within the past three years. In addition, we have been advised that none of the selling stockholders is, or is affiliated with, any broker-dealer or underwriter.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We or any selling stockholders may sell the securities offered through this prospectus from time to time in any manner permitted by the Securities Act, including:

 

·through agents;
·to or through underwriters;
·to or through broker-dealers (acting as agent or principal);
·in “at the market” offerings, within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise;
·directly to purchasers, through a specific bidding or auction process or otherwise; and/or
·through a combination of any of these methods.

 

Agents, underwriters or broker-dealers may be paid compensation for offering and selling securities on behalf of us or the selling stockholders. That compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions to be received from us or the selling stockholders, from the purchasers of the securities or from both us and the purchasers. Any underwriters, dealers, agents or other investors participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters,” as that term is defined in the Securities Act, and compensation and profits received by them on sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting commissions, as that term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

Each time we or any selling stockholders sell securities, we or any selling stockholders will describe the method of distribution of the securities in the prospectus supplement relating to such transaction. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the offering and will, to the extent applicable, describe or identify:

 

·the purchase price of the securities;
·the names of any underwriters or agents;
·any compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, commissions or otherwise received from us or the selling stockholders by each such underwriter or agent and in the aggregate to all underwriters and agents;
·the net proceeds from the sale of the securities;
·if applicable, the names of the selling stockholders;
·the amounts underwritten or to be sold through the agent;
·the nature of the underwriter’s or agent’s obligation to take the securities; and
·any delayed delivery arrangements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 14 
 

 

The securities may be sold at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The distribution of the securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, by means of one or more of the following transactions, which may include cross or block trades:

 

·transactions on the NASDAQ Capital Market or any other organized market where the securities may be traded;
·in the over-the-counter market;
·in negotiated transactions; or
·under delayed delivery contracts or other contractual commitments.

 

If underwriters are used in a sale, securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions. Our securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. If an underwriter or underwriters are used in the sale of securities, an underwriting agreement will be executed with the underwriter or underwriters at the time an agreement for the sale is reached. This prospectus and the prospectus supplement will be used by the underwriters to resell the securities.

 

We may indemnify agents, underwriters and dealers against specified liabilities, including liabilities incurred under the Securities Act, or to contribution by us to payments they may be required to make in respect of such liabilities. Agents, underwriters or dealers, or their respective affiliates, may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us or our respective affiliates, in the ordinary course of business.

 

Certain persons participating in the offering may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). We make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that such transactions may have on the price of the securities. For a description of these activities, see the information under the heading “Underwriting” (or similar heading) in the applicable prospectus supplement.

 

To comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities offered by this prospectus will be offered and sold in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.

ITEM 14. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION.

 

The following table sets forth an itemization of the various costs and expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, payable by us in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered hereunder. All of the amounts shown are estimated except for the SEC registration fee.

 

SEC registration fee  $ 6,307.17  
FINRA filing fees  $* 
Legal fees and expenses  $* 
Accounting fees and expenses  $* 
Miscellaneous  $* 
Total expenses  $* 

 

*These fees and expenses depend on several factors, including the number of separate issuances of our common stock, and accordingly cannot be estimated at this time.

 

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duties as directors to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. The effect of this provision of our Certificate of Incorporation, as permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, is to eliminate our rights and those of our stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on behalf of our Company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute.

 

In addition, as permitted by Section 145, our Bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers and persons serving in these capacities in other business enterprises (including, for example, our subsidiaries) at our request, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in those circumstances in which indemnification would otherwise be discretionary. Our Bylaws also provide that we may, in our discretion, indemnify our employees and agents in circumstances where indemnification is not required by law. The rights conferred in the Bylaws are not exclusive, and we are authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors, executive officers and employees. We may not retroactively amend our Bylaw provisions in a way that reduces the protections of the directors, officers and employees who benefit from these provisions.

 

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that provide the maximum indemnity allowed under Section 145 and our Bylaws, as well as certain additional procedural protections. We have also purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that provides coverage against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us 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.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
   
(i)To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
   
(ii)To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the 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 SEC 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 Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

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

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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, 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 to any purchaser:

 

(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

 

(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)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act 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 the 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.

 

 

 

 II-3 
 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(6)That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(7)Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 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 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
