[424B5] Brera Holdings PLC Prospectus Supplement (Debt Securities)
Brera Holdings PLC, now operating as Solmate Infrastructure, is launching an at-the-market offering of up to $98,500,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares through Cantor Fitzgerald as sales agent. The shares trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “SLMT”, and Cantor will receive a 3.0% commission on gross proceeds. Based on an assumed price of $7.79, the company illustrates issuance of 12,644,415 shares, which would bring total Class B shares outstanding to 94,639,180 and cause meaningful dilution to new investors. Net proceeds are intended for working capital, general corporate purposes, and particularly to pursue a new Solana-focused digital asset treasury policy, including additional SOL purchases and staking. The company recently raised about $300 million in a September 2025 PIPE transaction and plans to concentrate a significant portion of its balance sheet in SOL, using options and swaps to hedge and third-party custodians and validators to manage custody, staking and liquidity.

Company Overview
Brera Holdings is an Irish holding company focused on multi-club ownership (“MCO”) and expanding its global portfolio of men’s and women’s sports clubs with increased opportunities to earn tournament prizes, gain sponsorships, obtain transfer fees and provide other professional football- and sports-related consulting services.
We seek to build on the legacy and brand of Brera FC, the first football club that we acquired in July 2022. Brera FC, known as “The Third Team of Milan,” is an amateur football association which has been building an alternative football legacy since its founding in 2000. In March 2023, we expanded to Africa with the establishment of Brera Tchumene FC, a team admitted to the Second Division League in Mozambique, a country of nearly 32 million people. Brera Tchumene FC was promoted to Mocambola (First Division for Mozambique), for the 2024 season. In February 2025 we decided to pause operations of Brera Tchumene FC due to the geopolitical situation in the country, deciding instead to further invest in the Mozambican football team Black Bulls, the current champion of the Mocambola league. In April 2023, we acquired 90% of the European first division football team Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev in North Macedonia, a country with participation rights in two major Union of European Football Association (“UEFA”) competitions, the Europa League and the Europa Conference League, and rebranded the team Brera Strumica FC. In June 2023, we acquired, through open market purchases, a strategic stake in Manchester United PLC, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and a portion of our stake was subject to a tender offer by Sir Jim Radcliffe and sold at a 74% realized gain in February 2024.
On June 17, 2025, we sold our 48.94% interest in Italian Serie A1 women’s professional volleyball team, UYBA Volley S.s.d.a.r.l and no longer have volleyball teams in our portfolio. In September 2023, we assumed control of Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a team in the Mongolian National Premier League, which became Brera Ilch FC when the football season resumed in March 2024. In February 2024, we established the Brera Holdings Advisory Board, whose current members are Major League Soccer founder and World Cup director Alan Rothenberg, luxury lifestyle executive Massimo Ferragamo, sports business leaders Paul Tosetti and Marshall Geller, Italian football icon Giuseppe Rossi, and economist Arthur Laffer. In July 2024, we established a joint stock company for the North Macedonian women’s football club Tiverija Strumica, now known as Brera Tiverija FC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brera Strumica FC. From December 2024, until June 2025 we acquired 52% of the Italian Serie B football club Juve Stabia. In October 2025, we decided to cease operations in Mozambique and Mongolia.

Recent Developments
Our Solana Treasury Strategy
Adoption of a Solana Treasury Policy
We have adopted a treasury policy (the “Treasury Policy”) under which the principal holding in our treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital assets, starting with Solana (“SOL”). Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved our new Treasury Policy on September 21, 2025, authorizing long-term accumulation of SOL.
On September 23, 2025, we entered into a strategic advisor agreement, which was subsequently amended on October 31, 2025 (as amended, the “Strategic Advisor Agreement”) with Tarek Alnuaimi, Guy Hirsch, Keren Maimon, Ron Sade and Alyazi Almheiri (the “Strategic Advisors”) pursuant to which the Strategic Advisors will provide strategic advice and guidance relating to our business, operations, growth initiatives and industry trends in the cryptocurrency technology sector. We also intend to stake our treasury assets with one or more SOL validator service providers.
In addition to operating our sports club business, our management will focus its resources on our Treasury Policy and a significant portion of the balance sheet will be allocated to holding SOL in our digital asset treasury.
Currently our Treasury Policy is primarily dedicated to SOL, and we do not intend to allocate treasury assets to other digital assets in the near term. As a result, our assets are highly concentrated in a single digital asset. Adverse developments specific to SOL, its protocol, or its ecosystem could have a disproportionate impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We hedge our SOL holdings with a mix of call options, put options as well as other derivatives via total return swaps.
Our Treasury Policy is intended to bring value to our stockholders through the following:
| ● | utilizing intelligent capital markets issuances, including the issuance of both equity and convertible debt, where we may issue capital for the benefit of stockholders to purchase and hold more SOL; |
| ● | staking the majority of the SOL in our treasury to earn a staking yield and turn the treasury into a productive asset; |
| ● | purchasing locked SOL at a discount to the current spot price; and |
| ● | selling our SOL holdings, whether on the open market, through block trades, or other negotiated transactions, for various reasons and at various times, including, in order to repurchase our Class B Ordinary Shares when our Board believes such repurchases will result in accretive value creation for our shareholders and at such times when it is legally permissible to do so. |
We believe that SOL is the fastest and most used public blockchain in the world, processing more transactions and generating more onchain fee revenue than all other blockchains combined.
There can be no assurance that the value of SOL will increase, and investors should carefully consider the risks associated with digital assets.
How We Earn Staking Rewards
To earn staking rewards, we intend to delegate our SOL to third parties who we believe are leading SOL validators via Solana’s in-protocol delegation system while keeping the SOL held by third party custodians. This means we intend to deposit our SOL into a stake account, which is then delegated to a validator’s vote account. We intend to validators who are integrated into our qualified custodians’ platforms, allowing us to stake SOL to validators directly from our custody accounts. Of the validators that will be integrated into our qualified custodians, our team intends to stake to those who, in our opinion, have demonstrated a track record of high performance, high yield generation, and attractive delegator economics. We intend to use multiple validators to seek to maximize the return on our SOL treasury and to mitigate the risk of having only one or two validators for our treasury staking. We will also build our own validators or build in partnership with others and stake to these validators.
S-2
How We Manage Liquidity
We acknowledge that during the deactivation period, staked SOL is not earning rewards and is not yet liquid. We factor this into our liquidity and risk management framework.
Our intended staking program involves a temporary loss of transferability of staked SOL during the “deactivation” or cooldown period. Under normal conditions, we expect to regain complete control over un-staked SOL within approximately 48 hours; however, network conditions could extend this period. To mitigate liquidity risk, we intend to maintain a portion of our treasury in un-staked SOL and cash to meet short-term obligations. Our use of SOL options may involve margin requirements or collateral posting, which could reduce available liquidity. Option premiums paid or received may also create volatility in our near-term cash flows. A certain portion of our holdings is comprised of SOL that is programmatically locked by the FTX estate. As such the release of such locked SOL is outside our control.
Use of Custodians and Storage of SOL
We solely utilize third-party qualified custodians to hold our SOL, other than the portion of our SOL held through a single non-qualified custodian, as set forth below. We do not self-custody our SOL. We use qualified custodians that utilize risk management and operational best practices related to hot vs. cold storage, access controls, custody technology and insurance, among other practices. We are in the process of onboarding with other qualified custodians to ensure that we mitigate our SOL treasury risk through the use of several qualified custodians.
Our primary custodians generally maintain the majority of their custodied SOL holdings in cold storage (>95%), with hot wallets used only for limited operational purposes. Custodians employ SOC 2–audited security controls, geographic redundancy, multi-person approval processes, and conduct key-generation ceremonies in offline, secure facilities. Private keys are never exposed to networked devices. Custodians maintain insurance coverage, which is in addition to policies we maintain ourselves. Our custody agreements typically run for one to three years, may be terminated on 30 days’ notice, and include fees for storage and transactions. Our qualified custodians do not rehypothecate or otherwise use our SOL. We may self-custody our SOL in the future.
Use of DeFi Protocols
We may from time to time interact with decentralized finance (“DeFi”) protocols, either directly or indirectly through staking, validator operations, custody arrangements, or liquidity management activities. DeFi protocols generally rely on open-source smart contracts deployed on public blockchains, including SOL. While these smart contracts are intended to operate automatically according to their code, they may contain coding errors, vulnerabilities, or design flaws that can be exploited.
SOL - The Token of the Solana Blockchain
SOL is the native token of the Solana blockchain. SOL was created with an initial supply of 500 million SOL, though much of the initial supply was locked or earmarked for various use cases including the community, the foundation and investors. New SOL is brought into existence primarily through inflationary rewards distributed to validators and delegators. The SOL staking yield is made up of three primary components: inflationary rewards, transaction/priority fees, and maximal extractable value. Inflationary rewards started out at 8.0%, and are currently 4.3%, and will fall 15% every epoch-year until they reach a long-term floor of 1.5%. Unlock schedules applicable to these allocations may periodically increase circulating supply, creating potential selling pressure and adversely affecting the price of SOL. Historically, 50% of all transaction fees were burned (with the other 50% going to the validator), but now all transaction fees go to the validator after the passage and adoption of the Solana Improvement Document 96.
S-3
How SOL is Used
SOL is used as part of Solana’s proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. In general, proof-of-stake blockchains have block producers called validators that run nodes, bond or stake the protocol’s native token, propose blocks when chosen to do so, and validate/sign the transactions and blocks of others when not. Validators are chosen to produce a block in proportion to their stake, which makes it extremely costly for bad actors to attempt to control the network and add invalid transactions to the blockchain. Validators receive staking rewards for the work they perform, which further incentivizes validators to behave properly, as they would otherwise miss out on such rewards. Other proof-of-stake networks often “slash” some or all of a validator’s stake if it intentionally or unintentionally performs its duties poorly, for example, by double-signing a transaction, though Solana has not implemented slashing at this time. In addition to its use within consensus, SOL is also a “gas token”, meaning that users of the Solana blockchain pay SOL to validators (and delegators) as compensation for processing their transactions.
We see three particularly notable items giving Solana a technical advantage compared to many smart contract blockchain peers. Solana’s proof-of-history gives validators a notion of time and allows them to produce blocks without requiring the network to first agree upon the current block, resulting in speed advantages. Further, unlike peer blockchains that often use single-threaded virtual machines, Solana enables parallel transaction execution to increase throughput and take advantage of future hardware improvements resulting from increased CPU core counts. In addition, Solana is optimized for speed and security, and is naturally growing into decentralization as hardware and bandwidth costs fall over time, positioning it well along the Blockchain Trilemma.
While Solana Labs and the Solana Foundation have played important roles in the development of the Solana ecosystem, no single entity owns or controls the Solana network. However, concentration of influence in these entities, particularly in early-stage protocol governance, presents risks that investors should consider.
The Solana Ecosystem
Solana’s performance and technical capabilities enable many use cases from DeFi to decentralized physical infrastructure networks, AI agents, social media, gaming, stablecoins, real-world assets, among others. We believe Solana is advantaged by best-in-class technology and strong network effects that have attracted a large, growing, and vibrant ecosystem of users, developers, and decentralized applications.
Regulations
Depending on the regulatory characterization of Solana, the markets for cryptocurrency in general, and our activities in particular, our business and our Solana acquisition strategy may be subject to regulation by one or more regulators in the United States and globally. Ongoing and future regulatory actions may alter, to a materially adverse extent, the nature of digital assets markets, the participation of industry participants, including service providers and financial institutions in these markets, and our ability to pursue our SOL strategy. Additionally, U.S. state and federal and foreign regulators and legislatures have taken action against industry participants, including digital assets businesses, and enacted restrictive regimes in response to adverse publicity arising from hacks, consumer harm, or criminal activity stemming from digital assets activity. U.S. federal and state energy regulatory authorities are also monitoring the total electricity consumption of cryptocurrency mining, and the potential impacts of cryptocurrency mining to the supply and dispatch functionality of the wholesale grid and retail distribution systems. Many state legislative bodies have passed, or are actively considering, legislation to address the impact of cryptocurrency mining in their respective states.
The Commodities Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) takes the position that some digital assets fall within the definition of a “commodity” under the Commodities Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “CEA”). Under the CEA, the CFTC has broad enforcement authority to police market manipulation and fraud in spot digital assets markets in which we may transact. Beyond instances of fraud or manipulation, the CFTC generally does not oversee cash or spot market exchanges or transactions involving digital asset commodities that do not utilize margin, leverage, or financing. In addition, CFTC regulations and CFTC oversight and enforcement authority apply with respect to futures, swaps, other derivative products and certain retail leveraged commodity transactions involving digital asset commodities, including the markets on which these products trade.
S-4
In addition, because transactions in SOL provide a degree of anonymity, they are susceptible to misuse for criminal activities, such as money laundering. This misuse, or the perception of such misuse, could lead to greater regulatory oversight of SOL and SOL platforms, and there is the possibility that law enforcement agencies could close SOL platforms or other SOL-related infrastructure with little or no notice and prevent users from accessing or retrieving SOL held via such platforms or infrastructure.
As noted above, activities involving SOL and other digital assets may fall within the jurisdiction of more than one financial regulator and various courts and such laws and regulations are rapidly evolving and increasing in scope The laws and regulations applicable to SOL and digital assets are evolving and subject to interpretation and change.
Governments around the world have reacted differently to digital assets; certain governments have deemed them illegal, and others have allowed their use and trade without restriction, while in some jurisdictions, such as the U.S., digital assets are subject to overlapping, uncertain and evolving regulatory requirements.
As digital assets have grown in both popularity and market size, the U.S. Executive Branch, Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies, including the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, the CFTC, the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Internal Revenue Service and state financial regulators, have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and digital asset exchanges, with particular focus on the extent to which digital assets can be used to violate state or federal laws, including to facilitate the laundering of proceeds of illegal activities or the funding of criminal or terrorist enterprises, and the safety and soundness and consumer-protective safeguards of exchanges or other service-providers that hold, transfer, trade or exchange digital assets for users. Many of these state and federal agencies have issued consumer advisories regarding the risks posed by digital assets to investors. In addition, federal and state agencies, and other countries have issued rules or guidance regarding the treatment of digital asset transactions and requirements for businesses engaged in activities related to digital assets.
September 2025 PIPE Transaction
Securities Purchase Agreements
On September 18, 2025, we entered into securities purchase agreements (the “PIPE Securities Purchase Agreements”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers in a private placement offering (the “PIPE Offering”) an aggregate offering of (i) a combination of 61,505,516 shares of the Company’s Class B Ordinary Shares, with a nominal value of $0.05 per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”), and Class B Ordinary Share purchase warrants (the “PIPE Common Warrants”) to purchase 61,505,516 Class B Ordinary Shares, at a combined offering price of $4.50 per Class B Ordinary Share and PIPE Common Warrant to purchase one Class B Ordinary Share and (ii) a combination of pre-funded warrants (the “PIPE Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 5,161,152 Class B Ordinary Shares and PIPE Common Warrants to purchase 5,161,152 Class B Ordinary Shares, at a combined offering price of $4.45 per PIPE Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase one Class B Ordinary Share and PIPE Common Warrant to purchase one Class B Ordinary Share.
The PIPE Common Warrants will be immediately exercisable for 36 months after issuance at an exercise price of $6.75 per share. The PIPE Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the PIPE Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the PIPE Offering are exercised in full at an exercise price of $0.05 per share. Each Purchaser’s ability to exercise its PIPE Pre-Funded Warrants and PIPE Common Warrants, as applicable, in exchange for Class B Ordinary Shares is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations set forth therein.
The PIPE Offering closed on September 23, 2025, with aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $300 million, which amount was paid in cash, USD Coin, Tether, or SOL (or a combination thereof).

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks described below and in the “Risk Factors” contained in the accompanying base prospectus and discussed under the sections captioned “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, as filed with the SEC, as well as any amendment or updates to our risk factors reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, including the risk factors described in Exhibit 99.3 to our Report on Form 6-K, filed with the SEC on September 26, 2025, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus, and the information and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, and in any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of the Class B Ordinary Shares to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to This Offering and Ownership of Our Class B Ordinary Shares
If you purchase shares of Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of your investment.
The price per share of our Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering may exceed the net tangible book value per share of our Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding prior to this offering. Therefore, if you purchase Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering, you may pay a price per share that substantially exceeds our net tangible book value per share after this offering. Assuming that an aggregate of 12,644,415 Class B Ordinary Shares are sold at a price of $7.79 per share, the last reported sale price per Class B Ordinary Share on Nasdaq on November 12, 2025, for aggregate proceeds to us of approximately $98,500,000 after deducting sales commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us, you will experience immediate dilution of $4.07 per share, representing the difference between our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of June 30, 2025, after giving effect to this offering and the assumed offering price of $7.79 per share. The exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants may result in further dilution of your investment. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed illustration of the dilution you would incur if you participate in this offering.
It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares we will sell under the Sales Agreement, or the actual gross proceeds resulting from those sales.
Subject to certain limitations in the Sales Agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a placement notice to Cantor at any time throughout the term of the Sales Agreement. The number of shares that are sold to or through Cantor after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the market price of the Class B Ordinary Shares during the sales period, the limits we set with Cantor in any applicable placement notice, and the demand for our Class B Ordinary Shares during the sales period. Because the price per share of each share sold will fluctuate during the sales period, it is not currently possible to predict the number of shares that will be sold or the actual gross proceeds to be raised in connection with those sales.
The Class B Ordinary Shares offered hereby will be sold in “at the market offerings,” and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.
Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different levels of dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices, and numbers of shares sold in this offering. In addition, there is no minimum sales price above par value or maximum sales price for shares to be sold in this offering. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase in this offering as a result of sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.
S-9
Our management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering may invest or otherwise use the proceeds in ways with which you may not agree or in ways that may not yield a return.
Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from any offering by us and could use the proceeds for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of the offering, including in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our Class B Ordinary Shares. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that have a material adverse effect on our business or cause the price of our Class B Ordinary Shares to decline, delay the development of additional products and services and our pursuit of our new SOL strategy. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.
Future sales of our Class B Ordinary Shares, or the perception in the public markets that these sales may occur, could cause the market price for our Class B Ordinary Shares to decline.
In order to raise additional capital, we may at any time, including during the pendency of this offering, offer additional Class B Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Class B Ordinary Shares at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less 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 Class B Ordinary Shares, or securities convertible or exchangeable into Class B Ordinary Shares, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering.
In addition, sales of a substantial number of Class B Ordinary Shares in the public market could occur at any time, subject to the restrictions and limitations described below. If our stockholders sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell, substantial amounts of our Class B Ordinary Shares in the public market following this offering, the market price of our Class B Ordinary Shares could decline significantly and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities.
We have reserved 9,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares for issuance under our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, and as of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have 5,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares available to be issued. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of Class B Ordinary Shares or the availability of Class B Ordinary Shares for sale will have on the market price of our Class B Ordinary Shares prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of Class B Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that those sales will occur, could cause the market price of our Class B Ordinary Shares.
S-10
USE OF PROCEEDS
We may issue and sell from time to time Class B Ordinary Shares having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $98,500,000. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. There can be no assurance that we will sell any Class B Ordinary Shares under or fully utilize the Sales Agreement with the Agent as a source of financing.
We intend to use the net proceeds, from the sale of the Class B Ordinary Shares offered in this offering, if any, for general corporate purposes, which include, among other things:
| ● | working capital; | |
| ● | the pursuit of our new SOL Treasury Policy, including the purchase of additional SOL; and |
| ● | acquisitions of businesses, assets or technologies that complement our current business, but we have not yet identified any target acquisitions. |
We have not determined the specific amount of the net proceeds to be used for such purposes. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from the sale of the Class B Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus supplement.
S-11
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our ordinary shares. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future. We may also enter into credit agreements or other borrowing arrangements in the future that will restrict our ability to declare or pay cash dividends. Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant, and will be subject to compliance with applicable laws, including the Irish Companies Act, which requires Irish companies to have distributable reserves available for distribution equal to or greater than the amount of the proposed dividend. In addition, any distribution of dividends must be in accordance with the rules and restrictions applying under Irish law.

S-13
DILUTION
Our net tangible book value was approximately $(18.9) million, or approximately $(10.35) per Class B Ordinary Share, as of June 30, 2025. Our net tangible book value represents the amount of our total consolidated tangible assets (which is calculated by subtracting intangible assets, goodwill and deferred tax assets from our total consolidated assets), less the amount of our total consolidated liabilities. Dilution is determined by subtracting pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per Class B Ordinary Share as of June 30, 2025 from the assumed offering price of $7.79 per share, which was the last reported sale price of our Class B Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on November 12, 2025.
After giving effect to the net issuance of an aggregate of 80,168,844 Class B Ordinary Shares in various transactions after June 30, 2025 for aggregate net cash proceeds of approximately $271 million (the “Pro Forma Adjustments”), our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025, would have been approximately $252 million, or approximately $3.09 per share. This amount represents an increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $13.44 per share to existing shareholders.
After giving further effect to the sale of 12,644,415 Class B Ordinary Shares at an assumed per share offering price of $7.79 (which was the last reported sale price of our Class B Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on November 12, 2025 and assuming that the maximum amount of Class B Ordinary Shares are sold under the Sales Agreement and this prospectus supplement) and the receipt of aggregate proceeds of approximately $98,500,000, and after deducting the sales agent commissions and our estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2025, would have been approximately $350.5 million, or approximately $3.72 per share. This amount represents an increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $0.63 per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $4.07 per share to investors purchasing Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering, as illustrated in the following table.

| Dilution per share to new investors purchasing Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering | $ | 4.07 |
The proforma as adjusted net tangible book value per Class B Ordinary Share as of June 30, 2025 and the dilution per share to new investors purchasing Class B Ordinary Shares in this offering is based on 1,825,921 Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2025, and excludes, as of such date:
| ● | 10,500 Class B Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding held by the representative of the underwriters in the Company’s initial public offering, at a weighted-average exercise price of $50.00 per share; and |
| ● | 10,745 Class B Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding held by the Company’s legacy shareholders, at a weighted-average exercise price of $13.50 per share. | |
| ● | 16,000 Class B Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A preferred stock outstanding, at a weighted-average conversion price of $6.25 per share; and | |
| ● | 5,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares reserved for future issuance under our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. |
Unless otherwise stated, outstanding share information throughout this prospectus supplement excludes such outstanding securities and assumes no exercise, conversion or vesting, as applicable, of the outstanding securities described above.
The pro forma and pro forma as adjusted information discussed above is illustrative only. Our net tangible book value following the completion of this offering is subject to further adjustment based on the actual offering price of the Class B Ordinary Shares and the number of Class B Ordinary Shares sold.
To the extent that outstanding securities are exercised, converted or vested, as applicable, you may experience further dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity, your ownership will be further diluted.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL
The description of our authorized share capital and our outstanding securities as of the date of the filing of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”) is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 2.1 to the 2024 Annual Report, and supplemented or updated as follows and as updated by our recently amended Constitution, which is contained in Appendix A to our proxy statement that was filed with the SEC on August 29, 2025 as Exhibit 99.1 to our Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, which is incorporated by reference:
General
The authorized share capital of the Company consists of 10,080,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 5,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a nominal value of $0.05 each, (ii) 10,025,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a nominal value of $0.05 each, and (iii) 50,000,000 preferred shares with a nominal value of $0.005 each of which 10,000,000 are designated as Series A Preferred Shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) and 2,500,000 are designated as Series B Preferred Shares (the “Series B Preferred Shares”).
As of November 12, 2025, there were 81,994,765 Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding and no Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding.
Preferred Shares
Under our constitution, we are authorized to issue, without shareholder approval, up to 50,000,000 preferred shares, issuable in one or more series, and, subject to the provisions of the Irish Companies Act, having such designations, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions, including dividend and voting rights, as our board of directors may determine and as further set out in the constitution, and such rights and privileges, including dividend and voting rights, may be superior to those of the ordinary shares. The issuance of preferred shares, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company and might adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares and the voting and other rights of the holders of ordinary shares.
Our board of directors has designated the Series A Preferred Shares and the Series B Preferred Shares (together, the “Designated Preferred Shares”). The voting rights of the Designated Preferred Shares are limited to protective provisions, requiring consent for issuance of senior securities and material adverse amendments. The Designated Preferred Shares rank senior to our ordinary shares in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or other distribution of our assets among our shareholders and the holders are entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the original issue price plus any accrued but unpaid dividends before any distribution to the holders of our ordinary shares. The holders of Designated Preferred Shares are entitled to receive dividends as and when recommended and declared by our board of directors or declared by our shareholders on a pari passu basis with our ordinary shares according to the number of Class B Ordinary Shares then issuable to such holders upon conversion of the Designated Preferred Shares. Each Designated Preferred Share is convertible into 0.8 Class B Ordinary Shares at the option of the holder, subject to adjustment as described in its respective certificate of designation. The Series A Preferred Shares are redeemable by us, commencing on the first anniversary of the original issue date, at 150% of the original issue price, payable in cash or Class B Ordinary Shares. The Series B Preferred Shares are not redeemable by us. As of November 12, 2025, there were 20,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (convertible into 16,000 Class B Ordinary Shares) and no outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
S-15

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We entered into the Sales Agreement with Cantor on November 18, 2025. Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell up to $98,500,000 of our Class B Ordinary Shares from time to time to or through Cantor, acting as principal and/or sales agent. A copy of the Sales Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to a current report on Form 6-K and will be incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.
Upon delivery of a placement notice to Cantor and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, Cantor may sell our Class B Ordinary Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act. We may instruct Cantor not to sell our Class B Ordinary Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us from time to time. We or Cantor may suspend the offering of our Class B Ordinary Shares upon notice and subject to other conditions.
We will pay Cantor for its services in acting as agent in the sale of our Class B Ordinary Shares in connection with this offering, a commission, in cash, at a rate equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share issued by us and sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition of this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse Cantor for certain specified fees and documented expenses, including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of the counsel to Cantor in an amount not to exceed (a) $150,000 in connection with the execution of the Sales Agreement, (b) $25,000 per calendar quarter thereafter payable in connection with each representation date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, and (c) $40,000 for each program “refresh” (filing of a new registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement relating to the shares of Class B Ordinary Shares and/or an amendment of the Sales Agreement) executed pursuant to the Sales Agreement. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding compensation payable to Cantor pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, will be approximately $400,000.
Settlement for sales of our Class B Ordinary Shares will occur on the business day immediately following the date on which any sales are made, or on such other date that is agreed upon by us and Cantor in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. Sales of our Class B Ordinary Shares as contemplated in this prospectus supplement will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and Cantor may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
Cantor will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the Class B Ordinary Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sales Agreement. In connection with the potential future sales of Class B Ordinary Shares on our behalf, Cantor will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation of Cantor will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Cantor and specified other persons against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.
We will report at least quarterly the number of our shares of Class B Ordinary Shares sold under the Sales Agreement and the net proceeds to us in connection with such sales of our Class B Ordinary Shares.
The offering of our Class B Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. We and Cantor may each terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon ten days’ prior notice.
Cantor and its affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which services they may in the future receive customary fees. To the extent required by Regulation M, Cantor will not engage in any market-making activities involving our Class B Ordinary Shares while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus supplement.
We have granted to Cantor the right to act as a lead underwriter, initial purchaser and/or placement agent, as applicable, in any public or private offering in accordance with the terms of that certain engagement letter dated September 15, 2025, between the Company and Cantor. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), such “right of first refusal” shall not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales of this offering.
This prospectus supplement may be made available in electronic format on a website maintained by Cantor, and Cantor may distribute this prospectus supplement electronically.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights selected information that is presented in greater detail elsewhere, or incorporated by reference, in this prospectus. It does not contain all of the information that may be important to you and your investment decision. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including the matters set forth under the section of this prospectus captioned “Risk Factors” and the financial statements and related notes and other information that we incorporate by reference herein, including, but not limited to, our annual reports on Form 20-F and our other periodic reports. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “our company,” the “Company,” “Brera Holdings,” and similar references in this prospectus each refer to Brera Holdings PLC, a public company limited by shares incorporated in the Republic of Ireland and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Company Overview
The information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus summarizes certain information about our company. It may not contain all of the information that is important to you. To understand this offering fully, you should read carefully the entire prospectus and the other information incorporated by reference into this prospectus.
Brera Holdings PLC is an Irish holding company focused on expanding its social impact football (American soccer) business by developing a global portfolio of emerging football clubs and other sports clubs with increased opportunities to earn tournament prizes, gain sponsorships, and provide other professional football- and sports-related consulting services.
We seek to build on the legacy and brand of Brera FC, the first football club that we acquired in July 2022. Brera FC, known as “The Third Team of Milan,” is an amateur football association which has been building an alternative football legacy since its founding in 2000. The Company owns the trademarked FENIX Trophy Tournament, a non-professional pan-European football competition recognized by UEFA, inaugurated in September 2021 and organized by Brera FC. “FENIX” is an acronym for “Friendly European Non-professional Innovative Xenial.” BBC Sport has called the FENIX Trophy “the Champions League for amateurs,” and Brera FC hosted the 2023 finals at Milan’s legendary San Siro Stadium. In October 2022, the Internet Marketing Association at its IMPACT 22 Conference named Brera FC as its award recipient for “Social Impact Through Soccer,” recognizing the Company’s focus at an international level with this distinction.
In March 2023, we expanded to Africa with the establishment of Brera Tchumene FC, a team admitted to the Second Division League for the 2023 season in Mozambique, a country of nearly 32 million people. Brera Tchumene FC was promoted to the Moçambola, the First Division League, in November 2023, where it will play next season. In April 2023, we acquired 90% of the European first division football team Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev in North Macedonia, a country with participation rights in two major Union of European Football Association (“UEFA”) competitions.
In June 2023, we acquired, through open market purchases, a strategic stake in Manchester United PLC, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. In July 2023, we completed the acquisition of a majority ownership in the Italian Serie A1 women’s professional volleyball team UYBA Volley S.s.d.a.r.l. In September 2023, we assumed control of Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a team in the Mongolian National Premier League, which will become Brera Ilch FC when the football season resumes in March 2024.
In January 2024, we announced the launch of a proactive search for an Italian Serie B football club target designed to bring multi-club ownership of the highest tiers of professional sports ownership to mass investors through the Company’s Nasdaq-listed shares.
The Company is focused on bottom-up value creation from undervalued sports clubs and talent, innovation-powered business growth, and socially-impactful outcomes. We expect that our experience with innovative capital-raising and revenue-generating activities will draw further revenue in the form of consulting opportunities from football clubs, associations, investors and others.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Act of 2012, as amended, or the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and have elected to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.235 billion; (ii) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering; (iii) the date on which we have, during the preceding three year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which could occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. Once we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will not be entitled to the exemptions provided in the JOBS Act discussed above.
Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer
We are a “foreign private issuer” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act, including the proxy rules, which impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as frequently or as promptly as domestic U.S. companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act, and we are not required to comply with Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act, which imposes certain restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information. In addition, our officers, directors, and principal shareholders will be exempt from the requirements to report transactions in our equity securities and from the short-swing profit liability provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
3
In addition, as a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, for domestic U.S. issuers. We may take advantage of these home country exemptions, including the following:
| ● | Exemption from filing quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, from filing proxy solicitation materials on Schedule 14A or 14C in connection with annual or special meetings of shareholders, from providing current reports on Form 8-K disclosing significant events within four days of their occurrence, and from the disclosure requirements of Regulation FD. |
| ● | Exemption from Section 16 rules regarding sales of ordinary shares by insiders, which will provide less data in this regard than shareholders of U.S. companies that are subject to the Exchange Act. |
| ● | Exemption from the Nasdaq rules applicable to domestic issuers requiring disclosure within four business days of any determination to grant a waiver of the code of business conduct and ethics to directors and officers. Although we will require director approval of any such waiver, we may choose not to disclose the waiver in the manner set forth in the Nasdaq rules, as permitted by the foreign private issuer exemption. |
These exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections available to you in comparison to those applicable to U.S. domestic reporting companies.
Risk Factors Summary
There are a number of risks that you should consider and understand before making an investment decision regarding securities that we are offering. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this prospectus and, in particular, should evaluate the specific factors set forth or incorporated by reference in the section titled “Risk Factors” and before deciding whether to invest in our securities. These risks include, but are not limited to:
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Risks and uncertainties related to our business and industry include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● | Our business is substantially dependent on the popularity and/or competitive success of our acquired teams, which cannot be assured. |
| ● | We had a concentration of credit risk because we derived our revenue from a limited number of customers. |
| ● | We source our materials from a limited number of suppliers. If we lose one or more of the suppliers, our operation may be disrupted, and our results of operations may be adversely and materially impacted. |
| ● | If we are unable to maintain and enhance our brand and reputation, or if events occur that damage our brand and reputation, our ability to expand our fanbase, sponsors, and commercial partners or to sell significant quantities of our services may be impaired. |
| ● | Our business is dependent upon our ability to attract players and staff, including management, recruiters, and coaches for our acquired clubs. |
4
| ● | Injuries to, and illness of, players in our acquired clubs could hinder our success. |
| ● | We may pursue acquisitions and other strategic transactions to complement or expand our business that may not be successful. |
| ● | If we are unable to maintain, train and build an effective international sales and marketing infrastructure, we will not be able to commercialize and grow our brand successfully. | |
| ● | It may not be possible to renew or replace key commercial and sponsorship agreements on similar or better terms or attract new sponsors. | |
| ● | There could be a decline in the popularity of football. |
| ● | Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations and our operating results and cash flow can vary substantially from period to period. |
| ● | We operate in a highly competitive market and there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully. |
| ● | Our digital media strategy may not generate the revenue we anticipate. |
Risks Related to Our Securities
Risks and uncertainties related to our securities include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● | Our dual class voting structure has the effect of concentrating the voting control to holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares, which will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters, and your interests may conflict with the interests of these shareholders. It may also adversely affect the trading market for our Class B Ordinary Shares due to exclusion from certain stock market indices. |
| ● | Irish law differs from the laws in effect in the United States and U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing civil liabilities against us, our directors or members of our senior management. |
| ● | We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act and as such we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to U.S. domestic public companies. |
| ● | As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to rely on exemptions from certain Nasdaq corporate governance standards applicable to domestic U.S. issuers. This may afford less protection to holders of our shares. |
| ● | As a “controlled company” under the rules of Nasdaq, we may choose to exempt our company from certain corporate governance requirements that could have an adverse effect on our public shareholders. |
5
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. We operate in a highly competitive environment in which there are numerous factors which can influence our business, financial position or results of operations and which can also cause the market value of our Class B Ordinary Shares to decline. Many of these factors are beyond our control and therefore, are difficult to predict. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC, and in any applicable prospectus supplement and our other filings with the SEC and incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any prospectus supplement or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.

This prospectus contains or incorporates forward-looking statements within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act and section 21E of the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements are management’s beliefs and assumptions. In addition, other written or oral statements that constitute forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which we operate and statements may be made by or on our behalf. Words such as “should,” “could,” “may,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. There are a number of important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements.
We describe material risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could affect our business, including our financial condition and results of operations, under “Risk Factors” and may update our descriptions of such risks, uncertainties and assumptions in any prospectus supplement. We base our forward-looking statements on our management’s beliefs and assumptions based on information available to our management at the time the statements are made. We caution you that actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed, implied or forecast by our forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should be careful about relying on any forward-looking statements. Reference is made in particular to forward-looking statements regarding growth strategies, financial results, product and service development, competitive strengths, intellectual property rights, litigation, mergers and acquisitions, market acceptance or continued acceptance of our services, accounting estimates, financing activities, ongoing contractual obligations and sales efforts. Except as required under the federal securities laws, the rules and regulations of the SEC, stock exchange rules, and other applicable laws, regulations and rules, we do not have any intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements after the distribution of this prospectus, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions, or otherwise.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
The following is a summary of the general terms of the debt securities that we may issue and is not intended to be complete. If debt securities are issued, we will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the particular terms and provisions of any series of the debt securities and a description of how the general terms and provisions described below may apply to that series of the debt securities. The terms presented here, together with the terms in a related prospectus supplement, will be a description of the material terms of the debt securities. You should also read the indenture under which the debt securities are to be issued. We have filed a form of indenture governing different types of debt securities with the SEC as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. All capitalized terms have the meanings specified in the indenture.
We may issue, from time to time, debt securities, in one or more series, that will consist of senior debt, senior subordinated debt or subordinated debt. We refer to the subordinated debt securities and the senior subordinated debt securities together as the subordinated securities. The debt securities that we may offer will be issued under an indenture between us and an entity, identified in the applicable prospectus supplement, as trustee. Debt securities, whether senior, senior subordinated or subordinated, may be issued as convertible debt securities or exchangeable debt securities. The following is a summary of the material provisions of the indenture filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
As you read this section, please remember that for each series of debt securities, the specific terms of your debt security as described in the applicable prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in the summary below. The statement we make in this section may not apply to your debt security. Prospective investors should rely on information in the applicable prospectus supplement and not on the following information to the extent that the information in such prospectus supplement is different from the following information.
General Terms of the Indenture
The indenture does not limit the amount of debt securities that we may issue. It provides that we may issue debt securities up to the principal amount that we may authorize and may be in any currency or currency unit that we may designate. We may, without the consent of the holders of any series, increase the principal amount of securities in that series in the future, on the same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP numbers as that series. Except for the limitations on consolidation, merger and sale of all or substantially all of our assets contained in the indenture, the terms of the indenture do not contain any covenants or other provisions designed to give holders of any debt securities protection against changes in our operations, financial condition or transactions involving us.
We may issue the debt securities issued under the indenture as “discount securities,” which means they may be sold at a discount below their stated principal amount. These debt securities, as well as other debt securities that are not issued at a discount, may be issued with “original issue discount”, or OID, for U.S. federal income tax purposes because of interest payment and other characteristics. Material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to debt securities issued with original issue discount will be described in more detail in any applicable prospectus supplement.
The applicable prospectus supplement for a series of debt securities that we issue will describe, among other things, the following terms of the offered debt securities:
| ● | the title and authorized denominations of the series of debt securities; |
| ● | any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the series of debt securities; |
| ● | whether such debt securities will be issued in fully registered form without coupons or in a form registered as to principal only with coupons or in bearer form with coupons; |
9
| ● | whether issued in the form of one or more global securities and whether all or a portion of the principal amount of the debt securities is represented thereby; |
| ● | the price or prices at which the debt securities will be issued; |
| ● | the date or dates on which principal is payable; |
| ● | the place or places where and the manner in which principal, premium or interest, if any, will be payable and the place or places where the debt securities may be presented for transfer and, if applicable, conversion or exchange; |
| ● | interest rates, and the dates from which interest, if any, will accrue, and the dates when interest is payable and the maturity; |
| ● | the right, if any, to extend the interest payment periods and the duration of the extensions; |
| ● | our rights or obligations to redeem or purchase the debt securities; |
| ● | any sinking fund or other provisions that would obligate us to repurchase or otherwise redeem some or all of the debt securities; |
| ● | conversion or exchange provisions, if any, including conversion or exchange prices or rates and adjustments thereto; |
| ● | the currency or currencies of payment of principal or interest; |
| ● | the terms applicable to any debt securities issued at a discount from their stated principal amount; |
| ● | the terms, if any, under which any debt securities will rank junior to any of our other debt; |
| ● | whether and upon what terms the debt securities may be defeased, if different from the provisions set forth in the indenture; |
| ● | if the amount of payments of principal or interest is to be determined by reference to an index or formula, or based on a coin or currency other than that in which the debt securities are stated to be payable, the manner in which these amounts are determined and the calculation agent, if any, with respect thereto; |
| ● | the provisions, if any, relating to any collateral provided for the debt securities; |
| ● | if other than the entire principal amount of the debt securities when issued, the portion of the principal amount payable upon acceleration of maturity as a result of a default on our obligations; |
| ● | the events of default and covenants relating to the debt securities that are in addition to, modify or delete those described in this prospectus; |
| ● | the nature and terms of any security for any secured debt securities; and |
| ● | any other specific terms of any debt securities. |
The applicable prospectus supplement will present material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of any debt securities and the securities exchange or quotation system on which any debt securities are to be listed or quoted.
Senior Debt Securities
Payment of the principal of, premium and interest, if any, on senior debt securities will rank on a parity with all of our other secured/unsecured and unsubordinated debt.
10
Senior Subordinated Debt Securities
Payment of the principal of, premium and interest, if any, on senior subordinated debt securities will be junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our unsubordinated debt, including senior debt securities and any credit facility. We will state in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any senior subordinated debt securities the subordination terms of the securities as well as the aggregate amount of outstanding debt, as of the most recent practicable date, that by its terms would be senior to the senior subordinated debt securities. We will also state in such prospectus supplement limitations, if any, on issuance of additional senior debt.
Subordinated Debt Securities
Payment of the principal of, premium and interest, if any, on subordinated debt securities will be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our senior debt, including our senior debt securities and senior subordinated debt securities. We will state in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any subordinated debt securities the subordination terms of the securities as well as the aggregate amount of outstanding indebtedness, as of the most recent practicable date, that by its terms would be senior to the subordinated debt securities. We will also state in such prospectus supplement limitations, if any, on issuance of additional senior indebtedness.
Conversion or Exchange Rights
Debt securities may be convertible into or exchangeable for other securities being registered in this registration statement, including, for example, shares of our equity securities. The terms and conditions of conversion or exchange will be stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms will include, among others, the following:
| ● | the conversion or exchange price; |
| ● | the conversion or exchange period; |
| ● | provisions regarding the ability of us or the holder to convert or exchange the debt securities; |
| ● | events requiring adjustment to the conversion or exchange price; and |
| ● | provisions affecting conversion or exchange in the event of our redemption of the debt securities. |
Consolidation, Merger or Sale
We cannot consolidate or merge with or into, or transfer or lease all or substantially all of our assets to, any person, and we cannot permit any other person to consolidate with or merge into us, unless (1) we will be the continuing corporation or (2) the successor corporation or person to which our assets are transferred or leased is a corporation organized under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia and it expressly assumes our obligations under the debt securities and the indenture. In addition, we cannot complete such a transaction unless immediately after completing the transaction, no event of default under the indenture, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an event of default under the indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing. When the person to whom our assets are transferred or leased has assumed our obligations under the debt securities and the indenture, we shall be discharged from all our obligations under the debt securities and the indenture except in limited circumstances.
This covenant would not apply to any recapitalization transaction, a change of control of us or a highly leveraged transaction, unless the transaction or change of control were structured to include a merger or consolidation or transfer or lease of all or substantially all of our assets.
11
Events of Default
The term “Event of Default,” when used in the indenture, unless otherwise indicated, means any of the following:
| ● | failure to pay interest for 30 days after the date payment is due and payable; |
| ● | failure to pay principal or premium, if any, on any debt security when due, either at maturity, upon any redemption, by declaration or otherwise; |
| ● | failure to make sinking fund payments when due; |
| ● | failure to perform other covenants for 60 days after notice that performance was required; |
| ● | events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization relating to us; or |
| ● | any other Event of Default provided in the applicable officer’s certificate, resolution of our board of directors or the supplemental indenture under which we issue a series of debt securities. |
An Event of Default for a particular series of debt securities does not necessarily constitute an Event of Default for any other series of debt securities issued under the indenture.
If an Event of Default with respect to any series of senior debt securities occurs and is continuing, then either the trustee for such series or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series, by notice in writing, may declare the principal amount of and interest on all of the debt securities of such series to be due and payable immediately; provided, however, unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, if such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to more than one series of senior debt securities under the indenture, the trustee for such series or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all such series of senior debt securities of equal ranking (or, if any of such senior debt securities are discount securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series), voting as one class, may make such declaration of acceleration as to all series of such equal ranking and not the holders of the debt securities of any one of such series of senior debt securities.
If an Event of Default with respect to any series of subordinated securities occurs and is continuing, then either the trustee for such series or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series, by notice in writing, may declare the principal amount of and interest on all of the debt securities of such series to be due and payable immediately; provided, however, unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, if such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to more than one series of subordinated securities under the indenture, the trustee for such series or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all such series of subordinated securities of equal ranking (or, if any of such subordinated securities are discount securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series), voting as one class, may make such declaration of acceleration as to all series of equal ranking and not the holders of the debt securities of any one of such series of subordinated securities. The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of all affected series of equal ranking may, after satisfying certain conditions, rescind and annul any of the above-described declarations and consequences involving such series.
If an Event of Default relating to events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of us occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all of the debt securities outstanding, and any accrued interest, will automatically become due and payable immediately, without any declaration or other act by the trustee or any holder.
The indenture imposes limitations on suits brought by holders of debt securities against us. Except for actions for payment of overdue principal or interest, no holder of debt securities of any series may institute any action against us under the indenture unless:
| ● | the holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of default and continuance of such default; |
| ● | the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the affected series of equal ranking have requested that the trustee institute the action; |
12
| ● | the requesting holders have offered the trustee reasonable indemnity for expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by bringing the action; |
| ● | the trustee has not instituted the action within 60 days of the request; and |
| ● | the trustee has not received inconsistent direction by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the affected series of equal ranking. |
We will be required to file annually with the trustee a certificate, signed by one of our officers, stating whether or not the officer knows of any default by us in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any condition or covenant of the indenture.
Registered Global Securities and Book Entry System
The debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in book-entry form and may be represented by one or more fully registered global securities or in unregistered form with or without coupons. We will deposit any registered global securities with a depositary or with a nominee for a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of such depositary or nominee. In such case, we will issue one or more registered global securities denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all of the debt securities of the series to be issued and represented by such registered global security or securities. This means that we will not issue certificates to each holder.
Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for debt securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole:
| ● | by the depositary for such registered global security to its nominee; |
| ● | by a nominee of the depositary to the depositary or another nominee of the depositary; or |
| ● | by the depositary or its nominee to a successor of the depositary or a nominee of the successor. |
The prospectus supplement relating to a series of debt securities will describe the specific terms of the depositary arrangement involving any portion of the series represented by a registered global security. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements for registered debt securities:
| ● | ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons that have accounts with the depositary for such registered global security, these persons being referred to as “participants,” or persons that may hold interests through participants; |
| ● | upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary for the registered global security will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants’ accounts with the respective principal amounts of the debt securities represented by the registered global security beneficially owned by the participants; |
| ● | any dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the debt securities represented by a registered global security will designate the accounts to be credited; and |
| ● | ownership of beneficial interest in such registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership interest will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary for such registered global security for interests of participants, and on the records of participants for interests of persons holding through participants. |
The laws of some states may require that specified purchasers of securities take physical delivery of the securities in definitive form. These laws may limit the ability of those persons to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.
13
So long as the depositary for a registered global security, or its nominee, is the registered owner of such registered global security, the depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the debt securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the indenture. Except as stated below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security:
| ● | will not be entitled to have the debt securities represented by a registered global security registered in their names; |
| ● | will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the debt securities in the definitive form; and |
| ● | will not be considered the owners or holders of the debt securities under the relevant indenture. |
Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for the registered global security and, if the person is not a participant, on the procedures of a participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the indenture.
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 indenture, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take the action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through the participants to give or take the action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.
We will make payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on debt securities represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owners of the registered global security. None of us, the trustee or any other agent of ours or the trustee will be responsible or liable for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.
We expect that the depositary for any debt securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest, if any, in respect of the registered global security, will immediately credit participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that standing customer instructions and customary practices will govern payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the registered global security held through the participants, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” We also expect that any of these payments will be the responsibility of the participants.
If the depositary for any debt securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or stops being a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, we will appoint an eligible successor depositary. If we fail to appoint an eligible successor depositary within 90 days, we will issue the debt securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security. In addition, we may at any time and in our sole discretion decide not to have any of the debt securities of a series represented by one or more registered global securities. In that event, we will issue debt securities of the series in a definitive form in exchange for all of the registered global securities representing the debt securities. The trustee will register any debt securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered global security in the name or names as the depositary, based upon instructions from its participants, who shall instruct the trustee.
We may also issue bearer debt securities of a series in the form of one or more global securities, referred to as “bearer global securities.” The prospectus supplement relating to a series of debt securities represented by a bearer global security will describe the applicable terms and procedures. These will include the specific terms of the depositary arrangement and any specific procedures for the issuance of debt securities in definitive form in exchange for a bearer global security, in proportion to the series represented by a bearer global security.
14
Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance
We can discharge or decrease our obligations under the indenture as stated below.
We may discharge obligations to holders of any series of debt securities that have not already been delivered to the trustee for cancellation and that have either become due and payable or are by their terms to become due and payable, or are scheduled for redemption, within sixty (60) days. We may effect a discharge by irrevocably depositing with the trustee cash or U.S. government obligations, as trust funds, in an amount certified to be enough to pay when due, whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, the principal of, premium and interest, if any, on the debt securities and any mandatory sinking fund payments.
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may also discharge any and all of our obligations to holders of any series of debt securities at any time, which we refer to as defeasance. We may also be released from the obligations imposed by any covenants of any outstanding series of debt securities and provisions of the indenture, and we may omit to comply with those covenants without creating an event of default under the trust declaration, which we refer to as covenant defeasance. We may effect defeasance and covenant defeasance only if, among other things:
| ● | we irrevocably deposit with the trustee cash or U.S. government obligations, as trust funds, in an amount certified to be enough to pay at maturity, or upon redemption, the principal, premium and interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities of the series; |
| ● | we deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized law firm to the effect that the holders of the series of debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance or covenant defeasance and that defeasance or covenant defeasance will not otherwise alter the holders’ U.S. federal income tax treatment of principal, premium and interest, if any, payments on the series of debt securities; and |
| ● | in the case of subordinated debt securities, no event or condition shall exist that, based on the subordination provisions applicable to the series, would prevent us from making payments of principal of, premium and interest, if any, on any of the applicable subordinated debt securities at the date of the irrevocable deposit referred to above or at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the deposit date. |
In the case of a defeasance by us, the opinion we deliver must be based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service issued, or a change in U.S. federal income tax law occurring, after the date of the indenture, since such a result would not occur under the U.S. federal income tax laws in effect on such date.
Although we may discharge or decrease our obligations under the indenture as described in the two preceding paragraphs, we may not avoid, among other things, our duty to register the transfer or exchange of any series of debt securities, to replace any temporary, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen series of debt securities or to maintain an office or agency in respect of any series of debt securities.
Modification of the Indenture
The indenture provides that we and the trustee may enter into supplemental indentures without the consent of the holders of debt securities to:
| ● | secure any debt securities and provide the terms and conditions for the release or substitution of the security; |
| ● | evidence the assumption by a successor corporation of our obligations; |
| ● | add covenants for the protection of the holders of debt securities; |
| ● | add any additional events of default; |
| ● | cure any ambiguity or correct any inconsistency or defect in the indenture; |
15
| ● | add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of the indenture in a manner that will become effective only when there is no outstanding debt security which is entitled to the benefit of the provision as to which the modification would apply; |
| ● | establish the forms or terms of debt securities of any series; |
| ● | eliminate any conflict between the terms of the indenture and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939; |
| ● | evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee and add to or change any of the provisions of the indenture as is necessary for the administration of the trusts by more than one trustee; and |
| ● | make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the indenture that will not be inconsistent with any provision of the indenture as long as the new provisions do not adversely affect the interests of the holders of any outstanding debt securities of any series created prior to the modification. |
The indenture also provides that we and the trustee may, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of debt securities of all series of senior debt securities or of Subordinated Securities of equal ranking, as the case may be, then outstanding and affected, voting as one class, add any provisions to, or change in any manner, eliminate or modify in any way the provisions of, the indenture or modify in any manner the rights of the holders of the debt securities. We and the trustee may not, however, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected thereby:
| ● | extend the final maturity of any debt security; |
| ● | reduce the principal amount or premium, if any; |
| ● | reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest; |
| ● | reduce any amount payable on redemption or impair or affect any right of redemption at the option of the holder of the debt security; |
| ● | change the currency in which the principal, premium or interest, if any, is payable; |
| ● | reduce the amount of the principal of any debt security issued with an original issue discount that is payable upon acceleration or provable in bankruptcy; |
| ● | alter provisions of the relevant indenture relating to the debt securities not denominated in U.S. dollars; |
| ● | impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on any debt security when due; |
| ● | if applicable, adversely affect the right of a holder to convert or exchange a debt security; or |
| ● | reduce the percentage of holders of debt securities of any series whose consent is required for any modification of the indenture. |
The indenture provides that the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of any and all affected series of equal ranking, by notice to the relevant trustee, may on behalf of the holders of the debt securities of any and all such series of equal ranking waive any default and its consequences under the indenture except:
| ● | a continuing default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or principal of, any such debt security held by a non-consenting holder; or |
| ● | a default in respect of a covenant or provision of the indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of each series affected. |
16
Concerning the Trustee
The indenture provides that there may be more than one trustee under the indenture, each for one or more series of debt securities. If there are different trustees for different series of debt securities, each trustee will be a trustee of a trust under the indenture separate and apart from the trust administered by any other trustee under that indenture.
Except as otherwise indicated in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement, any action permitted to be taken by a trustee may be taken by such trustee only on the one or more series of debt securities for which it is the trustee under the indenture. Any trustee under the indenture may resign or be removed from one or more series of debt securities. All payments of principal of, premium and interest, if any, on, and all registration, transfer, exchange, authentication and delivery of, the debt securities of a series will be effected by the trustee for that series at an office designated by the trustee.
If the trustee becomes a creditor of ours, the indenture places limitations on the right of the trustee to obtain payment of claims or to realize on property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee may engage in other transactions. If it acquires any conflicting interest relating to any duties concerning the debt securities, however, it must eliminate the conflict or resign as trustee.
The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of any and all affected series of debt securities of equal ranking then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee concerning the applicable series of debt securities, provided that the direction:
| ● | would not conflict with any rule of law or with the relevant indenture; |
| ● | would not be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another holder of the debt securities; and |
| ● | would not involve any trustee in personal liability. |
The indenture provides that in case an Event of Default shall occur, not be cured and be known to any trustee, the trustee must use the same degree of care as a prudent person would use in the conduct of his or her own affairs in the exercise of the trustee’s power. The trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any of the holders of the debt securities, unless they shall have offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the trustee.
No Individual Liability of Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers or Directors
No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, or of any debt security thereunder, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations of the Company, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators, stockholders, officers or directors, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, or any of them.
Governing Law
The indenture and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
17
DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
We may issue warrants for the purchase of our Class B Ordinary Shares, preferred shares, and/or debt securities in one or more series. We may issue warrants independently or together with our Class B Ordinary Shares, preferred shares and/or debt securities, and the warrants may be attached to or traded separate and apart from these securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a warrant agreement as set forth in the prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement or term sheet will describe the terms of the warrants offered thereby, any warrant agreement relating to such warrants and the warrant certificates, including but not limited to the following:

| ● | the offering price or prices of the warrants, if any; |
| ● | the minimum or maximum amount of the warrants which may be exercised at any one time; |
| ● | the currency or currency units in which the offering price, if any, and the exercise price are payable; |
| ● | the number of securities, if any, with which such warrants are being offered and the number of such warrants being offered with each security; |
| ● | the date, if any, on and after which such warrants and the related securities, if any, will be transferable separately; |

Prospective purchasers of warrants should be aware that material U.S. federal income tax, accounting and other considerations may be applicable to instruments such as warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS
We may issue rights to purchase our Class B Ordinary Shares, preferred shares, debt securities or other securities. Rights may be issued independently or together with any other offered security and may or may not be transferable by the person purchasing or receiving the rights. In connection with any rights offering, we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed for after such rights offering. Each series of rights will be issued under a separate rights agent agreement to be entered into between us and one or more banks, trust companies, or other financial institutions, as rights agent, that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. The rights agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the rights and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights.
The prospectus supplement relating to any rights that we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering, including, among other matters:
| ● | the date of determining the security holders entitled to the rights distribution; |
| ● | the aggregate number of rights issued and the aggregate amount of securities purchasable upon exercise of the rights; |
| ● | the exercise price for the rights; |
| ● | the conditions to completion of the rights offering; |
| ● | the date on which the right to exercise the rights will commence and the date on which the right will expire; |
| ● | the extent to which such subscription rights are transferable; |
| ● | if applicable, a discussion of the material Irish or United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the issuance or exercise of such subscription rights; |
| ● | any other terms of the rights, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of the rights; |
| ● | the extent to which the rights include an over-subscription privilege with respect to unsubscribed securities; and |
| ● | the material terms of any standby underwriting agreement or other arrangement entered into by us in connection with the rights offering. |
Each right would entitle the holder of the rights to purchase for cash the principal amount of securities at the exercise price set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Rights may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date for the rights provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, all unexercised rights will become void.
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 our security holders, to or through agents, underwriters, or dealers, or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby arrangements, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
19
DESCRIPTION OF UNITS
We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.
The applicable prospectus supplement may describe:
| ● | the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately; |
| ● | any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and |
| ● | any additional terms of the governing unit agreement. |
The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any units. The preceding description and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the unit agreement and, if applicable, collateral arrangements and depositary arrangements relating to such units.
TAXATION
Our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F provides a discussion of certain tax considerations that may be relevant to prospective investors in our securities. The applicable prospectus supplement may also contain information about certain material tax considerations relating to the securities covered by such prospectus supplement. You should consult your own tax advisors prior to acquiring any of our securities.
20
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We may sell the securities offered by this prospectus in any one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:
| ● | directly to investors, including through privately negotiated transactions, a specific bidding, auction or other process; |
| ● | to investors through agents; |
| ● | directly to agents; |
| ● | to or through underwriters or dealers; |
| ● | in “at the market” offerings, within the meaning of the 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; |
| ● | through a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| ● | through any other method permitted by applicable law and described in the applicable prospectus supplement. |
The accompanying prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering and the method of distribution and will identify any firms acting as underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, including:
| ● | the names and addresses of any underwriters, dealers or agents; |
| ● | the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds to us from the sale, if any; |
| ● | any over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us; |
| ● | any underwriting discounts and other items constituting compensation to underwriters, dealers or agents; |
| ● | any public offering price, any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and |
| ● | any securities exchange or market on which the securities offered in the prospectus supplement may be listed. |
If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the offered securities for their own account and may resell them from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The offered securities may be offered either to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or by one or more underwriters without a syndicate. Unless otherwise set forth in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any series of securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities if any are purchased. Only those underwriters identified in such prospectus supplement are deemed to be underwriters in connection with the securities offered in the prospectus supplement. Any underwritten offering may be on a best efforts or a firm commitment basis.
21
In connection with the sale of our securities, underwriters or agents may receive compensation (in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions) from us, or from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of our securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts allowed or commissions paid, and any profit on the resale of the securities they realize may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Any person who may be deemed to be an underwriter will be identified, and the compensation received from us will be described, in the prospectus supplement. Maximum compensation to any underwriters, dealers or agents will not exceed any applicable Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) limitations.
Underwriters and agents may be entitled to indemnification by us against some civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contributions with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to make relating to these liabilities. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.
Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, each series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than our Class B Ordinary Shares, which are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Any Class B Ordinary Shares sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement will be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to official notice of issuance. We may elect to list any preferred shares, warrants, debt securities, rights, or units on an exchange, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters 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. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or the trading market for, any offered securities.
The aggregate proceeds to us from the sale of our securities will be the purchase price of our securities less discounts or commissions, if any. We reserve the right to accept and, together with our agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of our securities to be made directly or through agents.
To facilitate the offering of the securities offered by us, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more shares than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of our securities by bidding for or purchasing shares in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if shares sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of our securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

LEGAL MATTERS
Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of any securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and certain other legal matters as to Irish law will be passed upon for us by Philip Lee LLP, Dublin, Ireland. Certain other legal matters relating to U.S. federal law and the laws of the State of New York will be passed upon for us by Bevilacqua PLLC.
If legal matters in connection with offerings made pursuant to this prospectus are passed upon by counsel to underwriters, dealers or agents, such counsel will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any such offering.
EXPERTS
Our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the years then ended incorporated in this prospectus by reference to the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022 have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of TAAD LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting. The offices of TAAD LLP are located at 20955 Pathfinder Rd, Suite 370, Diamond Bar, CA 91765.
INDEMNIFICATION
Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling the company pursuant to provisions of our constitution, 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 by such director, officer or controlling person of us 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 offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
23
ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We were incorporated under the laws of Ireland. Some of our directors and officers reside outside of the United States. Service of process upon such persons may be difficult or impossible to effect within the United States. Furthermore, because most of our assets, and some of the assets of our directors and officers, are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States, including a judgment based upon the civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws, against us or any of such persons may not be collectible within the United States. It also may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to assert United States securities laws claims in original actions instituted in Ireland.
In addition, it may not be possible to enforce court judgments obtained in the United States against us in Ireland based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal or state securities laws. The United States currently does not have a treaty with Ireland providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters.
The following requirements must be met before a judgment of a U.S. court will be deemed to be enforceable in Ireland:
| ● | the judgment must be for a definite sum; | |
| ● | the judgment must be final and conclusive; and |
| ● | the judgment must be provided by a court of competent jurisdiction. |
An Irish court will also exercise its right to refuse enforcement if the U.S. judgment was obtained by fraud, if the judgment violates Irish public policy, if the judgment is in breach of natural or constitutional justice or if it is irreconcilable with an earlier foreign judgment. There is some uncertainty as to whether the courts of Ireland would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers based on the civil liabilities provisions of the U.S. federal or state securities laws or hear actions against us or those persons based on those laws. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any U.S. federal or state court based on civil liability, whether or not based solely on U.S. federal or state securities laws, would not automatically be enforceable in Ireland.
Foreign judgments enforced by Irish courts generally will be payable in euros. An Irish court hearing an action to recover an amount in a non-Irish currency will render judgment for the equivalent amount in Irish currency.

INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION BY REFERENCE
The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” the information we file with it into this prospectus. This means that we can disclose important information about us and our financial condition to you by referring you to another document filed separately with the SEC instead of having to repeat the information in this prospectus. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this prospectus and later information that we file with the SEC will automatically update and supersede this information. We incorporate by reference into this prospectus the information contained in the documents listed below and any future filings made by us with the SEC under Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, except for information “furnished” to the SEC which is not deemed filed and not incorporated by reference into this prospectus (unless otherwise indicated below), until the termination of the offering of securities described in the applicable prospectus supplement:

We also incorporate by reference any future annual reports on Form 20-F we file with the SEC under the Exchange Act after the date of this prospectus and prior to the termination of the offering of securities by means of this prospectus, and any future reports of foreign private issuer on Form 6-K we furnish with the SEC during such period that are identified in such reports as being incorporated by reference in this prospectus.
Any reports filed by us with the SEC after the date of this prospectus and before the date that the offering of securities by means of this prospectus is terminated will automatically update and, where applicable, supersede any information contained in this prospectus or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. This means that you must look at all of the SEC filings that we incorporate by reference to determine if any of the statements in this prospectus or in any documents incorporated by reference have been modified or superseded. Unless expressly incorporated by reference, nothing in this prospectus shall be deemed to incorporate by reference information furnished to, but not filed with, the SEC.
