PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from this Offering.
The Shares offered hereby may be sold by the Selling Stockholders from
time to time, subject to certain volume and timing restrictions more fully
described below, on the NASDAQ National Market System on terms to be
determined by the Selling Stockholders at the time of such sales. The
Selling Stockholders may also make private sales directly or through a
broker or brokers. Alternatively, the Selling Stockholders may from time
to time offer Shares to or through underwriters, dealers or agents, who
may receive consideration in the form of discounts and commissions; such
compensation, which may be in excess of ordinary brokerage commissions,
may be paid by the Selling Stockholders and/or the purchasers of the
Shares offered hereby for whom such underwriters, dealers or agents may
act. The Selling Stockholders and any dealers or agents that participate
in the distribution of the Shares offered hereby may be deemed to be
"underwriters" as defined in the Securities Act, and any profit on the
sale of such Shares offered hereby by them and any discounts, commissions
or concessions received by any such dealers or agents might be deemed to
be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The
aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from sales of the Shares
offered by the Selling Stockholders hereby will be the purchase price of
such Common Stock less any broker's commissions.
To the extent required, the specific shares of Common Stock to be
sold, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names
of any such agent, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions
or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an
accompanying Prospectus Supplement.
The Shares offered hereby may be sold from time to time, subject to
certain volume and timing restrictions, in one or more transactions at a
fixed offering price, which may be changed, or at varying prices
determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. In order to
comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the
Shares offered hereby will be sold in such jurisdictions only through
registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states
Shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for
sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or
qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any
person engaged in the distribution of the Common Stock offered hereby may
not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the
Common Stock for a period of two business days prior to the commencement
of such distribution. Without limiting the foregoing, the Selling
Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation,
Rules 10b-2, 10b-6 and 10b-7, which may limit the timing of purchases and
sales of the Company's Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.
The Company will pay substantially all the expenses incurred by the
Selling Stockholders and the Company incident to the Offering and sale of
the Shares to the public, but excluding any underwriting discounts,
commissions or transfer taxes.
The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company, the Company has been advised that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
No person has been
authorized in connection with the
offering made hereby to give any
information or to make any
representation not contained in
this Prospectus and, if given or
made, such information or
representation must not be relied
upon as having been authorized by 281,497 Shares
the Company, the Selling
Stockholders or any other person.
This Prospectus does not
constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy
any of the securities offered
hereby to any person or by anyone
in any jurisdiction in which it is SofTech, Inc.
unlawful to make such offer or
solicitation. Neither the
delivery of this Prospectus nor
any sale made hereunder shall,
under any circumstances, create Common Stock
any implication that the
information contained herein is
correct as of any date subsequent
to the date hereof. ______________
