The selling stockholder and any brokers executing selling orders on its behalf may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, in which event commissions received by such brokers may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act.

 

Our ordinary shares are quoted on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “DELT”. The last reported sale price of our ordinary shares on The NASDAQ Capital Market on February 6, 2017, was $1.29 per share.

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and we intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “should,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included and incorporated by reference in this prospectus that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of ordinary shares offered by the selling stockholder.

 

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

This prospectus relates to the offering by the selling stockholder of up to 785,000 ordinary shares. These ordinary shares have been or will be granted to the selling stockholder under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

 

The following table sets forth, based on information provided to us by the selling stockholder or known to us, the name of the selling stockholder, the nature of any position, office or other material relationship, if any, which the selling stockholder has had, within the past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates, and the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by the selling stockholder before this offering. The number of ordinary shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any ordinary shares as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any ordinary shares which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through conversion of any security or pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or revocation of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. The selling stockholder is not a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.

 

We have assumed all ordinary shares reflected on the table will be sold from time to time in the offering covered by this prospectus. Because the selling stockholder may offer all or any portions of the ordinary shares listed in the table below, no estimate can be given as to the amount of those ordinary shares covered by this prospectus that will be held by the selling stockholder upon the termination of the offering.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Timing of Sales

 

The selling stockholder may offer and sell the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The selling stockholder will act independently of our company in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.

 

To our knowledge, the selling stockholder has no agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to resell the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus.

 

Offering Price

 

The sales price offered by the selling stockholder to the public may be:

 

1. the market price prevailing at the time of sale;

 

2. a price related to such prevailing market price; or

 

3. such other price as the selling stockholder determine from time to time.

 

Manner of Sale

 

The ordinary shares may be sold by means of one or more of the following methods:

 

1. a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the ordinary shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

2. purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;

 

3. ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

 

4. through options, swaps or derivatives;

 

5. in transactions to cover short sales;

 

6. privately negotiated transactions; or

 

7. in a combination of any of the above methods.

 

The selling stockholder may sell its ordinary shares directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell its ordinary shares. Brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholder or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of ordinary shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved.

 

Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of shares of ordinary shares at a stipulated price per common share, and, to the extent the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares of ordinary shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholder.

 

Broker-dealers who acquire ordinary shares as principal may thereafter resell the ordinary shares from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, on The NASDAQ Capital Market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with resales of the ordinary shares, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of shares commissions as described above.

 

  8  

 

 

If the selling stockholder enters into arrangements with brokers or dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker-dealers acting as underwriters.

 

The selling stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling stockholder in the sale of the ordinary shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the ordinary shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

 

Sales Pursuant to Rule 144

 

Any ordinary shares covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Regulation M

 

The selling stockholder must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the ordinary shares. In particular we will advise the selling stockholder that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of ordinary shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholder and its affiliates. Regulation M under the Exchange Act prohibits, with certain exceptions, participants in a distribution from bidding for, or purchasing for an account in which the participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution.

 

Accordingly, during such times as a selling stockholder may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the ordinary shares, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, the selling stockholder must comply with applicable law and, among other things:

 

1. may not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our ordinary shares;

 

2. may not cover short sales by purchasing ordinary shares while the distribution is taking place; and

 

3. may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.

 

In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

State Securities Laws

 

Under the securities laws of some states, the ordinary shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the ordinary shares may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

 

Expenses of Registration

 

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the ordinary shares. The selling stockholder, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the ordinary shares.

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

The validity of the ordinary shares has been passed upon by Harneys, British Virgin Islands.

Disclosure Of Commission Position On Indemnification

For Securities Act Liabilities

 

British Virgin Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the British Virgin Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our Articles of Association provides for indemnification of our officers and directors for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own fraud or dishonesty.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is theretofore unenforceable.

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

 

  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act.

 

  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered  would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement.

  

  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that (A) paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S–8 (§239.16b of Regulation S-K), and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and (B) paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the Registration Statement; provided further, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is for an offering of asset-backed securities on Form S-1 or Form S-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment is provided pursuant to Item 1100(c) of Regulation AB.

 

  12  

 

 

 

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

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

 

(A) Each prospectus filed by a Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i),  (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

(b) The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, 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, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
