PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights, and is qualified in its entirety by, the more detailed information included elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read and carefully consider the entire prospectus, especially as described in “Risk Factors,” before deciding to invest in common stock.
Overview
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on exploring the role that cytokine-based therapy can have on the immune system in treating patients with cancer, both as a single agent and in combination with other anti-cancer therapies. We are seeking to develop IRX-2, a novel cytokine-based therapy, to treat patients with cancer. IRX-2 active constituents, namely Interleukin-2 and other key cytokines, are postulated to signal, enhance and restore immune function suppressed by the tumor, thus enabling the immune system to attack cancer cells, unlike existing cancer therapies, which rely on targeting the cancer directly. We also are exploring opportunities to advance oncology, blood disorder, and monogenic disease therapies using leading edge gene editing/cell therapygene-editing cell-therapy technology through a license with Factor Bioscience Limited, or Factor, and through our acquisition of Novellus, Inc. and Novellus Therapeutics Limited, or Novellus, Ltd.
Acquisition of Novellus
On July 16, 2021, we and our newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary Brooklyn Acquisition Sub, Inc. entered into an agreement and plan of acquisition, or the Acquisition Agreement, with (a) Novellus LLC, (b) Novellus, Inc., the sole equity holder of Novellus, Ltd. and, prior to the closing under the Acquisition Agreement, a wholly owned subsidiary of Novellus, LLC, and (c) a seller representative. Novellus, Ltd. is a pre-clinical stage biotechnology company organized under the laws of Ireland that is developing engineered cellular medicines using its licensed, patented non-immunogenic mRNA, high-specificity gene editing, mutation-free and footprint-free cell reprogramming and serum-insensitive mRNA lipid delivery technologies.
The closing of the transaction contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement, or the Acquisition, was held contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the Acquisition Agreement. At the closing:
We acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Novellus, Inc. as the result of the merger of Brooklyn Acquisition Sub, Inc. with and into Novellus, Inc., following which Novellus, Inc., as the surviving corporation, became our operatingwholly owned subsidiary and Novellus Ltd. became our indirectly owned subsidiary.
We acquired 25.0% of the total outstanding equity interests of NoveCite, Inc., a corporation focused on developing an MSC product for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, including from COVID-19.
We delivered consideration for the Acquisition totaling approximately $124.0 million, which consisted of (a) $22.8 million in cash and (b) 7,022,230 shares of common stock, which under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement were valued at a total of $102.0 million, based on a price of $14.5253 per share.
The Acquisition Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and certain indemnification provisions. A total of 740,766 of the shares issued as consideration have been placed in escrow for a period of up to 12 months in order to secure indemnification obligations to us under the Acquisition Agreement. The Acquisition Agreement also contains non-competition and non-solicitation provisions pursuant to which Novellus LLC has agreed not to engage in certain competitive activities for a period of five years following the closing, including customary restrictions relating to employees. No employees of Novellus Ltd. or Novellus, Inc. prior to the Acquisition continued their employment, or were otherwise engaged by us, following the Acquisition.
In connection with the Acquisition, the co-founders of Novellus, Ltd. entered into lock-up agreements with respect to 3,377,690 of the shares received in the Acquisition, and our Chair of the Board of Directors and its Chief Executive Officer and President entered into identical lock-up agreements with respect to their current holdings of our stock. Each lock-up agreement extends for a period of three years, provided that up to 75% of the shares of common stock subject to the lock-up agreement may be released from the lock-up restrictions earlier if the price of common stock on our principal stock exchange, now The Nasdaq Global Market, exceeds specified thresholds. The lock-up agreements include customary exceptions for transfers during the applicable lock-up period.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The completion of the acquisition of Novellus, Ltd. relieves our wholly owned subsidiary Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics LLC, or Brooklyn LLC, from potential obligations to pay Novellus, Ltd. certain upfront fees, clinical development milestone fees and post-registration royalties under the License Agreement. The agreement with Factor under the exclusive license agreement dated as of April 26, 2021, or the License Agreement, that Brooklyn LLC entered into with Novellus Therapeutics Limited and Factor, Bioscience Limited as of April 26, 2021,which grants Brooklyn LLC exclusive rights to exclusively license intellectual property anddevelop certain next-generation mRNA cell reprogramming and gene editing technology for use in the development of certain cell-based therapies to be evaluated and developed for treating human diseases, including certain types of cancer, sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia.
The Lincoln Park Transactiontherapy products, remains unchanged.
On April 26,July 16, 2021, in connection with the Acquisition, we entered into a purchaseregistration rights agreement or the Prior Purchase Agreement, with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, or the selling stockholder, which provided for, among other things, the issuance and sale by us to the selling stockholder, from time to time at our sole discretion, of up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 shares of common stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions therein. The Prior Purchase Agreement terminated automatically by its terms on May 18, 2021, upon the sale of all of the $20,000,000 of shares contemplated thereby.
On May 26, 2021, we entered into a new Purchase Agreement and a new Registration Rights Agreement with the selling stockholder. The Purchase Agreement provides that we may elect, subjectstockholders pursuant to satisfaction of specified conditions, to require the selling stockholder to purchase from time to time shares of common stock for up to an aggregate of $40,000,000 on or before    , 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement,which we have filed the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, a total of 2,869,8816,281,454 shares of common stock that have been or may be, issued to the selling stockholderstockholders under the PurchaseAcquisition Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, on May 26, 2021 we issued to the selling stockholder 50,000 shares of common stock, which we refer to as the Commitment Shares, as consideration for the selling stockholder’s commitment to purchase shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement. The Commitment Shares are included in the 2,869,881 shares of common stock being registered for resale by the selling stockholder under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, upon the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including that the registration statement that includes this prospectus be declared effective by the Securities Exchange Commission, or the SEC, we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the selling stockholder, and upon our request the selling stockholder will be obligated to purchase from us, shares of common stock for a total aggregate purchase price of up to $40,000,000. Any such sales of common stock by us will be subject to specified conditions and may occur from time to time, at our election, on or before    , 2024, subject to conditions specified in the Purchase Agreement. The selling stockholder has no right to require us to sell any shares of common stock to it, but it is obligated to make purchases as we elect, subject to conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. We are obligated to pay to Maxim Group LLC, our financial adviser, a fee of 3.0% of the purchase price we receive from the selling stockholder in connection with each purchase of shares of common stock, including the value of the Commitment Shares, under the Purchase Agreement.
Under the Purchase Agreement, we may elect from time to time, subject to specified conditions, to require the selling stockholder to purchase on any single business day on which the closing price of common stock is equal to or greater than $1.00, which we refer to as a Regular Purchase, (a) up to 60,000 shares of common stock, (b) if the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American is at least $5.50 per share, up to 80,000 shares of common stock or (c) if the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American is at least $7.00 per share, up to 120,000 shares of common stock. In no case, however, will the selling stockholder’s commitment with respect to any single Regular Purchase exceed $2,000,000. The foregoing share amounts and per share prices will be adjusted for any

TABLE OF CONTENTS

reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement with respect to common stock. The purchase price per share for each such Regular Purchase will be based on prevailing market prices of the common stock immediately preceding the time of sale, as determined under the Purchase Agreement.
In addition to Regular Purchases, we may require the selling stockholder to make purchases of increased numbers of shares of common stock as accelerated purchases or additional accelerated purchases on terms, and subject to conditions, set forth in the Purchase Agreement and described under “The Lincoln Park Transaction—Purchase of Shares under the Purchase Agreement.”
A total of 2,869,881 shares of common stock that have been, or may be, issued to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement are being offered by this prospectus. Depending on the market prices of common stock at the various times we may elect to sell shares to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, we may be required, under the Registration Rights Agreement, to register for resale under the Securities Act additional shares of common stock that we may sell to the selling stockholder in order for us to receive the total commitment of $40,000,000 available under the Purchase Agreement. Under applicable rules of the NYSE American, we would be required to obtain stockholder approval in order to sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more than 7,169,313 shares of common stock (including the Commitment Shares), which we refer to as the Exchange Cap, which represents 19.99% of the 41,505,998 shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Prior Purchase Agreement, less the 1,127,736 shares of common stock we issued to the selling stockholder under the Prior Purchase Agreement for a total aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, any shares of common stock that we issue and sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement at a per share purchase price that equals or exceeds the greater of book or market value of the common stock, as calculated in accordance with the applicable rules of the NYSE American, will not be subject to the Exchange Cap share issuance limitation described above under applicable rules of the NYSE American.
The Purchase Agreement prohibits us from requiring the selling stockholder to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock then beneficially owned by the selling stockholder and its affiliates, would result in the selling stockholder having beneficial ownership, at any time, of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.
We may elect to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, without any cost or penalty. The Purchase Agreement does not include any of the following: limitations on our use of amounts we receive as the purchase price for shares of common stock sold to the selling stockholder; financial or business covenants; restrictions on future financings (other than restrictions on our ability to enter into an “equity line” or similar transaction with a third party investor in which we may sell common stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into common stock at a future determined price based on the market price of common stock); rights of first refusal; participation rights; penalties; or liquidated damages.
The amount we receive from sales of common stock to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will depend on the number of shares we sell and the prices at which we sell those shares to the selling stockholder.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. These risks are discussed in “Risk Factors” and include the following:
We are substantially dependent on the success of our internal development programs, and our product pipeline candidates may not successfully complete clinical trials, receive regulatory approval or be successfully commercialized.
Our product candidates and those of any collaborators will need to undergo preclinical and clinical trials that are time-consuming and expensive, the outcomes of which are unpredictable, and for which there is a high risk of failure. If preclinical or clinical trials of our or their product candidates fail to satisfactorily demonstrate safety and efficacy to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency and any other comparable regulatory authority, additional costs may be incurred or delays experienced in completing, the development of these product candidates, or their development may be abandoned.
We may find it difficult to enroll patients in our clinical trials, which could delay or prevent us from proceeding with clinical trials of our product candidates.
3

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We may expend our limited resources to pursue a particular product candidate or indication and fail to capitalize on product candidates or indications that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success.
We may not generate the expected benefits of our acquisition of Novellus, and the acquisition could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and increase our expenses.
If we fail to maintain orphan drug exclusivity for IRX-2 or we fail to obtain or maintain such exclusivity for any future drug candidate we may license, our competitors may sell products to treat the same conditions, and our revenues would be significantly adversely affected.
We own only a 25% interest in NoveCite, Inc., and that interest may be diluted unless we invest additional funds.
Our current or future product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties when used alone or in combination with other approved products or investigational new drugs that could halt their clinical development, prevent their marketing approval, limit their commercial potential or result in significant negative consequences.
We face business disruption and related risks resulting from the recent pandemic of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which could have a material adverse effect on our business plan.
We have a limited operating history and have never generated any product revenue.
Our business is heavily dependent on the successful development, regulatory approval and commercialization of IRX-2, one of our product candidate, IRX-2.candidates.
Clinical studies required for our product candidates are expensive and time-consuming, and their outcome is uncertain.
We do not have, and may never obtain, the regulatory approvals we need to market our product candidates.
2

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Gene editing product candidates we may develop based on our exclusive license agreement with Novellus Therapeutics Limited and Factor Bioscience Limited are based on new technology, which makes it difficult to predict the time and cost of development and of subsequently obtaining regulatory approval, if we are able to obtain such approval.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the European Medicines Agency have demonstrated caution in their regulation of gene therapy treatments, and ethical and legal concerns about gene therapy and genetic testing may result in additional regulations or restrictions on the development and commercialization of such products, which may be difficult to predict.
We may be unable to successfully scale up manufacturing of IRX-2 in sufficient quality and quantity, which may delay or prevent us from commercializing the product even if approved for marketing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other regulatory agencies.
We will require substantial additional capital to fund our operations, and if we fail to obtain necessary financing, we may not be able to complete the development and commercialization of any of our product candidates.
Corporate Information
We incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1984. We changed our name from our initial name Alroy Industries, Inc. to NTN Communications, Inc. in 1985, and then to NTN Buzztime, Inc. in 2005 and to Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics, Inc. on March 25, 2021. Our principal executive office is located at 140 58th Street, Suite 2100, Brooklyn, New York 11220, and our telephone number is (212) 582-1199. Our website address is www.brooklynitx.com. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not a part of this prospectus. We have included our website address in this prospectus solely as an inactive textual reference.
Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
We are a “smaller reporting company” because the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during our most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (a) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (b) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. We may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. For so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure and other requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not smaller reporting companies.

Before you decide to invest inacquiring any such shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described below and the risks described inrisk factors incorporated on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by us, and all other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission,information contained or the SEC, from time to time, which are incorporated by reference ininto this prospectus, in their entirety, together withas updated by our filings under the other information in this prospectus and the information and documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus.Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If any of the risks described in our filings incorporated by reference in this prospectus occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects could be harmed. In these circumstances, the market price of common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Relating to the Equity Line
The sale or issuance of shares of common stock to the selling stockholder will cause dilution, and the sale of shares of common stock acquired by the selling stockholder, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of common stock to fall.
On May 26, 2021, we entered into a new Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, or the selling stockholder, pursuant to which we may elect, subject to specified conditions, to sell to the selling stockholder shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $40,000,000. As consideration for the selling stockholder’s commitment to purchase shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement, we issued to the selling stockholder on May 26, 2021 a total of 50,000 shares of common stock, or the Commitment Shares.
The 2,869,881 shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus consist of shares that we have sold, or may sell, to the selling stockholder from time to time on or before   , 2024. The purchase price for common stock that we may sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the public trading price of common stock. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of those shares may cause the public trading price of common stock to decrease.
We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any future sales of common stock to the selling stockholder. Sales of shares of common stock, if any, to the selling stockholder will depend upon market conditions and other factors to be determined by us. We ultimately may decide to sell to the selling stockholder all, some or none of the additional shares of common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Our sales of shares of common stock to the selling stockholder could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of common stock to the selling stockholder, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales, or at all. If and when we do sell shares of common stock to the selling stockholder, after the selling stockholder has acquired the shares, it may resell all, some or none of those shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion.
We may not have access to the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement.
Although the Purchase Agreement provides that we may sell up to $40,000,000 of common stock to the selling stockholder, only 2,869,881 of the shares that have been or may be issued to the selling stockholder are being offered under this prospectus, of which an aggregate of 50,000 shares have been issued to the selling stockholder and 2,819,881 shares represent shares that we may elect to issue and sell to the selling stockholder in the future under the Purchase Agreement. As a result, depending on the market prices of common stock, we may not be able to sell a number of shares of common stock sufficient to provide us with the full $40,000,000 commitment amount contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we may be able to issue and sell more shares of common stock to the selling stockholder than can be represented by the 2,869,881 shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. In such case, before we can sell any additional shares to the selling stockholder, we will need to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933 additional shares of common stock, which will require additional time, resources and cost to us. In addition, the issuance and sale of such additional shares of common stock could cause substantial dilution to our stockholders.
In addition, under applicable rules of the NYSE American, we would be required to obtain stockholder approval in order to sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more than 7,169,313 shares of common stock (including the Commitment Shares), which we refer to as the Exchange Cap, which represents 19.99% of the 41,505,998 shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of a prior purchase agreement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

we entered into with the selling stockholder on April 26, 2021, or the Prior Purchase Agreement, less the 1,127,736 shares of common stock we issued to the selling stockholder under the Prior Purchase Agreement for a total aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, any shares of common stock that we issue and sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement at a per share purchase price that equals or exceeds the greater of book or market value of the common stock, as calculated in accordance with the applicable rules of the NYSE American, will not be subject to the Exchange Cap share issuance limitation described above under applicable rules of the NYSE American. In addition, the selling stockholder will not be required to purchase any shares of common stock if such sale would result in the selling stockholder's beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock. Our inability to access a portion or the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement, in the absence of any other financing sources, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
The actual number of shares we will issue under the Purchase Agreement, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.
Subject to certain limitations in the Purchase Agreement, the NYSE American regulations and applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a sales notice to the selling stockholder at any time throughout the term of the Purchase Agreement. The number of shares that are sold will fluctuate based on the market price of the shares of common stock. Because the price per share of each share sold to the selling stockholder will fluctuate based on the market price of common stock, it is not possible at this stage to predict the number of shares that will be ultimately issued under the Purchase Agreement.
Risks Relating to Ownership of Common Stock
The market price of common stock historically has been and likely will continue to be highly volatile, which could result in substantial losses for investors purchasing our shares.
The market price for common stock historically has been highly volatile, and the market for common stock has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations, based both on our operating performance and for reasons that appear to us unrelated to our operating performance. For example, on May 26,November 16, 2021, the closing sale price of the common stock as reported on the NYSE AmericanThe Nasdaq Global Market was $13.68.$7.72. Since March 26, 2021, the interday trading price of common stock has varied between a low of $3.59 on April 1, 2021 and a high of $80.67 on May 3, 2021. During this time, we did not make any announcements regarding our financial condition or results of operations. We may continue to incur rapid and substantial increases or decreases in the price of common stock in the foreseeable future that are do not coincide in timing with the disclosure of news or developments by us.
In addition, the market price of common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to several factors, including:
the level of our financial resources;
announcements of entry into or consummation of a financing;
announcements of new products or technologies, commercial relationships or other events by us or our competitors;
announcements of difficulties or delays in entering into commercial relationships with our partners or customers;
changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance or deviations in our business and the trading price of common stock from the estimates of securities analysts;
fluctuations in stock market prices and trading volumes of similar companies;
price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole;
additional shares of common stock being sold into the market by us or our existing stockholders or the anticipation of such sales;
discussion of us or our stock price by the financial press and in online investor communities;
lawsuits threatened or filed against us;
failure to maintain compliance with any of the NYSE AmericanThe Nasdaq Global Market continued listing standards;

The realization of any of the foregoing could have a dramatic and adverse impact on the market price of common stock.
Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, or the anticipation of such sales, could have a material adverse effect on then-prevailing market prices.
As of May 26,November 8, 2021, there were in addition to the shares of common stock that may be sold under the Purchase Agreement, (a) 3,237,2183,598,048 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock options with exercise prices ranging from $4.86$7.94 to $55.00$21.35 at weighted average exercise price of $8.08,$8.60, (b) 3,368,804221,640 outstanding restricted stock units with a weighted average intrinsic value of $9.31 per share,

(c) 8,484,936 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our Restated 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, (c)(d) 905,627 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our 2021 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan, and (e) 156,112 shares of outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock outstanding which were then convertible into approximately 42,02742,165 shares of common stock, and (d) 202(f) 445,627 shares of common stock reserved for issuance on June 1, 2021 as a dividend on outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred stock.to Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC . Registration statements registering the shares of common stock underlying the outstanding options, restricted stock units, and the shares issuable to Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC are currently effective. Generally, the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A convertible preferred stock, which the holders may do at any time, may be sold under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.1933, or the Securities Act. Accordingly, a significant number of shares of common stock could be sold at any time. Depending on market liquidity at the time common stock is resold by the holders thereof, such resales could cause the trading price of common stock to decline. In addition, our agreement withsales by the selling stockholder andstockholders, including the sale of a substantial number of shares of common stock, or anticipation of such sales, including sales by the selling stockholder, could make it more difficult for us to obtain future financing. To the extent the trading price of common stock at the time any of our outstanding options are exercised exceeds their exercise price or at the time any of the outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred stock are converted exceeds their conversion price, such exercise or conversion will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.
We intendcan provide no assurance that claims will not be made to seek stockholderchallenge the validity of the ratification of the filing and effectiveness of the certificate of amendment to our restated certificate of incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 25, 2021 with respect to the increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock pursuant to Section 204 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
We intend to file a proxy statement pursuant toOn September 3, 2021, our stockholders approved the ratification, which we will request that our stockholders ratify, pursuantrefer to Section 204as the Share Increase Ratification, of the Delaware General Corporation Law or DGCL, the filing and effectiveness of the certificate of amendment to our restated certificate of incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 25, 2021, which effected an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock by 85,000,000, from 15,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares, and which we refer to as the Share Increase Amendment. This ratification will be retroactive to the effectiveness of the filing of the Share Increase Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 25, 2021.
The board of directors, in consultation with counsel, has determined that the description of the authority of brokers or nominees to vote on the Share Increase Amendment proposal without instruction in the proxy statement, prospectus and consent solicitation statement relating to the special meeting of stockholders held on March 15, 2021, which we refer to as the Special Meeting, which wasWe subsequently filed with the SEC on February 8, 2021, may create some uncertainty as to the effect of the vote obtained on the Share Increase Amendment proposal at the Special Meeting. As a result, the board has determined that it is in the best interests of our company and our stockholders to ratify the filing and effectiveness of the Share Increase Amendment and the increase in authorized shares of common stock effected thereby, pursuant to Section 204 of the DGCL in order to eliminate any uncertainty related to the effectiveness of these corporate acts. If the ratification of the filing and effectiveness of the Share Increase Amendment, which is referred to as the Share Increase Ratification, is validly approved by the stockholders and becomes effective, the ratification will be retroactive to March 25, 2021, which was the date of the filing of the Share Increase Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the date the increase in authorized shares of common stock became effective.
If we receive the required vote of the stockholders to approve the Share Increase Ratification, we intend to file a certificate of validation with respect to the Share Increase Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which we refer to as the Certificate of Validation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If the Share Increase Ratification is not approved by the requisite vote of the stockholders, we will not be able to file the Certificate of Validation, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the Share Increase Ratification will not become effective in accordance with Section 204 of the DGCL. The failure to approve the Share Increase Ratification may leave us exposed to potential claims that (a) the vote on the Share Increase Amendment proposal did not receive the requisite stockholder approval, (b) the Share Increase Amendment was, therefore, not validly implemented by the board, and the corresponding increase in authorized shares was not validly effected, (c) any actions taken by us in reliance on the Share Increase Amendment, including the past issuances of common stock on and after March 25, 2021, were not properly effected and may not be valid, (d) we do not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of common stock to permit future sales and issuances of common stock, including pursuant to outstanding shares of preferred stock and equity awards and the issuances to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and (e) we would not be able to validate our total outstanding shares of common stock in connection with any strategic transaction that the board may determine is advisable, including under the Purchase Agreement. Any inability to issue common stock in the future and any invalidity of past issuances of common stock could expose us to significant claims.September 3, 2021.
Even ifthough we filed the Certificate of Validation, any claim that (i) the increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock and related issuance of such shares ratified pursuant to the Share Increase Ratification is void or voidable due to a failure of authorization, or (ii) the Delaware Court of Chancery should declare in its discretion that the Share Increase Ratification not be effective or be effective only on certain conditions, which we refer to collectively as the Subsequent Claims, may still be brought within 120 days from the time that the filing of the Certificate of Validation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware becomes effective in accordance with the DGCL.
We can provide no assurance as to when we will hold a meeting to seek stockholder approval for the Share Increase Ratification, that the Share Increase Ratification will be approved by the requisite vote of the stockholders or that Subsequent Claims will not be made within the available time period for making such claims. In addition, ifclaims or what the Share Increase Ratification is not approved we may be required to revise or restate certain share and per share amounts in our financial statements. Failure to do anyresolution of the abovesuch Subsequent Claims would be. If Subsequent Claims are made, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, which could result in our filing for bankruptcy or an involuntary petition for bankruptcy being filed against usus.
Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders and may restrict our operations.
We may raise additional capital at any time and may do so through one or more financing alternatives, including , including by selling shares of common stock to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement and other public or private sales of equity or debt securities directly to investors or through underwriters or placement agents. See “Our ability to raise capital may be limited by applicable laws and regulations.” Raising capital through the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of common stock) may depress the market price of common stock and may substantially dilute our existing stockholders. In addition, our board of directors may issue preferred stock with rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock. Debt financings could involve covenants that restrict our operations. These restrictive covenants may include limitations on additional borrowing and specific restrictions on the use of our assets, as well as prohibitions on our ability to create liens or make investments and may, among other things, preclude us from making distributions to stockholders (either by paying dividends or redeeming stock) and taking other actions beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, investors could impose more one-sided investment terms on companies that have or are perceived to have limited remaining funds or limited ability to raise additional funds. The lower our cash balance, the more difficult it is likely to be for us to raise additional capital on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Delaware law and provisions in our charter and bylaws could make a merger, tender offer or proxy contest difficult, thereby depressing the trading price of common stock.
Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if such a change in control would benefit our stockholders, or to make changes in the board of directors. For example, our certificate of incorporation (a) prohibits stockholders from filling vacancies on the board, calling special stockholder meetings, or taking action by written consent and (b) requires a supermajority vote of at least 80% of the total voting power of our outstanding shares, voting together as a single class, to remove our directors from office or to amend provisions relating to stockholders taking action by written consent or calling special stockholder meetings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Additionally, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control of our company. Some provisions:
authorize the issuance of preferred stock that can be created and issued by our board of directors without prior stockholder approval, with rights senior to those of the common stock;
prohibit our stockholders from making certain changes to our bylaws except with 66 2/3% stockholder approval; and
require advance written notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. These provisions could discourage third parties from taking control of our company. Such provisions may also impede a transaction in which stockholders could receive a premium over then current market prices and your ability to approve a transaction that stockholders might consider to be in their best interest. In addition, we are governed by Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporate Law, which may prohibit certain business combinations with stockholders owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. These and other provisions in our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law could make it more difficult for stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our board of directors or initiate actions that are opposed by the then-current board of directors, including delaying or impeding a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest involving our company. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in our board of directors could cause the market price of common stock to decline.
Our bylaws designate the state courts of the State of Delaware (or, if no such state court has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or with our directors, our officers or other employees, or our majority stockholder.
Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors or officers to our company or stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or our certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws, or (d) any action asserting a claim against us governed by the internal affairs doctrine. We do not expect this choice of forum provision will apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Although our bylaws contain the choice of forum provision described above, it is possible that a court could rule that such a provision is inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provision is unenforceable.
By becoming a stockholder in our company, you will be deemed to have notice of and have consented to the provisions of our bylaws related to choice of forum. The choice of forum provision in our bylaws may limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or any of our directors, officers, other employees, agents or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they publish negative evaluations of common stock or the stock of other companies in our industry, the price of our stock and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade the common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the common stock price would likely decline. In addition, if one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of the common stock or fails to publish reports about the common stock on a regular basis, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the common stock price or trading volume to decline.

Requirements associated with being a public reporting company involve significant ongoing costs and can divert significant company resources and management attention.
We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of the NYSE American,The Nasdaq Global Market, and other rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission, or the SEC. We are working with our legal, independent accounting and financial advisors to identify those areas in which changes should be made to our financial and management control systems to manage our growth and our obligations as a public reporting company. These areas include corporate governance, corporate control, disclosure controls and procedures, and financial reporting and accounting systems. We have made, and will continue to make, changes in these and other areas. Compliance with the various reporting and other requirements applicable to public reporting companies will require considerable time, attention of management and financial resources. In addition, the changes we make may not be sufficient to allow us to satisfy our obligations as a public reporting company on a timely basis.
The listing requirements of the NYSE AmericanThe Nasdaq Global Market require that we satisfy certain corporate governance requirements relating to director independence, distributing annual and interim reports, stockholder meetings, approvals and voting, soliciting proxies, conflicts of interest and a code of conduct. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to ensure that we comply with all of these requirements. The reporting requirements, rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These reporting requirements, rules and regulations, coupled with the increase in potential litigation exposure associated with being a public company, could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve as our directors or executive officers, or to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, on acceptable terms.
Short sellers of our stock may be manipulative and may drive down the market price of common stock.
Short selling is the practice of selling securities that a seller does not own but rather has borrowed, or intends to borrow, from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities at a later date to return to the lender. A short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is in the short seller’s interest for the price of the stock to decline, some short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, opinions or characterizations regarding the relevant issuer, its business prospects and similar matters calculated to or which may create negative market momentum, which may permit them to obtain profits for themselves as a result of selling the securities short. The use of the Internet, social media, and blogging have allowed short sellers to publicly attack a company’s credibility, strategy and veracity by means of so-called “research reports” that mimic the type of investment analysis performed by legitimate securities research analysts. Issuers with limited trading volumes or substantial retail stockholder bases can be particularly susceptible to higher volatility levels, and can be particularly vulnerable to such short attacks.
Short seller publications are not regulated by any governmental or self-regulatory organization or any other official authority in the United States and are not subject to the certification requirements imposed by the SEC in Regulation Analyst Certification. Accordingly, the opinions they express may be based on distortions of actual facts or, in some cases, outright fabrications. In light of the limited risks involved in publishing such information, and the significant profits that can be made from running successful short attacks, short sellers will likely continue to issue such reports. Short-seller publications may create the appearance or perception of wrongdoing, even when they are not substantiated, and may therefore affect the reputation or perception of our company and management.
While we intend to strongly defend our public filings against any such short seller attacks, in many situations we could be constrained, for example, by principles of freedom of speech, applicable state law or issues of commercial

confidentiality, in the manner in which we are able to proceed against the relevant short seller. Such short-seller attacks may cause temporary, or possibly long term, declines in the market price of common stock and possible litigation initiated against us.
If the common stock were delisted from the NYSE AmericanThe Nasdaq Global Market and determined to be a “penny stock,” a broker-dealer may find it more difficult to trade common stock and an investor may find it more difficult to acquire or dispose of common stock in the secondary market.
If the common stock were delisted or suspended from trading on the NYSE American,The Nasdaq Global Market, it may be subject to the so-called “penny stock” rules. The Securities and Exchange CommissionSEC has adopted regulations that define a “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price per share of less than $5.00, subject to certain

For any transaction involving a “penny stock,” unless exempt, the rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers, subject to certain exceptions.

Under the Purchase Agreement, however, we may elect, subject to satisfaction of specified conditions, to require theThe selling stockholder to purchase from time to time additional shares of common stock for a total purchase price of up to $40,000,000. We are obligated to pay to Maxim Group LLC, our financial adviser, a fee of 3.0% of the purchase price we receive from the selling stockholder in connection with each purchase of shares of common stock, including the value of the Commitment Shares, under the Purchase Agreement.
Any funds we receive from our sales of shares to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital and capital expenditures, research and development expenses, including clinical trial costs, general and administrative expenses, potential acquisition of, or investment in, companies, technologies, products or assets that complement our business, and repayment and refinancing of debt.
Pending use of funds we receive from sales of shares of common stock to the selling stockholder, we intend to invest the net amount of those funds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments, certificates of deposit, or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government. We have not determined the specific amounts to be used for such purposes, and as a result, management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of any funds we receive from any sale of shares to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.

DILUTION
Our sale of shares of common stock to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will have a dilutive impact on our stockholders. In addition, the lower the price of common stock is at the time we exercise our right to sell shares to the selling stockholder, the more shares of common stock we will have to issue to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the more dilution our existing stockholders will experience.
Dilution represents the difference between the amount per share paidpay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the selling stockholder to us pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the as adjusted pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after those issuances to the selling stockholder.
The net tangible book value of common stock as of March 31, 2021 was $(15.3) million,stockholders for brokerage, accounting, tax or $(0.37) per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share of common stock is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of shares of common stock outstanding on an as-converted basis.
The pro forma net tangible book value of common stock as of March 31, 2021 was $3.9 million,legal services or $0.09 per share of common stock. The pro forma net tangible book value gives effect to our issuance of a total of 1,127,736 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $19.2 million to Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC pursuant to a purchase agreement dated as of April 26, 2021.
The as adjusted pro forma net tangible book value of common stock as of March 31, 2021 would have been $41.1 million, or $0.90 per share of common stock. The as adjusted pro forma net tangible book value gives effect to the issuance of an aggregate of 50,000 shares of common stock, or the Commitment Shares, issued to the selling stockholder on May 26, 2021 as consideration for the selling stockholder’s commitment to purchase additional shares under the Purchase Agreement and assumes the sale of 2,819,881 shares of common stock to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement at an assumed average sale price of $13.68 per share, the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American on May 26, 2021, after deducting our 3.0% financial advisory fee and our estimated offering expenses. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted pro forma net tangible book value of $1.27 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $12.78 per share to investors based on the assumed average sale price of $13.68 per share.
To the extent that options outstanding as of March 31, 2021 have been or may be exercised orany other shares are issued, investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering 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 additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

THE LINCOLN PARK TRANSACTION
General
On April 26, 2021, we entered into a purchase agreement, or the Prior Purchase Agreement, with the selling stockholder, which provided for, among other things, the issuance and sale by us to the selling stockholder, from time to time at our sole discretion, of up to an aggregate of $20,000,000 shares of common stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions therein. The Prior Purchase Agreement terminated automatically by its terms on May 18, 2021, upon the sale of all of the $20,000,000 of shares contemplated thereby.
On May 26, 2021, we entered into a new Purchase Agreement and a new Registration Rights Agreement with the selling stockholder. The Purchase Agreement provides that we may elect, subject to satisfaction of specified conditions, to require the selling stockholder to purchase from time to time shares of common stock for up to an aggregate of $40,000,000 on or before    , 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we have filed the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Securities Act, a total of 2,869,881 shares of common stock that have been, or may be, issued to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we issued to the selling stockholder on May 26, 2021 the 50,000 Commitment Shares as consideration for the selling stockholder’s commitment to purchase shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement. The Commitment Shares are included in the 2,869,881 shares of common stock being registered for resaleexpenses incurred by the selling stockholder under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Under the termsstockholders in disposing of the Purchase Agreement, upon the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including that the registration statement includes this prospectus be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the selling stockholder, and upon our request the selling stockholderoffered shares. We will be obligated to purchase from us, shares of common stock for a total aggregate purchase price of up to $40,000,000. Any such sales of common stock by us will be subject to specified conditions and may occur from time to time, at our election, on or before    , 2024, subject to conditions specified in the Purchase Agreement. The selling stockholder has no right to require us to sell any shares of common stock to it, but it is obligated to make purchases as we elect, subject to conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. We are obligated to pay to Maxim Group LLC, our financial adviser, a fee of 3.0% of the purchase price we receive from the selling stockholder in connection with each purchase of shares of common stock, including the value of the Commitment Shares, under the Purchase Agreement.
A total of 2,869,881 shares of common stock that have been, or may be, issued to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement are being offered by this prospectus. Depending on the market prices of common stock at the various times we may elect to sell shares to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, we may be required, under the Registration Rights Agreement, to register for resale under the Securities Act additional shares of common stock that we may sell to the selling stockholder in order for us to receive the total commitment of $40,000,000 available under the Purchase Agreement. If we elect to issue and sell to the selling stockholder more than the 2,869,881 shares offered under this prospectus, which we have the right, but not the obligation, to do, we must first register for resale under the Securities Act any such additional shares, which could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares ultimately offered for resale by the selling stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares we sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.
Under applicable rules of the NYSE American, we would not be able to sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more than 7,169,313 shares of common stock (including the Commitment Shares), which represents 19.99% of the 41,505,998 shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Prior Purchase Agreement, less the 1,127,736 shares of common stock we issued to the selling stockholder under the Prior Purchase Agreement, and which 7,169,313 shares we refer to as the Exchange Cap, unless (a) we obtain stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap or (b) the per share purchase price of all applicable issuances and sales of common stock to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement equals or exceeds the greater of book or market value of common stock, as calculated in accordance with the applicable rules of the NYSE American, such that the issuances and sales of common stock to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement would not be subject to the Exchange Cap share issuance limitation described avove under applicable rules of the NYSE American.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Under the Purchase Agreement, we may not require the selling stockholder to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated withbear all other shares of common stock then beneficially owned bycosts, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the selling stockholder and its affiliates, would result in the selling stockholder having beneficial ownership at any time of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock, which limitation we refer to as the Beneficial Ownership Cap.
Purchase of Shares under the Purchase Agreement
Regular Purchases
Under the Purchase Agreement, we may elect from time to time, subject to specified conditions, to require the selling stockholder to purchase on any single business day, on which the closing price of common stock is equal to or greater than $1.00, which we refer to as a Regular Purchase, (a) up to 60,000 shares of common stock, (b) if the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American is at least $5.50 per share, up to 80,000 shares of common stock or (c) if the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American is at least $7.00 per share, up to 120,000 shares of common stock. In no case, however, will the selling stockholder’s commitment with respect to any single Regular Purchase exceed $2,000,000. The foregoing share amounts and per share prices will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement with respect to common stock.
The purchase price per share for each such Regular Purchase will be equal to the lower of:
the lowest sale price for common stock on the NYSE American on the purchase date of such shares; and
the average of the three lowest closing sale prices for common stock on the NYSE American during the ten consecutive business days ending on the business day immediately preceding the purchase date of such shares.
Accelerated Purchases
We may also require the selling stockholder, on any business day on which we have properly submitted a Regular Purchase notice for the maximum number of shares of common stock that we are then permitted to include in a single Regular Purchase notice, to purchase an additional number of shares of common stock, which we refer to as an Accelerated Purchase, not to exceed the lesser of:
three times the number of shares purchased pursuant to such corresponding Regular Purchase; and
thirty percent of the aggregate shares of common stock traded on the NYSE American during all or, if certain trading volume or market price thresholds specified in the Purchase Agreement are crossed on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date, which is defined as the next business day following the purchase date for the corresponding Regular Purchase, the portion of the normal trading hours on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date prior to such time that any one of such thresholds is crossed, which period of time on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date we refer to as the Accelerated Purchase Measurement Period.
The purchase price per share for each such Accelerated Purchase will be equal to 95% of the lower of:
the volume-weighted average price of common stock on the NYSE American during the applicable Accelerated Purchase Measurement Period on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date; and
the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American on the applicable Accelerated Purchase date.
Additional Accelerated Purchases
We may also require the selling stockholder on any business day on which an Accelerated Purchase has been completed and allregistration of the shares to be purchased thereunder (and under the corresponding Regular Purchase) have been properly delivered to the selling stockholder in accordance with the Purchase Agreement prior to such time on such business day, to purchase an additional number of shares of common stock, which we refer to as an Additional Accelerated Purchase, of up to the lower of:
three times the number of shares purchased pursuant to the applicable corresponding Regular Purchase; and
17

TABLE OF CONTENTS

thirty percent of the aggregate shares of common stock traded on the NYSE American during a certain portion of the normal trading hours on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date as determined in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, which period of time on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date we refer to as the Additional Accelerated Purchase Measurement Period.
We may elect to submit multiple Additional Accelerated Purchase notices to the selling stockholder on a single Accelerated Purchase date, provided that all prior Accelerated Purchases and Additional Accelerated Purchases (including those that have occurred earlier on the same day) have been completed and all of the shares to be purchased thereunder (and under the corresponding Regular Purchase) have been properly delivered to the selling stockholder in accordance with the Purchase Agreement.
The purchase price per share for each such Additional Accelerated Purchase will be equal to 95% of the lower of:
the volume-weighted average price of common stock on the NYSE American during the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase Measurement Period on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date; and
the closing sale price of common stock on the NYSE American on the applicable Additional Accelerated Purchase date.
In the case of Regular Purchases, Accelerated Purchases and Additional Accelerated Purchases, the purchase price per share will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute the purchase price.
Other than as described above, there are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement, and we will control the timing and amount of any sales of common stock to the selling stockholder.
Events of Default
Events of default under the Purchase Agreement include the following:
the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part lapses for any reason (including the issuance of a stop order), or any required prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus are unavailable for the resale by the selling stockholder of common stock offered hereby, and such lapse or unavailability continues for a period of ten consecutive business days or for more than an aggregate of thirty business days in any 365-day period, but excluding a lapse or unavailability where (a) we terminate a registration statement after the selling stockholder has confirmed in writing that all of the shares of common stock covered thereby have been resold or (b) we supersede one registration statement with another registration statement, including by terminating a prior registration statement when it is effectively replaced with a new registration statement covering the shares of common stock covered by the Purchase Agreement (provided in the case of this clause (b) that all of the shares of common stock covered by the superseded (or terminated) registration statement that have not theretofore been resold are included in the superseding (or new) registration statement);
suspension by the principal market of common stock from trading for a period of one business day;
the delisting of common stock from the NYSE American, our principal market, provided that common stock is not immediately thereafter trading on the New York Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Capital Market, The NASDAQ Global Market, The NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NYSE American, the NYSE Arca, the OTC Bulletin Board or the OTCQX or the OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or any nationally recognized successor thereto);
the failure for any reason by our transfer agent to issue shares of common stock to the selling stockholder within one business day after any Regular Purchase date, Accelerated Purchase date or Additional Accelerated Purchase date, as applicable, on which the selling stockholder is entitled to receive such shares;
any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or other term or condition contained in the Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement that has or could have a material adverse effect on us and, in the case of a breach of a covenant that is reasonably curable, that is not cured within five business days;
any voluntary or involuntary participation or threatened participation in insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings by or against us;
18

TABLE OF CONTENTS

if at any time we are not eligible to transfer common stock electronically via the Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian, or DWAC, system; or
if at any time the Exchange Cap is reached and our stockholders have not approved the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in accordance with the applicable NYSE American rules, to the extent applicable.
The selling stockholder does not have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement upon any of the events of default set forth above, but the Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate upon initiation of insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings by or against us. During any of the events of default, all of which are outside of the selling stockholder’s control, we may not require the selling stockholder to purchase any shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement.
Our Termination Rights
We have the unconditional right, at any time, for any reason and without any payment or liability to us, to give notice to the selling stockholder to terminate the Purchase Agreement.
No Short-Selling or Hedging by the Selling Stockholder
The selling stockholder has agreed that neither it nor any of its affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of common stock during any time prior to the termination of the Purchase Agreement.
Prohibitions on Similar Financings
Subject to specified exceptions included in the Purchase Agreement, we are limited in our ability to enter into any new “equity line” or similar transaction whereby an investor is irrevocably bound to purchase securities over a period of time from us at a price based on the market price of common stock at the time of such purchase.
Effect of Performance of the Purchase Agreement on our Stockholders
All shares of common stock registered for resale in the offering made by this prospectus, that have been, or may be, issued or sold by us to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement are expected to be freely tradable. The sale by the selling stockholder of a significant number of shares of common stock registered for resale in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of common stock to declineincluding all registration and to be highly volatile. Sales of common stock to the selling stockholder, if any, will depend upon market conditionsfiling fees and other factors to be determined by us. We may ultimately decide to sell to the selling stockholder all, some or none of the shares of common stock, other than the Commitment Shares, that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Iffees and when we do sell shares to the selling stockholder, after the selling stockholder has acquired the shares, the selling stockholder may resell all, some or none of those shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion. Therefore, sales to the selling stockholder by us under the Purchase Agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interestsexpenses of our other stockholders. In addition, if we sell a substantial number of shares to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement, or if investors expect that we will do so, the actual sales of shares or the mere existence ofcounsel and our arrangement with the selling stockholder may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect such sales. We generally have the right to control the timing and amount of any future sales of common stock to the selling stockholder, however, and we may terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time without any cost to us.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and as of the date hereof, we have the right, but not the obligation, to require the selling stockholder to purchase shares of common stock for a cumulative total purchase price of up to $40,000,000. Depending on the price per share at which we sell common stock to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we may need to sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more shares of common stock than are offered under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross funds equal to the total commitment available to us under the Purchase Agreement. If we choose to do so, we must first register for resale under the Securities Act such additional shares of common stock, which could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares ultimately offered for resale by the selling stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares we sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.accountants.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and Delaware General Corporation Law may have Anti-Takeover Effects
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. These provisions, which are summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and are designed in part to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with the board of directors.
Number of Directors; Vacancies
Our certificate of incorporation provides that the number of directors is established by the board of directors, which may delay the ability of stockholders to change the composition of a majority of the board. The board has the exclusive right to elect a director to fill any vacancy or newly created directorship.
Removal of Directors
A director may be removed only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of all shares entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
Stockholder Action by Written Consent; Special Meetings
Our certificate of incorporation provides that any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of such holders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such holders. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws also provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of our stockholders can only be called by the board of directors. These provisions may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors.
Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals
Our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to the board of directors. Stockholders at an annual meeting may consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the board or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form to our secretary of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business before the meeting. These provisions could have the effect of delaying until the next stockholder meeting stockholder actions that are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities.
Delaware Business Combination Statute
We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder, unless the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of the board of directors or unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the “interested stockholder” and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an “interested stockholder” is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
Any provision of our certificate of incorporation may be amended, altered, changed or repealed in any manner prescribed by law, provided that (a) the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of all shares entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to alter, amend, or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with Article X of the certificate of incorporation, which contains the prohibition on stockholder action by written consent and the requirement that special meetings be called only by the board of directors, and (b) Article XI of the certificate of incorporation, which provides that, subject to certain exceptions, no purchase by or from any Controlling Person (as defined below) of shares of our stock owned by such
2415

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Controlling Person shall be made at a price exceeding the average price paid by such Controlling Person for all shares of our stock acquired by such Controlling Person during the two-year period preceding the date of such proposed purchase unless such purchase is approved by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the voting power of the shares of our stock entitled to vote held by Disinterested Stockholders (as defined below), may not be amended without the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the our stock entitled to vote thereon, provided that if, at the time of such vote, there shall be one or more Controlling Persons, such affirmative vote shall include the affirmative vote in favor of such amendment of not less than a majority of the voting power of the shares of our stock entitled to vote thereon held by Disinterested Stockholders. “Controlling Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, association or other organization or entity (including any group formed for the purpose of acquiring, voting or holding our securities) which either directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, owns, beneficially or of record, or controls by agreement, voting trust or otherwise, at least 10% of the voting power of stock, and such term also includes any corporation, partnership, trust, association or other organization or entity in which one or more Controlling Persons have the power, through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, to influence significantly any of the management, activities or policies of such corporation, partnership, trust, association, other organization or entity. “Disinterested Stockholders” means those holders of stock entitled to vote on any matter, none of which is a Controlling Person.
The board may, by majority vote, amend or repeal our bylaws and may adopt new bylaws.
Our stockholders may not adopt, amend, or repeal our bylaws or adopt new bylaws except by the vote or written consent of at least 66-2/3% of the voting power of our company.
Exclusive Forum Selection
Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors or officers to our company or stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or our certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws, or (d) any action asserting a claim against us governed by the internal affairs doctrine. We do not expect this choice of forum provision will apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Although our bylaws contain the choice of forum provision described above, it is possible that a court could rule that such a provision is inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provision is unenforceable.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
Our authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing requirements of the NYSE American.The Nasdaq Global Market. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate finance transactions, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

As of May 26,November 8, 2021, we had outstanding options to purchase 3,237,2183,598,048 shares of common stock at a weighted average price $8.08$8.60 per share and 221,640 outstanding restricted stock units with a weighted average intrinsic value of $9.31 per share.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of the Delaware General Corporation Law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides that none of our directors shall be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability, except for liability (a) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) under section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he or she is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
Our certificate of incorporation provides that we will indemnify, in the manner and to the full extent permitted by law, any person (or the estate of any person) who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, by reason of the fact that such person is or was our director, officer, employee or agent, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Where required by law, the indemnification provided for shall be made only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination in the manner provided by law, that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper under the circumstances. We may, to the full extent permitted by law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person against any liability which may be asserted against him. To the full extent permitted by law, the indemnification provided shall include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, and in the manner provided by law any such expenses may be paid by us in advance of the final disposition of such action,

suit or proceeding. The indemnification described herein does not limit our right to indemnify any other person for any such expense to the full extent permitted by law, nor is it exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification from us may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.
The board of directors has approved a form of indemnification agreement that has been executed by each of our directors and executive officers. In general, these agreements each provide that we will indemnify the director or executive officer to the fullest extent permitted by law for claims arising in his or her capacity as a director or executive officer of our company or in connection with their service at our request for another corporation or entity. The indemnification agreements also provide for procedures that will apply in the event that a director or executive officer makes a claim for indemnification and establish certain presumptions that are favorable to the director or executive officer.
We maintain a general liability insurance policy that covers certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
Item 15.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
Set forth below is information regarding shares of common stock issued by us within the past three years that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Included is the consideration, if any, we received for such shares and information relating to the section of the Securities Act of 1933, or the rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission, under which exemption from registration was claimed.
On April 26, 2021, we entered into a purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, or Lincoln Park, pursuant to which we issued to Lincoln Park an aggregate of 1,127,736 shares of common stock from April 26, 2021 through May 18, 2021, of which (a) 56,041 shares of common stock were issued as consideration for Lincoln Park’s commitment to purchase shares of common stock under our April 26, 2021 purchase agreement, and (b) 1,071,695 shares were issued to Lincoln Park pursuant to the purchase agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $20.0 million.
On May 26, 2021, we entered into a purchase agreement with Lincoln Park pursuant to which we have the right to sellissued to Lincoln Park up to $40,000,000 inan aggregate of 2,424,254 shares of common stock subject to certain limitations, from time to time on or before      , 2024. On May 26, 2021 we issuedthrough September 20, 2021, of which (a) 50,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Parkwere issued as consideration for itsLincoln Park’s commitment to purchase shares of common stock under theour May 26, 2021 purchase agreement, and (b) 2,374,254 shares were issued to Lincoln Park pursuant to the purchase agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $34.1 million.
On July 16, 2021, we entered into an acquisition agreement to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of Novellus, Inc., which became our wholly owned subsidiary, and Novellus, Ltd. became our indirectly owned subsidiary. We also acquired 25% of the total outstanding equity interests of NoveCite, Inc. We delivered consideration that included 7,022,230 shares of common stock, which under the terms of the acquisition agreement were valued at a total of $102,000,000, based on a price of $14.5253 per share. The closing of the transaction, including the issuance of the common stock, was held contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the acquisition agreement.
No underwriters were involved in the foregoing issuances of securities. The securities described in this Item 15 were issued to investors in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as set forth in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder relative to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, to the extent an exemption from such registration was required. The recipients of securities in the transactions described above represented that they were accredited investors and were acquiring the securities for their own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof and that they could bear the risks of the investment and could hold the securities for an indefinite period of time and appropriate legends were affixed to the instruments representing such securities issued in such transactions.

Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the 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; and
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each 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 the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser,
(i)
each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii)
each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that 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.

securities in the registration statement to which that 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 Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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 Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions described herein, or otherwise, the Registrant 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 Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
