Our Recent Private Placement
Securities Purchase Agreement
On August 7, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue 7,812,500 shares of common stock in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) at a per share purchase price of $0.64. The closing of the Private Placement occurred on August 9, 2024. We received gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million before deducting estimated offering fees and expenses payable by the Company. We expect to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, each of our directors and executive officers entered into lock-up agreements with the Company pursuant to which they agreed, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise), directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position, with respect to, any shares of our common stock or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into, shares of our common stock beneficially owned, held or hereafter acquired by such director or executive officer.
Registration Rights Agreement
Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors at the closing of the Private Placement pursuant to which we agreed to prepare and file a shelf resale registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) with the SEC within 30 days of the date of the closing for purposes of registering the resale of the shares of common stock (the “Registrable Securities”). The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part has been filed to satisfy this obligation. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 60 days of the date of the closing (90 days in the event the Resale Registration Statement is reviewed by the SEC). If we fail to meet the specified filing deadlines or keep the Resale Registration Statement effective, subject to certain permitted exceptions, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the Investors. We also agreed, among other things, to indemnify the selling stockholders from certain liabilities and to pay all fees and expenses incident to our performance of or compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

RISK FACTORS
Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the following risks and the risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on August 8, 2024, and in any other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our future filings. The occurrence of any of the events described below could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, prospects or the value of our common stock. These risks are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business.
Risks Related to this Offering and Our Common Stock
Sales of shares in connection with this offering may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
In connection with the Private Placement, we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to register for resale with the SEC the shares of our common stock issued to the selling stockholders in the Private Placement. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part has been filed to satisfy this obligation. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, the shares we issued in the Private Placement may be freely sold in the open market. The sale of a significant amount of these shares of our common stock in the open market, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or become highly volatile.
Shares of our common stock are equity securities and are subordinate to our outstanding indebtedness.
Shares of our common stock are common equity interests. This means that our common stock will rank junior to any outstanding shares of our preferred stock that we may issue in the future or to the indebtedness under our Amended and Restated Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement (Term Loan), as amended, and Amended and Restated Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement (Revolving Loan), as amended (together, the “Credit Agreements”) with MidCap Financial Trust and MidCap Funding IV Trust, respectively, and any future indebtedness we may incur and to all creditor claims and other non-equity claims against us and our assets available to satisfy claims on us, including claims in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding. Additionally, unlike indebtedness, where principal and interest customarily are payable on specified due dates, in the case of our common stock, (i) dividends are payable only when and if declared by our Board of Directors, and (ii) as a corporation, we are restricted to making dividend payments and redemption payments out of legally available assets. We have never paid a dividend on our common stock and have no current intention to pay dividends in the future. In addition, our Credit Agreements preclude us from paying dividends. Furthermore, our common stock places no restrictions on our business or operations or on our ability to incur indebtedness or engage in any transactions, subject only to the voting rights available to stockholders generally.
Our inability to comply with the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American could result in our common stock being delisted, which could affect its market price and liquidity and reduce our ability to raise capital.
We are required to meet certain qualitative and financial tests to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NYSE American. If we do not maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements for the NYSE American within specified periods and subject to permitted extensions, our common stock may be recommended for delisting (subject to any appeal we would file). No assurance can be provided that we will continue to comply with these continued listing requirements. If our common stock were delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell our common stock and to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of our stock could suffer a material decline. Delisting would also impair our ability to raise capital.
The market price of our common stock is extremely volatile, which may affect our ability to raise capital in the future and may subject the value of the investment of our stockholders to sudden decreases.
The market price for securities of medical device and biotechnology companies, including ours, historically has been highly volatile, and the market from time to time has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. The trading volume and prices of our common stock have been and may continue to be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors both within and beyond our control. During 2023, the sale price of our common stock ranged from $0.58 to $1.39 per share, and our daily trading volume ranged from 1,000 to 790,000 shares. During the first six months of 2024, the sale price of our common stock ranged from $1.31 to $0.60 per share, and our daily trading volume ranged from 7,300 to 949,700 shares. Such volatility may be the result of broad market and industry factors. Future fluctuations in the trading price or liquidity of our common stock may harm the value of the investment of our stockholders in our common stock. Factors that may have a significant impact on the market price and marketability of our common stock include, among others:
| ● | the terms of any potential future transaction(s) related to debt financing, debt restructuring or capital raising; |
| 2 |
| ● | our ability to make interest payments under our Credit Agreements; |
| ● | our observance of covenants under our Credit Agreements; |
| ● | announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by us or our present or potential competitors; |
| ● | developments or disputes concerning patent or other proprietary rights; |
| ● | developments in our relationships with employees, suppliers, distributors, sales representatives and customers; |
| ● | acquisitions or divestitures; |
| ● | litigation and government proceedings; |
| ● | adverse legislation, including changes in governmental regulation; |
| ● | third-party reimbursement policies; |
| ● | additions or departures of key personnel; |
| ● | sales of our equity securities by our significant stockholders or management or sales of additional equity securities by our Company; |
| ● | changes in securities analysts’ recommendations; |
| ● | short selling; |
| ● | changes in health care policies and practices; |
| ● | the delisting of our common stock or halting or suspension of trading in our common stock by the NYSE American; |
| ● | economic, social and other external factors, such as epidemics or pandemics, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages and persistent inflation; and |
| ● | general market conditions. |
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. These lawsuits often seek unspecified damages, and as with any litigation proceeding, one cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome of pending litigation. Furthermore, we may have to incur substantial expenses in connection with any such lawsuits and our management’s attention and resources could be diverted from operating our business as we respond to any such litigation. We maintain insurance to cover these risks for us and our directors and officers, but our insurance is subject to high deductibles to reduce premium expense, and there is no guarantee that the insurance will cover any specific claim that we currently face or may face in the future, or that it will be adequate to cover all potential liabilities and damages.
| 3 |
Our actual operating results may differ significantly from our guidance, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
We issue guidance regarding our future performance, such as our anticipated annual revenue, that represents our management’s estimates as of the date of release. This guidance, which consists of forward-looking statements, is prepared by our management and is qualified by, and subject to, the assumptions and the other information contained or referred to in the release. Our guidance is not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and neither any independent registered public accounting firm nor any other independent expert or outside party compiles, examines or reviews the guidance and, accordingly, no such person expresses any opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
Guidance is based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while presented with numerical specificity, is inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. We generally state possible outcomes as high and low ranges which are intended to provide a sensitivity analysis as variables are changed but are not intended to represent that actual results could not fall outside of these ranges. The principal reason that we release this data is to provide a basis for our management to discuss our business outlook with analysts and investors. We do not accept any responsibility for any projections or reports published by any such persons.
Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions of the guidance furnished by us will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Accordingly, our guidance is only an estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results will vary from the guidance and the variations may be material. Investors should also recognize that the reliability of any forecasted financial data will diminish the farther in the future that the data are forecast. In light of the foregoing, investors are urged to put the guidance in context and not to place undue reliance on it.
Any failure to successfully implement our operating strategy or the occurrence of any of the events or circumstances set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on August 8, 2024 could result in the actual operating results being different than our guidance, and such differences may be adverse and material. The failure to achieve such guidance could disappoint investors and analysts and cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
We may issue additional common stock resulting in stock ownership dilution.
From time to time, we issue equity securities to raise additional financing and in connection with debt restructurings. In our recent Private Placement, we issued $5.0 million of shares of common stock at a per share purchase price of $0.64 per share. Future dilution may occur due to additional future equity issuances and/or equity financing events by us, including any potential future restructuring of our outstanding indebtedness. In addition, we may raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, which would further dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. As of June 30, 2024, we had outstanding warrants to purchase approximately 12,237,470 shares of our common stock, stock options to purchase 4,719,585 shares of our common stock, restricted stock unit awards covering 3,948,058 shares of our common stock, performance stock unit awards covering 1,772,217 shares of our common stock (assuming target performance) and deferred stock unit awards covering 1,920,171 shares of our common stock under the Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and our prior equity compensation plan, and 5,554,340 shares available for issuance under the Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan. If these or any future warrants, options or restricted stock units are exercised or otherwise converted into shares of our common stock, our stockholders will experience additional dilution.
The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock or other equity securities could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock or a preferred stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities beneficially owned by OrbiMed Advisors LLC or any other stockholder or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of our common stock.
| 4 |
If securities analysts stop publishing research or reports about us or our business, or if they downgrade our common stock, the trading volume and market price of our common stock could decline.
The market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our business. We do not control these analysts. If any analyst who covers us downgrades our stock or lowers its future stock price targets or estimates of our operating results, our stock price could decline rapidly. Furthermore, if any analyst ceases to cover our Company, we could lose visibility in the market. Each of these events could, in turn, cause our trading volume and the market price of our common stock to decline.
Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and agreements may discourage or prevent a change in control, even if a sale of the Company could be beneficial to our stockholders, which could cause our stock price to decline and prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management.
Several provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Charter”) and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”) and our Investor Rights Agreement (as amended, the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with OrbiMed Royalty Opportunities II, LP (“Royalty Opportunities”) and ROS Acquisition Offshore (“ROS”) could make it difficult for our stockholders to change the composition of our Board of Directors, preventing them from changing the composition of management. In addition, several provisions of our Charter and Bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that our stockholders may consider favorable. These provisions include:
| ● | We have shares of common stock and preferred stock available for issuance without stockholder approval. The existence of unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock may enable the Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management or to issue preferred stock with terms that could render more difficult or discourage a third-party attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, thereby protecting the continuity of our management. |
| ● | Shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors, so our stockholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding will be able to elect all of our directors. |
| ● | Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors, the chair of the Board of Directors or the chief executive officer. |
| ● | The Board of Directors may adopt, alter, amend or repeal our Bylaws without stockholder approval. |
| ● | Unless otherwise provided by law, any newly created directorship or any vacancy occurring on the Board of Directors for any cause may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors even if such majority is less than a quorum, and any director so elected shall hold office until the expiration of the term of office of the director whom he or she has replaced or until his or her successor is elected and qualified. |
| ● | Prior to July 26, 2030, fixing the number of directors at more than seven directors requires the approval of at least 75% of our directors then holding office. |
| ● | The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to amend or repeal the provisions of our Charter related to the amendment of our Bylaws, the Board of Directors and our stockholders as well as the general provisions of our Charter. |
| ● | Stockholders must follow advance notice procedures to submit nominations of candidates for election to the Board of Directors at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders, including director election contests subject to the SEC’s universal proxy rules, and must follow advance notice procedures to submit other proposals for business to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders. |
| 5 |
| ● | Unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware does not have subject matter jurisdiction, a state court located within the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware), will be the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee to us or our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising under any provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”), our Charter or our Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal-affairs doctrine; provided, however, that unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. |
| ● | The Investor Rights Agreement includes director nomination rights, which provide that so long as the Ownership Threshold (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) is met, Royalty Opportunities and ROS are entitled to nominate such individuals to the Board of Directors constituting a majority of the directors. In addition, under the Investor Rights Agreement, so long as the Ownership Threshold is met, certain matters require the approval of Royalty Opportunities and ROS to proceed with such a transaction, including without limitation, the sale, transfer or other disposition of our assets or businesses or our subsidiaries with a value in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate during any fiscal year (other than sales of inventory or supplies in the ordinary course of business, sales of obsolete assets (excluding real estate), sale-leaseback transactions and accounts receivable factoring transactions). |
| ● | The Letter Agreement between us and Mr. Stavros Vizirgianakis includes director nomination rights, which terminate on the earlier of (i) the date on which Mr. Vizirgianakis ceases to hold at least 75% of the shares of common stock purchased by him in our 2022 private placement, (ii) October 7, 2024, or (iii) upon written notice of Mr. Vizirgianakis to us. |
These anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of our stockholders to benefit from a change in control and, as a result, could materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the ability of our stockholders to realize any potential change-in-control premium.
Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue and designate shares of our preferred stock without stockholder approval.
Our Charter authorizes our Board of Directors, without the approval of our stockholders, to issue up to 10 million shares of our preferred stock, subject to limitations prescribed by applicable law, rules and regulations and the provisions of our Charter, as shares of preferred stock in series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The powers, preferences and rights of these series of preferred stock may be senior to or on parity with our common stock, which may reduce its value.
Our Charter designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit the ability of our stockholders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.
Our Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware does not have subject matter jurisdiction, a state court located within the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware), will be the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee to us or our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising under any provision of the DGCL, our Charter or our Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal-affairs doctrine. Furthermore, unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of Xtant will be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions. This provision may limit the ability of our stockholders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.
We have never paid dividends and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future.
We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. The payment of dividends in the future will be dependent on our earnings and financial condition and on such other factors as our Board of Directors considers appropriate. Unless and until we pay dividends, stockholders may not receive a return on their shares of our common stock. There is no present intention by our Board of Directors to pay dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business. In addition, the terms of our Credit Agreements preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, appreciation, if any, in the market price of our common stock will be the sole source of gain for our stockholders for the foreseeable future.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, or filings with the SEC and our public releases, that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our “expectations,” “hopes,” “beliefs,” “intentions” or “strategies” regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should” and “would,” as well as similar expressions, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward looking. Forward-looking statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus may include, for example, statements about the following topics and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the following:
| ● | our use of proceeds from the Private Placement, which use is within the discretion of management; |
| ● | our ability to increase revenue and our ability to improve our gross margins, our operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, and obtain and sustain profitability; |

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following description, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes the material terms and provisions of our common stock and preferred stock and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of our Charter, Bylaws and the Investor Rights Agreement, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement that includes this prospectus and are incorporated by reference herein, and the agreement between the Company and Stavros G. Vizirgianakis (the “Lead Investor Agreement”). We encourage you to read our Charter, our Bylaws, the Investor Rights Agreement, the Lead Investor Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL for additional information.
Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock
Our Charter provides that we have authority to issue 300,000,000 shares of common stock, 138,710,402 of which are issued and outstanding as of August 28, 2024 and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which are issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. As of August 28, 2024, in the aggregate, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 12,237,470 shares of our common stock, stock options to purchase 4,459,062 shares of our common stock, restricted stock unit awards covering 3,249,340 shares of our common stock, performance stock unit awards covering 1,710,776 shares of our common stock (assuming target performance) and deferred stock unit awards covering 2,611,096 shares of our common stock under the Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and our prior equity compensation plan, and 4,553,228 shares available for issuance under the Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
Our preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is authorized, by resolution or resolutions, to fix the number of shares of any series of preferred stock and to determine the designation, powers, rights, preferences, qualifications, limitations, privileges and restrictions, if any, of any wholly unissued series of preferred stock, including without limitation, authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices and liquidation preferences of any such series, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing.
We may amend from time to time our Charter to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock or preferred stock. Any such amendment would require the approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote thereon. In addition, pursuant to our Charter, the Board of Directors is authorized to increase (but not above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series (including a series of preferred stock), the number of which was fixed by it, subsequent to the issuance of shares of such series then outstanding, subject to certain limitations, without the vote of our stockholders.
Common Stock
Voting Rights
Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders, including in all elections for directors. Stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of outstanding shares of any series of preferred stock we may designate and issue in the future, holders of our common stock are entitled to vote on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote.
Our stockholders may vote either in person or by proxy. At all meetings of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect. All other elections and questions presented to the stockholders at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall, unless otherwise provided by our Charter, our Bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to us or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to us or our securities, be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of our stock that are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of our Charter, Bylaws, the Investor Rights Agreement and the Lead Investor Agreement, Our Status as a Controlled Company and under the DGCL
Anti-takeover provisions in our Charter, Bylaws, the Investor Rights Agreement and the Lead Investor Agreement, our status as a controlled company and under the DGCL may discourage or prevent a change in control, even if such a sale could be beneficial to our stockholders.
Charter and Bylaws
Our Charter and Bylaws contain the following anti-takeover provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company:
| ● | We have shares of common stock and preferred stock available for issuance without stockholder approval. The existence of unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock may enable the Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management or to issue preferred stock with terms that could render more difficult or discourage a third-party attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, thereby protecting the continuity of our management. |
| ● | Shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors, so our stockholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding will be able to elect all of our directors. |
| ● | Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors, the Chair of the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer. |
| ● | The Board of Directors may adopt, alter, amend or repeal our Bylaws without stockholder approval. |
| ● | Unless otherwise provided by law, any newly created directorship or any vacancy occurring on the Board of Directors for any cause may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors, even if such majority is less than a quorum, and any director so elected shall hold office until the expiration of the term of office of the director whom he or she has replaced or until his or her successor is elected and qualified. |
| ● | Prior to July 26, 2030, fixing the number of directors at more than seven directors requires the approval of at least 75% of our directors then holding office. |
| ● | The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to amend or repeal the provisions of our Charter related to the amendment of our Bylaws, the Board of Directors and our stockholders as well as the general provisions of our Charter. |
| 11 |
| ● | Stockholders must follow advance notice procedures to submit nominations of candidates for election to the Board of Directors at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders, including director election contests subject to the SEC’s universal proxy rules, and must follow advance notice procedures to submit other proposals for business to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders. |
| ● | Unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware does not have subject matter jurisdiction, a state court located within the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) will be the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee to us or our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising under any provision of the DGCL, our Charter or our Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal-affairs doctrine; provided, however, that unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. |
Investor Rights Agreement
We are party to an Investor Rights Agreement, which includes certain provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. The Investor Rights Agreement includes director nomination rights, which provide that so long as the Ownership Threshold (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) is met, Royalty Opportunities and ROS are entitled to nominate such individuals to the Board of Directors constituting a majority of the directors. In addition, under the Investor Rights Agreement, so long as the Ownership Threshold is met, certain matters require the approval of Royalty Opportunities and ROS to proceed with such a transaction, including without limitation, the sale, transfer or other disposition of assets or businesses of the Company or its subsidiaries with a value in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate during any fiscal year (other than sales of inventory or supplies in the ordinary course of business, sales of obsolete assets (excluding real estate), sale-leaseback transactions and accounts receivable factoring transactions).
Lead Investor Agreement
In connection with our 2022 private placement, we entered into the Lead Investor Agreement with Stavros G. Vizirgianakis, as the lead investor of the 2022 private placement, pursuant to we agreed to provide certain director nomination rights to Mr. Vizirgianakis. Pursuant to the terms of the Lead Investor Agreement, we expanded the size of our Board of Directors by one position and elected Mr. Vizirgianakis as a director to fill the vacancy created as a result of the increase, effective upon completion of the first closing of the 2022 private placement. In addition, we elected Mr. Vizirgianakis as Chair of the Board of Directors, effective upon completion of the first closing. The director nomination rights set forth in the Lead Investor Agreement will terminate on the earlier of (i) the date on which Mr. Vizirgianakis ceases to hold at least 75% of the shares of our common stock to be purchased by him in the 2022 private placement; (ii) October 7, 2024; or (iii) upon written notice of Mr. Vizirgianakis to the Company.
Controlled Company Status
We are a “controlled company” as defined in section 801(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide because more than 50% of the combined voting power of all of our outstanding common stock is beneficially owned by OrbiMed Advisors LLC. Our status as a controlled company may have an anti-takeover effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company.
| 12 |
Section 203 of the DGCL
We have elected to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”), and we are prohibited from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:
| ● | before such date, the Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; | |
| ● | upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting shares outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting shares outstanding (but not the outstanding voting shares owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or | |
| ● | on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting shares that are not owned by the interested stockholder. |
In general, Section 203 defines business combination to include the following:
| ● | any merger or consolidation involving the company and the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the company involving the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the company of any shares of the company to the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | any transaction involving the company that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the shares or any class or series of shares of the company beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or | |
| ● | the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits by or through the company. |
In general, by reference to Section 203, an “interested stockholder” is an entity or person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status owned, 15% or more of the outstanding voting shares of the company.
Limitations of Liability and Indemnification Matters
We have adopted provisions in our Charter that limit or eliminate the liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties, except for a breach of the duty of loyalty to our Company or its stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or for any transaction from which a director or officer, as the case may be, derived an improper personal benefit. Accordingly, our directors and officers will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors or officers, respectively, except with respect to the following:
| ● | any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; | |
| ● | acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; | |
| ● | in the case of directors, unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; | |
| ● | any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; or | |
| ● | in the case of officers, any action by or in the right of the Company. |
This limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising under the federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. If Delaware law is amended to authorize the further elimination or limiting of director or officer liability, then the liability of our directors and/or officers will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law as so amended.
Our Bylaws provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law. We believe that indemnification under our Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. In addition, we have also entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers, pursuant to which we must:
| ● | indemnify officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise because of their status as officers and directors; | |
| ● | advance expenses, as incurred, to officers and directors in connection with a legal proceeding subject to limited exceptions; and | |
| ● | cover officers and directors under any general or directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by us. |
We also maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the opinion of the SEC is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 60 days of the date of the closing (90 days in the event the Resale Registration Statement is reviewed by the SEC). If we fail to meet the specified filing deadlines or keep the Resale Registration Statement effective, subject to certain permitted exceptions, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the Investors.

| ● | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; | |

| ● | through agents; or | |

The selling stockholders also may sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of our common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. In connection with sales of the shares of our common stock offered hereby or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of our common stock offered hereby in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock offered hereby short and deliver shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of our common stock offered hereby to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.
In offering the shares covered by this prospectus, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for the selling stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such case, any profits realized by the selling stockholders and the compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, exceed the amount permitted by applicable regulations.
In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and satisfied.
The selling stockholders have informed us that none of them has any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares of our common stock. If any selling stockholder notifies us that an arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares through a block trade, special offering or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we may be required to file a prospectus supplement pursuant to the applicable rules promulgated under the Securities Act.
There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of our common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part.
We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares of our common stock in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to use our best efforts to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the Securities Act, in order to permit this prospectus to be usable by the selling stockholders for a period from the date the registration statement becomes effective to, and including, the date upon which no registrable securities are outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act). We will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement and will reimburse the selling stockholders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel to act as counsel for the selling stockholders in connection with this offering.
