SUMMARY

The following summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you need to consider before making an investment decision. For a more complete understanding of our Company, you should read and consider carefully the more detailed information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, including the factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4 of this prospectus, as well as the information incorporated by reference from our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, before making an investment decision.

Company Overview

We are an advanced, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted antibacterial products that address high unmet medical needs to treat serious infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens.

Our lead product candidate, sulbactam-durlobactam, or SUL-DUR, is an intravenous combination of sulbactam, a β-lactam antibiotic, and durlobactam, a novel broad-spectrum β-lactamase inhibitor that we are developing for the treatment of pneumonia and bloodstream infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, or Acinetobacter. Based on current carbapenem resistance rates, we estimate there are in excess of 200,000 hospital-treated carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter infections annually across the United States, Europe, the Middle East and China for which significant morbidity and mortality exists due to limited treatment options. We initiated ATTACK (Acinetobacter Treatment Trial Against Colistin), our single Phase 3 registration trial in 2019, with top-line data readout expected in the second half of 2021. ATTACK is a global, multi-center trial that will evaluate approximately 120 patients with confirmed carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter hospital-acquired pneumonia, ventilator-acquired pneumonia, ventilated pneumonia or bloodstream infections, or a combination of these. We believe that the data from the ATTACK trial, data from our other clinical trials of SUL-DUR and non-clinical data will be sufficient to submit an NDA to the FDA.

Our second late-stage product candidate, zoliflodacin, is a novel orally administered molecule being developed for the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea. The bacterial pathogen responsible for gonorrhea is Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or N. gonorrhoeae, including multidrug-resistant strains. Intramuscular injections of ceftriaxone now represent the only U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, recommended treatment option for the estimated 1.6 million annual cases of gonorrhea in the United States. We believe there is a growing unmet need for a single-dose oral antibiotic that will reliably treat patients with gonorrhea, including infections caused by multidrug-resistant strains of N. gonorrhoeae, which are emerging globally. The Phase 3 registration trial, initiated in September 2019, is a multi-center, open-label, noninferiority trial in approximately 1,000 enrolled patients with uncomplicated gonorrhea. Our nonprofit collaborator, the Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership, is the sponsor of the registration trial and is responsible for all trial expenses. We believe data from the Phase 3 registration trial, along with data from our other clinical trials of zoliflodacin and non-clinical data will be sufficient for submitting an NDA to the FDA.

We are also developing ETX0282CPDP for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections, or cUTIs, including those caused by multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. ETX0282CPDP is an oral combination of ETX0282 with cefpodoxime proxetil. We believe there is a significant unmet need for new oral antibiotics to reliably treat the estimated 3 to 4 million patients diagnosed annually with cUTIs. We have reported preliminary Phase 1 trial results, and subsequently demonstrated that an extended release tablet formulation achieved preclinical proof-of-concept of the desired pharmacokinetic profile both in vitro and in non-human primates. Having successfully completed the initial Phase 1 studies and preclinical work to deliver a formulation with the desired extended release profile, we are currently prioritizing our resources on completing the ATTACK trial and supporting the ongoing Phase 3 registration trial for zoliflodacin, while we evaluate options for further clinical development of ETX0282CPDP.

Lastly, we are advancing development of a novel class of antibiotics, non β-lactam inhibitors of penicillin-binding proteins, or NBPs. We believe NBPs constitute a potential new class of Gram-negative

TABLE OF CONTENTS

antibacterial agents that are designed to target a broad spectrum of multidrug resistant bacterial pathogens that overcome the main source of β-lactam resistance which is driven by β-lactamase activity. This novel class of agent is designed to target a broad spectrum of multidrug resistant bacterial pathogens that are part of the CDC/World Health Organization list of high unmet medical need or ESKAPE pathogens. We selected ETX0462 as the initial clinical candidate for this program, based on demonstrated activity against Pseudomonas and a number of high-priority biothreat pathogens combined with a strong preclinical safety profile and attractive physiochemical properties. We currently anticipate completing the required pre-clinical activities by early 2022 to enable the program to advance into a Phase 1 clinical trial. In June 2020, we were awarded a contract from the National Institute of Health, or NIH, to support research towards developing additional NBP molecules with expanded Gram-negative spectrum from this novel class. This research program, designated NBP2, is attempting to target Klebsiella, Pseudomonas and E. coli from the ESKAPE list of pathogens. The NIH contract consists of an initial award of approximately $3.0 million, with the potential to increase up to $15.5 million. Subject to achieving pre-defined milestones, the contract is expected to sufficiently fund activities to achieve submission of an Investigational New Drug application to the FDA.

Going Concern

Since our inception, we have incurred recurring net losses and negative cash flows from our operations. We have financed our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of redeemable convertible preferred stock and the sale of our common stock. As of June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $56.4 million.

Based on our available cash resources, management expects that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021 will be sufficient to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through the second quarter of 2022. However, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date that we file our interim financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2021. A failure to raise additional funding or to effectively implement cost reductions could harm our business, results of operations and future prospects. We expect to seek additional funding to sustain our future operations and while we have successfully raised capital in the past, the ability to raise capital in future periods is not assured. If we are not able to secure adequate additional funding in future periods, we may make reductions in certain expenditures. This may include suspending or curtailing planned activities. We may also have to delay, reduce the scope of, suspend or eliminate one or more research and development programs or our commercialization efforts.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in March 2018. Our shares are listed on Nasdaq, where our trading symbol is ETTX. Our principal executive offices are located at 35 Gatehouse Drive, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 and our telephone number is (781) 810-0120. Our corporate website address is www.entasistx.com. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus, or any accompanying prospectus supplement, and you should not consider such information as part of this prospectus, or any accompanying prospectus supplement, when deciding whether to purchase our securities.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, or EGC, we are permitted and intend to take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies, including:

•

being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;

•

not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

•

reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and

•

not being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We currently take advantage of some or all these reporting exemptions and we may continue to do so until we are no longer an EGC. Accordingly, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock. We will remain an EGC until the earlier of (1) December 31, 2023, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (3) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of June 30 of such fiscal year, and (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

Under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, an EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we are subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Private Placement

On May 3, 2021, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, or the Securities Purchase Agreement, with the selling stockholder, pursuant to which we issued and sold to the selling stockholder 10,000,000 shares of our Common Stock and 10,000,000 Warrants with an exercise price per share of $2.00, for gross proceeds of $20 million, or the Private Placement. The Warrants are exercisable immediately and have a five-year term. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement we issued 3,731,025 shares of our Common Stock and 3,731,025 Warrants on May 3, 2021 and 6,268,975 shares of our Common Stock and 6,268,975 Warrants on June 11, 2021. Our stockholders approved the issuance of greater than 20% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock in the Private Placement at a special meeting of stockholders held on June 10, 2021.

In addition, in connection with the Private Placement and as required by the Securities Purchase Agreement, on May 3, 2021, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the selling stockholder, or the Registration Rights Agreement, in which we agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to resales of the Securities purchased by the selling stockholder under the Securities Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, as required by the Registration Rights Agreement, the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part relates to the offer and resale of the Securities issued to the selling stockholder pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement with the selling stockholder, we agreed to prepare and file with the SEC the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part that permits the resale of the Securities and, subject to certain exceptions, use reasonable best efforts to keep such registration statement effective under the Securities Act until (i) all Securities registered by the registration statement have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the selling stockholder, (ii) the Securities are sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, (iii) the Securities cease to be outstanding or (iv) the Securities have become eligible for sale by the selling stockholder pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction on the volume or manner of such sale and all restrictive legends and stop transfer instructions have been removed with respect to all book entries representing the Securities.

One or more holders may, on not more than two occasions within any 12-month period, request that we register all or a portion of their shares on Form S-3 if we are qualified to file a registration statement on Form S-3, subject to specified exceptions. Such request for registration on Form S-3 must cover securities with an aggregate offering price which equals or exceeds $3,000,000, net of selling expenses. The right to have such shares registered on Form S-3 is further subject to other specified conditions and limitations.

Other Provisions

In the event that any registration in which the holders of registrable shares participate pursuant to the investors’ rights agreement is an underwritten public offering, the number of registrable shares to be included may, in specified circumstances, be limited due to market conditions.

We will pay the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and selling commissions, for the shares registered pursuant to the demand, piggyback and Form S-3 registrations described above. Reasonable fees and expenses, however, for one counsel to the selling stockholder, shall be capped at $50,000. The registration rights agreement contains customary cross-indemnification provisions, pursuant to which we are obligated to indemnify the selling stockholder in the event of material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to us, and they are obligated to indemnify us for material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to them.

The demand, piggyback and Form S-3 registration rights described above will expire no later than five years after the completion of our initial public offering, or with respect to any particular holder, at such time that such holder can sell all of its shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act during any three-month period.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws include a number of provisions that may deter or impede hostile takeovers or changes of control or management. These provisions include:

•

Issuance of Undesignated Preferred Stock. Our Board has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by our Board. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock enables our Board to make it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.

•

Classified Board. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for a classified Board consisting of three classes of directors, with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. This provision may have the effect of delaying a change in control of our Board.

•

Board of Directors Vacancies. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws authorize only our Board to fill vacant directorships. In addition, the number of directors constituting our Board may be set only by resolution adopted by a majority vote of our entire Board. These provisions prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of our Board and gaining control of our Board by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominee.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Stockholder Action; Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that our stockholders may not take action by written consent, but may only take action at annual or special meetings of our stockholders. Stockholders will not be permitted to cumulate their votes for the election of directors. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the chairperson of our Board, our chief executive officer or president or by our Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors.

•

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations. Our amended and restated bylaws provide advance notice requirements for stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. Our amended and restated bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may make it more difficult for our stockholders to bring matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate directors at annual meetings of stockholders.

We designed these provisions to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our Board and its policies, to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened acquisition of us, and to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal. We also designed these provisions to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, these provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they may also reduce fluctuations in the market price of our shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a Delaware corporation 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 the corporation 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 stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock 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 and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 662∕3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include the following:

•

any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

•

any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

•

subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;

•

any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation 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 corporation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the entity or person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.

A Delaware corporation may “opt out” of these provisions with an express provision in its certificate of incorporation. We have not opted out of these provisions, which may as a result, discourage or prevent mergers or other takeover or change of control attempts of us.

Choice of Forum

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws; or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with one or more actions or proceedings described above, a court could find the choice of forum provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation further provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The transfer agent’s address is P.O. Box 505000, Louisville, KY 40233-5000. The transfer agent for any series of preferred stock that we may offer under this prospectus will be named and described in the prospectus supplement for that series.

Listing on Nasdaq

Our Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “ETTX.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

The following description of our Warrants is a summary. You should also refer to the forms of warrant certificates, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part.

Exercisability

The Warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Common Stock and are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance until 2026. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock, subject to any adjustments specified in the applicable warrant certificate.

The Warrants may be exercisable by each holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering the applicable warrant certificate and delivering to us a duly completed and executed subscription form, or any other written notice in a form reasonably satisfactory to us, accompanied by the purchase price for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise.

No shares of Common Stock will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would violate applicable securities laws.

Adjustments

If we, at any time while the Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivide or combine our outstanding Common Stock or any other securities exercisable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of, holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, cash or other property, (iii) effect a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or similar transaction, or (iv) enter into a fundamental transaction, as described in the applicable warrant certificate, then, in each case, the exercise price of the Warrant and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate exercise price or exchange basis will remain unchanged. Further, if we declare or make a distribution or dividend of cash or securities of the Company, then the holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to participate in such distribution.

Transferability

Subject to applicable laws and any reasonable requirements as we may require, the Warrants may be transferred by each holder by surrendering the applicable warrant certificate and delivering to us a duly completed and executed transfer form.

No Listing

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any securities exchange or recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

Fundamental Transactions

In the event of any fundamental transaction, as described in the applicable warrant certificate and generally including any merger with or into another entity, a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, a tender offer or exchange offer, a business combination or change in control, or a reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our shares of Common Stock, then upon any subsequent exercise of a Warrant, the holder will have the right to receive as alternative consideration, for each share of our Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such fundamental transaction, the number of shares of common stock of the successor entity of our Company, as adjusted in accordance with the applicable warrant certificate.

Cashless Exercise

Unless the Warrants could otherwise be exercised in accordance with the terms of the applicable warrant certificate, then without payment of the aggregate exercise price due on such exercise, the holder

TABLE OF CONTENTS

may elect instead to receive upon such exercise the number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the applicable warrant certificate. In the event that a cashless exercise results in a fractional number, we are required to pay cash in equivalent value in lieu of any fractional shares that would be due on exercise.

Rights as a Stockholder

Except as otherwise provided in the applicable warrant certificate or by virtue of a holder’s ownership of shares of Common Stock, the holders of the Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Warrants.

Amendments

Amendments and waivers of the terms of the applicable warrant certificate require our written consent and those of the holders of the Warrants.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholder, including its pledgees, donees, transferees, distributees, beneficiaries or other successors in interest, may from time to time offer some or all of the Securities by this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities covered by this prospectus by the selling stockholder. The selling stockholder will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the Securities covered by this prospectus.

The selling stockholder may sell all or a portion of the Securities beneficially owned by it and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the Securities are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling stockholder will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions in connection with the Securities held by the selling stockholder. The Securities may be sold on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the Securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at privately negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions.

The selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of Securities or interests therein:

•

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

•

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

•

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

•

an over-the-counter distribution;

•

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

•

privately negotiated transactions;

•

short sales effected after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

•

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

•

in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents;

•

through trading plans entered into by the selling stockholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;

•

through firm-commitment underwritten public offerings;

•

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

•

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholder may each, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities owned by it and, if it defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the Securities, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of the selling stockholder to include the pledgee, transferee, or other successors in interest as the selling stockholder under this prospectus. The selling stockholder also may transfer the Securities in

TABLE OF CONTENTS

other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of Securities, or interests therein, the selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions it assumes. The selling stockholder may also sell Securities short and deliver the Securities to close out its short positions, or loan or pledge the Securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such securities. The selling stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of Securities offered by this prospectus, which Securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the selling stockholder effects certain transactions by selling Securities to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from such selling stockholder or commissions from purchasers of the Securities for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will be in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with applicable rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with applicable FINRA rules.

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholder from the sale of the Securities offered by it will be the purchase price of the Securities less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Securities to be made directly or through agents. The selling stockholder also may resell all or a portion of the Securities in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, rather than under this prospectus, provided that it meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.

The selling stockholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Securities, or interests therein, may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the Securities may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The selling stockholder is subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

To the extent required pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, the Securities to be sold, the names of the selling stockholder, the purchase price and public offering price, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Securities may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

The selling stockholder and any other person participating in a sale of the Securities registered under this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Securities by the selling stockholder and any other participating person. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the Securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Securities. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholder may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the Securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
