Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend a special meeting of the stockholders, or the Special Meeting, of Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, or Entasis. The Special Meeting will be held on June 10, 2021 at 9:45 a.m. local time and will be held in a completely virtual format. There will not be a physical location for the Special Meeting.

Details regarding the business to be conducted at the Special Meeting are described in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement.  At the Special Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on proposals to approve the option exchange and the Private Placement (as defined below).

On May 3, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Innoviva, Inc. ("Innoviva"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to Innoviva, in a private placement (the "Private Placement"), up to 10,000,000 shares (the "Shares") of our common stock, par value $0.001, and warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price per share of $2.00. The Purchase Agreement provides for the sale of the Shares and Warrants to Innoviva in units, each consisting of one Share and one Warrant, for a per unit price of $2.00. The Warrants will be immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date of issuance.

The Private Placement is occurring in two tranches. The closing of the first tranche (the "First Closing", and the issuance of Shares in the First Closing, the "First Placement") occurred on May 3, 2021, at which time Innoviva purchased 3,731,025 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 3,731,025 shares of common stock, in exchange for an aggregate gross purchase price of approximately $7.5 million.

At the closing of the second tranche (the "Second Closing," and the issuance of Shares in the Second Closing, the "Second Placement"), subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company's stockholders voting in favor of the transaction at this Special Meeting, Innoviva will purchase 6,268,975 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 6,268,975 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.5 million.

At the Special Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to approve the issuance of securities in the Second Placement, which, combined with the First Placement, would result in the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding shares of common stock at a discount to the “Minimum Price,” as defined under the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), on the date we entered into the Purchase Agreement, which under Nasdaq rules requires us to obtain stockholder approval.

The proxy statement attached to this letter provides you with more specific information concerning the Special Meeting, the Purchase Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Private Placement, and other related matters. It also provides information about the proposed stock option exchange (the “Option Exchange”) and information as to how to cast your vote. 

Details regarding the business to be conducted at the Special Meeting are described in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement.  At the Special Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on proposals to approve the Option Exchange and the Private Placement.

Stockholders of record at the close of business on April 27, 2021 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof. You may also attend and participate in the Special

Meeting virtually via the internet at www.meetingcenter.io/283100186 using the password ETTX2021 where you will be able to vote electronically and submit questions during the meeting. You will be able to vote electronically and submit questions during the Special Meeting only if you use your control number, which will be included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy card (if you received a printed copy of the proxy materials), to log on to the meeting.

Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we hope you will vote as soon as possible. You may vote over the Internet, by telephone or, if you receive a paper proxy card by mail, by completing and returning the proxy card or voting instruction form mailed to you. Please carefully review the instructions on each of your voting options described in this Proxy Statement, as well as in the notice you received in the mail.

On behalf of the Board of Directors and the employees of Entasis, we thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you at the Special Meeting.

Sincerely,

Instead, you may simply follow the instructions below to submit your proxy. As used in this Proxy Statement, references to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on the internet instead of a full set of Proxy Materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC we have elected to provide access to our Proxy Materials over the Internet. Accordingly, on or about May 17, 2021, we have sent you a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or the Notice of Internet Availability, because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Special Meeting, including at any adjournments or postponements of the Special Meeting. The Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders, or the Notice of Special Meeting, this Proxy Statement and proxy card or, for shares held in street name (held for your account by a broker, bank or other nominee), and voting instruction form, or collectively the Proxy Materials, are available to stockholders on our website at www.envisionreports.com/ETTXSpecialMeeting. The Notice of Internet Availability will provide instructions as to how stockholders may access and review the Proxy Materials or, alternatively, how to request that a copy of the Proxy Materials, including a proxy card, be sent to them by mail. The Notice of Internet Availability will also provide voting instructions. Please note that website addresses referenced herein are intended to provide inactive, textual references only, and the information on these websites is not incorporated by reference in or considered to be a part of this document.

We intend to mail the Notice of Internet Availability on or about May 17, 2021 to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. The Proxy Materials will be made available to stockholders on our website at www.envisionreports.com/ETTXSpecialMeeting on the same date.

Will I receive any other Proxy Materials by mail?

You will not receive any additional Proxy Materials via mail unless (1) you request a printed copy of the Proxy Materials in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Notice of Internet Availability or (2) we elect, in our discretion, to send you a proxy card and a second Notice of Internet Availability, which we may send on or after May 17, 2021.

How do I attend the special meeting?

The meeting will be held on Thursday, June 10, 2021 at 9:45 a.m. eastern time.

You may attend the Special Meeting virtually via the internet at www.meetingcenter.io/283100186 using the password ETTX2021. Stockholders may vote and submit questions while attending the Special Meeting virtually via the internet. You will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy card (if you received a paper delivery of proxy materials), to enter the Special Meeting via the internet. Instructions on how to attend and participate virtually via the internet, including how to demonstrate proof of share ownership, are posted at www.envisionreports.com/ETTXSpecialMeeting.

When is the record date for the Special Meeting?

The Board has fixed the record date for the Special Meeting as of the close of business on April 27, 2021.

Who can vote at the Special Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 27, 2021 will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. On this record date, there were a total of 37,310,254 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on April 27, 2021, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., or Computershare, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Special Meeting, vote by proxy over the telephone or through the internet, or vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee

If on April 27, 2021, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account of a broker, bank or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and that organization is responsible for delivering the Notice of Internet Availability to you. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Special Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Special Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Special Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

What am I voting on?

There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

● Approval of the Option Exchange

● Approval of the Private Placement

If stockholders approve the Private Placement Proposal, will I be required to sell my Common Stock?

        The Private Placement involves the purchase by Innoviva of newly issued shares of our common stock and Warrants. You will not be required to sell any of your common stock.     

2

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record and your shares are registered directly in your name, you may vote:

● By Internet. To vote through the internet, go to www.envisionreports.com/ETTXSpecialMeeting to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the company number and control number from the Notice of Internet Availability. Your Internet vote must be received by 1:00 a.m., Eastern time, on June 10, 2021 to be counted.

● By Telephone. Call (800) 652-8683 toll-free from the U.S., U.S. territories and Canada, and follow the instructions on the Notice. You will be asked to provide your control number from the Notice. Your telephone vote must be received by 1:00 a.m., Eastern time, on June 10, 2021 to be counted.

● By Proxy Card. Complete and mail the proxy card, which you may have received by mail, and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If you return your signed proxy card to us before the Special Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.

● Virtually at the Special Meeting. Registered holders may vote during the Special Meeting via the Internet by going to www.meetingcenter.io/283100186, entering in the meeting password ETTX2021, clicking on the “Cast Your Vote” link and entering the control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or, if you received a printed copy of the proxy materials, on your proxy card to be able to vote during the Special Meeting via the Internet.

If your shares of common stock are held in “street name” (i.e., held for your account by a broker, bank or other nominee), you should receive a notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from us. You should follow the instructions in the notice to ensure your vote is counted. To vote at the Special Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee or contact your broker, bank or other nominee to request a proxy form.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of April 27, 2021.

What are the Board’s recommendations on how to vote my shares?

The Board recommends a vote:

Proposal 1: FOR approval of the Option Exchange; and

Proposal 2: FOR approval of the Private Placement Proposal.

Who is paying for the cost for soliciting proxies?

We will pay the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these Proxy Materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We will also reimburse brokers, banks, custodians, other nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding these materials to their principals to obtain the authorization for the execution of proxies.

3

What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions?

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “For” the approval of the Option Exchange.

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, what happens?

If your shares are held in street name, your broker, bank or other nominee may under certain circumstances vote your shares if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares. Brokers, banks and other nominees can vote your shares on routine matters, but cannot vote such shares on non-routine matters. The approval of the Option Exchange (Proposal 1) and approval of the Private Placement Proposal (Proposal 2) are non-routine matters. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee. This ensures that your shares will be voted at the Special Meeting according to your instructions. You should receive directions from your broker, bank or other nominee about how to submit your proxy to them at the time you receive this Proxy Statement.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability?

If you receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

Yes. If you are the stockholder of record for your shares, you may revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Special Meeting in one of the following ways:

● by notifying our Secretary in writing at 35 Gatehouse Drive, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 that you are revoking your proxy;

● by submitting another properly completed proxy with a later date;

● by transmitting a subsequent vote over the Internet or by telephone prior to 1:00 a.m., Eastern time, on June 10, 2021; or

● by attending the Special Meeting and voting via the Internet at www.meetingcenter.io/283100186 using the password ETTX2021.

Your last vote, whether prior to or at the Special Meeting, is the vote that we will count.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee

If your shares are held in “street name”, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee for instructions as to how to change your vote. Your attendance at the Special Meeting does not revoke your proxy. Your last vote, whether prior to or at the Special Meeting, is the vote that we will count.

4

How is a quorum reached?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present at the Special Meeting in person or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 37,310,254 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of 18,655,128 shares must be present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting to have a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the holders of a majority of shares present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another date.

What are “broker non-votes”?

As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine,” the broker, bank or other nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares and uninstructed shares for which the broker, bank or other nominee does not elect to exercise discretionary authority over “routine” matters are “broker non-votes.”

What vote is required to approve each proposal and how are votes counted?

The vote required to approve the matter scheduled for a vote at the Special Meeting is set forth below:

Proposal	Board Recommendation	Vote Required	Broker Discretionary Voting Allowed?
Proposal 1: Approval of the Option Exchange	FOR	Majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy	No
Proposal 2: Approval of the Private Placement Proposal	FOR	Majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy	No

Majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy means that a proposal that receives an affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter will be approved. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. Broker non-votes, if any, will not be counted “For” or “Against” Proposals 1 and 2 and will have no effect on the outcome of such proposals.

Who counts the votes?

Computershare has been engaged as our independent agent to tabulate stockholder votes as the Inspector of Elections. If you are a stockholder of record, your executed proxy card should be returned directly to Computershare for tabulation. If you hold your shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, your broker, bank or other nominee will return one proxy card to Computershare on behalf of all its clients.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Special Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at our Special Meeting. We expect to announce final voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC no later than the fourth business day after the Special Meeting. If

5

final voting results are not available at that time, we will disclose the preliminary results in the Current Report on Form 8-K and, within four business days after the final voting results are known to us, file an amended Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results.

Who should I call if I have any additional questions?

If you are the stockholder of record for your shares, please call Michael Gutch, Ph.D., our Secretary, at (781) 810-0120. If your shares are held in street name, please contact the telephone number provided on your voting instruction form or contact your broker, bank or other nominee directly.

PROPOSAL 1: APPROVE THE STOCK OPTION EXCHANGE PROGRAM

General

On April 7, 2020, our Board, upon the recommendation of our Compensation Committee, authorized, subject to shareholder approval, a stock option exchange program, or the Option Exchange, pursuant to which we would give eligible employees (including executive officers), certain consultants and outside directors the opportunity to exchange eligible stock options for new stock options with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the day the new stock options are granted. An eligible stock option generally includes any stock option held by an Eligible Option Holder (as defined below) that has an exercise price equal to or greater than $4.98 per share, which is not set to expire in calendar year 2021, and which was granted pursuant to our 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, or the 2018 Plan, our Amended and Restated Stock Plan, or our 2015 Plan, or collectively our Equity Plans. Employees, including executive officers, employed by us at the start of the Option Exchange, certain consultants providing services as consultants at the start of the Option Exchange and non-employee members of our Board providing services to us as directors at the start of the Option Exchange, collectively Eligible Option Holders, are eligible to participate in the Option Exchange.

As of April 1, 2021, we had outstanding stock options held by employees (including executive officers), and outside directors to purchase 3,050,321 shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $5.62 per share. Of these stock options, there were 1,617,066 options with an exercise price equal to or greater than $4.98 per share with a weighted average exercise price of $7.14 that are not set to expire in 2021 and that would be considered eligible for purposes of the Option Exchange.

The Board believes that the Option Exchange is in the best interests of our stockholders and Entasis, as we believe that new stock options granted under the Option Exchange will provide a better incentive and motivation to employees, executive officers, consultants and directors than the underwater options they currently hold and would surrender, while balancing the need to minimize dilution for our stockholders. Receipt of new options at a lower exercise price will increase the retention of our talented personnel, reduce the costs and disruptions associated with resignations of such individuals, minimize dilution for our stockholders and better ensure our performance as a company. The number of shares covered by new options granted to participating Eligible Option Holders will be less than the number of shares covered by exchanged options. Any new options issued in exchange for vested options will have a minimum of a one-year vesting period before they can be exercised. As an alternative to a cash-based retention program, the Option Exchange will allow us to devote more of our cash resources toward advancing our research and development programs and moving our product candidates into and through the clinic. In addition, it will provide the opportunity to reduce the “overhang” of outstanding stock options, many of which are well out of the money.

Rationale for Option Exchange

We have been thoughtfully considering the idea of an Option Exchange since early 2020. We began internal discussions to consider various ways to better retain and incentivize employees to accelerate development activities for the organization. In late 2020, we began discussions with our compensation consultant, Willis Towers Watson, to evaluate the equity compensation alternatives available to us. We evaluated several alternatives to the Option Exchange for remaining competitive within our industry, including granting additional stock options or restricted stock awards, exchanging underwater options for full value shares or exchanging underwater options for a cash payment. While equity awards and cash compensation are part of our overall compensation packages, we do not believe that relying exclusively on such approaches is an ideal use of our resources. For example, granting additional stock options or restricted stock awards would cause dilution to our current stockholders, and introducing a cash-based retention program would reduce the cash resources we can devote to our research and development programs. We have decided that executive officers should be eligible to participate in the Option Exchange, as they currently hold approximately 62% of outstanding equity awards. As such, if we were to exclude them, we may not fully achieve the intentions of the program with respect to retention and dilution. In addition, during this critical time for the organization, we need to keep our executives incentivized in order to maintain continuity and to increase the likelihood of achieving significant milestones that would bring value to the organization and our stockholders. Outside directors and consultants are being included in the interest

7

of treating all option holders consistently. Accordingly, we determined that the Option Exchange was the most attractive alternative for stockholders for the reasons set forth below.

Performance Incentives

We face significant competition for experienced and talented personnel with critical and high demand skills in our industry generally and in the antibiotic space in particular. Stock options are an important part of our incentive compensation. The price of our common stock has significantly decreased since our initial public offering in September 2018, at which point our stock price was approximately $10.88 per share. While we have made significant progress in developing our product candidates and advancing our two Phase III clinical trials and pipeline candidates, and while we remain optimistic regarding our growth potential, the price of our common stock remains relatively low due to market factors negatively impacting the antibiotics sector. On April 1, 2021, the closing price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market was $2.16 per share, resulting in 98% of our outstanding stock options held by employees, consultants, executive officers and outside directors being underwater, which means that the stock option exercise price exceeded the market price of our common stock on such date. Our compensatory stock options cannot be sold. They can either be voluntarily exercised if the market price of our common stock exceeds the exercise price or they will expire unexercised. Stock options that are so significantly underwater are not effective as performance incentives because they provide less or no perceived value to option holders. In addition, because all of our options are significantly underwater, the likelihood that there will be a positive spread between their exercise prices and the near-term price of our common stock is too low to provide meaningful incentive to option holders.

Personnel Retention

We designed the Option Exchange to restore equity value, increase retention and motivation in a competitive labor market, provide non-cash compensation incentives and better align our employee and stockholder interests for long-term growth. Underwater stock option awards are of limited benefit in motivating and retaining our employees, and this is particularly the case for stock options that are significantly underwater. Through the Option Exchange, we believe that we will be able to enhance long-term stockholder value by increasing our ability to retain experienced and talented personnel and by better aligning the interests of these individuals with the interests of our stockholders. As of April 1. 2021, 98% of the stock options held by our employees, including executive officers, consultants and outside directors were underwater and, for a large number of such individuals, significantly so. As a result, we may face considerable challenges in retaining our employees, and there is a possibility that our competitors may be able to offer equity incentives that are more attractive and that, in some cases, could make the terms of employment with such competitor more attractive than what we offer to our existing employees. The Option Exchange is designed to address these concerns as well as maintain positive morale among our personnel and reinvigorate a culture where equity compensation is a key component of our overall compensation package.

As discussed in more detail below, vesting of new stock options issued under the Option Exchange will match the vesting of the exchanged options for options with a remaining vesting period exceeding 12 months. For exchanged options with a remaining vesting period of 12 months or less, the vesting period for the new stock options issued under the Option Exchange will be 12 months from the date of grant. The Compensation Committee believes that maintaining the vesting status and schedule for the newly issued options in the Option Exchange for options that have already vested or have a remaining vesting period of greater than 12 months incentivizes employees by recognizing the value of their contributions to the Company over the years while also incentivizing them to remain with the Company for the remainder of the vesting periods to allow recognition for the full value of the awards. For exchanged options with vesting periods of 12 months or less, the Compensation Committee believes that resetting the vesting period to 12 months from the date of grant encourages retention of such option holders over the next 12 months, which are likely to be of significance given the expectation of Phase 3 topline data in the second half of 2021.

Impact on Compensation Expense

The value of the stock options eligible for exchange was based on the then fair market value of our common stock on the applicable grant date. Under applicable accounting rules, we will recognize non-cash compensation expense related to existing eligible underwater stock options, which we will continue to be obligated to expense, even if these

stock options are never exercised because they remain underwater, except to the extent any such options are cancelled due to termination of service of any eligible option holder prior to vesting. Replacing current stock options that have little or no retention or incentive value with new stock options that will provide both retention and incentive value while not creating significant additional compensation expense will make efficient use of our resources.

Reduce Stock Overhang

Under the Option Exchange, Eligible Option Holders will receive new stock options covering a smaller number of shares than are covered by the surrendered stock options. Therefore, if we implement and Eligible Option Holders participate in the Option Exchange, we would meaningfully reduce the number of outstanding stock options. The number of shares covered by the new stock options are based on exchange ratios developed by using a Black-Scholes calculation that values the old grant relative to the projected value of the new grant, such that the new stock options will have a fair value, on an aggregate basis, proportionate to the fair value of the eligible stock options they replace. Our Compensation Committee, in consultation with Willis Towers Watson, our compensation consultant, established the exchange ratios, which vary based on the original exercise price of the eligible stock option, as described further in the section titled “Exchange Ratios” below.

As of April 1, 2021, we had a total of 3,050,321 shares of common stock subject to outstanding stock options under our Equity Plans, with exercise prices ranging from $1.72 per share to $15.00 per share. As a result, we have developed a significant stock option “overhang” consisting of outstanding but unexercised options that are not serving their intended purposes of motivating and retaining personnel. Not only do the underwater stock options have diminished personnel retention value, but also they cannot be removed from our equity award overhang until they are exercised, expire or are otherwise cancelled (for example, upon termination of an individual’s service with the company). Significant overhang may portend additional dilution to existing and potential stockholders and may therefore have the effect of inhibiting additional investment in our common stock, which can have a negative impact on stock price and trading volume. By replacing stock options through the Option Exchange, we estimate that we can reduce our overhang of outstanding stock options by as much as 427,203 shares, or 1.1% of our outstanding common stock.

Decrease Pressure for Additional Grants

If we are unable to conduct an Option Exchange in which underwater options with diminished incentive value may be exchanged for equity awards covering a lesser number of shares that provide higher motivation and retentive value, we may find it necessary to issue significant additional equity awards above and beyond our ongoing equity grant practices in order to provide renewed incentive to such individuals. Any such additional grants would increase our overhang as well as our compensation expense and would result in additional potential dilution to stockholders.

Alignment of Interests

Employees, including our executive officers, consultants and outside directors are eligible to participate in the Option Exchange. Because the equity awards to be issued pursuant to the Option Exchange are stock options, our Eligible Option Holders will only receive value for such equity awards based on positive stock price performance. This aligns the interests of our Eligible Option Holders with our stockholders. Additionally, because executive officers currently hold approximately 62% of our outstanding equity awards, to exclude them from the Option Exchange would limit the impact of the program with respect to reducing dilution and overhang. Outside directors and consultants are being included in the interest of treating all option holders consistently.

Alternatives Considered

Our Compensation Committee considered alternatives to the Option Exchange to provide a meaningful performance and retention incentive, including providing new option or restricted stock awards, exchanging underwater options for full value shares or exchanging underwater options for a cash payment. After careful consideration, our Compensation Committee determined that the Option Exchange provides better performance and retention incentives at a lower cost to the company and/or with less dilution to stockholders when compared with other alternatives.

Structure of the Option Exchange

The Board, upon recommendation of our Compensation Committee, authorized the Option Exchange on April 24, 2021, subject to stockholder approval. We currently plan to commence the Option Exchange on a date as soon as practicable following the Special Meeting, or the Commencement Date. At the start of the Option Exchange, Eligible Option Holders holding eligible stock options will receive a written exchange offer that will set forth the terms of the Option Exchange. The written offer will be governed by the tender offer rules of the SEC. At or before the Commencement Date, we will file the offer to exchange and other related documents with the SEC as part of a tender offer statement on Schedule TO. We will give Eligible Option Holders at least 20 business days to elect to participate in the Option Exchange. Eligible Option Holders may choose which eligible option grants they wish to exchange and may choose to not exchange portions of eligible option grants. Set forth below is a description of the key features of the Option Exchange.

Eligible Option Holder Participants

The Option Exchange will only be available to employees, including executive officers, certain consultants and outside directors who on the Commencement Date are providing services to us and hold outstanding eligible stock options. Members of our Board and our executive officers are eligible to participate in the Option Exchange. As of April 1, 2021, eligible stock options represented 53% of total outstanding options. Participants in the Option Exchange must continue to be employed by or providing services to us on the date the surrendered options are cancelled and replacement stock options are granted. Any employee, consultant or outside director holding eligible stock options who elects to participate in the Option Exchange but whose service with us terminates for any reason before the date the new stock options are granted, including due to voluntary resignation, retirement, involuntary termination, layoff, death or disability, would retain his or her eligible options subject to their existing terms and would not be eligible to receive new stock options in the Option Exchange.

Eligible Stock Options

As of April 1, 2021, we had outstanding eligible stock options to purchase 1,617,066 shares of common stock under our Equity Plans at a weighted-average exercise price of $7.14 per share and with a weighted-average remaining life of 7.36 years. These eligible stock options represent approximately 4.33% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock as of April 1, 2021. If 100% of Eligible Option Holders as of April 1, 2021 participate in the Option Exchange, and based on the exchange ratios established by our Compensation Committee, eligible stock options to purchase approximately 1,617,066 shares of common stock may be surrendered and cancelled in the Option Exchange, which would result in the company issuing stock options for approximately 1,189,863 shares of common stock and would result in a net reduction in our stock option overhang of approximately 427,203 shares of common stock (or 1.1% of our issued and outstanding shares).

Exchange Ratios; Exercise Price of New Options

The Option Exchange is not a one-for-one exchange. We designed the exchange ratios for the Option Exchange to result in a fair value of the new stock options that will be proportionate, on an aggregate basis, to the fair value of the eligible stock options that individuals would surrender (based on valuation assumptions made when the design of the Option Exchange was approved by our Compensation Committee). We established the exchange ratios by grouping together eligible stock options with similar exercise prices. At the time the Compensation Committee approved the general design of the Option Exchange, including the exchange ratios, the fair market value of our common stock was $2.10 per share (the closing price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on March 30, 2021. The exchange ratios are based on the fair value of the eligible stock options (calculated using the Black-Scholes model) within the relevant grouping. Calculation of fair value takes into account variables such as the volatility of our stock, the expected term of a stock option and interest rates. As illustrated in the table below, the applicable exchange ratios will vary based on the exercise price of the eligible stock option.

10

Exchange Price Range per Share	Number of Outstanding Eligible Options	Exchange Ratio (Surrendered Stock Options to New Stock Options)
$4.98	184,782	1.5 for 1
$5.01 - $5.34	124,500	1.2 for 1
$5.66 - $6.12	691,813	1.3 for 1
$6.40 - $6.79	52,500	1.2 for 1
$6.85	313,687	1.3 for 1
$6.90	25,000	1.2 for 1
$15.00	224,784	1.8 for 1

The total number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of new stock options will be determined by dividing the number of shares underlying the surrendered stock option by the applicable exchange ratio and rounding up to the nearest whole share. For purposes of illustration, if an Eligible Option Holder holds a stock option to purchase 1,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $4.98 per share, the option holder would be entitled to exchange that option for a replacement stock option to purchase 666 shares of common stock after applying the applicable 1.5:1 exchange ratio. For further illustration, an Eligible Option Holder who holds an option to purchase 1,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $15 per share could exchange that option for a replacement stock option to purchase 555 shares of common stock after applying the applicable 1.8:1 exchange ratio. All replacement stock options granted based on the foregoing exchange ratios will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock at the time we grant replacement options at the end of the exchange period.

Vesting Schedules for New Options

Vesting of new stock options issued under the Option Exchange will match the vesting of the exchanged options for options with a remaining vesting period exceeding 12 months. For exchanged options with a remaining vesting period of 12 months or less, the vesting period for the new stock options issued under the Option Exchange will be 12 months from the date of grant of the new stock options. These vesting schedules support the nature of stock options as an incentive vehicle, recognize the prior services and contributions of Eligible Option Holders and provide us with valuable additional years of personnel retention during an important time for the Company while also reducing the chance that Eligible Option Holders decline to participate in the Option Exchange, which would reduce the intended impact of the Option Exchange program with respect to dilution and overhang.

Term for New Options

The new stock options will expire 10 years following the date we grant the new stock options.

Intended Implementation of the Option Exchange As Soon As Practicable Following the Date of the Special Meeting

We currently plan to commence the Option Exchange as soon as practicable after the date of the Special Meeting. Our Board reserves the right in its discretion to amend, postpone or, under certain circumstances, cancel the Option Exchange once it has commenced, but the Option Exchange will not be materially amended in a manner that is more beneficial to Eligible Option Holder participants without first seeking additional stockholder approval.

Impact of Option Exchange on Surrendered Options

Assuming all Eligible Option Holders participate in the Option Exchange with respect to 100% of their eligible stock options, we estimate that there will be 427,203 shares of common stock underlying stock options that are surrendered under the Option Exchange but are not replaced by new stock options, based on the number of shares subject to outstanding options on April 1, 2021. These shares will be returned to the share reserve of the 2018 Plan and will be available for future grant of equity awards under the 2018 Plan.

11

Option Exchange Process

Additional information regarding how we expect to conduct the Option Exchange, provided it is approved by stockholders, is set forth below. While the terms of the Option Exchange are expected to conform to the material terms described in this Proposal 1 we may find it necessary or appropriate to change the terms of the Option Exchange to take into account our administrative needs, accounting rules, or company policy decisions or to comply with any comments we receive from the SEC. We may decide not to implement the Option Exchange even if we obtain stockholder approval, or we may delay, amend or terminate the Option Exchange once it is in progress. The final terms of the Option Exchange will be described in the exchange offer documents that will be filed with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov.

Overview of the Option Exchange Process

Upon commencement of the Option Exchange, those Eligible Option Holder participants holding eligible stock options will receive a written offer setting forth the terms of the Option Exchange and may voluntarily elect to participate. All employees, consultants and outside directors who are employed by or providing service to us on the Commencement Date, are still employed by or providing service to us on the grant date of the new stock options, and hold eligible stock option awards may participate in the Option Exchange. We will give Eligible Option Holders at least 20 business days to elect to surrender eligible stock options in exchange for a smaller number of new stock options. Upon completion of the Option Exchange, surrendered stock options will be cancelled and new stock options will be granted.

The 2018 Plan will govern all terms and conditions of new stock options not specifically addressed by the Option Exchange described in this proxy statement. Additionally, it is anticipated that new options will be qualified and/or non-qualified stock options depending upon the type of option exchanged.

Election to Participate

Eligible Option Holders will receive a tender offer document and will be able to voluntarily elect to participate in the Option Exchange. If you are both a stockholder and an Eligible Option Holder holding stock options that may be subject to the Option Exchange, please note that voting to approve the Option Exchange pursuant to this Proposal 1 does not constitute an election to participate in the Option Exchange. The written exchange offer documents described above will be provided if and when the Option Exchange is commenced, and you can only elect to participate after that time.

Impact of Option Exchange on Number of Options Issued

Our Compensation Committee approved exchange ratios that will result in the issuance of a lesser number of stock options through the Option Exchange than the number of stock options originally granted to Eligible Option Holders. The exchange ratios have been grouped together based on similar exercise prices. The following table illustrates the impact of the Option Exchange on the number of stock options outstanding as of April 1, 2021, assuming that 100% of Eligible Option Holders to participate as of April 1, 2021 exchange 100% of their eligible stock options in the Option Exchange.

	Outstanding Eligible Options			Exchange
	Number of	Weighted		Total New	Potential Net
	Existing Options	Average	Exchange	Options Granted	Shares
Exchange Price Range per Share	(shares)	Exercise Price ($)	Ratio	(shares)	Recaptured
$4.98	184,782	4.98	1.5 for 1	123,188	61,594
$5.01 - $5.34	124,500	5.18	1.2 for 1	103,750	20,750
$5.66 - $6.12	691,813	5.70	1.3 for 1	532,164	159,649
$6.40 - $6.79	52,500	6.47	1.2 for 1	43,750	8,750
$6.85	313,687	6.85	1.3 for 1	241,298	72,389
$6.90	25,000	6.90	1.2 for 1	20,833	4,167
$15.00	224,784	15.00	1.8 for 1	124,880	99,904

12

As described above under the section titled “Exchange Ratios,” the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of new stock options that a participating option holder will receive with respect to a surrendered stock option will be determined by dividing the number of shares surrendered by the applicable exchange ratio and rounding up to the nearest whole share.

Effect on Stockholders

Under the terms of the Option Exchange, the new stock options are meant to have a fair value that will be proportionate, on an aggregate basis, to the fair value of the cancelled stock options they would replace. While we cannot predict how many option holders will elect to participate in the Option Exchange, assuming that 100% of Eligible Option Holders as of April 1, 2021 participate in the Option Exchange, and based on the exchange ratios established by our Compensation Committee, eligible stock options to purchase approximately 1,617,066 shares of common stock may be surrendered and cancelled in the Option Exchange, which would result in the company issuing stock options for approximately 1,189,863 shares of common stock and would result in a net reduction in our stock option overhang of approximately 427,203 shares of common stock (or 1.1% of our issued and outstanding shares).

Accounting Impact

The incremental compensation expense associated with the Option Exchange will be measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of new stock option granted to participants in the Option Exchange, measured as of the date the new stock options are granted, over the fair value of the stock options surrendered in exchange for the new stock options, measured immediately prior to the cancellation. We do not expect the incremental compensation expense, if any, to be material. We will recognize any such incremental compensation expense ratably over the vesting period of the new stock options.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Option Exchange

The exchange of stock options pursuant to the Option Exchange should be treated as a non-taxable exchange because the new stock options will have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date. Neither the company nor the participants in the Option Exchange should recognize any income for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the grant of the new stock options. New stock options granted under the Option Exchange will be non-qualified stock options for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Tax effects may vary in other countries. A more detailed summary of tax considerations will be provided to all participants in the Option Exchange documents.

Financial Statements

Our financial statements and other information required by Item 13(a) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act are incorporated by reference from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2021 and amended on April 30, 2021.

Vote Required

Approval of the Option Exchange requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting by the holders of the shares represented in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote.

If you are both a stockholder and an eligible option holder holding eligible stock options, please note that voting to approve the Option Exchange does not constitute an election to participate in the Option Exchange.

Our Recommendation

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE STOCK OPTION EXCHANGE.

PROPOSAL 2: APPROVE THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Overview

On May 3, 2021, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with Innoviva, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to Innoviva, in the Private Placement, up to 10,000,000 newly issued Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price per share of $2.00. The Purchase Agreement provides for the sale of the Shares and Warrants to Innoviva in units, each consisting of one Share and one Warrant, for a per unit price of $2.00. The Warrants will be immediately exercisable upon issuance and expire five years from the date of issuance.

The Private Placement is occurring in two tranches. The First Closing and the First Placement occurred on May 3, 2021, at which time Innoviva purchased 3,731,025 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 3,731,025 shares of common stock, in exchange for an aggregate gross purchase price of approximately $7.5 million.

At the Second Closing and Second Placement, subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company's stockholders voting in favor of the issuance of securities in the Private Placement at this Special Meeting, Innoviva will purchase 6,268,975 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 6,268,975 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.5 million.

We are asking our stockholders to consider and vote on a proposal to approve the issuance of securities in the Second Placement, which, combined with the First Placement, would result in a sale of more than 20% of our outstanding stock at a discount to the “Minimum Price,” as defined under applicable Nasdaq rules as described below, on the date we entered into the Purchase Agreement. The approval of the Private Placement Proposal to be voted on at this Special Meeting is critical in order to fully execute the Company's financing transaction with Innoviva and to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility with respect to future issuances of equity.

Purchase Agreement and Private Placement

On May 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Innoviva, pursuant to which we agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to issue and sell to Innoviva, in a private placement under Nasdaq rules, up to 10,000,000 newly issued Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price per share of $2.00. Each Share and Warrant will be issued and sold to Innoviva as a unit, for a per unit price of $2.00. The Warrants will be immediately exercisable upon issuance and expire five years from the date of issuance.

The Private Placement is occurring in two tranches. The First Closing occurred on May 3, 2021 after the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. In connection with the First Closing, Entasis issued 3,731,025 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 3,731,025 shares of common stock (which was the maximum number of Shares and Warrants issuable to Innoviva without the requirement for the prior receipt of the stockholders' approval under the listing requirements of Nasdaq) in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $7.5 million.

At the Second Closing, subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company's stockholders voting in favor of the transaction at the Special Meeting, Innoviva will purchase 6,268,975 additional shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 6,268,975 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.5 million.

14

The Second Closing is expected to occur by the end of the second quarter of 2021, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions referenced above. Following the Second Closing, Innoviva will have beneficial ownership of approximately 75.5% of the Company, assuming no exercise of the Warrants, and if Innoviva exercises the Warrants in their entirety, it will own approximately 75.5% of the Company’s common stock (assuming the exercise of all warrants held by Innoviva).

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties as well as certain operating covenants applicable to the Company until the Second Closing.

Description of Warrants

The Warrants issued in the Private Placement are exercisable, in full or in part, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of their issuance, at an exercise price of $2.00 per share of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments in the event of future below market issuances, stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events set forth in the Warrants. The Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. In connection with a change in control transaction, any unexercised Warrants will remain outstanding. Warrant holders are entitled to participate in any dividend or other distribution by the Company to holders of shares of its common stock, on an as-exercised basis.

Registration Rights Agreement

On May 3,2021, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with Innoviva, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company must prepare and file with the SEC, a registration statement with respect to resales of the Shares and Warrants purchased by Innoviva under the Purchase Agreement within 30 days of the Special Meeting.

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement are only a summary and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, which are attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A and Annex B, respectively.

Why We Need Stockholder Approval

We are seeking stockholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by the Company of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price that is lower than the lower of (1) the closing price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (2) the average closing price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement (such lower number, the "Nasdaq Minimum Price"), which alone or together with sales by officers, directors or substantial stockholders of the Company, equals 20% or more of common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance. Even if securities are issued at a premium to the then current market price of our common stock, this rule will apply if the conversion price is subject to certain types of anti-dilution adjustments. The binding agreement means the Purchase Agreement. The closing of the Second Placement, together with the First Placement, will result in the issuance of shares equal to 20% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company for a price lower than the lower of the Nasdaq Minimum Price.

We are therefore seeking stockholder approval for the sale and issuance of the Shares to occur at the Second Closing and in connection with the Private Placement to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).

15

Dilution and Impact on Existing Stockholders

The issuance of the Shares and Warrants, if exercised, which are the subject of this proposal, would have a dilutive effect on current stockholders in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such current stockholders will decline as a result of the issuance. This means also that our existing stockholders, other than Innoviva, will own a smaller interest in the Company as a result of such issuance and therefore have less ability to influence significant corporate decisions requiring stockholder approval. Issuance of the Shares and Warrants pursuant to this proposal could also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for our common stock to decline.

Following the Second Closing, Innoviva will have beneficial ownership of approximately 75.5% of the Company’s common stock (assuming the exercise of all warrants held by Innoviva). As a result, Innoviva would be able to significantly influence our management and affairs and matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions, such as mergers, consolidations or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and may not act in the best interests of our other stockholders.

Consequences if Stockholder Approval is Not Obtained

If we do not obtain the requisite stockholder approval of the Private Placement Proposal at the Special Meeting, the Second Closing will not occur and Innoviva will still hold in the aggregate 22,403,922 shares of our common stock and 22,403,922 warrants, inclusive of the 3,731,025 shares of common stock and 3,731,025 Warrants that it purchased in the First Closing. Accordingly, we would be unable to complete the Second Closing and will not receive the additional gross proceeds of approximately $12.5 million from Innoviva as payment for the additional Shares and additional Warrants, and such funds will not be available to pursue the activities described below, substantially limiting our growth potential and we may be unable to continue as a going concern in the near term.

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the net proceeds for advancement of clinical and preclinical product candidates and for working capital and general corporate purposes. We may find it necessary or advisable to use the net proceeds for other purposes, and our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the Special Meeting will be required to approve the Private Placement Proposal.

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS
A VOTE "FOR" THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT PROPOSAL

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 1, 2021 by: (i) each of our Named Executive Officers; (ii) each of our directors (including nominees); (iii) all of our executive officers, directors and director nominees as a group; and (iv) each person or entity, or group of affiliated persons or entities, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding common stock.

16

Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based on information furnished to us by each director, executive officer or stockholder who holds more than 5% of our outstanding common stock, and Schedules 13G or 13D filed with the SEC, as the case may be. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC and generally means that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he or she possesses sole or shared voting or investment power of that security, and includes options and warrants that are currently exercisable within 60 days of April 1, 2021. Options to purchase shares of our common stock that are exercisable within 60 days of April 1, 2021, are deemed to be beneficially owned by the persons holding these options for the purpose of computing percentage ownership of that person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing any other person’s ownership percentage. Except as indicated in the footnotes below, each of the beneficial owners named in the table below has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock listed as beneficially owned by him or her, except for shares owned jointly with that person’s spouse.

We have based our calculation of beneficial ownership on 37,310,254 shares of our common stock outstanding as of April 1, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of the stockholders in the table below is c/o Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc., 35 Gatehouse Drive, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The Company has adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, beneficial shareholders who have the same address and last name and will receive only one copy of the Company’s Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Special Meeting materials unless one or more of these shareholders notifies the Company that they wish to continue receiving individual copies. This procedure is designed for convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Your consent to householding is perpetual unless you revoke it. You may revoke your consent at any time by contacting your broker or the Company (in writing or orally) to Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc., 35 Gatehouse Drive, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, Attn: Michael Gutch, Ph.D., Secretary, or contact Dr. Gutch at (781) 810-0120. You will be removed from the householding program, after which you will receive an individual copy of the proxy materials promptly.

Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.

(b)If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than 130% of (i) the Required Minimum on such date, minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to this Agreement, then the Board of Directors shall use reasonable best efforts to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time (minus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event not later than the 30th day after such date, provided that the Company will not be required at any time to authorize a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued after such time pursuant to this Agreement.

32

(c)Prior to the date hereof, the Company has filed with the Nasdaq Global Market a Listing of Additional Shares Notification under Listing Rule 5250(e)(2) (an “LAS Notification”) covering a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Required Minimum.  Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall take all steps necessary to cause such shares of Common Stock to be approved for listing or quotation on Nasdaq Global Market as soon as possible thereafter, and shall maintain the listing or quotation of a numbers of shares of Common Stock on any date equal to the Required Minimum on such date on the Nasdaq Global Market.  The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

(a)Shelf Registration. No later than ninety (90) days after the date hereof, the Company shall file a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration covering the resale of the Registrable Securities with the SEC for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415, or if Rule 415 is not available for offers and sales of the Registrable Securities, by such other means of distribution of Registrable Securities as the Holder may reasonably specify (the “Initial Registration Statement”).

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including any applicable Suspension Period, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event (x) no later than the fifteenth (15th) day following the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement in the event of no “review” by the Commission, (y) no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement in the event of “limited review” by the Commission, or (z) in the event of a “full review” by the Commission, the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day following the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement (the number of days in (x), (y) and (z) each being a “Review Period,” depending on the nature of the Commission’s review, and provided, for any days during the period following the initial filing of the Shelf Registration Statement and prior to the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement that the Commission is unable to review or declare effective registration statements filed with the Commission due to a shutdown or partial shutdown of the U.S. government (such days, “Tolled Days”), the applicable number of days in such Review Period shall be extended by the number of Tolled Days), and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are no longer Registrable Securities, including (the period during which the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act in accordance with this clause (i), the “Shelf Period”). The Company shall notify the Holder by e-mail with electronic confirmation of the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement as promptly as practicable, and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours, after the Company telephonically or otherwise confirms effectiveness with the Commission. The Company shall file a final Prospectus with the Commission to the extent required by Rule 424. The “Plan of Distribution” section of such Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for all permitted means of disposition of Registrable Securities, including firm-commitment underwritten public offerings, agented transactions, sales directly into the market, purchases or sales by brokers and sales not involving a public offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (A) inform the Holder, (B) file amendments to the Initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (C)

5

withdraw the Initial Registration Statement and file a new Registration Statement (a “New Registration Statement”), in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-3 or, if the Company is ineligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall be obligated to use its reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities. In the event the Company amends the Initial Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (B) or (C) above, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by the Commission, one or more Registration Statements on Form S-3 or, if the Company is ineligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Initial Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement (the “Remainder Registration Statements”).

(b)Suspension Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defer the filing of (but not the preparation of), or suspend the use by the Holder of, any Registration Statement for the shortest period possible, in no event to exceed thirty (30) days (i) upon issuance by the Commission of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement with respect to Registrable Securities or the initiation of proceedings with respect to such Registration Statement under Section 9(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act; or (ii) if the Company believes in good faith that any such registration or offering would require the Company (after consultation with external legal counsel), under applicable securities laws and other laws, to make disclosure of material nonpublic information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed at that time that would be materially adverse to the Company (any such period, a “Suspension Period”); provided, that in no event shall the Company declare Suspension Periods lasting more than 60 days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period. The Company shall (i) give prompt written notice to the Holder of its declaration of a Suspension Period and of the expiration or termination of the relevant Suspension Period and (ii) promptly resume the process of filing or requesting for effectiveness, or update the suspended Registration Statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to permit the Holder to offer and sell its Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law.

(c)Required Information. The Company may require the Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any Registration Statement is being filed or sale is being effected to furnish to the Company such information regarding the intended method of distribution of such securities and such other information relating to the Holder and its ownership of Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing (provided that such information shall be used only in connection with such registration). The Holder agrees to furnish such information to the Company and to cooperate with the Company as reasonably necessary to enable the Company to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.

(d)Cessation of Registration Rights. All registration rights granted under this Section 2 shall continue to be applicable with respect to the Holder until the Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities.

4.Registration Expenses. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification, exemption or compliance pursuant to Section 2.1(a) hereof shall be borne by the Company.

5.Indemnification.

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its partners, stockholders, equity holders, general partners, managers,

10

members and Affiliates and each of their respective officers and directors and any Person who controls the Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and any employee or Representative thereof (each, a “Company Indemnified Person” and collectively, “Company Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, costs (including reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees) and expenses, judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Company Indemnified Person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of, based upon, resulting from or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which any Registrable Securities were registered, Prospectus (including in any preliminary prospectus (if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement)), or in any summary or final prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation in connection with such Registration Statement, disclosure document or related document or report or any offering covered by such Registration Statement, and the Company shall reimburse such Company Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss, claim, damage, liability, demand, action, suit or proceeding (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Company Violations”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 5(a): (A) shall not apply to a Loss by a Company Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Company Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder or such Company Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement, such preliminary, summary or final prospectus or such amendment or supplement, or other disclosure document; (B) with respect to any superseded prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person from whom the person asserting any such Loss purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any other Company Indemnified Person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the superseded prospectus was corrected in the revised prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such revised prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(f), and the Company Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a violation; (C) shall not be available to the extent such Loss is based on a failure of the Holder to deliver, or to cause to be delivered, the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was theretofore made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(f); and (D) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Loss if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

11

(b)In connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof in which the Holder has registered for sale its Registrable Securities, the Holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers, employees, agents and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) (collectively, “Holder Indemnified Persons,” and together with the Company Indemnified Persons, each an “Indemnified Person,” and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any Losses resulting from (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered or sold under the Securities Act, Prospectus (including in any preliminary prospectus (if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement)), or in any summary or final prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any documents incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Holder of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation relating to action or inaction in connection with any information provided by the Holder in such registration, disclosure document or related document or report in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with any information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Holder specifically for inclusion in such registration, disclosure document or related document or report and has not been corrected in a subsequent writing prior to the sale of the Registrable Securities thereunder, and the Holder will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending such Losses. In no event shall the liability of the Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by the Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c)Any Indemnified Person under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5 shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying person under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5 of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying person shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent, if at all, that the indemnifying person’s ability to defend such claim (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit such indemnifying person to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; provided, however, that any Indemnified Person shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (A) the indemnifying person has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the Indemnified Person has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Persons that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying person, or (C) in the reasonable judgment of any such Indemnified Person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Person and the indemnifying person with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Indemnified Person notifies the indemnifying person in writing that such Indemnified Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying person, the indemnifying

12

person shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Indemnified Person). If any action is settled or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment. No action may be settled without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, provided that the consent of the Indemnified Person shall not be required if (x) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such settlement; (y) such settlement provides solely for the payment by the indemnifying person of money as the sole relief for such action and (z) such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. It is understood that the indemnifying person or persons shall not, except as specifically set forth in this Section 5(c), in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements or other charges of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel that is required to effectively defend against any such proceeding) for all Indemnified Persons and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed promptly.

(d)If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of a competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Person with respect to any loss, damage, claim or liability, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, damage, claim or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Person on the other in connection with the actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying person and of the Indemnified Person shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying person or Indemnified Person and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding sentences. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), the Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by the Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e)The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section 5 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and the termination of this Agreement.

6.Facilitation of Sales Pursuant to Rule 144. The Company shall timely file the

13

reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act and the rules adopted by the Commission thereunder (including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144. Upon the written request of the Holder in connection with that Holder’s sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

7.Registration Rights Covenant. The Company covenants that it will not, and it will cause its Subsidiaries not to, grant any right of registration under the Securities Act to any Person other than pursuant to this Agreement, unless the rights so granted to another Person do not limit or restrict the rights of the Holder hereunder.

8.Miscellaneous.

(a)Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or the Holder of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any Party, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Parties agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by the Company of any of the provisions of this Agreement and further agree that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, the Company shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and shall waive any requirement for the posting of a bond. No failure or delay by any Person in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(b)Amendment; Modification; Waivers. This Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by the Company and the Holder, which writing shall specifically reference this Agreement, specify the provision(s) hereof that it is intended to amend or waive and further specify that it is intended to amend or waive such provision(s).

(c)Notices. All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent via electronic mail (with confirmation), mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or delivered by an express courier (with confirmation) to the Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as may be specified by like notice):

(d)Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws. In any action or proceeding between any of the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each of the parties: (a) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Delaware Chancery Court or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court sitting in the State of Delaware; (b)

15

agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 7(d); (c) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts; (d) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any party hereto; and (e) irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to trial by jury.

(e)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. The Holder may not assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company.

(f)Waiver of Venue. The Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in Section 7(d) and (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(g)Waiver of Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PERSON HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PERSON MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) SUCH PERSON UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) SUCH PERSON MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) SUCH PERSON HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH ANCILLARY AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

(h)Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (i) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (ii) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction; provided, that, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be determined to be excessively broad as to activity, subject, duration or geographic scope, it shall be reformed by limiting and reducing it to the minimum extent necessary, so as to be enforceable under

16

applicable law.

(i)Business Days. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a day other than a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

(j)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous discussions, agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)Execution of Agreement. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (by facsimile, by electronic mail in Adobe Portable Document Format (.pdf) or otherwise) in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same agreement.

(l)Determination of Ownership. In determining ownership of Company Common Stock hereunder for any purpose, the Company may rely solely on the records of the transfer agent for the Company Common Stock from time to time, or, if no such transfer agent exists, the Company’s stock ledger.

(m)No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, each Party covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no recourse under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be had against any of the Company’s or the Holder’s former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, financing sources, managers, general or limited partners or assignees (each, a “Related Person” and collectively, the “Related Persons”), in each case other than the Company, the Holder or any of their respective permitted assigns under this Agreement, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any of the Related Persons, as such, for any obligation or liability of the Company or the Holder under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or liabilities or their creation; provided, however, nothing in this Section 7(m) shall relieve or otherwise limit the liability of the Company or the Holder, as such, for any breach or violation of its obligations under this Agreement or such agreements, documents or instruments. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Parties will have any recourse, be entitled to commence any proceeding or make any claim under this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby except against any of the Parties or their respective successors and permitted assigns, as applicable.

(n)Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than a Party and its successors and permitted assigns any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever.
