ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

 

This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, using a “shelf” registration process. The selling stockholder may resell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus. Information about the selling stockholder may change over time. When the selling stockholder sells shares of our common stock under this prospectus, we will, if necessary and required by law, provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. Any prospectus supplement may also add to, update, modify or replace information contained in this prospectus. If a prospectus supplement is provided and the description of the offering in the prospectus supplement varies from the information in this prospectus, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement. You should carefully read this prospectus and the accompanying prospectus supplement, if any, along with all of the information incorporated by reference herein and therein, before making an investment decision.

If anyone provides you with different or additional information, you should not rely on it. This prospectus is not an offer to sell, nor is the selling stockholder seeking an offer to buy, the shares offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. No offers or sales of any of the shares of our common stock are to be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information contained in this prospectus or in any applicable prospectus supplement is accurate only as of the date on the front cover thereof or the date of the document incorporated by reference, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement or any sales of the shares of our common stock offered hereby or thereby.

Neither the delivery of this prospectus or any prospectus supplement or any issuer free writing prospectus nor any sale made hereunder shall under any circumstances imply that the information contained or incorporated by reference herein or in any prospectus supplement or issuer free writing prospectus is correct as of any date subsequent to the date hereof or of such prospectus supplement or issuer free writing prospectus, as applicable. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any document incorporated by reference herein or therein is accurate only as of the date of the applicable documents, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of securities.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary provides an overview of selected information contained elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should carefully read the prospectus, the information incorporated by reference and the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in their entirety before investing in our securities, including the information discussed under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference and our financial statements and related notes that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus. As used in this prospectus, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” or “the Company” refer to InspireMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

 

Our Business

 

We are a medical device company focusing on the development and commercialization of our proprietary MicroNet™ stent platform technology for the treatment of complex vascular and coronary disease. A stent is an expandable “scaffold-like” device, usually constructed of a metallic material, that is inserted into an artery to expand the inside passage and improve blood flow. Our MicroNet, a micron mesh sleeve, is wrapped over a stent to provide embolic protection in stenting procedures.

 

Our CGuard™ carotid embolic prevention system (“CGuard EPS”) combines MicroNet and a self-expandable nitinol stent in a single device for use in carotid artery applications. Our CGuard EPS received CE mark approval in the European Union in March 2013 and was fully launched in Europe in September 2015. Subsequently, we launched CGuard EPS in Russia and certain countries in Latin America and Asia, including India. In September 2020, we launched CGuard EPS in Brazil after receiving regulatory approval in July 2020 and, as discussed below, on February 3, 2021 we executed a distribution agreement with Chinese partners for the purpose of expanding our presence in China. Currently, we are seeking strategic partners for a potential launch of CGuard EPS in Japan.

 

On September 8, 2020, we received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) of our Investigation Device Exemption (“IDE”), thereby allowing us to proceed with a pivotal study of our CGuard™ Carotid Stent System, CARENET-III, for prevention of stroke in patients in the United States. CARENET-lll is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, pivotal study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CGuard™ Carotid Stent System when used to treat symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis in patients undergoing carotid artery stenting. The trial will enroll approximately 315 subjects in a maximum of 40 study sites located in the United States. Additional sites in Europe may also participate in the study, contributing a maximum of ~50% of the total enrollees. The primary endpoint of the study will be the composite of the following: incidence of the following major adverse events: death (all- cause mortality), all stroke, and myocardial infarction (DSMI) through 30-days post-index procedure, based on the clinical events committee (CEC) adjudication or ipsilateral stroke from 31-365 day follow-up, based on Clinical Events Committee (CEC) adjudication.

 

Additionally, we intend to continue to invest in current and future potential product and manufacturing enhancements for CGuard EPS that are expected to reduce cost of goods and/or provide the best-in-class performing delivery system. In furtherance of our strategy that focuses on establishing CGuard EPS as a viable alternative to vascular surgery, we are exploring adding new delivery systems and accessory solutions for procedural protection to our portfolio.

 

We consider the addressable market for our CGuard EPS to be individuals with diagnosed, symptomatic high-grade carotid artery stenosis (HGCS, ≥70% occlusion) for whom intervention is preferable to medical (drug) therapy. This group includes not only carotid artery stenting patients but also individuals undergoing carotid endarterectomy, as the two approaches compete for the same patient population. Assuming full penetration of the intervention caseload by CGuard EPS, we estimate that the addressable market for CGuard EPS was approximately $1.0 billion in 2017 (source: Health Research International 2017 Results of Update Report on Global Carotid Stenting Procedures and Markets by Major Geography and Addressable Markets).

 

Our MGuard™ Prime™ embolic protection system (“MGuard Prime EPS”) is marketed for use in patients with acute coronary syndromes, notably acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) and saphenous vein graft coronary interventions (bypass surgery). MGuard Prime EPS combines MicroNet with a bare-metal cobalt-chromium based stent. MGuard Prime EPS received CE mark approval in the European Union in October 2010 for improving luminal diameter and providing embolic protection. However, as a result of a shift in industry preferences away from bare-metal stents in favor of drug-eluting (drug-coated) stents, in 2014 we decided to curtail further development of this product in order to focus on the development of a drug-eluting stent product, MGuard DES™. Due to limited resources, however, our efforts have been limited to testing drug-eluting stents manufactured by potential partners for compatibility with MicroNet and seeking to incorporate MicroNet onto a drug-eluting stent manufactured by a potential partner. The FDA has clarified that the primary mode of action for drug-eluting cardiovascular stents, which are regulated as combination products, is that of the device component and has assigned the FDA Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) primary responsibility for premarket review and regulation, providing some clarity about what to expect regarding the regulatory framework related to the development of MGuard DES™.

We also intend to develop a pipeline of other products and additional applications by leveraging our MicroNet technology to new applications to improve peripheral vascular and neurovascular procedures, such as the treatment of the superficial femoral artery disease, vascular disease below the knee and neurovascular stenting to seal aneurysms in the brain.

 

Presently, none of our products may be sold or marketed in the United States.

 

Recent Developments

 

Public Offering

 

On February 8, 2021, we closed an underwritten public offering of 29,032,258 units, with each such unit being comprised of one share of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and one Series G Warrant to purchase one-half of one share of our common stock. The offering price to the public was $0.62 per unit. The Series G Warrants were immediately exercisable at a price of $0.682 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, and expire five years from the date of issuance. We also granted the underwriter of the offering an option to purchase an additional 4,354,838 shares of our common stock and Series G Warrants to purchase 2,177,419 shares of our common stock, which the underwriter exercised in full. In connection with the offering we granted to the underwriter a compensation warrant to purchase up to 1,669,355 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $0.682 per share and which are exercisable for five years from February 3, 2021. Our net proceeds from the offering, after giving effect to the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, were approximately $18.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and payment of other expenses associated with the offering, but excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of Series G Warrants sold in the offering.

 

Distribution and Purchase Agreement with Chinese Partners

 

On February 3, 2021, we entered into a Distribution Agreement with three China-based partners, pursuant to which the Chinese partners will be responsible for conducting the necessary registration trials for commercial approval of our products in China, followed by an eight-year exclusive distribution right to sell our products in China with the term of the agreement continuing on a year-to-year basis unless terminated. Under the Distribution Agreement, the China-based partners will be subject to minimum purchase obligations. The Distribution Agreement may be terminated for cause upon failure to meet minimum purchase obligations, failure to obtain regulatory approvals or for other material breaches.

 

In addition, and on the same day, we entered into an investment transaction with QIDI, which included (i) a securities purchase agreement, or SPA, pursuant to which QIDI Asia Medical Limited, a Hong Kong limited company, or QIDI, agreed to invest $900,000 in exchange for shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.6708 per share, and (ii) an investor rights agreement, or IRA, whereby QIDI was provided certain customary registration rights, including a commitment by us to file a registration statement with the SEC on Form S-1 or Form S-3 and have such registration statement become effective not later than 150 days following the closing of the transactions under the SPA.

 

The transactions closed on February 5, 2021.

ATM Offering

 

On July 28, 2020, we entered into a Sales Agreement with A.G.P. pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, at our option, through or to A.G.P., up to an aggregate of approximately $9,300,000 of shares of our common stock (the “ATM Facility”). On January 11, 2021, we increased the aggregate amount of shares of our common stock that may be sold under the Sales Agreement from $9,300,000 to $10,382,954, and, as a result, utilized and sold the maximum amount allowable under the ATM Facility, which resulted in an aggregate amount of $10,381,958.

 

COVID-19 Developments

 

In an effort to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19, which the World Health Organization, or WHO, declared to be a pandemic on March 12, 2020, many countries have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, quarantines and other public health safety measures. As of the beginning of the second quarter of 2020, we began to experience a significant COVID-19 related impact on our financial condition and results of operations, which we primarily attribute to the postponement of CGuard EPS procedures (non-emergency procedures), as hospitals shifted resources to patients affected by COVID-19. To our knowledge, most European countries in which we operate are slowly reinstating elective procedures, but we do not know when the hospitals will resume to normal pre-pandemic levels with such procedures in light of recent increases in COVID-19 cases in the territories we sell into. We anticipate that the continuation of the pandemic and related restrictions and safety measures would likely result in continued fluctuations in sales of our products for the upcoming periods. For more discussion on our risks related to COVID-19, please see risk factors included under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” herein.

 

In response to significant market volatility and uncertainties relating to COVID-19, the fees and salaries of our Board, management and most of our employees were reduced in order to alleviate corporate operating expenses.

 

Effective April 1, 2020, the Board approved a 50% decrease in the annual cash compensation for non-employee directors from an aggregate amount of $154,000 to $77,000. Effective as of the same date, we reduced the annual salaries of most of our employees by 20% to 30% until further notice.

 

On April 21, 2020, Marvin Slosman, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Craig Shore, our Chief Financial Officer, Chief Administrative Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, each signed waivers reducing their monthly base salaries for the period beginning April 1, 2020 and which, pursuant to their independent determinations, ended on June 1, 2020. Each of the salaries for the remaining officers, directors and employees was similarly reinstated by no later than June 30, 2020.

 

As a result of the reduction of those fees and salaries during the second quarter of 2020, our operating expenses were reduced by approximately $235,000 in the second quarter of 2020.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves certain risks. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk set forth below, as well as the risks described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any updates to those risks in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, together with all of the other information appearing in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. The risks so described are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and could result in a loss of all or part of your investment. In any case, the value of the securities offered by means of this prospectus could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, including resale of the shares issued to the selling stockholder, could adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common stock.

 

We are registering for resale 1,341,682 shares of our common stock that we have issued to the selling stockholder pursuant to the SPA. Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock, and the market value of our other securities. We cannot predict if and when the selling stockholder may sell such shares in the public markets. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional shares of our common stock or other equity or debt securities exercisable for, or convertible into, shares of our common stock. Any such issuances could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

 

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain “forward-looking statements,” which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulation. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will probably not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

 

  the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our manufacturing, sales, business plan and the global economy;
     
  negative clinical trial results or lengthy product delays in key markets;
     
  our ability to maintain compliance with the NYSE American listing standards;
     
  our ability to generate revenues from our products and obtain and maintain regulatory approvals for our products;
     
  our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property;
     
  our dependence on a single manufacturing facility and our ability to comply with stringent manufacturing quality standards and to increase production as necessary;

 

5

 

 

  the risk that the data collected from our current and planned clinical trials may not be sufficient to demonstrate that our technology is an attractive alternative to other procedures and products;
     
  market acceptance of our products;
     
  our need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future and such capital raising may be costly or difficult to obtain and could dilute out stockholders’ ownership interests;
     
  intense competition in our industry, with competitors having substantially greater financial, technological, research and development, regulatory and clinical, manufacturing, marketing and sales, distribution and personnel resources than we do;
     
  entry of new competitors and products and potential technological obsolescence of our products;
     
  inability to carry out research, development and commercialization plans;
     
  loss of a key customer or supplier;
     
  technical problems with our research and products and potential product liability claims;
     
  product malfunctions;
     
  price increases for supplies and components;
     
  adverse economic conditions;
     
  insufficient or inadequate reimbursement by governmental and other third-party payers for our products;
     
  our efforts to successfully obtain and maintain intellectual property protection covering our products, which may not be successful;
     
  adverse federal, state and local government regulation, in the United States, Europe or Israel and other foreign jurisdictions;
     
  the fact that we conduct business in multiple foreign jurisdictions, exposing us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, logistical and communications challenges, burdens and costs of compliance with foreign laws and political and economic instability in each jurisdiction;
     
  the escalation of hostilities in Israel, which could impair our ability to manufacture our products; and
     
  loss or retirement of key executives and research scientists.

 

The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with that may cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of these and other risks that relate to our business and investing in shares of our common stock. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which any such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

Background Regarding the Selling Stockholder

 

On February 5, 2021, we issued 1,341,682 shares of our common stock to the selling stockholder in a private placement, exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, pursuant to the SPA.

 

Under the terms of the SPA and the IRA, each executed concurrently with the selling stockholder, we agreed, among other things:

 

  (i) to issue to the selling stockholder 1,341,682 shares of our common stock; and
     
  (ii) to file a registration statement with the SEC under the Securities Act in order to register the resale of the shares of our common stock issued pursuant to the SPA and to have that registration statement declared effective within one hundred and fifty (150) days of the signing of the SPA.

Information About Selling Stockholder Offering

 

The following table sets forth the number and percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder as of March 25, 2021, taking into account number of shares that may be offered under this prospectus and the number and percentage of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder assuming all of the shares offered under this prospectus are sold. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to shares of our common stock. Generally, a person “beneficially owns” shares of our common stock if the person has or shares with others the right to vote those shares or to dispose of them, or if the person has the right to acquire voting or disposition rights within 60 days.

 

All information contained in the table below and the footnotes thereto is based upon information provided to us by the selling stockholder. The information in the table below and the footnotes thereto regarding shares of our common stock to be beneficially owned after the offering under this prospectus assumes the sale of all shares of our common stock being offered by the selling stockholder under this prospectus. The percentage of shares of our common stock owned prior to and after the offering under this prospectus is based on 117,791,865 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 25, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, we believe that the selling stockholder has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of our common stock indicated as beneficially owned.

 

Except as described above, neither the selling stockholder nor any of its affiliates, officers, directors or principal equity holders have held any position or office or had any other material relationship with us or our affiliates within the past three years.

 

As used in this prospectus, the term “selling stockholder” includes the selling stockholder named below and any donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of our common stock received after the date of this prospectus from the selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, or other non-sale related transfer.

 

The number of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares Offered” represents all of the shares of our common stock that the selling stockholder may offer under this prospectus. The fourth column assumes the sale of all the shares of our common stock offered by the selling stockholder under this prospectus and that the selling stockholder does not acquire any additional shares of our common stock before the completion of the offering under this prospectus. However, because the selling stockholder may sell all or some of the shares offered under this prospectus from time to time, or in another permitted manner, we cannot assure you as to the actual number of shares of our common stock that will be sold by the selling stockholder or that will be held by the selling stockholder after completion of any sales. The selling stockholder may sell some, all or none of the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus. We do not know how long the selling stockholder will hold the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling stockholder regarding the sale of any of the shares of our common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholder, including its pledgees, donees, transferees, distributees, beneficiaries or other successors in interest, may from time to time offer some or all of the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus by the selling stockholder. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus.

 

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

 

The selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares of our common stock or interests therein:

 

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell shares of our common stock as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
  an over-the-counter distribution;
  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
  privately negotiated transactions;
  short sales effected after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part;
  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
  broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
  a combination of any such methods of sale; or
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholder may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of our common stock owned by it and, if it defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of our common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of the selling stockholder to include the pledgee, transferee, or other successors in interest as selling stockholder under this prospectus. The selling stockholder also may transfer the shares of our common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

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

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

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholder from the sale of the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus will be the purchase price of the shares of common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares of our common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the offering under this prospectus.

 

The selling stockholder also may resell all or a portion of the shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that it meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

The selling stockholder and any other person participating in a sale of shares of our common stock registered under this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of our common stock by the selling stockholder and any other participating person. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of our common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of our common stock. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholder may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares of our common stock against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides, in general, that a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, as we are, may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. In the case of a derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.

 

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent and in the manner permitted by the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended from time to time, subject to any permissible expansion or limitation of such indemnification, as may be set forth in any stockholders’ or directors’ resolution or by contract. Any repeal or modification of these provisions approved by our stockholders will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation on the liability of any of our directors or officers existing as of the time of such repeal or modification.

 

We are also permitted to apply for insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or other agent for liability arising out of his or her actions, whether or not the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware would permit indemnification.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

  (a) (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
     
      (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
     
      (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
     
      (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  II-3  
 

 

  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
     
  (4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

  (i) If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

 

  (A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
     
  (B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however , that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

  (ii) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

  (5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

    (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
       
    (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

  II-4  
 

 

  (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
     
  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
