approximately $ . We have agreed to reimburse the underwriters for expenses
relating to the clearance of this offering with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and the qualification of the ADSs under blue sky laws in an amount not to exceed $15,000.
A prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the web sites maintained by one or more underwriters, or
selling group members, if any, participating in the offering. The underwriters may agree to allocate a number of ADSs to underwriters and selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be
allocated by the representatives to underwriters and selling group members that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.
We and members of our senior management, our directors, and certain of our significant shareholders, have agreed with the underwriters, subject to limited
exceptions, not to, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, or otherwise dispose of or hedge any of our equity securities, or any options or warrants to purchase our equity
securities, or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive, our equity securities, or publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing, without the prior written consent of the
representatives of the underwriters for a period of 90 days from the date of the final prospectus supplement, whether owned as of the date of the lock-up agreement or thereafter acquired.
We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Our ADSs are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol AUTL.
In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, which involves making bids for, purchasing and selling ADSs in the
open market for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the ADS while this offering is in progress. These stabilizing transactions may include making short sales of the ADS, which involves the sale by the underwriters
of a greater number of ADSs than they are required to purchase in this offering, and purchasing ADSs on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales may be covered shorts, which are short positions in an amount
not greater than the underwriters option to purchase additional ADSs referred to above, or may be naked shorts, which are short positions in excess of that amount. The underwriters may close out any covered short position either by
exercising their option to purchase additional ADSs, in whole or in part, or by purchasing ADSs in the open market. In making this determination, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of ADSs available for purchase in the
open market compared to the price at which the underwriters may purchase ADSs through the option to purchase additional ADSs. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure
on the price of the ADS in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. To the extent that the underwriters create a naked short position, they will purchase ADSs in the open market to cover the position.
The underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M of the Securities Act, they may also engage in other activities that stabilize, maintain or
otherwise affect the price of the ADS, including the imposition of penalty bids. This means that if the representatives of the underwriters purchase ADSs in the open market in stabilizing transactions or to cover short sales, the representatives can
require the underwriters that sold those ADSs as part of this offering to repay the underwriting discount received by them.
These activities may have the
effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the ADS or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the ADS, and, as a result, the price of the ADS may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If
the underwriters commence these activities, they may discontinue them at any time. The underwriters may carry out these transactions on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, in the
over-the-counter market or otherwise.
