Overview of the Company

We are an interventional oncology company focused on the treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancers. Our lead product candidate, the HEPZATO KIT (melphalan hydrochloride for injection/hepatic delivery system), or HEPZATO, is a drug/device combination product. HEPZATO is designed to administer high-dose chemotherapy to the liver while controlling systemic exposure and associated side effects. HEPZATO has not been approved for sale in the United States. In Europe, our commercial product is a stand-alone medical device having the same device components as the HEPZATO KIT but without the melphalan hydrochloride. The device is approved for sale under the trade name CHEMOSAT® Hepatic Delivery System for Melphalan, or CHEMOSAT, where it has been used at major medical centers to treat a wide range of cancers of the liver.

In the United States, HEPZATO is regulated as a combination drug and device by the United States Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA. Primary jurisdiction for regulation of HEPZATO has been assigned to the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. The FDA has granted the active moiety melphalan hydrochloride five orphan drug designations for the treatment of patients with ocular (uveal) melanoma, cutaneous melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and neuroendocrine tumors. The FDA has granted the active moiety doxorubicin one orphan drug designation for the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. In Europe, CHEMOSAT is regulated as a Class IIb medical device and received its CE Mark in 2012. We are commercializing CHEMOSAT in select markets in the United Kingdom and the European Union, or the EU, where we believe the prospect of securing reimbursement coverage for the use of CHEMOSAT is strongest.

Our most advanced development program is for the use of HEPZATO in the treatment of ocular melanoma liver metastases, or mOM, a type of primary liver cancer. HEPZATO is being studied in the FOCUS Clinical Trial for Patients with Hepatic Dominant Ocular Melanoma, or the FOCUS Trial, which is a global registration clinical trial that is investigating objective response rate in mOM. The FOCUS Trial is being conducted at approximately 30 sites in the United States and Europe. The FOCUS Trial initiated treatment on the final enrolled patient on October 2, 2020. The primary endpoint of the FOCUS Trial is Objective Response Rate, or ORR, as measured by RECISTv1.1, in the Intent to Treat (ITT) population. The single arm trial was powered to demonstrate a superior ORR versus checkpoint inhibitors, one of the few mOM treatment categories with a significant amount of peer reviewed publications. The checkpoint inhibitor ORR was calculated based on a meta-analysis covering 16 different publications which included 476 patients. The pooled overall response rate was 5.5% [95% CI: 3.6, 8.3]. To achieve statistical significance at a 95% Confidence Interval, the lower bound of the ORR for HEPZATO is required to exceed the 8.3% upper bound of the meta-analysis. Secondary endpoints include Duration of Response, or DOR, Disease Control Rate, or DCR, Overall Survival, or OS, and Progression-Free Survival, or PFS. Additional exploratory outcome measures include time to objective response, hepatic progression-free survival, hepatic objective response, and quality of life, safety, and other pharmacokinetic measures. Initially, the trial was a randomized controlled trial which was amended to a single arm trial given slow enrollment due to the rarity of ocular melanoma, absence of crossover to the experimental trial arm, competing clinical trials and the commercial availability of CHEMOSAT in Europe. Included in the pre-specified analyses are comparisons against the Best Alternative Care, or BAC, arm which enrolled 32 patients prior to the amendment to a single-arm trial.

Table of Contents

We have paused a global Phase 3 clinical trial of HEPZATO in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, or the ALIGN Trial, due to difficulties in enrollment. In addition to the FOCUS Trial and the ALIGN Trial, our commercial development plan also includes a registry for CHEMOSAT cases performed in Europe and support of select investigator-initiated trials, or IITs.

We are currently reviewing the incidence, unmet need, available efficacy data and development requirements for a broad set of liver cancers in order to select a portfolio of indications which will maximize the value of the HEPZATO platform. This may result in a restart of the ALIGN Trial. We believe that the disease states we are investigating and intend to investigate are unmet medical needs that represent significant market opportunities.

Recent Developments

The Focus Trial Preliminary Analysis. On March 31, 2021, Delcath released a preliminary analysis of the FOCUS trial data based on 87% of enrolled patients using prespecified analyses. An Independent Review Committee assessed an ORR of 29.2% [95% CI: 20.1, 39.8] in the ITT population, the lower bound of which exceeded the upper bound of the predefined success criteria (8.3%) for the primary ORR endpoint. In the per protocol populations, evaluable patients in the HEPZATO arm had a statistically significant improvement over BAC in prespecified endpoints including: ORR of 32.9% [95% CI: 22.8, 44.4] versus 13.8% [CI: 3.9, 31.7] for the BAC arm (Chi-square P<0.05), Median PFS of 9.0 months [95% CI: 6.2, 11.8] versus 3.1 months ([95% CI: 2.7, 5.7] for the BAC arm (HR=0.41 p<0.001), and DCR of 70.9% [95% CI: 59.6, 80.6] versus 37.9% [95% CI: 20.7, 57.7] for the BAC arm (p<0.002). In this preliminary analysis, DOR and OS were not yet evaluable. Since not all patients were evaluable for all time points, these preliminary analyses may change as data matures.

In the HEPZATO safety population of 94 patients, 38 patients (40.4%) experienced a treatment-emergent serious adverse event. The most commonly reported treatment-emergent serious adverse events were thrombocytopenia (14.9% of patients), neutropenia (10.6% of patients), and leukopenia (4.2% of patients), which were well-manageable. 5% of patients experienced treatment-emergent serious cardiac adverse events. In all cases the events resolved with no ongoing complications. There were no treatment-related deaths in the trial.

Impact of COVID-19. The global outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, a novel strain of coronavirus that causes coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), has adversely impacted certain areas of the Company’s business. These impacts included a slowing of patient recruitment in the FOCUS Trial and a reduction in the pace at which we can monitor data at our clinical trial sites. The resulting delay in completing enrollment and additional time required to monitor data caused our announcement for the top-line data from our FOCUS Trial to shift to early 2021 and to be modified to a preliminary analysis. We intend to submit a New Drug Application (“NDA”) to the FDA in the first quarter of 2022 for the treatment of mOM once the FOCUS Trial has been completed. The ability to achieve this goal is contingent on our ability to monitor data at our clinical sites and, therefore, the timeline may shift as access to the clinical sites changes in response to the rapidly evolving situation. COVID-19 has also caused us to experience an increase in volatility in EU commercial product revenue. The results of the FOCUS Trial should also support securing reimbursement coverage for the use of CHEMOSAT in Europe. Additional impacts of COVID-19 on our business may arise that we are not aware of currently. The ultimate impact of the pandemic on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity, or capital resources cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Medical Device Directive Transition to Medical Device Regulation. The European Commission recently reviewed the Medical Device Directive legislative framework and promulgated REGULATION (EU) 2017/745 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 5 April 2017 on medical devices, amending Directive 2001/83/EC, Regulation EC) No 178/2002 and Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and repealing Council Directives 90/385/EEC and 93/42/EEC. This new Medical Device Regulation became effective on May 25, 2017, marking the start of a 3-year transition period for manufacturers selling medical devices in Europe to comply with the new medical device regulation, or MDR, which governs all facets of medical devices. The transition task is highly complex and touches every aspect of product development, manufacturing production, distribution, and post marketing evaluation. As a result of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, on April 17, 2020, the European

Table of Contents

Parliament adopted the European Commission’s proposal to postpone the implementation of the MDR (EU) 2017/745 by 12 months. This urgently drafted proposal to delay the MDR is in response to the exceptional circumstances associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential impact it may have had on the MDR implementation. The new Date of Application (DoA) for the MDR was May 26, 2021.

Effectively addressing these changes will require a complete review of our device operations to determine what is necessary to comply. We do not believe the MDR regulatory changes will impact our business at this time, though implementation of the medical device legislation may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations or restrict our operations.

Due to COVID-related delays experienced by the medical device industry and Notified Bodies (NB) alike, Delcath has not yet achieved MDR certification. However, our current CE Mark under the Medical Device Directive remains effective until April 2024 and allows us to fully operate, in Europe, accordingly, as Delcath and our Notified Body work closely together through the certification process.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSACTIONS

Term Loan from Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P.

On August 6, 2021, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and Supplement to Loan and Security Agreement (together, the “Loan Agreement”) with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P. (the “Lender,” or “Avenue Capital”) for a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000,000 (the “Loan”). The Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the sum of 7.70% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal and (b) 10.95%. The Loan is secured by a security interest in all of the Company’s assets. The Loan maturity date is August 1, 2024.

At closing, the Lender funded the initial $15,000,000 tranche of the Loan (“Tranche 1”), including $4,000,000 which has been funded into a restricted account and will be released upon achievement of (a)(x) positive FOCUS trial efficacy per the trial’s predefined Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) (specifically the Overall Response Rate exceeds the pre-specified threshold for success defined in the SAP by a statistically significant amount); and (y) based on data contained within the FOCUS trial database and appropriate for use with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, safety and tolerability among FOCUS trial participants is within the range of currently approved and commonly used cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents; and (b) raising subsequent net equity proceeds of at least $20,000,000. The Company may request an additional $5,000,000 principal amount (“Tranche 2”) from the Lender between October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022, with funding of Tranche 2 subject to approval of Avenue Capital’s Investment Committee.

Up to $3,000,000 of the principal amount of the Loan outstanding may be converted (the “Loan Conversion”), at the option of the Lender, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $11.98 per share. The Lender’s right to exercise the Loan Conversion is subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation set forth in the Warrant discussed below.

In connection with the Loan, on August 6, 2021, the Company issued to the Lender a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase an Applicable Number of shares of Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.01, which Warrant is exercisable until August 31, 2026. “Applicable Number” means (x) 127,755 shares of Common Stock as of the date the Warrant was issued plus (y) as of the funding date of Tranche 2, if at all, (A) 8.50% of the funded Tranche 2 multiplied by (B) the five-day volume weighted average price per share of Common Stock, determined as of the end of trading on the last trading day before the funding of Tranche 2. The Warrant may not be exercised by the Lender or other holder thereof (the “Holder”) to the extent that after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock after the exercise of the Warrant, the Holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant.

The Loan Agreement requires that the Company prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 to register all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Loan Conversion and the Warrant. It is not possible to determine if Tranche 2 or any portion thereof will ever be funded and, therefore, it is not possible to determine the Applicable Number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant after the funding of Tranche 2. Accordingly, the shares of Common Stock registered hereunder include the 127,755 shares that are now available for issuance upon an exercise of the Warrant. If and at such time that Tranche 2 of the Loan is funded, the Company will register the additional shares of Common Stock that will become available for issuance upon an exercise of the Warrant.

Rosalind Convertible Notes

On June 6, 2019, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with Rosalind Opportunities Fund I L.P. and Rosalind Master Fund L.P. (together, “Rosalind”), pursuant to which Rosalind agreed to transfer and

surrender to the Company for cancellation, warrants to purchase 5,605 shares of our Common Stock (the “Series D Warrants”) and warrants to purchase 0.1 million shares of our Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Series D Warrants”). Under the terms of the note purchase agreement, the Company agreed to sell and issue to Rosalind 8% Senior Secured Promissory Notes (“Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 secured by a security interest in all assets of the Company and maturing on July 15, 2021, in full payment and satisfaction of the purchase price for the Series D Warrants and Pre-Funded Series D Warrants.

The transactions contemplated by the note purchase agreement were effective and the Convertible Notes were issued on July 15, 2019, upon the closing of the Company’s July 2019 private placement of Series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series E Preferred Stock) and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, to various investors, including Rosalind (the “July 2019 Private Placement”). Immediately following the closing of the July 2019 Private Placement, the Convertible Notes were amended, pursuant to a note amending agreement dated as of July 15, 2019 between the Company and Rosalind to provide that the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon are convertible, at the option of the holder of the Convertible Notes, into shares of Series E Preferred Stock at the price of $1,500.

On August 6, 2021, in connection with the closing of the term loan between the Company and Avenue Capital, the Company and Rosalind executed a Second Note Amending Agreement to further amend the Convertible Notes by (a) reducing the conversion price of the notes to $1,198 per share of Series E Preferred Stock; and (b) extending the maturity date of the Convertible Notes to October 30, 2024. In addition, in order to induce Avenue Capital to provide the Loan, Rosalind agreed to subordinate (a) all of the Company’s indebtedness and obligations to the holders of the Convertible Notes and (b) all of the Convertible Note holders’ security interest in the Company’s assets, to the Loan and Avenue Capital’s security interest in the Company’s assets.

The shares of Common Stock registered hereunder include the shares of Common Stock issuable to Rosalind upon any conversion of Series E Preferred Stock held by Rosalind resulting from the conversion of Convertible Notes.

Common Stock Held by Director Roger G. Stoll and Chief Operating Officer John Purpura

In July 2019, Roger G. Stoll, the Chair of the Company’s Board of Directors, participated in the July 2019 Private Placement and, in connection therewith, was issued 93 shares of Series E Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 4,038 shares of Common Stock.

Common Stock

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share, except as otherwise required by law, and subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights.

Dividend rights. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor. Holders of common stock share ratably in any dividends declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of any outstanding preferred stock. Dividends consisting of shares of common stock may be paid to holders of shares of common stock. We do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Transfer Agent and Registrar. The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC

Preferred Stock

Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the rights and preferences of the shares of any such series without stockholder approval, of which 11,707.21 shares of Series E Preferred Stock and Series E-1 Preferred Stock, or, collectively, the Preferred Stock, is outstanding as of October 5, 2021. Our board of directors may issue preferred stock in one or more series and has the authority to fix the designation and powers, rights and preferences and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions with respect to each class or series of such class without further vote or action by the stockholders. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management.

In connection with a private placement in July 2019, the Company filed a certificate of designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series E Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or the Delaware SOS, for the purpose of amending its Certificate of Incorporation to classify and designate 40,000 authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s preferred stock as shares of Series E Preferred Stock. The preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation and are described below. The certificate of designation became effective on July 11, 2019 upon acceptance for filing by the Delaware SOS.

In connection with a private placement in August 2019, the Company filed a certificate of designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series E-1 Preferred Stock with Delaware SOS, for the purpose of amending its Certificate of Incorporation to classify and designate 12,960 authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s preferred stock as shares of Series E-1 Preferred Stock. The preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Series E-1 Preferred Stock are set forth in the certificate of designation and are described below. The certificate of designation became effective on August 15, 2019 upon acceptance for filing by the Delaware SOS.

Conversion rights. Each share of the Series E Preferred Stock and Series E-1 Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.01 per share and a stated value equal to $1,000, or the Stated Value, and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into the number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the stated value by the conversion price of $10.00, subject to certain limitations and adjustments, or the Conversion Price.

Voting rights. The Preferred Stock votes an as converted basis on all matters submitted to the holders of common stock for approval, subject to certain limitations and exceptions. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock is required to increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or to alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Preferred Stock, or to amend the Company’s organizational documents in any manner that adversely affects the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock.

Dividend rights. Except for certain adjustments, the holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Preferred Stock equal (on an as if converted basis) to and in the same form as dividends paid on shares of the common stock. Any such dividends that are not paid to the holders of Preferred Stock will increase the Stated Value. No other dividends will be paid on shares of Preferred Stock.

Table of Contents

Liquidation rights. Upon any liquidation of the Company, the holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company an amount equal to the Stated Value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon for each share of Preferred Stock before any distribution or payment will be made to the holders of the common stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws could have the effect of making it more difficult for our stockholders to replace management at a time when a substantial number of stockholders might favor a change in management. These provisions include:

 

   

providing for a staggered board; and

 

   

authorizing the board of directors to fill vacant directorships or increase the size of its board of directors.

Furthermore, our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 9,929,890 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the rights and preferences of the shares of any such series without stockholder approval. Any series of preferred stock is likely to be senior to the common stock with respect to dividends, liquidation rights and, possibly, voting rights. The board’s ability to issue preferred stock may have the effect of discouraging unsolicited acquisition proposals, thus adversely affecting the market price of our common stock.

We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits Delaware corporations from engaging in a wide range of specified transactions with any interested stockholder, defined to include, among others, any person other than such corporation and any of its majority owned subsidiaries who own 15% or more of any class or series of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, unless, among other exceptions, the transaction is approved by (i) our board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status or (ii) the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of each class or series of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, not including those shares owned by the interested stockholder.

Staggered Board of Directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that our board of directors be classified into three classes of directors of approximately equal size. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

Authorized but Unissued Shares. Our authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions, employee benefit plans and stockholder rights plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of Common Stock issued, or issuable upon the conversion of Series E Preferred Stock, to the Selling Stockholders to permit the resale of those shares of Common Stock by the holders of the shares of Common Stock from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the Selling Stockholders of the shares of Common Stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of Common Stock.

The Selling Stockholders may sell all or a portion of the share of Common Stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the Shares are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the Selling Stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of 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 negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares of Common Stock:

 

 

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

 

 

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares of 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 exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

privately negotiated transactions;

 

 

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

 

 

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares of Common Stock at a stipulated price per share;

 

 

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

 

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as permitted by that rule, or Section 4(1) under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of those provisions.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the Selling Stockholders effects such transactions by selling shares of 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 Stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of 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 FINRA Rule 5110.

In connection with sales of the shares of Common Stock, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the

shares in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares short and if such short sale shall take place after the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC, the Selling Stockholders may deliver the shares covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The Selling Stockholders may also loan or pledge shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Selling Stockholders 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 Common Stock offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Selling Stockholders have been advised that they may not use shares of Common Stock registered under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to cover short sales of our Common Stock made prior to the date the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, has been declared effective by the SEC.

A Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of Common Stock owned by it and, if the Selling Stockholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. A Selling Stockholders also may transfer and donate its shares of Common Stock in other circumstances in which case the donees, pledgees, assignees, transferees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares.

Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it is not a registered broker-dealer and does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares of Common Stock. Upon us being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of the Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.

We will pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares of Common Stock hereunder. We have agreed to indemnify Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

Item 15.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 102(b)(7) of Delaware’s General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for this limitation of liability.

Section 145 of the DGCL, or Section 145, provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include 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, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, were or are a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit 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 another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests, provided that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who 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 corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145.

Article SEVENTH of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that no person serving as a director of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for

 

II-1


Table of Contents

breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper personal benefit.

Article EIGHTH of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the Company to indemnify any person who may be indemnified by a Delaware corporation pursuant to Section 145 of the DGCL in each situation where the Company is permitted to indemnify such persons.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with our executive officers and directors pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify such persons against all expenses and liabilities incurred or paid by such person in connection with any proceeding arising from the fact that such person is or was an officer or director of our company, and to advance expenses as incurred by or on behalf of such person in connection therewith.

The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

In addition, we maintain standard policies of insurance that provide coverage (1) to our directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act and (2) to us with respect to indemnification payments that we may make to such directors and officers.

 

Item 16.

Exhibits.

A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 17.

Undertakings.

The 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 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 paragraphs a(i), a(ii) and a(iii) 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 Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in 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

 

II-2


Table of Contents

therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(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) 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

(ii) 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)(l)(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;

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) 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 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 Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and (2) for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
