EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this
“Registration Statement”) includes a reoffer prospectus (the
“Reoffer Prospectus”) prepared in accordance with General
Instruction C to Form S-8 and in accordance with the
requirements of Part I of Form S-3. This Reoffer
Prospectus may be used for reoffers and resales of shares of
Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the
“Class A common stock”), of Vicarious Surgical Inc. (the
“Registrant,” “we,” “us” or “our”)
f/k/a D8 Holdings Corp., our legal predecessor and a special
purpose acquisition company (“D8”), on a continuous or
delayed basis that may be deemed to be “restricted securities” or
“control securities” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder, that are issuable to certain stockholders
that are current executive officers and directors of the Registrant
identified in the Reoffer Prospectus (the “selling
securityholders”). The number of shares of Class A common stock
included in the Reoffer Prospectus represents shares of Class A
common stock acquired by or issuable to the selling securityholders
pursuant to equity awards and does not necessarily represent an
intention to sell any or all of such shares of Class A common
stock. As specified in General Instruction C
of Form S-8, the amount of securities to be
reoffered or resold by means of the Reoffer Prospectus by each
selling securityholder, and any other person with whom he or she is
acting in concert for the purpose of selling the Registrant’s
securities, may not exceed, during any three-month period, the
amount specified in Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act.
On September 17, 2021, the Registrant completed its business
combination with what was then known as Vicarious Surgical Inc.
(“Legacy Vicarious”) in accordance with the terms of the
Business Combination Agreement, dated as of April 15, 2021 (the
“Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the
Registrant, Snowball Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Merger Sub”), and Legacy Vicarious, pursuant to which
Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy Vicarious, with Legacy
Vicarious surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant
(the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, the
Registrant changed its name to “Vicarious Surgical Inc.” and Legacy
Vicarious changed its name to “Vicarious Surgical Operating Co.” On
October 6, 2021, Legacy Vicarious changed its name from
“Vicarious Surgical Operating Co.” to “Vicarious Surgical US
Inc.”

REOFFER PROSPECTUS
Vicarious Surgical, Inc.
4,828,699 Shares of Class A Common Stock
This reoffer prospectus (“Reoffer Prospectus”) relates to
the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders
named in this Reoffer Prospectus (the “selling
securityholders”), or their permitted transferees, of up to
4,828,699 shares (the “Shares”) of Class A common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”),
of Vicarious Surgical Inc. (the “Company”). This Reoffer
Prospectus covers the Shares that will be acquired by or issuable
to the selling securityholders pursuant to a stock option agreement
or restricted stock unit agreement, as applicable, between the
Company and such selling securityholder under the Vicarious
Surgical Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”).
We are not offering any of the Shares and will not receive any
proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the selling securityholders
made hereunder. The selling securityholders are certain of our
current executive officers and directors, all of whom may be deemed
to be an “affiliate” of our company (as defined in Rule 405 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”)).
Subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the
shares of Class A common stock offered hereby pursuant to the terms
of the relevant award agreements, the selling securityholders may
sell the Shares described in this Reoffer Prospectus in a number of
different ways and at varying prices, including sales in the open
market, sales in negotiated transactions, and sales by a
combination of these methods. The selling securityholders may sell
any, all, or none of the Shares and we do not know when or in what
amount the selling securityholders may sell their Shares hereunder
following the effective date of this registration statement. The
price at which any of the Shares may be sold, and the commissions,
if any, paid in connection with any such sale, are unknown and may
vary from transaction to transaction. The Shares may be sold at the
market price of the Class A common stock at the time of a sale, at
prices relating to the market price over a period of time, or at
prices negotiated with the buyers of shares. The Shares may be sold
through underwriters or dealers which the selling securityholders
may select. If underwriters or dealers are used to sell the Shares,
we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus
supplement. We provide more information about how the selling
securityholders may sell their Shares in the section titled
“Plan of Distribution.” The selling securityholders will
bear all sales commissions and similar expenses. Any other expenses
incurred by us in connection with the registration and offering
that are not borne by the selling securityholders will be borne by
us. We are registering the offer and sale of the Shares to satisfy
certain registration rights we have granted.
Our Class A common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange
(“NYSE”) under the symbol “RBOT.” On December 16, 2021, the
last quoted sale price for our Class A common stock as reported on
NYSE was $10.76.
The amount of the Shares to be offered or resold under this Reoffer
Prospectus by each selling securityholder, or other person with
whom he or she is acting in concert for the purpose of selling our
securities, may not exceed, during any three-month period, the
amount specified in Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act.
We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting
company” as defined under the U.S. federal securities laws, and, as
such, we have elected to comply with certain reduced public company
reporting requirements for this Reoffer Prospectus and may elect to
do so in future filings.
The Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the
“Commission”) may take the view that, under certain
circumstances, the selling securityholders and any broker-dealers
or agents that participate with the selling securityholders in the
distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act. Commissions, discounts or
concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agent may be
deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act. See
the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk.
Before buying any securities, you should carefully read the
discussion of the risks of investing in our securities in the
section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 3 of
this Reoffer Prospectus.
Neither the Securities and
Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has
approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this
Reoffer Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to
the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this Reoffer Prospectus is December 17,
2021.

SUMMARY OF THE
PROSPECTUS
This summary highlights information contained in greater detail
elsewhere in this Reoffer Prospectus. This summary does not contain
all of the information you should consider in making your
investment decision. You should read the entire Reoffer Prospectus
carefully before making an investment in our securities. You should
carefully consider, among other things, our consolidated financial
statements and the related notes and the sections titled “Risk
Factors,” “Business,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations” incorporated by
reference in this Reoffer Prospectus. Unless the context otherwise
requires, we use the terms “Vicarious,” the “Company,” “we,” “us”
and “our” in this Reoffer Prospectus to refer to Vicarious Surgical
Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries.
The Company
We are combining advanced
miniaturized robotics, computer science and 3D visualization to
build an intelligent and affordable, single-incision surgical
robot, called the Vicarious System, that virtually transports
surgeons inside the patient to perform minimally invasive surgery,
or MIS. With our disruptive next-generation robotics
technology, we are seeking to increase the efficiency of surgical
procedures, improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
We believe that the Vicarious System is the only surgical robotic
system to receive a “Breakthrough Device” designation from the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, for ventral
hernia procedures. A Breakthrough Device designation offers
multiple benefits designed to accelerate the timeline to market for
novel medical devices, including priority review of the
pre-market submission for the device, and an established
pathway to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or
CMS, reimbursement and coverage. However, the process of medical
device development is inherently uncertain and there is no
guarantee that a Breakthrough Device designation will accelerate
the timeline for approval or make it more likely that the Vicarious
System will be approved. Led by a visionary team of engineers from
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT, we intend to
deliver the next generation in robotic-assisted surgery,
designed to solve the shortcomings of open surgery, and current
laparoscopic and robot-assisted MIS. We have developed
multiple prototypes and intend to request a
pre-submission meeting with the FDA by the end of 2021 and to
file a 510(k) application for the Vicarious System for ventral
hernia procedures by the end of 2023, and other indications
thereafter.
Background and Business Combination
On September 17, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), D8 Holdings
Corp., a Delaware corporation that was previously a Cayman Islands
exempted company that migrated to and domesticated as described
below (“D8” and after the Business Combination described
herein, the “Company”), consummated the previously announced
business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of
April 15, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”),
by and among D8, Snowball Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Merger Sub”), Vicarious Surgical Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Legacy Vicarious”) and Adam Sachs, in his
capacity as the stockholder representative.
Prior to the Closing Date, on September 16, 2021, as
contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, D8 filed a
notice of deregistration and necessary accompanying documents with
the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, and a certificate of
incorporation and a certificate of corporate domestication with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which D8 was
domesticated and continues as a Delaware corporation, changing its
name to “Vicarious Surgical Inc.” (the “Domestication”). As
a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication,
(a) each D8 Unit then issued and outstanding as of immediately
prior to the Domestication automatically separated into the
underlying D8 Class A ordinary share and one-half of a D8
Public Warrant, (b) each D8 Class A ordinary share issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication remained
outstanding and automatically converted into one share of
Class A common stock, (c) each D8 Class B ordinary
share, par value $0.0001 per share, of D8 issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Domestication automatically converted into
one share of D8 Class A ordinary share, and (d) each D8
Public Warrant automatically converted into a Public Warrant on the
same terms as the D8 Public Warrants. No fractional Public Warrants
were issued upon separation of the D8 Units.
On September 17, 2021, concurrently with the consummation of
the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by
the Business Combination Agreement (such completion, the
“Closing”), D8 changed its name to “Vicarious Surgical Inc.”
(“Vicarious Surgical”) and Legacy Vicarious changed its name
to “Vicarious Surgical Operating Co.” On October 6, 2021,
Legacy Vicarious changed its name from “Vicarious Surgical
Operating Co.” to “Vicarious Surgical US Inc.”
As a consequence of the Business Combination, each D8 Class B
ordinary share or that was issued and outstanding as of immediately
prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective
Time”) was converted, on a one-for-one basis, into a share
of Class A common stock. The Business Combination had no
effect on the Class A common stock that was issued and
outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, which
continues to remain outstanding, except for the shares redeemed in
connection with the Business Combination.
In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination,
(i) Legacy Vicarious stockholders received shares of Vicarious
Surgical Class A common stock equal to the amount of shares of
Legacy Vicarious capital stock owned by such stockholder multiplied
by 3.29831 for each share in such class of Legacy Vicarious capital
stock that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time, rounded to the nearest whole number of shares;
(ii) the Legacy Vicarious Founders received shares of
Vicarious Surgical Class B common stock equal to the amount of
shares of Legacy Vicarious Class A common stock owned by such
Legacy Vicarious Founder multiplied by 3.29831 for each share in
such class of Legacy Vicarious Class A common stock that was
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time,
rounded to the nearest whole number of shares; (iii) each
option to purchase shares of Legacy Vicarious common stock, whether
vested or unvested, that was outstanding and unexercised as of
immediately prior to the Effective Time was assumed by D8 and
became an option (vested or unvested, as applicable) to purchase a
number of shares of Vicarious Surgical Class A common stock
equal to the number of shares of Legacy Vicarious common stock
subject to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time
multiplied by 3.29831, rounded down to the nearest whole number of
shares, at an exercise price per share equal to the exercise price
per share of such option immediately prior to the Effective Time
divided by 3.29831 and rounded up to the nearest whole cent; and
(iv) each warrant to purchase shares of Legacy Vicarious
Class B common stock that was issued and outstanding prior to
the Effective Time was assumed and converted into a warrant
exercisable for shares of Vicarious Surgical Class A common
stock.
In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Business
Combination Agreement, on April 15, 2021 and September 9,
2021, D8 entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription
Agreements”) with certain qualified institutional buyers and
accredited investors (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to
which the PIPE Investors purchased, immediately prior to the
Closing, an aggregate of 14,200,000 shares of Class A
common stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “PIPE
Financing”).
The Offering
This Reoffer Prospectus relates to the public offering by the
selling securityholders listed in this Reoffer Prospectus, of up to
4,828,699 shares of Class A common stock that will be acquired by
or issuable to selling securityholders pursuant to a stock
option agreement or restricted stock unit agreement, as applicable,
between the Company and such selling securityholder under the 2021 Plan. Subject to the
satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the shares of Class A
common stock offered hereby pursuant to the terms of the relevant
award agreements, the selling securityholders may from time to time
sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the shares of
Class A common stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus through
underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers (or a single
purchaser) or through broker-dealers or agents. We will receive
none of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of Class A common
stock by the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders
will bear all sales commissions and similar expenses in connection
with this offering. We will bear all expenses of registration
incurred in connection with this offering, as well as any other
expenses incurred by us in connection with the registration and
offering that are not borne by the selling
securityholders.
RISK FACTORS
Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of
risk. Before you make a decision to buy our securities, you should
carefully consider the risks and uncertainties set forth under the
heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2021,
which are incorporated by reference herein, and in subsequent
reports we file with the SEC, together with the financial and other
information contained or incorporated by reference in this Reoffer
Prospectus. Our business, operating results, financial condition or
prospects could also be harmed by risks and uncertainties not
currently known to us or that we currently do not believe are
material. If any of these risks actually occur, our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be
materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of
our Common Stock could decline and you may lose all or a part of
your investment. Only those investors who can bear the risk of loss
of their entire investment should invest in our Common Stock.
The risks we have described also include forward-looking
statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from
those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See
“Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares
hereunder. All of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares offered
by the selling securityholders pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus
will be sold by the selling securityholders for their respective
accounts. See the sections titled “Selling Securityholders”
and “Plan of Distribution” described below.
SELLING
SECURITYHOLDERS
The following table sets forth information with respect to the
selling securityholders and the shares of our Class A common stock
(i) beneficially owned by the selling securityholders, and (ii)
with respect to shares of Class A common stock covered by this
Reoffer Prospectus, shares subject to options or restricted stock
units held by the selling securityholders, in each case as of
December 1, 2021 (the “Determination Date”). The percentage
of beneficial ownership is calculated based on 118,623,682 shares
of Common Stock, comprised of 98,833,822 shares of Class A common
stock and 19,789,860 shares of Class B common stock outstanding as
of such date. The selling securityholders may offer all, some or
none of the shares of Class A common stock covered by this
prospectus. Information concerning the selling securityholders may
change from time to time and, if necessary, we will amend or
supplement this Reoffer Prospectus accordingly. We cannot give an
estimate as to the number of shares of Class A common stock that
will actually be held by the selling securityholders upon
termination of this offering, because the selling securityholders
may offer some or all of their Class A common stock under the
offering contemplated by this Reoffer Prospectus or acquire
additional shares of Class A common stock. We cannot advise you as
to whether the selling securityholders will, in fact, sell any or
all of such shares of Class A common stock.
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the
rules of the SEC and the information is not necessarily indicative
of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Shares of common
stock that may be acquired by an individual or group pursuant to
the exercise of options or warrants or settlement of restricted
stock units (“RSUs”) that are currently exercisable or may
become exercisable or settleable are deemed to be outstanding for
the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such
individual or group, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the Shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus to
permit the selling securityholders to conduct public secondary
trading of the Shares from time to time after the date of this
Reoffer Prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from
the sale of the Shares offered by this Reoffer Prospectus. The
aggregate proceeds to the selling securityholders from the sale of
the Shares will be the purchase price of the Shares less any
discounts and commissions. We will not pay any brokers’ or
underwriters’ discounts and commissions in connection with the
registration and sale of the Shares covered by this Reoffer
Prospectus. The selling securityholders reserve the right to accept
and, together with their respective agents, to reject, any proposed
purchases of the Shares to be made directly or through agents.
The Shares offered by this Reoffer Prospectus may be sold from time
to time to purchasers:
|
● |
directly by the selling
securityholders; |
|
● |
through underwriters,
broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form
of discounts, commissions or agent’s commissions from the selling
securityholders or the purchasers of the Shares; or |
|
● |
through a combination of any of these methods of sale. |
Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the
sale or distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be
“underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a
result, any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any
such broker-dealer or agents who are deemed to be underwriters will
be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the
Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain
statutory liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act. We will make copies of this Reoffer Prospectus available to
the selling securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To our
knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or
understandings between the selling securityholders and any
underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the
Shares by the selling securityholders.
The Shares may be sold in one or more transactions at:
|
● |
prevailing market prices at the
time of sale; |
|
● |
prices related to such prevailing
market prices; |
|
● |
varying prices determined at the
time of sale; or |
These sales may be effected in one or more transactions:
|
● |
on any national securities exchange
or quotation service on which the Shares may be listed or quoted at
the time of sale, including NYSE; |
|
● |
in the over-the-counter
market; |
|
● |
in transactions otherwise than on
such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market; |
|
● |
through trading plans entered into
by the selling securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the
Exchange Act that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant
to this Reoffer Prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement
hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the
basis of parameters described in such trading plans; |
|
● |
any other method permitted by
applicable law; or |
|
● |
through any combination of the
foregoing. |
These transactions may include block transactions or crosses.
Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent
on both sides of the trade.
At the time a particular offering of the Shares is made, a
prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will
set forth the name of the selling securityholders, the aggregate
amount of Shares being offered and the terms of the offering,
including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any
underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any discounts,
commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the
selling securityholders and (3) any discounts, commissions or
concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers.
The selling securityholders will act independently of us in making
decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size of each
resale or other transfer. There can be no assurance that the
selling securityholders will sell any or all of the Shares under
this Reoffer Prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that the
selling securityholders will not transfer, distribute, devise or
gift the Shares by other means not described in this Reoffer
Prospectus. In addition, any Shares covered by this Reoffer
Prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities
Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this Reoffer
Prospectus. The Shares may be sold in some states only through
registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some
states the Shares may not be sold unless they have been registered
or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or
qualification is available and complied with.
The selling securityholders and any other person participating in
the sale of the Shares will be subject to the Exchange Act. The
Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which
may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Shares by
the selling securityholders and any other person. In addition,
Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the
distribution of the Shares to engage in market-making activities
with respect to the particular securities being distributed. This
may affect the marketability of the Shares and the ability of any
person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect
to the Shares.
Once sold under the registration statement of which this Reoffer
Prospectus forms a part, the shares of Class A common stock will be
freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our
affiliates.

Indemnification of Directors and
Officers. |
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the
“DGCL”), permits a corporation to indemnify its directors
and officers against expenses, including attorneys’ fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and
reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding brought by third parties. The directors or officers must
have acted in good faith and in a manner they 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
reason to believe their conduct was unlawful. In a derivative
action, an action only by or in the right of the corporation,
indemnification may be made only for expenses, including attorney’s
fees, actually and reasonably incurred by directors and officers in
connection with the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and
only with respect to a matter as to which they acted in good faith
and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification shall be
made if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which
the action or suit was brought determines upon application that the
defendant officers or directors are fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of
liability. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation
and the amended and restated bylaws of the registrant provide that
the registrant may indemnify its directors, officers, employees or
agents to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in
its charter that a director of the corporation shall not be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except
for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty
to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (3) for payments of unlawful dividends or
unlawful stock purchases or redemptions or (4) for any transaction
from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The
current certificate of incorporation of the registrant provide for
such limitation of liability.
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our
directors and executive officers in which we have agreed to
indemnify and hold harmless, and also advance expenses as incurred,
to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, against all
expenses, losses and liabilities incurred by the indemnitee or on
the indemnitee’s behalf arising from the fact that such person is
or was a director, officer, employee or agent of our company or our
subsidiaries.
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, our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws, any
agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise.
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.

Denotes management contract or
compensatory plan or arrangement |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
|
(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, as amended; |
|
(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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective
registration statement; and |
|
(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. |
|
(2) |
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, 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. |
|
(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
to any purchaser, 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 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; |
|
(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. |
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities 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.
Signatures
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement
on Form S-8 to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized in the City of Waltham, State of
Massachusetts, on December 17, 2021.
