On January 9, 2022, we entered into a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Peter Newman, John H. Martinson and Ezra Ernst (the “Selling Stockholders”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of GCG Connect LLC d/b/a HyperPointe, a New Jersey limited liability company, from the Selling Stockholders in exchange for a cash payment and the issuance of 552,487 shares of our Common Stock at closing (the “Closing Shares”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we are required to register the resale of (a) the shares of Common Stock issued at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (b) 100% of the Earn-out Shares.

We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by any Selling Stockholder.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

We urge you to read this entire prospectus, including the more detailed consolidated financial statements, notes to the consolidated financial statements and other information incorporated by reference from our other filings with the SEC.

Overview

XpresSpa Group, Inc. (“XpresSpa Group”) is one of the leading global travel health and wellness services holding companies. XpresSpa Group currently has three reportable operating segments: XpresSpa®, XpresTest™, and Treat™.

XpresSpa Group’s subsidiary, Xpres Spa Holdings, LLC (“XpresSpa”), has been a global airport retailer of spa services through its XpresSpa spa locations, offering travelers premium spa services, including massage, nail and skin care, as well as spa and travel products.

In March 2020, we temporarily closed all global XpresSpa locations due to the categorization by local jurisdictions of the spa locations as “non-essential services.” XpresSpa reopened 22 locations as of December 31, 2021. We will evaluate reopening the remaining XpresSpa spa locations on a location-by-location basis as travel returns and resume normal operations at such selected locations once airport traffic returns to sufficient levels to support operations at a unit level, and achieve adequate unit-level economics, including acceptable profit levels as well as serves our longer term strategy of offering fully integrated health and wellness services.

Since the beginning of the temporary closure of our XpresSpa locations, we successfully launched our XpresCheck® Wellness Centers, through XpresSpa Group’s subsidiary XpresTest, Inc. (“XpresTest” or “XpresCheck”), offering COVID-19 and other medical diagnostic testing services to the traveling public, as well as airline, airport and concessionaire employees, and TSA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents. XpresCheck has entered into managed services agreements (“MSAs”) with professional medical services companies that provide health care services to patients. The medical services companies pay XpresCheck a monthly fee to operate in the XpresCheck Wellness Centers. Under the terms of the MSAs, we provide office space, equipment, supplies, non-licensed staff, and management services in return for the management fee. Also, we continue to evaluate alternative testing protocols and work in partnership with airlines and others for safe travels.

The third segment is Treat, which is operating thorough XpresSpa Group’s subsidiary, Treat, Inc. (“Treat”), launched in 2021, as our new travel, health and wellness brand transforming the way we provide care to our customers through a suite of health and wellness services supported by an integrated digital platform and a relevant retail offering to the traveling public.

Treat’s on-site centers (currently located in JFK International Airport and opening in April 2022 in Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and later this year in Salt Lake City International Airport) provide access to health and wellness services for travelers. Our teams provide travel-related diagnostic testing for virus, cold, flu and other illnesses as well as hydration therapy, IV drips, and vitamin injections. Travelers can purchase time blocks to use our wellness rooms to engage in interactive services like self-guided yoga, meditation and low impact weight exercises or to relax and unplug from the hectic pace of the airport and renew themselves before or after their trip.

Investing in our securities involves significant risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider all of the information appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as amended, as revised or supplemented by our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or our current reports on Form 8-K that we have filed with the SEC, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, and which may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities.

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Words such as, but not limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “targets,” “likely,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,” and similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus and incorporated by reference in this prospectus, we caution you that these statements are based on our projections of the future that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, to differ. The sections in our periodic reports, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as amended, and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, entitled “Business,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as other sections in this prospectus and the documents or reports incorporated by reference in this prospectus, discuss some of the factors that could contribute to these differences.

These risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, include, but are not limited to, the following:

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important cautionary statements in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. For a summary of such factors, please refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, and in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as revised or supplemented by our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or our current reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments thereto, as filed with the SEC and which are incorporated herein by reference. The information contained in this document is believed to be current as of the date of this document. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this document to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.

In light of these assumptions, risks and uncertainties, the results and events discussed in the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus or in any document incorporated herein by reference might not occur. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus or the date of the document incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We are not under any obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to us or to any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.

The Selling Stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock under this prospectus. We will not receive any proceeds from these sales. The Selling Stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and agent’s commissions and expenses they incur for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses they incur in disposing of the shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus. These may include, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws.

On January 9, 2022, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Selling Stockholders. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of GCG Connect LLC d/b/a HyperPointe, a New Jersey limited liability company, from the Selling Stockholders in exchange for a cash payment and the issuance of 552,487 Closing Shares at closing of that transaction. In addition, the Selling Stockholders may be entitled to earn-out payments of up to $7,500,000 based on the achievement of certain milestones during the three years following the date of the Purchase Agreement. Earn-out payments, if any, may be made, at the election of the Selling Stockholders, in cash, in Common Stock, valued at $1.81 per share, or a combination thereof, such that up to a maximum of 4,143,647 Earn-out Shares could be issued to the Selling Stockholders if all earn-out milestones are achieved. The Purchase Agreement provides that in the event (and to the extent) we do not have sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock that are unissued and not duly reserved for issuance upon options, warrants or other convertible securities, then we are permitted to settle any Earn-out Payments in cash.

This prospectus relates to the offer, resale or other disposition of up to 4,696,134 shares of our Common Stock, including the shares potentially issuable to the Selling Stockholders upon achievement of earn-out milestones set forth in the Purchase Agreement. We are registering the shares of Common Stock in order to permit the Selling Stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except as described under “Material Relationships and Related Party Transactions” below, none of the persons named in the table has held any position or office or had any other material relationship with us or our affiliates during the three years prior to the date of this prospectus.

In addition, as part of the Purchase Agreement, each Selling Stockholder agreed that he, she or it will not publicly sell any of the Closing Shares or any of the Earn-out Shares actually issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in excess of the volume limitations described in excess of the volume limitations described in Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act, notwithstanding the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, during the six-month period following (i) in the case of the Closing Shares, the January 14, 2022 closing date of the transaction, and (ii) in the case of any tranche Earn-out Shares issued and delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the issuance date of such tranche of Earn-out Shares.

The table below lists the Selling Stockholders and other information regarding their beneficial ownership (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder) of shares of our Common Stock. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting thereof, or to dispose or direct the disposition thereof, or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. The second column lists the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders as of March 28, 2022. The fourth column lists the shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

In accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, this prospectus covers the offer, resale or other disposition of (a) the shares of Common Stock issued at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (b) 100% of the Earn-out Shares. Percentage ownership is based on 95,071,210 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 28, 2022, plus the maximum 4,143,647 Earn-out Shares that could be issued to the Selling Stockholders if all earn-out milestones are achieved.

Because each selling security holder may dispose of all, none or some portion of their securities, no estimate can be given as to the number of securities that will be beneficially owned by a selling security holder upon termination of this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.” For purposes of the table below, however, we have assumed that after termination of this offering none of the securities covered by this prospectus will be beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders and further assumed that the Selling Stockholders will not acquire beneficial ownership of any additional securities during the offering. In addition, the Selling Stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, our securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which the information in the table is presented. This information is based upon our review of public filings, our stockholder and optionholder registers and information furnished by the Selling Stockholders.

In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Ezra Ernst accepted employment with the Company as the Chief Executive Officer of XpresTest, Inc., our subsidiary, and an Executive Vice President of the Company, effective January 14, 2022.

GCG Connect, LLC, d/b/a HyperPointe, a New Jersey limited liability company (“HyperPointe”), began delivering healthcare consulting services and technology to us in April 2020 to assist us in developing and deploying the technological infrastructure needed to scale the growth of our XpresCheck® business. As partial compensation for such services, in May 2021, we awarded and issued 100,000 immediately vested shares to HyperPointe in a private placement that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. In January 2022, immediately preceding our acquisition of all of the membership interests of HyperPointe, the 100,000 shares of restricted stock issued in May 2021 were distributed out to the Selling Stockholders in their capacity as the equityholders of HyperPointe, pro rata in accordance with their equity ownership of HyperPointe, for no consideration. The 100,000 shares of restricted stock issued in May 2021 are not covered by the resale registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

On January 14, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interests in GCG HyperPointe, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $6.6 million, plus a potential earn-out described below of up to $7.5 million (the “Acquisition”) pursuant to an acquisition agreement with all of the Selling Stockholders. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the acquisition agreement, as a portion of the initial consideration for the Acquisition, we issued 552,487 shares of our Common Stock, valued at the closing reference price of $1.81, which was equal to the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market for the 30 consecutive trading day period ended December 31, 2021, to the Selling Stockholders, as the equityholders of HyperPointe.

We also agreed pursuant to an earn-out provision to issue up to an additional $7.5 million in cash or stock if certain earn-out performance targets are met during an earn-out period ending on the third anniversary of the date of the acquisition agreement. For purposes of the earn-out, the Common Stock will also be valued based on a price of $1.81 per share. The earn-out payments may be satisfied in (i) cash, (i) shares of Common Stock (also priced at $1.81), or (iii) any combination thereof, at the election of the equity owners of HyperPointe, provided that in the event (and to the extent) XpresSpa Group does not have sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock that are unissued and not duly reserved for issuance upon options, warrants or other convertible securities), then XpresSpa Group shall be permitted to settle any earn-out payments in cash. As a result, we may issue up to an additional 4,143,647 shares of our Common Stock; however, the actual number of shares that will be issued under the earn-out, if any, will depend on (i) the extent of fulfillment of the earn-out performance targets at the time of calculation of the earn-out and (ii) the elections and conditions described in the previous sentence.

In connection with the consummation of the HyperPointe acquisition, as part of the acquisition agreement, we agreed to register for resale under the Securities Act all or any portion of the shares of the common stock that the Selling Stockholders are entitled to receive under the Purchase Agreement. We were required to, on or before March 31, 2022, file the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part registering the resale of such securities.

In connection with the consummation of the HyperPointe acquisition, we entered into an employment agreement with Ezra Ernst, one of the Selling Stockholders and the CEO of HyperPointe. Mr. Ernst continues as the CEO of HyperPointe, and also serves as CEO of XpresCheck, reporting to Scott Milford, XpresSpa Group CEO. Mr. Ernst’s responsibilities include the integration of XpresCheck’s biosurveillance screening and testing business with HyperPointe’s customer experience management technology and data management know how in the healthcare and pharmaceutical verticals.

Effective upon and subject to the closing of the Acquisition, and in connection with the Employment Agreement with Mr. Ernst, we issued options to Mr. Ernst to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which award was granted as an employment inducement award pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) (the “Inducement Award”).

The issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with the Acquisition, as well as the Inducement Award and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereof, were made in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the acquisition agreement and in reliance on the private offering exemption of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and/or the private offering safe harbor provision of Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The issuance and sale is not being conducted in connection with a public offering, and no public solicitation or advertisement will be made or relied upon in connection with the issuance of the shares.

We are registering the shares of Common Stock previously issued to the Selling Stockholders and the shares of Common Stock potentially issuable to the Selling Stockholders upon achievement of earn-out milestones set forth in the Purchase Agreement, in order to permit the Selling Stockholders to offer the shares for resale 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, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of Common Stock or interests in shares of Common Stock received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of Common Stock or interests in shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of Common Stock or interests in shares of Common Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the Selling Stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. These dispositions may be sold in one or more transactions, at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions which may involve cross or block transactions.

The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

The 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 them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of 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 selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders also may transfer or donate the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of securities or otherwise, 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 the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares short and deliver these shares to close out their short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales, or loan or pledge the shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares. 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 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).

The Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

The Selling Stockholders, individually and not severally, and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit earned by any such broker-dealer on any resale of the shares may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities of, including but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act. To the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the shares of our Common Stock to be sold, the names of the Selling Stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, 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 of which this prospectus forms a part.

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

Each Selling Stockholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of 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 Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder and any other participating person. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the Selling Stockholders effect 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, and the Selling Stockholders have advised us that, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction, such commissions will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121 and, in the case of a principal transaction, any such markup or markdown will be in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of the Common Stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the Common Stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the Selling Stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Common Stock to be made directly or through agents. There can be no assurance that any Selling Stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

We have agreed with the Selling Stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part effective until the earliest to occur of (i) the first anniversary following the last date that any Earn-out Shares are actually issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the date that all of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement have actually been sold, or may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without any restrictions (including as to volume or manner of sale). Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

We are authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of March 28, 2022, we had 95,071,210 shares of Common Stock outstanding and approximately 100 stockholders of record. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding excludes, in each case as of March 28, 2022:

The following summary of certain provisions of our Common Stock does not purport to be complete.

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW AND OF
THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS

We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder, unless the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of our board of directors or unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the “interested stockholder” and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an “interested stockholder” is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that amendments by our stockholders of our amended and restated bylaws require the approval of at least 66⅔% of the voting power of all outstanding stock. These provisions could discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company and could delay changes in management.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that directors may be removed by our stockholders only for cause and, in addition to any other vote required by law, upon the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the voting power of all outstanding securities then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. These provisions mean that a proposal to replace one or more directors on our board of directors could be delayed until the next annual meeting.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The amended and restated bylaws also provide that we are obligated to advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her under Delaware law.

We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by our board of directors. With specified exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including, among other things, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding brought against them by reason of the fact that they are or were our agents. We believe that these provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers. We also maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. This description of the limitation of liability and indemnification provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws and indemnification agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to these documents.

The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP, St. Louis, Missouri.

The following table sets forth the Company’s estimates (other than the SEC registration fee) of the expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered.

Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the “DGCL”) empowers a corporation to 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, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, 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, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he 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 his conduct was unlawful.

Subsection (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification may be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith; that indemnification or advancement of expenses provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against any liability asserted against him or incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liabilities under Section 145.

Reference is also made to Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, which enables a corporation in its certificate of incorporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for violations of a director’s fiduciary duty, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, provides that a director shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (under Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. Article V of our amended and restated by-laws provides that we shall indemnify our directors and officers, or former directors and officers, against any and all expenses and liabilities, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

We have entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers. These agreements, among other things, will indemnify and advance expenses to our directors and officers for all expenses, including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees, witness fees, damages, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by us arising out of such person’s services as our director or officer, or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request.
