     This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus dated July 25, 2005 of AtheroGenics, Inc., relating to the resale from time to time by selling securityholders of our 1.50% convertible notes due 2012 and shares of AtheroGenics, Inc. common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the prospectus, which is required to be delivered with this prospectus supplement.

The date of this prospectus supplement is January 11, 2006

 

 

     The section of the prospectus entitled “Selling Securityholders” is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
     We originally sold the notes to initial purchasers on January 12, 2005. The initial purchasers of the notes have advised us that the notes were resold in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to “qualified institutional buyers,” as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act. These subsequent purchasers, or their transferees, pledgees, donees, assignees or successors, may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the notes and/or shares of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes pursuant to this prospectus.
     The following table sets forth information with respect to the selling securityholders and the principal amount of notes and common stock beneficially owned by each selling securityholder that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders may offer all, some or none of the notes or the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes. Because the selling securityholders may offer all or some portion of the notes or the common stock, we cannot estimate the amount or percentage of the notes or the common stock that will be held by the selling securityholders upon termination of sales pursuant to this prospectus. In addition, the selling securityholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes since the date on which they provided the information regarding their holdings in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
     To our knowledge, no selling securityholder nor any of its affiliates has held any position or office with, been employed by or otherwise has had any material relationship with us or our affiliates within the past three years.
     The percentage of notes outstanding beneficially owned by each selling securityholder is based on $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of notes held by each selling securityholder at the initial conversion rate of 38.5802 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes.

**   The sum of the listed principal amount of notes beneficially owned by holders actually exceeds $200,000,000 because certain of the holders have transferred notes pursuant to Rule 144A or otherwise reduced their position prior to selling pursuant to this prospectus. As a result, we have received beneficial ownership information from additional holders without corresponding updates from the holders that sold notes to such additional holders. The

 

 

    maximum principal amount of notes that may be sold under this prospectus will not exceed $200,000,000.

(2)   Selling securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes, or acquired additional notes, since the date on which we were provided with the information regarding their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Accordingly, the information provided here for any particular securityholder may understate or overstate, as the case may be, such securityholder’s current ownership. The aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding as of the date of this registration statement is $200,000,000, and the selling securityholders will not sell under this registration statement more than that amount.
 
(3)   Includes common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes at the initial conversion rate of 38.5802 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. However, this conversion rate will be subject to adjustment as described under “Description of Notes — Conversion of Notes — Conversion Rate Adjustments” and “Description of Notes — Make Whole Payment Upon the Occurrence of a Designated Event that is also a Fundamental Change.” As a result, the amount of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may increase or decrease in the future. Assumes conversion of the full amount of 41/2% notes held by the selling securityholder at the initial conversion rate of 65.1890 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes.
