Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing market. New risks emerge from time to time.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus are made as of the date of the filing, and except as required by law, we disclaim and do not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed with the SEC as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity and performance, as well as other events and circumstances, may be materially different from what we expect.

ABOUT RIMINI STREET, INC.

OVERVIEW

Rimini Street, Inc. and its subsidiaries (together, the “Company” or “we”) is a global provider of enterprise software support products and services, and the leading independent software support provider for Oracle and SAP products, based on both the number of active clients supported and recognition by industry analyst firms. We founded our company to disrupt and redefine the enterprise software support market by developing and delivering innovative new products and services that fill a then unmet need in the market. We believe we have achieved and sustained our leadership position in independent enterprise software support by delivering on our mission to provide extraordinary technology solutions that achieve each client’s strategic, operational, and financial goals.

In September 2020, we announced the global availability of our award-winning, mission-critical, 24x7x365 support, application management, security and migration services beyond proprietary databases to leading open source database platforms, including MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and MongoDB.

In November 2019, we announced the global availability of our Application Management Services (“AMS”) for Oracle, which includes coverage for Oracle Database, Middleware and a wide range of Oracle applications including E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft and Siebel. In addition to leveraging our support services for Oracle that replaces expensive and less robust software vendor annual support with a more responsive and comprehensive support offering, our clients can now have us manage their Oracle systems day-to-day with an integrated application management and support service provided by a single trusted vendor. As an integrated service, we believe we can provide clients a better model, better people, and better outcomes with higher satisfaction and significant savings of time, labor and money. The AMS for Oracle includes system administration, operational support, health monitoring and enhancement support.

In August 2019, we announced plans to globally offer AMS for SAP enterprise software, expanding the scope of support services we offer clients globally. This AMS service is in addition to our traditional enterprise Support Services. We are already providing this new SAP AMS service to clients in North and South America. The service includes system administration and SAP Basis support, system health monitoring with proactive analysis, preventative system recommendations and event detection; and enhancement support for complex SAP software landscapes.

In 2018 we announced support for Software as a Service (“SaaS”) solutions beginning with Salesforce products. As a partner of Salesforce, we provide our award-winning service and support for custom code, release updates and application integrations in addition to ongoing administrative, configuration and enhancement of Salesforce’s industry leading cloud solutions. We also provide support to clients for additional SaaS solutions that we will formally announce in the future. By providing support for SaaS as well as traditionally licensed enterprise software, Rimini Street unifies support for its clients across applications and software delivery models from one trusted provider, creating efficiencies and savings, simplifying support processes and enabling improved support outcomes.

Enterprise software support products and services is one of the largest categories of overall global information technology (“IT”) spending. We believe core enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management, product lifecycle management and technology software platforms have become increasingly important in the operation of mission-critical business processes over the last 30 years, and also that the costs associated with failure, downtime, security exposure and maintaining the tax, legal and regulatory compliance of these core software systems have also increased. As a result, we believe that licensees often view software support as a mandatory cost of doing business, resulting in recurring and highly profitable revenue streams for enterprise software vendors. For example, for fiscal year 2021, SAP reported that support revenue represented approximately 41% of its total revenue and, for fiscal year 2021, Oracle reported a margin of 85% for cloud services and license support.

We believe that software vendor support is an increasingly costly model that has not evolved to offer licensees the responsiveness, quality, breadth of capabilities or value needed to meet the needs of licensees. Organizations are under increasing pressure to reduce their IT costs while also delivering improved business performance through the adoption and integration of emerging technologies, such as mobile, virtualization, internet of things and cloud computing. Today, however, the majority of IT budget is spent operating and maintaining existing infrastructure and systems, in part as a result of software vendor policies and support models that are designed to benefit the vendor and force organizations to follow a vendor-dictated roadmap. As a result, we believe organizations are increasingly seeking ways to create competitive advantage and growth by redirecting budgets from expensive maintenance programs and costs to new technology investments that provide greater strategic value. We believe our software products and services help clients achieve these objectives by reducing the total cost of support.

4

We believe that AMS for enterprise software is a large market with significant unmet needs in client satisfaction and value. Traditional AMS providers compete on price, but the traditional AMS model is broken with a focus on a “land and expand” model based on initial cheaper, less-skilled workers but higher costs over time and frequently poor client satisfaction or degradation in service over time. Providers usually contract for lower-cost services with a goal to grow revenue through scope creep by adding hours to open tickets or selling new project work. These lower-cost AMS support models sound cost-effective, but their contractual structures can both enable and incent traditional AMS providers to maximize their own revenue at the expense of their clients by “addressing” issues (sometimes neither quickly nor efficiently), but not necessarily resolving them or their root causes. In addition, traditional AMS offerings are disparate and separate from software vendor support, with inherent inefficiencies and gaps that further limit responsiveness, root cause analysis and business value.

We believe organizations are realizing the value of an integrated, expert-led Support and AMS offering that eliminates inefficiencies, realizes joint value from the resolution of root causes that reduce issue volumes over time, and improves client satisfaction. Through our solution offerings, Rimini Street provides expert, ultra-responsive support and AMS, functioning as an extension of IT teams, with engineers available 24x7x365 around the globe for all AMS and enterprise software projects, and to fill skill gaps or help with rightsizing enterprise teams. Rimini Street teams deliver a wide variety of desired outcomes for a broad range of use cases such as supporting entire enterprise software systems, reducing costs, clearing backlogs, or facilitating the redeployment of IT teams for more strategic initiatives.

As of December 31, 2021, we employed over 1,660 professionals and supported over 2,840 active clients globally, including 72 Fortune 500 companies and 16 Fortune Global 100 companies, across a broad range of industries. We define an active client as a distinct entity, such as a company, an educational or government institution, or a business unit of a company that purchases our services to support a specific product. For example, we count as two separate active client instances in circumstances where we provide support for two different products to the same entity. We market and sell our services globally, primarily through our direct sales force, and currently have wholly-owned subsidiaries in Australia, Brazil, UAE (Dubai), France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Singapore, Sweden, Taiwan, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. We believe our primary competitors are the enterprise software vendors whose products we service and support, including IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and SAP.

Our subscription-based revenue provides a strong foundation for, and visibility into, future period results. We generated revenue of $374.4 million, $326.8 million and $281.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, representing a year-over-year increase of 15% and 16% for 2021 and 2020, respectively. We have a history of losses, and as of December 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $225.8 million. We had net income of $75.2 million, $11.6 million and $21.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We generated approximately 53%, 59% and 64% of our revenue in the United States and approximately 47%, 41% and 36% of our revenue from our international business for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

We were incorporated as Rimini Street, Inc. (“RSI”) in the state of Nevada in September 2005. In May 2017, RSI entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with GP Investments Acquisition Corp. (“GPIA”), a publicly-held special purpose acquisition company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and formed for the purpose of effecting a business combination with one or more businesses. Substantially all of GPIA’s assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents. The Merger Agreement was approved by the respective shareholders of RSI and GPIA in October 2017, and closing occurred on October 10, 2017, resulting in (i) the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of GPIA with and into RSI, with RSI as the surviving corporation, after which (ii) RSI merged with and into GPIA, with GPIA as the surviving corporation (collectively, the “Merger Transactions”). Prior to consummation of the mergers, GPIA domesticated as a Delaware corporation (the “Delaware Domestication”). Immediately after the Delaware Domestication and the consummation of the second merger, GPIA was renamed “Rimini Street, Inc.”

Our principal executive offices are located at 3993 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 500, Las Vegas, NV 89169, and our telephone number is (702) 839-9671.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

GENERAL

The following is a summary of the rights of our securities and certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

We are a Delaware corporation. Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

COMMON STOCK

As of December 31, 2021, we had issued and outstanding 87,107,419 shares of common stock and no outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Dividend Rights

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, if any, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our board of directors, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our board of directors may determine.

Voting Rights

Holders of shares of our common stock shall be entitled to cast one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Holders of shares of our common stock have no cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation establishes a classified board of directors that is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only the directors in one class will be subject to election by a plurality of votes cast at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the directors in the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms.

No Preemptive or Similar Rights

Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

If we become subject to a liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of our common stock and, if any, any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, after prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights and payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any other series of preferred stock outstanding at that time.

PREFERRED STOCK

Description of Undesignated Preferred Stock

We may issue shares of our preferred stock from time to time, in one or more series. Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized, without action by the stockholders, to designate and issue up to an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, of which 180,000 were previously designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which shares have been fully redeemed by the Company and are no longer outstanding. Our board of directors can fix by resolution or resolutions the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of any wholly unissued series of preferred stock, including without limitation authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of any such series, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing. Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible future financings and acquisitions and other corporate purposes could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company and might harm the market price of our common stock.

8

Our board of directors will make any determination to issue such shares based on its judgment as to our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders.

If we issue preferred stock pursuant to this prospectus, we will fix the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications and restrictions of each series of such preferred stock in the certificate of designations relating to that series. If we issue preferred stock pursuant to this prospectus, we will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of any certificate of designations that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering before the issuance of the related series of preferred stock. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplement related to any series of preferred stock we may offer, as well as the complete certificate of designations that contains the terms of the applicable series of preferred stock.

Origination Agent Warrants(1)	October 2017	June 2026(2)	$	5.64		3,440
Public Warrants(3)	May 2015	October 2022		11.50		8,625
GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants(4)	May 2015	October 2022		11.50		6,063
Total						18,128

⁽¹⁾ The Origination Agent Warrants were issued upon consummation of the Merger Transactions discussed under the heading “Corporate Information,” above.

⁽²⁾ The expiration date for the Origination Agent Warrants is the earlier to occur of the stated expiration date or the date when we experience a change of control.

⁽³⁾ On May 26, 2015, GPIA completed an initial public offering that included warrants for 8.6 million shares of common stock (the “Public Warrants”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to the right to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. We may elect to redeem the Public Warrants, in whole or in part, at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant if (i) 30 days’ prior written notice is provided to the holders, and (ii) the last sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the Public Warrant holders. Upon issuance of a redemption notice by us, the Public Warrant holders have a period of 30 days to exercise for cash, or on a cashless basis.

⁽⁴⁾ Simultaneously with GPIA’s initial public offering in May 2015, GPIC, Ltd., a Bermuda company (the “GP Sponsor”), purchased an aggregate of 6.1 million warrants at a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant in a private placement (the “GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants”). The GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants could not be redeemed by us so long as the GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants were held by the initial purchasers, or such purchasers’ permitted transferees. If the GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants were held by someone other than the initial purchasers or such purchasers’ permitted transferees, the GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants were redeemable by us and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. On October 29, 2021, the GP Sponsor sold the GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants for $1.04 per warrant to unaffiliated holders. As a result of the sale, the new holders of the GP Sponsor Private Placement Warrants have the same rights as that of the Public Warrant holders.

Description of Warrants

The following description of the warrant agreements summarizes certain general terms that will apply to the warrants that we may issue and not the warrants of the Company that are currently outstanding. The description is not complete, and we refer you to the warrant agreements, which will be filed with the SEC in connection with our offering of any warrants and will be available as described below under the heading “Where You Can Find Additional Information” in this prospectus, as well as the descriptions of any such warrants contained in an applicable prospectus supplement.

We may issue warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or other securities. We will issue warrants under one or more warrant agreements between us and a warrant agent that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants we are offering will include specific terms relating to the offering, including a description of any other securities sold together with the warrants. These terms will include some or all of the following:

● the title of the warrants;

● the aggregate number of warrants offered;

● the price or prices at which the warrants will be issued;

● the currency or currencies, including composite currencies, in which the prices of the warrants may be payable;

● the designation, amount and terms of the securities for which the warrants are exercisable;

● any rights to receive payment in cash or securities based on the value, rate or price of one or more specified commodities, currencies or indices;

● the number of shares of common stock, preferred stock or other securities or rights issuable upon exercise of the warrants and the procedures by which those numbers may be adjusted;

● the dates or periods during which the warrants are exercisable;

● whether the warrants are separately transferable;

● if the exercise price is not payable in U.S. dollars, the foreign currency, currency unit or composite currency in which the exercise price is denominated;

● any minimum or maximum number of warrants that may be exercised at any one time;

● any terms relating to the modification of the warrants; and

● any other terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the transferability, exchange, exercise or redemption of the warrants.

Holders of warrants will not be entitled to:

● vote, consent or receive dividends;

● receive notice as stockholders with respect to any meeting of stockholders for the election of our directors or any other matter; or

● exercise any rights as stockholders of the Company.

Each warrant that we may issue will entitle its holder to purchase the principal amount of the number of shares of preferred stock or common stock at the exercise price set forth in, or calculable as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

A holder of warrant certificates may exchange them for new warrant certificates of different denominations, present them for registration of transfer and exercise them at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Until any warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock are exercised, the holders of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the underlying common stock, preferred stock or other security.

PUBLIC UNITS

Outstanding Public Units

Each public unit consists of one share of common stock and one-half of one Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $11.50 per share.

As of December 31, 2021, 3,841 public units were outstanding. Holders of public units must elect to separate the underlying shares of our common stock and Public Warrants prior to exercising their Public Warrants. If holders hold their public units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the public units into the underlying shares of common stock and Public Warrants, or if a holder holds public units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so.

Rights as a Stockholder

Holders of our public units are entitled to cast one vote for each underlying share of our common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders and otherwise have the same rights and privileges as the holders of our common stock. No additional rights are conferred on the holders of our public units by virtue of the one-half of one Public Warrant underlying the public units, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Public Warrant.

ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF DELAWARE LAW AND OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. These provisions and certain provisions of the DGCL, which are summarized below, could discourage takeovers, coercive or otherwise. These provisions are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us.

Undesignated Preferred Stock. As discussed above under “Preferred Stock,” our board of directors has the ability to designate and issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could deter hostile takeovers or delay changes in our control or management.

Limits on Ability of Stockholders to Act by Written Consent or Call a Special Meeting. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that our stockholders may not act by written consent. This limit on the ability of stockholders to act by written consent may lengthen the amount of time required to take stockholder actions. As a result, the holders of a majority of our capital stock are not able to amend the amended and restated bylaws or remove directors without holding a meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the amended and restated bylaws.

In addition, our amended and restated bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, our chief executive officer or our president. A stockholder may not call a special meeting, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for holders controlling a majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors.

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals. Our amended and restated bylaws contain advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of directors or a committee of the board of directors. These advance notice procedures may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed and may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempt to obtain control of our company.

Board Classification. Our board of directors is divided into three classes. The directors in each class serve for a three-year term, one class being elected each year by our stockholders. This system of electing and removing directors may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors.

11

Choice of Forum. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for: (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (b) any action asserting a breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers, employees or agents to us or our stockholders; (c) any action asserting a claim pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws; or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Such exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute. We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging, under certain circumstances, in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” (in each case as defined below) for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder unless:

● prior to the date of the transaction, our board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

● upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder), (1) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (2) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

● at or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, owned 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock. We expect the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions our board of directors does not approve in advance. We also anticipate that Section 203 may discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders.

The provisions of the DGCL and the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and as a consequence, they might also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions might also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is also possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

The transfer agent for our common stock and public units and the warrant agent for our public warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, which is located at 1 State Street Plaza, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, e-mail: cstmail@continentalstock.com.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering common stock, preferred stock and warrants with an aggregate offering price not to exceed $200,000,000, to be sold by us under a “shelf” registration process.

If we offer securities under this prospectus, we will amend or supplement this prospectus by means of an accompanying prospectus supplement setting forth the specific terms and conditions and other information about that offering as is required or necessary.

We may sell the securities in any of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:

● to or through underwriters, brokers or dealers;

● directly to one or more purchasers;

● through agents;

● “at the market offerings” to or through market makers or into an existing market for the securities;

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

● block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

● privately negotiated transactions;

● short sales (including short sales “against the box”);

● through the writing or settlement of standardized or over-the-counter options or other hedging or derivative transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

● by pledge to secure debts and other obligations;

● in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents;

● a combination of any such methods of sale; and

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law and described in an applicable prospectus supplement.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering of such securities, including:

● the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents and the amounts of securities underwritten or purchased by each of them; and

● the public offering price of the securities and the proceeds to us and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers. Any public offering price and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

We may effect the distribution of the securities from time to time in one or more transactions either:

● at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;

● at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

● at prices relating to the prevailing market prices; or

● at negotiated prices.

Offers to purchase securities may be solicited directly by us and the sale thereof may be made by us directly to institutional investors or others. In such a case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We may use electronic media, including the Internet, to sell offered securities directly.

If underwriters are used in the sale of any securities, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The securities may be either offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters, or directly by underwriters. Generally, the underwriters’ obligations to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent. Depending on the type of offering, the underwriters may be obligated to purchase all of the securities if they purchase any of the securities (other than any securities purchased upon exercise of any over-allotment option). The underwriters may receive compensation from us, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell our common stock to or through dealers, and the dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Such compensation may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions.

13

We may offer the securities covered by this prospectus into an existing trading market on the terms described in the prospectus supplement relating thereto. Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in any at-the-market offerings will be described in the prospectus supplement relating thereto. To the extent that we make sales through one or more underwriters or agents in at-the-market offerings, we will do so pursuant to the terms of a sales agency financing agreement or other at-the-market offering arrangement between us and the underwriters or agents. If we engage in at-the-market sales pursuant to any such agreement, we will issue and sell the securities through one or more underwriters or agents, which may act on an agency basis or on a principal basis. During the term of any such agreement, we may sell our securities on a daily basis in exchange transactions or otherwise as we agree with the underwriters or agents. The agreement will provide that any securities sold will be sold at prices related to the then-prevailing market prices for our securities. Therefore, exact figures regarding proceeds that will be raised or commissions to be paid cannot be determined at this time. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we also may agree to sell, and the relevant underwriters or agents may agree to solicit offers to purchase, blocks of our securities. The terms of each such agreement will be set forth in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions paid to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

If we utilize a dealer in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we may sell such securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by us may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts, or concessions from us in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. Such compensation may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions.

In connection with the sale of the securities or otherwise, we may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities covered by this prospectus in the course of hedging the positions they assume. We may also sell short the securities covered by this prospectus and deliver the securities to close out short positions, or loan or pledge the securities covered by this prospectus to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. We may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that involve the delivery of the shares offered hereby to the broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer those securities.

Any underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent that participates in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” as defined in the Securities Act. Any commissions paid or any discounts or concessions allowed to any such persons, and any profits they receive on resale of the securities, may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We will identify any underwriters or agents and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. Any compensation paid to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers will be provided in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The aggregate proceeds to us from the sale of the any securities will be the purchase price of such securities less discounts and commissions, if any.

Underwriters or agents may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the securities and are permitted so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Syndicate covering transactions involve the placing of any bid on behalf of the underwriting syndicate or the effecting of any purchase to reduce a short position created in connection with the offering. The underwriters or agents also may impose a penalty bid, which permits them to reclaim selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or certain dealers if they repurchase the securities in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market. These activities, if begun, may be discontinued at any time. These transactions may be effected on any exchange on which the securities is traded, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

14

Agents, broker-dealers and underwriters may be entitled to indemnification by us, against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the agents or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

Agents, broker-dealers and underwriters or their affiliates may engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business. We may also use underwriters or other third parties with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of any such relationship in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We are subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities offered in this prospectus. The anti-manipulation rules under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of securities in the market and to the actions of the Company and our affiliates.

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

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. Instead of selling securities under this prospectus, we may sell the securities offered pursuant to other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

15

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

As permitted by Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, we have adopted provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director. The duty of care generally requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:

● any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

● any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

● any act related to unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or payment of dividends; or

These limitations of liability do not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation also authorizes us to indemnify our officers, directors and other agents to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.

As permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated bylaws provide that:

● we may indemnify our directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions;

● we may advance expenses to our directors, officers and employees in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions; and

● the rights provided in our amended and restated bylaws are not exclusive.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification provisions described above and elsewhere herein. We have entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that may be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. These indemnification agreements generally require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct. These indemnification agreements also generally require us to advance any expenses incurred by the directors or officers as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. In addition, we have purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances. These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of directors and officers for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section 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 SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of 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:

(A) 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

(B) 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)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act 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 the 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.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 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:

II-3

(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.

(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 SEC 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 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.

(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.
