ABOUT NEUROGEN CORPORATION
 
We are a drug development company focused on new small molecule drugs designed to improve the lives of patients suffering from disorders with significant unmet medical needs, including current programs in insomnia, Parkinson’s disease, restless legs syndrome, pain and anxiety.  We conduct our development independently and, when advantageous, collaborate with leading pharmaceutical companies during the drug research and development process to obtain additional resources and to access complementary expertise.  In this collaboration our partner, Merck, is responsible for funding all drug development activities.  Previously, Neurogen dedicated a significant amount of its resources to operating a drug discovery platform designed to efficiently advance drug candidates into human testing and development.  We currently have four unpartnered programs in development and have recently restructured the company to focus our resources solely on our Parkinson’s disease and restless legs syndrome development programs.
 
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1987 and commenced operations in July 1988.  Our principal executive offices and research and development facilities are located at 45 Northeast Industrial Road, Branford, Connecticut, 06405.  Our telephone number is (203) 488-8201.  We maintain a website at www.neurogen.com.  Information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and should not be considered to be part of this prospectus.
 
 
This prospectus covers the offer and sale by the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus of up to 10,349,384 shares of common stock, $0.025 par value, of Neurogen Corporation.  Of this amount, 4,154,150 shares of common stock are issuable upon exercise of warrants to purchase common stock sold by us in a private placement on April 7, 2008, in which we sold an aggregate of 981,411 shares of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock and 981,411 warrants, or Warrants, which we refer to as the 2008 Private Placement. The remaining 6,195,234 shares of common stock were issued upon the automatic conversion of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock on July 25, 2008. The terms of the Warrants are summarized below in the sections entitled “Description of the Warrants.”  Further information about the Warrants can be found in our current report on Form 8-K filed, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2008.
 
2008 Private Placement
 
On April 7, 2008, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to certain investors up to an aggregate of 981,411 shares of our Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock. With each share of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock purchased, each investor also purchased a Warrant exercisable for 13 shares of common stock, which represents 50% of the shares of common stock in to which a share of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock was exchanged for on July 25, 2008. The purchase price was $31.20 per unit, and on April 7, 2008, each unit represented a total of 39 shares of common stock, consisting of 26 shares of common stock issuable upon exchange of one share of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock and 13 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant.  The exchange price of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock was $1.20 per share, resulting in an exchange rate of 26 shares of common stock for each share of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock.  The exercise price for each Warrant is $2.30 per share of our common stock.  Prior to the 2008 Private Placement, we had 42,051,770 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, of which 21,704,763 were held by holders other than our affiliates, the selling stockholders or their affiliates.  In connection with the issuance we paid an aggregate of approximately $1.67 million to Pacific Growth Equities, LLC, Leerink Swann LLC, Oppenheimer & Co. and Merriman Curhan Ford & Co., each of whom acted as placement agent, the Placement Agents, in connection with the 2008 Private Placement.  We closed this transaction on April 11, 2008. All of the shares of  Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock were automatically converted, on a 26-for-1 basis, into 25,516,686 shares of common stock, on July 25, 2008.
 
The total purchase price paid by the selling stockholders for the units was $30,620,023, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $28,433,980, after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses payable by us, but excluding any dividend payments or liquidated damages we may be required to pay pursuant to the terms of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock.  Based on the closing price of our common stock of $2.29 per share
Page 2

on the Nasdaq Global Market on April 4, 2008, the last trading day prior to entering into the Securities Purchase Agreement, the units had an aggregate value of approximately $87,649,816, consisting of approximately $58,433,211 in shares of common stock underlying the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock and approximately $29,216,605 in shares of common stock underlying the Warrants.  The purchase price for the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock, on an as-exchanged for common stock basis, represented a 47.6% discount to the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market for the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, and the exercise price of the Warrants exceeded the closing price of our common stock on such day.  As of February 5, 2009, based on the closing price of our common stock of $0.13 per share, the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants had an aggregate value of approximately $540,040.  The table below summarizes the market price of the securities offered in the 2008 Private Placement in relation to the price paid by the selling stockholders.

In connection with the transaction, we also entered into a registration rights agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, with the selling stockholders pursuant to which we agreed to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exchange of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants. Additionally, we agreed to register any shares of our common stock held by the investors that may not currently be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, without volume or manner of sale restrictions.  We were required to file the registration statement within 20 days of the issuance of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock and to use our reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective on the earlier of: (i) 15 days after the stockholder meeting, at which the Company’s stockholders voted to approve the issuance of the common stock upon exchange of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock, which we refer to as the Exchange, or (ii) the one year anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock.  On May 5, 2008, we filed a registration statement in satisfaction of our obligation. On August 8, 2008, the registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, registering a total of 6,489,704 shares of our common stock which were issuable upon exchange of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock. Of the remaining 31,785,325 shares of common stock issued, or issuable upon exercise of Warrants, in connection with the 2008 Private Placement, 10,349,384 shares are held by our affiliates and currently not freely tradeable pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. The filing on this registration statement is intended to register those remaining shares. We will pay all of our fees and expenses related to the filing of the registration statements.  We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain liabilities and to reimburse the selling stockholders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel chosen by the holders, such amount not to exceed $25,000.

competitive factors;
 
·  
risks deriving from in-licensing of drug candidates, acquisitions or business combinations;
 
·

·  
unavailability or inadequacy of medical insurance or other third-party reimbursement for the cost of purchases of our products;
 
·  
inability to attract or retain scientific, management and other personnel;
 
·  
risks associated with the fact that a majority of our common stock is held by a limited number of stockholders; and

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock in this offering.  The selling stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from this offering.
 
A portion of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to purchase our common stock.  The exercise price of the Warrants issued to the selling stockholders is $2.30 per share.  Upon any exercise for cash of the Warrants, the selling stockholders will pay us the exercise price of the Warrants.  The Warrants are also exercisable on a cashless basis.  We will not receive any cash payment from the selling stockholders upon any exercise of the Warrants on a cashless basis.  The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including subdivisions and stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers or sales of properties and assets and upon the issuance of certain assets or securities to holders of our common stock, as applicable.  To the extent we receive proceeds from the cash exercise of the Warrants, we intend to use the proceeds for the development of existing product candidates and other general corporate purposes.
 
DESCRIPTION OF THE WARRANTS
 
The Warrants issued to the selling stockholders became exercisable pursuant to their terms on July 25, 2008, which was the date that we held a meeting of our stockholders to approve the exchange of the Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock for shares of our common stock.  Each Warrant is exercisable for 13 shares of common stock which represents 50% of the shares of common stock into which a share of Series A Exchangeable Preferred Stock was exchanged for on July 25, 2008.  The Warrants have an exercise price of $2.30 per share and will expire on April 11, 2013.  The exercise price and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including subdivisions and stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers or sales of properties and assets and upon the issuance of certain assets or securities to holders of our common stock, as applicable.

Based on the information provided to us, (i) each of the selling stockholders purchased the shares of our common stock and Warrants, as applicable, for investment for its own account and not for resale or with a view towards distribution thereof and (ii) at the time of the purchase of the shares of our common stock and the Warrants, as applicable, none of the selling stockholders had agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares of common stock, the Warrants or any shares of common stock acquired upon the exercise of Warrants.
 
The information set forth below is based upon information obtained from the selling stockholders and upon information in our possession regarding the issuance of shares of common stock to the selling stockholders in connection with the 2008 Private Placement.  The percentages of shares beneficially owned after the offering are based on 68,331,735 shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 30, 2008, including the shares of common stock covered hereby.

The table above assumes that each of the selling stockholders will sell all of its shares available for sale during the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.  None of the selling stockholders is required to sell its shares.
 
Relationships between the Company and the Selling Stockholders
 
The following current or former members of our board of directors were members or directors of the investors that purchased the in the 2008 Private Placement, and therefore were considered related parties: (i) Felix J. Baker, Ph.D., Managing Member, Baker Bros. Advisors, LLC; (ii) Julian C. Baker, Managing Member, Baker Bros. Advisors LLC; (iii) Stewart Hen, Managing Director, Warburg Pincus LLC; and (iv) Jonathan S. Leff, Managing Director, Warburg Pincus LLC.  Each of Baker Bros. Advisors LLC and Warburg Pincus LLC, and their affiliated entities, beneficially own greater than 5% of our common stock.  In addition, John Simon, Ph.D., a director of the Company, was an investor in that transaction.
 
The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors-in-interest 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 issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions.  These dispositions may be 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.  The selling stockholders may use one or more of the following methods when disposing of the shares or interests therein:
 
·  
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
·  
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
·  
through brokers, dealers or underwriters that may act solely as agents;
 
·  
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
·  
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
·  
privately negotiated transactions;
 
·  
short sales;
 
·  
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
 
·  
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
·  
the distribution of such shares to partners, members or security holders of the selling stockholders;

 
Page 7
 
 
·  
a combination of any such methods of disposition; and
 
·  
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.  The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
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 shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under a supplement or 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.
 
Upon being notified in writing by a selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.
 
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume.  The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.  The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part 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).
 
From time to time the selling stockholders may solicit offers to purchase securities directly from the public, designate agents to solicit offers to purchase securities from the public on their behalf, sell securities to one or more dealers acting as principals, or sell securities to one or more underwriters, who would purchase the securities as principal for resale to the public, either on a firm-commitment or best-efforts basis.  If the selling stockholders sell securities to an underwriter, we and the selling stockholders may execute an underwriting agreement with them at the time of sale.  Any broker-dealers, agents or underwriters that participate with the selling stockholders in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, in which event any commissions received by these broker-dealers, agents or underwriters may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

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.  We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.  We will, however, receive the proceeds from any Warrants exercised for cash.
 
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to this Registration Statement.  We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or otherwise.
 
We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the date on which the shares of common stock subject to registration rights may be sold without any volume limitations pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.  Each selling stockholder may sell all, some or none of the shares offered by this prospectus.

Item 15.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
Neurogen is a Delaware corporation.  Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware permits indemnification of directors, officers and employees of corporations organized thereunder under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations.  Article EIGHTH of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Neurogen, as amended, provides that Neurogen shall, to the full extent permitted by Section 145, indemnify its directors and officers.
 
Neurogen’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, contains provisions eliminating the personal liability of a director to Neurogen or its stockholders for money damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.  This provision in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, does not eliminate the duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law.  In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the company, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of the law, for actions leading to improper personal benefits to the director, and for payment of dividends or stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law.  The provision does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the state or federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
 
As permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, the directors and officers of Neurogen are covered by insurance against certain liabilities which might be incurred by them in such capacities and in certain cases against which they cannot be indemnified by Neurogen.
 
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director or officer of Neurogen as to which indemnification is being sought nor is Neurogen aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any officer, director, or employee of Neurogen.

Item 17.  Undertakings.
 
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1)           To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
(i)           To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
 
(ii)           To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
(iii)           To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
II - 2

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) 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 of 1933 to any purchaser:
 
(i)           Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
 
(ii)           Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus.  As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.  Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is a part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was a part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
 
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 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act and (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities 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.
 
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 Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
