This Post-Effective Amendment (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-264987) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by Impel Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 16, 2022 and declared effective on May 24, 2022.

On December 19, 2023, the Company and Impel NeuroPharma Australia PTY LTD, its wholly-owned subsidiary (together, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On February 1, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the sale of the Debtors’ assets to JN Bidco LLC (“JN Bidco”) pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement by and between JN Bidco, as purchaser, and the Company, as seller, dated December 18, 2023 (the “Stalking Horse APA”).
