Up to 13,823,512 Shares of
Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time of up to 13,823,512 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Adial Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by the Selling Stockholder identified in this prospectus (the “Selling Stockholder”), including its pledgees, assignees, donees, transferees or their respective successors-in-interest consisting of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of Series F Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Series F Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 13,823,512 shares of Common Stock (the “Series F Warrant Shares”) issued to the Selling Stockholder in a warrant inducement private placement transaction (the “Warrant Inducement”) pursuant to the terms of a warrant inducement agreement, dated November 25, 2025 (the “Inducement Agreement”) between us and the Selling Stockholder. The Warrant Inducement closed on November 28, 2025.

We are filing the registration statement on Form S-3 of which this prospectus forms a part to fulfill our contractual obligations to provide for the registration of the resale of the Series F Warrant Shares by the Selling Stockholder. See “Selling Stockholder” beginning on page 10 of this prospectus for more information about the Selling Stockholder. The registration of the shares of Common Stock to which this prospectus relates does not require the Selling Stockholder to sell any of its shares of our Common Stock.

We are not offering any shares of Common Stock under this prospectus and will not receive any proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the shares of our Common Stock covered hereby. However, we will receive the proceeds from any exercise of the Series F Warrants for cash. See “Use of Proceeds” beginning on page 5 of this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholder identified in this prospectus, or its pledgees, assignees, donees, transferees or their respective successors-in-interest, from time to time may offer and sell through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices the shares held by them directly or through underwriters, agents or broker-dealers on terms to be determined at the time of sale, as described in more detail in this prospectus. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 12 of this prospectus for more information about how the Selling Stockholder may sell its shares of Common Stock. The Selling Stockholder may be deemed an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

We have agreed to bear all of the expenses in connection with the registration of the Series F Warrant Shares pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder will pay or assume all commissions, discounts, fees of underwriters, agents, selling brokers or dealer managers and similar expenses, if any, attributable to their respective sales of the shares of Common Stock.

Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “ADIL”. On December 11, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq was $0.2971 per share. There is no established public trading market for any of the Series F Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop.

Investing in our securities involves risks. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in this prospectus, as described beginning on page 3 of this prospectus.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This prospectus contains predictive or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of current or historical fact contained in this prospectus, including statements that express our intentions, plans, objectives, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections made by management about our business, our industry and other conditions affecting our financial condition, results of operations or business prospects. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements due to numerous risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause such outcomes and results to differ include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties arising from:

Our current product candidate is undergoing clinical development and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or the European Commission. This product candidate has not been, nor may it ever be, approved by any regulatory agency or competent authorities nor marketed anywhere in the world.

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. Forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as our current plans, estimates and beliefs. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this document and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors” that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this prospectus and incorporated by reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus are made as of the date of this prospectus and the dates of the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus and we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Investors should evaluate any statements made by us in light of these important factors.

Risk Factors

Our business, results of operations and financial condition and the industry in which we operate are subject to various risks. Accordingly, investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. This prospectus does not describe all of those risks. You should consider the risk factors described in this prospectus below, as well as those described under the caption “Risk Factors” in the documents incorporated by reference herein, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, together with the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

We have described below and, in the documents incorporated by reference herein, the most significant risk factors applicable to us, but they do not constitute all of the risks that may be applicable to us. New risks may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all potential risks or to assess the likely impact of all risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus and any amendment to this prospectus or any prospectus supplement. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including the risks described below. See the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to this Offering

Resales of our Common Stock in the public market by our stockholders as a result of this offering may cause the market price of our Common Stock to fall.

We are registering Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series F Warrants. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. The issuance of new shares of Common Stock could result in resales of our Common Stock by our current stockholders concerned about the potential ownership dilution of their holdings. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional shares of Common Stock or other equity or debt securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

The number of shares being registered for resale is significant in relation to the number of our outstanding shares of Common Stock.

We have filed the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to register the shares offered hereunder for sale into the public market by the Selling Stockholder. These shares represent a large number of shares of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, and if sold in the market all at once or at about the same time, could depress the market price of our Common Stock during the period the registration statement remains effective and could also affect our ability to raise equity capital.

We have additional securities available for issuance, including shares currently held in abeyance, which, if issued, could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our Common Stock.

We may from time-to-time issue additional shares of Common Stock. In particular, the issuance of 6,553,675 shares of our Common Stock has been held in abeyance subject to a beneficial ownership limitation provision in certain warrants, such that these shares are not included in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding but may become outstanding upon the election of the holder of such warrants. We also have a substantial number of convertible securities outstanding. In addition, as opportunities present themselves, we may enter into financing or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities or shares of Common Stock. Any future issuances of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock, including upon the exercise of our outstanding warrants or options, the vesting of restricted stock awards, or the release of such shares from abeyance, would further dilute the percentage ownership of us held by holders of Common Stock and may have a negative effect on the price of our Common Stock. In addition, the issuance of certain securities may be used as an “anti-takeover” device without further action on the part of our shareholders, and may adversely affect the holders of our Common Stock.

Investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.

Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different levels of dilution and different outcomes in their investment results.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the shares you purchase in this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

Assuming that the Series F Warrant Shares are sold at the exercise price of the Series F Warrants the sale price of the Series F Warrant Shares will be substantially higher than the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after giving effect to this offering. Assuming the sale of 13,823,512 shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder at the Series F Warrants’ exercise price of $0.31 per share, you will incur immediate dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $0.07 per share if you purchase from the Selling Stockholder. As a result of the dilution to investors purchasing securities in this offering, investors may receive significantly less than the purchase price paid in this offering, if anything, in the event of the liquidation of our company. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you participate in this offering. To the extent shares are issued under outstanding options and warrants at exercise prices lower than the public offering price of our Common Stock in this offering, you will incur further dilution.

The issuance of Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders, and the sale of such Series F Warrant Shares acquired by the Selling Stockholder could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.

We are registering for resale by the Selling Stockholder up to 13,823,512 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series F Warrants. The issuance of the Series F Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Series F Warrants by the Selling Stockholder may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. The price per share of our Common Stock, together with the number of shares of Common Stock we propose to issue upon exercise of the Series F Warrants and will ultimately issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Common Stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from this offering, you may not agree with how we use the proceeds, and the proceeds may not be invested successfully.

We have not designated any portion of the net proceeds from the exercise of Series F Warrants to be used for any particular purpose. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds, if any, and you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for our company. Our management’s judgment may not result in positive returns on your investment and you will not have the opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information upon which our management bases its decisions.

Use of Proceeds

The Selling Stockholder will receive all of the proceeds of the sale of the Series F Warrant Shares offered from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. Accordingly, we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Series F Warrant Shares that may be sold from time to time pursuant to this prospectus; however, we will receive proceeds from the cash exercise of the Series F Warrants to the extent such Series F Warrants are exercised for cash. We currently intend to use these net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include operating expenses, research and development, including clinical and pre-clinical testing of our product candidates, working capital, future acquisitions and general capital expenditures. We have not determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for any of such purposes.

The expected use of net proceeds from the cash exercise of the Series F Warrants represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve and change. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures, specifically with respect to working capital, may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering. We have no current agreements, commitments or understandings for any material acquisitions or licenses of any products, businesses or technologies that are definitive or probable to close.

We will bear the out-of-pocket costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with the registration of shares of our Common Stock to be sold by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus. Other than registration expenses, the Selling Stockholder will bear any underwriting discounts, commissions, placement agent fees or other similar expenses payable with respect to sales of shares of our Common Stock.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and we do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We expect to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business rather than to pay cash dividends on our Common Stock. Any future determination to pay dividends, if any, on our Common Stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and contractual restrictions.

Determination of the Offering Price

The prices at which the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus may actually be sold will be determined by the prevailing public market price for shares of our Common Stock or by negotiations between the Selling Stockholder and buyers of our Common Stock in private transactions or as otherwise described in “Plan of Distribution.”

Dilution

If you invest in our securities, your interest will be immediately and substantially diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our Common Stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after giving effect to this offering.

Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of Common Stock in this offering and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of Common Stock immediately after the completion of this offering. Our net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2025 was approximately $4.5 million, or $0.19 per share of Common Stock. Our pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025 was approximately $7.1 million or $0.21 per share. Pro forma net tangible book value represents net tangible book value adjusted to take into account the following events subsequent to September 30, 2025: (i) the issuance of 9,215,675 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Existing Warrants (as defined below) (including 6,553,675 shares of which the issuance has been held in abeyance subject to a beneficial ownership limitation provision in certain warrants) and the receipt of net proceeds of approximately $2.5 million in connection with the Warrant Inducement and (ii) the issuance of 151,204 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an at-the-market sales agreement and the receipt of net proceeds of approximately $60,000 in connection therewith. After giving effect to the pro forma adjustments described in the preceding sentence and (a) the assumed exercise of the Series F Warrants for the underlying 13,823,512 shares of Common Stock and (b) our assumed receipt of $4.29 million in estimated net proceeds from the exercise of the Series F Warrants, and assuming all such sales and issuances were made on September 30, 2025, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025 would have been approximately $11.4 million, or approximately $0.24 per share of our Common Stock. This would result in an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value to investors purchasing securities in the offering from the Selling Stockholder, assuming such purchasers pay an amount per share equal to the exercise price of the Series F Warrants.

The following table illustrates the per share dilution to investors purchasing shares in the offering:

The table and discussion above are based on 23,836,383 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2025, and excludes:

Description of the Warrant Inducement

The Warrant Inducement Transaction

On November 25, 2025, we entered into the Inducement Agreement with the Selling Stockholder as the holder of Series C-1 Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase 4,025,000 shares of the Common Stock issued on May 5, 2025 (the “Series C-1 Warrants”) and Series E Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase 5,190,675 shares of Common Stock issued on June 18, 2025 (the “Series E Warrants” and, together with the Series C-1 Warrants, the “Existing Warrants”). Pursuant to the Inducement Agreement, the Selling Stockholder agreed to exercise for cash the Existing Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,215,675 shares of Common Stock, at a reduced exercise price of $0.31 per share. The transactions contemplated by the Inducement Agreement closed on November 28, 2025 (the “Closing Date”). We received an aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.86 million, before deducting financial advisory fees and other expenses payable by us.

In consideration of the Selling Stockholder’s immediate exercise of the Existing Warrants in accordance with the Inducement Agreement, we issued unregistered Series F Warrants to purchase up to 13,823,512 shares of Common Stock.

In addition, pursuant to the Inducement Agreement, and subject to certain exceptions, we agreed not to, until 60 days from the date of the Inducement Agreement, (i) enter into or effect any issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Inducement Agreement), or (ii) file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement to any existing registration statement, which certain exceptions include, sales of Common Srock pursuant to an “at the market offering” with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”) (the “ATM Offering”) beginning on the 31st day following the date of the Inducement Agreement and the filing of the Resale Registration Statement. We also agreed not to enter into a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Inducement Agreement) for a period of six (6) months following the date of the Inducement Agreement, provided however that sales pursuant to the ATM Offering are permitted to be made beginning on the 31st day following the date of the Inducement Agreement.

The issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Existing Warrants was registered pursuant to, (i) with respect to the Series C-1 Warrants, an existing registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-287679), which was declared effective by the SEC on June 9, 2025, and (ii) with respect to the Series E Warrants, an existing registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-287826), which was declared effective by the SEC on June 16, 2025.

We agreed in the Inducement Agreement to file the Resale Registration Statement to register the resale of the Series F Warrant Shares within thirty (30) days following the date of the Inducement Agreement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within sixty (60) days (or, in the event of a full review, ninety (90) calendar days) following the date of the Inducement Agreement.

We further agreed in the Inducement Agreement to seek approval from our stockholders of the full exercise of the Series F Warrants and the issuance of all of the Series F Warrant Shares upon the exercise thereof (“Stockholder Approval”), it being understood that no portion of the Series F Warrants may be exercised until such Stockholder Approval is obtained. We agreed to hold an annual or special meeting of our stockholders on or prior to the date that is one hundred and twenty (120) days following the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval. If we do not obtain all components of the Stockholder Approval at the first such meeting, we are obligated to call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until the earlier of the date on which Stockholder Approval is obtained or the Series F Warrants are no longer outstanding.

We expects to use the net proceeds from these transactions for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

AGP served as our financial advisor in connection with the transactions described in the Inducement Agreement, and we agreed to pay AGP a financial advisory fee of 8.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in connection with the issuance and sale of securities covered by the Inducement Agreement and $25,000 for legal fees.

Terms of the Series F Warrants

The Series F Warrants have an exercise price of $0.31 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Series F Warrants, will be exercisable at any time on or after the date on which we receive Stockholder Approval (the “Stockholder Approval Date”) and have a term of exercise of twenty-four (24) months from the Stockholder Approval Date.

If at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of, the Series F Warrant Shares by the Selling Stockholder, then the Series F Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise.”

The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Series F Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Series F Warrants, the holders of the Series F Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Series F Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Series F Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental transaction, the holder will have the right to require us to repurchase its Series F Warrants at the Black Scholes Value; provided, however, that, if the fundamental transaction is not within our control, including not approved by our board of directors, then the holder shall only be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of the Series F Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock in connection with the fundamental transaction.

We may not effect the exercise of Series F Warrants, and the applicable holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any such Series F Warrants, which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder of such Series F Warrants (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of such Series F Warrants.

Except as otherwise provided in the Series F Warrants or by virtue of a holder’s ownership of shares of Common Stock, such holder of Series F Warrants does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of Common Stock, including any voting rights, until such holder exercises such holder’s Series F Warrants. The Series F Warrants will provide that the holders of the Series F Warrants have the right to participate in distributions or dividends paid on shares of Common Stock.

Selling Stockholder

The shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Stockholder are the Series F Warrant Shares issuable to the Selling Stockholder upon exercise of the Series F Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Series F Warrants, see “Description of the Warrant Inducement” above. We are registering the shares of Common Stock in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the Series F Warrant Shares for resale from time to time.

The Selling Stockholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years other than the ownership of our Common Stock or other equity or debt securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock.

The table below lists the Selling Stockholder and provides information regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder. The second column titled “Number of Shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned Prior to Offering” lists the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder, based on its ownership of the Series F Warrants and Series F Warrant Shares after the transactions described in the section titled “Description of the Warrant Inducement,” as of December 8, 2025, assuming exercise of the Series F Warrants held by the Selling Stockholder on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises. The third column titled “Maximum Number of Shares of Common Stock to be Sold in this Offering” lists the maximum number of shares of Common Stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder, also without regard to any limitations on exercises.

In accordance with the terms of the Inducement Agreement, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of Series F Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants, determined as if the outstanding Series F Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Series F Warrants. The fourth and fifth columns titled “Number of Shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned After Offering” and “Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned After Offering” assume the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus.

Under the terms of the Series F Warrants, the Selling Stockholder may not exercise the Series F Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such Selling Stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock that would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of our outstanding shares of Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the second and third columns do not reflect this limitation. The Selling Stockholder may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Plan Of Distribution

The Selling Stockholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of its securities covered hereby on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction, a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities are “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the Selling Stockholder does not own any Series F Warrants or Series F Warrant Shares.

Pursuant to applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Item 13. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The following table sets forth all expenses to be paid by the registrant, other than any estimated underwriting discounts and commissions, in connection with the offering and sale of the shares of Common Stock being registered. The Selling Stockholder will pay any underwriting discounts, commissions and transfer taxes applicable to shares of Common Stock sold by it. All amounts shown are estimates except for the SEC registration fee.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who were, are, or are threatened to be made, parties 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 such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who were, are, or are threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred.

The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability for any:

The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation includes such a provision. Expenses incurred by any officer or director in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be paid by the Registrant upon delivery to it of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant.

Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that a director who willfully or negligently approves of an unlawful payment of dividends or an unlawful stock purchase or redemption, may be held liable for such actions. A director who was either absent when the unlawful actions were approved or dissented at the time may avoid liability by causing his or her dissent to such actions to be entered in the books containing minutes of the meetings of the board of directors at the time such action occurred or immediately after such absent director receives notice of the unlawful acts.

As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers, that require the Registrant to indemnify such persons against any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’, witness or other professional fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (including derivative actions), whether actual or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer or is or was acting or serving as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Registrant or any of its affiliated enterprises. Under these agreements, the Registrant is not required to provide indemnification for certain matters, including:

The indemnification agreements also set forth certain procedures that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder.

Except as otherwise disclosed in our filings with the SEC, there is at present no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of the Registrant’s directors or executive officers as to which indemnification is required or permitted, and the Registrant is not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.

The Registrant has an insurance policy in place that covers its officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or otherwise.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

During the last three years, we have issued unregistered securities to the persons described below. We believe that each transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof as a transaction not involving a public offering and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
