We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders. All proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock will be for the accounts of the selling stockholders. See “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.”
On December 21, 2017, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with the selling stockholders identified in the table below, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the selling stockholders an aggregate of up to 5 million shares of our Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), $0.001 par value per share (collectively referred to as the “Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of up to $20.0 million in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The selling stockholders purchased an aggregate of 3 million Shares at a price of $4.00 per share in cash at the initial closing of the Private Placement. We have the option subject to certain conditions to require the selling stockholders to purchase an additional 2 million Shares at a price of $4.00 per share in cash at a second closing of the Private Placement within one year of the initial closing of the Private Placement. Each Share is convertible at the option of the selling stockholders into our common stock: (i) following the sixth (6th) anniversary of the initial closing of the Private Placement or (ii) if earlier, during the thirty (30) day period following the last trading day of any period of three (3) or more consecutive trading days that the closing market price of our common stock exceeds $10.00. Each Share is convertible into such number of shares of our common stock determined by taking the accreted value of such Share (the purchase price thereof plus accrued but unpaid dividends thereon) and dividing such accreted value by the stated value of such Share ($4.00 per share, subject to adjustment for dilutive issuances, stock splits, stock dividends and the like) (the “Stated Value”); provided, however, that we shall not convert any Shares if doing so would cause the holder thereof, along with its affiliates, to beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the outstanding common stock immediately after giving effect to the applicable conversion, unless waiver of this restriction has been effected by the holder requesting conversion of Shares. In connection with the Private Placement, on December 21, 2017, we also entered into a Stockholder Agreement (the “Stockholder Agreement”) with the selling stockholders. Pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement, we agreed to file, within 120 days of the initial closing of the Private Placement, one or more registration statements with the SEC covering the resale under the Securities Act of 1933 of the shares of common stock underlying the Shares and any common stock issued or issuable as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the Shares. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is being filed pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement.
The following table sets forth, to our knowledge, certain information as of April 18, 2018 regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by the selling stockholders and the shares being offered by the selling stockholders. Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based upon information obtained from the selling stockholders. Information with respect to shares owned prior to the offering assumes we exercise our right to require the selling shareholders to purchase the additional 2 million Shares in June 2018, and that the Shares accrue dividends at the rate of 5% per annum compounded annually for the first six years from issuance and 3% per annum thereafter. The information below also assumes no dilutive issuances increase the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares. Information with respect to shares of common stock owned beneficially after the offering assumes the conversion of all of the Shares into common stock, the sale of all of the shares of common stock offered and no other purchases or sales of our common stock. The selling stockholders may offer and sell some, all or none of their shares of common stock.

Transfer Agent

The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, 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 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 any one or more of the following methods when disposing of 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; |
| • | 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; |
| • | underwritten transactions; |
| • | short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC; |
| • | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| • | through the distribution of the common stock by any selling stockholder to its partners, members or stockholders; |
| • | broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
| • | a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
| • | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
In addition, any shares covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus.

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 the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. 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 our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions 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 our common stock short 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 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).
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.
The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. Underwriters and their controlling persons, dealers and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us and the selling stockholders, to indemnification against and contribution toward specific civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable discounts, commissions, concessions or other compensation with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
To facilitate the offering of the shares offered by the selling stockholders, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common stock. This may include over-allotments or short sales, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more shares than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the common stock by bidding for or purchasing shares in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if shares sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.
We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.
