Neither we nor the selling stockholders take responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. Neither we nor the selling stockholders are making an offer of these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “would,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “seek” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements about:

We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus and our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments thereto reflected in subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and any other documents we file with the SEC from time to time. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events, or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

Neither we, the selling stockholders nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. Moreover, the forward-looking statements made or incorporated by reference in this prospectus relate only to expectations as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made or incorporated by reference in this prospectus to reflect events or circumstances after the date such statements are made or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. 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. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date such statements are made, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

RISK FACTORS

Investment in any shares of Class A common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement involves risks. Before deciding whether to acquire any such shares, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any amendments thereto, as well as any risks and uncertainties described in subsequent filings with the SEC, together with other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement. The risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors, or factors that we currently deem immaterial, that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of the risks we face actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our Class A common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section above titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

USE OF PROCEEDS

All of the shares of Class A common stock offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the selling stockholders for their accounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these sales. The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by it for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by it in disposing of the shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, NYSE listing fees and fees of our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The shares of Class A common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those previously issued to the selling stockholders.

On March 12, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2025 Purchase Agreement”) with the purchasers named therein, for the private placement (the “2025 Private Placement”) of (i) 4,843,750 shares of our Class A common stock at a purchase price of $8.00 per share, and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 156,250 shares of Class A common stock, at a purchase price of $7.9999 per pre-funded warrant. The pre-funded warrants had an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A common stock, were exercisable immediately, and remained outstanding until fully exercised. All pre-funded warrants were exercised on a cashless basis. The aggregate gross proceeds for the 2025 Private Placement were $40.0 million, before deducting offering expenses, and the 2025 Private Placement closed on March 14, 2025.

We are registering the shares of Class A common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the shares of Class A common stock and the exercised pre-funded warrants, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A common stock by each of the selling stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of Class A common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder, based on its ownership of the shares of Class A common stock as of April 13, 2026.

The third column lists the shares of Class A common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders.

In accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with the selling stockholders, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Class A common stock issued to the selling stockholders in the 2025 Private Placement described above and (ii) the number of shares of Class A common stock issued upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each selling stockholder of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the NYSE 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. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

The selling stockholders 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 stockholders may arrange for other brokers-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 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 stockholders 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 stockholders 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 stockholders 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 stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “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. Each selling stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have 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.

Under applicable rules and regulations under 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 Class A common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders 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 Class A common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders 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)

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED

The following summary description of our capital stock is based on the provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (our “certificate of incorporation”), our amended and restated bylaws (our “bylaws”), the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and the agreements described below. This information may not be complete in all respects and is qualified entirely by reference to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, the DGCL and such agreements. For information on how to obtain copies of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and such agreements, which are exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, see the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

General

Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,115,000,000 shares, $0.0001 par value per share, of which:

Common Stock

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The rights of the holders of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and certain economic rights. Some of the terms of these classes of our common stock are discussed in greater detail below.

Dividend Rights

Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes and series of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of our Class A common stock are entitled to receive dividends on a pro rata basis out of any assets legally available as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors. Dividends may not be declared or paid on our Class B common stock.

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 on an equal priority, pro rata basis to the holders of our common stock unless different treatment is approved by the majority of the holders of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock, each voting separately as a class, subject to the rights of any holders of any series of our preferred stock then outstanding. Our Class B common stock is entitled to receive a maximum of $0.0001 per share upon a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up.

Voting Rights

Holders of our Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held as of the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters and holders of our Class B common stock are entitled to nine votes for each share held at the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters, except as otherwise required by law. The holders of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock vote together as a single class, unless otherwise expressly provided in our certificate of incorporation or required by law.

Under our certificate of incorporation, approval of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, voting as a separate class, is required to:

In addition, Delaware law could require either holders of our Class A common stock or of our Class B common stock to vote separately as a single class in the following circumstances:

Subject to any rights of the holders of any series of our preferred stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors that constitutes our board of directors will be fixed solely by resolution of our board of directors. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws have established 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 the 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. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors.

Conversion and Transferability

Shares of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock are not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock. Each share of our Class B common stock will automatically and without further action on the part of us or the holders of our Class B common stock be transferred to us for no consideration upon (i) the affirmative written election of such holder, (ii) the date fixed by our board of directors that is no less than 61 days and no more than 180 days following the first time after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the Closing Date of our merger with NavSight, that both (a) such Founder (as such term is defined in our certificate of incorporation) is no longer providing services to us as an officer, employee, or consultant and (b) such Founder is no longer one of our directors, (iii) the date fixed by our board of directors that is no less than 61 days and no more than 180 days following the date that such Founder’s employment with us is terminated for Cause for Termination (as such term is defined in our certificate of incorporation), or (iv) upon the death or disability of such Founder. In addition, upon the sale, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of shares of Class A common stock held by the Founders pursuant to transfers not permitted by our certificate of incorporation, an equivalent number of shares of Class B common stock held by such Founder will be automatically and without further action on the part of us or such Founder be transferred to us for no consideration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all outstanding shares of our Class B common stock will automatically and without further action on the part of us or the holders of Class B common stock be transferred to us for no consideration on (i) the date specified by the holders of two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, voting as a separate class, or in the affirmative written election executed by the holders of two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, or (ii) the date fixed by our board of directors that is no less than 61 days and no more than 180 days following the date that the number of outstanding shares of our Class B common stock held by the Founders represents less than 10% of the aggregate number of shares of our Class B common stock held collectively by the Founders as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the Closing Date.

Other Matters

All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights and is not subject to redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Preferred Stock

Our board of directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, to provide for the issuance of preferred stock in series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the

applicable law of the State of Delaware (“Preferred Stock Designation”) to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. Our board of directors is empowered to increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of preferred stock, but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding, without any further vote or action by our stockholders, unless required by the Preferred Stock Designation, irrespective of the provisions of the DGCL. Our board of directors is able to 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 our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company and might adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certain provisions of Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation, and our bylaws, which are summarized below, may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or discouraging another person from acquiring control of us. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors.

Section 203 of the DGCL

We are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. In general, Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:

In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include mergers, asset sales, and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to a stockholder and an “interested stockholder” as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or, within the prior three years, did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing changes in control of us.

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our board of directors or management team, including the following:

Dual Class Stock

As described above, our Class B common stock has nine votes per share, while our Class A common stock, which is the only class of our capital stock that is publicly traded, has one vote per share. As a result of this dual class structure, the Founders have an aggregate of ten votes per share of Class A common stock, which will provide the Founders significant influence over matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or other major corporate transaction.

Board of Directors Vacancies

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws authorize only a majority of the remaining members of our board of directors, although less than a quorum, to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. In addition, subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock to elect directors under specific circumstances, the number of directors constituting our board of directors will be permitted to be set only by a resolution of our board of directors. These provisions would prevent a stockholder from increasing the size

of our board of directors and then gaining control of our board of directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This will make it more difficult to change the composition of our board of directors and will promote continuity of management.

Classified Board

Our board of directors is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. This system of electing and removing directors may tend to 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.

Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that our stockholders may not take action by written consent but may only take action at a duly called annual or special meeting of the stockholders. As a result, a holder controlling a majority of the voting power of our capital stock would not be able to amend our bylaws, amend our certificate of incorporation or remove directors without holding a meeting of our stockholders called in accordance with our bylaws. Our bylaws further provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, our Chief Executive Officer or our President, thus prohibiting stockholder action to call a special meeting. These provisions might delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for stockholders controlling a majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

Our bylaws provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before the annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at the annual meeting of stockholders. Our bylaws also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before the annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at the annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. These provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

No Cumulative Voting

The DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting.

Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

Any amendment of our certificate of incorporation that requires stockholder approval pursuant to the DGCL requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of our then outstanding capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Our bylaws provide that the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of our then outstanding capital stock, voting together as a single class, is required for stockholders to alter, amend or repeal, or adopt any provision of our bylaws.

Issuance of Undesignated Preferred Stock

Our certificate of incorporation provides that our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by our board of directors. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock would enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, or other means.

Exclusive Forum

Our bylaws provide that, unless otherwise consented to by us in writing, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers, or other employees to us or our stockholders; (iii) any action arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in all cases subject to the court having jurisdiction over indispensable parties named as defendants. Our bylaws further provide that, unless otherwise consented to by us in writing, the federal district courts of the United States are the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, against any person in connection with any offering of our securities, including, without limitation and for the avoidance of doubt, any auditor, underwriter, expert, control person, or other defendant. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision. Nothing in this provision will apply to any action brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act. Stockholders cannot waive compliance (or consent to non-compliance) with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. These provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against us or our directors and officers.

Dissenters’ Rights of Appraisal and Payment

Under the DGCL, with certain exceptions, our stockholders have appraisal rights in connection with a merger or consolidation of us. Pursuant to the DGCL, stockholders who properly request and perfect appraisal rights in connection with such merger or consolidation will have the right to receive payment of the fair value of their shares as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery.

Registration Rights

The Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2021, by and between us, Six4 Holdings, LLC, Gilman Louie, Henry Crumpton, Jack Pearlstein, Robert Coleman, William Crowell, Peter Platzer, Theresa Condor, William Porteous and Stephen Messer provides that we are required to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, certain shares of Class A common stock and other equity securities that are held by the parties thereto from time to time, subject to the restrictions on transfer therein.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 12, 2025, by and between us and the purchasers named therein, we agreed to file, on or before April 30, 2025, a registration statement with the SEC for purposes of registering for resale 4,843,750 shares of our Class A common stock and the shares underlying pre-funded warrants to purchase 156,250 shares of our Class A common stock, which shares of Class A common stock and pre-funded warrants were issued and sold in a private placement that closed on March 14, 2025.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

The following table lists the costs and expenses payable by the Company in connection with the sale of the shares of Class A common stock covered by this prospectus. All amounts shown are estimates except for the SEC registration fee.

Section 145(a) of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party 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 the corporation), because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which he or she shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court shall deem proper.

Section 145(g) of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under Section 145 of the DGCL.

We entered into, and expect to continue to enter into, indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. These indemnification agreements may require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and executive officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service. These indemnification agreements shall also require us to advance all expenses reasonably and actually incurred by our directors and executive officers in investigating or defending any such action, suit or proceeding. The registrant believes that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract qualified directors and executive officers.

We also maintain standard policies of insurance that cover certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
