(1) An indeterminate number of shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock, depositary shares and warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares as the registrant may issue from time to time having an aggregate offering price not to exceed $150,000,000. The securities registered also include such indeterminate amounts and numbers of shares of common stock, preferred stock and depositary shares as may be issued upon conversion of, or exchange for, shares of preferred stock that provide for conversion or exchange, upon exercise of warrants or pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of any such securities. Securities registered hereunder may be sold either separately or as units comprised of more than one type of security registered hereunder.
(2) The proposed maximum aggregate offering price per class of security will be determined from time to time by the registrant in connection with the issuance by the registrant of the securities registered hereunder and is not specified as to each class of security pursuant to General Instruction II.D. of Form S-3 under the Securities Act.
(3) Each share of the registrant’s common stock being registered hereunder, if issued prior to the termination by the registrant of its Rights Agreement, dated August 2, 2001, as the same may be amended from time to time, includes Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock purchase rights. Prior to the occurrence of certain events, the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock purchase rights will not be exercisable or evidenced separately from the registrant’s common stock.
(4) Pursuant to Rule 415(a)(6) and Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant is offsetting the entire amount of the filing fee due hereunder by the amount of the filing fee that relates to $59,000,000 of securities of the registrant registered on the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-137874) filed by the registrant on October 6, 2006, which securities were not sold by the registrant. In accordance with Rule 415(a)(6), the offering of the unsold securities registered under the October 6, 2006 registration statement will be deemed terminated as of the effective date of this registration statement.
(5) Calculated in accordance with Rule 457(o) of the Securities Act of 1933.
The registrant hereby amends this registration statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this registration statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act, or until the registration statement shall become effective on such date as the Commission, acting pursuant to said Section 8(a), may determine.
The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. We may not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and it is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.

Securities We May Offer
We may offer any of the following securities with a total value of up to $150,000,000 from time to time under this prospectus at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of the offering:
· common stock;
· preferred stock, in one or more series;
· depositary shares;
· warrants to purchase shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock or depositary shares; or
· any combination of the foregoing securities.
We refer to our common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and warrants collectively in this prospectus as the “securities.” This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we offer a type or series of securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will describe the specific amounts, prices and other important terms of the securities, including, to the extent applicable:
· designation or classification;
· aggregate offering price;
· rates and times of payment of dividends, if any;
· redemption, conversion or sinking fund terms, if any;
· voting or other rights, if any;
· conversion prices, if any; and
· important federal income tax considerations.
Common Stock. We may offer shares of our common stock. Our common stock currently is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “ARRY.” Shares of common stock that may be offered in this offering will, when issued and paid for, be fully paid and non-assessable.
Preferred Stock. We may offer shares of our preferred stock, in one or more series. Our board of directors will determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock, including any dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of
1
shares constituting any series or the designation of any series. Convertible preferred stock will be convertible into shares of our common stock. Conversion may be mandatory or at your option and would be at prescribed conversion rates. Shares of preferred stock that may be offered in this offering will, when issued and paid for, be fully paid and non-assessable. The terms of the preferred stock we may offer under this prospectus and any prospectus supplement will be set forth in a certificate of designation relating to that series and will be incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. We urge you to read the complete certificate of designation containing the terms of the applicable series of preferred stock, as well as the applicable prospectus supplement related to such series.
Depositary Shares. We may from time to time issue receipts for depositary shares representing fractional shares of our preferred stock. Any depositary shares that we sell under this prospectus will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued under a deposit agreement between us and a depositary with whom we deposit the shares of the applicable series of preferred stock that underlie the depositary shares that are sold. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, each holder of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of the preferred stock underlying the depositary share, to all of the rights, preferences and privileges, and be subject to the qualifications and restrictions, of the preferred stock underlying that depositary share. We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of deposit agreement, including a form of depositary receipt, that describes the terms of any depositary shares that we are offering before the issuance of the related depositary shares. We urge you to read the prospectus supplements related to any depositary shares being offered, as well as the complete depositary agreement and depositary receipt that contains the terms of the depositary shares.
Warrants. We may issue warrants for the purchase of shares of our common stock or preferred stock or depositary shares in one or more series. Warrants may be issued independently or together with the securities offered by any prospectus supplement and may be attached to or separate from such securities. Further terms of the warrants will be set forth in warrant certificates issued under warrant agreements between us and an agent for the warrant holders, which we will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, as well as in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to such warrants. We urge you to read the prospectus supplements related to the series of warrants being offered, as well as the complete warrant agreements and warrant certificates that contain the terms of the applicable series of warrants.

Investment in our securities involves risks. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should consider carefully the risk factors, together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, including any additional specific risks described in the section entitled “RISK FACTORS” contained in any supplements to this prospectus and in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, as well as any amendments thereto reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Each of these risk factors could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, which may result in the loss of all or part of your investment.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains and incorporates by reference certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements that are not descriptions of historical facts are forward-looking statements, based on management’s estimates, assumptions and projections that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” or “anticipates” or similar terminology.
These statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and those described more fully in other reports filed by Array with the SEC. Because these statements reflect our current expectations concerning future events, our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to continue to fund and successfully progress internal research and development efforts and to create effective, commercially viable drugs; our ability to effectively and timely conduct clinical trials in light of increasing costs and difficulties in locating appropriate trial sites and in enrolling patients who meet the criteria for certain clinical trials; our ability to achieve and maintain profitability; the extent to which the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are willing to in-license drug candidates for their product pipelines and to collaborate with and fund third parties on their drug discovery activities; our ability to out-license our proprietary candidates on favorable terms; risks associated with our dependence on our collaborators for the clinical development and commercialization of our out-licensed drug candidates; the ability of our collaborators and of Array to meet objectives tied to milestones and royalties; our ability to attract and retain experienced scientists, and management; and the risk factors set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and any amendments thereto we file with the SEC, and in any supplements to this prospectus. The forward-looking statements contained herein represent our judgment as of the date of this prospectus. We undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements or of anticipated or unanticipated events that alter any assumptions underlying such statements.
Except as described in any prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of our securities to fund our research and development efforts and for general corporate purposes, including working capital. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in businesses or technologies that are complementary to our business, although we have no present commitments or agreements to do so. Pending these uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities.
The following description of our capital stock and material provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws is only a summary. The description is qualified in its entirety by the complete provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-1 (file no. 333-45922) filed with the SEC on September 15, 2000, and the amendment thereto filed as an exhibit to the current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 6, 2007 (File No. 001-16633), and our amended and restated bylaws, which have been filed as an exhibit to the current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 4, 2008 (File No. 001-16633). Our amended and
3
restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 120,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of November 6, 2008, 47,587,792 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.
Listing
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market and traded under the symbol “ARRY.”
Transfer Agent and Registrar
American Stock Transfer and Trust Company is our transfer agent and registrar.
Common Stock
Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. Holders of common stock are not entitled to cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any preferred stock outstanding at the time, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratable dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock would be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after the payment of liabilities and liquidation preferences on any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are, and shares of common stock offered by us in this offering, when issued and paid for, will be, fully paid and nonassessable.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors is authorized, without stockholder approval, to issue up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. The board of directors can fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series of the designation of such series, without further vote or action by the stockholders.
We will fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock of each series in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will incorporate by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement that includes this prospectus or as an exhibit to a current report on Form 8-K, the form of any certificate of designation that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering before the issuance of the related series of preferred stock. We urge you to read the complete certificate of designation containing the terms of the applicable series of preferred stock, as well as the applicable prospectus supplement related to such series. The certificate of designation will include:
· the title and stated value; the number of shares we are offering;
· the liquidation preference per share;
· the purchase price;
· the dividend rate, period and payment date and method of calculation for dividends;
· whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate;
· the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any;
4
· the provisions for a sinking fund, if any;
· the provisions for redemption or repurchase, if applicable, and any restrictions on our ability to exercise those redemption and repurchase rights;
· any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or market;
· whether the preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock, and, if applicable, the conversion price, or how it will be calculated, and the conversion period;
· voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;
· preemption rights, if any;
· restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;
· whether interests in the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares;
· a discussion of any material or special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock;
· the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs;
· any limitations on issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and
· any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of, or restrictions on, the preferred stock.
If we issue shares of preferred stock under this prospectus, the shares will be fully paid and non-assessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights.
The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the state of our incorporation, provides that the holders of preferred stock will have the right to vote separately as a class on any proposed fundamental change in the rights of the preferred stock. This right is in addition to any voting rights that may be provided for in the applicable certificate of designation.
We may amend from time to time our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of preferred stock. Any such amendment would require the approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote thereon.
Future issuances of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control or make removal of our management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of the common stock or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could also cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
Registration Rights
Prior to our initial public offering and in connection with the sale and issuance of our Series A preferred stock in May 1998, and August 1998, our Series B preferred stock in November 1999, and our Series C preferred stock in August 2000, we entered into an agreement with the investors in such financings providing for registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock, including those issuable upon conversion of each series of preferred stock, held and subsequently acquired by these investors. Currently, 2.5 million shares of our common stock are
5
entitled to registration rights pursuant to terms and conditions of this agreement. The registration rights under this agreement allow the holders of at least 30% of the shares of common stock held by such holders then outstanding to require us to register their shares under the Securities Act on up to two occasions, subject to limitations described in the agreement. In addition, these holders can require us to include their shares in future registrations of our shares for our account or the account of another stockholder. These holders may also require us to register their shares on up to two occasions in any calendar year on Form S-3. These registration rights are subject to limitations and conditions, including the right of underwriters to limit the number of shares of common stock held by existing stockholders to be included in a registration. The registration rights as to any holder will terminate when all securities held by the holder entitled to registration rights can be sold within a three-month period under Rule 144 of the Securities Act and when the number of shares held by the holder is less than 1% of our outstanding capital stock on an as converted to common stock basis. In addition, we are generally required to bear all expenses of registration, including the reasonable fees of a single counsel acting on behalf of all selling stockholders, except underwriting discounts and selling commissions.
In connection with a Facility Agreement entered into as of April 29, 2008 between Array and Deerfield Private Design Fund, L.P. and Deerfield Private Design International, L.P., healthcare investment funds, who we collectively refer to as the Deerfield Funds, we issued warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Deerfield Funds and entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated April 29, 2008 with the Deerfield Funds. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC on or prior to 30 days from the date the warrants were issued requiring us to register the resale of the shares of the common stock subject to issuance upon the exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act of 1933. On May 29, 2008, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 registering the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, which the SEC declared effective as of June 10, 2008. We are generally required to bear all expenses of registration, including the reasonable fees of a single counsel acting on behalf of all selling stockholders, except underwriting discounts and selling commissions.
Registration of any shares with registration rights would result in those shares becoming freely tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act. Sales of these shares, whether pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a an effective registration statement, could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock.
Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers
As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that our directors are not personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:
· for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
· for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
· under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, relating to unlawful dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions; or
· for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit.
As a result of this provision, we and our stockholders may be unable to obtain monetary damages from a director for breach of his or her duty of care.
Indemnification
Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law. We will indemnify a director or officer in connection with an action initiated by that person if the action was authorized by our board of directors. The indemnification provided under our
6
bylaws includes the right to be paid expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding for which indemnification may be had if the director or officer agrees to repay all amounts paid in advance if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified. Under our bylaws, if we do not pay a claim for indemnification within 60 days after we have received a written claim, the director or officer may bring an action to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful, the director or officer also will be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting the action to recover these unpaid amounts.
Our bylaws also authorize us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was one of our directors, officers, employees or agents, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee, partner or agent of another corporation or other entity or enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person or incurred by the person in any of these capacities, or arising out of the person’s fulfilling one of these capacities, and related expenses. We may obtain this insurance whether or not we would have the power to indemnify the person against the claim under the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. We have purchased director and officer liability insurance on behalf of our directors and officers. The indemnification provisions under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws are not exclusive of any other rights to indemnification under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain some provisions that are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by our board of directors. In addition, provisions of Delaware law may hinder or delay an attempted takeover of us other than through negotiation with our board of directors. These provisions could have the effect of discouraging attempts to acquire us or remove incumbent management even if some or a majority of our stockholders believe this action is in their best interest, including attempts that might result in the stockholders receiving a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock they hold.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for the division of our board of directors into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation further provides that the approval of the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote is necessary for the alteration, amendment or repeal of sections of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation relating to the election and classification of our board of directors, limitation of director liability, indemnification and the vote requirements for these amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. These provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that directors may be removed only with cause upon the affirmative vote of holders representing two-thirds of our outstanding shares. In addition, vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the size of the board of directors may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if they do not constitute a quorum, or by the sole remaining director. These provisions would prevent stockholders from removing incumbent directors without cause and filling the resulting vacancies with their own nominees.
Our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure with regard to the nomination, other than by the board of directors, of candidates for election to the board of directors and with regard to matters to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders by a stockholder. The stockholder’s notice must contain specified information regarding the stockholder and its holdings, as well as about the director nominee and any business desired to be brought before the meeting. Although our bylaws do not give our board of directors any power to approve or
7
disapprove stockholder nominations for the election of directors or any other business desired by stockholders to be conducted at an annual meeting, the bylaws:
· may have the effect of precluding a nomination for the election of directors or precluding the conduct of business at a particular annual meeting if the proper procedures are not followed; or
· may discourage or deter a third party from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, even if the conduct of this solicitation or the attempt to obtain control might be beneficial to us and our stockholders.
Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, special meetings of stockholders, unless otherwise prescribed by statute, may be called only by the board of directors, the chairperson, or the chief executive officer.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that any action required or permitted to be taken at a stockholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting only by unanimous written consent.
Under Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, we may not engage in a “business combination,” which includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets, with any “interested stockholder,” namely, a stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, as well as affiliates and associates of any of these persons, for three years following the time that stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless:
· the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder is approved by our board of directors prior to the time the interested stockholder attained that status;
· upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding those shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers; or
· at or after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
The authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for the board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of our company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our company.
Rights Plan
On August 2, 2001, our board of directors adopted a Rights Agreement, pursuant to which all stockholders of record as of August 27, 2001 received rights to purchase shares of a newly created series of preferred stock. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us one-one hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $70.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The rights will become exercisable 10 business days after announcement that a person or group has acquired or obtained the right to acquire 15% or more of our outstanding common stock or 10 business days after commencement or announcement of a tender or exchange offer for 15% or more of our outstanding common stock. If a person or group acquires 15% or more of our
8
outstanding common stock, all rights holders, except the acquiring person or group, will be entitled to acquire our common stock at a discount. In the event that we are acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction in which we are not the surviving corporation, or 50% or more of our assets or earning power is sold or transferred to a person or group who has acquired 15% or more of our outstanding capital stock, proper provision will be made so that each such holder of a right will have the right to receive, upon exercise of the right, shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of the transaction will have a market value of two times the exercise price of the right.
Our board of directors may terminate the rights plan at any time, amend the rights plan without the approval of any holders of the rights or redeem the rights within 10 business days of the date a person or group acquires 15% or more of our outstanding capital stock. The rights expire on August 2, 2011.
The form of Rights Agreement specifying the terms of the rights, which includes the form of Certificate of Designation of the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, the Summary of Rights to Purchase Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and the form of Rights Certificate, is attached as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed by Array with the SEC on August 3, 2001. The foregoing description of the rights is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Rights Agreement.
DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES
We may offer fractional shares of preferred stock rather than full shares of preferred stock, and, in that event, will issue receipts for depositary shares. Each of these depositary shares will represent a fraction, which will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, of a share of the applicable series of preferred stock.
The shares of any series of preferred stock underlying any depositary shares that we may sell under this prospectus will be deposited under a deposit agreement between us and a depositary selected by us. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, each holder of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of the preferred stock underlying the depositary share, to all of the rights, preferences and privileges, and be subject to the qualifications and restrictions, of the preferred stock underlying that depositary share.
The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued under a deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to the holders of the depositary shares that are sold in the applicable offering. We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of any deposit agreement, including a form of depositary receipt, that describes the terms of any depositary shares we are offering before the issuance of the related depositary shares. The following summaries of material provisions of the deposit agreement, the depositary shares and the depositary receipts are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the deposit agreement applicable to a particular offering of depositary shares. We urge you to read the prospectus supplements relating to any depositary shares that are sold under this prospectus, as well as the complete deposit agreement and depositary receipt.
9
Form
Pending the preparation of definitive depositary receipts, the depositary may, upon our written order, issue temporary depositary receipts substantially identical to the definitive depositary receipts but not in definitive form. These temporary depositary receipts entitle their holders to all of the rights of definitive depositary receipts. Temporary depositary receipts will then be exchangeable for definitive depositary receipts at our expense.
Dividends and Other Distributions
The depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received with respect to the underlying preferred stock to the record holders of depositary shares in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by those holders.
If there is a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to the record holders of depositary shares in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by those holders, unless the depositary determines that it is not feasible to do so. If this occurs, the depositary may, with our approval, sell the property and distribute the net proceeds from the sale to those holders in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by them.
Withdrawal of Underlying Preferred Stock
Except as otherwise provided in a prospectus supplement, holders may surrender depositary receipts at the principal office of the depositary and, upon payment of any unpaid amount due to the depositary, be entitled to receive the number of whole shares of underlying preferred stock and all money and other property represented by the related depositary shares. We will not issue any partial shares of preferred stock. If the holder delivers depositary receipts evidencing a number of depositary shares that represent more than a whole number of shares of preferred stock, the depositary will issue a new depositary receipt evidencing the excess number of depositary shares to the holder.
Redemption of Depositary Shares
If the preferred stock underlying any depositary shares we may sell under this prospectus is subject to redemption, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the depositary resulting from any such redemption, in whole or in part, of that underlying preferred stock. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable with respect to the underlying preferred stock. Whenever we redeem shares of underlying preferred stock that are held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of depositary shares representing the shares of underlying preferred stock so redeemed. If fewer than all of the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or proportionately, as may be determined by the depositary.
Voting
Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which holders of the preferred stock underlying any depositary shares that we may sell under this prospectus are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the depositary shares. Each record holder of the depositary shares on the record date, which will be the same date as the record date for the underlying preferred stock, will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of the underlying preferred stock represented by the holder’s depositary shares. The depositary will then try, as far as practicable, to vote the number of shares of preferred stock underlying those depositary shares in accordance with those instructions, and we will agree to take all reasonable actions which may be deemed necessary by the depositary to enable the depositary to do so. The depositary will not vote the underlying preferred stock to the extent it does not receive specific instructions with respect to the depositary shares representing such preferred stock.
10
Conversion of Preferred Stock
If the prospectus supplement relating to any depositary shares that we may sell under this prospectus states that the underlying preferred stock is convertible into our common stock or other securities, the following will apply. The depositary shares, as such, will not be convertible into any of our securities. Rather, any holder of the depositary shares may surrender the related depositary receipts to the depositary with written instructions that direct us to cause conversion of the preferred stock represented by the depositary shares into or for whole shares of our common stock or other securities, as applicable. Upon receipt of those instructions and any amounts payable by the holder in connection with the conversion, we will cause the conversion using the same procedures as those provided for conversion of the underlying preferred stock. If only some of a holder’s depositary shares are converted, a new depositary receipt or receipts will be issued to the holder for any depositary shares not converted.
Amendment and Termination of the Deposit Agreement
The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares and any provision of the deposit agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between us and the depositary. However, any amendment which materially and adversely alters the rights of the holders of depositary shares will not be effective until 90 days after notice of that amendment has been given to the holders. Each holder of depositary shares at the time any amendment becomes effective shall be deemed to consent and agree to that amendment and to be bound by the deposit agreement as so amended. The deposit agreement may be terminated by us or by the depositary only if all outstanding depositary shares have been redeemed or converted into any other securities into which the underlying preferred stock is convertible or there has been a final distribution, including to holders of depositary receipts, of the underlying preferred stock in connection with our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Charges of Depositary
We will pay all charges of the depositary, except for taxes and governmental charges and other charges as are expressly provided for in the deposit agreement to be for the account of the holders of depositary shares or persons other than ourselves who may deposit any underlying preferred stock with the depositary.
Reports
The depositary will forward to holders of depositary receipts all notices and reports from us that we deliver to the depositary and that we are required to furnish to the holders of the underlying preferred stock.
Limitation on Liability
Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if either of us is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstance beyond our control in performing our respective obligations under the deposit agreement. Our obligations and those of the depositary will be limited to performance of our respective duties under the deposit agreement without, in our case, negligence or bad faith or, in the case of the depositary, negligence or willful misconduct. We and the depositary may rely upon advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by persons presenting the underlying preferred stock for deposit, holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed by us in good faith to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.
Resignation and Removal of Depositary
The depositary may resign at any time by delivering notice to us of its election to resign. We may remove the depositary at any time. Any resignation or removal will take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of the appointment. The successor depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.
11
General
The following description, together with the additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer under this prospectus and the related warrant agreements and warrant certificates. While the terms summarized below will apply generally to any warrants we may offer, we will describe the particular terms of any series of warrants in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The form for each type of warrant will be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
We may issue, together with other securities or separately, warrants to purchase preferred stock or common stock. We will issue the warrants under warrant agreements to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent, all as shall be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants of the series being offered and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders or beneficial owners of warrants.
Further terms of the warrants will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, including, where applicable, the following:
· the title of such warrants;
· the aggregate number of warrants;
· the price or prices at which the warrants will be issued;
· the designation, terms and number of shares of common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares purchasable upon exercise of the warrants;
· the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with such securities;
· the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable, including any limitations on ownership and transfer of the warrants;
· in the case of warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares, the price at which each share of common stock, preferred stock or depositary share purchasable upon exercise of the warrants may be purchased;
· any provisions for adjustment of the number or amount of securities receivable upon exercise of the warrants;
· the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants shall commence and expire;
· the minimum or maximum amount of warrants that may be exercised at any one time;
· information with respect to book-entry procedures, if any;
· a discussion of certain federal income tax consequences; and
· any other terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of the warrants.
12
Before exercising their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon such exercise, including in the case of warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares, the right to receive dividends, if any, or payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up or to exercise voting rights, if any.
Exercise of Warrants
Each warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase for cash the securities at the exercise price as shall in each case be set forth in, or be determinable as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.
Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required amount to the warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth on the reverse side of the warrant certificate and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.
Warrants may be exercised as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to the warrants offered thereby. Upon receipt of payment of the exercise price and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will, as soon as practicable, forward the purchased securities. If less than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender securities as all or part of the exercise price for warrants.
13
Enforceability of Rights of Holders of Warrants
Each warrant agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as a warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may, without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action its right to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, that holder’s warrants.
Outstanding Warrants
As of November 5, 2008, there were outstanding warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.54 per share. The warrants expire April 29, 2016, unless earlier exercised. The warrants are not exercisable to the extent such exercise would cause the holder thereof to beneficially own more than 9.98% of our outstanding capital stock. Such warrants were filed as an exhibit to our current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 5, 2008 (file no. 001-16633).
We can issue securities in registered form or in the form of one or more global securities. We describe global securities in greater detail below. We refer to those persons who have securities registered in their own names on the books that we or any applicable trustee, depositary or warrant agent maintain for this purpose as the “holders” of those securities. These persons are the legal holders of the securities. We refer to those persons who, indirectly through others, own beneficial interests in securities that are not registered in their own names, as “indirect holders” of those securities. As we discuss below, indirect holders are not legal holders, and investors in securities issued in book-entry form or in street name will be indirect holders.
Book-Entry Holders
We may issue securities in book-entry form only, as we will specify in the applicable prospectus supplement. This means securities may be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a financial institution that holds them as depositary on behalf of other financial institutions that participate in the depositary’s book-entry system. These participating institutions, which are referred to as participants, in turn, hold beneficial interests in the securities on behalf of themselves or their customers.
Only the person in whose name a security is registered is recognized as the holder of that security. Securities issued in global form will be registered in the name of the depositary or its participants. Consequently, for securities issued in global form, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the securities, and we will make all payments on the securities to the depositary. The depositary passes along the payments it receives to its participants, which in turn pass the payments along to their customers who are the beneficial owners. The depositary and its participants do so under agreements they have made with one another or with their customers; they are not obligated to do so under the terms of the securities.
As a result, investors in a book-entry security will not own securities directly. Instead, they will own beneficial interests in a global security, through a bank, broker or other financial institution that participates in the depositary’s book-entry system or holds an interest through a participant. As long as the securities are issued in global form, investors will be indirect holders, and not holders, of the securities.
14
Street Name Holders
We may terminate a global security or issue securities in non-global form. In these cases, investors may choose to hold their securities in their own names or in “street name.” Securities held by an investor in street name would be registered in the name of a bank, broker or other financial institution that the investor chooses, and the investor would hold only a beneficial interest in those securities through an account he or she maintains at that institution.
For securities held in street name, we will recognize only the intermediary banks, brokers and other financial institutions in whose names the securities are registered as the holders of those securities, and we will make all payments on those securities to them. These institutions pass along the payments they receive to their customers who are the beneficial owners, but only because they agree to do so in their customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. Investors who hold securities in street name will be indirect holders, not holders, of those securities.
Legal Holders
Our obligations, as well as the obligations of any applicable trustee and of any third parties employed by us or a trustee, run only to the legal holders of the securities. We do not have obligations to investors who hold beneficial interests in global securities, in street name or by any other indirect means. This will be the case whether an investor chooses to be an indirect holder of a security or has no choice because we are issuing the securities only in global form.
For example, once we make a payment or give a notice to the holder, we have no further responsibility for the payment or notice even if that holder is required, under agreements with depositary participants or customers or by law, to pass it along to the indirect holders but does not do so. Similarly, we may want to obtain the approval of the holders to amend an indenture, to relieve us of the consequences of a default or of our obligation to comply with a particular provision of the indenture or for other purposes. In such an event, we would seek approval only from the holders, and not the indirect holders, of the securities. Whether and how the holders contact the indirect holders is up to the holders.
Special Considerations For Indirect Holders
If you hold securities through a bank, broker or other financial institution, either in book-entry form or in street name, you should check with your own institution to find out:
· how it handles securities payments and notices;
· whether it imposes fees or charges;
· how it would handle a request for the holders’ consent, if ever required;
· whether and how you can instruct it to send you securities registered in your own name so you can be a holder, if that is permitted in the future;
· how it would exercise rights under the securities if there were a default or other event triggering the need for holders to act to protect their interests; and
· if the securities are in book-entry form, how the depositary’s rules and procedures will affect these matters.
15
Global Securities
A global security is a security that represents one or any other number of individual securities held by a depositary. Generally, all securities represented by the same global securities will have the same terms.
Each security issued in book-entry form will be represented by a global security that we deposit with and register in the name of a financial institution or its nominee that we select. The financial institution that we select for this purpose is called the depositary. Unless we specify otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, The Depositary Trust Company, New York, New York, known as DTC, will be the depositary for all securities issued in book-entry form.
A global security may not be transferred to or registered in the name of anyone other than the depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, unless special termination situations arise. We describe those situations below under “Special Situations When a Global Security Will Be Terminated.” As a result of these arrangements, the depositary, or its nominee, will be the sole registered owner and holder of all securities represented by a global security, and investors will be permitted to own only beneficial interests in a global security. Beneficial interests must be held by means of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the depositary or with another institution that does. Thus, an investor whose security is represented by a global security will not be a holder of the security, but only an indirect holder of a beneficial interest in the global security.
If the prospectus supplement for a particular security indicates that the security will be issued in global form only, then the security will be represented by a global security at all times unless and until the global security is terminated. If termination occurs, we may issue the securities through another book-entry clearing system or decide that the securities may no longer be held through any book-entry clearing system.
Special Considerations For Global Securities
As an indirect holder, an investor’s rights relating to a global security will be governed by the account rules of the investor’s financial institution and of the depositary, as well as general laws relating to securities transfers. We do not recognize an indirect holder as a holder of securities and instead deal only with the depositary that holds the global security.
If securities are issued only in the form of a global security, an investor should be aware of the following:
· An investor cannot cause the securities to be registered in his or her name, and cannot obtain non-global certificates for his or her interest in the securities, except in the special situations we describe below;
· An investor will be an indirect holder and must look to his or her own bank or broker for payments on the securities and protection of his or her legal rights relating to the securities, as we describe above;
· An investor may not be able to sell interests in the securities to some insurance companies and to other institutions that are required by law to own their securities in non-book-entry form;
· An investor may not be able to pledge his or her interest in a global security in circumstances where certificates representing the securities must be delivered to the lender or other beneficiary of the pledge in order for the pledge to be effective;
· The depositary’s policies, which may change from time to time, will govern payments, transfers, exchanges and other matters relating to an investor’s interest in a global security. We and any applicable trustee have no responsibility for any aspect of the depositary’s actions or for its records of ownership interests in a global security. We and the trustee also do not supervise the depositary in any way;
· The depositary may, and we understand that DTC will, require that those who purchase and sell interests in a global security within its book-entry system use immediately available funds, and your broker or bank may require you to do so as well; and
16
· Financial institutions that participate in the depositary’s book-entry system, and through which an investor holds its interest in a global security, may also have their own policies affecting payments, notices and other matters relating to the securities. There may be more than one financial intermediary in the chain of ownership for an investor. We do not monitor and are not responsible for the actions of any of those intermediaries.
Special Situations When A Global Security Will Be Terminated
In a few special situations described below, the global security will terminate and interests in it will be exchanged for physical certificates representing those interests. After that exchange, the choice of whether to hold securities directly or in street name will be up to the investor. Investors must consult their own banks or brokers to find out how to have their interests in securities transferred to their own name, so that they will be direct holders. We have described the rights of holders and street name investors above.
The global security will terminate when the following special situations occur:
· if the depositary notifies us that it is unwilling, unable or no longer qualified to continue as depositary for that global security and we do not appoint another institution to act as depositary within 90 days;
· if we notify any applicable trustee that we wish to terminate that global security; or
· if an event of default has occurred with regard to securities represented by that global security and has not been cured or waived.
The prospectus supplement may also list additional situations for terminating a global security that would apply only to the particular series of securities covered by the prospectus supplement. When a global security terminates, the depositary, and not we or any applicable trustee, is responsible for deciding the names of the institutions that will be the initial direct holders.
We may sell the securities being offered by this prospectus separately or together through any of the following methods:
· directly to purchasers;
· through agents;
· to or through one or more underwriters or dealers;
· through a block trade in which the broker or dealer engaged to handle the block trade will attempt to sell the securities as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; and
· through a combination of any of these methods of sale.
We may effect the distribution of the securities from time to time in one or more transactions:
· at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;
· at market prices prevailing at the times of sale;
· at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or
17
· at negotiated prices.
Each time we offer a type or series of securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will describe the specific amounts, prices and other important terms of the securities, as described above under “SUMMARY — Securities We May Offer.”
Agents. We may solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and set forth any commissions payable by us to an agent in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of his or her appointment. Any agent may be deemed to be an “underwriter” of the securities as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).
Underwriters. If we use an underwriter or underwriters in the sale of securities, we will execute an underwriting agreement with the underwriter or underwriters at the time we reach an agreement for sale. The underwriter or underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of an underwriter or underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. We will set forth in the prospectus supplement the names of the specific managing underwriter or underwriters, as well as any other underwriters, and the terms of the transactions, including compensation of the underwriters and dealers. This compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. We may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. Underwriters and others participating in any offering of the securities may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities. We will describe any such relationship and any of these activities in the prospectus supplement.
Dealers. If a dealer is used in the sale of the securities, an underwriter or we will sell securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. The prospectus supplement will set forth the name of the dealer and the terms of the transactions.
Direct Sales. We may directly solicit offers to purchase the securities, and we may sell directly to institutional investors or others. These persons may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any resale of the securities. The prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any direct sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process.
Indemnification. Agreements we enter into with agents, underwriters and dealers may entitle them to indemnification by us against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution by us to payments they may be required to make in respect of these liabilities. The prospectus supplement will describe the terms and conditions of indemnification or contribution.
Delayed Delivery Contracts. We may authorize underwriters, dealers and agents to solicit offers by certain institutional investors to purchase offered securities under contracts providing for payment and delivery on a future date specified in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also describe the public offering price for the securities and the commission payable for solicitation of these delayed delivery contracts. Delayed delivery contracts will contain definite fixed price and quantity terms. The obligations of a purchaser under these delayed delivery contracts will be subject to only two conditions:
· that the institution’s purchase of the securities at the time of delivery of the securities is not prohibited under the law of any jurisdiction to which the institution is subject; and
· that we shall have sold to the underwriters the total principal amount of the offered securities, less the principal amount covered by the delayed delivery contracts.
Stabilization Activities. To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), in connection with an offering an underwriter may engage in over-
18
allotments, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids. Over-allotments involve sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be otherwise. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of these activities at any time.
Passive Market Making. To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, any underwriters who are qualified market makers on the Nasdaq Global Market may engage in passive market making transactions in the securities on the Nasdaq Global Market during the business day prior to the pricing of an offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of the securities. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.
Trading Markets and Listing. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each class or series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than our common stock, which is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. We may elect to list any other class or series of securities on any exchange, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a class or series of securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for any of the securities we may offer under this prospectus.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR
SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

ITEM 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Bylaws of the registrant provide for the indemnification of the registrant’s directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by, and subject to the conditions set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), except that the registrant will indemnify a director or officer in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the person only if the proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the registrant’s Board of Directors. The indemnification provided under the Bylaws includes the right to be paid by the registrant, the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) for any proceeding for which indemnification may be had in advance of its final disposition, provided that the payment of those expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding may be made only upon delivery to the registrant of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay all amounts so paid in advance if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified. Under the Bylaws of the registrant, if the registrant does not pay a claim for indemnification within 60 days after it has received a written claim, the director or officer may bring an action to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful, the director or officer also will be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting the action to recover these unpaid amounts.
As permitted by the DGCL, the registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors of the registrant shall not be liable to the registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the registrant or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, relating to unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchase or redemption or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. As a result of this provision, the registrant and its stockholders may be unable to obtain monetary damages from a director for breach of his or her duty of care.
Under the Bylaws, the registrant has the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, employee, partner or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person or incurred by the person in that capacity, or arising out of the person’s fulfilling one of these capacities, and related expenses, whether or not the registrant would have the power to indemnify the person against the claim under the provisions of the DGCL. The registrant has in force as of date of this offering director and officer liability insurance on behalf of its directors and officers in the amount of $20 million, plus additional “Side A” coverage for its directors and officers.
II-1
If we offer the securities in an underwritten offering, the Underwriting Agreement (to be filed as Exhibit 1.1) will provide that any underwriters of the registrant, under specified circumstances, will indemnify the registrant’s directors, officers and controlling persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 17. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
A. Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3)shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
B. Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the
II-3
registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supplement the prospectus, after the expiration of the subscription period, to set forth the results of the subscription offer, the transactions by the underwriters during the subscription period, the amount of unsubscribed securities to be purchased by the underwriters, and the terms of any subsequent reoffering thereof. If any public offering by the underwriters is to be made on terms differing from those set forth on the cover page of the prospectus, a post-effective amendment will be filed to set forth the terms of such offering.
(d) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(e) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
II-4
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(f) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Act.
II-5
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Boulder, the State of Colorado, on November 7, 2008.
