THE COMPANY

References made in this prospectus to “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to General Moly, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary Eureka Moly, LLC.

We are a development stage company in the business of the exploration, development and mining of properties primarily containing molybdenum.  Our primary asset is an 80% interest in the Mt. Hope Project, a primary molybdenum property, located in Eureka County, Nevada (“Mt. Hope Project”).  The Mt. Hope Project contains proven and probable molybdenum reserves totaling 1.4 billion pounds (1.1 billion pounds owned by the Company) of which 1.2 billion pounds (1.0 billion pounds owned by the Company) are estimated to be recoverable.  We received federal and state of Nevada regulatory approvals in November 2012 and are in the process of obtaining project financing for the Mt. Hope Project.  The cash needs for the development of the Mt. Hope Project are significant and require that we and/or Eureka Moly, LLC arrange for financing to be combined with funds anticipated to be received from POS-Minerals Corporation in order to retain its 20% membership interest.  If we are unsuccessful in obtaining financing, we will not be able to proceed with the development of the Mt. Hope Project.

The Company continues its efforts to obtain full financing of the fully permitted, construction-ready Mt. Hope Project. We are maintaining dialogue with potential strategic partners with whom we have continuing discussions.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the financing required to complete the Mt. Hope Project, or in raising additional financing in the future on terms acceptable to us, or at all.  Further, we do not have an estimated timeframe for finalizing any financing agreements.

Potential funding sources include public or private equity offerings, arranging for use of restricted cash, or sale of non-core assets owned by the Company.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in securing additional funding.  This could result in further cost reductions, contract cancellations, and potential delays which ultimately may jeopardize the development of the Mt. Hope Project.

In 2006, we acquired a second significant molybdenum and copper project, the Liberty Project, located in Nye County, Nevada (“Liberty Project”), which we wholly own.  The Liberty Property is anticipated to become our second mining operation, after commencement of commercial production at the Mt. Hope Project, with initial production dependent on market conditions.

We were in the exploration stage from January 1, 2002 until October 4, 2007, when our Board of Directors (“Board”) approved the development of the Mt. Hope Project.  The Company is now in the development stage and is in the process of obtaining financing for the development of the Mt. Hope Project.

We are also conducting exploration and evaluation activities on the Liberty Project.  On April 8, 2014, we announced the initiation of a National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administration (“NI 43-101”) compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on a starter pit project at the Liberty Project.  On July 7, 2014, we announced the elevation of the PEA to a Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”) prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.  On July 24, 2014, we announced the completion of the updated PFS.  This PFS estimates production, capital, operating cost, and economic analysis for this more capital efficient project when compared to earlier studies.  A technical report prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 was filed on July 30, 2014.

The Company was initially incorporated in Idaho under the name “General Mines Corporation” in 1925.  We have gone through a couple of name changes and on October 5, 2007, we reincorporated the Company in the State of Delaware through a merger of Idaho General Mines, Inc. with and into General Moly, Inc., a Delaware corporation that was a wholly owned subsidiary of Idaho General Mines, Inc. with General Moly being the surviving entity.  For purposes of the Company’s reporting status with the SEC, General Moly is deemed a successor to Idaho General Mines, Inc.  Our common stock is traded on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “GMO” and, in February 2008, the Company began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the same symbol.  Our registered and

RISK FACTORS

Before you invest in any of our securities, in addition to the other information in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, you should carefully consider the risk factors under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, as the same may be updated from time to time by our future filings under the Exchange Act.

Our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity or prospects could be adversely affected by any of these risks.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of securities by selling stockholders.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid dividends on our common stock and we do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.  We will pay dividends on our common stock only if and when declared by our Board.  Our Board’s ability to declare a dividend is subject to limits imposed by Delaware corporate law.  In determining whether to declare dividends, the Board will consider these limits, our financial condition, results of operations, working capital requirements, future prospects and other factors it considers relevant.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Our authorized share capital consists of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. As of March 5, 2015, there were 93,088,979 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.  All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

The following summary of our capital stock is qualified in its entirety by the description of our common stock contained in our registration statement on Form 8-A/A filed with the SEC on October 10, 2007, including all

Table of Contents

amendments or reports filed for the purpose of updating such descriptions, and to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as amended from time to time, all of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.  See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Common Stock

All shares of our common stock are equal with respect to voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights. Owners of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share owned at any meeting of the stockholders.  Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our Board out of funds legally available therefor; and upon liquidation, are entitled to participate pro rata in a distribution of assets available for such a distribution to stockholders, subject to the prior claims of holders of any outstanding preferred stock.  Our common stock does not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the common stock voting in an election of directors may elect all of the directors to be elected at any meeting of stockholders, if they choose to do so.  In such event, the holders of the remaining common stock aggregating less than 50% would not be able to elect any directors.  As permitted by Delaware law, our Bylaws provide for staggering the terms of directors by dividing the total number of directors into three groups.  We have not paid cash dividends with respect to our common stock in the past and do not anticipate paying any such dividends in the foreseeable future.  None of our outstanding shares of common stock are liable to calls or assessment by us.

Preferred Stock

We may issue shares of our preferred stock from time to time, in one or more series.  Under our certificate of incorporation, we are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our preferred stock is entitled to preference over our common stock with respect to the distribution of our assets in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the company.  Our preferred stock may be issued from time to time and our Board shall have the right to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the preferred stock.  As of March 5, 2015, we do not have any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and reduce the likelihood that common stockholders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation.  The issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.  The issuance of preferred stock also could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our company.

Our Board will fix the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications and restrictions of the preferred stock of each series that we issue in the certificate of designation relating to that series.  We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of any certificate of designation that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock to be offered under this prospectus.  This description of the preferred stock in the certificate of designation and any applicable prospectus supplement will include:

·                  the title and stated value;

·                  the number of shares being offered;

·                  the liquidation preference per share;

·                  the purchase price per share;

·                  the currency for which the shares may be purchased;

·                  the dividend rate per share, dividend period and payment dates and method of calculation for dividends;

·                  whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate;

Table of Contents

·                  our right, if any, to defer payment of dividends and the maximum length of any such deferral period;

·                  the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any;

·                  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 or other securities of ours, including warrants, and, if applicable, the conversion period, the conversion price, or how it will be calculated, and under what circumstances it may be adjusted;

·                  whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the exchange period, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and under what circumstances it may be adjusted;

·                  voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;

·                  preemption rights, if any;

·                  restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;

·                  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 issuances of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock being issued as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and

·                  any other specific terms, rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications or restrictions of the preferred stock.

When we issue shares of preferred stock, the shares will be fully paid and non-assessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights.

Certain Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law contain provisions that may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of the company.  These provisions, among other things:

·                  provide for staggering the terms of directors by dividing the total number of directors into three groups;

·                  authorize our Board to set the terms of preferred stock;

·                  restrict our ability to engage in transactions with stockholders with 15% or more of outstanding voting stock;

7

Table of Contents

·                  authorize the calling of special meetings of stockholders only by the Board, not by the stockholders;

·                  limit the business transacted at any meeting of stockholders to those purposes specifically stated in the notice of the meeting; and

·                  prohibit stockholder action by written consent without a meeting and provide that directors may be removed only at a meeting of stockholders.

Because of these provisions, persons considering unsolicited tender offers or other unilateral takeover proposals may be more likely to negotiate with our Board rather than pursue non-negotiated takeover attempts.  As a result, these provisions may make it more difficult for our stockholders to benefit from transactions that are opposed by an incumbent Board.

Warrants

On December 26, 2014, we issued warrants to purchase 8,535,000 shares of our common stock, which are exercisable at $1.00 per share beginning on June 26, 2015 and will expire on December 26, 2019.  We are registering under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the resale of the 8,535,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of these warrants.

As of March 5, 2015, we also had outstanding warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock, which are exercisable at $5.00 per share once we have received financing necessary for the commencement of commercial production at the Mt. Hope Project and will expire one year afterwards.  The shares of common stock underlying these 1,000,000 warrants are not included in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders of up to 17,070,000 shares of common stock, consisting of up to 8,535,000 shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of convertible senior notes and 8,535,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants. There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of their common stock offered by this prospectus. We do not know if, when, or in what amounts the selling stockholders may offer the common stock for sale.

The selling stockholders acquired the shares offered by this prospectus from us in a private placement of 85,350 units for $100.00 per unit, which closed on December 26, 2014.  Each unit consists of (i) one 10% senior convertible promissory note with an original principal amount of $100 and (ii) 100 warrants, each exercisable to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share.

In connection with the private placement of units, we entered into a registration rights agreement with each of the investors in the private placement. Under the registration rights agreement, we agreed to file, within 90 days of the closing of the private placement, a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants.  We agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to cause the shelf registration statement to be declared effective on or before 270 days after the date of filing.  If the registration statement is not effective within the required time period, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the investors in the private placement.  We are required to use its reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement current and continuously effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, until such date as all securities covered by the registration statement have been sold, thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144, or may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144.

The Notes

The notes are the senior, unsecured obligations of the Company.  Interest on the notes is payable quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing on March 31, 2015.  The interest rate on the notes is 10%, computed based on a year of twelve 30-day months and the number of days actually elapsed, and compounded annually.  The notes contain customary events of default, and upon the occurrence of any event of default, the interest rate shall increase by 5% per annum until cured.  The maturity date of the notes is December 26, 2019, unless they are earlier redeemed or converted.

The notes are redeemable at any time at our option.  We are required to redeem the notes upon (1) a capital reorganization, merger or sale of substantially all assets of the Company or a significant subsidiary; or (2) the receipt of proceeds from (a) an equity and/or debt offering by the Company or any significant subsidiary which raises, in the discretion of our Board, sufficient capital to commence construction of the Mount Hope Mine and to cover costs and expenditures during the construction period, (b) another debt issuance by us or a significant subsidiary of ours, or (c) certain asset sales.  The redemption amount shall be a cash payment equal to the unpaid principal amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest plus the present value of the remaining scheduled interest payments discounted to the maturity date at the applicable treasury rate plus 25 basis points.  Any partial redemption must be pro rata across all notes.

The notes are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into our common stock.  The conversion price is equal to 80% of the greater of (i) the average volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the 30 business day period ending on the business day prior to the date of notice of conversion, or (ii) the average VWAP for the 30 business day period ending on the original issue date of the notes.  The total number of shares of common stock into which the notes are convertible may not exceed 100 shares of common stock for each $100 principal amount converted, subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends and combinations.

The Warrants

The warrants may be exercised beginning on June 26, 2015 and will expire on December 26, 2019.  Each warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends and combinations.  The notes and warrants are separate from each other and the redemption or exercise of either in no way affects the other.

Selling Stockholders

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder and the number of shares of common stock that may be offered from time to time by each selling stockholder under this prospectus.  Except as set forth below, none of the selling stockholders has, or within the past three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates.

Information about the selling stockholders may change over time. In particular, the selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes, warrants or the underlying shares of common stock since the date on which they provided to us information regarding their notes and warrants. Any changed or new information given to us by the selling stockholders will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, if and when necessary.

Agreements with Hanlong (USA) Mining Investment Inc.

On March 4, 2010, we signed a series of agreements with Hanlong, an affiliate of Sichuan Hanlong Group, a privately held Chinese company, including a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on December 20, 2010, we closed Tranche 1 of the transaction by issuing 11,843,341 shares of common stock to Hanlong for a purchase price of $40 million, or approximately $3.38 per share.  In connection with this issuance of stock, we entered into a Stockholder Agreement (the “Stockholder Agreement”) with Hanlong on December 20, 2010.

On August 21, 2013, we and Hanlong terminated the Purchase Agreement. However, certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement and Stockholder Agreement remain in effect, and, as a result of the Tranche 1 closing, Hanlong remains entitled to nominate one director to our Board so long as it maintains at least a 10% fully diluted interest in the Company.  Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder Agreement, Hanlong designated Mr. Chen as its nominee for appointment to the Board, and at the 2013 Annual General Meeting of the Stockholders, the Board nominated and the stockholders elected Mr. Chen to the Board as a Class III member.

A break fee of $10.0 million became payable by Hanlong to the Company as the Purchase Agreement was terminated because Hanlong failed to arrange a term loan by the deadline provided in the agreement.  The Company and Hanlong agreed to offset the break fee against the repayment of amounts owed by the Company to Hanlong under a bridge loan.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling common membership units or shares received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The offering price of the shares from time to time will be determined by the selling stockholder and, at the time of determination, may be higher or lower than the market price of our common stock on the NYSE MKT.

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods from time to time when disposing of shares:

·                  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

·                  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

·                  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

·                  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

·                  privately negotiated transactions;

·                  short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;

·                  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

·                  broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

·                  a combination of any such methods of sale; or

·                  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders are not obligated to, and there is no assurance that the selling stockholders will, sell all or any of the shares we are registering. The selling stockholders may transfer, devise or gift such shares by other means not described in this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of our shares, the selling stockholders may sell the shares directly or through broker-dealers acting as a principal or agent, or pursuant to a distribution by one or more underwriters on a firm commitment or best efforts basis. The selling stockholders may also enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The selling stockholders, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the

12

Table of Contents

common stock may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

The aggregate proceeds to each selling stockholder from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

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 shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. Any profits on the resale of shares by a broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a selling stockholder. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act.

Under the registration agreement, we are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders have severally agreed to indemnify us against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of any of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares from time to time under this prospectus as it may be supplemented from time to time, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

To the extent required, the shares to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in a supplement to this prospectus or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the founding members and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to use reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act without restriction.

Item 14.  Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

The following table sets forth the expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities covered by this Registration Statement. All such expenses are estimates, other than the registration fee payable to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and will be borne by the Registrant.

Item 15.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) authorizes a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party 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 a corporation) by reason of the fact that 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), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person.

The DGCL also authorizes a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or was 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 by reason of the fact that 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, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

The corporation may only indemnify an officer, director, employee or agent if:

(i)             the indemnified person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by the person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation; and

(ii)          in the case of a criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

No indemnification may be made if it is determined that the individual did not meet the above listed standards.

A corporation’s determination of whether to indemnify someone who is a director or officer at the time of such determination must be made:

(i)             by a vote of the majority of disinterested directors (even if less than a quorum);

II-1

Table of Contents

(ii)          by a committee of disinterested directors designated by the majority vote of the disinterested directors (even if less than a quorum);

(iii)       by special legal counsel if there are fewer than two disinterested directors or if such disinterested directors so direct; or

(iv)      by the stockholders, but shares owned by or voted by a director who is not disinterested may not be voted.

Where a present or former officer or director of the corporation defends a matter successfully, indemnification for reasonable expenses is mandatory. Officers’ and directors’ expenses may be paid in advance of final disposition if the person agrees to repay the advances if he or she is later determined not to be entitled to indemnification.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) agents of the company (and any other persons to which DGCL permits the company to provide indemnification) through bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, subject only to limits created by applicable DGCL (statutory or non-statutory), with respect to actions for breach of duty to the corporation, its stockholders, and others.

The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation provides that no director of the company shall be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by such a director as a director, except to the extent provided by applicable law (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) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which such director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

The Registrant’s bylaws provide for the Registrant to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any director or officer of the Registrant. The Registrant’s bylaws also provide that expenses incurred by any officer or director in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be paid by the Registrant upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers, that require the Registrant to indemnify such persons, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware and subject to certain procedures, against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), damages, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether actual or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or an officer of the company or was serving as the request of the Registrant as a director or officer of another entity.

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

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

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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

II-3

Table of Contents

(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 the 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:

(i)                                     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

(ii)                                  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 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-4

Table of Contents

(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)                                  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to any charter provision, bylaw, contract, arrangement, statute, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 against the Registrant by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
