PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling shareholder may, from time to time, sell any or all of its shares of common stock offered herein pursuant to this prospectus supplement between the date of this prospectus supplement and August 17, 2023. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholder of the shares of common stock.
The selling shareholder of our common stock and any of its pledgees, assignees, and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered in this prospectus supplement on the principal trading market for our common stock or any other stock exchange, market, or trading facility on which our common stock is traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, at fixed prices, or at negotiated prices. The selling shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
•
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
•
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the common stock 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;
•
settlement of short sales;
•
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling shareholder to sell a specified number of such common stock at a stipulated price per security;
•
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
•
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
•
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
On or after August 18, 2023, the selling shareholder may only sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus supplement. The selling shareholder is not obligated to, and there is no assurance that the selling shareholder will, sell all or any of the common stock we are registering.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholder may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of common stock, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus supplement, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, Rule 5110; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests in this prospectus supplement, the selling shareholder may:
•
enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of our common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume;
•
sell common stock short and deliver these shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares; and
•
enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus supplement, which securities such broker-dealer or
