TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The following describes our common stock, preferred stock, certificate of incorporation and bylaws that are presently in effect, the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2020 (the “Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement”), that the Company has entered into with Deutsche Telekom AG, a German Atkiengesellschaft (“Deutsche Telekom”), and SoftBank Group Corp., a Japanese kabushiki kaisha (“SoftBank”), the Proxy, Lock-up and ROFR Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2020, by and between Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank (the “SB Proxy Agreement”) and the Proxy, Lock-up and ROFR Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2020, by and among Deutsche Telekom, Claure Mobile LLC (“CM LLC”) and Raul Marcelo Claure (the “Claure Proxy Agreement” and, together with the SB Proxy Agreement, the “Proxy Agreements”). This description is a summary only. We encourage you to read the complete text of such documents, which are incorporated by reference herein.
The authorized capital stock of T-Mobile US, Inc. consists of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share.
Common Stock
Holders of our common stock have the right to vote on every matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders other than any matter on which only the holders of preferred stock are entitled to vote separately as a class. There are no cumulative voting rights. Accordingly, holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote in an election of directors are able to elect all of the directors standing for election.
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of our common stock will share equally on a per share basis any dividends when, as and if declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. If we are liquidated, dissolved or wound up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to a ratable share of any distribution to stockholders, after satisfaction of all of our liabilities and of the prior rights of any outstanding class of preferred stock. Our common stock carries no preemptive or other subscription rights to purchase shares of our common stock and is not convertible, assessable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking fund.
Redemption
Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, if a holder of our common stock acquires additional shares of our common stock or otherwise is attributed with ownership of such shares that would cause us to violate Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) rules, we may, at the option of our board of directors, redeem from the holder or holders causing the violation of the FCC’s rules shares of our common stock sufficient to eliminate the violation.
The redemption price will be a price mutually determined by us and such stockholders, but if no agreement can be reached, the redemption price will be either:
75% of the fair market value of our common stock being redeemed, if the holder caused the FCC violation; or
100% of the fair market value of our common stock being redeemed, if the FCC violation was not caused by the holder.
The foregoing redemption rights do not apply to any shares of our common stock or preferred stock beneficially owned by Deutsche Telekom or SoftBank. If any waivers or approvals are required from the FCC in order for Deutsche Telekom or SoftBank to acquire or hold any shares of our common stock or preferred stock, Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank are required by our certificate of incorporation to cooperate to secure such waivers or approvals and abide by any conditions related to such waivers or approvals.
Preferred Stock
Subject to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and the limitations prescribed by law, our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rates, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices,
7

TABLE OF CONTENTS

liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of the series, which may be superior to those of our common stock, without further vote or action by the stockholders. We currently have no shares of preferred stock outstanding.
One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock may be to enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and as a result, protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock under our board of directors’ authority described above may adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock. For example, preferred stock issued by us may rank prior to our common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of our common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may discourage bids for our common stock or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Anti-takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Delaware law
The Company is a Delaware corporation and is subject to Delaware law, which generally prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time that the person became an interested stockholder, unless:
before such time the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder;
upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers of the corporation and by certain employee stock plans; or
at or after such time the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
A “business combination” generally includes mergers, asset sales and similar transactions between the corporation and the interested stockholder, and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the stockholder.
An “interested stockholder” is a person:
who, together with affiliates and associates, owns 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock; or
who is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and, together with his or her affiliates and associates, has owned 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock within three years.
The provisions of Delaware law described above along with our certificate of incorporation would make more difficult or discourage a proxy contest or acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial block of our common stock or the removal of the incumbent board of directors. Such provisions could also have the effect of discouraging an outsider from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our Company, even though such an attempt might be beneficial to us and our stockholders.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
The following provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and could delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in the stockholders’ best interests.
Advance notice of director nominations and matters to be acted upon at meetings. Our bylaws contain advance notice requirements for nominations for directors to our board of directors and for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Amendment to bylaws. Our certificate of incorporation provides that our bylaws may be amended upon the affirmative vote of the holders of shares having a majority of our voting power. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that our board of directors is authorized to make, alter or repeal our bylaws without further stockholder approval.
Special meeting of stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation provides that a special meeting of our stockholders (i) may be called by the chairperson of our board of directors or our chief executive officer and (ii) must be called by our secretary at the request of (a) a majority of our board of directors or (b) as long as Deutsche Telekom beneficially owns 25% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, the holders of not less than 33-13% of the voting power of all of the outstanding voting stock of our Company entitled to vote generally for the election of directors.
Board representation. The Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement provides that Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank each generally has the right to designate a number of designees to our board of directors and any committees thereof as further described below under “Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement.” Our certificate of incorporation provides that all of the directors of our board of directors are of one class and are elected annually.
Special approval rights. Our certificate of incorporation provides Deutsche Telekom with the same approval rights as are set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement with respect to our ability to take certain actions. As long as Deutsche Telekom beneficially owns 30% or more of our outstanding common stock and any other securities of the Company that are entitled to vote in the election of directors (collectively, “T-Mobile Voting Securities”), we are restricted from taking certain actions without Deutsche Telekom’s prior written consent, including (a) incurring indebtedness above certain levels based on a specified debt to cash flow ratio, (b) taking any action that would cause a default under any instrument evidencing indebtedness to which Deutsche Telekom or any of its affiliates is a party, (c) acquiring or disposing of assets or entering into mergers or similar acquisitions in excess of $1.0 billion, (d) changing the size of our board of directors, (e) subject to certain exceptions, issuing equity of 10% or more of the then-outstanding shares of our common stock, or issuing equity to redeem debt held by Deutsche Telekom, (f) repurchasing or redeeming equity securities or making any extraordinary or in-kind dividend other than on a pro rata basis, or (g) making certain changes involving our Chief Executive Officer.
Authorized but unissued shares. The authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, such as for additional public offerings, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Cumulative voting. Our certificate of incorporation does not permit cumulative voting in the election of directors. Consequently, any election of directors will be decided by a plurality of the votes cast (in person or by proxy) by holders of our common stock.
Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement
The Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement includes provisions setting forth the rights of Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank to designate individuals to be nominees for election to our board of directors and any committees thereof. Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, at all times when Deutsche Telekom, SoftBank and Raul Marcelo Claure beneficially own at least 50% of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities in the aggregate and any such T-Mobile Voting Security continues to be subject to the Proxy (as defined below under “Description of Capital Stock—Proxy Agreements”) and the Claure Proxy (as defined below under “Description of Capital Stock—Proxy Agreements”), as applicable, (i) our board of directors will consist of a total of 14 directors (except in cases of resignations, retirements, deaths or removals, pending any new appointments), (ii) each of Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank (except, in the case of SoftBank, if it beneficially owns less than a certain minimum percentage of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities (10% if the condition giving rise to SoftBank’s right to the Additional Shares has been satisfied, or 9% if it has not)) has the right to designate a specified number of nominees for election to our board of directors in accordance with the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, subject to certain
9

TABLE OF CONTENTS

requirements, including requirements with respect to the “independence” of certain nominees under applicable stock exchange listing standards and rules of the SEC, (iii) the chairperson of our board of directors will be a Deutsche Telekom designee and (iv) our board of directors will have certain committees, which committees will be comprised in the manner specified in the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement. The Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement further provides that at all times when Deutsche Telekom, SoftBank and Raul Marcelo Claure beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities in the aggregate or no T-Mobile Voting Security continues to be subject to the Proxy or the Claure Proxy, then, in each case, each of Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank has the right to designate a number of nominees for election to our board of directors equal to the percentage of T-Mobile Voting Stock that it beneficially owns (provided that such percentage is 10% or more) multiplied by the number of directors on our board of directors, rounded to the nearest whole number greater than zero.
As of the date of this prospectus, Deutsche Telekom has the right to designate ten individuals to be nominees for election to our board of directors and SoftBank has the right to designate one individual to be a nominee for election to our board of directors. As of the date of this prospectus, our board of directors consists of a total of 12 directors, including nine directors designated by Deutsche Telekom, two directors designated by SoftBank and G. Michael Sievert, our President and Chief Executive Officer.
In addition, pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement and our certificate of incorporation, as long as Deutsche Telekom beneficially owns 30% or more of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities, we are restricted from taking certain actions without Deutsche Telekom’s prior written consent, including (a) incurring indebtedness above certain levels based on a specified debt to cash flow ratio, (b) taking any action that would cause a default under any instrument evidencing indebtedness to which Deutsche Telekom or any of its affiliates is a party, (c) acquiring or disposing of assets or entering into mergers or similar acquisitions in excess of $1.0 billion, (d) changing the size of our board of directors, (e) subject to certain exceptions, issuing equity of 10% or more of the then-outstanding shares of our common stock, or issuing equity to redeem debt held by Deutsche Telekom, (f) repurchasing or redeeming equity securities or making any extraordinary or in-kind dividend other than on a pro rata basis, or (g) making certain changes involving the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Company has also agreed not to amend its certificate of incorporation and bylaws in any manner that could adversely affect Deutsche Telekom’s rights under the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement for as long as Deutsche Telekom beneficially owns 5% or more of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities.
Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, Deutsche Telekom, SoftBank and their respective affiliates are generally prohibited from acquiring T-Mobile Voting Securities that would cause their collective beneficial ownership to exceed 80.1% of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities unless such acquiring stockholder makes an offer to acquire all of the then-remaining outstanding shares of our common stock at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as the proposed acquisition from all other stockholders of the Company, which is either (i) accepted or approved by a majority of the directors on our board of directors, which majority includes a majority of the directors who are not affiliated with Deutsche Telekom or SoftBank under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement (the “Required Approval”), or (ii) accepted or approved by holders (other than Deutsche Telekom, SoftBank and their respective affiliates) of a majority of the shares of our common stock (other than shares held by Deutsche Telekom, SoftBank and their respective affiliates). Each of Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank is also prohibited from transferring any shares of our common stock in any transaction that would result in the transferee owning more than 30% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to certain exceptions, unless the transfer is approved by our board of directors (including the Required Approval) or the transferee offers to acquire all of the then outstanding shares of our common stock at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as the proposed transfer.
The Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement sets forth certain additional rights and obligations of each of Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank, including information rights, registration rights and non-competition restrictions.
The foregoing summary of the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 4.2 hereto.

Pursuant to the SB Proxy Agreement, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the shares of common stock beneficially owned by SoftBank will be voted in the manner directed by Deutsche Telekom, which obligation will terminate upon the earliest of: (i) with respect to each such share of common stock, the date on which such share is transferred to a third party in accordance with the terms of the SB Proxy Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, (ii) the date on which Deutsche Telekom owns 55% or more of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities and (iii) the date on which Deutsche Telekom has transferred an aggregate number of shares representing 5% or more of the outstanding common stock as of immediately following the effective time of the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of T-Mobile with and into Sprint pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Effective Time”). The SB Proxy Agreement also contains certain restrictions on the ability of each of SoftBank and Deutsche Telekom to transfer or acquire shares of our common stock, including that each of SoftBank and Deutsche Telekom is not permitted to transfer its shares without the prior written consent of the other stockholder from and after the Effective Time until the fourth anniversary of the Effective Time, subject to certain exceptions, including for transfers of up to 5% of the common stock outstanding as of the Effective Time beginning after the first anniversary of the Effective Time and up to an additional 10% of the common stock outstanding as of the Effective Time beginning after the second anniversary of the Effective Time.
The Claure Proxy Agreement establishes among Deutsche Telekom, Claure Mobile LLC (“CM LLC”) and Raul Marcelo Claure certain rights and obligations in respect of the shares of common stock owned by CM LLC and certain of its affiliates, including Raul Marcelo Claure, to enable Deutsche Telekom to consolidate T-Mobile into Deutsche Telekom’s financial statements. Pursuant to the Claure Proxy Agreement, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the shares of common stock beneficially owned by CM LLC will be voted in the manner directed by Deutsche Telekom (the “Claure Proxy”), which obligation will terminate upon the earliest of: (i) with respect to each such share of common stock, the date on which such share is transferred to a third party in accordance with the terms of the Proxy Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, (ii) the date on which Deutsche Telekom owns 55% or more of the outstanding T-Mobile Voting Securities and (iii) the date on which Deutsche Telekom has transferred an aggregate number of shares representing 5% or more of the outstanding common stock as of June 22, 2020. The Claure Proxy Agreement also contains certain restrictions on the ability of CM LLC and other entities related to Mr. Claure to transfer or acquire shares of our common stock, including a prohibition on transfer of shares without the prior written consent of Deutsche Telekom until April 1, 2024, subject to certain exceptions.
As a result of the Proxy Agreements, we are a “controlled company” for purposes of the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), which provides us with exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under NASDAQ rules.
Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:
eliminate the personal liability of directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of fiduciary duty to the extent permitted by Delaware law, except (i) for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for willful or negligent payment of unlawful dividends, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; and
indemnify directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary.
We believe that these provisions are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers. We have also entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers under which we have agreed to indemnify, and to advance expenses to, each director and officer to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law with respect to liabilities they may incur in their capacities as directors and officers.

Corporate Opportunities
Our certificate of incorporation provides, as permitted by the DGCL, that our non-employee directors have no obligation to offer us a corporate opportunity to participate in business opportunities presented to them or their respective affiliates even if the opportunity is one that we might reasonably have pursued, unless such corporate opportunity is offered to such director in his or her capacity as a director of our Company. Stockholders will be deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision of our certificate of incorporation.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
Selling securityholders may from time to time offer and sell our securities pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement. Selling securityholders are persons or entities that, directly or indirectly, have acquired or from time to time acquire, our securities. Such selling securityholders may be parties to registration rights agreements with us, or we otherwise may have agreed or agree to register their securities for resale.
The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the name of each of the selling securityholders and the number of securities beneficially owned by such selling securityholders that are covered by such prospectus supplement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We or selling securityholders may sell the securities being offered hereby:
directly to purchasers;
through agents;
through dealers;
through underwriters;
through a combination of any of the above methods of sale; or
through any other methods described in a prospectus supplement.
We will identify the specific plan of distribution, including any direct purchasers, agents, dealers, underwriters and, if applicable, their compensation, the purchase price, the net proceeds to us, the public offering price, and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers, in a prospectus supplement.
The distribution of securities may be effected, from time to time, in one or more transactions, including block transactions and transactions on the NASDAQ Global Select Market or any other organized market where the securities may be traded. The securities may be sold at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The consideration may be cash or another form negotiated by the parties. Agents, underwriters or broker-dealers may be paid compensation for offering and selling the securities. That compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions to be received from us or from the purchasers of the securities.
Offers to purchase the securities may be solicited directly by us or any selling securityholder or by agents designated by us or any selling securityholder from time to time. We will, in the prospectus supplement relating to an offering, name any agent that could be viewed as an underwriter under the Securities Act and describe any commissions we or any selling securityholder must pay. Any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment or, if indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, on a firm commitment basis.
If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we and any selling securityholder will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer, which may be deemed to be an underwriter as that term is defined in the Securities Act, may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. Dealer trading may take place in certain of the securities, including securities not listed on any securities exchange.
If an underwriter or underwriters are utilized in the sale, we and any selling securityholder will execute an underwriting agreement with the underwriters at the time of sale to them and the names of the underwriters will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, which will be used by the underwriters to make resales of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered to the public. The obligations of underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities of a series if any are purchased.
We or a selling securityholder may directly solicit offers to purchase the securities and we or a selling securityholder may make sales of securities 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. To the extent required, the prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any such sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, if used.
Underwriters, dealers, agents and other persons may be entitled, under agreements that may be entered into with us, to indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments that they may be required to make in respect thereof. Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.
Any person participating in the distribution of common stock registered under the registration statement that includes this prospectus will be subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our common stock by any such person. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of any person engaged in the distribution of shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular shares of common stock being distributed. All of the above may affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.
In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, any underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities or any other securities the prices of which may be used to determine payments on such securities. Specifically, any underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of the securities or of any such other securities, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the securities or any such other securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of the securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time.

Item 15.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides, in effect, that any person made a party to any action by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation may and, in some cases, must be indemnified by the corporation against, in the case of a non-derivative action, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by him as a result of such action and in the case of a derivative action, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), if in either type of action he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, in the case of a criminal action, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. This indemnification does not apply, in a derivative action, to matters as to which it is adjudged that the director, officer, employee or agent is liable to the corporation, unless upon court order it is determined that, despite such adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses.
The certificate of incorporation of the Company provides for indemnification, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, or agent of another corporation, limited liability company, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, liabilities, losses, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.
The certificate of incorporation of the Company provides that no director is liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with all of its directors and executive officers and has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Any underwriting agreement may provide for indemnification by the underwriters of the issuer and its officers and directors for certain 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 20 percent 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) above do not apply if 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

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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)
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 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 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.
