PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

ENERGOUS CORPORATION

51,107 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the resale by the Selling Stockholders identified in this prospectus (the "Selling Stockholders") of up to 51,107 shares (the "Inducement Shares") of our common stock, par value $0.00001 per share ("Common Stock"), representing shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase up to 47,764 shares of Common Stock with a per share exercise price equal to $7.79 (the "Common Stock Warrants"), and 3,343 shares (the "Placement Agent Shares," and together with the Inducement Shares, the "Shares") of Common Stock, representing shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding placement agent warrants to purchase up to 3,343 shares of Common Stock with a per share exercise price equal to $9.90 (the "Warrant Inducement Placement Agent Warrants," and together with the Common Stock Warrants, the "New Warrants"). Upon any cash exercise of the New Warrants by the Selling Stockholders, we will receive cash proceeds per share equal to the exercise price of the New Warrants. If the New Warrants are exercised in a cashless exercise, we will not receive any proceeds from the exercise of the New Warrants.

The Selling Stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares in a number of different ways and at varying prices. We provide more information about how the Selling Stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares in the section entitled "Plan of Distribution" on page 12. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses attributable to the sale of the Shares will be borne by the Selling Stockholders. We will pay all expenses (other than discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses) relating to the registration of the Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "WATT." On October 7, 2025, the last sale price of our Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $7.90 per share.

We are a "smaller reporting company" as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and as such, we have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. See "Prospectus Supplement Summary-Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company."

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") using the "shelf" registration process. Under this shelf registration process, the Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, sell the securities described in this prospectus. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the Selling Stockholders of the securities described in this prospectus, although we will receive the exercise price of any Warrants not exercised by the Selling Stockholders on a cashless exercise basis.

You should rely only on the information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any free writing prospectus that we have authorized in connection with the transaction contemplated herein. Neither we nor the Selling Stockholders have authorized anyone to provide you with any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectuses prepared by or on behalf of us or to which we have referred you. Neither we nor the Selling Stockholders take responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. Neither we nor the Selling Stockholders will make an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where such offer or sale are not permitted. No dealer, salesperson or other person is authorized to give any information or to represent anything not contained in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or any related free writing prospectus. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement is accurate as of the date on the front of those documents only, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement, or any sale of a security. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.

The Selling Stockholders and their respective permitted transferees may use the shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, to sell securities from time to time through any means described in the section titled "Plan of Distribution." More specific terms of any securities that the Selling Stockholders and their respective permitted transferees offer and sell may be provided in a prospectus supplement that describes, among other things, the specific amounts and prices of the securities being offered and the terms of the offering.

We may also provide a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement to add information to, or update or change information contained in, this prospectus. Any statement contained in this prospectus will be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this prospectus to the extent that a statement contained in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified will be deemed to constitute a part of this prospectus only as so modified, and any statement so superseded will be deemed not to constitute a part of this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement together with the additional information to which we refer you in the section of this prospectus titled "Where You Can Find More Information."

This prospectus contains summaries of certain provisions contained in some of the documents described herein, but reference is made to the actual documents for complete information. All of the summaries are qualified in their entirety by the actual documents. Copies of some of the documents referred to herein have been filed, will be filed or will be incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, and you may obtain copies of those documents as described below under "Where You Can Find More Information."

On August 7, 2025, we effected a reverse split of our Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-30 (the "Reverse Stock Split"). Unless otherwise indicated, all share amounts, per share data, share prices, exercise prices and conversion rates set forth in this prospectus have, where applicable, been adjusted retroactively to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors described below together with all of the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, which are incorporated herein by reference, and may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. If any of the risks incorporated by reference or set forth below occurs, our business, operations and financial condition could suffer significantly. As a result, you could lose some or all of your investment in our securities. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, operations and financial condition, or cause the value of our Common Stock to decline.

Risks Related to this Offering

Resales of our Common Stock in the public market by our stockholders as a result of this offering may cause the market price of our Common Stock to fall.

We are registering for resale shares of Common Stock. The price per share of our Common Stock in this offering may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Common Stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. The issuance of new shares of Common Stock could result in resales of our Common Stock by our current stockholders concerned about the potential ownership dilution of their holdings. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional shares of Common Stock or other equity or debt securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

Investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.

Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different levels of dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. The Selling Stockholders may sell such Shares at different times and at different prices.

We have additional securities available for issuance, which, if issued, could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our Common Stock.

We may from time-to-time issue additional shares of Common Stock. In addition, as opportunities present themselves, we may enter into financing or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities, Common Stock or preferred stock. Any future issuances of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock, would further dilute the percentage ownership of us held by holders of Common Stock. In addition, the issuance of certain securities, may be used as an "anti-takeover" device without further action on the part of our stockholders, and may adversely affect the holders of the Common Stock.

Because we may not declare cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future, stockholders must rely on appreciation of the value of our Common Stock for any return on their investment.

We currently anticipate that we will retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of our business and will not declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, only appreciation of the price of our Common Stock, if any, will provide a return to investors in this offering.

Future issuances of our Common Stock or instruments convertible or exercisable into our Common Stock, including shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, may materially and adversely affect the price of our Common Stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

Historically, we have raised capital by issuing Common Stock and warrants in public offerings because no other reasonable sources of capital were available. These public offerings of Common Stock and warrants have materially and adversely affected the prevailing market prices of our Common Stock and caused significant dilution to our stockholders. We have also historically raised capital or refinanced outstanding debt through the issuance of convertible notes. We may need to raise capital through additional public offerings of Common Stock, preferred stock, warrants and convertible debt in the future. We may obtain additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings, subject to certain limitations in the agreements governing our indebtedness outstanding at such time. If we issue additional shares of Common Stock or instruments convertible into Common Stock, it may materially and adversely affect the price of our Common Stock.

In addition, we are registering for resale pursuant to this prospectus up to 51,107 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants. The exercise of some or all of our outstanding warrants, including the New Warrants, may dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders, and any sales in the public market of any of our Common Stock issuable upon such conversion or exercise could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our Common Stock. We cannot predict if and when the Selling Stockholders may sell any Shares in the public market.

Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights to our technologies.

We may seek additional capital through a combination of public and private equity offerings, debt financings, strategic partnerships and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale or issuance of equity, warrants or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of such securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. If we raise capital through debt financing, it may involve agreements that include covenants further limiting or restricting our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through strategic partnerships or licensing agreements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our development and commercialization efforts. Any such event could have an adverse effect on and reduce the value of an investment in our Common Stock.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws that are intended to be covered by the "safe harbor" created thereby. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "would," "should," "could," "seek," "intend," "plan," "continue," "estimate," "anticipate" or other comparable terms.

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this prospectus and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein regarding our strategies, prospects, financial condition, operations, costs, plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding expectations with respect to future financings; expectations for revenues, liquidity, cash flows and financial performance; expectations regarding repayment of our term loan; expectations regarding the release of additional wireless power-enabled products, and the intended use of proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements relate to the future and are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and generally outside of our control, so actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others: our ability to develop commercially feasible technology or commercialize such technology; timing of customer implementations of our technology in consumer products; timing and receipt of regulatory approvals in the United States and internationally; our ability to find and maintain contract manufacturing partners; market acceptance of our technology; competition in our industry; our ability to protect our intellectual property; our ability to maintain or improve our financial position, cash flows, and liquidity and our expected financial needs; and other risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors and in Management's Discussion and Analysis sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, which are incorporated herein by reference, as well as those risks discussed in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, unless required by law.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We are registering the Shares for resale by the Selling Stockholders. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares covered by this prospectus, except with respect to amounts received by us due to the exercise of any New Warrants for cash. If the New Warrants are exercised in a cashless exercise, we will not receive any proceeds from the exercise of the New Warrants.

We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of any New Warrants for cash for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include research and development expenses, capital expenditures, and potential acquisitions of or investments in businesses, products and technologies that complement our business, although we have no present commitments or agreements to make any such acquisitions or investments as of the date of this prospectus.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the sale of up to 51,107 Shares that the Selling Stockholders may sell in one or more offerings upon exercise of some or all of the New Warrants. The table below sets forth information about the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be offered from time to time by the Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders identified below may currently hold or acquire shares of Common Stock in addition to those registered hereby. In addition, the Selling Stockholders identified below may sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of some or all of its shares of Common Stock registered hereunder in private placement transactions exempt from or not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time in the future to update or change the Selling Stockholders list and the securities that may be resold.

The following table sets forth, to our knowledge, information concerning the beneficial ownership of shares of our Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders as of September 30, 2025. The information in the table below with respect to the Selling Stockholders has been obtained from the Selling Stockholders and we have prepared the following table based on the information supplied to us by the Selling Stockholders on or prior to September 30, 2025. When we refer to the "Selling Stockholders" in this prospectus, or, if required, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we mean the Selling Stockholders listed in the table below as offering shares of Common Stock, as well as its respective pledgees, assignees, donees, transferees or successors-in-interest. Throughout this prospectus, when we refer to the shares of Common Stock being registered on behalf of the Selling Stockholders, we are referring to the Shares issued to the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the Warrant Inducement and related transactions. The Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of the Shares subject to this prospectus. See "Plan of Distribution."

The number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned prior to the offering for the Selling Stockholders includes all shares of our Common Stock beneficially held by the Selling Stockholders as of September 30, 2025, without regard to any limitations on exercises. The shares reported under "Maximum Number of Shares of Common Stock Being Offered Pursuant to this Prospectus" consist of the maximum number of Shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholders, also without regard to any limitations on exercises. The percentages of shares owned immediately following the sale of the Shares offered for resale are based on 1,824,844 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

This prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, determined as if the outstanding New Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the New Warrants. The fourth and fifth columns assume the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus and gives effect to all applicable beneficial ownership limitations, if any.

Under the terms of the New Warrants, the Selling Stockholders may not exercise the New Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such Selling Stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock that would exceed 4.99% (or, at the option of the Selling Stockholder, 9.99%), of our then outstanding Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants which have not been exercised. The Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See "Plan of Distribution."

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to our Common Stock. Generally, a person "beneficially owns" shares of our Common Stock if the person has or shares with others the right to vote those shares or to dispose of them, or if the person has the right to acquire voting or disposition rights within 60 days. The inclusion of any shares in this table does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership for the Selling Stockholders named below.

(1)

Represents shares of Common Stock underlying the New Warrants issued to the Selling Stockholders in the Warrant Inducement. All of the New Warrants that are exercisable for the Shares offered hereby contain certain beneficial ownership limitations, which provide that a holder of the New Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its New Warrants if such holder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (each such limitation, a "Beneficial Ownership Limitation").

Because the Selling Stockholder may offer all or some of the Shares pursuant to this offering, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the Shares, we cannot estimate the number of the Shares that will be held by the Selling Stockholder after completion of the offering.

Pursuant to the Engagement Letter, dated as of July 9, 2024, as amended on December 20, 2024 and August 20, 2025 (the "Original Engagement Letter"), between the Company and Wainwright, and the Engagement Letter Joinder Agreement, dated as of September 10, 2025 (the "Joinder Agreement" and, together with the Original Engagement Letter, the "Engagement Letter"), by and among the Company, Wainwright and Rodman, the Company, in connection with the closing of the Offering, agreed to issue to the Placement Agents or their respective designees warrants (the "Registered Direct Offering Placement Agent Warrants") to purchase up to an aggregate of 40,974 shares of Common Stock. The Registered Direct Offering Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the warrants issues in the 2025 Offering, except the Registered Direct Offering Placement Agent Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $9.90 per share and the Registered Direct Offering Placement Agent Warrants expire on September 10, 2030. Also pursuant to the Engagement Letter, the Company, in connection with the closing of the Warrant Inducement, agreed to issue to the Placement Agents or their respective designees warrants (the "Warrant Inducement Placement Agent Warrants") to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,343 shares of Common Stock. The Warrant Inducement Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the warrants issued to the Investor in the Warrant Inducement, except the Warrant Inducement Placement Agent Warrants are immediately exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $9.90 per share and the Warrant Inducement Placement Agent Warrants expire on September 10, 2030.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledges, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their Shares covered hereby on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the 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 own 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;

·

through agreements between broker-dealers and the seller stockholder(s) to sell a specified number of such Shares at a stipulated price per share;

·

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

·

any other method permitted by applicable law.

The Selling Stockholders may also sell the Shares under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the Shares or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell the Shares short and deliver the Shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell the Shares. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of the 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 and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the Shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed us that they do not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Shares.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the Selling Stockholders no longer own any Warrants and all of the Shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The Shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the Shares covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale Shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed it of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the shares of Common Stock offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Perkins Coie LLP.

ITEM 15.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), a corporation has the power to indemnify its directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and, subject to certain limitations, against certain costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, to which any of them is a party by reason of his being a director or officer of the corporation if it is determined that he acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such statutory provision. In addition, a corporation may advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking from such person to repay any amount so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such person is not eligible for indemnification.

The Registrant's certificate of incorporation contains provisions that eliminate the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except liability for the following:

·

any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders;

·

acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

·

under Section 174 of the DGCL (regarding unlawful dividends and stock purchases); and

·

any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's bylaws provide that:

·

the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of the Registrant, subject to very limited exceptions;

·

the Registrant may indemnify its other employees and agents as set forth in the DGCL against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of the registrant;

·

the Registrant is required to advance expenses to its directors, executive officers. employees and other agents, incurred in defending any action or proceeding for which indemnification is required or permitted as described above to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to certain additional requirements; and

·

the rights to indemnification conferred in the bylaws are not exclusive.

The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its current directors and executive officers. These agreements require the Registrant to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent not prohibited by Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to the Registrant, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Undertakings

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% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement and

(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 (1)(i), (ii), and (iii) 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;

(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 to any purchaser:

(A) Each prospectus filed by a 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 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 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; and

(6) 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 SEC 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 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, 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 San Jose, State of California, on October 8, 2025.
