            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">On May&#160;28, 2024, we announced that our board of directors adopted bitcoin as our primary treasury reserve asset on an ongoing basis, subject to market conditions and our anticipated cash needs and that we purchased 581 bitcoins for an aggregate amount of $40.0&#160;million. As of November 22, 2024, we hold an aggregate of 1,570 bitcoins, which we acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $117.8 million and an average purchase price of $75,039 per bitcoin. All purchase amounts include fees and expenses. </font>

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We view bitcoin as a reliable store of value and a compelling investment. We believe it has unique characteristics as a scarce and finite asset that can serve as a reasonable inflation hedge and safe haven amid global instability. Bitcoin is often compared to gold, which has been viewed as a dependable store of value throughout history. Gold&#8217;s value has appreciated substantially over time. For example, 25 years ago, the price of gold was approximately $500 per ounce. In 2024, the price of gold has traded higher than $2,800 per ounce. As of November 22, 2024, the total market capitalization of gold was approximately $18.7 trillion compared to approximately $2.0 trillion for bitcoin. Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset that has traded below $38,000 per bitcoin and above $99,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase in the 12 months preceding the date of this prospectus supplement. More recently, between September 2024 and November 2024, bitcoin has traded above $99,000 per bitcoin and below $54,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase. While highly volatile, bitcoin&#8217;s price has also appreciated significantly since bitcoin&#8217;s inception in January 2009 (at zero per bitcoin). We believe that a substantial portion of bitcoin&#8217;s appreciation is attributable to the view that bitcoin is or will become a reliable store of value. Like gold, bitcoin is also viewed as a scarce asset; the ultimate supply of bitcoin is limited to 21 million coins and approximately 94% of its supply already exists. We believe that bitcoin&#8217;s </font>

Given our belief that bitcoin is a comparable and possibly better store of value than gold, we believe that bitcoin has the potential to approach or exceed the value of gold over time. Given the substantial gap in value between gold and bitcoin based on current market capitalization, we believe that bitcoin has the potential to generate outsize returns as it gains increasing acceptance as &#8220;digital gold.&#8221; We believe that the growing global acceptance and &#8220;institutionalization&#8221; of bitcoin supports our view that bitcoin is a reliable store of value. We believe that bitcoin&#8217;s unique attributes discussed above not only differentiate it from fiat money, but also from other cryptocurrency assets, and for that reason, we have no plans to purchase cryptocurrency assets other than bitcoin.</font>

Essentially, CMS is phasing in a new Medicare Advantage risk adjustment model (V28 model) from the previous model (V24 model) over a three-year period. The V28 model does not include risk adjusted payments for PAD without complications, which payments many health insurers, including our customers, relied upon for their Medicare Advantage patients in the V24 model. 2024&#160;marks the first year the changes will be phased in as follows: in calendar year 2023, full payment under the V24 model; in calendar year 2024, 67% of the V24 model; in calendar year 2025, 33% of the V24 model. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and the risk factors in our most recent Annual Report on Form&#160;10-K, our most recent Quarterly Report on Form&#160;10-Q, in Exhibit&#160;99.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part, and in our other filings with the SEC that we make from time to time, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, together with other information in this prospectus supplement and the information and documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus that we authorize for use in connection with this offering. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could suffer materially. In such event, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.</font><font style="font-style:normal;letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">A significant portion of our total outstanding shares are eligible to be sold into the market, which could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.</font><font style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock. Persons who were our stockholders prior to our initial public offering continue to hold a substantial number of shares of our common stock. If such persons sell, or indicate an intention to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the trading price of our common stock could decline. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In addition, we have filed a universal shelf registration statements (which allows us to offer and sell securities from time to time pursuant to one or more offerings at prices and terms to be determined at the time of sale) subject to an aggregate offering amount stated therein, as well as registration statements registering all shares of common stock that we may issue under our equity compensation plans or pursuant to equity awards made to newly hired employees outside of equity compensation plans. Such registered shares can be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to volume limitations applicable to affiliates. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could cause the price of our common stock to decline and delay the development of additional products and services in our pursuit of our new bitcoin strategy. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">We may use the net proceeds from this offering to purchase additional bitcoin, the price of which has been, and will likely continue to be, highly volatile.</font><font style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may use the net proceeds from this offering to purchase additional bitcoin. Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset that has traded below $38,000 per bitcoin and above $99,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase in the 12&#160;months preceding the date of this prospectus supplement. More recently, between September 2024 and November 2024, bitcoin has traded above $99,000 per bitcoin and below $54,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase. In addition, bitcoin does not pay interest or other returns and so ability to generate a return on investment from the net proceeds from this offering will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of bitcoin following our purchases of bitcoin with the net proceeds from this offering. Future fluctuations in bitcoin trading prices may result in our converting bitcoin purchased with the net proceeds from this offering into cash with a value substantially below the net proceeds from this offering. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The shares of common stock sold in this offering, if any, will be sold from time to time at various prices. However, we expect that the offering price of our common stock will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding common stock. Our net tangible book value represents our total assets less our digital assets (which are classified as intangible assets) and less our total liabilities. After giving effect to the share issuances subsequent to September 30, 2024 described under the heading &#8220;The Offering&#8221; and the sale of shares of our common stock in the aggregate amount of $50,000,000 at an assumed offering price of $63.65 per share, the last sale price of our common stock on November&#160;22, 2024 on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and after deducting estimated commissions and estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of September&#160;30, 2024 would have been approximately $69.7&#160;million, or approximately $7.68 per share. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $3.79 per share to the existing holders of our common stock and an immediate dilution in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $55.97 per share to purchasers of our common stock in this offering. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Furthermore, the exercise of outstanding options will result, in further dilution to investors. In addition, the market price of our common stock could fall as a result of resales of any of these shares common stock issuable upon such exercise due to an increased number of shares of common stock available for sale in the market. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by any investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by any investors in this offering. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In addition, the issuance from time to time of shares of our common stock in this offering, or our ability to issue these shares of common stock in this offering, could result in resales of our common stock by our current stockholders concerned about the potential dilution of their holdings. In turn, these resales could have the effect of depressing the market price for our common stock. </font>

The number of shares that are sold by Cantor after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on the market price of the common shares during the sales period and limits we set with Cantor. Because the price per share of each share sold will fluctuate based on the market price of our common stock during the sales period, it is not possible at this stage to predict the number of shares that will be ultimately issued. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Bitcoin and other digital assets are relatively novel and are subject to significant uncertainty, which could adversely impact their price. The application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, and it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of bitcoin.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of bitcoin or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer bitcoin. For example, the U.S. executive branch, the SEC, the European Union&#8217;s Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation, among others have been active in recent years, and in the U.K., the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023, or FSMA 2023 became law. It is not possible to predict whether, or when, any of these developments will lead to Congress granting additional authorities to the SEC or other regulators, or whether, or when, any other federal, state or foreign legislative bodies will take any similar actions. It is also not possible to predict the nature of any such additional authorities, how additional legislation or regulatory oversight might impact the ability of digital asset markets to function or the willingness of financial and other institutions to continue to provide services to the digital assets industry, nor how any new regulations or changes to existing regulations might impact the value of digital assets generally and bitcoin specifically. The consequences of increased regulation of digital assets and digital asset activities could adversely affect the market price of bitcoin and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Moreover, the risks of engaging in a bitcoin treasury strategy are relatively novel and have created, and could continue to create, complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The growth of the digital assets industry in general, and the use and acceptance of bitcoin in particular, may also impact the price of bitcoin and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The pace of worldwide growth in the adoption and use of bitcoin may depend, for instance, on public familiarity with digital assets, ease of buying, accessing or gaining exposure to bitcoin, institutional demand for bitcoin as an investment asset, the participation of traditional financial institutions in the digital assets industry, consumer demand for bitcoin as a means of payment, and the availability and popularity of alternatives to bitcoin. Even if growth in bitcoin adoption occurs in the near or medium-term, there is no assurance that bitcoin usage will continue to grow over the long-term.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Because bitcoin has no physical existence beyond the record of transactions on the bitcoin blockchain, a variety of technical factors related to the bitcoin blockchain could also impact the price of bitcoin. For example, malicious attacks by miners, inadequate mining fees to incentivize validating of bitcoin transactions, hard &#8220;forks&#8221; of the bitcoin blockchain into multiple blockchains, and advances in digital computing, algebraic geometry, and quantum computing could undercut the integrity of the bitcoin blockchain and negatively affect the price of bitcoin. The liquidity of bitcoin may also be reduced and damage to the public perception of bitcoin may occur, if financial institutions were to deny or limit banking services to businesses that hold bitcoin, provide bitcoin-related services or accept bitcoin as payment, which could also decrease the price of bitcoin. Similarly, the open-source nature of the bitcoin blockchain means the contributors and developers of the bitcoin blockchain are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the blockchain, and any failure to properly monitor and upgrade the bitcoin blockchain could adversely affect the bitcoin blockchain and negatively affect the price of bitcoin.</font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the 1940 Act, a company generally will be deemed to be an &#8220;investment company&#8221; for purposes of the 1940 Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities or (2) it engages, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. We do not believe that we are an &#8220;investment company,&#8221; as such term is defined in the 1940 Act, and are not registered as an &#8220;investment company&#8221; under the 1940 Act as of the date of this prospectus supplement. </font>

If bitcoin is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would take steps to reduce the percentage of bitcoins that constitute investment assets under the 1940 Act. These steps may include, among others, selling bitcoins that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in non-investment assets, and we may be forced to sell our bitcoins at unattractive prices. We may also seek to acquire additional non-investment assets to maintain compliance with the 1940 Act, and we may need to incur debt, issue additional equity or enter into other financing arrangements that are not otherwise attractive to our business. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, we can make no assurance that we would successfully be able to take the necessary steps to avoid being deemed to be an investment company in accordance with the safe harbor. If we were unsuccessful, and if bitcoin is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, then we would have to register as an investment company, and the additional regulatory restrictions imposed by 1940 Act could adversely affect the market price of bitcoin and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock.</font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Historically, the bitcoin markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our bitcoin at favorable prices or at all. For example, a number of bitcoin trading venues temporarily halted deposits and withdrawals in 2022. As a result, our bitcoin holdings may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents. Further, bitcoin we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, we may be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered bitcoin or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of bitcoin has declined significantly. If we are unable to sell our bitcoin, enter into additional capital raising transactions using bitcoin as collateral, or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings, or if we are forced to sell our bitcoin at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted. </font>

Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular concern with respect to our bitcoin. Bitcoin and other blockchain-based cryptocurrencies and the entities that provide services to participants in the bitcoin ecosystem have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities. For example, in October 2021 it was reported that hackers exploited a flaw in the account recovery process and stole from the accounts of at least 6,000 customers of the Coinbase exchange, although the flaw was subsequently fixed and Coinbase reimbursed affected customers. Similarly, in November&#160;2022, hackers exploited weaknesses in the security architecture of the FTX Trading digital asset exchange and reportedly stole over $400 million in digital assets from customers.

These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt, to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work-from-home arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the bitcoin industry, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.</font>

Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. Our estimates of the potential market opportunities for our product candidates include several key assumptions based on our industry knowledge, industry publications, third-party research and other surveys, which may be based on a small sample size and may fail to accurately reflect market opportunities. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, no independent source has verified such assumptions. </font>

We previously sold an aggregate of 1,093,229 shares of our common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $50.0&#160;million pursuant to the sales agreement and the sales agreement prospectus included in the Registration Statement that was declared effective on August&#160;13, 2024. Pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to an additional $50,000,000 from time to time through or to Cantor acting as sales agent. The sales agreement is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part and is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. </font>

We may instruct Cantor not to sell common stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us from time to time. We or Cantor may suspend the offering of common stock upon notice and subject to other conditions. </font>

        <div style="margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We will pay the sales agent commissions, in cash, for its service in acting as agent in the sale of our common stock. The sales agent will be entitled to compensation at a commission rate of up to 3.0% of the sales price per share sold by it under the sales agreement. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse the sales agent for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel in an amount not to exceed (a)&#160;$75,000 in connection with the execution of the sales agreement, (b)&#160;$25,000 per calendar quarter thereafter and (c)&#160;$40,000 for any refresh of the ATM pursuant to the terms of the sales agreement. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding compensation and reimbursements payable to the sales agent under the terms of the sales agreement, will be approximately $0.3 million. </font>

Sales of our common stock as contemplated in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and Cantor may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement. </font>

In connection with the sale of the common stock on our behalf, Cantor will be deemed to be an &#8220;underwriter&#8221; within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of Cantor will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the sales agent against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. </font>

This prospectus describes the general terms of these securities and the general manner in which these securities will be offered. We will provide the specific terms of these securities in supplements to this prospectus. The prospectus supplements will also describe the specific manner in which these securities will be offered and may also supplement, update or amend information contained or incorporated by reference in this document.

The securities may be sold directly to you, through agents, or through underwriters and dealers. If agents, underwriters or dealers are used to sell the securities, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol &#8220;SMLR.&#8221; Our stock price has been volatile, and may continue to be volatile. As a result of this volatility you may not be able to sell your common stock at a price per share higher than the price you paid for such share, if at all. On August&#160;8, 2023, the closing price of our common stock was $23.86 per share. In 2024 through August&#160;8, 2024, the closing price of our common stock has been as high as $51.54 per share on February 15, 2024, and as low as $21.03 per share on May 8, 2024. We believe this recent volatility is primarily due to reporting first quarter 2024 revenues and net profits on May 7, 2024 that were lower than securities analyst expectations (and the reduction in price recommendation that followed), as well as our May 28, 2024, announcement of our new bitcoin strategy rather than a change in our financial condition or results of operations. On August&#160;8, 2024, the closing price for our common stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market, was $28.50 per share. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described under &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; in our most recent annual report on Form&#160;10-K as supplemented or updated in our most recent quarterly report on Form&#160;10-Q, any current report on Form&#160;8-K including Exhibit 99.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, as well as any accompanying prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and in any accompanying prospectus supplement, including our financial statements and related notes, before deciding whether to purchase our securities. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our stock price has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. On August&#160;8, 2023, the closing price of our common stock was $23.86 per share. In 2024 through August&#160;8, 2024, the closing price of our common stock has been as high as $51.54 per share on February 15, 2024, and as low as $21.03 per share on May 8, 2024. We believe this recent volatility is primarily due to reporting first quarter 2024 revenues and net profits on May 7, 2024 that were lower than securities analyst expectations, as well as our May 28, 2024, announcement of our new bitcoin strategy rather than a change in our financial condition or results of operations. In addition, the stock market in general and the market for smaller medical device companies in particular have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of this volatility, you may not be able to sell your common stock at a price per share higher than you paid for such share, if at all. The market price for our common stock has been, and may continue to be influenced by many factors, including:</font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could cause the price of our common stock to decline and delay the development of additional products and services our pursuit of our new bitcoin strategy. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.</font>
        </div>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may use the net proceeds from this offering to purchase additional bitcoin. Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset that has traded below $25,000 per bitcoin and above $70,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase in the 12 months preceding the date of this prospectus. More recently, between August&#160;1, 2024 and August&#160;8, 2024, bitcoin has traded above $65,000 per bitcoin and below $50,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase. We believe this recent volatility is due to a broader market downturn on August&#160;5, 2024, but also due to public statements from U.S. Presidential candidates regarding purchases of bitcoin and plans for bitcoin as a U.S. treasury reserve. In addition, bitcoin does not pay interest or other returns and so ability to generate a return on investment from the net proceeds from this offering will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of bitcoin following our purchases of bitcoin with the net proceeds from this offering. Future fluctuations in bitcoin trading prices may result in our converting bitcoin purchased with the net proceeds from this offering into cash with a value substantially below the net proceeds from this offering. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Bitcoin and other digital assets are novel assets, and are subject to significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty.</font>

        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Bitcoin and other digital assets are relatively novel and are subject to significant uncertainty, which could adversely impact their price. The application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, and it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of bitcoin.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of bitcoin or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer bitcoin. For example, the U.S. executive branch, the SEC, the European Union&#8217;s Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation, among others have been active in recent years, and in the U.K., the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023, or FSMA 2023, became law. It is not possible to predict whether, or when, any of these developments will lead to Congress granting additional authorities to the SEC or other regulators, or whether, or when, any other federal, state or foreign legislative bodies will take any similar actions. It is also not possible to predict the nature of any such additional authorities, how additional legislation or regulatory oversight might impact the ability of digital asset markets to function or the willingness of financial and other institutions to continue to provide services to the digital assets industry, nor how any new regulations or changes to existing regulations might impact the value of digital assets generally and bitcoin specifically. The consequences of increased regulation of digital assets and digital asset activities could adversely affect the market price of bitcoin and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Moreover, the risks of engaging in a bitcoin treasury strategy are relatively novel and have created, and could continue to create, complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.</font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The growth of the digital assets industry in general, and the use and acceptance of bitcoin in particular, may also impact the price of bitcoin and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The pace of worldwide growth in the adoption and use of bitcoin may depend, for instance, on public familiarity with digital assets, ease of buying, accessing or gaining exposure to bitcoin, institutional demand for bitcoin as an investment </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Because bitcoin has no physical existence beyond the record of transactions on the bitcoin blockchain, a variety of technical factors related to the bitcoin blockchain could also impact the price of bitcoin. For example, malicious attacks by miners, inadequate mining fees to incentivize validating of bitcoin transactions, hard &#8220;forks&#8221; of the bitcoin blockchain into multiple blockchains, and advances in digital computing, algebraic geometry, and quantum computing could undercut the integrity of the bitcoin blockchain and negatively affect the price of bitcoin. The liquidity of bitcoin may also be reduced and damage to the public perception of bitcoin may occur, if financial institutions were to deny or limit banking services to businesses that hold bitcoin, provide bitcoin-related services or accept bitcoin as payment, which could also decrease the price of bitcoin. Similarly, the open-source nature of the bitcoin blockchain means the contributors and developers of the bitcoin blockchain are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the blockchain, and any failure to properly monitor and upgrade the bitcoin blockchain could adversely affect the bitcoin blockchain and negatively affect the price of bitcoin.</font>

We do not believe that we are an &#8220;investment company,&#8221; as such term is defined in the 1940 Act, and are not registered as an &#8220;investment company&#8221; under the 1940 Act as of the date of this prospectus. </font>

If bitcoin is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would take steps to reduce the percentage of bitcoins that constitute investment assets under the 1940 Act. These steps may include, among others, selling bitcoins that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in non-investment assets, and we may be forced to sell our bitcoins at unattractive prices. We may also seek to acquire additional non-investment assets to maintain compliance with the 1940 Act, and we may need to incur debt, issue additional equity or enter into other financing arrangements that are not otherwise attractive to our business. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, we can make no assurance that we would successfully be able to take the necessary steps to avoid being deemed to be an investment company in accordance with the safe harbor.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As bitcoin and other digital assets are relatively novel and the application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, and it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of bitcoin. The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of bitcoin or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer bitcoin. For examples, see &#8220;&#8212;&#8201;Bitcoin and other digital assets are novel assets, and are subject to significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty&#8221; above. </font>

Moreover, the risks of us engaging in a bitcoin treasury strategy have created, and could continue to create, complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Historically, the bitcoin markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our bitcoin at favorable prices or at all. For example, a number of bitcoin trading venues temporarily halted deposits and withdrawals in 2022. As a result, our bitcoin holdings may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents. Further, bitcoin we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, we may be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered bitcoin or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of bitcoin has declined significantly. If we are unable to sell our bitcoin, enter into additional capital raising transactions using bitcoin as collateral, or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings, or if we are forced to sell our bitcoin at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.</font>

Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular concern with respect to our bitcoin. Bitcoin and other blockchain-based cryptocurrencies and the entities that provide services to participants in the bitcoin ecosystem have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities.

The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper or illegal access to systems and information (including personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt, to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work-from-home arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the bitcoin industry, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. </font>

The information that we incorporate by reference in this prospectus is considered to be part of this prospectus. Because we are incorporating by reference future filings with the SEC, this prospectus is continually updated and those future filings may modify or supersede some of the information included or incorporated in this prospectus. This means that you must look at all of the SEC filings that we incorporate by reference to determine if any of the statements in this prospectus or in any document previously incorporated by reference have been modified or superseded. This prospectus incorporates by reference the documents listed below (File&#160;No.&#160;001-36305) and any future filings we make with the SEC under Sections&#160;13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act (in each case, other than those documents or the portions of those documents not deemed to be filed) until the offering of the securities under the registration statement is terminated or completed: </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">On May&#160;28, 2024, we announced that our board of directors adopted bitcoin as our primary treasury reserve asset on an ongoing basis, subject to market conditions and our anticipated cash needs, and that we purchased 581 bitcoins for an aggregate amount of $40.0&#160;million, inclusive of fees and expenses. On June&#160;6, 2024, we announced the purchase of an additional 247 bitcoins for an aggregate amount of $17.0 million. On June&#160;28, 2024, we purchased an additional 49 bitcoins for $3.0 million. In July&#160;2024, we purchased an additional 52 bitcoins for a total of $3.0 million. All purchase amounts include fees and expenses. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As of June&#160;30, 2024, the fair value of our digital assets (comprised of approximately 877 bitcoins) was $54.9 million, which reflects a cumulative reduction in fair value of $5.1 million since acquisition. As of June&#160;30, 2024, the original cost basis of our bitcoins was $60.0 million. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We view bitcoin as a reliable store of value and a compelling investment. We believe it has unique characteristics as a scarce and finite asset that can serve as a reasonable inflation hedge and safe haven amid global instability. Bitcoin is often compared to gold, which has been viewed as a dependable store of value throughout history. Gold&#8217;s value has appreciated substantially over time. For example, 25 years ago, the price of gold was approximately $500 per ounce. In 2024, the price of gold has traded higher than $2,400 per ounce. As of July 2024, the total market capitalization of gold was approximately $16.1 trillion compared to approximately $1.1 trillion for bitcoin. Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset that has traded below $25,000 per bitcoin and above $70,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase in the 12 months preceding the date of this prospectus. More recently, between August&#160;1, 2024 and August&#160;8, 2024, bitcoin has traded above $65,000 per bitcoin and below $50,000 per bitcoin on Coinbase. We believe this recent volatility is due to a broader market downturn on August&#160;5, 2024, but also due to public statements from U.S. Presidential candidates regarding purchases of bitcoin and plans for bitcoin as a U.S. treasury reserve. While highly volatile, bitcoin&#8217;s price has also appreciated significantly since bitcoin&#8217;s inception in January 2009 (at zero per bitcoin). We believe that a substantial portion of bitcoin&#8217;s appreciation is attributable to the view that bitcoin is or will become a reliable store of value. Like gold, bitcoin is also viewed as a scarce asset; the ultimate supply of bitcoin is limited to 21 million coins and approximately 94% of its supply already exists. We believe that bitcoin&#8217;s finite, digital and decentralized nature as well as its architectural resilience make it preferable to gold, which, as noted above, has a market capitalization 16 times higher than the market capitalization of bitcoin as of July 2024. Given our belief that bitcoin is a comparable and possibly better store of value than gold, we believe that bitcoin has the potential to approach or exceed the value of gold over time. Given the substantial gap in value between gold and bitcoin </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">based on current market capitalization, we believe that bitcoin has the potential to generate outsize returns as it gains increasing acceptance as &#8220;digital gold.&#8221; We believe that the growing global acceptance and &#8220;institutionalization&#8221; of bitcoin supports our view that bitcoin is a reliable store of value. We believe that bitcoin&#8217;s unique attributes discussed above not only differentiate it from fiat money, but also from other cryptocurrency assets, and for that reason, we have no plans to purchase cryptocurrency assets other than bitcoin.</font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We have purchased bitcoin through multiple bitcoin trade execution, or liquidity, providers, who may also serve as custodians of our bitcoin, and expect to continue to do so in the future. We may also in the future acquire or dispose of bitcoin via trade orders executed on exchanges such as Coinbase. Our liquidity providers and custodians, or our BTC Service Providers, are regulated and licensed entities that operate under high security, regulatory, audit and governance standards. We transact with multiple BTC Service Providers for both trade execution and custodial services to spread our risk and to limit our exposure to any single service provider or counterparty. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In selecting our liquidity providers, we evaluate regulatory status, pricing, annual trading volume, security and customer service. We also leverage the due diligence we conduct in connection with our custodial arrangements when conducting due diligence on our liquidity providers. Our current agreements with our liquidity providers are non-exclusive, may be terminated by us at any time, do not impose any requirements for minimum purchases or volumes with such providers, and generally provide that we are responsible for the costs associated with transfers of bitcoin. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">To date, our liquidity providers, acting as our agents, have executed trades of bitcoin on our behalf using time-weighted average price over a prearranged time period, or TWAP, pricing and purchasing methodology, and we expect them to continue to do so in the future. The prearranged periods over which trades may be executed vary in length depending on the amount of bitcoin to be purchased and other factors, and are selected because they are expected to have lower price volatility and higher market liquidity, thereby limiting cost and pricing risks. Our liquidity providers use TWAP in their trading algorithms to execute large orders of bitcoin, without significantly affecting market price, by breaking large orders into several smaller orders that are independently traded at different time intervals in a generally linear fashion across different trading venues our liquidity providers select. Our liquidity providers execute trades based on the best possible terms reasonably available, taking into consideration all relevant facts and circumstances. As our agents, our liquidity providers use their discretion to select the counterparties to the transactions as well as the trading venues and platforms on which they execute trades on our behalf, and they may execute trades via cryptocurrency exchanges or in over-the-counter transactions. Our liquidity providers may calculate time-weighted average price using any number of resources, including various trading platforms. Our liquidity providers have policies and procedures pursuant to which they conduct trades with institutions that possess licenses or registrations to the extent required by their activities and have been AML/KYC approved pursuant to our liquidity providers&#8217; internal programs. We may in the future utilize TWAP pricing or another pricing methodology in connection with the execution of our bitcoin trades. </font>

Our custodians may also serve as liquidity providers. As of July&#160;31, 2024, we have entered into custodial agreements with Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC, or Coinbase Custody, a subsidiary of Coinbase Global,&#160;Inc., or Coinbase, and NYDIG Trust Company LLC, or NYDIG, a subsidiary of New York Digital Investment Group LLC.

Our custodial agreement with NYDIG provides that NYDIG will store our bitcoin in offline, or &#8220;cold&#8221; storage, and our custodial agreement with Coinbase Custody provides that Coinbase Custody will hold our bitcoin in an online &#8220;hot&#8221; wallet until it receives an instruction from us to effectuate a transfer of our bitcoin into cold storage.

We never store, view or directly access our private keys. The operational procedures of our custodians are reviewed periodically by third-party advisors. All movement of our bitcoin by our custodians is coordinated, monitored and audited. Our custodians&#8217; procedures to prove control over the digital assets they hold in custody are also examined by their auditors. Additionally, we periodically verify our bitcoin holdings by reconciling our custodial service ledgers to the public blockchain.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We believe that our primary counterparty risk with respect to our bitcoin holdings is performance obligations under our various custody arrangements. We intend to custody our bitcoin with multiple custodians to diversify our potential risk exposure to any one custodian. Our custodial services contracts do not restrict our ability to reallocate our bitcoin among our custodians or require us to hold a minimum amount of bitcoin with any particular custodian. Our bitcoin holdings may be concentrated with a single custodian from time to time, particularly as we negotiate new arrangements or move our assets among our various service providers. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As regulated entities, our BTC Service Providers have policies, procedures and controls designed to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act, the implementing regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department&#8217;s FinCEN, the Executive Orders and economic sanctions regulations administered by the U.S. Treasury Department&#8217;s Office of Foreign Assets Control, or OFAC, as well as state Anti-Money Laundering, or AML laws. Pursuant to these policies, procedures and controls, our BTC Service Providers use information systems developed in-house and by third-party vendors to conduct know your customer, or KYC, identification verification, background checks and other due diligence on counterparties and customers, and on the affiliates, related persons and authorized representatives of their customers, and to screen these parties against published sanctions lists. These checks may, where appropriate, assess financial strength, reputation, trading capabilities and other risks that may be associated with a given customer or counterparty. Our BTC Service Providers perform these checks and screenings during initial onboarding or in advance of a transaction, as applicable, and periodically thereafter, particularly when the sanctions lists that they monitor are updated. Our BTC Service Providers also utilize systems that monitor and screen blockchain transactions and digital wallet addresses in their efforts to detect and report suspicious or unlawful activity. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our due diligence process when selecting BTC service providers involves giving consideration to their reputation and security level, confirming their internal compliance with applicable laws and regulations and ensuring their undertakings of contractual obligations on compliance. With respect to our custodians, we also conduct due diligence reviews during the custodial relationship to monitor the safekeeping of our bitcoin. As part of our process, we obtain and review our custodians&#8217; services organization controls reports if available. We are also contractually entitled to review our custodians&#8217; relevant internal controls through a variety of methods. We have in the past conducted, and expect to conduct in the future, supplemental due diligence when we believe it is warranted by market circumstances or otherwise. For example, we obtained supporting documentation to verify certain factual information, including documentation and analysis regarding financial solvency, exposure to troubled exchanges, regulatory compliance, security protocols and our ownership of our bitcoin. </font>

Our custodial agreement with NYDIG provides that NYDIG will be liable to us for up to an amount equal to the greater of the fair market value of the custodied assets at the time the events giving rise to such liability occurred and the fair market value of the custodied assets at the time we are notified or otherwise have actual knowledge of the events giving rise to such liability.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We also negotiate specific contractual terms and conditions with our custodians that we believe will help establish, under existing law, that our property interest in the bitcoin held by our custodians is not subject to the claims of the custodian&#8217;s creditors in the event the custodian enters bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings. Our current custodians, and intended future custodians, are U.S.-based and are subject to U.S. regulatory regimes intended to protect customers in the event that a custodian enters bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings. Our custodians are required to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act, the implementing regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department&#8217;s FinCEN, the Executive Orders and economic sanctions regulations administered by the OFAC, as well as state AML laws. However, applicable insolvency law is not fully developed with respect to the holding of digital assets in custodial accounts. If our custodially-held bitcoin were nevertheless considered to be the property of our custodians&#8217; estates in the event that any such custodians were to enter bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings, we could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of such custodians, inhibiting our ability to exercise ownership rights with respect to such bitcoin and this may ultimately result in the loss of the value related to some or all of such bitcoin. Even if we are able to prevent our bitcoin from being considered the property of a custodian&#8217;s bankruptcy estate as part of an insolvency proceeding, it is possible that we would still be delayed or may otherwise experience difficulty in accessing our bitcoin held by the affected custodian during the pendency of the insolvency proceedings. Additionally, the bitcoin we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Regardless of efforts we have made to securely store and safeguard assets, there can be no assurance that our crypto assets will not be subject to loss or other misappropriation. Although our custodians carry insurance policies with policy limits ranging from $320&#160;million to $500&#160;million to cover losses for commercial crimes such as asset theft and other covered losses, such policy limits would be shared among all of their affected customers and subject to various limitations and exclusions (such as if a loss arises due to our failure to protect our login credentials and devices). As such, the insurance that covers losses of our bitcoin holdings may cover only a small fraction of the value of the entirety of our bitcoin holdings, and there can be no guarantee that our custodians will maintain such insurance policies or that such policies will cover any or all of our losses with respect to our bitcoin. </font>

Essentially, CMS is phasing in a new Medicare Advantage risk adjustment model (V28 model) from the previous model (V24 model) over a three-year period. The V28 model does not include risk adjusted payments for PAD without complications, which payments many health insurers, including our customers, relied upon for their Medicare Advantage patients in the V24 model. 2024&#160;marks the first year the changes will be phased in as follows: in calendar year 2023, full payment under the V24 model; in calendar year 2024, 67% of the V24 model; in calendar year 2025, 33% of the V24 model. </font>

We refer to the senior debt securities and the subordinated debt securities collectively as debt securities. Each series of debt securities may have different terms. The following description summarizes the general terms and provisions of the debt securities. We will describe the specific terms of the debt securities and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions summarized below apply to any series of debt securities in the prospectus supplement relating to the series and any applicable free writing prospectus that we authorize to be delivered. When we refer to &#8220;the Company,&#8221; &#8220;we,&#8221; &#8220;our,&#8221; and &#8220;us&#8221; in this section, we mean Semler Scientific,&#160;Inc. </font>

We may issue subordinated debt securities from time to time, in one or more series, under a subordinated indenture to be entered into between us and a subordinated trustee to be named in a prospectus supplement, which we refer to as the subordinated trustee. The forms of senior indenture and subordinated indenture are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Together, the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture are referred to as the indentures and, together, the senior trustee and the subordinated trustee are referred to as the trustees. This prospectus briefly outlines some of the provisions of the indentures. The following summary of the material provisions of the indentures is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the indentures, including definitions of certain terms used in the indentures. Wherever we refer to particular sections or defined terms of the indentures, those sections or defined terms are incorporated by reference in this prospectus or the applicable prospectus supplement. You should review the indentures that are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part for additional information. As used in this prospectus, the term &#8220;debt securities&#8221; includes the debt securities being offered by this prospectus and all other debt securities issued by us under the indentures. </font>

Any matters other than the election of directors to be voted upon by the stockholders at a meeting are decided by the vote of the holders of shares of stock having a majority in voting power of the votes cast by the holders of all of the shares of stock present or represented at the meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively on such matter, except when a different vote is required by law, our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws.

Such provisions could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock and may limit the ability of stockholders to remove current management or directors or approve transactions that stockholders may deem to be in their best interest and, therefore, could adversely affect the price of our common stock. </font>

A &#8220;business combination&#8221; includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person. </font>

Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws also provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders can only be called by our board of directors. In addition, our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors. Stockholders at an annual meeting may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors, or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form to our secretary of the stockholder&#8217;s intention to bring such business before the meeting. These provisions could have the effect of delaying until the next stockholder meeting stockholder actions that are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities. These provisions also could discourage a third party from making a tender offer for our common stock because even if the third party acquired a majority of our outstanding voting stock, it would be able to take action as a stockholder, such as electing new directors or approving a merger, only at a duly called stockholders meeting and not by written consent. </font>

Our bylaws may be amended or repealed by a majority vote of our board of directors or the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the votes that all our stockholders would be entitled to cast in any annual election of directors. In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the votes that all our stockholders would be entitled to cast in any election of directors is required to amend or repeal or to adopt any provisions inconsistent with any of the provisions of our certificate of incorporation described above. </font>

This exclusive forum provision will not apply to actions arising under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive or concurrent jurisdiction.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Each debt security, unit and warrant will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular investor or by one or more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Unless the applicable prospectus supplement provides otherwise, certificated securities in definitive form and global securities will be issued in registered form. Definitive securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or your nominee must physically deliver the securities to the trustee, registrar, paying agent or other agent, as applicable. Global securities name a depositary or its nominee as the owner of the debt securities, units or warrants represented by these global securities. The depositary maintains a computerized system that will reflect each investor&#8217;s beneficial ownership of the securities through an account maintained by the investor with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may issue the debt securities of a particular series, units and warrants in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary for the global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depositary or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants&#8217; accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in global securities. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; text-align:justify; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, deposit agreement, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the applicable indenture, deposit agreement, unit agreement or warrant agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, deposit agreement, unit agreement or warrant agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, deposit agreement, unit agreement or warrant agreement, the depositary for the global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them. </font>

None of us, or any trustee, warrant agent, unit agent or other agent of ours, or any agent of any trustee, warrant agent or unit agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests. </font>

We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers or registered in &#8220;street name,&#8221; and will be the responsibility of those participants. </font>

Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the relevant trustee, warrant agent, unit agent or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary&#8217;s instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global security that had been held by the depositary.</font>
