Allegiant Travel Company

1,792 Shares of Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase up to 1,792 Shares of Common Stock
S-i





This prospectus supplement covers the offer, resale or other disposition from time to time by the selling securityholder named herein of: (i) warrants (each a “Warrant” and, collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,792 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“common stock”), and (ii) 1,792 shares of our common stock underlying the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”). We will not receive any of the proceeds from any sale of Warrants or Warrant Shares by the selling securityholder.

On April 20, 2020 (the “PSP Closing Date”), Allegiant Air, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a Payroll Support Program Agreement (the “PSP Agreement”) with the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) with respect to the grant program (the “Payroll Support Program”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). In connection with our entry into the PSP Agreement, on the PSP Closing Date, we entered into a Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) with the Treasury under which we were required to issue Warrants to the Treasury upon receipt of subsequent funding under the Payroll Support Program.

Pursuant to the PSP Agreement, we received financial assistance from Treasury in the aggregate amount of approximately $176.9 million. As partial compensation to Treasury for the provision of financial assistance under the PSP Agreement, we issued the Warrants to Treasury to purchase up to an aggregate of 27,681 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $83.33 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on April 9, 2020. The number of Warrant Shares to be issued is subject to adjustment as a result of certain anti-dilution provisions contained in the Warrants.

Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement, or a prospectus supplement with respect to an existing registration statement, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission” or the “SEC”) to register the disposition of the maximum number of Warrants and Warrant Shares. This prospectus supplement is intended to satisfy that requirement with respect to the Warrants for the final 1,792 shares issued to the Treasury on September 30, 2020.

The selling securityholder may sell the securities described in this prospectus supplement in a number of different ways and at varying prices. We provide more information about how the selling securityholder may sell its Warrants and Warrant Shares in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” on page S-10.

We may amend or supplement this prospectus supplement from time to time by filing amendments or supplements or free writing prospectuses as required. You should read the entire prospectus, this prospectus supplement and any amendments or supplements carefully before you make your investment decision.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ALGT.” On November 20, 2020, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market was $154.94 per share.

INVESTING IN OUR SECURITIES INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISK FACTORS THAT ARE REFERENCED UNDER THE HEADING “RISK FACTORS” ON PAGE S-6 OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES.

NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR DETERMINED THAT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

We are providing information to you about this offering in two parts.

This prospectus is part of an automatic “shelf” registration statement. We are a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and as such filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-227737) on October 9, 2018, which became automatically effective upon filing.

Neither we nor the selling securityholder has authorized anyone to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. If the description of this offering varies between this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, you should rely on the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. You may obtain copies of the shelf registration statement, or any document which we have filed as an exhibit to the shelf registration statement or to any other Commission filing, either from the Commission or from the Secretary of Allegiant Travel Company as described under “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus supplement. Neither we nor the selling securityholder is making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should not assume that the information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date printed on their respective covers.

The selling securityholder may offer the securities directly, through agents, or to or through underwriters. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information on this topic.

When we refer to “Allegiant,” “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” in this prospectus supplement, we mean Allegiant Travel Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise specified. When we refer to “you,” we mean the potential holders of the applicable securities.

ABOUT ALLEGIANT TRAVEL COMPANY

We are a leisure travel company that provides low-fare air travel and travel related services. We focus on leisure travelers in under-served small and medium-sized cities in the United States. Our focus on the leisure customer allows us to eliminate the significant costs associated with serving a wide variety of customers and to concentrate our product appeal on a customer base which is under-served by traditional airlines. We have consciously developed a business model which distinguishes us from the traditional airline approach:

Traditional Airline Approach
Allegiant Approach
Focus on business and leisure customers
Focus on leisure traveler
Provide high frequency service from big cities
Provide low frequency service from small and medium-sized cities
Use smaller aircraft to provide connecting service from smaller markets through hubs
Use larger jet aircraft to provide non-stop service from origination cities direct to leisure destinations
Utilize bundled pricing
Utilize unbundled pricing of air-related services and products
Sell through various intermediaries
Sell only directly to travelers
Offer flight connections
Do not offer connecting flights
Use code-share arrangements to increase passenger traffic
Do not use code-share arrangements

By unbundling our air-related services and products such as baggage fees, advance seat assignments, travel protection, change fees, priority boarding, and food and beverage purchases, which have typically been bundled by many traditional airlines, we are able to significantly lower our airfares and target leisure travelers who are more concerned with price and the ability to customize their experience with us by only purchasing the additional conveniences they value. This strategy allows us to generate significant additional ancillary revenues.

Our route network has a national footprint. As of September 30, 2020, were selling 520 routes versus 466 as of the same date in 2019, which represents an 11.6 percent increase. Our total number of origination cities and leisure destinations (for operating routes) were 97 and 29, respectively, as of September 30, 2020. In most of these small and medium-sized cities, we provide service to more than one of our leisure destinations.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol “ALGT.” Our principal executive offices are located at 1201 N. Town Center Drive, Las Vegas, Nevada 89144, and our telephone number is (702) 851-7300. We maintain a website on the Internet at http://www.allegiant.com. Information that you may find on this website is not part of this prospectus supplement.

Additional information about us is included in our reports and other documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. See “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.”

S-5


RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves risks. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors relating to an investment in our securities included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K , as well as the cautionary notes regarding forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference herein, together with all of the other information included in the prospectus, this prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference.

If any of these risks were to materialize, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks related to the offering of the Warrants.
There is no public market for the warrants being offered in this offering. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be extremely limited.

Holders of Warrants will have no rights as a common stockholder until such holders exercise their Warrants and acquire our common stock. Until a holder of a Warrant acquires shares upon exercise of a Warrant and if we do not elect the cash out option on warrant exercise, the holder of the Warrant will have no rights with respect to the common stock underlying such warrants, except as set forth in the Warrants. Upon exercise of Warrants, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

The Warrants may not have any value. The Warrants being sold in this offering have an exercise price of $83.33 per share. The Warrants will expire on the fifth anniversary from the issuance date. To the extent that the market price of our common stock does not exceed the per share exercise price of the Warrants when the holder elects to exercise the Warrants in the future, the Warrants may not have any value.


S-6


USE OF PROCEEDS

We are filing this prospectus supplement to register the offering by the selling securityholder of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares pursuant to our contractual obligation to the selling securityholder. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale or resale of the Warrants or Warrant Shares from time to time by the selling securityholder.

We have agreed to pay all costs, expenses and fees relating to the registration of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus supplement. These may include, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of our counsel and accountants, and blue sky fees and expenses. Other than certain fees and disbursements of Treasury’s counsel, the selling securityholder will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses they incur for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses they incur in disposing of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares covered hereby.

In the event the Warrants are exercised, we will not receive any cash proceeds from such exercise of warrants described in this prospectus supplement, as the Warrant Agreement provides exclusively for "net share settlement" or "net cash settlement." See "Description of Warrants—Exercise."

S-7


SELLING SECURITYHOLDER

We are registering the resale or other disposition from time to time by the selling securityholder named herein of: (i) Warrants to purchase up to 1,792 shares of our common stock and (ii) 1,792 shares of our common stock underlying the Warrants. We issued the Warrants to Treasury pursuant to the PSP Agreement, entered into with respect to the Payroll Support Program under the CARES Act.

We issued warrants identical to the Warrants to Treasury on May 29, 2020, June 30, 2020 and July 31, 2020 with the right to purchase 7,322 shares of common stock, 12,378 shares of common stock and 6,189 shares of common stock, respectively, and we issued the Warrants, with the right to purchase 1,792 shares of common stock, to Treasury on September 30, 2020. The Warrants and the other warrants issued to Treasury each have an exercise price of $83.33 per share (which was the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on April 9, 2020). All of these warrants are exercisable until the fifth anniversary of the issuance date of the applicable warrant.

Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement, or prospectus supplement to an existing registration statement, with the Commission to register the disposition of the maximum number of Warrants and Warrant Shares that may be issued to the Treasury pursuant to the Warrant Agreement and the Warrants. The warrants issued to the Treasury before September 2020 were previously registered by the filing of a prospectus supplement with the commission on September 11, 2020.

The following table sets forth information as of November 23, 2020, with respect to the selling securityholder for whom we are registering Warrants and Warrant Shares for sale to the public, the number of shares of our common stock owned by the selling securityholder prior to this offering, the percentage of common stock owned by the selling securityholder prior to this offering, the number of Warrants and Warrant Shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement, the number of shares of our common stock to be owned upon completion of this offering, assuming all such shares are sold, and the percentage of common stock owned by the selling securityholder after this offering, assuming all such shares are sold.

In the table below, the number of shares of common stock that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement is the number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Warrants. Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act, this prospectus also covers any additional shares of our common stock that may become issuable in connection with shares of common stock by reason of a stock dividend, stock split or other similar transaction effected without us receiving any cash or other value, which results in an increase in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding.

As used in this prospectus supplement, the term “selling securityholder” includes the selling securityholder listed below, and any donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest selling Warrants or Warrant Shares received after the date of this prospectus supplement from the selling securityholder as a gift, pledge, or other non-sale related transfer. The number of shares in the column “Number of Shares Being Offered” represents all of the Warrant Shares that the selling securityholder may offer under this prospectus supplement. The selling securityholder may sell some, all or none of their Warrants or Warrant Shares. The selling securityholder may sell or transfer all or a portion of their Warrants or Warrant Shares pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We do not know how long the selling securityholder will hold the Warrants or Warrant Shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling securityholder regarding the sale of any of the Warrants or Warrant Shares. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, Treasury must provide 30 days’ notice to us prior to the sale of the Warrants or any portion thereof.

The percentage of shares beneficially owned prior to the offering is based on 16,389,481 shares of our common stock outstanding as of October 30, 2020.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling securityholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of its Warrant Shares covered hereby on the Nasdaq Global Select 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 prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The selling securityholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the Warrants or Warrant Shares:

through underwriters, brokers or dealers (who may act as agent or principal and who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling securityholder, the purchaser or other persons effecting such sales) for resale to the public or to institutional investors at various times;
through negotiated transactions, including but not limited to block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the Warrant Shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices;
in privately negotiated transactions other than exchange or quotation service transactions;
through settlement of short sales, or sales of put, call or other types of options, forward delivery contracts, swaps, offerings of structured equity-linked securities, or other derivative securities or transactions;
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling securityholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
through hedging transactions, including but not limited to:
transactions with a broker-dealer or its affiliate, whereby the broker-dealer or its affiliate will engage in short sales of shares and may use shares to close out its short position;
options or other types of transactions that require the delivery of shares to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who will then resell or transfer the shares; or
loans or pledges of shares to a broker-dealer or an affiliate, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares;
through ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers;
by gifts to charitable organizations, who may in turn sell such shares in accordance with the methods described herein;
through a combination of any such methods of sale; or
by any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling securityholder may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus supplement.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling securityholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.

In connection with the sale of the Warrants or Warrant Shares, the selling securityholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions it assumes. The selling securityholder may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out its short positions or to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling securityholder 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 Warrants and Warrant Shares offered by this prospectus supplement, which Warrants and Warrant Shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus supplement (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
S-10



The selling securityholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) 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 securityholder has acknowledged that it understands its obligations to comply with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act and the rules thereunder relating to stock manipulation, particularly Regulation M.

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the Warrants and Warrant Shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholder against certain losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and the selling securityholder may be entitled to contribution.

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling securityholder and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale by the selling securityholder of the offered securities.

We have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part continuously effective and in compliance with the Securities Act until, subject to certain exceptions, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares: (i) have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement; (ii) are able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation on volume or manner of sale; (iii) cease to be outstanding; or (iv) have been sold in a private transaction in which the transferor’s rights under the Warrant Agreement are not assigned to the transferee of the securities.

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 securityholder 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 shares of the common stock by the selling securityholder or any other person. We will make copies of the base prospectus and this prospectus supplement available to the selling securityholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of the base prospectus and this prospectus supplement to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act, unless an exemption is available).

There can be no assurance that the selling securityholder will sell any or all of the Warrants or Warrant Shares registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part.

Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part, the Warrant Shares will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

S-11


DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

On April 20, 2020, Allegiant Air, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into the PSP Agreement with Treasury with respect to the Payroll Support Program under the CARES Act. In connection with our entry into the PSP Agreement, on the PSP Closing Date, we entered into the Warrant Agreement with Treasury.

Pursuant to the PSP Agreement, we received financial assistance from Treasury in the aggregate amount of approximately $176.9 million. As partial compensation to Treasury for the provision of financial assistance under the PSP Agreement, we issued certain warrants (including the Warrants) to Treasury to purchase up to an aggregate of 27,681 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $83.33 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on April 9, 2020. The number of Warrant Shares to be issued is subject to adjustment as a result of certain anti-dilution provisions contained in the Warrants.

The following is a summary of the general terms of the Warrants. This description is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Warrant Agreement and included form of Warrant filed as Exhibit 10.3 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 4, 2020.

Exercisability. The Warrants may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time on or after their date of issuance, by delivering to us a written notice of election to exercise the Warrants. The Warrants are exercisable until the fifth anniversary of September 30, 2020, the issuance date of the Warrants.

Exercise Price. The Warrants have an exercise price of $83.33 per share (which was the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on April 9, 2020).

Exercise. Upon our receiving a notice of exercise from a holder of the Warrants, we may choose whether to settle through net cash settlement or net share settlement. The holder of the Warrants does not elect whether the Warrants are settled in cash or in shares.

If we choose to settle through net cash settlement, the holder of the Warrants will not receive any shares of our common stock from the exercise; the holder will be entitled to receive cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A-B) by (C), where:

(A) = the average market price of a share of our common stock for the prior 15 day trading period (the “Average Market Price”);

(B) = the exercise price per share of common stock;

(C) = the number of shares of common stock as to which the Warrant has been exercised.

If we choose to settle through net share settlement, the warrant holder will be entitled to a number of shares of our common stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A-B)/A by C, where the letters have the same meanings indicated above.

Adjustments to Number of Shares and Exercise Price. The Warrants provide for proportional adjustment of the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the per share exercise price upon the occurrence of certain events, such as stock splits, combinations, reverse stock splits and similar events. The Warrants also contain certain anti-dilution protections providing for the adjustment of the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the per share exercise price due to certain issuances of securities or certain distributions to securityholders.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants are freely transferable. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, holders of the Warrants must provide us at least 30 days’ notice prior to selling the Warrants pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part.
S-12



Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or Warrant Agreement or by virtue of a holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holders of Warrants do not have rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Warrants.

Business Combinations. In the case of any merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar transaction that requires approval of our shareholders (“Business Combination”) or reclassification of our common stock, a holder’s right to receive our common stock upon exercise of the Warrants shall be converted into the right to exercise the Warrants to acquire the number of shares of stock, other securities or property that our common stock would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of the Business Combination or reclassification.

No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of our common stock will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. If, upon exercise of the Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of common stock to be issued to the holder of the Warrants and pay such holder cash in lieu of such fractional interest in our common stock.

No Listing. We do not plan on applying to list the Warrants on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized trading system.

Registration. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, we have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part continuously effective and in compliance with the Securities Act until, subject to certain exceptions, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares: (i) have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement; (ii) are able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation on volume or manner of sale; (iii) cease to be outstanding; or (iv) have been sold in a private transaction in which the transferor’s rights under the Warrant Agreement are not assigned to the transferee of the securities.

Indemnification. Under the Warrants and Warrant Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, we agreed to indemnify the holders of the Warrants and certain related persons and entities against any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses, arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement or any document contained therein prepared by us for use by the holders, including the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part.

Allegiant Travel Company

We are a leisure travel company focused on providing travel services and products to residents of under-served cities in the United States. We were founded in 1997 and, in conjunction with our initial public offering in 2006, we incorporated in the state of Nevada. Our unique business model provides diversified revenue streams from various travel services and product offerings which distinguish us from other travel companies. We operate a low-cost passenger airline marketed primarily to leisure travelers in under-served cities, allowing us to sell air transportation both on a stand-alone basis and bundled with the sale of air-related and third party services and products. In addition, we provide air transportation under fixed fee flight arrangements. Our developed route network, pricing philosophy, advertising, and product offerings built around relationships with premier leisure companies, are all intended to appeal to leisure travelers and make it attractive for them to purchase air travel and related services and products from us.

Below is a brief description of the travel services and products we provide to our customers:

Passenger air transportation. We provide scheduled air transportation on limited-frequency, nonstop flights predominantly between under-served cities and popular leisure destinations. As of September 1, 2018, our operating fleet consisted of 20 MD-80 aircraft and 74 Airbus A320 series aircraft and we were selling travel on 411 routes to 118 cities.

Air-related ancillary products and services. We provide unbundled air-related services and products in conjunction with air transportation for an additional cost to customers. These optional air-related services and products include a customer convenience fee, baggage fees, advance seat assignments, our own travel protection product, change fees, use of our call center for purchases, priority boarding, food and beverage purchases on board, and other air-related services.

Third party ancillary products and services. We offer third party travel products such as hotel rooms, ground transportation (rental cars and hotel shuttle products) and attractions (show and tour tickets) for sale to our passengers. Revenue related to our co-branded credit card is also accounted for in this category.

Fixed fee contract air transportation. We provide air transportation through fixed fee agreements and charter service on a year-round and ad-hoc basis.

Other revenue. We may temporarily act as a lessor as an avenue to opportunistically acquire aircraft and/or engines. Upon the expiration of a lease, we would expect to operate the asset(s) ourselves. We are also currently leasing spare engines to a third party and may choose to act as lessor temporarily in the future on an opportunistic basis. We are currently offering a management solution to golf courses around the country, the revenue from which is reflected in this line item.

Our announced development of Sunseeker Resorts in Southwest Florida exemplifies our expansion in the travel and leisure industry. We expect to expand our travel and leisure offerings in the future.

We have developed a unique business model that focuses on leisure travelers in small and medium-sized cities. The business model has evolved as our experienced management team has looked differently at the traditional way business has been conducted in the airline and travel industries. Our focus on the leisure customer allows us to eliminate the significant costs associated with serving a wide variety of customers and to concentrate our product appeal on a customer base which is under-served by traditional airlines. We have consciously developed a business model which distinguishes us from the traditional airline approach:

Traditional Airline ApproachAllegiant Approach
Focus on business and leisure travelersFocus on leisure travelers
Provide high frequency service from big citiesProvide low frequency service from small and medium-sized cities
Use smaller aircraft to provide connecting service from smaller markets through hubsUse larger jet aircraft to provide nonstop service from under-served cities direct to leisure destinations
Utilize bundled pricingUtilize unbundled pricing of air-related services and products
Sell through various intermediariesSell only directly to travelers
Offer flight connectionsDo not offer connecting flights
Use code-share arrangements to increase passenger trafficDo not use code-share arrangements

Risk Factors

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks referenced below before making an investment decision:
the information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus;
the information contained in or incorporated by reference into any prospectus supplement relating to specific offerings of securities;
the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our most recent fiscal year and in any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which we have filed since our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, each of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus; and
other risks and other information that may be contained in, or incorporated by reference from, other filings we make with the SEC, including any prospectus supplement relating to specific offerings of securities.

Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price or value of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and investors may lose all or part of your investment.

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

We may register securities covered by this prospectus for re-offers and resales by any selling security holders who may be named in a prospectus supplement. Because we are a well-known seasoned issuer, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, we may add secondary sales of securities by any selling security holders by filing a prospectus supplement with the SEC. We may register these securities to permit selling security holders to resell their securities when they deem appropriate. A selling security holder may resell all, a portion or none of their securities at any time and from time to time. We may register those securities for sale through an underwriter or other plan of distribution as set forth in a prospectus supplement. See “Plan of Distribution.” Selling security holders may also sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of some or all of their securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We may pay all expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the securities owned by the selling security holders, other than underwriting fees, discounts or commissions, which will be borne by the selling security holders. In connection with any sale of securities by a selling security holder, we will provide a prospectus supplement naming the selling security holders, the amount of securities to be registered and sold and any other terms of the securities being sold by a selling security holder.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

The ratio of our earnings to our fixed charges was as follows for each of the periods indicated:
Six months ended June 30,Year ended December 31,
201820172016201520142013
Ratio of earnings to fixed charges5.73x5.28x11.41x13.02x6.72x11.77x

The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing fixed charges into income before income taxes, plus fixed charges less interest capitalized, earnings from joint ventures, pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests and plus amortization of capitalized interest. Fixed charges include both interest expensed and capitalized, including amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount on debt as well as the interest factor of operating lease expense. The interest factor of operating lease expense is based on an estimate which we consider to be a reasonable approximation.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have no preferred stock outstanding.

SECURITIES WE MAY OFFER

The descriptions of the securities contained in this prospectus, together with the applicable prospectus supplements, summarize the material terms and provisions of the various types of securities that we may offer. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any securities the particular terms of the securities offered by that prospectus supplement. If we indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, the terms of the securities may differ from the terms we have summarized below. We will also include in the prospectus supplement information, when applicable, about material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the securities, and the securities exchange, if any, on which the securities will be listed.

We may sell from time to time, in one or more offerings, any one or more of the following:

common stock;
preferred stock;
debt securities, including convertible debt instruments;
depositary shares;
warrants to purchase any of the securities listed above;
stock purchase contracts or stock purchase units;
units, consisting of one or more shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock, depositary shares, and warrants, or;
any combination of the foregoing securities.

In this prospectus, we refer to the common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts, stock purchase units, and units collectively as “securities.”

7


If we issue debt securities at a discount from their original stated principal amount, then, for purposes of calculating the total dollar amount of all securities issued under this prospectus, we will treat the initial offering price of the debt securities as the total original principal amount of the debt securities.

This prospectus may not be used to consummate a sale of securities unless it is accompanied by a prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus.


USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless we inform you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, the net proceeds from this offering will be used to purchase additional aircraft consistent with our growth strategy and acquisition criteria, for the development of Sunseeker Resorts, for other capital expenditures, for debt repayment, for stock repurchases under existing board authorized program or under share repurchase programs that may be approved in the future, to fund working capital and general corporate purposes. We may apply proceeds of this offering to the purchase of aircraft under contract or for aircraft we identify for purchase in the future and to the extent we choose not to finance the purchase price at the time of or after purchase. Pending the use of the net proceeds, we intend to invest these funds in investment-grade, short-term interest bearing securities.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of securities by selling security holders.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES AND GUARANTEES

The following description of the terms of the debt securities and guarantees sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities and guarantees to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the debt securities and guarantees offered by any prospectus supplement and the extent, if any, to which these general provisions may apply to those debt securities and guarantees will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those debt securities and guarantees. Accordingly, for a description of the terms of a particular issue of debt securities and guarantees, reference must be made to both the prospectus supplement relating thereto and to the following description.

When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in a supplement to this prospectus. We will also indicate in the supplement to what extent the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities.

We may issue debt securities either separately, or together with, or upon the conversion or exercise of or in exchange for, other securities described in this prospectus. Debt securities may be our senior, senior subordinated or subordinated obligations and, unless otherwise specified in a supplement to this prospectus, the debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and may be issued in one or more series.

The debt securities will be issued under an indenture between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. We have summarized select portions of the indenture below. The summary is not complete. The form of the indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement and you should read the indenture for provisions that may be important to you. In the summary below, we have included references to the section numbers of the indenture so that you can easily locate these provisions. Capitalized terms used in the summary and not defined herein have the meanings specified in the indenture.

For the purposes of this “Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees” section of this prospectus, references to “Allegiant,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Allegiant Travel Company only, excluding our subsidiaries, unless expressly stated or the context otherwise requires.

We may not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets to, any person (a “successor person”) unless:

we are the surviving corporation or the successor person (if other than the Company) is a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of any U.S. domestic jurisdiction and expressly assumes our obligations on the debt securities and under the indenture; and
immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default or Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing.

Notwithstanding the above, any subsidiary of the Company may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties to the Company. (Section 5.1)

Events of Default

Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

10


default in the payment of any interest upon any debt security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of the payment is deposited by us with the trustee or with a paying agent prior to the expiration of the 30-day period);
default in the payment of principal of any security of that series at its maturity;
default in the performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty by us in the indenture (other than a covenant or warranty that has been included in the indenture solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities other than that series), which default continues uncured for a period of 60 days after we receive written notice from the trustee or we and the trustee receive written notice from the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series as provided in the indenture;
certain voluntary or involuntary events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Allegiant; and
any other Event of Default provided with respect to debt securities of that series that is described in the applicable prospectus supplement. (Section 6.1)

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. (Section 6.1) The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our subsidiaries outstanding from time to time.

If an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the trustee if given by the holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of (or, if the debt securities of that series are discount securities, that portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all debt securities of that series. In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal (or such specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind and annul the acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture. (Section 6.2) We refer you to the prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

The indenture provides that the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture unless the trustee receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any cost, liability or expense which might be incurred by it in exercising such right of power. (Section 7.1(e)) Subject to certain rights of the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of that series. (Section 6.12)

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy under the indenture, unless:

that holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to debt securities of that series; and
the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series have made written request, and offered indemnity or security satisfactory to the trustee, to the trustee to institute the proceeding as trustee, and the trustee has not received from the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series a direction inconsistent with that request and has failed to institute the proceeding within 60 days. (Section 6.7)

Notwithstanding any other provision in the indenture, the holder of any debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment. (Section 6.8)

The indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of our fiscal year, to furnish to the trustee a statement as to compliance with the indenture. (Section 4.3) If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the securities of any series and if it is known to a responsible officer of the trustee, the trustee shall mail to each Securityholder of the securities of that
11


series notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. The indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any series of any Default or Event of Default (except in payment on any debt securities of that series) with respect to debt securities of that series if it in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the holders of those debt securities. (Section 7.5)


Modification and Waiver

We and the trustee may modify and amend the indenture or the debt securities of any series without the consent of any holder of any debt security:

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;
to comply with covenants in the indenture described above under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets”;
to provide for uncertificated securities in addition to or in place of certificated securities;
to add guarantees with respect to the debt securities of any series or secure the debt securities of any series;
to surrender any of our rights or powers under the indenture;
to add covenants or events of default for the benefit of holders of debt securities of any series;
to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of debt securities;
to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of debt securities of any series as permitted by the indenture;
to effect the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the debt securities of any series and to add to or change any of the provisions of the indenture to provide for or facilitate administration by more than one trustee; or
to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. (Section 9.1)

We may also modify and amend the indenture with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or amendments. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of the holders of each affected debt security then outstanding if that amendment will:

reduce the amount of debt securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;
reduce the stated rate of interest or extend the stated time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any debt security;
reduce the principal of, or premium on, or change the fixed maturity of any debt security or reduce the amount of, or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of any security (except any provisions relating to the number of days of notice to be given in the event of a redemption of a security which may be amended with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding securities of the series of securities affected);
reduce the principal amount of discount securities payable upon acceleration of maturity;
waive a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on any debt security (except a rescission of acceleration of the debt securities of any series by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of that series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);
make the principal of or premium or interest on any debt security payable in currency other than that stated in the debt security;
make any change to certain provisions of the indenture relating to, among other things, the right of holders of debt securities to receive payment of the principal of, premium and interest on those debt securities and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and to waivers or amendments; or
waive a redemption payment with respect to any debt security. (Section 9.3)


Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive our compliance with provisions of the indenture. (Section 9.2) The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series; provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration. (Section 6.13)

Defeasance of Debt Securities and Certain Covenants in Certain Circumstances

Satisfaction and Discharge. The indenture provides that we may terminate our obligations with respect to a series of debt securities issued under the indenture, when:

Either:
all such debt securities authenticated and delivered (other than debt securities that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the trustee for cancellation; or

all such securities that have not been delivered to the trustee for cancellation

have become due and payable; or
will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year; or
have been called for redemption or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the trustee in the name, and at the expense, of us; or
are deemed paid and discharged pursuant to legal defeasance provisions of this indenture (Section 8.3)

and we, in the case of the first, second or third bullet point above, have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the trustee as trust funds in an amount of money or U.S. government obligations sufficient for the purpose of paying and discharging the entire indebtedness on such debt securities not theretofore delivered to the trustee for cancellation, for principal and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of securities which have become due and payable on or prior to the date of such deposit) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be;

and we have delivered to the trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the indenture have been complied with.

Legal Defeasance. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, we may be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the debt securities of any series (subject to certain exceptions). We will be so discharged upon the deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities.

This discharge may occur only if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that we have received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling or, since the date of execution of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the holders of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred. (Section 8.3)

Defeasance of Certain Covenants. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, upon compliance with certain conditions:

we may omit to comply with the covenant described under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” and certain other covenants set forth in the indenture, as well as any additional covenants which may be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement; and
any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of that series (“covenant defeasance”).

The conditions include:

13



depositing with the trustee money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal of, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities; and
delivering to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and related covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit and related covenant defeasance had not occurred. (Section 8.4)



Covenant Defeasance and Events of Default. In the event we exercise our option to effect covenant defeasance with respect to any series of debt securities and the debt securities of that series are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the amount of money and/or U.S. government obligations or foreign government obligations on deposit with the trustee will be sufficient to pay amounts due on the debt securities of that series at the time of their stated maturity but may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on the debt securities of that series at the time of the acceleration resulting from the Event of Default. However, we shall remain liable for those payments. (Section 8.4)

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
    
The following description of our common stock and preferred stock will apply generally to any future common stock or preferred stock that we may offer, but may not be complete. We will describe the particular terms of any class or series of these securities in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of these securities also may be affected by the general corporate law of the State of Nevada. For more information regarding the common stock and preferred stock that may be offered by this prospectus, please refer to our articles of incorporation and our amended bylaws. The articles of incorporation and bylaws are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

This section contains a description of our capital stock. The following summary of the terms of our capital stock is not meant to be complete and is qualified by reference to our articles of incorporation. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Authorized Capitalization

Our capital structure consists of 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock. As of September 1, 2018, there were 16,150,699 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

14


Common Stock

The holders of our common stock are entitled to dividends as our board of directors may declare from time to time from legally available funds subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any shares of our preferred stock that we may issue in the future. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on any matter to be voted upon by stockholders, subject to the restrictions described below under the caption “Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Nevada Law and Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws-Limited Voting by Foreign Owners”.

Our articles of incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting in connection with the election of directors. Our bylaws provide that in an uncontested election, directors are elected by majority vote. In the event of any contested election, directors will be elected by a plurality of the shares voting once a quorum is present. No holder of our common stock will have any preemptive right to subscribe for any shares of capital stock issued in the future.

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share, on a pro rata basis, all assets remaining after payment to creditors and subject to prior distribution rights of any shares of preferred stock that we may issue in the future. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

As of the date of this prospectus, no shares of our preferred stock are outstanding. Under our articles of incorporation, our board of directors, without further action by our stockholders, will be authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series. The board may fix the rights, preferences and privileges of the preferred stock, along with any limitations or restrictions, including:

the number of shares of the series, which number may thereafter be increased or decreased by our board of directors (but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding);
whether dividends, if any, will be cumulative or noncumulative and the dividend rate of the series;
the conditions under which and the dates upon which dividends will be payable, and the relation which those dividends will bear to the dividends payable on any other class or classes of stock;
the redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;
the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;
the amounts payable on and the preferences of shares of the series, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of our company;
whether the shares of the series will be convertible into shares of any other class or series, or any other security, of our company or any other corporation, and, if so, the specification of that other class or series or that other security, the conversion price or prices or rate or rates, any adjustments to that price or those prices or that rate or those rates, the date or dates as of which those shares will be convertible and all other terms and conditions upon which the conversion may be made;
restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series;
the voting rights, if any, of the holders of shares of that series.

The preferred stock could have voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect, under certain circumstances, of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of our company. We currently have no plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

We believe the ability of our board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock will provide us with flexibility in structuring possible future financings and in meeting other corporate needs that might arise. Our authorized shares of preferred stock will be available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless that action is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded. The Nasdaq Global Select Market currently requires stockholder approval as a prerequisite to listing shares in several instances, including sales or issuances of common stock or securities convertible into, or exercisable for, common stock equal to or in excess of 20% or more of the outstanding stock determined before the proposed issuance.

Although our board of directors has no intention at the present time of doing so, it could issue a series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of that series, impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. Our board of directors may decide to issue those shares based on its judgment as to the best interests of our company and our stockholders. Our board of directors, in so acting, could issue preferred stock having terms that could discourage a potential acquiror from
15


making an unsolicited and unwanted acquisition attempt through which that acquiror may be able to change the composition of our board of directors, including a tender offer or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then current market price of that stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Nevada Law and Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

“Effect of Nevada Anti-takeover Statutes”. We are subject to anti-takeover provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), including NRS 78.411 through 78.444, inclusive (the “Business Combination Statute”) with respect to combinations with interested stockholders, and NRS 78.378 through 78.3793 (the “Control Share Statute”), with respect to the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain corporations doing business in the state.

Business Combinations. In general, the Business Combination Statute prohibits a Nevada corporation that is publicly traded with 200 or more stockholders of record from engaging in any certain business “combinations” with any “interested stockholder” for a period of two years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless the combination meets all of the requirements of the articles of incorporation of the Nevada corporation and, prior to the date that the stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” either: (i) the board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; or (ii) the combination is approved by the corporation’s directors and stockholders owning at least 60% of the voting power not owned by the interested stockholder or its affiliates. After the two-year period following the date that the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, business combinations may also be prohibited unless approved by the corporation's directors or a majority of the stockholders other than the interested stockholder and its affiliates, or unless the price and terms of the transaction meet the criteria set forth in the statute. The Business Combination Statute does not apply to an interested stockholder after the date four years after the person became an interested stockholder.

The NRS defines a “combination” subject to the statute to include the following:

any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder or any other corporation which is, or after the transaction would be, an affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder;
any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder or any affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder if the assets transferred have a market value equal to more than 5% of all of the assets of the corporation or more than 5% of the value of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation or represent more than 10% of the earning power or net income of the corporation;
subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation with a market value of 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation;
the adoption of a plan of liquidation under any arrangement with the interested stockholder or any affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder;
subject to certain exceptions, any reclassification of securities, recapitalization, merger or consolidation, or other transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder or any affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; or
the receipt by the interested stockholder or any affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation.

In general, the NRS defines an interested stockholder as any entity or person beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by any of these entities or persons.

We have not opted out of the Business Combination Statute in our Articles of Incorporation, so the law may have an anti-takeover effect for transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors, including discouraging takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of our common stock.

Control Share Acquisitions. The Control Share Statute limits the voting rights of certain acquired shares in a corporation. The provisions apply to any acquisition of outstanding voting securities of a Nevada corporation (an “issuing corporation”) that has 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of which have addresses in Nevada, and conducts business in Nevada directly or through an affiliate. An acquiring person and those acting in association with such person may, under certain circumstances, be prohibited from voting such person’s “control shares” if the person acquires a proportion of the outstanding voting power
16


exceeding one of the following thresholds: (i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third; (ii) one-third or more but less than a majority; or (iii) a majority or more. The control shares acquired in such an acquisition or within 90 days prior to triggering the statute are denied voting rights unless a majority of the stockholders approve the granting of such voting rights. If an issuing corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect by the tenth day following the acquisition so provide, the voting securities acquired may be redeemed, at the average price paid for the control shares, by an issuing corporation at the average price paid for the securities if (i) the acquiring person has not given a timely information statement to an issuing corporation or (ii) the control shares are not granted full voting rights by stockholders. If acquiring person obtains a majority voting interest and the security holders accord voting rights to such acquiring person, a stockholder who did not vote in favor of the voting rights may rights as a dissenter to demand payment of the fair value of such stockholder’s shares.

We may amend our by-laws to opt-out of the Control Share Statute by amending our by-laws either before or within ten days after a relevant acquisition, but we have not, to date, done so for any acquisition.

Articles of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws include provisions that may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal that a stockholder might consider favorable, including a proposal that might result in the payment of a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders. These provisions are summarized in the following paragraphs.

Authorized but Unissued or Undesignated Capital Stock. Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. No preferred stock has yet to be designated. As of September 1, 2018, we had outstanding 16,150,699 shares of common stock. The authorized but unissued (and in the case of preferred stock, undesignated) stock may be issued by the board of directors in one or more transactions. In this regard, our articles of incorporation grant the board of directors broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized and unissued preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the board's authority described above could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock and adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of such holders and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control. The board of directors does not currently intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of preferred stock, unless otherwise required by law.

Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by our board of directors, by our chairman of the board of directors or by our chief executive officer.

Notice Procedures. Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with regard to all stockholder proposals to be brought before meetings of our stockholders, including proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors, the removal of directors and amendments to our articles of incorporation or bylaws. These procedures provide that notice of such stockholder proposals must be timely given in writing to our secretary prior to the meeting. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received by our secretary not less than 120 days prior to the meeting. The notice must contain certain information specified in the bylaws.

Other Anti-Takeover Provisions. Certain provisions of our long-term incentive plan may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or unsolicited acquisition proposals as vesting of stock grants may accelerate upon a change of control.

Limitation of Director Liability. Our articles of incorporation limit the liability of our directors (in their capacity as directors but not in their capacity as officers) to us or our stockholders to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Specifically, our directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of a director's fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or
under Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which relates to unlawful payments of dividends.

Indemnification Arrangements. Our bylaws provide that our directors and officers shall be indemnified and provide for the advancement to them of expenses in connection with actual or threatened proceedings and claims arising out of their status as such to the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that provide them with rights to indemnification and expense advancement to the fullest extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statutes.

Limited Voting by Foreign Owners. To comply with restrictions imposed by federal law on foreign ownership of U.S. airlines, our articles of incorporation and bylaws restrict voting of shares of our capital stock by non-U.S. citizens. The restrictions imposed by federal law currently require that no more than 25% of our voting stock be voted, directly or indirectly, by persons who are not U.S. citizens, and that our president and at least two-thirds of the members of our board of directors be U.S. citizens.
17


Our articles of incorporation provide that no shares of our capital stock may be voted by or at the direction of non-U.S. citizens unless such shares are registered on a separate stock record, which we refer to as the foreign stock record. Our bylaws further provide that no shares of our capital stock will be registered on the foreign stock record if the amount so registered would exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law.

Listing

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ALGT.”

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. Its address is 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11711.

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

The following summary of certain provisions of depositary shares does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the depositary agreement that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of any depositary shares.

This section describes the general terms and provisions of depositary shares that may be offered by us. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the specific terms of the depositary shares offered by that prospectus supplement and any general terms outlined in this section that will not apply to those depositary shares.

We may elect to offer fractional shares of preferred stock rather than full shares of preferred stock. In that event, we will issue to the public receipts for depositary shares, and each of these depositary shares will represent a fraction (to be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement) of a share of a particular series of preferred stock.

The shares of any series of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares will be deposited under a deposit agreement between us and a bank or trust company selected by us. The depositary will have its principal office in the United States and a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, each owner of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock underlying the depositary share, to all the rights and preferences of the preferred stock underlying that depositary share. Those rights may include dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights.

The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued under a deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those persons purchasing the fractional shares of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares in accordance with the terms of the offering. The following description of the material terms of the deposit agreement, the depositary shares and the depositary receipts is only a summary and you should refer to the applicable prospectus supplement and to the forms of the deposit agreement and depositary receipts that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of the specific depositary shares.

Pending the preparation of definitive engraved depositary receipts, the depositary may, upon our written order, issue temporary depositary receipts substantially identical to the definitive depositary receipts but not in definitive form. These temporary depositary receipts entitle their holders to all the rights of definitive depositary receipts. Temporary depositary receipts will then be exchangeable for definitive depositary receipts at our expense.

Dividends and Other Distributions

The depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received with respect to the underlying stock to the record holders of depositary shares in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by those holders.

If there is a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to the record holders of depositary shares that are entitled to receive the distribution, unless the depositary determines that it is not feasible to make the distribution. If this occurs, the depositary may, with our approval, sell the property and distribute the net proceeds from the sale to the applicable holders.

Withdrawal of Underlying Preferred Stock
18



Unless we say otherwise in a prospectus supplement, holders may surrender depositary receipts at the principal office of the depositary and, upon payment of any unpaid amount due to the depositary, be entitled to receive the number of whole shares of underlying preferred stock and all money and other property represented by the related depositary shares. We will not issue any partial shares of preferred stock. If the holder delivers depositary receipts evidencing a number of depositary shares that represent more than a whole number of shares of preferred stock, the depositary will issue a new depositary receipt evidencing the excess number of depositary shares to that holder.

Redemption of Depositary Shares

If a series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares is subject to redemption, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the depositary resulting from the redemption, in whole or in part, of that series of underlying stock held by the depositary. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable with respect to that series of underlying stock. Whenever we redeem shares of underlying stock that are held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of depositary shares representing the shares of underlying stock so redeemed. If fewer than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or proportionately or other equitable method, as may be determined by the depositary.

Voting    

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the underlying stock are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the depositary shares underlying the preferred stock. Each record holder of the depositary shares on the record date (which will be the same date as the record date for the underlying stock) will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of the underlying stock represented by that holder’s depositary shares. The depositary will then try, as far as practicable, to vote the number of shares of preferred stock underlying those depositary shares in accordance with those instructions, and we will agree to take all actions which may be deemed necessary by the depositary to enable the depositary to do so. The depositary will not vote the underlying shares to the extent it does not receive specific instructions with respect to the depositary shares representing the preferred stock.

Conversion or Exchange of Preferred Stock

If the deposited preferred stock is convertible into or exchangeable for other securities, the following will apply. The depositary shares, as such, will not be convertible into or exchangeable for such other securities. Rather, any holder of the depositary shares may surrender the related depositary receipts, together with any amounts payable by the holder in connection with the conversion or the exchange, to the depositary with written instructions to cause conversion or exchange of the preferred stock represented by the depositary shares into or for such other securities. If only some of the depositary shares are to be converted or exchanged, a new depositary receipt or receipts will be issued for any depositary shares not to be converted or exchanged.

Amendment and Termination of the Deposit Agreement

The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares and any provision of the deposit agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between us and the depositary. However, any amendment which materially and adversely alters the rights of the holders of depositary shares will not be effective unless the amendment has been approved by the holders of at least a majority of the depositary shares then outstanding. The deposit agreement may be terminated by us upon not less than 60 days’ notice whereupon the depositary shall deliver or make available to each holder of depositary shares, upon surrender of the depositary receipts held by such holder, the number of whole or fractional shares of preferred stock represented by such receipts. The deposit agreement will automatically terminate if (a) all outstanding depositary shares have been redeemed or converted into or exchanged for any other securities into or for which the underlying preferred stock is convertible exchangeable or (b) there has been a final distribution of the underlying stock in connection with our liquidation, dissolution or winding up and the underlying stock has been distributed to the holders of depositary receipts.

Charges of Depositary

We will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. We will also pay charges of the depositary in connection with its duties under the deposit agreement. Holders of depositary receipts will pay other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and those other charges, including a fee for any permitted withdrawal of shares of underlying stock upon surrender of depositary receipts, as are expressly provided in the deposit agreement to be for their accounts.
19



Reports

The depositary will forward to holders of depositary receipts all reports and communications from us that we deliver to the depositary and that we are required to furnish to the holders of the underlying stock.

Limitation on Liability

Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if either of us is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstance beyond our control in performing our respective obligations under the deposit agreement. Our obligations and those of the depositary will be limited to performance in good faith of our respective duties under the deposit agreement. Neither we nor the depositary will be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any depositary shares or underlying stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. We and the depositary may rely upon written advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by persons presenting underlying stock for deposit, holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.

In the event the depositary receives conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any holders of depositary shares, on the one hand, and us, on the other, the depositary will act on our claims, requests or instructions.

Resignation and Removal of Depositary

The depositary may resign at any time by delivering notice to us of its election to resign. We may remove the depositary at any time. Any resignation or removal will take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of the appointment. The successor depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

The following summary of certain provisions of warrants does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the warrant agreement that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of any warrants.

The following is a general description of the terms of the warrants we may issue from time to time. Particular terms of any warrants we offer will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to such warrants.

General

We may issue warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, depositary shares, or any combination thereof. Such warrants may be issued independently or together with any such securities and may be attached or separate from such securities. We may issue each series of warrants under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent.

A prospectus supplement will describe the particular terms of any series of warrants we may issue, including the following:

the title of such warrants;
the aggregate number of such warrants;
the price or prices at which such warrants will be issued;
the designation and terms of the securities purchasable upon exercise of such warrants and the number of such securities issuable upon exercise of such warrants;
the price at which and the currency or currencies, including composite currencies, in which the securities purchasable upon exercise of such warrants may be purchased;
the date on which the right to exercise such warrants shall commence and the date on which such right will expire;
whether such warrants will be issued in registered form or bearer form;
if applicable, the minimum or maximum amount of such warrants which may be exercised at any one time;
if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which such warrants are issued and the number of such warrants issued with each such security;
if applicable, the date on and after which such warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;
20


the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreement and the warrants;
terms, procedures, and limitations relating to the transferability, exchange and exercise of such warrants;
the terms of any rights to redeem or call, or accelerate the expiration of, the warrants;
information with respect to book-entry procedures, if any;
if applicable, a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations;
any other terms of such warrants.

Exercise of Warrants

Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase the securities that we specify in the applicable prospectus supplement at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the expiration date we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant or other applicable certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required amount to us or the warrant agent, as applicable, in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth on the reverse side of the applicable warrant certificate and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver upon exercise.

Upon receipt of the required payment and the warrant or other applicable certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining amount of warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender securities as all or part of the exercise price for warrants.

Enforceability of Rights By Holders of Warrants

Each warrant agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may, without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action its right to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, its warrants.

Amendments and Supplements to Warrant Agreement

We and the warrant agent may amend or supplement the warrant agreement for a series of warrants without the consent of the holders of the warrants issued thereunder to effect changes that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the warrants and that do not materially and adversely affect the interests of the holders of the warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF STOCK PURCHASE CONTRACTS AND STOCK PURCHASE UNITS

The following summary of certain provisions of stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the stock purchase contract or stock purchase unit, as applicable, that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of any such securities.

The following is a general description of the terms of the stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units we may issue from time to time. Particular terms of any stock purchase contracts and/or stock purchase units we offer will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to such stock purchase contracts and/or stock purchase units. Material U.S. federal income tax consideration applicable to the stock purchase contracts and the stock purchase units will also be discussed in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Stock Purchase Contracts

We may issue stock purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from us, and obligating us to sell to holders, a specified number of shares of common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares at a future date. The consideration
21


per share of common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares may be fixed at the time that the stock purchase contracts are issued or may be determined by reference to a specific formula set forth in the stock purchase contracts. Any stock purchase contract may include anti-dilution provisions to adjust the number of shares issuable pursuant to such stock purchase contract upon the occurrence of certain events.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any stock purchase contracts in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered, including, to the extent applicable, the following:

whether the stock purchase contracts obligate the holder or us to purchase or sell, or both purchase and sell, the securities subject to purchase under the stock purchase contract, and the nature and amount of each of those securities, or the method of determining those amounts;
whether the stock purchase contracts are to be prepaid or not;
whether the stock purchase contracts will be issued as part of a unit and, if so, the other securities comprising the unit;
whether the stock purchase contracts are to be settled by delivery, or by reference or linkage to the value, performance, or level of the securities subject to purchase under the stock purchase contract;
any acceleration, cancellation, termination, or other provisions relating to the settlement of the stock purchase contracts; and
whether the stock purchase contracts will be issued in full registered or global form.

Stock Purchase Units

The stock purchase contracts may be issued separately or as a part of units (“stock purchase units”), consisting of a stock purchase contract and debt securities or debt obligations of third parties, including U.S. Treasury securities, in each case securing holders’ obligations to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares under the stock purchase contracts. The stock purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to holders of the stock purchase units, or vice versa, and such payments may be unsecured or prefunded. The stock purchase contracts may require holders to secure their obligations thereunder in a specified manner.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

The following summary of certain provisions of units does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the unit agreement that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the offering of any units.

The following description, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes the material terms and provisions of units we may offer under this prospectus. Units may be offered independently or together with common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, and warrants offered by any prospectus supplement, and may be attached to or separate from those securities. While the terms we have summarized below will generally apply to any future units we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of units we may offer in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any units offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below.

We will incorporate by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part the form of unit agreement, including a form of unit certificate, if any, that describes the terms of the series of units we are offering before the issuance of the related series of units. The following summaries of material provisions of the units and the unit agreements are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the unit agreement applicable to a particular series of units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the units we may sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete unit agreements that contain the terms of the units.

General

We may issue units consisting of one or more shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock, depositary shares, and warrants in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time, or at any time before a specified date.

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units, including the following:
22



the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;
any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described below; and
any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer, or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

The provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Common Stock,” “Description of Preferred Stock,” “Description of Depositary Shares,” and “Description of Warrants,” will apply to each unit and to any common stock, preferred stock, depositary share, or warrant included in each unit, respectively.

Issuance in Series

We may issue units in such amounts and in such numerous distinct series as we determine.

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Units

Each unit agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable unit agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any unit. A single bank or trust company may act as unit agent for more than one series of units. A unit agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable unit agreement or unit, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a unit may, without the consent of the related unit agent or the holder of any other unit, enforce by appropriate legal action its rights as holder under any security included in the unit.

Title

We, the unit agent, and any of their agents may treat the registered holder of any unit certificate as an absolute owner of the units evidenced by that certificate for any purposes and as the person entitled to exercise the rights attaching to the units so requested, despite any notice to the contrary.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION GENERAL

We may sell the securities offered by this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions, including without limitation:

directly to purchasers;
to or through underwriters or dealers;
through agents;
through a combination of any of these methods.

A distribution of the securities offered by this prospectus may also be effected through the issuance of derivative securities, including without limitation, warrants, subscriptions, exchangeable securities, forward delivery contracts and the writing of options.

In addition, the manner in which we may sell some or all of the securities covered by this prospectus includes, without limitation, through:

a block trade in which a broker-dealer will attempt to sell as agent, but may position or resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction ;
purchases by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers;
privately negotiated transactions.

We may also enter into hedging transactions. For example, we may:

enter into transactions with a broker-dealer or affiliate thereof in connection with which such broker-dealer or affiliate will engage in short sales of the common stock pursuant to this prospectus, in which case such broker-dealer or affiliate may use shares of common stock received from us to close out its short positions;
sell securities short and redeliver such shares to close out our short positions;
23


enter into option or other types of transactions that require us to deliver common stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who will then resell or transfer the common stock under this prospectus;
loan or pledge the common stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus.

In addition, we may enter into derivative or hedging transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with such a transaction, the third parties may sell securities covered by and pursuant to this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be. If so, the third party may use securities borrowed from us or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from us to close out any related short positions. We may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be.

A prospectus supplement with respect to each offering of securities will state the terms of that particular offering of securities, including:

the name or names of any underwriters or agents and the amounts of securities underwritten or purchased by each of them, if any;
the public offering price or purchase price of the securities and the net proceeds to be received by us from the sale;
any over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us;
any delayed delivery arrangements;
any underwriting discounts or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters’ or agents’ compensation;
any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers;
any securities exchange on which the securities may be listed.

The offer and sale of the securities described in this prospectus by us, the underwriters or the third parties described above may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, including privately negotiated transactions, either:

at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;
at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;
at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or
at negotiated prices.

Any public offering price and any discounts, commissions, concessions or other items constituting compensation allowed or reallowed or paid to underwriters, dealers, agents or remarketing firms may be changed from time to time. Underwriters, dealers, agents and remarketing firms that participate in the distribution of the offered securities may be “underwriters” as defined in the Securities Act. Any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profits they receive on the resale of the offered securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We will identify any underwriters, agents or dealers and describe their commissions, fees or discounts in the applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be.

Underwriters and Agents

If underwriters are used in a sale, they will acquire the offered securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the offered securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. These sales may be made at a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of the sale, at prices related to such prevailing market price or at negotiated prices. We may offer the securities to the public through an underwriting syndicate or through a single underwriter. The underwriters in any particular offering will be mentioned in the applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be.

Unless otherwise specified in connection with any particular offering of securities, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the offered securities will be subject to certain conditions contained in an underwriting agreement that we will enter into with the underwriters at the time of the sale to them. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities of the series offered if any of the securities are purchased, unless otherwise specified in connection with any particular offering of securities. Any initial offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed, reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

24


We may designate agents to sell the offered securities. Unless otherwise specified in connection with any particular offering of securities, the agents will agree to use their best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of their appointment. We may also sell the offered securities to one or more remarketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. These firms will remarket the offered securities upon purchasing them pursuant to the terms of the offered securities. A prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be, will identify any remarketing firm and will describe the terms of its agreement, if any, with us and its compensation.

In connection with offerings made through underwriters or agents, we may enter into agreements with such underwriters or agents pursuant to which we receive our outstanding securities in consideration for the securities being offered to the public for cash. In connection with these arrangements, the underwriters or agents may also sell securities covered by this prospectus to hedge their positions in these outstanding securities, including in short sale transactions. If so, the underwriters or agents may use the securities received from us under these arrangements to close out any related open borrowings of securities.

Dealers

We may sell the offered securities to dealers as principals. We may negotiate and pay dealers’ commissions, discounts or concessions for their services. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public either at varying prices to be determined by the dealer or at a fixed offering price agreed to with us at the time of resale. Dealers engaged by us may allow other dealers to participate in resales.

Direct Sales

We may choose to sell the offered securities directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved.

Institutional Purchasers

We may authorize agents, dealers or underwriters to solicit certain institutional investors to purchase offered securities on a delayed delivery basis pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified future date. The applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be, will provide the details of any such arrangement, including the offering price and commissions payable on the solicitations.

We will enter into such delayed contracts only with institutional purchasers we approve. These institutions may include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies and educational and charitable institutions.

Indemnification; Other Relationships

We may have agreements with agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms, and their affiliates, may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business. This includes commercial banking and investment banking transactions.

Market-Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions

There is currently no market for any of the offered securities, other than the common stock which is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. If the offered securities are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and other factors. While it is possible that an underwriter could inform us that it intends to make a market in the offered securities, such underwriter would not be obligated to do so, and any such market-making could be discontinued at any time without notice. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to whether an active trading market will develop for the offered securities. We have no current plans for listing of the debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants, subscription rights, purchase contracts or purchase units on any securities exchange; any such listing with respect to any particular debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants, subscription rights, purchase contracts or purchase units will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be.

In connection with any offering of common stock, the underwriters may purchase and sell shares of common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve syndicate sales of common stock in excess of the number of shares to be purchased by the underwriters in the offering,
25


which creates a syndicate short position. “Covered” short sales are sales of shares made in an amount up to the number of shares represented by the underwriters’ over-allotment option. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered syndicate short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. Transactions to close out the covered syndicate short involve either purchases of the common stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed or the exercise of the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also make “naked” short sales of shares in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares of common stock in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids for or purchases of shares in the open market while the offering is in progress for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities.

In connection with any offering, the underwriters may also engage in penalty bids. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time.

Distribution by Selling Security Holders

Selling security holders may distribute securities from time to time in one or more transactions (which may involve block transactions) on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or otherwise. Selling security holders may sell securities at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices. The selling security holders may from time to time offer their securities through underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts, commissions or concessions from the selling security holders and/or the purchasers of the securities for whom they act as agent. From time to time, the selling security holders may engage in short sales, short sales against the box, puts and calls and other transactions in our securities, or derivatives thereof, and may sell and deliver securities in connection therewith.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have engaged no underwriter, broker, dealer or agent in connection with any distribution of securities pursuant to this prospectus by any selling security holders. To the extent required, the amount of securities to be sold, the purchase price, the name of any applicable agent, broker, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The aggregate net proceeds to the selling security holders from the sale of securities will be the sale price of those securities, less any commissions, if any, and other expenses of issuance and distribution not borne by us.

The selling security holders and any brokers, dealers, agents or underwriters that participate with the selling security holders in a distribution of securities may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, in which event any discounts, concessions and commissions received by such brokers, dealers, agents or underwriters and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the extent to which we will have agreed to bear fees and expenses of the selling security holders in connection with the registration of the securities offered hereby by them. We may, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, agree to indemnify selling security holders against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
