EXPLANATORY NOTE

On August 24, 2022, Akili, Inc. filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-267031) (as amended on September 12, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the “Registration Statement”) which registered for resale up to 43,414,721 shares of our common stock held by the selling securityholders named therein. On March 21, 2023, we filed Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-1 on Form S-3 (“Post-Effective Amendment No. 2”) is being filed by the registrant (i) to convert the Registration Statement on Form S-1 into a Registration Statement on Form S-3 and (ii) to update certain information regarding the Selling Securityholders named in the prospectus, including a reduction in the number of shares of common stock being offered by the Selling Securityholders to 42,924,035 shares of common stock to reflect sales or other dispositions of such securities by the Selling Securityholders since the filing of the initial Registration Statement.

No additional securities are being registered under this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2. All applicable registration fees were paid at the time of the original filing of the Registration Statement.

 


Table of Contents

The information in this preliminary prospectus is not complete and may be changed. These securities may not be sold until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This preliminary prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and it is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.

 

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED SEPTEMBER 5, 2023

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

42,924,035 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

OF

AKILI, INC.

 

 

This prospectus relates to (i) the resale of 16,100,110 shares of common stock issued in the PIPE Investment (as defined below) by certain of the selling securityholders, acquired at a purchase price of $10.00 per share; (ii) the resale of 6,061,910 shares of common stock issued upon consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below), in exchange for Class B ordinary shares of SCS (as defined below) originally issued to the Sponsor (as defined below) at a purchase price of $0.004 per share; (iii) the resale of 640,000 shares of common stock issued upon consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below), in exchange for Class A ordinary shares of SCS (as defined below) originally issued to the Sponsor (as defined below) at a purchase price of $10.00 per share; (iv) the resale of 2,494,549 shares of common stock held by certain of our current and former directors, acquired at a weighted average purchase price of $1.53 per share; (v) the resale of 15,684,066 shares of common stock issued to certain former equity holders of Akili (as defined below) pursuant to the Business Combination, acquired at a weighted average purchase price of $3.20 per share; (vi) the issuance by us and resale of 1,876,687 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options to purchase common stock held by persons who previously ended their relationship with Akili prior to or concurrently with the Closing to the Business Combination, which have a weighted average exercise price of $3.02 per share; (vii) the resale of 16,713 shares of common stock issued for exercised stock options; and (viii) the resale of 50,000 shares of common stock previously issued upon the settlement of restricted stock units. We collectively refer to the selling securityholders covered by this prospectus as the “Selling Securityholders”.

On August 19, 2022, we consummated the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 26, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Social Capital Suvretta Holdings Corp. I, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SCS”), Karibu Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SCS (“Merger Sub”), and Akili Interactive Labs, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Akili”). As contemplated by the Merger Agreement, SCS was domesticated as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to “Akili, Inc.” (the “Domestication”). Following the Domestication, Merger Sub merged with and into Akili, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and Akili survived as a wholly owned subsidiary of Akili, Inc. (the “Merger” and, together with the Domestication, the “Business Combination”).

We are registering the resale of shares of common stock as required by (i) the amended and restated registration rights agreement, dated as of August 19, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), entered into by and among Akili, Inc., SCS Sponsor I LLC, certain affiliates of SCS Sponsor I LLC, certain directors and advisors of SCS and certain former stockholders of Akili, and (ii) the subscription agreements, entered into by and among SCS and certain qualified institutional buyers and accredited investors relating to the purchase of shares of common stock in private placements consummated in connection with the Business Combination.

We will receive the proceeds from any exercise of outstanding stock options, but not from the resale of any of the securities registered hereby by the Selling Securityholders. The amount of aggregate proceeds from exercise of outstanding stock options to which this registration statement relates could be up to approximately $5,665,727. The exercise prices of such outstanding stock options range from $0.01 to $5.95 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.02 per share. There is no assurance that stock options will be in the money prior to their expiration or that the holders of such securities will elect to exercise any or all of such securities for cash. We believe the likelihood that these holders will exercise such securities, and therefore any cash proceeds that we may receive in relation to the exercise of such securities will be dependent on the trading price of our common


Table of Contents

stock. If the market price for our common stock is less than the exercise price of stock options, we believe the holders of such stock options will be unlikely to exercise such securities. See “Use of Proceeds.”

We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the securities. The Selling Securityholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their respective sales of the securities.

Prior to the extraordinary general meeting of SCS in connection with the Business Combination held on August 18, 2022, holders of 24,772,478 SCS class A ordinary shares exercised their right to redeem those shares for cash at a price of $10.03 per share for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $248.5 million, representing approximately 99.09% of SCS’s Class A ordinary shares. The shares of common stock being offered for resale in this prospectus, excluding those issuable upon the exercise of stock options, represent approximately 54.9% of our total outstanding shares of common stock as of August 30, 2023. Additionally, if all the stock options are exercised, the holders of such stock options would own an additional 1,876,687 shares of common stock, representing approximately 2.3% of our total shares of common stock outstanding following such exercise as of August 31, 2023. The sale of all the securities being offered in this prospectus could result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our shares of common stock. Despite such a decline in the public trading price, the Selling Securityholders may still experience a positive rate of return on the securities they purchased due to the difference in the purchase prices of which they purchased the securities described above. See “Risk Factors.

Trading of our common stock began on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on August 22, 2022, under the ticker symbol “AKLI”. On August 31, 2023, the closing sale price of our common stock as reported by Nasdaq was $0.98 per share.

 

 

Investing in our securities involves risks that are described in the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page 12 of this prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued under this prospectus or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

 

The date of this prospectus is         , 2023.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

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

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference herein. Because it is a summary, it may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. To understand this offering fully, you should read this entire prospectus, the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and the documents incorporated by reference herein carefully, including the information set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” and our financial statements. See also the sections titled “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.”

Company Overview

We are a leading digital medicine company, pioneering the development of cognitive treatments through game-changing technologies. Our approach of developing and commercializing technologies designed to directly target the physiology of the brain has established a new category of medicine—medicine that is validated through clinical trials like a drug or medical device, but experienced like entertainment. In June 2020, EndeavorRx, the first product built on our platform, was granted marketing authorization and classified as a Class II medical device by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) through FDA’s de novo process. EndeavorRx is indicated for use to improve attention function for children ages 8-12 with primarily inattentive or combined-type ADHD, who have a demonstrated attention issue. In June 2023, we released EndeavorOTC, which is built on the same platform as EndeavorRx, nationwide without a prescription to improve attention function, ADHD symptoms and quality of life in adults 18 years of age and older with primarily inattentive or combined-type ADHD, under the FDA guidance entitled “Enforcement Policy for Digital Health Devices for Treating Psychiatric Disorders During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Public Health Emergency” (the “COVID-19 Guidance”). The COVID-19 Guidance allows for the marketing of certain digital therapeutics without premarket clearance, de novo classification, or approval so long as certain criteria are met for the duration of the COVID-19 Guidance. The COVID-19 Guidance is expected to remain in effect until November 7, 2023. Additional FDA guidance allows for the continued distribution of devices falling under the COVID-19 Guidance without marketing authorization so long as the manufacturer has submitted a marketing submission to FDA, the submission has been accepted by FDA prior to November 7, 2023 and FDA has not taken a final action on the marketing submission. EndeavorOTC has not been cleared or authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any indications. Our efforts are primarily focused on obtaining regulatory clearance and commercializing EndeavorOTC in adults with ADHD, commercializing EndeavorRx in children ages 8-12 with ADHD and obtaining an expanded label for EndeavorRx in adolescents ages 13-17 with ADHD. Further development of our pipeline outside of the ADHD space will be contingent upon capital raising and supportive business development activities.

Risk Factors

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this prospectus summary, which illuminate challenges that we face in connection with the successful implementation of our strategy and the growth of our business. The following considerations, among others, may offset our competitive strengths or have a negative effect on our business strategy, which could cause a decline in the price of shares of our securities and result in a loss of all or a portion of your investment:

Risks relating to our business and industry, including that:

 

   

We have a history of significant losses, anticipate that expenses may increase in the future, and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

 

   

The failure of our digital therapeutics to achieve and maintain market acceptance and adoption by patients and physicians could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents
   

There is no assurance that we will obtain or maintain adequate coverage and reimbursement for EndeavorRx, EndeavorOTC, if granted marketing authorization, or for any of our future digital therapeutic product candidates, if granted marketing authorization, or that healthcare insurers will agree to reimburse purchases of our products in the future. Lack of reimbursement or any delay, reduction or elimination of these payments could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

 

   

The market for digital therapeutics is new, rapidly evolving, and increasingly competitive, the healthcare industry in the U.S. is undergoing significant structural change, and the demand for digital therapeutics in the U.S. and in markets outside of the U.S. is uncertain, which makes it difficult to forecast demand for our products. As a result, all prospective financial information included herein are subject to change.

 

   

The market opportunities and revenue potential of EndeavorRx and EndeavorOTC and any potential expanded market for EndeavorRx and EndeavorOTC across additional age ranges in ADHD have not been established with precision. We have estimated the sizes and revenue potential of the market opportunities for EndeavorRx, our FDA-cleared product, and for EndeavorOTC, and these market opportunities may be smaller than we estimate.

 

   

Our development programs represent novel and innovative potential therapeutic areas, and negative perception of any product or product candidate that we develop could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business, obtain marketing authorizations or identify alternate regulatory pathways to market for such product candidate.

 

   

Clinical trials conducted by us or by third parties of any of our products or product candidates may fail to produce results necessary to support marketing authorization.

 

   

We face competition, and new products may emerge that provide different or better alternatives for treatment of the conditions that EndeavorRx, EndeavorOTC, if granted marketing authorization, or our future products, if granted marketing authorization, are authorized to treat.

 

   

If we fail to maintain clearance, de novo classification or approval to market our products and product candidates, including AKL-T01 for expanded indications, or if we are delayed in obtaining such marketing authorizations, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

 

   

EndeavorOTC is currently available via the Apple App Store® and EndeavorRx is currently available via the Apple App Store and on Google PlayTM, and each of our products is supported by third-party infrastructure. If our ability to access these markets or access necessary third-party infrastructure was stopped or otherwise restricted or limited, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

 

   

If we are not able to develop and release new products, or successful enhancements, new features, and modifications to EndeavorOTC, EndeavorRx or any future products, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

 

   

We currently rely on a single third-party digital pharmacy for the fulfillment of prescriptions for EndeavorRx. This reliance on a single third party increases the risk that we could have a disruption in the fulfillment of prescriptions for EndeavorRx, which could have a material and adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

   

If we are unable to adequately protect and enforce our intellectual property and proprietary technology, obtain and maintain patent protection for our technology and products where appropriate or if the scope of the patent protection obtained is not sufficiently broad, or if we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets and know-how, our competitors could develop and commercialize

 

8


Table of Contents
 

technology and products similar or identical to our products, and our ability to successfully commercialize our technology and products may be impaired.

 

   

If we fail to comply with obligations in the agreements under which we collaborate with or license intellectual property rights from third parties, or otherwise experience disruptions to our business relationships with collaborators or licensors, we could lose rights that are important to our business.

 

   

We will need substantial additional funding, and if we are unable to raise capital when needed or on terms favorable to us, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

   

The amount of our future losses is uncertain and our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate significantly or fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, each of which may cause our stock price to fluctuate or decline.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As such, we may take advantage of reduced disclosure and other requirements otherwise generally applicable to public companies, including:

 

   

exemption from the requirement to have our registered independent public accounting firm attest to management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;

 

   

exemption from compliance with the requirement of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, regarding the communication of critical audit matters in the auditor’s report on the financial statements;

 

   

reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and

 

   

exemption from the requirement to hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have at least $1.235 billion in annual revenue; (2) the date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700.0 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates; (3) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period; and (4) the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of SCS’s initial public offering. As a result of this status, we have taken advantage of reduced reporting requirements in this prospectus and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in our future filings with the SEC. In particular, in this prospectus, we have not included all of the executive compensation-related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company.

On August 19, 2022, we domesticated into a Delaware corporation and changed our name to “Akili, Inc.” in connection with the Domestication.

THE OFFERING

The following summary of the offering contains basic information about the offering and our common stock and is not intended to be complete. It does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a more complete understanding of our common stock, please refer to the section titled “Description of Our Securities.”

Issuance of common stock

 

Shares of common stock to be issued by us

1,876,687 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of stock options to purchase common stock.

 

Shares of common stock outstanding prior to the exercise of stock options

78,174,532 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2023.

 

Use of proceeds

We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $5,665,727 from the exercise of stock options to which this registration statement relates (assuming the exercise in full of all of the outstanding stock options for cash). The exercise prices of the outstanding stock options range from $0.01 to $5.95 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.02 per share. There is no assurance that stock options will be in the money prior to their expiration or that the holders of such stock options will elect to exercise any or all of such stock options. We believe the likelihood that these holders will exercise such stock options, and therefore any cash proceeds that we may receive in relation to the exercise of such stock options being offered for sale in this prospectus, will be dependent on the trading price of our common stock. If the market price for our common stock is less than the exercise price of stock options, we believe the holders of such stock options will be unlikely to exercise such securities. We expect to use any net proceeds from the exercise of stock options for general corporate purposes. See “Use of Proceeds”.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of outstanding stock options, if any, for general corporate purposes. We will have broad discretion over the use of any proceeds from the exercise of outstanding stock options. There is no assurance that the holders of the outstanding stock options will be in the money prior to their expiration or that the holders of such stock options will elect to exercise for cash any or all of such stock options. We believe the likelihood that these stock option holders will exercise such stock options, and therefore any cash proceeds that we may receive in relation to the exercise of such stock options being offered for sale in this prospectus, will be dependent on the trading price of our common stock. If the market price for our common stock is less than the exercise price of stock options, we believe the holders of such stock options will be unlikely to exercise such stock options.

The Selling Securityholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by them for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred in disposing of the securities.

Material Relationships with Selling Securityholders

Below is a description of material relationships in the past three years between the Company, its predecessors or affiliates and certain Selling Securityholders.

Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares

In March 2021, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 SCS Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share (the “founder shares”). In June 2021, the Sponsor transferred 30,000 founder shares to Vladimir Coric (an independent director). On June 29, 2021, SCS effected a share capitalization resulting in Sponsor and Mr. Coric holding an aggregate of 6,325,000 founder shares (up to 825,000 of which were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option in the initial public offering was exercised), resulting in an effective purchase price per founder share of approximately $0.004. These founder shares are identical to the SCS Class A ordinary shares included in the units sold in SCS’ initial public offering, except that (i) prior to the initial business combination (as defined in the Cayman Constitutional Documents), only the holders of the founder shares have the right to vote on the election of directors and holders of a majority of the founder shares may remove a member of the board of directors for any reason, (ii) the founder shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, (iii) the holders of the founder shares have agreed pursuant to a letter agreement to waive (x) their redemption rights with respect to the founder shares, private placement shares and public shares held by them in connection with the completion of a business combination, (y) their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, private placement shares and public shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Cayman Constitutional Documents (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by July 2, 2023 or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (z) their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to the founder shares and private placement shares if SCS fails to complete a business combination by July 2, 2023, (iv) the founder shares are automatically convertible into SCS Class A ordinary shares at the time of the initial business combination and (v) the founder shares are entitled to registration rights.

Table of Contents

On July 2, 2021, SCS consummated its initial public offering of its Class A ordinary shares, which included a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option. As a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option, a total of 750,000 founder shares are no longer subject to forfeiture and 75,000 founder shares were forfeited, resulting in an aggregate of 6,250,000 founder shares held by Sponsor and one of our independent directors.

In connection with the Business Combination, upon the Domestication, 6,250,000 private placement shares converted automatically, into shares of Akili, Inc. common stock on a one-for-one basis.

Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, SCS consummated the private sale of 640,000 private placement shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per private placement share, to the Sponsor generating gross proceeds to us of $6.4 million. The private placement shares are identical to the Class A ordinary shares sold in SCS’ initial public offering except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees: (1) they will not have rights to funds held in the trust account; (2) they may not, subject to certain limited exceptions and as modified by the Lock-Up Agreement, be transferred, assigned or sold by the Sponsor until 30 days after the completion of SCS’ initial business combination; and (3) they are entitled to registration rights.

In connection with the Business Combination, upon the Domestication, 640,000 founder shares converted automatically, into shares of Akili, Inc. common stock on a one-for-one basis.

Registration Rights

The holders of the founder shares and private placement shares (and any SCS Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the founder shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed June 29, 2021 requiring SCS to register such securities for resale (in the case of the founder shares, only after conversion to SCS Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that SCS register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of SCS’ initial business combination and rights to require SCS to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. SCS will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

In connection with the Business Combination, the registration rights agreement was amended and restated.

Subscription Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, SCS entered into Subscription Agreements with the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors, pursuant to which the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors have subscribed for shares of Akili, Inc. common stock in connection with the PIPE Investment.

If at the time of any offering made under this prospectus a member of FINRA participating in the offering has a “conflict of interest” as defined in FINRA Rule 5121 (“Rule 5121”), that offering will be conducted in accordance with the relevant provisions of Rule 5121.

Table of Contents

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the Selling Securityholders and any broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the securities by the Selling Securityholders. Upon our notification by a Selling Securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with an underwriter or broker-dealer for the sale of securities through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution, secondary distribution or a purchase by an underwriter or broker-dealer, we will file, if required by applicable law or regulation, a supplement to this prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act disclosing certain material information relating to such underwriter or broker-dealer and such offering.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

The Selling Securityholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the securities will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities by, the Selling Securityholders or any other person, which limitations may affect the marketability of the shares of the securities.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the securities to be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus, which we expect to be approximately $35,000.

SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE OF OUR SECURITIES

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted Akili, Inc. common stock or Akili, Inc. warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been an affiliate of Akili, Inc. at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) Akili, Inc. is subject to periodic reporting requirements under the Exchange Act for at least three months before the sale and has filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as Akili, Inc. was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of Akili, Inc. common stock or Akili, Inc. warrants for at least six months but who are affiliates of Akili, Inc. at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

 

   

1% of the total number of shares of Akili, Inc. common stock then outstanding; or

 

   

the average weekly reported trading volume of Akili, Inc. common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by affiliates of Akili, Inc. under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about Akili, Inc.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

 

   

the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

 

   

the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

 

   

the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K; and

 

   

at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

Following the Business Combination, Akili, Inc. is no longer a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of any of the above noted restricted securities.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR SECURITIES

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

Authorized Capitalization

General

The total amount of authorized capital stock of Akili, Inc. consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. We have approximately 78,174,532 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock outstanding as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, there were 43 holders of record of our common stock.

Preferred Stock

The board of directors of Akili, Inc. (the “Board”) has authority to issue shares of our preferred stock in one or more series, to fix for each such series such voting powers, designations, preferences, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences for the issue of such series all to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing the trading price of our common stock, restricting dividends on our capital stock, diluting the voting power of our common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our capital stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of Akili, Inc.

Common Stock

Akili, Inc. common stock is not entitled to preemptive or other similar subscription rights to purchase any of Akili, Inc. securities. Akili, Inc. common stock is neither convertible nor redeemable.

Warrants

As of June 30, 2023, warrants to purchase up to 133,578 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding.

Voting Rights

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders, as provided by the Certificate of Incorporation. The Bylaws provide that the holders of a majority of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is required to take action, unless otherwise specified by law, the Bylaws or the Certificate of Incorporation, and except for the election of directors, which is determined by a plurality vote. There are no cumulative voting rights.

Dividend Rights

Our common stock holders are entitled to the payment of dividends and other distributions as may be declared by the Board from time to time out of the assets of Akili, Inc. or funds legally available for dividends or other distributions. These rights are subject to the preferential rights of the holders of Akili, Inc. preferred stock, if any, and any contractual limitations on the ability of Akili, Inc. to declare and pay dividends.

 

29


Table of Contents

Other Rights

Each holder of our common stock is subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.

Liquidation Rights

If we are involved in voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of Akili, Inc., or a similar event, each holder of our common stock will participate pro rata in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of our preferred stock, if any, then outstanding.

Anti-takeover Effects of the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws

The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws contain provisions that may delay, defer or discourage another party from acquiring control of Akili, Inc. We expect that these provisions, which are summarized below, will discourage coercive takeover practices or inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of Akili, Inc. to first negotiate with the Board, which we believe may result in an improvement of the terms of any such acquisition in favor of Akili, Inc. stockholders. However, they also give the Board the power to discourage mergers that some stockholders may favor.

Classified Board

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board is divided into three classes (Class I, Class II and Class III), one class of which will be elected each year by our stockholders. The first term of office of the Class I directors expires at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the Certificate of Incorporation, the first term of office of the Class II directors expires at the second annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the Certificate of Incorporation and the first term of office of the Class III directors expires at the third annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the Certificate of Incorporation. Accordingly, a third party may be discouraged from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us because it is more difficult and time-consuming for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors on a classified board.

Director Removal and Filling Vacancies

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors may be removed only for cause and then only by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the holders of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors. Furthermore, any vacancy on the Board, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the Board, may only be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of our directors then in office even if less than a quorum. The limitations on removal of directors and treatment of vacancies, has the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to change the composition of our board of directors.

Special Meetings of Stockholders

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the (a) the Chair of the Board, (b) the Board acting pursuant to a resolution approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office or (c) the Chief Executive Officer of Akili, Inc., provided that such special meeting may be postponed, rescheduled or cancelled by the Board. The Bylaws limit the business that may be conducted at an annual or special meeting of stockholders to those matters properly brought before the meeting.

Action by Written Consent

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders must be effected at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and may not be taken by written consent in

 

30


Table of Contents

lieu of a meeting. This limit may lengthen the amount of time required to take stockholder actions and would prevent the amendment of our bylaws or removal of directors by our stockholders without holding a meeting of stockholders.

Advance Notice Requirements

The Bylaws establish advance notice procedures with regard to stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors or new business to be brought before meetings of our stockholders. These procedures provide that notice of stockholder proposals must be timely given in writing to the corporate secretary of Akili, Inc. prior to the meeting at which the action is to be taken. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary date of the annual meeting for the preceding year. The Bylaws specify the requirements as to form and content of all stockholders’ notices. These requirements may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before the stockholders at an annual or special meeting.

Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Any amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation must first be approved by a majority of the Board, and if required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, must thereafter be approved by a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the amendment and a majority of the outstanding shares of each class entitled to vote thereon as a class, except that the amendment of the provisions relating to stockholder action, board composition, limitation of liability and amendment of the certificate of incorporation must be approved by not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the amendment, and not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares of each class entitled to vote thereon as a class. The Bylaws may be amended or repealed by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, subject to any limitations set forth in the Bylaws; and generally may also be amended by the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the amendment.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

Section 203 of the DGCL provides that if a person acquires 15% or more of the voting stock of a Delaware corporation, such person becomes an “interested stockholder” and may not engage in certain “business combinations” with such corporation for a period of three years from the time such person acquired 15% or more of such corporation’s voting stock, unless: (i) the board of directors of such corporation approves the acquisition of stock or the merger transaction before the time that the person becomes an interested stockholder, (ii) the interested stockholder owns at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of such corporation at the time the merger transaction commences (excluding voting stock owned by directors who are also officers and certain employee stock plans), or (iii) the merger transaction is approved by the board of directors and at a meeting of stockholders, not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder. A Delaware corporation may elect in its certificate of incorporation not to be governed by this particular Delaware law. The Certificate of Incorporation does not opt Akili, Inc. out of Section 203 and, therefore, Section 203 applies to Akili, Inc.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that we will indemnify our directors to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law. We have or expect to enter into agreements to indemnify its directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by the Board. Under the Bylaws, we are required to indemnify each of our directors and officers if the basis of the indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was a director or officer of Akili, Inc. or was serving at the request of Akili, Inc. as a director, officer, employee or agent for another entity. We must indemnify our officers and directors against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by

 

31


Table of Contents

the indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Akili, Inc., and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The Bylaws also require us to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person will repay any such advance if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification by Akili, Inc. Any claims for indemnification by our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against Akili, Inc. and may reduce the amount of money available to Akili, Inc.

Exclusive Jurisdiction of Certain Actions

The Bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have, or declines to accept, jurisdiction, another state court located within the State of Delaware) will be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Akili, Inc., (b) any action asserting a claim for or based on a breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee of Akili, Inc. to Akili, Inc. or Akili, Inc.’s stockholders including a claim alleging the aiding and abetting of such a breach of fiduciary duty, (c) any action asserting a claim against Akili, Inc. or any current or former director, officer or other employee of Akili, Inc. arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (as may be amended from time to time) (including the interpretation, validity or enforceability thereof), (d) any action asserting a claim related to or involving Akili, Inc. that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine, or (e) any action asserting an “internal corporate claim” as that term is defined in Section 115 of the DGCL (the “Delaware Forum Provision”). The Delaware Forum Provision, however, does not apply to any causes of action arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or to any claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. The Bylaws also provide that, unless Akili, Inc. consents in writing to the selection of an alternate forum, the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, and the rules and regulation promulgated thereunder, will be the federal district courts of the U.S. (the “Federal Forum Provision”). Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. The Delaware Forum Provision and the Federal Forum Provision will not relieve Akili, Inc. of its duties to comply with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, and Akili, Inc. stockholders will not be deemed to have waived Akili, Inc.’s compliance with these laws, rules and regulations.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for Akili, Inc. common stock is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

Item 15.

Indemnification of directors and officers.

Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful.

Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 145 further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and the indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Section 145 also empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any

 

II-1


Table of Contents

liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under Section 145.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Additionally, our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, and our Bylaws provide that we will indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by such law. We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by our board of directors. Under the terms of such indemnification agreements, we are required to indemnify each of our directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the state of Delaware, if the basis of the indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was our director or officer or was serving at our request in an official capacity for another entity. We must indemnify our officers and directors against all reasonable fees, expenses, charges and other costs of any type or nature whatsoever, including any and all expenses and obligations paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness or participate in any completed, actual, pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, or establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification under the indemnification agreement. The indemnification agreements also require us, if so requested, to advance all fees, expenses and other costs that such director or officer incurred, provided that such person will return any such advance if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification by us. Any claims for indemnification by our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.

Item 17.

Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4) that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(a) each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(b) each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering being made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an

underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5) that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(a) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(b) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(c) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of an undersigned registrant; and

(d) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
