 payment of a distribution to a U.S. Holder. Any such deemed distribution would be taxable as a dividend, return of capital or capital gain as described above under “— Distributions.” U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the proper treatment of any adjustments to the exercise price and shares or other consideration issuable on conversion of the pre-funded warrants and accompanying warrants.

It is unclear whether a constructive dividend deemed paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder would be eligible for the lower applicable long-term capital gains rates as described above under “— Distributions.” It is also unclear whether corporate U.S. Holders would be entitled to claim the dividends received deduction with respect to any such deemed dividends. Generally, a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a pre-funded warrant or accompanying warrant will be increased to the extent any such deemed distribution is treated as a dividend. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect a deemed distribution may have on their holding period in the pre-funded warrants or accompanying warrants.

We are currently required to report the amount of any deemed distributions on our website or to the IRS and to holders not exempt from reporting. The IRS has proposed regulations addressing the amount and timing of deemed distributions, as well as obligations of withholding agents and filing and notice obligations of issuers in respect of such deemed distributions. If adopted as proposed, the regulations would generally provide that (i) the amount of a deemed distribution is the excess of the fair market value of the right to acquire stock immediately after the exercise price adjustment over the fair market value of the right to acquire stock (after the exercise price adjustment) without the adjustment, (ii) the deemed distribution occurs at the earlier of the date the adjustment occurs under the terms of the instrument and the date of the distribution of cash or property that results in the deemed distribution, (iii) subject to certain limited exceptions, a withholding agent is required to impose any applicable withholding on deemed distributions and, if there is no associated cash payment, may withhold the required amounts from, or set off the required amounts against, payments on the pre-funded warrants or accompanying warrants, payments on our common stock or sales proceeds received by or other funds or assets of an investor, and (iv) we are required to report the amount of any deemed distributions on our website or to the IRS and to all holders (including holders that would otherwise be exempt from reporting). The final regulations will be effective for deemed distributions occurring on or after the date of adoption, but holders and withholding agents may rely
