**The information in this preliminary prospectus is not complete and may be changed.

**SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS DATED JUNE 18, 2026**![LOGO](g87527g03g03.jpg)

## SENTI BIOSCIENCES HOLDINGS, INC.
**15,971,890 Shares of Common Stock Offered by the Selling Securityholder** 

This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling securityholder (the "Selling Securityholder") or its permitted transferees, of up to 15,971,890 shares (the "Resale Shares") of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, or Common Stock, of Senti Biosciences Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") issuable upon the exchange of the Senior Secured Convertible Notes of Senti Holdings, Inc., our subsidiary (the "Notes"). Unless the context otherwise requires, for purposes of this prospectus, the terms "we," "us," "our," etc. refer to the Company.

The Resale Shares, and the Notes from which such Resale Shares are exchangeable, were collectively issued and sold to an accredited investor in a private placement transaction. The Notes were issued on May 20, 2026. We are registering the offer and sale of the Resale Shares held by the Selling Securityholder to satisfy the registration rights granted pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (as defined below) and Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). While we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Resale Shares by the Selling Securityholder pursuant to this prospectus, we have received approximately $9.7 million in net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes.

This prospectus provides you with a general description of such securities and the general manner in which the Selling Securityholder or its pledgees, assignees or successors-in-interest may offer or sell the securities. More specific terms of any securities that the Selling Securityholder may offer or 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. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus.

Our registration of the Resale Shares covered by this prospectus does not mean that either we or the Selling Securityholder will issue, offer or sell, as applicable, any of the Resale Shares. The Selling Securityholder may offer and sell the Resale Shares covered by this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. We provide more information about how the Selling Securityholder may sell the Resale Shares in the section entitled "Plan of Distribution." The Selling Securityholder may be deemed to be an "underwriter", within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), of the Resale Shares that it is offering pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Securityholder will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to its sales of the Resale Shares hereunder. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the Resale Shares. We will not be paying any underwriting discounts or commissions in this offering.

The Resale Shares represent a substantial percentage of our total outstanding Common Stock as of April 30, 2026. The Resale Shares being offered for resale in this prospectus represent 51.2% of our current total outstanding Common Stock. Such shares of Common Stock will represent a substantial portion of our public float. If the Notes are exchanged for Common Stock, such shares of Common Stock will be significantly dilutive and may cause a decline in the market price of our securities.

You should read this prospectus and any prospectus supplement or amendment carefully before you invest in our securities.

Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol "SNTI". On June 17, 2026, the last quoted sale price for the Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq was $0.9508 per share.

**We are an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company" under applicable federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements for so long as we remain an emerging growth company or a smaller reporting company.** 

**Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before buying any securities, you should carefully read the discussion of the risks of investing in our securities in "[Risk Factors](#tx87527_6)" beginning on page 11 of this prospectus and any other risk factors contained in any applicable prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein.** 

**Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission 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 , 2026.**

For a more complete understanding of us, you should read and consider carefully the more detailed information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement or amendment, including the factors described under the heading "Risk Factors," beginning on page 11 of this prospectus, as well as the information incorporated herein by reference, before making an investment decision.

**Overview** 

We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing next-generation cell and gene therapies engineered with our gene circuit platform technologies for patients living with incurable diseases. Our mission is to create a new generation of smarter medicines that outsmart complex diseases using novel and unprecedented approaches. To accomplish this mission, we have built a synthetic biology platform that we believe may enable us to program next-generation cell and gene therapies with gene circuits. These gene circuits, which we created from novel and proprietary combinations of DNA sequences, are designed to reprogram cells with biological logic to sense inputs, compute decisions and respond to their respective cellular environments. Using gene circuits, our product candidates are designed to precisely kill cancer cells, spare healthy cells, increase specificity to target cells and control the expression of drugs even after administration.

We are applying our gene circuit technologies to develop a pipeline of medicines that use chimeric antigen receptor ("CAR") white blood cells with the goal of addressing major challenges and providing potentially lifesaving treatments for people living with cancer. Our lead product candidate utilizes off-the-shelf healthy adult donor derived natural killer ("NK") cells to create CAR-NK cells outfitted with gene circuit technologies in several oncology indications with high unmet need.

**May 2026 Private Placement** 

On April 27, 2026, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with the Selling Securityholder, pursuant to which our subsidiary, Senti Holdings, Inc., agreed to issue and sell up to $40.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Senior Secured Convertible Notes in up to two tranches. On May 20, 2026, we issued and sold to the Selling Securityholder the first tranche of Notes, in aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million. None of the securities issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement were initially registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, rather, we offered the securities in reliance on exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part relates to the offer and resale of the Resale Shares issuable upon the exchange of the first tranche of Notes.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the first tranche of Notes, on May 20, 2026, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the Selling Securityholder pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of the Common Stock underlying the Notes sold to the Selling Securityholder under the Purchase Agreement.

The Notes are exchangeable for shares of our Common Stock at an initial exchange price of $0.6261 per share and are also convertible for shares of common stock of Senti Holdings, Inc., our direct, wholly owned subsidiary, at an initial conversion price of $0.6261 per share, in each case subject to customary adjustments upon the

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
occurrence of events specified in the Notes. In accordance with the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we are not obligated to issue any shares of our Common Stock upon exchange beyond 19.99% of our Common Stock outstanding as of the date of the Purchase Agreement (the "Exchange Cap") prior to the approval of our stockholders at a meeting to be held not later than August 31, 2026 to approve our issuance of shares of our Common Stock underlying the Notes without giving effect to the Exchange Cap (the "Issuance Approval"). In connection with the issuance of the first tranche of Notes on May 20, 2026, and assuming the Issuance Approval and the immediate exchange of such Notes by the Selling Securityholder for our Common Stock, the Selling Securityholder would, based on its Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on May 4, 2026, beneficially own 54.6% of our outstanding Common Stock.

The Notes will not bear any interest unless an event of default has occurred. The Notes will have a maturity date of November 23, 2026, which is the date that is the first business day immediately following the date that is six months after the closing date of the first tranche of Notes (the "Maturity Date"). The Maturity Date may be extended at the option of the Selling Securityholder (i) if there is an event of default occurring on the Maturity Date or any event that, with the passage of time and the failure to cure would result in an event of default and (ii) through the date that is ten business days after the consummation of a change of control that is publicly announced or of which the Selling Securityholder received notice pursuant to the Notes. On the Maturity Date, if the Notes have not previously been converted or exchanged, Senti Holdings, Inc. is required to pay the Selling Securityholder an amount in cash equal to 200% of all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest.

**Going Concern** 

We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations and have an accumulated deficit that raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Similarly, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 with respect to this uncertainty.

**Company Information** 

Senti Biosciences, Inc. ("Senti Biosciences"), our predecessor company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 9, 2016. On April 24, 2026, Senti Biosciences consummated a holding company reorganization by executing a tax-free merger, whereby it merged with and into Senti Biosciences Merger Sub, Inc., a newly formed Delaware corporation that is a subsidiary of a newly formed Delaware corporation, Senti Holdings, Inc. Senti Holdings, Inc. is our subsidiary. Following the reorganization, we became the successor issuer to Senti Biosciences. Our principal executive offices are located at 2 Corporate Drive, First Floor, South San Francisco, California 94080, and our telephone number is (650) 239-2030. Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "SNTI".

We file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet website at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information about issuers, like us, that file electronically with the SEC. We also maintain a website at https://sentibio.com. We make available, free of charge, on our investor relations website at https://investors.sentibio.com, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to these reports as soon as reasonably practicable after electronically filing or furnishing those reports to the SEC. Information contained on our website is not a part of or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the inclusion of our website and investor relations website addresses in this prospectus is an inactive textual reference only.

**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:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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 and our net sales for the year exceed $100 million; (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) December 31, 2026, the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of our becoming a public company.

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 and our other SEC filings incorporated by reference herein, we have not included all of the executive compensation-related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company.

**Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company** 

We are a "smaller reporting company" as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates was less than $250 million on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates was less than $700 million on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. For so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we are permitted and plan to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure and other requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies.

| **Risk Factors**  | Any investment in the securities offered hereby is speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**RISK FACTORS** 

*Investing in the Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors incorporated by reference to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, and the risk factors and other information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement before making an investment decision. The risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially adversely affected. This could cause the trading price of our securities to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also carefully read the section titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."* 

**Risks Related to this Offering by the Selling Securityholder** 

***The sale of the securities registered for resale hereunder and future sales of substantial amounts of our securities in the public market (including the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of the Notes), or the perception that such sales may occur, may cause the market price of our securities to decline significantly.***

We are registering for resale 15,971,890 shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock offered for resale by the Selling Securityholder in this prospectus represent approximately 51.3% of our total Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026. The Selling Securityholder is currently our largest stockholder and, upon exchange of the Notes for shares of Common Stock, the Selling Securityholder will become our controlling stockholder. However, the shares of Common Stock offered for resale by the Selling Securityholder in this prospectus are not subject to volume limitations pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

We cannot predict if and when the Selling Securityholder may sell such shares in the public markets. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional shares of Common Stock or other equity or debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

Pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not issue greater than 6,225,836 shares of Common Stock upon exchange of the Notes until we obtain stockholder approval in accordance with the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market. We have agreed to call a meeting of our stockholders as promptly as practicable, but in any event not later than August 31, 2026, to seek such stockholder approval. At that meeting, the Selling Securityholder, which is our largest stockholder, will be able to vote its pre-transaction shares, and has agreed to vote such shares, in favor of such approval. Therefore, all 15,971,890 shares of our Common Stock may become issuable in exchange for the Notes in the future, notwithstanding the limitations provided by the Notes and the rules the Nasdaq Capital Market that currently apply to the Notes.

The resale of these 15,971,890 shares of Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that the Selling Securityholder intends to sell such shares, could reduce the market price of our Common Stock.

**USE OF PROCEEDS** 

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Resale Shares covered by this prospectus.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**DILUTION** 

As of March 31, 2026, the net tangible book value of our Common Stock was approximately $(10.0) million, or $(0.32) per share of Common Stock based on 31,144,754 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding. Net tangible book value per share as of a particular date represents our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of outstanding Common Stock.

After giving effect to the issuance of 15,971,890 shares of our Common Stock upon exchange of the Notes at an assumed price of $0.63 per share, the pro forma net tangible book value as of March 31, 2026 would have been approximately $(0.6) million or $(0.01) per share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.31 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $0.64 per share to the investors purchasing shares of our Common Stock in this offering at the assumed price per share.

The following table illustrates the dilution in net tangible book value per share as a result of this offering:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  Assumed price per share |  | $0.63 |
|  Net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2026 | $(0.32) |  |
|  Increase in net tangible book value per share after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of the Notes | $0.31 |  |
|  Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2026 |  | $0.01 |
|  Dilution per share to new investors in this offering |  | $0.64 |

---

For purposes of calculating pro forma, as adjusted net tangible book value, the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding prior to and after this offering is based on 31,144,754 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026, assumes the issuance of 15,971,890 shares of our Common Stock in connection with this offering, and excludes, in each case, as of such date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 4,848,839 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options outstanding at a weighted-average
exercise price of $12.45 per share;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 31,745,500 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock
outstanding at a weighted-average exercise price of $2.30 per share;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 714,571 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the vesting and settlement of outstanding restricted stock units
under our equity incentive plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 2,131,608 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under our 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2022
Plan"), plus any future increases in the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under our 2022 Plan pursuant to the evergreen provision of our 2022 Plan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 436,474 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under our 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"ESPP"), plus any future increases in the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under our ESPP pursuant to the evergreen provision of our ESPP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 2,132,767 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under our 2022 Inducement Plan.

To the extent that any of the outstanding options are exercised, warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock are exercised or restricted stock units vest, there would be further dilution to investors participating in this offering.

**SELLING SECURITYHOLDER** 

This prospectus relates to the reoffer and resale of up to 15,971,890 Resale Shares by the Selling Securityholder from time to time upon the exchange of the Notes. We are registering the Resale Shares in order to permit the Selling Securityholder to offer the Resale Shares for resale from time to time. For additional information regarding the Resale Shares being offered by the Selling Securityholder pursuant to this prospectus, see "Prospectus Summary—May 2026 Private Placement" above. As a closing condition to the issuance of the first tranche of Notes under the Purchase Agreement, we entered into the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of the Common Stock underlying the Notes sold to the Selling Securityholder.

When we refer to the *"Selling Securityholder"* in this prospectus, we mean the person listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors and others who later come to hold any of the Selling Securityholder's interest in the Resale Shares after the date of this prospectus such that registration rights shall apply to those securities.

The following table is prepared based on information provided to us by the Selling Securityholder. It sets forth the name and address of the Selling Securityholder, the aggregate number of Resale Shares beneficially owned as of the date of this prospectus, and the aggregate number of Resale Shares that the Selling Securityholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus, and the number of Resale Shares beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholder after the sale of the securities offered hereby. We have based percentage ownership after this offering on 31,144,754 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026. Unless otherwise described below, to our knowledge, the Selling Securityholder has not held any position or office or had any other material relationship with us or our affiliates during the three years prior to the date of this prospectus. In addition, except as otherwise described below, based on the information provided to us by the Selling Securityholder, the Selling Securityholder is not a broker-dealer or affiliate of a broker-dealer.

We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Securityholder will in fact sell any or all of such Resale Shares. In addition, the Selling Securityholder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the Resale Shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus. For purposes of this table, we have assumed that the Selling Securityholder will have sold all of the securities covered by this prospectus upon the completion of the offering. Any changed or new information given to us by the Selling Securityholder, including regarding the identity of, and the securities held by, each Selling Securityholder, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, if and when necessary.

Please see the section entitled "*Plan of Distribution*" for further information regarding the Selling Securityholder's method of distributing these securities.

---

(1) Common Stock being offered is issuable to CPIF II-7 Limited, an entity
affiliated with Celadon Partners SPV 24 ("Celadon") upon exchange of the Notes. Under the so-called "rule of three," if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity's
securities are made by two or more individuals, and a voting and dispositive decision requires the approval of a majority of those individuals, then none of the individuals is deemed a beneficial owner of the entity's securities. This is
the situation with regard to Celadon. Based upon the foregoing analysis, no individual shareholder of Celadon exercises voting or dispositive control over any of the securities held by Celadon, even those in which he directly holds an economic
interest.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Accordingly, none of them are deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of such shares. Mr. Donald Tang, a member of our board of directors, is a manager of Celadon Partners, LLC, which is the sole manager of Celadon, but does not have voting or investment power over the shares held by Celadon. The business address of Celadon is PO Box 500, Suite 210, 2nd Floor, Windward III, Regatta Office Park, Grand Cayman, KY1-1106, Cayman Islands.

**Relationship with Selling Securityholder** 

Pursuant to a letter agreement executed with Celadon in December 2024, Celadon had the right to designate certain directors to our Board, subject to the terms and conditions provided in its letter agreement. On December 9, 2024, Donald Tang was appointed as a director of our predecessor's Board of Directors pursuant to the letter agreement with Celadon. On March 7, 2025, Feng Hsiung was appointed as a director of our predecessor's Board of Directors and on July 18, 2025, Bryan Baum was appointed as a director of our predecessor's Board of Directors pursuant to a request by Celadon under terms of the same letter agreement. In connection with our reorganization, we, Celadon and our predecessor entered into an amended and restated letter agreement adding us as a party to the letter agreement, and the same three directors were appointed to our Board. As of the date of this prospectus, Celadon held three of the eight seats on the Board.

We have entered into certain agreements, which have been amended from time to time, with GeneFab, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or GeneFab, and Valere Bio, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the parent company of GeneFab, or Valere, which is wholly owned by a company managed by Celadon, for the transfer of certain assets, provision of services (for which we may be reimbursed) and sublease of our premises in California as well as license of our intellectual property rights to conduct manufacturing services. These agreements with GeneFab include a letter agreement whereby GeneFab has the option to purchase certain shares of our common stock, subject to the terms specified therein. This letter agreement relating to the option was assigned to Valere Holdings LLC, an affiliate of GeneFab, and it was terminated in April 2026. In addition, we entered into a economic share agreement in August 2023, pursuant to which we were entitled to receive 10% of the realized gains of GeneFab's parent company, and this agreement was terminated in April 2026. Donald Tang, who is currently a member of our Board, is a manager of Celadon Partners, LLC, which is the sole manager of Celadon.

In December 2024, we sold certain warrants and shares of convertible preferred stock to Celadon, and the shares of Common Stock underlying such securities were registered for resale pursuant to a registration rights agreement.

Other than these relationships with Celadon, the Selling Securityholder has not had a material relationship with us or any of our predecessors within the past three years, other than as a result of the ownership of shares of Common Stock, the Notes or other securities.

**DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES** 

*The following description summarizes certain important terms of our capital stock as of the date of this prospectus as specified in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the "Charter") and our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws"). Because the following description is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description of the matters set forth in this section titled "Description of Securities," you should refer to the Charter, the Bylaws, the Investor Rights and Lock-up Agreement dated June 8, 2022, by and among us (as successor to Senti Biosciences, Inc.) and the parties listed therein as Investors (the "Investor Rights and Lock-Up Agreement"), and the Registration Rights Agreement dated December 2, 2024 between us (as successor to Senti Biosciences, Inc.) and the parties listed therein (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), which are included as exhibits to Senti Biosciences, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and to the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL").* 

**Authorized and Outstanding Stock** 

The Charter authorizes the issuance of 510,000,000 shares, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. As of March 31, 2026, there were 31,144,754 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

**Common Stock** 

The Charter provides the following with respect to the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of our common stock.

***Voting Power***

Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock possess all voting power for the election of the directors and all other matters requiring stockholder action. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by stockholders.

***Dividends***

Holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor. We have not historically paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial conditions. In no event will any stock dividends or stock splits or combinations of stock be declared or made on our common stock unless our common stock at the time outstanding are treated equally and identically.

***Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up***

In the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, our net assets will be distributed pro rata to the holders of our common stock, subject to the rights of the holders of the preferred stock, if any.

***Preemptive or Other Rights***

There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
***Transfer Rights***

Subject to applicable law and the transfer restrictions set forth in Article IV of the Bylaws, shares of our common stock and the rights and obligations associated therewith are fully transferable to any transferee.

**Preferred Stock** 

***Undesignated Preferred Stock***

The Charter provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix designations, powers, including voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of the shares of each series of preferred stock and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. Our board of directors is also able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of our common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of Senti or the removal of existing management.

**Registration Rights** 

***2022 Registration Rights Agreement***

We (as successor to Senti Biosciences, Inc.) and certain of our stockholders are party to the Investor Rights and Lock-up Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, such stockholders were granted certain registration rights with respect to certain shares of securities held by them.

The holders of the Founder Shares (as defined in the Investor Rights and Lock-up Agreement), the holders of the Private Placement Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and the Anchor Investors (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the registration and stockholder rights agreement requiring us to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of an initial business combination and rights to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering our securities. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Under the Investor Rights and Lock-up Agreement, the Anchor Investors will be entitled to registration rights in respect of these shares. In addition, the PIPE Investors (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the subscription agreements they entered into with us in connection with the PIPE Investment (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement).

These registration rights are only applicable so long as we do not already have a resale registration statement in effective for these shares. As of the date of this prospectus, we currently have in effect a resale registration statement for the shares included in the Investor Rights and Lock-up Agreement.

***Registration Rights Agreement (PIPE Transaction)***

We (as successor to Senti Biosciences, Inc.) and the investors, who participated in the private placement transaction in December 2024 (the "PIPE Transaction"), are party to a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the closing of the PIPE Transaction, but, in any event, not later than one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter (the "PIPE Filing Date"), a resale registration statement on Form S-3 (or Form S-1 if Form S-3 is not available) providing for the resale by the Selling Securityholders of (i) the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Preferred Stock and (ii) the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants , wherein (i) and (ii) collectively are referred to as the Registrable Shares, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such resale registration statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable but in any event no later than the earlier of (a) the seventy-fifth (75th) calendar day following the PIPE Filing Date of the registration statement if the SEC notifies us that it will "review" the registration statement and (b) the fifth (5th) business day after the date we are notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the registration statement will not be "reviewed" or will not be subject to further review. We also agreed to take all steps necessary to keep such registration statement effective at all times until all Registrable Shares have been resold, or there remains no Registrable Shares. We have agreed to pay a liquidated damages penalty upon certain failures to meet the deadlines set forth above or to keep the resale registration statement continuously effective, which penalties will not exceed 5% of the aggregate subscription amount.

***Registration Rights Agreement (Notes Offering)***

We and the Selling Securityholder who participated in the issuance of the Notes entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable following any issuance of the Notes, but, in any event, not later than thirty days thereafter (the "Filing Deadline"), a resale registration statement on Form S-3 (or another appropriate form if Form S-3 is not available) providing for the resale by the Selling Securityholder of the shares of common stock issuable upon exchange of the Notes, and to use reasonable best efforts to cause any such resale registration statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable but in any event no later than the earlier of (a) the seventy-fifth calendar day following the earlier of the filing date and the Filing Deadline of such registration statement if the SEC notifies us that it will "review" the registration statement and (b) the fifth business day after the date we are notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such registration statement will not be "reviewed" or will not be subject to further review. We further agreed to use reasonable best efforts to keep any such registration statement effective at all times until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Selling Securityholder shall have resold all the Registrable Securities covered thereby pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to such registration statement, (ii) the date on which the Registrable Securities may be resold by the Selling Securityholder without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, and (iii) the date on which the Notes are redeemed, repaid or otherwise repurchased.

**Anti-Takeover Provisions** 

***Charter and Bylaws***

Among other things, the Charter and Bylaws (as amended from time to time):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• permit our board of directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with any rights, preferences
and privileges as they may designate, including the right to approve an acquisition or other change of control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that our number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our board of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that, subject to the rights of any series of preferred stock to elect directors, directors may be removed
only with cause by the holders of at least 75% of all of our then-outstanding shares of the capital stock entitled to vote generally at an election of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that all vacancies, subject to the rights of any series of preferred stock, including newly created
directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that stockholders seeking to present proposals before a meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates
for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders must provide advance notice in writing, and also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder's notice;

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called by our board of directors pursuant to a
resolution adopted by a majority of the board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that our board of directors will be divided into three classes of directors, with the directors serving
three year terms, therefore making it more difficult for stockholders to change the composition of our board of directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not provide for cumulative voting rights, therefore allowing the holders of a majority of our common stock
entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose.

To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, our Charter and Bylaws, provide that our board of directors and Officers (as defined in the DGCL) shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty except for liability (a) for any breach of the director or officer's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (b) for the director or officer's acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit, (d) in the case of directors, under Section 174 of the DGCL or (e) in the case of officers, arising from any claim brought by or in the right of the Company.

Our 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 our corporate secretary 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. Our 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.

The combination of these provisions make it more difficult for the existing stockholders to replace our board of directors as well as for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our board of directors. Because our board of directors will have the power to retain and discharge its officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated preferred stock will make it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change our control.

These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our board of directors and its policies and to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to reduce our vulnerability to hostile takeovers and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and may have the effect of delaying changes in our control or management. As a consequence, these provisions may also inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our stock.

***Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law***

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a "business combination" with:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, otherwise known as an "interested
stockholder";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an
interested stockholder.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
A "business combination" includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of a corporation's assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 would not apply if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the relevant board of directors approves the transaction that made the stockholder an "interested
stockholder," prior to the date of the transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that
stockholder owned at least 85% of the corporation's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the initial business combination is approved by the board of
directors and authorized at a meeting of the corporation's stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by
the interested stockholder.

These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing changes in control.

***Choice of Forum***

Pursuant to our Bylaws, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for the following types of actions or proceedings under Delaware statutory or common law: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers or employees to us or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our Charter or our Bylaws (including their interpretation, validity or enforceability); or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This exclusive forum provision will not apply to any causes of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 the "Exchange Act"), or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Stockholders cannot waive compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other federal securities laws or the rules and regulations thereunder. Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternate forum, the United States federal district courts shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. In addition, our Bylaws provide that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock is deemed to have notice of and consented to these exclusive forum provisions.

The forum selection provisions in our Bylaws may limit our stockholders' ability to litigate disputes with us in a judicial forum that they find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees, which may discourage the filing of lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and employees, even though an action, if successful, might benefit our stockholders. In addition, these forum selection provisions may impose additional litigation costs for stockholders who determine to pursue any such lawsuits against us.

**Transfer Agent** 

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is the transfer agent for our common stock.

**Trading Symbol and Market** 

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "SNTI".

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION** 

The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes the Selling Securityholder and donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from the Selling Securityholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• distributions to members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders of the selling stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• privately negotiated transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• short sales and settlement of short sales;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange
or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated
price per share;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a combination of any such methods of sale; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act, amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling stockholders for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker- dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, <u>provided</u> that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule, or another available exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act (it being understood that the selling stockholders shall not be deemed to be underwriters solely as a result of their participation in this offering). Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to use reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part to become effective and to remain continuously effective until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the selling stockholders shall have resold or otherwise disposed of all the shares covered by this prospectus pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to this prospectus and (ii) the date on which the shares covered by this prospectus no longer constitute "Registrable Securities" as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, such that they may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations and without current public information pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect and (iii) the date on which the Notes are redeemed, repaid or otherwise repurchased.

**LEGAL MATTERS** 

Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian, LLP has passed upon the validity of the Resale Shares offered by this prospectus and certain other legal matters related to this prospectus.

**EXPERTS** 

The consolidated financial statements of Senti Biosciences, Inc. as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, have been incorporated by reference herein and in the registration statement in reliance upon the report of KPMG LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference herein, and upon authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

**Item 15.** **Indemnification of Directors and Officers** <br>

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that all of our directors, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to be indemnified by us to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL. Section 145 of the DGCL concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A corporation shall have power 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, 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. The termination of any action,
suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which 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 reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A corporation shall have power 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 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) actually and reasonably incurred
by the person in

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
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 and 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits
or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be
made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not
parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if
such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such
amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by former officers and directors or other
employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of
this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the certificate of incorporation or a bylaw shall
not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or
advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) A corporation shall have power 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
liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under
this section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) For purposes of this section, references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the
resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For purposes of this section, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit
plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted
in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation" as referred to in this section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section 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 the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for
advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any by law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation's obligation to
advance expenses (including attorneys' fees).

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

In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director or officer shall be personally liable to us or any of our stockholders for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors or officers, except to the extent such limitation on or exemption from liability is not permitted under the DGCL. The effect of this provision of our Certificate of Incorporation is to eliminate our rights and those of our stockholders (through stockholders' derivative suits on our behalf) to recover monetary damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer, including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior, except, as restricted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL. However, this provision does not limit or eliminate our rights or the rights of any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief, such as an injunction or rescission, in the event of a breach of a director's or officer's duty of care.

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the liability of directors, then, in accordance with our Certificate of Incorporation, the liability of our directors to us or our stockholders will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
amendment of provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation limiting or eliminating the liability of directors, whether by our stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits us to further limit or eliminate the liability of directors on a retroactive basis.

Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that we will, to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, indemnify our current and former officers and directors, as well as those persons who, while directors or officers of our corporation, are or were serving as directors, officers, employees or agents of another entity, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney's fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by any such person in connection with any such proceeding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person eligible for indemnification pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation will be indemnified by us in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person only if such proceeding was authorized by our Board, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification.

The right to indemnification which is conferred by our Certificate of Incorporation is a contract right that includes the right to be paid by us the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding referenced above in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by our officer or director (solely in the capacity as an officer or director of our corporation) will be made only upon delivery to us of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such officer or director, to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under our Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise.

The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which any person covered by our Certificate of Incorporation may have or hereafter acquire under law, our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation affecting indemnification rights, whether by our stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits us to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision. Our Certificate of Incorporation will also permit us, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other that those specifically covered by our Certificate of Incorporation.

Our Bylaws include the provisions relating to advancement of expenses and indemnification rights consistent with those which are set forth in our Certificate of Incorporation. In addition, our Bylaws provide for a right of indemnity to bring a suit in the event a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses is not paid in full by us within a specified period of time. Our Bylaws also permit us to purchase and maintain insurance, at our expense, to protect us and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of our corporation or another entity, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of our Bylaws affecting indemnification rights, whether by our Board, stockholders or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
permits us to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing thereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to our Registration Statement on Form S-4 that was declared effective by the SEC on May 13, 2022. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

These limitations of liability do not alter director liability under the federal securities laws and do not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as an injunction or rescission.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, we agreed to continue to indemnify DYNS' directors and officers and have agreed to the continuation of director and officer liability insurance covering such directors and officers.

\* Filed herewith.

^ Certain exhibits and schedules to this Exhibit have been omitted in accordance with Regulation S-K Item 601(b)(2). We agree to furnish supplementally a copy of all omitted exhibits and schedules to the Securities and Exchange Commission upon its request.

**Item 17.** **Undertakings** <br>

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(a) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
Registration Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
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) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however, that: paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of this Registration Statement or, as to a registration statement on Form S-3, is contained in a form of prospectus that is part of the registration statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) 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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a
registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be
deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the
prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the
registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or
prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time
of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such
effective date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be
filed pursuant to Rule 424;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) 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 the undersigned registrant; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

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

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on this Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of South San Francisco, CA on June 18, 2026.

Senti Biosciences Holdings, Inc.

2 Corporate Drive, First Floor

South San Francisco, CA 94080

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to Senti Biosciences Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the filing by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") on June 18, 2026 of the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to the reoffer and resale from time to time by the selling securityholder named in the prospectus (the "Prospectus") forming a part of the Registration Statement under the heading "Selling Securityholder" (the "Selling Securityholder") of up to 15,971,890 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Shares") issuable upon the exchange of the Senior Secured Convertible Notes of Senti Holdings, Inc., our subsidiary (the "Notes"). All of the Shares are being registered on behalf of the Selling Securityholder. The Shares are to be offered and sold by the Selling Securityholder or its permitted transferee in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the Registration Statement and the originals or copies certified to our satisfaction of such other documents, records, certificates, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and of the Selling Securityholder as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We have assumed the accuracy and completeness of each document submitted to us, the genuineness and authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof and the due execution and delivery of all documents where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof.

This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the resale of the Shares. Our opinion is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is

**June 18, 2026** 

implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. Our opinion herein is expressed solely with respect to the Federal laws of the United States of America and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). Our opinion is based on these laws as in effect on the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may alter, affect or modify the opinion expressed herein. We are not rendering any opinion as to compliance with any federal or state antifraud law, rule or regulation relating to securities, or to the sale or issuance thereof.

With respect to the Shares, we express no opinion to the extent that, notwithstanding the Company's current reservation of shares of Common Stock, future issuances of securities of the Company, including the Shares, and/or antidilution adjustments to outstanding securities of the Company, including the Notes, may cause the Notes to be exercisable for more shares of Common Stock than the number that then remain authorized but unissued.
