ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
 
This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are part of a registration statement that we filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-225457) utilizing a “shelf” registration process. This document is in two parts. The first part is the prospectus supplement, which describes the specific terms of the securities being offered by us and the selling stockholder, and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference therein. The second part, the accompanying prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, provides more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering of securities. Generally, when we refer to this prospectus, we are referring to both parts of this document combined. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus supplement, on the one hand, and the information contained in the accompanying prospectus or in any document incorporated by reference that was filed with the SEC before the date of this prospectus supplement, on the other hand, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement. If any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date — for example, a document incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus — the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.
 
As used in this prospectus, the terms “DRH,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
 
You should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference therein and any free writing prospectus we provide you. We and the selling stockholder have not, and the underwriter has not, authorized anyone to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We and the selling stockholder are not, and the underwriter is not, making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus we or the selling stockholder provide you is accurate only as of the date on those respective documents. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. You should read this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus, when making your investment decision. You should also read and consider the information in the documents we have referred you to in the sections of this prospectus supplement entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.” The distribution of this prospectus supplement and the offering of the common stock in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons outside the United States (“U.S.”) who come into possession of this prospectus supplement must inform themselves about, and observe any restrictions relating to, the offering of the common stock and the distribution of this prospectus supplement outside the U.S. This prospectus supplement does not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities offered by this prospectus supplement by any person in any jurisdiction in which it is unlawful for such person to make such an offer or solicitation.
 
You should not consider any information in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus to be investment, legal or tax advice. You should consult your own counsel, accountants and other advisers for legal, tax, business, financial and related advice regarding the purchase of shares of our common stock.

This unaudited preliminary financial information for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2018 is based upon our estimates and subject to completion of our financial closing procedures. Moreover, this data has been prepared solely on the basis of currently available information by, and are the responsibility of, management. This preliminary financial information is not a comprehensive statement of our financial results for this period, and our actual results may differ materially from these estimates due to the completion of our financial closing procedures, final adjustments, and other developments that may arise between now and the time the closing procedures for the quarter are completed. There can be no assurance that these estimates will be realized, and estimates are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are not within our control.
 
Restaurant-Level EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of non-restaurant specific general and administrative expenses, restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses related to acquisitions, equity offerings or other non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. We are presenting Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), because we believe they provide an additional metric by which to evaluate our operations. When considered together with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to our net income, we believe they provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We use Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, income from operations, net income, and cash flows from operations, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance the understanding of our core operating performance. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because: (i) we believe they are useful measures for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses; (ii) we believe investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness; and (iii) they are used internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors.
 
Additionally, we present Restaurant-Level EBITDA because it excludes the impact of general and administrative expenses and restaurant pre-opening costs, which is non-recurring. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA thereby enables us and our investors to compare our operating performance between periods and to compare our operating performance to the performance of our competitors. The measure is also widely used within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant level productivity, efficiency, and performance. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structure and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management team believes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of the foregoing variations.
 
Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating, investing, or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Neither Restaurant-Level EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and our presentation of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Our management recognizes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical financial measures.

RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in our common stock involves risk. Before you invest in our co mmon stock you should carefully con sider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in thi s prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and carefully read the risks described in the documen ts incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including those se t forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31 , 2017 . Any of these risks could cause our actual results to vary materially from recent results or from anti cipated future results or could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of o perations. This effect could be compoun ded if multiple risks were to occur. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment. Please also refer to the section below entitled “ Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” regarding forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus . Although we believe that these risks are the most important for y ou to consider, you should read this section, including any risk factors incorporated by reference in thi s prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, in conjunction with our financial statements, the note s to those financial statements and our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and resul ts of operation included in our periodic reports and incorporated by reference herein.
 
Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock
 
We have broad discretion to determine how to use the funds raised in this offering, and may not use them effectively .
 
Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering, and we could spend the proceeds from this offering in ways our stockholders may not agree with or that do not yield a favorable return, if at all. Accordingly, you will have to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of those proceeds. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business.
 
A substantial number of shares of common stock may be sold in the market following this offering, which may depress the market price for our common stock.
 
Our common stock is traded on The NASDAQ Capital Market and could be considered “thinly-traded,” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market following this offering could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. A substantial majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock are, and the shares of common stock sold in this offering upon issuance will be, freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In addition, the lack of a robust resale market may require a stockholder who desires to sell a large number of shares of common stock to sell the shares in increments over time to mitigate any adverse impact of the sales on the market price of our stock.
 
Purchasers will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering .
 
Since the price per share of our common stock being offered is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you will suffer substantial dilution with respect to the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. Based on the public offering price of $               per share, and our net tangible book value as of April 1, 2018, if you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $               per share, or $           per share if the underwriter exercises its overallotment option in full, with respect to the net tangible book value of the common stock. See “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase common stock in this offering.
 
Our stockholders may experience further dilution if we issue additional equity securities in the future.
 
Any additional future issuances of common stock by us will reduce the percentage of our common stock owned by investors purchasing shares in this offering who do not participate in such future issuances. In most circumstances shareholders will not be entitled to vote on whether or not we issue additional common stock. In addition, depending on the terms and pricing of an additional offering of our common stock and the value of our assets, our shareholders may experience dilution in both the book value and fair value of their shares.
 
S-4

 
There may be future sales or other dilution of our equity which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
Except as described under the caption “Underwriting,” we are not restricted from issuing additional common stock, including securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock. We are offering shares           of common stock, and up to an additional           shares of common stock if the underwriter exercises its over-allotment option in full. The issuance of additional shares of our common stock in this offering or other issuances of our common stock or convertible or other equity-linked securities, including options and warrants, or otherwise, in connection with capital-raising transactions, will dilute the ownership interest of our common shareholders. As of July 18, 2018, we had 27,264,381 outstanding shares of common stock, which excludes the following: (i) 180,000 shares of common stock subject to outstanding options and (ii) 1,855,223 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our Stock Incentive Plan of 2017. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or other equity-related securities in the public market could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock.
 
We are not currently paying dividends and will likely continue not paying dividends for the foreseeable future.
 
We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our revenues and earnings, capital requirements, general financial condition and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.
 
Our officers and directors own a pproximately 50.0 % of our common stock and investors may not have any voice in our management, which could result in decisions adverse to our general stockholders.
 
As of July 18, 2018, our officers and directors, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately or have the right to vote approximately 50.0% of our outstanding common shares (excluding exercisable vested options). As a result, these stockholders, acting together, have the ability to influence all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval including:
 
 	●	election of our board of directors;	
 
 	●	removal of any members of our board of directors;	
 
 	●	amendments to our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; and	
 
 	●	adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving us.	
 
The interests of our officers may differ from the interests of the other stockholders, and they may influence decisions with which the other stockholders may not agree. Such decisions may be detrimental to our business plan and/or operations and they may cause our business to fail in which case you may lose your entire investment.
 
S-5

 
There is volatility in our stock price.
 
The market for our stock has, from time to time, experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Factors such as announcements of variations in our quarterly financial results and fluctuations in same-store sales could cause the market price of our stock to fluctuate significantly. In addition, the stock market in general, and the market prices for restaurant companies in particular, have experienced volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our stock, regardless of our operating performance.
 
The market price of our stock can be influenced by stockholders’ expectations about the ability of our business to grow and to achieve certain profitability targets. If our financial performance in a particular quarter does not meet the expectations of our stockholders, it may adversely affect their views concerning our growth potential and future financial performance.
 
If securities or industry analysts issue an adverse opinion regarding our stock, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
 
The trading market for our common stock is influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. We currently have limited research coverage by securities and industry analysts. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the trading price of our common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the trading price of our common stock or trading volume to decline.

USE OF PROCEEDS
 
We estimate that our net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $          million, or approximately $           million if the underwriter exercises in full its option to purchase additional shares of common stock, in each case, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, including the costs of the selling stockholder.
 
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of debt. However, our use of these proceeds may differ substantially from our current plans. Our existing credit facilities will mature on June 29, 2020. The interest rate for each of our loans is based upon either a LIBOR or base rate (generally Prime or Fed Funds) plus an applicable margin, which ranges from 2.25% to 3.5% for LIBOR loans and from 1.25% to 2.5% for base rate loans. To the extent that the net proceeds from this offering exceed $5.0 million, we may be required to use certain of such net proceeds to pay down outstanding borrowings under our existing credit facilities.
 
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholder. We will, however, bear the costs, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, associated with the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholder.

DIVIDEND POLICY
 
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and presently anticipate that all earnings, if any, will be retained for development of our business and debt reduction, and that no dividends on our shares of common stock will be declared in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, our operating and financial condition, our capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent facts. There can be no assurance that any dividends on our common stock will ever be paid.

DILUTION
 
If you invest in our common stock in this offering, your ownership interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.
 
Our net tangible book value as of April 1, 2018 was approximately $(74,606,900), or $(2.75) per share of our common stock. Our net tangible book value per share represents total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of April 1, 2018. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after giving effect to this offering.
 
After giving effect to the issuance and sale by us of            shares of common stock in this offering at a public offering price of $          per share, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of April 1, 2018 would have been approximately $          , or approximately $          per share of our common stock. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $           per share to existing stockholders and immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $           per share to new investors purchasing our common stock in this offering at the public offering price.
 
The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis:
 
Public offering price per share	 	 	 	 	$	 	 	
Net tangible book value per share as of April 1, 2018	 	$	(2.75	)	 	 	 	
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering	   	$	 	   	 	 	 	
As adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering	 	 	 	 	$	 	 	
Dilution per share to new investors participating in this offering	 	 	 	 	$	 	 	
 
If the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional shares of common stock from us in full in this offering, the as adjusted net tangible book value after the offering would be $           per share, the increase in net tangible book value per share to existing stockholders would be $           per share and the dilution per share to new investors would be $           per share, in each case based on the public offering price.
 
The above discussion and table are based on 27,136,514 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 1, 2018, which does not include:
 
●	180,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options to purchase shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $2.50 per share; and	
●	 1,993,153 shares reserved for future grants under our Stock Incentive Plan of 2017.	
 
To the extent any outstanding options set forth above are exercised or any restricted stock awards vest, investors participating in this offering will experience further dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock, as of July 18, 2018, by the selling stockholder.  The information in the table below (but not the percentage) is based upon information provided to us by the selling stockholder.  The selling stockholder may sell all, some or none of their shares registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

UNDERWRITING
 
We and the selling stockholder are offering the shares of common stock described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus through the underwriter listed below. Dougherty & Company LLC is acting as the sole bookrunning manager of this offering. The underwriter named below has agreed to buy from us and the selling stockholder, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement, the number of shares of common stock listed opposite its names below. The underwriter is committed to purchase and pay for all of the shares if any are purchased, other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option described below.
 
Underwriter	 	Number of Shares	 	
Dougherty & Company LLC	 	 	 	
Total	 	 	 	
 
The underwriter has advised us and the selling stockholder that it proposes to offer the shares of common stock to the public at a price of $        per share. The underwriter proposes to offer the shares of common stock to certain dealers at the same price less a concession of not more than $          per share. After the offering, these figures may be changed by the underwriter.
 
The shares sold in this offering are expected to be ready for delivery on or about           , 2018, against payment in immediately available funds. The underwriter may reject all or part of any order.
 
We have granted to the underwriter an option to purchase from us           additional shares of our common stock at the same price to the public, and with the same underwriting discount, as set forth in the table below. The underwriter may exercise this option any time during the 30-day period after the date of this prospectus supplement, but only to cover over-allotments, if any. To the extent the underwriter exercises the option, the underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase the shares for which it exercises the option.
 
The table below summarizes the underwriting discounts that we and the selling stockholder will pay to the underwriter. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the over-allotment option, as applicable. In addition to the underwriting discount, we have agreed to pay up to $125,000 of the fees and expenses of the underwriter, which may include the fees and expenses of counsel to the underwriter. The fees and expenses of the underwriter that we have agreed to reimburse are not included in the underwriting discounts set forth in the table below. The underwriting discount and reimbursable expenses the underwriter will receive were determined through arms’ length negotiations between us, the selling stockholder and the underwriter.

We estimate that the total expenses of this offering, excluding underwriting discounts, will be $          . This includes $125,000 of the fees and expenses of the underwriter and the fees and expenses of the selling stockholder. These expenses are payable by us.
 
We and the selling stockholders also have agreed to indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including civil liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the underwriter may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

No Sales of Similar Securities
 
We, the selling stockholder and each of our directors and officers have agreed not to offer, sell, agree to sell, directly or indirectly, or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of common stock without the prior written consent of Dougherty & Company LLC for a period of 120 days after the date of this prospectus supplement. These lock-up agreements provide limited exceptions and their restrictions may be waived at any time by Dougherty & Company LLC.
 
Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids
 
To facilitate this offering, the underwriter may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock during and after the offering. Specifically, the underwriter may over-allot or otherwise create a short position in our common stock for its own account by selling more shares of common stock than we or the selling stockholder have sold to the underwriter. The underwriter may close out any short position by either exercising its option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market.
 
In addition, the underwriter may stabilize or maintain the price of our common stock by bidding for or purchasing shares in the open market and may impose penalty bids. If penalty bids are imposed, selling concessions allowed to broker-dealers participating in this offering are reclaimed if shares previously distributed in this offering are repurchased, whether in connection with stabilization transactions or otherwise. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of our common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. The imposition of a penalty bid may also affect the price of our common stock to the extent that it discourages resales of our common stock. The magnitude or effect of any stabilization or other transactions is uncertain. These transactions may be effected on The NASDAQ Capital Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
 
In connection with this offering, the underwriter may also engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market. Passive market making consists of displaying bids on The NASDAQ Capital Market limited by the prices of independent market makers and effecting purchases limited by those prices in response to order flow. Rule 103 of Regulation M promulgated by the SEC limits the amount of net purchases that each passive market maker may make and the displayed size of each bid. Passive market making may stabilize the market price of our common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
 
Neither we nor the underwriter makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor the underwriter makes any representation that the underwriter will engage in these transactions or that any transaction, if commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.
 
The underwriter may facilitate the marketing of this offering online directly or through one of its affiliates. In those cases, prospective investors may view offering terms and a prospectus supplement online and place orders online or through their financial advisors.

OUR COMPANY
 
DRH is a restaurant company operating a single concept, Buffalo Wild Wings® Grill & Bar (“BWW”). As the largest franchisee of BWW, we provide a unique guest experience in a casual and inviting environment. We were incorporated in 2006 and are headquartered in the Detroit metropolitan area. As of December 31, 2017, we had 65 restaurants in Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Missouri.
 
In 2008, DRH became publicly-owned by completing a self-underwritten initial public offering for $735,000 and 140,000 shares. We subsequently completed an underwritten, follow-on offering on April 23, 2013 of 6.9 million shares with net proceeds of $31.9 million.
 
DRH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), AMC Group, Inc. (“AMC”), AMC Wings, Inc. ("WINGS”), and AMC Real Estate, Inc. (“REAL ESTATE”) own and operate BWW restaurants. Our BWW restaurants are located in Michigan, Florida, Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana and include the nation’s largest BWW, based on square footage, in downtown Detroit, Michigan.
 
DRH is continually recognized as a leading franchisee in the BWW system. In 2014 our Chief Operating Officer received the Founders' Award, and in both 2014 and 2015 we were recognized as Franchisee of the Year. In 2015, three of our restaurants were awarded for sales performance and, in 2016, four of the Company's restaurants were recognized as Blazin' 25 restaurants, which rewards the top performing 25 franchise restaurants in the system. Also in 2016, our Chief Operating Officer was awarded the Franchise Advisory Council Excellence Award.

The following organizational chart outlines the current corporate structure of DRH. A brief textual description of the entities follows the organizational chart. DRH is incorporated in Nevada.

 
AMC was formed on March 28, 2007, and serves as our operational and administrative center. AMC renders management, operational support, and advertising services to WINGS, REAL ESTATE and their subsidiaries. Services rendered by AMC include marketing, restaurant operations, restaurant management consultation, hiring and training of management and staff, and other management services reasonably required in the ordinary course of restaurant operations.
 
WINGS was formed on March 12, 2007, and serves as a holding company for our restaurants. We are economically dependent on retaining our franchise rights with BWLD. The franchise agreements have specific initial term expiration dates ranging from December 2020 through June 2037, depending on the date each was executed and the duration of its initial term. The franchise agreements are renewable at the option of the franchisor and are generally renewable if the franchisee has complied with the franchise agreement. When factoring in any applicable renewals, the franchise agreements have specific expiration dates ranging from December 2025 through June 2052. We believe we are in compliance with the terms of these agreements.
 
REAL ESTATE was formed on March 18, 2013, and serves as the holding company for any real estate properties owned by DRH. Currently, DRH does not own any real estate after completing a sale leaseback transaction. Refer to Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the sale leaseback transaction.
 
Our headquarters are located at 27680 Franklin Road, Southfield, Michigan 48034. Our telephone number is (248) 223-9160. We can also be found on the Internet at www.diversifiedrestaurantholdings.com.

RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties and all other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the risks and uncertainties discussed under “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which covers the year that ended December 31, 2017 and which was filed with the SEC on March 9, 2018, and all other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, and the risk factors and other information included in the applicable prospectus supplement.  The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In any such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all, or a part, of your investment.
 
If we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements of the NASDAQ Capital Market, our common stock may be delisted and the price of our common stock and our ability to access the capital markets could be negatively impacted.
 
On June 22, 2018, we received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market stating that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days (through June 21, 2018), the market value of the Company’s listed securities (“ MVLS ”) had been below the minimum of $35 million required for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The notification letter stated that the Company would be afforded 180 calendar days (until December 19, 2018) to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance, the Company’s MVLS must remain at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. The notification letter also states that in the event the Company does not regain compliance within the 180 day period, the Company’s securities may be subject to delisting and that, at that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.  The Company intends to consider all available options to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing standards.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
The following discussion is a summary of the terms of our capital stock, our Articles and Bylaws and certain applicable provisions of Nevada law. Copies of our Articles and Bylaws are exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
 
General
 
We are authorized to issue 110,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 100,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock and 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock.
 
Common Stock
 
General . We have 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 26,922,389 of which are issued and outstanding as of May 8, 2018. All shares of common stock currently outstanding are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and all shares which are the subject of this prospectus, when issued and paid for pursuant to this offering, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
 
Voting Rights . Each share of our common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at meetings of stockholders. Our Board is elected annually at each annual meeting of the stockholders.
 
Dividend Policy . All shares of common stock are entitled to participate ratably in dividends when, as and if declared by our Board out of the funds legally available therefor. Any such dividends may be paid in cash, property or additional shares of common stock. We have not paid any dividends since our inception and presently anticipate that all earnings, if any, will be retained for development of our business and debt reduction, and that no dividends on the shares of common stock will be declared in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our Board and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, our operating and financial condition, our capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent facts. There can be no assurance that any dividends on the common stock will ever be paid.
 
Miscellaneous Rights and Provisions . Holders of common stock have no preemptive or other subscriptions rights, conversion rights, redemption or sinking fund provisions. In the event of the liquidation or dissolution, whether voluntary or involuntary, of DRH, each share of common stock is entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of our equity after satisfaction of all liabilities.
 
Preferred Stock
 
Our Board is authorized under our Articles to provide for the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of such stock and, by filing a certificate of designations under Nevada law, to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by the stockholders. Any shares of preferred stock so issued are likely to have priority over our common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. No preferred shares are issued or outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. The authority of the Board with respect to the preferred stock shall include, but not be limited to, setting or changing the following:
 
1. the annual dividend rate, if any, on shares of preferred stock, the times of payment and the date from which dividends shall be accumulated, if dividends are to be cumulative;
 
2. whether the shares of preferred stock shall be redeemable and, if so, the redemption price and the terms and conditions of such redemption;
 
3. the obligation, if any, of DRH to redeem shares of preferred stock pursuant to a sinking fund;
 
8

 
4. whether shares of preferred stock shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of stock of any other class or classes and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange, including the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the terms of adjustment, if any;
 
5. whether the shares of preferred stock shall have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the extent of such voting rights;
 
6. the rights of the shares of preferred stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of DRH; and
 
7. any other relative rights, powers, preferences, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof relating to the preferred stock.
 
The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable the holder to block such a transaction, or facilitate a business combination by including voting rights that would provide a required percentage vote of the stockholders. In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock. Although the Board is required to make any determination to issue such stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of our stockholders, the Board could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market price of such stock. The Board does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized preferred stock, unless otherwise required by law.

Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “SAUC.”

Anti-takeover Provisions
 
Our Bylaws provide that we are not subject to Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, which generally place certain limitations on acquisitions by or combinations with controlling stockholders.
 
Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws Provisions
 
Provisions of our Articles and Bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Among other things, our Articles and Bylaws:
 
 	●	provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of the Board;	
 
 	●	provide that all vacancies, 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;	
 
9

 
 	●	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 notice in writing in a timely manner, and also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice;	
 
 	●	do not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose);	
 
 	●	authorize the Board, acting by majority vote, to amend portions of the Bylaws adopted by the stockholders, except to the extent the stockholders have specified portions of the Bylaws that cannot be amended by the Board;	
 
 	●	provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the chairman of the Board, our CEO, the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors or holders of shares entitled to cast not less than 25.0% of the votes at the meeting; and	
 
 	●	authorize our Board to issue, without further action by the stockholders, up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the preferences, rights, and powers of such shares.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES 
 
We may offer secured or unsecured debt securities which may be senior or subordinated, and which may be convertible or exchangeable. We will issue the debt securities under one or more separate indentures between us and a trustee to be specified in an accompanying prospectus supplement. We will issue senior debt securities under a senior indenture and subordinated debt securities under a subordinated indenture. Together, the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture are called indentures in this description. This prospectus, together with the applicable prospectus supplement, will describe the terms of a particular series of debt securities.
 
The payment obligations of the issuer under any series of debt securities may be guaranteed by our subsidiaries. If a series of debt securities is so guaranteed, the guarantors will execute the applicable indenture, a supplemental indenture or a notation of guarantee as further evidence of their guarantee. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any guarantee. The obligations of each guarantor under its guarantee may be limited to the maximum amount that will not result in such guarantee obligations constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of that subsidiary and any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other guarantor in respect to its obligations under its guarantee.
 
The following description sets forth selected general terms and provisions of the applicable indenture and debt securities to which any prospectus supplement may relate. Other specific terms of the applicable indenture and debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If any particular terms of the indenture or debt securities described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement. The summary of selected provisions of the indentures and the debt securities appearing below is not complete and is subject to, and qualified entirely by reference to, all of the provisions of the applicable indenture and certificates evidencing the applicable debt securities. You should carefully review the applicable indenture and the certificate evidencing the applicable debt security that is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement that includes the prospectus for additional information. In this description of the debt securities, the words “we,” “us” or “our” refer only Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. and not to any of our subsidiaries, unless we expressly state or the context otherwise requires.
 
General
 
The aggregate principal amount of debt securities that may be issued under the indentures is unlimited. The prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that we may offer will contain the specific terms of the debt securities. These terms may include the following:
 
 	•	the title and aggregate principal amount of the debt securities and any limit on the aggregate principal amount;	
 
 	•	whether the debt securities will be secured or unsecured;	
 
 	•	whether the debt securities will be senior or subordinated;	
 
 	•	any applicable subordination provisions for any subordinated debt securities;	
 
 	•	the maturity date(s) or method for determining same;	
 
 	•	the interest rate(s) or the method for determining same;	
 
 	•	the dates on which interest will accrue or the method for determining dates on which interest will accrue and dates on which interest will be payable and whether interest shall be payable in cash or additional securities;	
 
12

 
 	•	whether the debt securities are convertible or exchangeable into other securities and any related terms and conditions;	
 
 	•	redemption or early repayment provisions;	
 
 	•	authorized denominations;	
 
 	•	if other than the principal amount, the principal amount of debt securities payable upon acceleration;	
 
 	•	place(s) where payment of principal and interest may be made, where debt securities may be presented and where notices or demands upon us may be made;	
 
 	•	whether such debt securities will be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities and the date as which the securities are dated if other than the date of original issuance;	
 
 	•	amount of discount or premium, if any, with which such debt securities will be issued;	
 
 	•	any covenants applicable to the particular debt securities being issued;	
 
 	•	any additions or changes in the defaults and events of default applicable to the particular debt securities being issued;	
 
 	•	the currency, currencies or currency units in which the purchase price for, the principal of and any premium and any interest on, such debt securities will be payable;	
 
 	•	the time period within which, the manner in which and the terms and conditions upon which the holders of the debt securities or we can select the payment currency;	
 
 	•	our obligation or right to redeem, purchase or repay debt securities under a sinking fund, amortization or analogous provision;	
 
 	•	any restriction or conditions on the transferability of the debt securities;	
 
 	•	provisions granting special rights to holders of the debt securities upon occurrence of specified events;	
 
 	•	additions or changes relating to compensation or reimbursement of the trustee of the series of debt securities;	
 
 	•	additions or changes to the provisions for the defeasance of the debt securities or to provisions related to satisfaction and discharge of the applicable indenture;	
 
 	•	provisions relating to the modification of the indentures both with and without the consent of holders of debt securities issued under the indentures and the execution of supplemental indentures for such series; and	
 
 	•	any other terms of the debt securities (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the “TIA”), but may modify, amend, supplement or delete any of the terms of the indenture with respect to such series of debt securities).	

We may sell the debt securities, including original issue discount securities, at par or at a substantial discount below their stated principal amount. Unless we inform you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series or any other series outstanding at the time of issuance. Any such additional debt securities, together with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of securities under the applicable indenture.
 
13

 
We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement any other special considerations for any debt securities we sell which are denominated in a currency or currency unit other than U.S. dollars. In addition, debt securities may be issued where the amount of principal and/or interest payable is determined by reference to one or more currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity indices or other factors. Holders of such securities may receive a principal amount or a payment of interest that is greater than or less than the amount of principal or interest otherwise payable on such dates, depending upon the value of the applicable currencies, commodities, equity indices or other factors. Information as to the methods for determining the amount of principal or interest, if any, payable on any date, the currencies, commodities, equity indices or other factors to which the amount payable on such date is linked.
 
U.S. federal income tax consequences and special considerations, if any, applicable to any such series will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.
 
We expect most debt securities to be issued in fully registered form without coupons and in denominations of US$2,000 and any integral multiples in excess thereof. Subject to the limitations provided in the applicable indenture and in applicable the prospectus supplement, debt securities that are issued in registered form may be transferred or exchanged at the designated corporate trust office of the trustee, without the payment of any service charge, other than any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
 
Global Securities
 
Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities that will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. Global securities will be issued in registered form and in either temporary or definitive form. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the individual debt securities, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary for such global security to a nominee of such depositary or by a nominee of such depositary to such depositary or another nominee of such depositary or by such depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such depositary or a nominee of such successor. The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any debt securities of a series and the rights of and limitations upon owners of beneficial interests in a global security will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
 
Governing Law
 
The indentures and the debt securities shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Nevada.

We may issue units to purchase one or more of the securities referenced herein.  The prospectus supplement relating to units will describe the terms of any units we issue, including as applicable:
 
  	•	the designation and terms of the units and the securities included in the units;	
 	 	 	
 	•	any provision for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units;	
 	 	 	
 	•	the date, if any, on and after which the units may be transferable separately;

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We and the selling stockholder may sell securities directly to purchasers or indirectly through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents.
 
The distribution of the securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.
 
Sales may be effected from time to time by one or more of the following methods permitted pursuant to applicable law, without limitation:
 
  	●	block trades (which may involve crosses) in which a broker or dealer will be engaged to attempt to sell securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;	
 	●	direct sales to purchasers;	
 	●	purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for its own account;	
 	●	an “at the market” offering within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act;	
 	●	an over-the-counter distribution;	
 	●	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases;	
 	●	privately negotiated transactions;	
 	●	bidding or auction process;	
 	●	closing out of short sales;	
 	●	satisfying delivery obligations relating to the writing of options on the securities, whether or not the options are listed on an options exchange;	
 	●	one or more underwritten offerings on a firm commitment or best efforts basis;	
 	●	any combination of any of these methods; or	
 	●	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.	
 
In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 or Rule 144A rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
 
We and/or the selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the offered shares and deliver these shares to close out short positions or loan or pledge the underlying shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares.
  
The selling stockholder may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions, provided that the short sale is made after the registration statement is declared effective.
 
The selling stockholder may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they defaults 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 pursuant to this prospectus.  The selling stockholder also may transfer or donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, donees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The prospectus supplement relating to the securities will set forth the terms of the offering of such securities, including the name or names of any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, the name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters, the purchase price of the securities and the net proceeds to us and/or the selling stockholder, as applicable, from such sale, any delayed delivery arrangements, any underwriting discounts and commissions and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation, any public offering price, any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers, any commissions paid to agents and any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed.
 
15

 
If we use underwriters in the sale of securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.
 
In connection with the sale of the securities, underwriters may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from us, the selling stockholder or the purchasers. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. The selling stockholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.  Any discounts allowed or commissions paid, and any profit on the resale of the securities they realize may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.  Any person who may be deemed to be an underwriter will be identified, and the compensation received from us or the selling stockholder will be described, in the prospectus supplement.  In no event will the aggregate value of compensation received or to be received by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) members or independent broker-dealers exceed 8% for the sale of securities registered hereunder.  If 5% or more of the net proceeds of any offering of securities made under this prospectus will be received by a FINRA member participating in the offering or affiliates or associated persons of such FINRA member, the offering will be conducted in accordance with FINRA Rule 5121 (or any successor rule).
 
The selling stockholder and any person participating in the distribution of securities registered under the registration statement that includes this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and applicable SEC rules and regulations, including, among others, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of our securities by any such person. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of our securities to engage in market-making activities with respect to our securities. We have informed the selling stockholder that the anti-manipulative provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act may apply to its sales in the market. These restrictions may affect the marketability of our securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our securities.
 
 During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, whereby selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if those securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market, and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
 
We and the selling stockholder may sell securities directly to one or more purchasers without using underwriters or agents.  We may also make direct sales through subscription rights distributed to our stockholders on a pro rata basis, which may or may not be transferable.  In any distribution of subscription rights to stockholders, if all of the underlying securities are not subscribed for, we may then sell the unsubscribed securities directly to third parties or may engage the services of one or more underwriters, dealers or agents, including standby underwriters, to sell the unsubscribed securities.
 
The securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws.  In addition, in certain states, the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
 
All securities we offer, other than common stock, will be new issues of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters may make a market in these securities, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot guarantee the liquidity of the trading markets for any securities.
 
16

 
If so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will authorize underwriters or other persons acting as our agents to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in such prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date or dates stated in such prospectus supplement. Each such contract will be for an amount not less than, and the aggregate principal amount of securities sold pursuant to such contracts will be neither less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Institutions with whom such contracts, when authorized, may be made include savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions and other institutions, but will in all cases be subject to our approval.  The obligations of any purchaser under any such contract will be subject to the conditions that:
 
●	the purchase of the securities may not at the time of delivery be prohibited under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States to which such purchaser is subject; and	
 
●	if the securities are being sold to underwriters, we must have sold to such underwriters the total principal amount of such securities less the principal amount thereof covered by such contracts.	
 
Underwriters and agents may be entitled to indemnification by us or the selling stockholder against some civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contributions with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to make relating to these liabilities. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us or the selling stockholder in the ordinary course of business.
 
There can be no assurance that we or the selling stockholder will sell any or all of the securities registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
 
Each selling stockholder has represented to us that at the time of receipt of its shares and at the time of filing the registration statement with the SEC, such selling stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares.
  
The selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any, associated with the sale of its shares.  We and the selling stockholder have agreed to bear all expenses incurred pursuant to this registration statement (excluding attorneys’ fees and disbursements) on a pro rata basis based on the number of shares offered by each party in the registration.  We and the selling stockholder are each responsible for our own attorneys’ fees and disbursements.  We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholder and the selling stockholder has agreed to indemnify us against some specified liabilities, including some that may arise under the Securities Act.
