EXPLANATORY NOTE

Effective as of June 6, 2013, Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. changed its state of incorporation from Oregon to Delaware. This reincorporation was effectuated by a merger (the “Reincorporation Merger”) of Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc., an Oregon corporation (“Sarepta Oregon”), with and into Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sarepta Delaware”), then a wholly owned Delaware subsidiary established for such purpose. The Reincorporation Merger was approved by the requisite vote of stockholders at Sarepta Oregon’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 4, 2013. Sarepta Delaware is deemed to be the successor issuer of Sarepta Oregon under Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Sarepta Oregon and Sarepta Delaware, as issuer and successor issuer, respectively, under Rule 12g-3 of the Exchange Act, are collectively referred to herein as the “Registrant.”

The Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-184807 (the “Registration Statement”), pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), solely to update the Registration Statement as a result of the Registrant’s reincorporation in the State of Delaware from the State of Oregon via the Reincorporation Merger.

In accordance with Rule 414(d) under the Securities Act, except as modified by this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the Registrant, now as successor issuer to Sarepta Oregon pursuant to Rule 12g-3 of the Exchange Act, hereby expressly adopts the Registration Statement as its own registration statement for all purposes of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as updated by subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, including, but not limited to, the Registrant’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and the description of the common stock of the Registrant as set forth in the Current Report on Form 8-K12B, filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 6, 2013 pursuant to Rule 12g-3(f) of the Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.


PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

ITEM 14. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

The information set forth in this item is incorporated by reference from Item 14 of the Registrant’s registration statement on Form S-3ASR, File No. 333-184807 filed with the SEC on November 7, 2012.

 

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, and our bylaws provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL. In addition, we intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors, officers and some employees containing provisions which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the DGCL. The indemnification agreements will require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. In addition, we carry director and officer liability insurance.
