EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment No. 1”) relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-267947) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 19, 2022, by Rubicon Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”). The Registration Statement registered 31,485,711 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), to be offered and sold under the Rubicon Technologies, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Registration Statement on Form S-8 related to (i) 29,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued under the Plan and (ii) 2,485,711 shares of Common Stock that may become available for issuance under the Plan as a result of the Plan’s evergreen provision.

 

This Amendment No. 1 is being filed by the Company solely for the purpose of (i) including Cherry Bekaert LLP’s consent and report dated March 22, 2023, with respect to the consolidated financial statements of Rubicon Technologies, Inc., which was included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, into the Registration Statement, and (ii) updating “Part II —Information Required in The Registration Statement —Item 3. Incorporation of Documents By Reference” of the Registration Statement to incorporate by reference certain information relating to the Registrant, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

This Amendment No. 1 does not update, amend or modify any other information, statements or disclosure contained in the Registration Statement, except as otherwise referenced herein.

PART II

 

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

 

Item 3. Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference

 

The following documents, which have previously been filed by the Registrant with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act and pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are incorporated by reference herein and shall be deemed to be a part hereof:

 

  (a) the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Commission on March 23, 2023;

 

  (b) the Registrant’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 filed with the Commission on May 12, 2022, for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the Commission on August 12, 2022, and for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022 filed with the Commission on November 21, 2022;

 

  (c) the Registrant’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 2, 2022, April 4, 2022, April 12, 2022, May 20, 2022, June 7, 2022, July 28, 2022, August 3, 2022, August 5, 2022, August 19, 2022, August 23, 2022, August 30, 2022, August 31, 2022, October 14, 2022, November 9, 2022, November 18, 2022, November 25, 2022, December 1, 2022, and December 22, 2022; and

 

  (d) the description of the Registrant’s securities contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission on August 15, 2022, including all amendments or reports filed for the purpose of updating such description.

 

In addition, all documents subsequently filed by the Registrant with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicate that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregister all securities remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless specifically stated to the contrary, none of the information that the Registrant discloses under Items 2.02 or 7.01 of any Current Report on Form 8-K that it may from time to time furnish to the Commission will be incorporated by reference into, or otherwise included in, this Registration Statement.

 

Any statement, including financial statements, contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or therein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

 

Item 4. Description of Securities.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide for the indemnification of current and former officers and directors of the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The Registrant has entered into agreements with its officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Registrant’s certificate of incorporation.

These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against the Registrant’s directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Registrant and its stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent the Registrant pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

 

The Plan also requires the Registrant to indemnify and hold harmless the Compensation Committee of the Registrant’s Board of Directors, and each other employee, officer or director of the Registrant to whom any duty or power to administer or interpret the Plan may be allocated, against any expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan, unless arising out of such person’s own fraud or willful bad faith.

 

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

 

Not applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

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

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

 

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

 

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

 

(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.

 

(h) 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 Commission 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.
