EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Astrana Health, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register the offering of an additional 2,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Registrant, which are issuable under the Astrana Health, Inc. Amended and Restated 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as a result of an increase to the reserve under the Plan, as approved by the Registrant’s stockholders at the Registrant’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 11, 2025.

 

The additional shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan are securities of the same class as other securities for which a Registration Statement on Form S-8 was filed with the Commission on June 12, 2024 (File No. 333-280143) (the “Prior Registration Statement”). Accordingly, the contents of the Prior Registration Statement are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement pursuant to General Instruction E of Form S-8, except to the extent supplemented, amended or superseded by the information set forth below.

 

PART II

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

 

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

 

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

 

· the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Commission on March 14, 2025 (including the information incorporated by reference therein from the Registrant’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed on April 25, 2025);

 

· the Registrant’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, filed with the Commission on May 9, 2025;

 

· the Registrant’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on January 21, 2025, February 27, 2025, March 28, 2025, and June 11, 2025 (excluding any information furnished in such reports under Item 2.02, Item 7.01 or Item 9.01); and

 

· the description of the Registrant’s common stock set forth in Exhibit 4.1 of the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, together with any amendment or report filed with the Commission for the purpose of updating such description.

 

All documents filed by the Registrant with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (other than those furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 or Item 7.01 of Form 8-K or other information “furnished” to the Commission) subsequent to the filing of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment that indicates that all securities offered have been sold or that deregisters all securities then remaining unsold will be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein will be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded will not be deemed, except as modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

 

 

 

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. 

 

Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to, among other things, eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director or officer to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, provided that such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of (i) a director or officer for any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) a director or officer for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) a director under Section 174 of the DGCL, (iv) a director or officer for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, or (v) an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation. No such provision may eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision became effective.

 

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or a person serving at the request of the corporation for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in related capacities, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding to which he or she was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification will be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court deems proper.

 

The Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), provides for indemnification of the Registrant’s current and former directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that the Registrant will advance expenses to such persons, subject to the Registrant’s receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as may be required under the DGCL. The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Registrant has the power to indemnify current and former directors under substantially the same terms of Section 145 of the DGCL, as described above, and may advance expenses to such persons, subject to the receipt of an undertaking to repay such amounts unless it is determined that such person is entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant as authorized by the Amended and Restated Bylaws. In addition, the Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of directors and officers to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as described above. These indemnification provisions may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant’s officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.

 

The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with certain directors and executive officers to provide these directors and executive officers additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and to provide additional procedural protections. The Registrant’s directors and officers are also covered by insurance policies maintained by the Registrant against certain liabilities for actions taken in their capacities as such, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
