| The number of shares of Class 2 common stock to be outstanding after this offering is based on 66,127,375 shares of Class 2 common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2018, after giving effect to the voluntary conversion by Privateer Holdings, Inc. of 58,333,333 shares of our Class 1 common stock into 58,333,333 shares of our Class 2 common stock immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the conversion of all outstanding shares of our Series A preferred stock into an aggregate of 7,794,042 shares of our Class 2 common stock immediately prior to the closing of this offering. |
The section titled Principal Stockholders has been amended to read as follows:
PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS
The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our capital stock as of June 30, 2018, after giving effect to the conversion of all of our Series A preferred stock into Class 2 common stock, by:
| each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our Class 1 common stock or Class 2 common stock; |
| each of our named executive officers; |
| each of our directors; and |
| all of our executive officers and directors as a group. |
The percentage of shares beneficially owned before the offering shown in the table is based on shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2018, after giving effect to (1) the voluntary conversion of 58,333,333 shares of our Class 1 common stock into 58,333,333 shares of our Class 2 common stock immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and (2) the conversion of all of our Series A preferred stock into Class 2 common stock. The percentage of shares beneficially owned after this offering assumes the sale by us of 9,000,000 shares of Class 2 common stock in this offering.
Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC and generally means that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power of that security, including stock options that are exercisable within 60 days of June 30, 2018. Our shares of Class 2 common stock issuable pursuant to stock options are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding such options and the percentage of any group of which the person is a member but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose, including for purposes of Section 13(d) and 13(g) of the Securities Act.
Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o Tilray, Inc., 2701 Eastlake Avenue E., 3rd Floor, Seattle, WA 98102.
