Getaround, Inc.

1,542,338 Shares of Common Stock

This reoffer prospectus (this “prospectus”) relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders named in this prospectus (the “Selling Stockholders”), or their permitted transferees, of up to 1,542,338 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), of Getaround, Inc. (unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, “Getaround,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”), a Delaware corporation. This prospectus covers shares of common stock that are issuable to the Selling Stockholders in respect of awards granted to the Selling Stockholders under the Getaround, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Stock Plan (the “2010 Plan”) which awards were assumed by us in connection with the closing on December 8, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 11, 2022 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, TMPST Merger Sub I Inc., TMPST Merger Sub II LLC and Getaround, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, collectively, the “Business Combination”). We are not offering any shares of common stock and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

Subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to vesting of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus pursuant to the terms of the 2010 Plan and the relevant award agreements, and upon expiration of the lock-up agreements described herein, the Selling Stockholders may from time to time sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus through underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers (or a single purchaser) or through broker-dealers or agents. If underwriters or dealers are used to sell the shares, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. The common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, prevailing market prices at the time of sale, prices related to the prevailing market prices, varying prices determined at the time of sale or negotiated prices. We do not know when or in what amount the Selling Stockholders may offer the shares for sale. The Selling Stockholders may sell any, all or none of the shares offered by this prospectus. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 6 for more information about how the Selling Stockholders may sell or dispose of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders will bear all sales commissions and similar expenses. We will bear all expenses of registration incurred in connection with this offering, including any other expenses incurred by us in connection with the registration and offering that are not borne by the Selling Stockholders.

The Selling Stockholders are certain of our executive officers and directors, each of whom may be considered an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) of the Company. Shares of common stock that are issuable to the Selling Stockholders in respect of awards granted to the Selling Stockholders under the 2010 Plan will be “control securities” under the Securities Act before their sale under this prospectus. This prospectus has been prepared for the purposes of registering the shares of common stock under the Securities Act to allow for future sales by the Selling Stockholders on a continuous or delayed basis to the public without restriction. The number of shares of common stock to be offered or resold by means of this prospectus by each Selling Stockholder, and any other person with whom such Selling Stockholder is acting in concert for the purpose of selling shares of common stock, may not exceed, during any three-month period, the amount specified in Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GETR”. On February 13, 2023, the closing price of our common stock was $0.65 per share.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus and any of our subsequent filings with the SEC, the information in the document having the later date shall modify or supersede the earlier statement.

Overview

Getaround is a global carsharing marketplace, powered by proprietary technology designed to make sharing cars simple, digital, on-demand, and automated. We reimagined the traditional car ownership model by empowering consumers, whom we refer to as our guests, to instantly and conveniently access safe, affordable and desirable cars they need while providing earnings potential to car owners who supply them, whom we refer to as our hosts. Our marketplace is designed to allow for a fully digital and contactless experience, without guests needing to wait in line at a car rental facility, manually fill out any paperwork, or meet anyone in person to exchange keys. Since launching in 2011, we have been focused on building and innovating our digital carsharing marketplace in the United States and internationally. As of September 30, 2022, our platform supports approximately 1.7 million unique guests and has approximately 72,000 active cars in more than 1,000 cities across 8 countries worldwide, including in the United States and across Europe.

We believe booking and sharing cars should be a frictionless and hassle-free experience. Our proprietary cloud-based platform, which we call the Getaround Connect Cloud Platform, creates a digital experience that makes it easy for guests to find cars nearby, and for hosts to share their cars with guests, in both high and low population-density geographies. To date, we have facilitated approximately 6.5 million carsharing trips and our hosts have earned more than $390 million via our marketplace, leading the digital transformation of carsharing with 20 times as many connected cars on our network as compared to our closest competitor as of 2021, according to our estimates.

We have established a broad network of loyal hosts and guests on our platform. Hosts benefit from low entry costs, digital fleet management, and dynamic pricing algorithms and optimization informed through data analytics. Guests benefit from an easy-to-use platform, the ability 24/7 to book cars located nearby by the hour or day, and a contactless booking, pickup and return experience, eliminating the need for in-person interaction. We leverage our powerful technology platform, our scaled network, and the rich data captured from trips to derive insights and to innovate in order to provide hosts and guests an offering that we believe is superior.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.  333-269571), filed with the SEC on February 3, 2023, and under the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments thereto, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety, together with all of the other information appearing in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before making an investment decision. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.” Our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are not material. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. Unless otherwise indicated, references in these risk factors to our business being harmed will include harm to our business, reputation, brand, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. In such event, the market price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks we have described also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The Selling Stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. See “Plan of Distribution” below for more information.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The shares of common stock offered hereby are being registered for the account of the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus. All proceeds from the sales of the common stock will go to the Selling Stockholders and we will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders.

Table of Contents

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The shares of common stock offered by the Selling Stockholders hereunder represent shares issuable to the Selling Stockholders in respect of awards granted to the Selling Stockholders under the 2010 Plan prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. When we refer to the “Selling Stockholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors, designees and others who later come to hold any of the Selling Stockholders’ interest in the common stock other than through a public sale.

The following table sets forth information with respect to the Selling Stockholders and the shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders as of February 10, 2023. The percentage of beneficial ownership is calculated based on 92,085,970 shares of our common stock outstanding as of that date.

Because each Selling Stockholder may dispose of all, none or some portion of their shares, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares that will be beneficially owned by a Selling Stockholder upon termination of this offering. For purposes of the table below, however, we have assumed that after termination of this offering none of the shares covered by this prospectus will be beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders and further assumed that the Selling Stockholders will not acquire beneficial ownership of any additional shares during the offering. In addition, the Selling Stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their shares after the date on which they provided us with information regarding their shares.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on information furnished to us, that the persons named in the table below have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws. Unless otherwise indicated below, the address of each Selling Stockholder listed in the table below is c/o Getaround, Inc., 55 Green Street, San Francisco, California 94111.

Please see the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the Selling Stockholders’ method of distributing these securities.

Table of Contents

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. In connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders may also sell the shares short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

A Selling Stockholder may also pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution, may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

A Selling Stockholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell shares covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use shares pledged by any Selling Stockholder or borrowed from any Selling Stockholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use shares received from any Selling Stockholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, any Selling Stockholder may otherwise loan or pledge shares to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the shares short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the Selling Stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

In offering the shares covered by this prospectus, the Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. Any profits realized by the Selling Stockholders and the compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares 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.

We have advised the Selling Stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

At the time a particular offer of shares is made, if required, a prospectus supplement will be distributed that will set forth the number of shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name of any underwriter, dealer or agent, the purchase price paid by any underwriter, any discount, commission and other item constituting compensation, any discount, commission or concession allowed or reallowed or paid to any dealer, and the proposed selling price to the public.

Certain agents, underwriters and dealers, and their associates and affiliates, may be customers of, have borrowing relationships with, engage in other transactions with, or perform services, including investment banking services, for us or one or more of our respective affiliates and/or the Selling Stockholders or one or more of its respective affiliates in the ordinary course of business for which they receive compensation.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The DGCL provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws together provide for indemnification by the Registrant of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for such limitation of liability to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

The Registrant has entered into, and expects to continue to enter into, indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These agreements provide that the Registrant will indemnify each of its directors and such officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The Registrant maintains insurance policies that indemnify its directors and officers against various liabilities arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act that might be incurred by any director or officer in his or her capacity as such.

Certain of the Registrant’s non-employee directors may, through their relationships with their employers, be insured and/or indemnified against certain liabilities incurred in their capacity as members of the Registrant’s board of directors.

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 the 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 SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

  (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) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by such paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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.

 

II-3


Table of Contents
  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.

 

  c.

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 SEC 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 hereby, 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.
