PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

(To Prospectus dated November 28, 2023)

Up to $340,000,000

Common Stock

We have entered into an equity distribution agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPM”) and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“Wells Fargo”) relating to shares of our common stock, par value $1.00 per share, offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus pursuant to an “at the market” equity offering program. In accordance with the terms of the equity distribution agreement, we may offer and sell up to $340,000,000 in shares of our common stock from time to time through JPM and Wells Fargo (the “Agents”) as our agents for the offer and sale of the shares. Sales of the shares will be made at market prices prevailing at the time of sale.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SWX.” On August 5, 2024, the last reported sales price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $71.46 per share.

Sales of our common stock, if any, under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be made in sales deemed to be “at the market” equity offerings as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Agents are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares of our common stock. The Agents will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf all of the shares of common stock requested to be sold by us, consistent with their normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed terms between the Agents and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-10 of this prospectus supplement.

The Agents will receive from us a commission equal to 1.0% of the sales price of all shares sold through them as agents under the equity distribution agreement. In connection with the sale of our common stock on our behalf, the Agents may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the Agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-10 of this prospectus supplement.

Investing in our common stock involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-4 of this prospectus supplement and Item 1A “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as additional risks that may be described in future reports or information that we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in our common stock.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is August 6, 2024.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves risks. You should carefully consider the risks described below together with the risk factors described in reports we file with the SEC and incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as all of the other information in, and incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, before you decide to invest in our common stock. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that event, you may lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.

Risks Relating to This Offering and Our Common Stock

Our common stock price may be volatile or may decline.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly from time to time as a result of many factors, including:

Because our management has broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this offering you may not agree with how we use them, and such proceeds may not be applied successfully.

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from this offering, including for any of the purposes described in “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether such proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. Our management might not apply the net proceeds from this offering in ways that ultimately increase the value of your investment in us. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. If we do not invest or apply the net proceeds from this offering in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause our stock price to decline.

S-4

Sales or issuances of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales or issuances may occur could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Sales or issuances of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales or issuances may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. This could also impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities. Future sales or issuances of our common stock or other equity-related securities could be dilutive to holders of our common stock, including purchasers of our common stock in this offering, and could adversely affect their voting and other rights and economic interests.

It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares we will sell under the equity distribution agreement, or the gross proceeds resulting from those sales.

Subject to certain limitations in the equity distribution agreement and compliance with applicable laws, we have the discretion to deliver a placement notice to the Agents at any time throughout the term of the equity distribution agreement. The number of shares that are sold through the Agents after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock during the term of the equity distribution agreement, the limits we set with the Agents in any applicable placement notice, and the demand for our common stock during the term of the equity distribution agreement. Because the price per share of each share sold will fluctuate during the term of the equity distribution agreement, it is not currently possible to predict the number of shares that will be sold or the gross proceeds to be raised in connection with the sale of shares of common stock offered under this prospectus.

The common stock offered hereby will be sold in “at the market offerings,” and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.

Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices and numbers of shares sold, and subject to the final determination by our board of directors or any restrictions we may place in any applicable placement notice, there is no minimum or maximum sales price. Investors may experience a decline in the value of their shares as a result of sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.

See “Plan of Distribution — Conflicts of Interest” on page S-10 of this prospectus supplement.

S-9

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We have entered into an equity distribution agreement, dated as of August 6, 2024 with the Agents under which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate sales price of up to $340,000,000 from time to time through the Agents as our agents for the offer and sale of the shares. The sales, if any, of the shares of common stock under the equity distribution agreement will be made in “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange at market prices.

From time to time during the term of the equity distribution agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, we may deliver an issuance notice to the Agents specifying the length of the selling period (not to exceed 20 consecutive trading days), the amount of common stock to be sold and the minimum price below which sales may not be made. Upon receipt of an issuance notice from us, and subject to the terms and conditions of the equity distribution agreement, the Agents have agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their normal trading and sales practices to sell such shares on such terms. We or the Agents may suspend the offering of shares of common stock at any time upon proper notice to the others, upon which the selling period will immediately terminate. Settlement between us and the Agents for sales of common stock will occur on the first business day following the date on which any sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed to between us and the Agents in connection with a particular transaction. The obligation of the Agents under the equity distribution agreement to settle such purchases with us pursuant to any issuance notice is subject to a number of conditions, which the Agents reserve the right to waive in their sole discretion. In addition, the shares may be offered and sold by such other methods, including privately negotiated transactions, as we and the Agents agree to in writing.

We will pay the Agents a commission equal to 1.0% of the sales price of all shares sold through them as agents under the equity distribution agreement. The remaining sales proceeds, after deducting any expenses payable by us and any transaction fees imposed by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization in connection with the sales, will equal our net proceeds for the sales of such shares.

We have also agreed to reimburse the Agents for their reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and expenses of counsel, in connection with the equity distribution agreement. We estimate that the expenses of this offering payable by us, excluding compensation payable to the Agents under the terms of the equity distribution agreement, will be approximately $500,000.

We will deliver to the New York Stock Exchange copies of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus pursuant to the rules of the exchange. We will report at least quarterly the number of shares of common stock sold through the Agents in at the market offerings, the net proceeds to us and the compensation paid by us to the Agents in connection with such sales of common stock.

If either an Agent or we have reason to believe that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act are not satisfied, that party will promptly notify the others and sales of our common stock under the equity distribution agreement will be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of such Agent and us.

In connection with the sale of the common stock hereunder, the Agents may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation paid to the Agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to indemnify the Agents against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

The offering of common stock pursuant to the equity distribution agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (1) the sale of all shares of common stock subject to the equity distribution agreement and (2) the termination of the equity distribution agreement by either the Agents or us, in each case upon written notice to the other parties to the equity distribution agreement.

S-10

We have agreed not to directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire our common stock for a period beginning on the first trading day prior to the delivery of any issuance notice to the Agents and ending on the first trading day following the settlement date for the applicable issuance notice, without the prior written consent of the Agents. This consent may be given at any time without public notice. The restriction described in this paragraph does not apply to sales of:

S-12

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) with respect to the ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock. This summary is limited to non-U.S. holders who purchase shares of our common stock issued pursuant to this offering and who hold such shares of our common stock as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based on current provisions of the Code, final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings and judicial opinions, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a particular non-U.S. holder in light of that non-U.S. holder’s specific circumstances, nor does it address the potential application of the Medicare contribution tax, any aspects of U.S. federal estate or gift tax laws, or tax considerations arising under the laws of any non-U.S., state or local jurisdiction. This discussion also does not address tax considerations applicable to a non-U.S. holder that may be subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including, without limitation:

If a partnership (or entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership (or member in such other entity) will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Any partner in a partnership holding shares of our common stock (and such partnership) should consult their own tax advisors.

Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock arising under the U.S. federal estate or gift tax rules or under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S. or other taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.

S-13

Definition of Non-U.S. Holder

For purposes of this summary, a “non-U.S. holder” is any beneficial owner of shares of our common stock that is neither a “U.S. person” nor an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A “U.S. person” is any person that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as any of the following:

Distributions on Our Common Stock

To the extent that we make cash or other property distributions on our common stock, other than certain pro rata distributions of our common stock, such distributions will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current earnings and profits for that taxable year or our accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will, first, constitute a return of capital and reduce a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in their shares of our common stock, but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of shares of our common stock and will be treated as described under the section titled “—Gain on Sale or Other Disposition of Shares of Our Common Stock” below.

Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder of our common stock generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. To obtain the benefit of a reduced treaty rate (subject to the discussion below in the section titled “—FATCA”), a non-U.S. holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a duly completed and properly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form) certifying, under penalties of perjury, such non-U.S. holder’s qualification for the reduced rate.

If a non-U.S. holder holds shares of our common stock in connection with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and dividends paid on shares of our common stock are effectively connected with such non-U.S. holder’s U.S. trade or business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States), the dividends paid to the non-U.S. holder will be exempt from the aforementioned U.S. federal withholding tax. To claim this exemption, the non-U.S. holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or applicable successor form). Effectively connected dividends generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at U.S. federal income tax rates in the same manner as if such non-U.S. holder were a U.S. person, and in the case of a corporate non-U.S. holder also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower treaty rate, if applicable).

A non-U.S. holder that claims exemption from withholding or the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty generally will be required to satisfy applicable certification and other requirements prior to the distribution date. Non-U.S. holders that do not timely provide the applicable withholding agent with the required certification may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of distributions on our common stock.

S-14

Gain on Sale or Other Disposition of Shares of Our Common Stock

Subject to the discussions in the sections titled “—Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” and “–FATCA” below, a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of shares of our common stock unless:

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net-income basis at regular rates and in the same manner applicable to U.S. persons. A non-U.S. holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on effectively connected gain, subject to certain adjustments.

Gain described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty), which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses, subject to certain limitations.

With respect to the third bullet point above, the determination of whether we are a USRPHC generally depends on the fair market value of our U.S. real property interests relative to the fair market value of our non-U.S. real property interests and our other business assets. There can be no assurance that we are not a USRPHC currently or that we will not become a USRPHC in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition by a non-U.S. holder of our common stock will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market (such as the New York Stock Exchange), and such non-U.S. holder has owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our common stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period. Although we intend and expect our common stock to remain regularly traded, we can provide no assurance that our common stock will remain regularly traded. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them if we are or become a USRPHC.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Generally, an applicable withholding agent will be required to report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the amount of dividends paid to, and the tax withheld with respect to, each non-U.S. holder. Under specific treaties or agreements, this information also may be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides or is established. Backup withholding, currently at a 24% rate, generally will not apply to distributions made to a non-U.S. holder of shares of our common stock provided the non-U.S. holder furnishes to the applicable withholding agent the required certification of its non-U.S. status.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, or refunded, provided all required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

S-15

FATCA

Provisions of the Code and related Treasury guidance commonly referred to as “FATCA” require withholding of 30% on payments of dividends on our common stock to “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an applicable exemption is established. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). Although withholding under FATCA would apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our common stock, proposed Treasury regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury regulations until final Treasury regulations are issued. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in our common stock.

OUR COMPANY

Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a holding company headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada. Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Southwest and Centuri, the Company operates in two business segments: natural gas distribution and utility infrastructure services.

Southwest, incorporated in March 1931 under the laws of the state of California, provides regulated natural gas distribution services to customers in portions of Arizona, Nevada, and California. Public utility rates, practices, facilities, and service territories of Southwest are subject to regulatory oversight. The timing and amount of rate relief can materially impact results of operations. Natural gas purchases and the timing of related recoveries can materially impact liquidity. Results for the natural gas distribution segment are higher during winter periods due to the seasonality incorporated in its regulatory rate structures.

Southwest is subject to regulation by the Arizona Corporation Commission, the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada, and the California Public Utilities Commission (the “CPUC”). The CPUC regulates the issuance of all securities by Southwest, with the exception of short-term borrowings. Certain of the Company’s and Southwest’s accounting practices, transmission facilities and rates are subject to regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”). Centuri is not regulated by the state utilities commissions or by the FERC in any of its operating areas.

Centuri is a strategic utility infrastructure services company dedicated to partnering with North America’s electric and gas providers to build and maintain the energy network that powers millions of homes across the United States and Canada. Centuri’s skilled workforce delivers a comprehensive and integrated array of solutions through its primary operating companies: NPL Construction Co., NPL Canada Ltd., New England Utility Constructors, Inc., Linetec Services, LLC, and Riggs Distler & Company, Inc. Centuri has strategically expanded its geographic reach and service offerings through organic and inorganic growth to better meet diverse customer needs across both electric and gas infrastructure, including growing customer attention to achieving environmental objectives. On December 15, 2022, we announced that our board of directors (the “Board”) had determined to separate Centuri from Southwest Gas Holdings into a standalone, independent public company. On September 22, 2023, we announced that Centuri Holdings, Inc. (“Centuri Holdings”) had confidentially submitted a draft registration statement with respect to an initial public offering of its shares of common stock (the “Centuri IPO”). We remain committed to separating Centuri and continue to assess the value of a potential tax-free spin-off of Centuri, either following, or in lieu of, a potential initial public offering by Centuri. Following a Centuri IPO, if one occurs, we intend to maintain the flexibility to dispose of our remaining Centuri interests in a number of ways, including through a spin-off transaction, open market sales of Centuri Holdings common stock or an exchange offer of our common stock for Centuri Holdings common stock.

Our corporate headquarters is located at 8360 S. Durango Drive, P.O. Box 98510, Las Vegas, Nevada 89150-8510, telephone number (702) 876-7237.

No other classes of capital stock are authorized under our certificate of incorporation.

The following description of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.’s capital stock is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the Tax-Free Spin Protection Plan, dated as of November 5, 2023 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), between the Company and Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, as rights agent. Therefore, you should read carefully the more detailed provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the Plan, copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Common Stock

We have one class of common stock. All holders of our common stock are entitled to the same rights and privileges, as described below.

Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by law, each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders, including the election of directors.

Dividends. The holders of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board may from time to time declare, subject to any rights of holders of outstanding shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. preferred stock.

Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc., whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock, subject to any rights of the holders of outstanding shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. preferred stock, are entitled to receive any remaining assets of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. after the discharge of its liabilities.

Rights and Preferences. Holders of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights to subscribe for, or purchase any part of, any new or additional issue of stock or securities convertible into stock. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock does not contain any redemption provisions or conversion rights and is not liable to assessment or further call.

Preferred Stock Purchase Rights

On November 3, 2023, the Board authorized a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock, which was paid to holders of record of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock as of 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on November 17, 2023 (the “Record Date”). The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in the Plan. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one ten-thousandth (a “Unit”) of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, no par value per share, of the Company (the “Series A Preferred”), at a purchase price of $300.00 per one ten-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment.

The Plan is intended to preserve the Company’s ability to effectuate a separation of Centuri Holdings (the “Spin-Off Transaction”) that would be tax-free to the Company (the “Tax-Free Status”), which status could

6

be lost if certain stock purchases (including by existing or new holders in the open market) are treated as part of a plan pursuant to which one or more persons directly or indirectly acquire a 50% or greater interest in the Company (a “355 Ownership Change”) within applicable time periods for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Distribution Date. Initially, the Rights will be attached to all shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock, and no separate certificates evidencing the Rights will be issued. Subject to certain exceptions, until the Distribution Date (as defined below), the Company will issue one Right with each new share of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock issued after the Record Date so that all shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock will have Rights attached, the Rights will be transferred with and only with Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock, and any transfer of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock will constitute a transfer of the associated Rights. After the Distribution Date, the Rights will separate from the Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock and, as soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Rights Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and such separate Rights Certificates alone will evidence the Rights.

The “Distribution Date” means the earlier of:

Exercisability. The Rights will not be exercisable until the Distribution Date. After the Distribution Date, each Right will be exercisable to purchase from the Company one ten-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred for the Purchase Price. Prior to exercising their Rights, holders of Rights in that capacity have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote or receive dividends.

Consequences of a Person or Group Becoming an Acquiring Person.

7

Expiration. The Rights will expire on the earliest of (a) the close of business on the date that is two years after the date on which the Spin-Off Transaction is consummated (consistent with a presumption period for testing for a 355 Ownership Change), (b) the close of business on the date on which the Board determines to no longer pursue the Spin-Off Transaction or that the Spin-Off Transaction will not be consummated with Tax-Free Status, (c) the time at which the Rights are redeemed or exchanged pursuant to the Plan, (d) the close of business on the business day following the certification of the voting results of the Company’s 2024 annual stockholders meeting, if at such meeting the approval of the Plan has not been obtained, (e) the close of business on the day that is 270 days after the date of the Plan, if the approval of the Company’s stockholders has not been obtained by such date and only if as of such date the Amended and Restated Cooperation Agreement, dated as of October 24, 2022, by and among the Icahn Group (as defined in the Plan) and the Company (as it may be amended, modified, supplemented and/or amended and restated in accordance with the terms thereof from time to time) remains in effect and the Icahn Ownership Event (as defined in the Plan) has not occurred or (f) the time at which the Board determines that there is no longer a risk of a 355 Ownership Change occurring or that a 355 Ownership Change would not in any material respect adversely impact or otherwise impair the Tax-Free Status.

Process to Seek Exemption. The Plan includes procedures by which the Board will consider requests, prior to the date of public announcement that a person has become an Acquiring Person, from any person who desires to effect any acquisition of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock that would, if consummated, result in such person beneficially owning 4.9% (9.9% in the case of a passive investor or, in the case of the Icahn Group or any member of the Icahn Group, the applicable amounts set forth in the Plan) or more of the then outstanding shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock. The Board will only grant an exemption in response to an exemption request if the Board determines that the acquisition of shares of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock by the requesting person (A) will not in any material respect adversely impact or otherwise impair the Tax-Free Status or (B) is in the best interests of the Company despite the fact that it may adversely impact in a material respect or otherwise impair the Tax-Free Status.

Redemption of the Rights. At any time before the Distribution Date, the Board may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, for $0.0001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). The Redemption Price is payable, at the option of the Company, in cash, Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. common stock or such other form of consideration as the Board shall determine. Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price. The Redemption Price will be subject to adjustment.

Amendment. For so long as the Rights are then redeemable, the Company may amend the Plan in any manner.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The following text describes the general terms and provisions of debt securities that Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and/or Southwest Gas Corporation may offer from time to time. For purposes of this “Description of Debt Securities,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the relevant issuer of debt securities, Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as the case may be, and not to their respective subsidiaries.

When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in a prospectus supplement. We will also indicate in any applicable prospectus supplement whether the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities. Unless otherwise specified in any applicable prospectus supplement, the senior debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. To the extent we issue secured or subordinated debt securities, the terms will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The debt securities of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. will be issued under an indenture between Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Holdings Indenture”) in the form included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Unless otherwise specified in any applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities of Southwest Gas Corporation will be issued under the indenture, dated as of June 4, 2020, by and between Southwest Gas Corporation and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Corporation Indenture” and, together with the Holdings Indenture, the “Indentures”). Each Indenture describes the terms of the debt securities and does not limit the amount of debt securities or other unsecured, senior debt we may issue. We have summarized the general terms and provisions of the debt securities to be governed by each Indenture. The summary is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all provisions of the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). We encourage you to read the Indentures. Capitalized terms used in this description of our debt securities have the meanings ascribed to them in the applicable Indenture.

General

The terms of each series of debt securities will be established by the Board or a committee thereof and set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or by a supplemental indenture to the relevant Indenture. The particular terms of each series of debt securities will be described in a prospectus supplement relating to such series.

We may issue debt securities in one or more series with the same or various maturities, at par, at a premium or at a discount. We need not issue all debt securities of one series at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, we may without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of that series reopen a series and issue additional debt securities of that series. We will set forth in a prospectus supplement the aggregate principal amount of any series of debt securities being offered and their specific terms, including, to the extent applicable, the following terms:

11

We will provide you with information on the federal income tax considerations and other special considerations applicable to any of these debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement.

12

If we denominate the purchase price of any of the debt securities in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, or if the principal of, and premium and interest on, any series of debt securities is payable in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, we will provide you with information on the restrictions, elections, general tax considerations, specific terms and other information with respect to that issue of debt securities and such foreign currency or currencies or foreign currency unit or units in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Transfer and Exchange

Each debt security will be represented by either one or more global securities registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, as depositary, or a nominee (which we refer to, in the case of any debt security represented by a global debt security, as a “book-entry debt security”), or a certificate issued in definitive registered form (which we refer to, in the case of any debt security represented by a certificated security, as a “certificated debt security”) as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Except as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, book-entry debt securities will not be issuable in certificated form.

You may transfer or exchange certificated debt securities at any office we maintain for this purpose in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of certificated debt securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with a transfer or exchange.

You may effect the transfer of certificated debt securities and the right to receive the principal of, and any premium and interest on, certificated debt securities only by surrendering the certificate representing those certificated debt securities and either execution by us, and authentication and delivery by the Trustee, of the certificate to the new holder or execution by us, and authentication and delivery by the Trustee, of a new certificate to the new holder.

Covenants

We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement any financial or restrictive covenants applicable to any issue of debt securities.

No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not contain any provisions which may afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction (whether or not such transaction results in a change in control) which could adversely affect holders of debt securities.

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

We or any guarantor of the debt securities shall not consolidate with or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of our properties or assets to, or merge with or into, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, any Person unless:

13

Events of Default

“Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

A default constituting a Covenant Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee (by written notice to us) or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series (by written notice to us and the Trustee) gives notice of the default and we do not cure such default within 90 days after receipt of such notice.

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the relevant Indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our Subsidiaries outstanding from time to time.

In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. If any other Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the Trustee if given by the holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all debt securities of that series. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind the acceleration and its consequences if all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the relevant Indenture. We refer you to the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

14

The Indentures provide that the Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any of its rights or powers under the relevant Indenture unless the Trustee receives indemnity and/or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense which might be incurred by it in performing such duty or exercising such right or power. Subject to certain rights of the Trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the debt securities of that series.

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to pursue any remedy under the relevant Indenture or that series of debt securities, unless:

Notwithstanding any other provision in the relevant Indenture, the holder of any series of debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that series of debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment.

Each Indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, to deliver to the Trustee a certificate as to compliance with such Indenture.

Modification and Waiver

We and the Trustee may modify, amend or supplement the relevant Indenture or the debt securities of any series without notice to or the consent of any holder of any debt security:

15

We may also modify and amend the relevant Indenture with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or amendments. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of each affected holder of a series of debt securities then outstanding if that amendment will:

Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive our compliance with provisions of the relevant Indenture. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the relevant Indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series; provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration.

16

Discharge of Debt Securities

When all outstanding debt securities of any series will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year and we have deposited (or caused to be deposited) with the Trustee cash sufficient to pay and discharge all outstanding debt securities of such series on the date of their stated maturity, then we may satisfy and discharge our obligations under the relevant Indenture with respect to such debt securities while they remain outstanding.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees or Stockholders

None of our past, present or future directors, officers, employees or stockholders, as such, will have any liability for any of our obligations under the debt securities or the relevant Indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a debt security, each holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the debt securities. However, this waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Governing Law

The Indentures and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

Concerning the Trustee

The Indentures and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, which are incorporated by reference therein, contain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become one of our creditors, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on property received in respect of any such claim, as security or otherwise. The Trustee and its affiliates may engage in, and will be permitted to continue to engage in, other transactions with us and our affiliates; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate the conflict or resign. The Trust Indenture Act and the relevant Indenture provide that in case an Event of Default shall occur (and be continuing), the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its rights and powers, to use the same degree of care and skill of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provision, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the relevant Indenture at the request of any of the holders of the debt securities issued thereunder, unless they have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it.

17

DESCRIPTION OF GUARANTEES

The debt securities of any series of the applicable issuer may have the benefit of guarantees (each, a “Guarantee”), by one or more of its subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor”). In the case of Southwest Gas Corporation, the debt securities may or may not be guaranteed by Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc., its direct parent. The Guarantees, if any, will be the unsubordinated and, unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, unsecured obligations of the respective Guarantors. The Guarantors of any series of guaranteed debt securities of each issuer may differ from the Guarantors of any other series of guaranteed debt securities of each issuer. In the event Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as applicable, issues a series of guaranteed debt securities, the specific Guarantors of the debt securities of that series will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

If Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as applicable, issues a series of guaranteed debt securities, a description of some of the terms of Guarantees of those debt securities will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement relating to a series of guaranteed debt securities, each Guarantor of the debt securities of such series will unconditionally guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on and any other amounts payable with respect to, each debt security of such series and the due and punctual performance of all of the applicable issuer’s other obligations under the applicable Indenture with respect to the debt securities of such series, all in accordance with the terms of such debt securities and the applicable Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement relating to a series of guaranteed debt securities, the applicable Indenture will contain provisions to the effect that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantees and such Indenture shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under such Guarantees and such Indenture not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. However, there can be no assurance that, notwithstanding such limitation, a court would not determine that a Guarantee constituted a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. If that were to occur, the court could void the applicable Guarantor’s obligations under that Guarantee, subordinate that Guarantee to other debt and other liabilities of that Guarantor or take other action detrimental to holders of the debt securities of the applicable series, including directing the holders to return any payments received from the applicable Guarantor.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of guaranteed debt securities will specify other terms of the applicable Guarantees, which may include provisions that allow a Guarantor to be released from its obligations under its Guarantee under specified circumstances or that provide for one or more Guarantees to be secured by specified collateral.

Unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, each Guarantee will be the unsubordinated and unsecured obligation of the applicable Guarantor and will rank on a parity in right of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees of such Guarantor. Each Guarantee (other than a secured Guarantee) will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness and secured guarantees of the applicable Guarantor to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness and those guarantees. Consequently, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Guarantor that has provided an unsecured Guarantee of any debt securities, the holders of that Guarantor’s secured indebtedness and secured guarantees will be entitled to proceed directly against the collateral that secures that secured indebtedness or those secured guarantees, as the case may be, and such collateral will not be available for satisfaction of any amount owed by such Guarantor under its unsecured indebtedness and unsecured guarantees, including its unsecured Guarantees of any debt securities, until that secured debt and those secured guarantees are satisfied in full. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Indentures will not limit the ability of any Guarantor to incur secured indebtedness or issue secured guarantees.

18

Unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, each secured Guarantee will be an unsubordinated obligation of the applicable Guarantor and will rank on a parity in right of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees of such Guarantor, except that such secured Guarantee will effectively rank senior to such Guarantor’s unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees in respect of claims against the collateral securing that secured Guarantee.

19

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

The following description of depositary shares is only a summary and is qualified by any prospectus supplement and deposit agreement and depositary receipt used in connection with the issuance of each series of preferred stock issued through the use of depositary shares. Therefore, you should read carefully the more detailed description that would be contained in any prospectus supplement and form of deposit agreement and depositary receipt, copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

We may offer fractional shares of preferred stock by issuing receipts for depositary shares. The shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited with a bank or trust company and the holders will be issued a depositary receipt entitling them, in proportion to the fraction of a share the receipt represents, to all the rights and preferences of the preferred stock, as more fully described above under the heading “Description of Capital Stock—Preferred Stock.”

The bank or trust company that will be the depositary will function as the intermediary between Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and the holders of the depositary receipts. Dividends and other distributions will be provided to the depositary for ultimate distribution to the holders. Redemption of the depositary shares and voting the underlying preferred stock will also be coordinated through the depositary. Holders will have the right to surrender their depositary receipts to the depositary and be entitled to receive whole shares of preferred stock that are represented by such receipts. Though the preferred stock will continue to have all of the rights and preferences, there may be no market opportunity to trade such stock and once withdrawn from the depositary, it may not be redeposited.

We will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangement. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. will also pay charges of the depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the preferred stock and the initial issuance of the depositary receipts, any redemption of the preferred stock and any withdrawal of preferred stock by the holder of the depositary shares. Holders will pay other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and such other charges specifically provided in the deposit agreement for their individual accounts.

20

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

General

We may issue warrants to purchase debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares or any combination of these securities. We may issue the warrants independently or together with any underlying securities, and the warrants may be attached or separate from the underlying securities. We may also issue a series of warrants under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants of such series and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency for or with holders or beneficial owners of warrants.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to the warrants that we may issue. The summary is not complete. When warrants are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the warrants as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of warrants in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all the provisions of any specific warrant document or agreement, which we will file with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a warrant document when it is filed.

When we refer to a series of warrants, we mean all warrants issued as part of the same series under the applicable warrant agreement.

Terms

The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants that we may offer will contain the specific terms of the warrants. These terms may include the following:

21

Warrant Agreements

We may issue the warrants in one or more series under one or more warrant agreements, each to be entered into between us and a bank, trust company, or other financial institution as warrant agent. We may add, replace, or terminate warrant agents from time to time. We may also choose to act as our own warrant agent or may choose one of our subsidiaries to do so.

The warrant agent under a warrant agreement will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants issued under that agreement. The warrant agent will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of those warrants. Any holder of warrants may, without the consent of any other person, enforce by appropriate legal action, on its own behalf, its right to exercise those warrants in accordance with their terms. Until the warrant is properly exercised, no holder of any warrant will be entitled to any rights of a holder of the warrant property purchasable upon exercise of the warrant.

Form, Exchange, and Transfer

We may issue the warrants in registered form or bearer form. Warrants issued in registered form, i.e., book-entry form, will be represented by a global security registered in the name of a depository, which will be the holder of all the warrants represented by the global security. Those investors who own beneficial interests in a global warrant will do so through participants in the depository’s system, and the rights of these indirect owners will be governed solely by the applicable procedures of the depository and its participants. In addition, we may issue warrants in non-global form, i.e., bearer form. If any warrants are issued in non-global form, warrant certificates may be exchanged for new warrant certificates of different denominations, and holders may exchange, transfer, or exercise their warrants at the warrant agent’s office or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material.

Prior to the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants exercisable for debt securities will not have any of the rights of holders of the debt securities purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to payments of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the debt securities purchasable upon such exercise. Prior to the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants exercisable for shares of preferred stock or common stock will not have any rights of holders of the preferred stock or common stock purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to dividend payments, if any, or voting rights of the preferred stock or common stock purchasable upon such exercise.

Exercise of Warrants

A warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash an amount of securities at an exercise price that will be stated in, or that will be determinable as described in, the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

Warrants may be exercised as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. Upon receipt of payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the prospectus supplement or other offering material, we will forward, as soon as practicable, the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If less than all of the warrants represented by such warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining warrants.

22

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

General

We may issue units composed of any combination of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. We will issue each unit so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. As a result, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to units that we may offer. The summary is not complete. When units are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the units as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the unit agreement and, if applicable, collateral arrangements and depositary arrangements relating to such units. We will file these documents with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a document when it is filed.

The applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material may describe:

The applicable provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Debt Securities,” “Description of Guarantees,” “Description of Capital Stock” and “Description of Warrants,” will apply to each unit and to each security included in each unit, respectively.

23

DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS

We may from time to time, issue rights to purchase our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or other securities. The rights may or may not be transferable by the persons purchasing or receiving the rights. In connection with any rights offering, we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed after such rights offering.

Each series of rights will be issued under a separate rights agreement to be entered into, from time to time, between us and a bank or trust company, as rights agent, all as set forth in a prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of rights. The rights agent will act solely as an agent of ours in connection with the certificates relating to the rights and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to rights that we may offer. The summary is not complete. When rights are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the rights as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the rights agreement and, if applicable, underwriting or other arrangements relating to such rights. We will file these documents with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a document when it is filed.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the rights to be issued, including the following where applicable:

If less than all of the rights issued in any rights offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to persons other than our security holders, to or through agents, underwriters or dealer or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby arrangements, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

24

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities described in this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions:

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any resale of the securities. A prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any sale of securities we are offering hereunder. Direct sales may be arranged by a securities broker-dealer or other financial intermediary.

The applicable prospectus supplement will name any underwriter involved in a sale of securities. Underwriters may offer and sell securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices or at negotiated prices. Underwriters may be deemed to have received compensation from us from sales of securities in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may be involved in any “at the market” offering of securities by or on our behalf.

Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions (which may be changed from time to time) from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the obligations of any underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities if any are purchased.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth whether or not underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including, for example, by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids.

We will name any agent involved in a sale of securities, as well as any commissions payable to such agent, in a prospectus supplement.

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a reasonable efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus, we and/or one or more selling stockholders will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in a sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions, under the Securities Act. We may have agreements with underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimburse them for certain expenses.

25

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” into this prospectus the information in other documents that we file with it, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information that we incorporate by reference is considered to be a part of this prospectus.
