EXPLANATORY NOTE
Quantum Computing Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and other similar terms) is filing this Amendment No. 3 (this “Third Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2023 (the “Original Form 10-K”) and as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2023 and Amendment No. 2 to the Original Form 10-K filed on June 26, 2023, for the purpose of amending the beneficial ownership table contained in Part III, Item 12 and updating the exhibit index contained in Part IV, Item 15 to include the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws, Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and 2022 Equity Incentive Plan that were adopted and approved by the shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting held on September 21, 2022.
Accordingly, this Third Amendment consists only of the facing page, this explanatory note, Item 12, Item 15, the signature pages to Form 10-K and the applicable exhibits. The Original Form 10-K and Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 thereto are otherwise unchanged. This Third Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 thereto. Further, this Third Amendment does not reflect any subsequent events occurring after the filing date of the Original Form 10-K and does not modify or update in any way the disclosures made in the Original Form 10-K or Amendment No. 1 or Amendment No. 2 thereto except as described above.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
PART III
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The following table sets forth certain information as of March 28, 2023 concerning the beneficial ownership of common stock for: (i) each director and director nominee, (ii) each Named Executive Officer listed in the Summary Compensation Table under “Executive Compensation” in Item 11 of the Original Form 10-K, (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group, and (iv) each person (including any “group” as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) known by us to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of our common stock. The address for each of the persons below who are beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock is our corporate address at 215 Depot Court SE #215, Leesburg, VA 20175.
Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and is calculated based on 60,496,062 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of March 28, 2023. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants, preferred stock or other securities convertible into common stock that are exercisable or convertible on or within 60 days of March 28, 2023, are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding the option, warrant, preferred stock, or convertible security but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Under the SEC rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. Unless otherwise indicated, each of the shareholders named in the table below, or his or her family members, has sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares of our common stock.
Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock that they beneficially own.
