<p style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Registrant&#8217;s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the &#8220;Certificate of Incorporation&#8221;) provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#8220;DGCL&#8221;), a director shall not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Consequently, the Registrant&#8217;s directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following: (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders; (ii) any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or (iv) any transaction from which they derived an improper personal benefit.</p>

The Registrant has also entered into separate indemnification agreements with its directors that require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify each of them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service unless it is determined that he or she did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the Registrant&#8217;s best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.</p>

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in the case of an action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in its favor (i) the indemnification provided shall be limited to expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in the defense or settlement of such action or suit, and (ii) no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant unless, and only to the extent that, the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.</p>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#8220;Calculation of Registration Fee&#8221; table in the effective Registration Statement;</p>

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, 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.</p>

(1) Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this registration statement also covers any additional securities that may from time to time be offered or issued in respect of the securities registered by this registration statement as a result of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar transaction.
(2) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act, based upon the average of the high and low prices of the common stock, par value $0.01 (the "Common Stock"), of Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (the "Company") on the New York Stock Exchange on September 8, 2020.
(3) Represents (i) 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance (the "2020 Share Reserve") under the Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"), plus (ii) shares of Common Stock that remained available for issuance under the Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Prior Plan") at the time the 2020 Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders, plus (iii) shares that are subject to awards issued under the Prior Plan that on or after the effective date of the 2020 Plan cease to be subject to such awards due to the forfeiture, expiration or settlement in cash of such awards. The number of shares of Common Stock registered by this registration statement has been determined for purposes of calculating the amount of the registration fee and reflects the maximum number of shares underlying awards issued pursuant to the Prior Plan that could be added to the 2020 Share Reserve and issued under the 2020 Plan, subject to adjustment as set forth in the 2020 Plan. However, the actual number of shares to be issued under the 2020 Plan may be significantly less than the reported amount depending on, among other variables, the actual number of recycled Prior Plan shares.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
At the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (the "Registrant") held on June 11, 2020, the Registrant's stockholders approved and adopted the Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"), which authorizes the issuance of (i) 1,000,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), plus (ii) shares of Common Stock that remained available for issuance under the Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Prior Plan") at the time the 2020 Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders, plus (iii) shares that are subject to awards issued under the Prior Plan that on or after the effective date of the 2020 Plan cease to be subject to such awards due to the forfeiture, expiration or settlement in cash of such awards. By this Registration Statement, the Registrant hereby registers 2,951,997 shares of Common Stock, which reflects the maximum shares of Common Stock underlying awards issued pursuant to the Prior Plan that could be issued under the 2020 Plan, subject to adjustment as set forth in the 2020 Plan. The actual number of shares to be issued under the 2020 Plan may be significantly less than the maximum amount depending on, among other variables, the actual number of recycled Prior Plan shares.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Registrant's Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), a director shall not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Consequently, the Registrant's directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following: (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders; (ii) any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or (iv) any transaction from which they derived an improper personal benefit.
In addition, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") provide that the Registrant will, to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the Registrant's request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, or as the Registrant's representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other entity (an "indemnitee"), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity. The Registrant has also entered into separate indemnification agreements with its directors that require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify each of them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service unless it is determined that he or she did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the Registrant's best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
The indemnification provided shall be from and against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, but, consistent with DGCL, shall only be provided if the indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant and, with respect to any criminal action, suit or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in the case of an action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in its favor (i) the indemnification provided shall be limited to expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in the defense or settlement of such action or suit, and (ii) no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant unless, and only to the extent that, the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
The Registrant's Bylaws provide that expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any officer or director in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be paid by the Registrant upon delivery to it of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant; provided that the Registrant is not obligated to advance expenses if a determination is made that such officer or director acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant.
The Registrant currently has a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy that insures such persons against the costs of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances. The Registrant believes that these indemnification and liability provisions are essential to attracting and retaining qualified persons as officers and 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 the Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 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) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission 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.
(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 herein, 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 Commission 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, 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.
