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

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>

On March 29, 2006,
Cosi, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "

4-for-1 reverse stock effected May 8, 2013) of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issuable under the
Cosi, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "
Original Omnibus Plan
") pursuant to a Registration Statement
on Form S-8 (File No. 333-132806).  On February 25, 2013, the Company registered an additional 375,000 shares (after

value $0.01 per share, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-186850).
On August 26, 2014,
the Amended and Restated Cosi, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan replaced the Original Omnibus Plan (the "
Amended
and Restated Omnibus Plan
"), and shares remaining available for issuance under the Original Omnibus Plan remain available
for issuance under the Amended and Restated Omnibus Plan. No further grants will be made under the Original Omnibus Plan.
We have prepared this
Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "
Securities
Act
"), to register future issuances of up to an additional 1,500,000 shares of restricted common stock, par value $0.01

of Part I of Form S-3. This reoffer prospectus may be used by certain employees of the Company to offer and sell or otherwise dispose
of up to an aggregate of 874,164 shares of Common Stock received in 2014 as a material inducement to enter into employment with
the Company.

874,164 Shares
of Common Stock
Certain of our employees,
all of whom are named in this reoffer prospectus (the "
Selling Stockholders
"), may offer and sell or otherwise
dispose of from time to time, for their own accounts, up to 874,164 shares of our Common Stock (the "
Shares

that they acquired in connection with grants of restricted stock as a material inducement to enter into employment with the Company
in 2014. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares.
The
Selling Stockholders may offer and sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares in varying amounts through public or private transactions
at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated prices. Sales may be made
through brokers or to dealers, who are expected to receive customary commissions or discounts.

Selling
Stockholders who are our "affiliates" or who are selling "restricted securities" may not sell an amount
of shares pursuant to this reoffer prospectus which exceeds in any three month period the amount specified in Rule 144(e) under
the Securities Act.
The Selling Stockholders
and participating brokers and dealers may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, in
which event any profit on the sale of Shares by those Selling Stockholders and any commissions or discounts received by those brokers
or dealers may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. We will bear all expenses incurred in connection
with this offering, other than discounts, concessions and commissions which are to be borne by the Selling Stockholders.
Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq
Capital Market ("
NASDAQ
") under the symbol "COSI." On June 26, 2015, the closing price of our Common
Stock on NASDAQ was $2.22 per share.

incorporated by reference in this prospectus in its entirety, before you decide whether or not to make an investment in the

TABLE OF CONTENTS
THE COMPANY
We
are a company that owns, operates and franchises fast casual (or premium convenience) restaurants which sell high-quality, made-to-order
hot and cold sandwiches on its signature crackly-crust flatbread, freshly-tossed salads, fresh soups, flatbread pizzas, Così
®
bagels, breakfast wraps, oatmeal, breakfast parfaits and other breakfast, lunch and dinner items, S'mores and other snacks
and desserts, a variety of coffees, teas and specialty beverages, along with soft drinks and other beverages, and in some locations
alcoholic beverages. Our restaurants are located in a wide range of markets and trade areas, including business districts and residential
communities in both urban and suburban locations. We believe that we have created significant brand equity in our markets and that
we have demonstrated the appeal of our concept to a wide variety of customers.
We are a Delaware corporation
organized in 1998. Our principal executive offices are located at 294 Washington Street, Suite 50, Boston, Massachusetts 02108,
and our telephone number is (857) 415-5000.
RISK FACTORS
An investment
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the risks set forth
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2014, including, without limitation, the risks related
to our growth strategy, risks related to our business and risks related to the food service industry, together with the other information
included in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before making a decision to invest in our common stock. If any of
these risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer. In that case, the market
price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to the Offering
The market price of our common stock
may fluctuate significantly, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
The market price of
our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control. These
factors include, among other things, actual or anticipated variations in our costs of doing business, operating results and cash
flow, the nature and content of our earnings releases and our competitors' earnings releases, customers, competitors or markets,
changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, business conditions in our markets and the general state of the securities
markets and the market for similar stocks, changes in capital markets that affect the perceived availability of capital to companies
in our industry, governmental legislation or regulation, as well as general economic and market conditions, such as continued downturns
in our economy and recessions.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Sales, or the availability for sale,
of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely affect the value of our common stock.
No prediction can be
made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of our common stock, or the availability of our common stock for future sales,
will have on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market and the
availability of shares for future sales could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock. This in turn could
impair our future ability to raise capital through an offering of our equity securities.
1
TABLE OF CONTENTS
There may be future sales or other
dilution of our equity, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
We are not restricted
from issuing additional shares of common stock, including any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that
represent the right to receive, shares of common stock. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales
of our common stock made after this offering or the perception that such sales could occur.
As described in our
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("
SEC
"), recently we issued and sold shares of our common
stock to investors in a private placement that closed on April 10, 2015, and two other private placements that closed in August
2014, as well as warrants issued in connection with note purchase transactions completed in May 2014 and April 2014. We also issued
shares of our common stock as consideration in the Hearthstone Merger completed on April 1, 2015. In addition, we completed a rights
offering in December 2014, and have completed rights offerings in the past, pursuant to which we have issued shares of our common
stock. We may issue and sell additional shares of our common stock in private placements or registered offerings in the future.
We also may conduct additional rights offerings in the future pursuant to which we may issue shares of our common stock.
Provisions in our certificate of
incorporation, our bylaws, and Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, discourage a takeover,
and adversely affect existing stockholders.
Our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws, and the Delaware General Corporation Law contain provisions that
may have the effect of making more difficult, delaying, or deterring attempts by others to obtain control of our company, even
when these attempts may be in the best interests of stockholders. These include provisions for maintaining a classified board of
directors and limiting the stockholders' powers to remove directors or take action by written consent instead of at a stockholders'
meeting. Our certificate of incorporation also authorizes our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, to issue one or
more series of preferred stock, which could have voting and conversion rights that adversely affect or dilute the voting power
of the holders of our common stock. Delaware law also imposes conditions on certain business combination transactions with "interested
stockholders."
These provisions and
others that could be adopted in the future could deter unsolicited takeovers or delay or prevent changes in our control or management,
including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market prices.
These provisions may also limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.
Risks Related to the Hearthstone Merger
We may be unable to successfully
integrate Hearthstone Associates and Hearthstone Partners into our business or realize any synergies that we anticipate.
Achieving the anticipated
benefits of the combination (the "
Hearthstone Merger
") with Hearthstone Associates, LLC, and Hearthstone Partners,
LLC (collectively, the "
Hearthstone Entities
"), will depend in part upon whether the companies integrate their
businesses in an effective and efficient manner. Our ability to integrate the Hearthstone Entities into our business and realize
the synergies that we anticipate is subject to a number of uncertainties, many of which are related to conditions beyond our control,
such as general negative economic trends and competition. The integration of any business may be complex and time-consuming. The
difficulties that could be encountered include the following:
•
integrating personnel, operations and systems, while maintaining focus on promoting existing and newly acquired restaurants;
•
distraction of management and employees from operations;
•
retaining existing customers and attracting new customers;
•
maintaining business relationships; and
•
inefficiencies associated with the integration of the operations of the combined company.
2
TABLE OF CONTENTS
An inability to realize
the full extent of any anticipated benefits of the Hearthstone Merger, including anticipated synergies, as well as any delays encountered
in the integration process and realizing such benefits, could have an adverse effect upon the revenues, level of expenses and operating
results of our company, which may adversely affect the value of our common stock.
We will have to fulfill the debt
obligations of the Hearthstone Entities and R.J. Dourney. Our failure to meet our debt service obligations could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As previously disclosed
in our filings with the SEC, we incurred a substantial amount of indebtedness in connection with completing the Hearthstone Merger
(the "
Hearthstone Indebtedness
") and, as a result, the Hearthstone Merger increased our outstanding indebtedness.
The aggregate of the Hearthstone Indebtedness outstanding as of April 1, 2015, upon completion of the Hearthstone Merger, was approximately
$10.8 million, of which approximately $5.6 million was paid shortly following the closing the Hearthstone Merger. Our increased
indebtedness following completion of the Hearthstone Merger could adversely affect our operations and liquidity. Our level of indebtedness
could, among other things:
•
make it more difficult for us to pay or refinance our debts as they become due during adverse economic and industry conditions because we may not have sufficient cash flows to make our scheduled debt payments;
•
cause us to use a larger portion of our cash flow to fund interest and principal payments, reducing the availability of cash to fund our working capital, capital expenditures, research and development and other business activities;
•
cause us to be less able to take advantage of significant business opportunities, such as acquisition opportunities, and to react to changes in market or industry conditions;
•
cause us to be more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
•
decrease our profitability and/or cash flow;
•
cause us to be disadvantaged compared to our competitors with less leverage; and
•
limit our ability to borrow additional monies in the future to fund our working capital, capital expenditures, research and development and other general corporate purposes.
In addition, the terms
of the Hearthstone Indebtedness may restrict certain actions by us and our subsidiaries, including financial, affirmative and negative
covenants, including limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens, and merge, amalgamate and consolidate with
other companies.
A portion of the Hearthstone
Indebtedness that we assumed will bear interest at variable rates that are linked to changing market interest rates. As a result,
an increase in market interest rates would increase our interest exposure and our debt service obligations.
All of our debt obligations, and
any indebtedness incurred in connection with the Hearthstone Merger, will have priority over our common stock with respect to payment
in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company.
In
any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, our common stock would rank below all debt claims against us, including
claims in connection with the indebtedness under the Senior Secured Promissory Note issued by the Company to Milfam II L.P. in
April 2014 and the Senior Secured Promissory Notes issued by the Company to AB Opportunity Fund LLC and AB Value Partners, L. P.
in May 2014, and the Hearthstone Indebtedness acquired in the Hearthstone Merger. As a result, holders of our common stock will
not be entitled to receive any payment or other distribution of assets upon the liquidation or dissolution until after our obligations
to our debt holders and holders of equity securities that rank senior to our common stock have been satisfied.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
The issuance of shares of our common
stock in connection with the Hearthstone Merger resulted in the dilution of our equity.
Upon completion of
the Hearthstone Merger on April 1, 2015, we issued 1,790,993 shares of common stock as consideration for the Hearthstone Merger,
which diluted the equity interests of the holders of our common stock.
We may be subject to liabilities
of the Hearthstone Entities that are unknown to us, which may have a material adverse effect on our profitability, financial condition
and results of operations and which may result in a decline in the market value of our common stock.
We may be subject to
liabilities of the Hearthstone Entities unknown us, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations and the market value of our common stock after the consummation of the Hearthstone Merger.
We may be unable to retain key employees
of Hearthstone Partners or prevent them from competing with us.
Hearthstone Partners
has been dependent on certain key employees for its economic performance, and none of these key employees are subject to employment
agreements with us at this time. As a result, there can be no assurance that these key employees will continue to be employed with
us. In addition, these key employees are not prohibited from competing with us if they are not employed by us.
Certain of the benefits we expect
from completion of the Hearthstone Merger, including increased revenues and EBITDA, are based on projections and assumptions, which
are uncertain and subject to change.
Certain of the benefits
we expect from the Hearthstone Merger, including increased revenue and EBITDA in 2015, are based on projections and assumptions
that are uncertain and subject to change. These projections and assumptions are based on preliminary information, which may prove
to be inaccurate. There can be no assurance that we will realize the increased revenues and EBITDA or any other benefits we anticipate
following completion of the Hearthstone Merger. The market price of our common stock may decline if the estimates are not realized
or we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the Hearthstone Merger as rapidly or to the extent anticipated.
Hearthstone's business and
financial performance could be negatively impacted by many factors, which could in turn adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operation.
Hearthstone's
business and the restaurants operated by the Hearthstone Entities may be adversely affected by several factors, including, for
example, competition in the restaurant market, seasonality associated with the restaurant business, and general economic uncertainty
or a decrease in consumer confidence. In addition, new restaurants opened by the Hearthstone Entities prior to completion of the
Hearthstone Merger may not generate the level of sales that is projected. If these or any other factors were to affect the Hearthstone
Entities and their restaurants following the Hearthstone Merger, we could suffer a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Before you invest in
our securities, you should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this prospectus
under the heading "Risk Factors," and in any documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. Any forward-looking statement made by us
in this prospectus speaks only as of the date on which we make it. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ
will emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to update or revise

by law. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. You are advised

estimate the number of Shares that will be sold or that will be held by a Selling Stockholder after completion of this offering.

and any dealer acting in connection with the offering or any broker executing a sell order on behalf of a Selling Stockholder may
be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, in which event any profit on the sale of shares
by a Selling Stockholder and any commissions or discounts received by any such broker or dealer may be deemed to be underwriting
compensation under the Securities Act. In addition, any such broker or dealer may be required to deliver a copy of this prospectus
to any person who purchases any of the shares from or through such broker or dealer.

during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) 	to include
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) 	to reflect in the prospectus
any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value
of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation
of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
TABLE OF CONTENTS
(iii) 	to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any
material change to such information in this 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 periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) 	That, for the
purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time will 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) 	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 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the provisions referred to in this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, 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.
