Explanatory
Note
This
Post-Effective Amendment No. 5, or this Post-Effective Amendment, to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-262838), or
the Registration Statement, is being filed pursuant to our undertaking in the Registration Statement to update and supplement information

Accordingly, effective after the closing of trading on December 14, 2022 (the 90th calendar day immediately following the issuance date
of the Warrants), the Warrants were adjusted pursuant to their terms, including, but not limited to, to adjust the exercise price of
the Warrants to $2.00, or the Exercise Price Adjustment.
The
information included in this filing updates the Registration Statement and the prospectus contained therein, or the Prospectus. No additional
securities are being registered under this Post-Effective Amendment. All applicable registration fees were paid at the time of the original
filing of the Registration Statement.

Our Company
We
are a growth company developing a non-invasive neural input interface in the form of a wearable wristband for controlling digital devices
using subtle finger gestures and hand movements. Since our technology was introduced to the market in 2014, we have been working with
both B2B and B2C customers as part of our push-pull strategy. We are now in the transition phase from research and development to commercialization
of our technology into B2B products. At the same time, starting in December 2023, we have commenced shipment of the “Mudra Band”,
our first B2C consumer product, and aftermarket accessory band for Apple Watch that enables gesture control across Apple ecosystem devices
such as iPhone, Mac computer, Apple TV, and iPad, inter alia. In September 2024 we launched the Mudra Link, a universal gesture control
wearable wristband. The Mudra Link is open for pre-orders and is expected to ship in the first quarter of 2025.
Our company’s vision is to create a world in which the user’s
hand becomes a universal input device for touchless interacting with technology. We believe that our technology is setting the standard
input interface for Extended Reality and the Metaverse. We intend to transform interaction and control of digital devices to be as natural
and intuitive as real-life experiences. We imagine a future in which humans can share skills, thoughts, emotions, and movements with
each other and with computers, using wearable interfaces and devices. We believe that neural-based interfaces will become as ubiquitous
to interact with wearable computing and digital devices in the near future as the touchscreen is a universal input method for smartphones.
Combining
our own proprietary sensors and AI algorithms into a stylish wristband, our Mudra platform enables users to control digital devices through
subtle finger movements and hand gestures, without physical touch or contact. These digital devices include consumer electronics, smart
watches, smartphones, augmented reality, or AR, glasses, virtual reality, or VR, headsets, televisions, personal computers and laptop
computers, drones, robots, etc.
Mudra Development
Kit, originally named Mudra Inspire, our B2B development kit product, started selling to B2B customers in 2018 as the first point of
business engagement and contributed to our early-stage revenues. Our early-stage revenues are composed of sales of our Mudra Inspire
and from pilot transactions with several B2B customers. Towards the end of 2023, we commenced the shipments of the “Mudra Band”,
our first B2C consumer product. In September 2024 we launched the Mudra Link, a universal gesture control wearable wristband. The Mudra
Link is open for pre-orders and is expected to ship in the first quarter of 2025.. In 2023 and 2022, we had revenues of $82 thousand
and $45 thousand, respectively, and comprehensive and net loss of $7.8 million and $6.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and
June 30, 2023, we had revenues of $394 thousand and $12 thousand, respectively, and comprehensive and net loss of $4.2 million and $3.9
million, respectively
Over 100 companies have purchased our Mudra
Inspire development kit, 30 of which are multinational technology companies. These companies are exploring various input and control
use-cases for their products, ranging over multiple countries and industry sectors, including consumer electronics manufacturers, consumer
electronics brands, electronic components manufacturers, IT services and software development companies, industrial companies, and utility
providers. Our objective with these companies is to commercialize the Mudra technology by licensing it for integration in the hardware
and software of these companies’ products and services. We estimate that there will be a three-to-five-year period from the time
we are first introduced to a customer to signing a licensing agreement. As of September 20, 2024, we have not signed a license agreement
with any of these companies.
In
addition to consumer electronics, we have recently expanded our brand to include neurotech and brain-computer interface sensors, with
additional verticals that include Industry 4.0 – a new phase in the Industrial Revolution that focuses on interconnectivity, automation,
machine learning, and real-time data, digital health, sport analytics, and more.
The
core of our platform is Mudra, which means “gesture” in Sanskrit. Mudra – our surface nerve conductance, or SNC,
technology and wristband tracks neural signals on the user’s wrist skin surface, which our algorithms decipher to predict as
gestures made by finger and hand movements. The interface binds each gesture with a specific digital function, allowing users to
input commands without physical touch or contact. Mudra gestures are natural to perform, and gestures can be tailored per a
user’s intent, desired function, and the controlled digital device. Mudra can detect multiple gesture types, including hand
movements, finger movements, and fingertip pressure gradations. In addition to the control use-case, our Mudra technology and SNC
sensor can be utilized in multiple monitoring use-cases where we can monitor neural and hand movements for digital health purposes,
sport analytics performance, and Industry 4.0 solutions.
Our Growth
Strategy
We
intend to achieve a leading brand position for neural input technology, and to expand our operations to digital and wearable computers.
Key elements of our growth strategy include:
| ● | Offer
a broad range of platform devices. We believe everyone’s needs are unique, so we
will offer our users a wide range of connected devices to interact and control in multiple
styles, form factors, and price points, to allow people to find the devices that fit their
lifestyles and goals. We believe that we can leverage the growing public acceptance and awareness
of wearable neural technologies and the rising adoption of wearable devices to market multiple
Mudra-based consumer products. |
| ● | Introduce
new features, use-cases, software applications, and services. We plan to continue introducing
new features and services to increase user engagement and revenue. For example, we are building
a diverse user-gesture data bank, which will enable us to develop additional new gestures.
It is our belief that the gestures should be natural for the user and tailored based on the
use-case and controlled device, instead of a “one size fits all” approach which
forces the user to learn new interactions. In addition to the control use-case, our Mudra
technology and SNC sensor can be utilized in multiple monitoring use-cases where we can monitor
neural and hand movements for digital health purposes, sport analytics performance, and Industry
solutions. The platform serves multiple corporations, businesses and individuals in the form
of customized mobile and computer applications with a broad range of business models that
include hardware sales, licensing, and Software-as-a-Service, or SaaS model. |
| ● | Integrate
our Mudra technology into existing devices. We intend to leverage our strong relationships
with multiple consumer electronics companies and brands to sign software and hardware licenses
and royalty contracts to make ourselves a fundamental input component for all digital devices
and platforms. We also believe our superior software and hardware integration ability to
work with companies will enable us to sign agreements with leading global and smaller companies
for consumer devices and industry use-cases. |
| ● | Further
penetrate the additional markets. We intend to increase our focus on building relationships
with corporations in Industry 4.0, wellness and digital health, and sports analytics. Our
main advantage is the ability to continuously and securely track the user’s engagement
over lengthened periods of times and supply meaningful insights for employee performance
and safety and the user’s physiology. |
| ● | Expand
brand awareness, global distribution and drive sales of our products and services. We
intend to increase our marketing efforts to further expand global awareness of our brand
and drive greater sales of our products and services. The international markets represent
a significant growth opportunity for us, and we intend to expand sales of our products and
services globally through select retailers and strategic partnerships. |
| ● | Data
monetization. Once we have a sufficiently large database, we intend to monetize data
derived from a combination of gestures that authenticates a user, identification of patterns
of daily behavior, and monitoring of metrics and identification. This will expand our offerings
related to data and user behavior, which can open multiple new markets and opportunities. |
Recent Developments
Standby Equity Purchase Agreement with YA
On June 6, 2024, we entered
into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, or the SEPA, with YA II PN, LTD., a Cayman Islands exempt limited partnership, or YA. Pursuant
to the SEPA, we will be able to sell up to $10.0 million, or the Commitment Amount, of our Ordinary Shares, at our sole option, any time
during the three-year period following the execution date of the SEPA. Of the Commitment Amount, to date we have sold 3,715,602 Ordinary
Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.7 million. Pursuant to the terms of the SEPA, any Ordinary Shares sold to YA will be priced
at 97% of the market price, which is defined as the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares during the three
consecutive trading days commencing on the trading day immediately following our delivery of an advance notice to YA. Any sale of Ordinary
Shares pursuant to the SEPA is subject to certain limitations, including that YA is not permitted to purchase any Ordinary Shares that
would result in it owning more than 4.99% of our Ordinary Shares.
Subject to certain conditions
precedent as described in the SEPA, we may request pre-paid advances in an amount up to $3.0 million, each a Pre-Paid Advance. Each Pre-Paid
Advance will be evidenced by a Promissory Note. Each Promissory Note will fully mature 12-months following its issuance and shall accrue
interest on the outstanding principal balance thereon at a rate of 6% per annum, increasing to 18% per annum upon an Event of Default
(as defined in the Promissory Note). Beginning 60 days after the issuance of a Promissory Note, we shall pay to YA a monthly installment
payment of 10% of the original principal amount of the Promissory Note and accrued interest, payable in cash or by submitting an Advance
Notice, where YA will offset the amount due to be paid to us under such notice against an equal amount of the monthly installment amount,
at our option. If we elect to pay in cash, the installment amount shall also include a payment premium in the amount of 5% of the principal
amount of the installment payment. The Promissory Note contains our customary representations and warranties and Events of Default. Each
Promissory Note will be convertible at a conversion price equal to $0.70 per Ordinary Share and contains customary adjustments in the
event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Ordinary Shares and the conversion price. Each
Promissory Note will also contain anti-dilution provisions that provide that if we issue Ordinary Shares, or securities convertible into
or exercisable or exchange for, shares of Ordinary Shares at a price per share that is less than the conversion price then in effect,
then the conversion price of the Promissory Note upon each such issuance will be adjusted to the price equal to the consideration per
share paid for such Ordinary Share or other securities. As of the date of this prospectus, we have requested and received a Pre-Paid Advance
in the amount of $2.0 million on June 6, 2024, which was evidenced by a Promissory Note issued on the same date. As of the date of this
prospectus, we have repaid $400 thousand of the principal amount of such Promissory Note.
We are not obligated to utilize
any of the $10.0 million available under the SEPA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties. The total amount of funds
that ultimately can be raised under the SEPA over the three-year term will depend on the market price for the Ordinary Shares and the
number of Ordinary Shares actually sold. The SEPA does not impose any restrictions on our operating activities. During the term of the
SEPA, YA, and its affiliates, are prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to the Ordinary Shares.
In addition, we also agreed
to pay YA the Commitment Fee, equal to $100,000, or 1.0% of the aggregate amount available to be sold under the SEPA, as consideration
for its irrevocable commitment to purchase our Ordinary Shares under the SEPA. The Commitment Fee will be issued in two tranches, with
50% of the Commitment Fee due on the date that is 90 days from the date of the SEPA in an amount of Ordinary Shares equal to 50% of the
Commitment Fee divided by the average of the daily VWAP (as defined in the SEPA) of our Ordinary Shares during the three trading days
immediately prior to such first payment date and the remainder of the Commitment Fee due 180 days from the date of the SEPA in an amount
of Ordinary Shares equal to 50% of the Commitment Fee divided by the average of the daily VWAP (as defined in the SEPA) of our Ordinary
Shares during the three trading days immediately prior to such second payment date. On September 4, 2024, we and YA agreed to postpone
the issuance of the first tranche of the Commitment Fee and to issue the full 1.0% of the Commitment Fee to YA on the date that is 180
days from the date of the SEPA. The Commitment Fee will be paid by the issuance to YA of such number of Ordinary Shares that is equal
to the balance of the Commitment Fee divided by the average of the daily VWAP of the Ordinary Shares during the three trading days immediately
prior to the payment date. We have also agreed to pay to YA a structuring fee in the amount of $10,000.

Implications
of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We
are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, we are eligible to, and intend to, take advantage of certain exemptions from various
reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” such as not being required
to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
We could remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (a) the last day of the
first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion, (b) the date that we become a “large accelerated
filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which would occur
if the market value of our Ordinary Shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our
most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (c) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible
debt during the preceding three-year period.
Implications
of Being a Foreign Private Issuer
We
are subject to the information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that are applicable to “foreign private issuers,”
and under those requirements we file reports with the SEC. As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to the same requirements that
are imposed upon U.S. domestic issuers by the SEC. Under the Exchange Act, we are subject to reporting obligations that, in certain respects,
are less detailed and less frequent than those of U.S. domestic reporting companies. For example, we are not required to issue quarterly
reports, proxy statements that comply with the requirements applicable to U.S. domestic reporting companies, or individual executive
compensation information that is as detailed as that required of U.S. domestic reporting companies. We also have four months after the
end of each fiscal year to file our annual report with the SEC and are not required to file current reports as frequently or promptly
as U.S. domestic reporting companies. Our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the requirements to report transactions
in our equity securities and from the short-swing profit liability provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As a foreign
private issuer, we are not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In addition,
as a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise
required under the Nasdaq Stock Market, or Nasdaq, rules for domestic U.S. issuers. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the
Ownership of Our Ordinary Shares.” These exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections
available to you in comparison to those applicable to a U.S. domestic reporting company. We intend to take advantage of the exemptions
available to us as a foreign private issuer during and after the period we qualify as an “emerging growth company.”

Description of Warrants |
|
Each Warrant has an exercise price of $4.00 per Ordinary
Share, became exercisable immediately upon issuance and will expire on September 15, 2027. Subject to certain exemptions outlined
in the Warrant, for a period until two years from the date of issuance of the Warrant, if the Company shall sell, enter into an agreement
to sell and subsequently sells, or grant any option to purchase, or sell, enter into an agreement to sell and subsequently sells,
or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or
other disposition that subsequently closes) any Ordinary Shares or convertible security, at an effective price per share less than
the exercise price of the Warrant then in effect, or a Dilutive Issuance, the exercise price of the Warrant shall be reduced to equal
the effective price per share in such Dilutive Issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the exercise price of the
Warrant be reduced to an exercise price lower than 50% of the exercise price of the Warrants on the issuance date, or the Initial
Exercise Price. On the date that is 90 calendar days immediately following the initial issuance date of the Warrants, the exercise
price of the Warrants will adjust to be equal to the Reset Price, provided that such value is less than the exercise price in effect
on that date. The Reset Price is equal to the greater of (a) 50% of the Initial Exercise Price of the Warrants on the issuance date
or (b) 100% of the lowest volume weighted average price per Ordinary Share occurring on any day between the initial exercise date
of the Warrants and 90 calendar days following the issuance date of the Warrants. The lowest Reset Price is $2.00, which is 50% of
the Initial Exercise Price. To better understand the terms of the Warrants, you should carefully read the “Description of Share
Capital” section of this prospectus. You should also read the form of Warrant, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration
statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The exercise price adjustments were offered to Warrant holders based on market conditions.
On September 20, 2022, the Company’s volume weighted average stock price was less than the exercise floor of $2.00 for the

RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks set forth below and the risks set
forth under the caption “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors” in our 2023 Annual Report, which is incorporated
by reference in this prospectus, together with all of the other information appearing in this prospectus or incorporated by reference
into this prospectus before making an investment in our securities. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could
be materially and adversely affected if any of these risks occurs and, as a result, the market price of our securities could decline
and you could lose all or part of your investment. This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results could differ materially and adversely
from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors.
Risks Related to Operations in Israel
We conduct our operations
in Israel. Conditions in Israel, including conditions affected by the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations and Israel’s
war against them, may affect our operations.
Our offices are located in
Yokne’am Illit, Israel, thus, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel may directly affect our business. On October
7, 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian
and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s
border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared
war against Hamas and the Israeli military began to call-up reservists for active duty. At the same time, and because of the declaration
of war against Hamas, the clash between Israel and Hezbollah along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon and southern border with
the Houthi movement in Yemen have escalated and there is a possibility that either or both will turn into a greater regional conflict
in the future. In addition, Iran recently launched a direct attack on Israel involving hundreds of drones and missiles, and has threatened
to continue to attack Israel and is widely believed to be developing nuclear weapons. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence
among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and various rebel militia
groups in Syria.
As
of today, these events have had no material impact on the Company’s operations. According to the recent guidelines of the Israeli
government, the Company’s offices are open and functioning as usual. However, if the war escalates and expands to the Northern
border with Lebanon, Iran or Yemen, the Israeli government potentially will impose additional restrictions on movement and travel, and
our management and employees’ ability to effectively perform their daily tasks might be temporarily disrupted, which may result
in delays in some of our projects.
The
Company currently has the supply of materials needed for its regular operations. While there may be some possible delays in supply, those
are currently not anticipated to be material to the Company’s operations. However, if the war continues for a significant amount
of time, this situation may change.
Any
hostilities involving Israel, terrorist activities, political instability or violence in the region, or the interruption or curtailment
of trade or transport among Israel and its trading partners could make it more difficult for us to raise capital, if needed in the future,
and adversely affect our operations and results of operations and the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Moreover, we cannot predict
how this war will ultimately affect Israel’s economy in general, which may involve a downgrade in Israel’s credit rating
by rating agencies (such as the recent downgrade by Moody’s of its credit rating of Israel from A1 to A2, as well as the downgrade
of its outlook rating from “stable” to “negative” and the S&P Global lowered its long-term credit rating
from AA- to A+, as well as a downgrade of its short-term credit ratings from A-1+ to A-1, with an outlook on the long-term ratings “negative”,
and recently Fitch Ratings Inc. lowered Israel’s credit rating from A+ to A, with an outlook rating of “negative”).
Our
commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the security situation in the Middle
East. Although the Israeli government is currently committed to covering the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by
terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or, if maintained, will be sufficient
to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
Further,
many Israeli citizens are obligated to perform several days, and in some cases, more, of annual military reserve duty each year until
they reach the age of 40 (or older for certain reservists) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In
response to the series of attacks on civilian and military targets in October 2023, there have been significant call-ups of military
reservists. As of September 20, 2024, none of the Company’s employees is in military reserve service. However, if the number of
reservists in our Company increases and becomes significant, our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups.
Any
armed conflicts, terrorist activities or political instability in the region could adversely affect business conditions, could harm our
results of operations and the market price of our Ordinary Shares, and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital. Parties
with whom we do business may sometimes decline to travel to Israel during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us to make
alternative arrangements when necessary, in order to meet our business partners face to face.
The
intensity and duration of Israel’s current war against Hamas is difficult to predict at this stage, as are such war’s economic
implications on the Company’s business and operations and on Israel’s economy in general. However, if the war extends for
a long period of time or expands to other fronts, such as Lebanon, Syria and the West Bank, our operations may be harmed.
It
is currently not possible to predict the duration or severity of the ongoing conflict or its effects on our business, operations and
financial condition. The ongoing conflict is rapidly evolving and developing, and could disrupt our business and operations, and adversely
affect our ability to raise additional funds or sell our securities, among other impacts.

We
currently expect to use the net proceeds from the IPO and this offering for the following purposes:
| ● | approximately
$1.95 million to manufacture the Mudra Band for Apple Watch product, which includes
the purchase of components, manufacturing of components, and assembly of the product; |
| ● | approximately

Changing
circumstances may cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate. The amounts and timing of our actual
expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including the progress of our global marketing and sales efforts, the development
of our products and the overall economic environment. Therefore, our management will retain broad discretion over the use of the proceeds
from the IPO and this offering. We may ultimately use the proceeds for different purposes than what we currently intend. Pending any
ultimate use of any portion of the proceeds from the IPO and this offering, if the anticipated proceeds will not be sufficient to fund
all the proposed purposes, our management will determine the order of priority for using the proceeds, as well as the amount and sources
of other funds needed.
Pending
our use of the net proceeds from the IPO and this offering, we may invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments,
including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DILUTION
If
you invest in our securities, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the price per Ordinary
Share you will pay upon exercise of the Warrants and the as adjusted net tangible book value per Ordinary Share after exercise of all
the Warrants.
On June 30, 2024 we had a net tangible book
value of $1.7 million corresponding to a net tangible book value of $0.08 per Ordinary Share. Net tangible book value per Ordinary Share
represents the amount of our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by 20,887,428, the total number of Ordinary Shares
issued and outstanding on June 30, 2024.
After giving effect to
the issuance of 3,215,602 Ordinary Share under the SEPA, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.4 million, our pro forma net tangible book
value estimated at June 30, 2024 would have been approximately $3.1 million, representing $0.13 per Ordinary Share.
After
giving effect to the issuance of up to 7,860,861 Ordinary Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrants, for aggregate net proceeds
of $15.7 million (assuming an exercise price of $2.00 per Ordinary Share following the Exercise Price Adjustment), and the exercise of
the Underwriter’s Warrants, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value estimated at June 30, 2024 would have been approximately
$19.8 million, representing $0.62 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in historical net tangible book value of
$0.49 per Ordinary Share to existing shareholders and an immediate average dilution in net tangible book value of $1.46 per Ordinary
Share to purchasers of Ordinary Shares in this offering. Dilution for this purpose represents the difference between the average
price per Ordinary Share paid by these purchasers and net tangible book value per Ordinary Share immediately after the completion of
this offering.

following table illustrates this dilution on a per Ordinary Share basis to investors in this offering:

our articles of association to be exercised or taken by our shareholders.
Rights
Attached to Shares
Our
Ordinary Shares shall confer upon the holders thereof:
|
● |
equal right to attend and to vote at all of our general
meetings, whether regular or special, with each Ordinary Share entitling the holder thereof, which attend the meeting and participate
at the voting, either in person or by a proxy or by a written ballot, to one vote; |

Election
of Directors
Pursuant to our articles of association, our
directors are elected and/or re-elected by the general meeting and, unless appointed for a shorter term, serve in office until the third
annual general meeting after the general meeting in which such director was appointed, in which such later annual general meeting the
directors will be brought for re-election or replacement.
In
each annual general meeting, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors
of that class of directors will be for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election,
such that each year the term of office of only one class of directors will expire, and all other directors whose service term lapsed
shall be deemed to have been re-elected for a term until the next annual general meeting. The director to be deemed and to be re-elected
is the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election. If more than one director served the longest
time, the board of directors will decide which of such directors will be brought for re-election at the relevant general meeting.
Annual
and Special Meetings
Under
the Israeli law, we are required to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year, at such time and place
which shall be determined by our board of directors, that must be no later than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general
meeting. All meetings other than the annual general meeting of shareholders are referred to as special general meetings. Our board of
directors may call special meetings whenever it sees fit and upon the request of: (a) any two of our directors or such number of directors
equal to one quarter of the directors then at office; and/or (b) one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, (i) 5% or more of
our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or (ii) 5% or more of our outstanding voting power, or the Non Exempted
Holding. However, under new exemption applicable as of March 12, 2024, the board of directors of an Israeli company whose shares are
listed outside of Israel, shall convene a special meeting at the request of: (i) one or more shareholders holding at least ten percent
(10%) of the issued and outstanding share capital instead of five (5%) in the past, and at least one percent (1%) of the voting rights
in the company, or (ii) one or more shareholders holding at least ten percent (10%) of the voting rights in the company, unless the applicable
law incorporated in the country in which the Company is listed for trade, establishes a right to demand convening of such a meeting for
those holding less than ten percent (10%) of the voting rights in the company (in which case, the Non Exempted Holding shall apply).
Subject
to the provisions of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote at general
meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the board of directors, which may be between four and sixty days prior
to the date of the meeting. Resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders:

Notices
The
Companies Law require that a notice of any annual or special shareholders meeting be provided at least 21 days prior to the meeting,
and if the agenda of the meeting includes the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or
interested or related parties, approval of the company’s general manager to serve as the chairman of the board of directors or
an approval of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to the meeting.
Quorum
According
to our articles of association and as permitted under the Companies Law, the quorum required for our general meetings consists of at
least two shareholders present in person, by proxy, written ballot or voting by means of electronic voting system, who hold or represent
between them at least 25% of the total outstanding voting rights. If within half an hour of the time set forth for the general meeting
a quorum is not present, the general meeting shall stand adjourned the same day of the following week, at the same hour and in the same
place, or to such other date, time and place as prescribed in the notice to the shareholders and in such adjourned meeting, any number
of shareholders participating in the meeting, shall constitute a quorum.
If
a special general meeting was summoned following the request of a shareholder, and within half an hour a legal quorum shall not have
been formed, the meeting shall be canceled.
Adoption
of Resolutions
Our
articles of association provide that resolutions amending provisions of the articles of association related to the staggered board of
directors and the composition of the board of directors, as well as a resolution to dismiss a director, will require an affirmative vote
of 70% of the voting power represented at a general meeting and voting thereon. Other than that, and unless otherwise required under
the Companies Law and our articles, all resolutions of the Company’s shareholders require a simple majority vote. A shareholder
may vote in a general meeting in person, by proxy, by a written ballot.
Changing
Rights Attached to Shares
Unless
otherwise provided by the terms of the shares and subject to any applicable law, any modification of rights attached to any class of
shares must be adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares of that class present a general meeting of the affected class or by
a written consent of all the shareholders of the affected class.
The
enlargement of an existing class of shares or the issuance of additional shares thereof, shall not be deemed to modify the rights attached
to the previously issued shares of such class or of any other class, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares.
Limitations
on the Right to Own Securities in Our Company
There
are no limitations on the right to own our securities in our articles of association. In certain circumstances the Warrants have restrictions
upon the exercise of such warrants if such exercise would result in the holders thereof owning more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our Ordinary
Shares upon such exercise, as further described below.
Provisions
Restricting Change in Control of Our Company
Our
articles of association provide for a staggered board of directors, which mechanism may delay, defer or prevent a change of control of
the Company’s board of directors. Other than that, there are no specific provisions of our articles of association that would have
an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company or that would operate only with respect to a merger,
acquisition or corporate restructuring involving us. However, as described below, certain provisions of the Companies Law may have such
effect.
The
Companies Law includes provisions that allow a merger transaction and requires that each company that is a party to the merger have the
transaction approved by its board of directors and, unless certain requirements described under the Companies Law are met, a vote of
the majority of shareholders, and, in the case of the target company, also a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes
of the shareholder vote of each party, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if shares representing
a majority of the voting power present at the shareholders meeting and which are not held by the other party to the merger (or by any
person or group of persons acting in concert who holds 25% or more of the voting power or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors
of the other party) vote against the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company’s own controlling shareholder
or if the controlling shareholder has a personal interest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same special majority
approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders. Upon the request of a creditor of either party to
the proposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that as a result
of the merger the surviving company will be unable to satisfy the obligations of any of the parties to the merger, and may further give
instructions to secure the rights of creditors. If the transaction would have been approved by the shareholders of a merging company
but for the separate approval of each class or the exclusion of the votes of certain shareholders as provided above, a court may still
approve the merger upon the petition of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of a company. For such petition to be granted, the
court must find that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the value of the parties to the merger and the consideration
offered to the shareholders. In addition, a merger may not be completed unless at least (1) 50 days have passed from the time that the
requisite proposals for approval of the merger were filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies by each merging company and (2) 30
days have passed since the merger was approved by the shareholders of each merging company.
The
term “Special Majority” hereof will be defined as described in section 275(a)(3) of the Companies Law as:
|
● |
at least a majority of the shares held by shareholders
who are not controlling shareholders and do not have personal interest in the merger (excluding a personal interest that did not
result from the shareholder’s relationship with the controlling shareholder) have voted in favor of the proposal (shares held
by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or |
|
|
|
|
● |
the total number of shares voted against the merger,
does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights of the company. |
The
Companies Law also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, an acquisition of shares in an Israeli public company must be made by
means of a “special” tender offer if as a result of the acquisition (1) the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more
of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already another holder of at least 25% or more of the voting rights in the company
or (2) the purchaser would become a holder of 45% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already a holder of more
than 45% of the voting rights in the company. These requirements do not apply if, in general, the acquisition (1) was made in a private
placement that received shareholders’ approval, subject to certain conditions, (2) was from a holder of 25% or more of the voting
rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (3) was
from a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of more than 45%
of the voting rights in the company. A “special” tender offer must be extended to all shareholders. In general, a “special”
tender offer may be consummated only if (1) at least 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares will be
acquired by the offeror and (2) the offer is accepted by a majority of the offerees who notified the company of their position in connection
with such offer (excluding the offeror, controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or anyone
on their behalf, or any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer). If a special tender offer is accepted,
then the purchaser or any person or entity controlling it or under common control with the purchaser or such controlling person or entity
may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the target
company for a period of one year from the date of the offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an
offer or merger in the initial special tender offer.
If,
as a result of an acquisition of shares, the acquirer will hold more than 90% of an Israeli company’s outstanding shares or of
certain class of shares, the acquisition must be made by means of a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares, or for all of the
outstanding shares of such class, as applicable. In general, if less than 5% of the outstanding shares, or of applicable class, are not
tendered in the tender offer and more than half of the offerees who have no personal interest in the offer tendered their shares, all
the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to it by operation of law. However, a tender offer will also be
accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company
or of the applicable class of shares. Any shareholders that was an offeree in such tender offer, whether such shareholder accepted the
tender offer or not, may request, by petition to an Israeli court, (i) appraisal rights in connection with a full tender offer, and (ii)
that the fair value should be paid as determined by the court, for a period of six months following the acceptance thereof. However,
the acquirer is entitled to stipulate, under certain conditions, that tendering shareholders will forfeit such appraisal rights.
However, under a new exemption applicable as
of March 12, 2024, the aforesaid limitations regarding a tender offer do not apply for an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside
of Israel, provided that if the applicable law as applicable to companies incorporated in the country which the company is listed for
trade, provide a restriction on the acquisition of control of any proportion of the company or that the acquisition of control of any
proportion requires the purchaser to also offer a purchase offer to shareholders from among the public.
Lastly,
Israeli tax law treats some acquisitions, such as stock-for-stock exchanges between an Israeli company and a foreign company, less favorably
than U.S. tax laws. For example, Israeli tax law may, under certain circumstances, subject a shareholder who exchanges his Ordinary Shares
for shares in another corporation to taxation prior to the sale of the shares received in such stock-for-stock swap.
Changes
in Our Capital
The
general meeting may, by a simple majority vote of the shareholders attending the general meeting:
|
● |
increase our registered share capital by the creation
of new shares from the existing class or a new class, as determined by the general meeting; |
|
|
|
|
● |
cancel
any registered share capital which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person;
|
|
|
|
|
● |
consolidate
and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger nominal value than our existing shares;
|
|
|
|
|
● |
subdivide
our existing shares or any of them, our share capital or any of it, into shares of smaller nominal value than is fixed; and
|
|
|
|
|
● |
reduce our share capital and any fund reserved for
capital redemption in any manner, and with and subject to any incident authorized, and consent required, by the Companies Law. |
Exclusive
Forum
Our
articles of association provide that unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district
courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act and that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring
any interest in any security of the Company, shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this exclusive forum provision.
Staggered
Board
Our
articles of association provide for a split of the board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual
general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors
of that class of directors will be for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election,
such that each year the term of office of only one class of directors will expire. The director whom is to be retired and re-elected
shall be the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election or, if more than one director served the
longest time, or if a director who is not to be re-elected agrees to be re-elected, the meeting of the board of directors which sets
the date and agenda for the annual general meeting (acting by a simple majority) will decide which of such directors will be brought
for re-election at the relevant general meeting.
Warrants
The
following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Warrants and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions
of the warrant agent agreement between us and VStock Transfer, LLC, as warrant agent, and the form of Warrant, both of which are filed
as exhibits to the 2023 Annual Report.
Exercisability
The
Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that is five years after their
original issuance. The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to the Company a
duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of the Ordinary Shares underlying the
Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available
funds for the number of Ordinary Shares purchased upon such exercise. If a registration statement registering the issuance of the Ordinary
Shares underlying the Warrants under the Securities Act is not effective or available the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to
exercise the Warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of Ordinary
Shares determined according to the formula set forth in the Warrant. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the exercise
of a Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied
by the exercise price.
Exercise
Limitation
A
holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially
own in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage
ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to
any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days
following notice from the holder to the Company.
Exercise
Price
The
exercise price per whole Ordinary Share purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants $4.00 per share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate
adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar
events affecting our Ordinary Shares and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our shareholders.
Subject to certain exemptions outlined in the Warrant, for a period until two years from the date of issuance of the Warrant, if the
Company shall sell, enter into an agreement to sell and subsequently sells, or grant any option to purchase, or sell, enter into an agreement
to sell and subsequently sells, or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or
any option to purchase or other disposition the subsequently closes) any Ordinary Shares or convertible security, at an effective price
per share less than the exercise price of the Warrant then in effect, the exercise price of the Warrant shall be reduced to equal the
effective price per share in such Dilutive Issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the exercise price of the Warrant
be reduced to an exercise price lower than 50% of the Initial Exercise Price. On the date that is 90 calendar days immediately following
the initial issuance date of the Warrants, the exercise price of the Warrants will adjust to be equal to the Reset Price, provided that
such value is less than the exercise price in effect on that date. The Reset Price is equal to the greater of (a) 50% of the Initial
Exercise Price of the Warrants on the issuance date or (b) 100% of the lowest volume weighted average price per Ordinary Share occurring
on any day between the initial exercise date of the Warrants and 90 calendar days following the issuance date of the Warrants. The lowest
Reset Price is $2.00, which is 50% of the Initial Exercise Price.
On
September 20, 2022, the Company’s volume weighted average stock price was less than the exercise floor of $2.00 for the Warrants.
Accordingly, effective after the closing of trading on December 14, 2022 (the 90th calendar day immediately following the issuance date
of the Warrants), the Warrants were adjusted pursuant to their terms, including, but not limited to, to adjust the exercise price of
the Warrants to $2.00.
Transferability
Subject
to applicable laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without the Company’s consent.
Warrant
Agent
The
Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agent agreement between VStock Transfer, LLC, as warrant agent, and the Company.
The Warrants were initially represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf
of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed
by DTC.
Fundamental
Transactions
In
the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or
reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets,
our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary
Shares, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by the Company’s outstanding
Ordinary Shares, the holders of the Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities,
cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction
without regard to any limitations on exercised contained in the Warrants. The holders of the Warrants may also require the Company
or any successor entity to purchase the Warrants from the holders by paying to the holder an amount in cash (or other types or form of
consideration in special circumstances listed in the Warrant) equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of
the Warrant on the date of the fundamental transaction.
Home
Country Practice
For
so long as any of the Warrants remains outstanding, the Company will elect to follow home country practice in lieu of any rules and regulations
of the trading market that would limit the Company’s ability to effect the provisions of the Warrants, including but not limited
to shareholder approval rules related to the issuance of securities or adjustment of terms of this Warrant for the benefit of warrant
holders.
Rights
as a Shareholder
Except
as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, the holder
of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, including any voting rights,
until the holder exercises the Warrant.
Governing
Law
The
Warrants and the warrant agent agreement are governed by New York law.
Underwriter’s
Warrants
The
following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Underwriter’s Warrant, is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by,
the provisions of the form of Underwriter’s Warrant which was filed as an exhibit to the 2023 Annual Report.
As
part of our IPO on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we issued the Underwriter’s warrant to the underwriter. The Underwriter’s Warrants
are exercisable at $5.31 per Ordinary Share, became exercisable beginning on March 12, 2023 and will expire on September 12, 2027.
The Underwriter’s Warrants have been deemed compensation by FINRA and were therefore subject to a six-month lock-up pursuant
to Rule 5110 of FINRA. Furthermore, such Underwriter’s Warrants shall be exercisable on a cash basis, provided that if
a registration statement registering the ordinary shares underlying the Underwriter’s Warrants is not effective, the Underwriter’s
Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis and have anti-dilution terms that are consistent with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(E) and (F).
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
This
prospectus relates to the issuance of up to 8,048,361 Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of the following warrants, issued by us on September
15, 2022 as part of our IPO: (i) Warrants to purchase up to 7,860,861 Ordinary Shares (including Warrants to purchase up to 1,125,000
Ordinary Shares issued following the partial exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the Underwriter, in connection with the
IPO) , and (ii) Underwriter’s Warrants issued to the Underwriter to purchase up to 187,500 Ordinary Shares. The ongoing offer and
sale by us of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Underwriter’s is being made pursuant to this prospectus.
We
will deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and Underwriter’s Warrants. We will not issue fractional Ordinary Shares.
Each Warrant contains instructions for the exercise of such Warrant. In order to exercise a Warrant, the holder must deliver the information
required by the applicable warrant agreement, along with payment of the exercise price, if the exercise price is being paid in cash,
for the Ordinary Shares to be purchased. We will then deliver our Ordinary Shares in the manner described in the applicable warrant agreement.
Aegis
Capital Corp., or Aegis, acted as the sole book-running manager of the IPO. Under the terms of an underwriting agreement we entered with
Aegis dated September 12, 2022, we granted Aegis an option to purchase from us, at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts
and commissions, up to 562,500 additional Ordinary Shares and/or up to 1,125,000 over-allotment Warrants, which expired on October 27,
2022, to cover over-allotments, if any. On September 13, 2022, the Underwriter partially exercised the over-allotment option with respect
to Warrants to purchase up to 1,125,000 Ordinary Shares.
As
additional compensation to Aegis, we issued to Aegis Underwriter’s Warrants to purchase up to 187,500 Ordinary Shares (5.0% of
the number of Ordinary Shares issued in the IPO), at an exercise price per share equal to $5.31 (125.0% of the IPO price). The Underwriter’s
Warrants and the underlying Ordinary Shares will not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any
hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the Underwriter’s
Warrants by any person for a period of 180 days beginning on the date of commencement of sales of the offering in compliance with FINRA
Rule 5110.
The
Underwriter’s Warrants became exercisable from the date that is six months from the commencement of the sales of the offering,
or March 12, 2023, and will expire four years and six months after such date, or September 12, 2027, in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(A).
Furthermore, such Underwriter’s Warrants shall be exercisable on a cash basis, provided that if a registration statement registering
the ordinary shares underlying the Underwriter’s Warrants is not effective, the Underwriter’s Warrants may be exercised on
a cashless basis and have anti-dilution terms that are consistent with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(E) and (F).
Indemnification
We
have agreed to indemnify Aegis, its affiliates, and each person controlling Aegis against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, assessments,
costs, and other liabilities, as the same are incurred (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), relating to or arising
out of the IPO undertaken in good faith.
Other
Relationships
Aegis
may in the future provide us and our affiliates with such services.
In
connection with our IPO, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Aegis pursuant to which we paid Aegis an aggregate of $1,275,000
in commissions and non-accountable expenses. In addition, we issued Aegis warrants to purchase five percent (5%) of the Ordinary Shares
issued in the IPO at an exercise price per share equal to 125% of the public offering price.

LEGAL
MATTERS
Certain
legal matters concerning the legality of the issuance of the securities offered by this prospectus and other legal matters concerning
this offering were passed upon for us by Sullivan & Worcester LLP, New York, New York. Certain legal matters with respect to the
legality of the issuance of the securities offered by this prospectus and other legal matters concerning this offering relating to Israeli
law were passed upon for us by Sullivan & Worcester Tel Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), Tel Aviv, Israel.
EXPERTS
The consolidated financial statements as of
December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for each of the years in the three-year period then ended incorporated by reference in this prospectus
have been incorporated in reliance on the report of Ziv Haft, Certified Public Accountants, Isr., BDO Member Firm, an independent registered
public accounting firm, incorporated herein by reference, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
The report on the consolidated financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern.
ENFORCEABILITY
OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We
are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers and the Israeli
experts named in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, a substantial majority of whom reside outside of the
United States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and a substantial
of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any
of our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States.
We
have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel, Sullivan & Worcester Tel Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), that it may be difficult to
assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation
of U.S. securities laws because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court
agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable,
the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure
will also be governed by Israeli law.
Subject
to specified time limitations and legal procedures, Israeli courts may enforce a U.S. judgment in a civil matter which, subject to certain
exceptions, is non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and including a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:
|
● |
the judgment is obtained after due process before a
court of competent jurisdiction, according to the laws of the state in which the judgment is given and the rules of private international
law currently prevailing in Israel; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the judgment is final and is not subject to any right
of appeal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the prevailing law of the foreign state in which
the judgment was rendered allows for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts. However, the court may enforce a foreign judgment,
even without reciprocity, based on the request of the Attorney General, under certain circumstances; |
|
|
|
|
● |
adequate service of process
has been effected and the defendant has had a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to present his or her evidence; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the liabilities under the
judgment are enforceable according to the laws of the State of Israel and the judgment and the enforcement of the civil liabilities
set forth in the judgment is not contrary to the law or public policy in Israel nor likely to impair the security or sovereignty
of Israel; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the judgment was not obtained
by fraud and does not conflict with any other valid judgments in the same matter between the same parties; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an action between the same
parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the lawsuit is instituted in the foreign court; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the judgment is enforceable
according to the laws of Israel and according to the law of the foreign state in which the relief was granted. |
If
a foreign judgment is enforced by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency, which can then be converted into
non-Israeli currency and transferred out of Israel. The usual practice in an action before an Israeli court to recover an amount in a
non-Israeli currency is for the Israeli court to issue a judgment for the equivalent amount in Israeli currency at the rate of exchange,
based on the latest official exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel before the payment date. However, the obligated party will
fulfill his duty under the judgment even if they choose to make the payment in the same foreign currency, subject to the laws governing
the foreign currency applicable at that time. Pending collection, the amount of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency
ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli CPI plus interest at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the
time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange rates.

YOU CAN FIND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
We
have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-1 under the Securities Act relating to the IPO. This prospectus does

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees
Indemnification
The Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999, or the
Companies Law, and the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, or the Securities Law, provide that a company may indemnify an office holder
against the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking
made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification:
|
● |
a financial liability imposed on him or her in favor
of another person by any judgment concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office holder, including a settlement
or arbitrator’s award approved by a court; |
|
|
|
|
● |
reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’
fees, expended by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority
authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (1) no indictment (as defined in the Companies Law) was filed
against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (2) no financial liability as a substitute for the
criminal proceeding (as defined in the Companies Law) was imposed upon him or her as a result of such investigation or proceeding,
or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent;
or (b) in connection with a monetary sanction; |
|
|
|
|
● |
reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’
fees, expended by the office holder or imposed on him or her by a court; (1) in proceedings that the company institutes, or that
another person institutes on the company’s behalf, against him or her; (2) in a criminal proceeding of which he or she was
acquitted; or (3) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal intent; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
expenses incurred by an office holder in connection
with an Administrative Procedure under the Securities Law, including reasonable litigation expenses and reasonable attorneys’
fees. An “Administrative Procedure” is defined as a procedure pursuant to chapters H3 (Monetary Sanction by the Israeli
Securities Authority), H4 (Administrative Enforcement Procedures of the Administrative Enforcement Committee) or I1 (Arrangement
to prevent Procedures or Interruption of procedures subject to conditions) to the Securities Law. |
The
Companies Law also permits a company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, provided that if such indemnification relates
to financial liability imposed on him or her, as described above, then the undertaking should be limited and shall detail the following
foreseen events and amount or criterion:
|
● |
to events that in the opinion of the board of directors
can be foreseen based on the company’s activities at the time that the undertaking to indemnify is made; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
in amount or criterion determined by the board of directors,
at the time of the giving of such undertaking to indemnify, to be reasonable under the circumstances. |
We
have entered into indemnification agreements with all of our directors and with all members of our senior management. Each such indemnification
agreement shall provide the office holder with indemnification permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the
extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance.
Exculpation
Under
the Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but
may exculpate in advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company
as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care (other than in relation to distributions), but only if a provision authorizing such
exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association provide that we may exculpate,
in whole or in part, any office holder from liability to us for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty
of care, but prohibit an exculpation, in advance, from liability arising from a company’s transaction in which our controlling
shareholder or office holder has a personal interest. Subject to the aforesaid limitations, under the indemnification agreements, we
exculpate and release our office holders from any and all liability to us related to any breach by them of their duty of care to us to
the fullest extent permitted by law.
Limitations
The Companies
Law provides that Wearable Devices Ltd., or the Company, may
not exculpate or indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any liability incurred
as a result of any of the following: (1) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty unless (in the case of indemnity
or insurance only, but not exculpation) the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would
not prejudice us; (2) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the breach was carried out intentionally or recklessly
(as opposed to merely negligently); (3) any act or omission committed with the intent to derive an illegal personal benefit; or (4) any
fine, monetary sanction, penalty or forfeit levied against the office holder.
Under
the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation
committee and the board of directors and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders.
Our
amended and restated articles of association permit us to exculpate (subject to the aforesaid limitation), indemnify and insure our office
holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by the Companies Law.
Item 7.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
Set forth below are the sales of all securities
by the Company since August 2021, which were not registered under the Securities Act. The Company believes that each of such issuances
was exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 701 and/or Regulation
S under the Securities Act. The conversions described below were exempt from registration under Securities Act in reliance on Section
3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
In November 2021, we issued warrants to purchase
up to 22,205 of the Company, NIS 0.01 par value per share, or Ordinary Shares, issued to a consultant, at an exercise price of $2.25
per share to a consultant, which all are vested as of September 20, 2024.
In
January 2022, we began entering into certain simple agreements for future equity, or the SAFEs, for aggregate proceeds of up to $3 million,
of which we received $500 thousand under the SAFEs. Any amounts received under the SAFEs we enter into will be automatically converted
into our Ordinary Shares in the event we close an Equity Financing (as defined hereinafter) at a discount of 20% from the per share purchase
price in such Equity Financing. An Equity Financing is a transaction or series of transactions with the principal purpose of raising
capital in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000, excluding all outstanding (i) SAFEs, and (ii) other convertible securities (if
any), pursuant to which we issue and sell Ordinary Shares at a fixed pre-money valuation. In addition, we agreed to issue to each SAFE
investor a warrant to purchase our Ordinary Shares with an exercise price equal to 150% of the public offering price in such offering
for an aggregate amount of up to 25% of such investor’s SAFE amount. The warrants shall be exercisable until the earlier of: (i)
eighteen (18) months from January 2022; or (ii) in a change of control event, which generally covers (a) transaction in which any person
or group becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities with the right to
vote for the election of members of our board of directors, or (b) any reorganization, merger or our consolidation, or (c) a sale, lease
or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets. Following the consummation of our initial public offering, or IPO, in
September 2022, $100 thousand received under the SAFEs were repaid in cash and $400 thousand were converted into 118,204 Ordinary Shares,
based on the IPO price of $4.23 per Ordinary Share.
In September 2022, we
issued warrants to purchase up to 23,640 Ordinary Shares, issued to an advisor, at an exercise price of $4.23 per Ordinary Share.
In
February 2023, we issued a total of 169,125 Ordinary Shares to Alpha Capital Anstalt, or Alpha, and certain other investors pursuant
to the terms of their April 2021 share purchase agreements with us, as amended by the June 2022 written consent with Alpha.
On June 6, 2024, we entered
into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, or the SEPA, with YA II PN, LTD., or YA, pursuant to which we will be able to sell up to $10.0
million of our Ordinary Shares, or the Commitment Amount, at our sole option, any time during the three-year period following the execution
date of the SEPA. Of the Commitment Amount, to date we have sold 3,715,602 Ordinary Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.7 million.
Pursuant to the terms of the SEPA, any Ordinary Shares sold to YA will be priced at 97% of the market price, which is defined as the
lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares during the three consecutive trading days commencing on the trading
day immediately following our delivery of an advance notice to YA.
Since August 2021, we have granted to our directors,
consultants and service providers, officers, and employees options to purchase an aggregate of 1,259,385 Ordinary Shares under our 2015
Share Option Plan, with an exercise prices ranging between $0.003 and $2.251 per share. As of September 20, 2024, 372,771 options granted
to directors, officers and employees were exercised, and 138,163 options forfeited, such that the total outstanding amount of options
allocated or granted to directors, consultants and service providers, officers and employees as of September 20, 2024 is 1,919,189.

Item 9.
Undertakings
|
(a) |
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: |
| (1) | To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this registration statement: |
| i. | To
include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
| 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% 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. |
| (2) | That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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. |
| (4) | To
file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements
required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous
offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by
means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph
(a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus
is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not
be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Act or Item 8.A of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained
in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant
to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
by reference in the Form F-3. |
| (5) | That,
for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: |
| i. | If
the registrant is relying on Rule 430B: |
| A. | Each
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part
of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and
included in the registration statement; and |
| B. | Each
prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of
a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to
Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by
section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in
the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first
used after effectiveness of the date of the first contract or sale of securities in the offering
described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer
and any person that is at that date and underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new
effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration
statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that
no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration
statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the
registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as
to a purchaser with a time of contract sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify
any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of
the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective
date; or |
| ii. | If
the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as
part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements
relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be
deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first
used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration
statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus
that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract
of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration
statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document
immediately prior to such date of first use. |
| (6) | That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933
to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant
to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities
to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any
of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser
and will be considered to offer or sell securities to such purchaser: |
| i. | Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering
required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
| ii. | Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned
registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
| iii. | The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material
information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of
the undersigned registrant; and |
| iv. | Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to
the purchaser. |
| (b) | Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
| (c) | The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: |
| (1) | That
for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information
omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance
upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant
to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part
of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. |
| (2) | That
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective
amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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. |

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing
on Form F-1 and has duly caused this registration statement on Form F-1 to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
