PROSPECTUS

4,652,175 American Depositary Shares representing 46,521,750 Ordinary Shares

 

Purple Biotech Ltd.

This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling shareholders named in this prospectus from time to time of up to an aggregate of 4,652,175 American Depositary Shares (the “Offered ADSs”), with each American Depositary Share (“ADS”) representing 10 of our ordinary shares, no par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”), or 46,521,750 Ordinary Shares in the aggregate, issued or issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”, comprised of the October Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants as defined below), that include (i) warrants issued in a concurrent private placement in connection with our registered direct offering in October 2023 (the “October Warrants”), pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2023, between us and the investor named therein (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), and (ii) warrants issued in a private placement (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) pursuant to an engagement letter dated as of September 26, 2023 (the “Engagement Letter”), between us and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”).

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Offered ADSs by the selling shareholders. Any ADSs subject to resale hereunder will have been issued by us and acquired by the selling shareholders prior to any resale of such shares pursuant to this prospectus.

The selling shareholders named in this prospectus and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest, may offer or resell the Offered ADSs from time to time through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The selling shareholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to the sale of the Offered ADSs. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the Ordinary Shares. For additional information on the methods of sale that may be used by the selling shareholders, see “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 13 of this prospectus.

The ADSs are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “PPBT.” On October 27, 2023, the last reported sale price of the ADSs on Nasdaq was $1.36 per ADS. Our Ordinary Shares are also listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (“TASE”) under the symbol “PPBT.” On October 29, 2023, the last reported sale price of our Ordinary Shares on the TASE was NIS 0.534, or USD 0.131 per ordinary share (based on the exchange rate reported by the Bank of Israel on such date, which was NIS 4.081 = USD 1.00).

For any taxable year that we determine that we are a Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”), we may in our sole discretion (i) provide notice of our status as a PFIC as soon as practicable following such taxable year; and (ii) comply with all reporting requirements necessary for U.S. Holders (as defined below) to make Qualified Electing Fund elections, including providing to shareholders upon request the information necessary for such an election.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. These risks are discussed in this prospectus under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4 and the “Risk Factors” in “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus, as well as in any other recently filed reports and, if any, in any applicable prospectus supplement.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information about us and information contained in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the Offered ADSs. You should carefully read and consider this entire prospectus and information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the financial statements and related notes and “Risk Factors” starting on page 4 of this prospectus, before making an investment decision. If you invest in our securities, you are assuming a high degree of risk.

The Company

We are a clinical-stage company developing first-in-class, effective and durable therapies that harness the power of the tumor microenvironment to overcome tumor immune evasion and drug resistance.

We are focused on oncology and our pipeline includes: (i) CM24, a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks the interactions of Carcinoembryonic Antigen Related Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 (CEACAM1), an immune checkpoint protein that supports tumor immune evasion and survival through multiple pathways, (ii) NT219, a small molecule that simultaneously targets and inhibits Insulin Receptor Substrate 1 and 2 (IRS1/2) and Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT3), two signal transduction pathways involved in the development of cancer drug resistance mechanisms; and (iii) IM1240, a conditionally-activated tri-specific antibody that engages both T cells and NK cells. The third arm of IM1240 specifically targets the Tumor Associated Antigen (TAA) 5T4. In developing these therapeutic candidates, we address not only the tumor itself but also the tumor microenvironment, which we believe may improve patient outcome.

● We are conducting a randomized, controlled, open label multicenter phase 2 study to investigate CM24 in combination with the anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab for the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) when administered in combination with standard of care chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone. We have entered into a clinical collaboration agreement with Bristol Myers Squibb to evaluate the combination of CM24 with the PD-1 inhibitor nivolumab and nab-paclitaxel in this study. We expect to release interim data in the second half of 2023 and a topline report on the overall study by the end of 2024;

● We are conducting a phase 1/2 dose escalation study of NT219 as a single agent in patients with solid tumors, and a dose escalation phase of NT219 in combination with cetuximab for the treatment of recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck cancer or colorectal adenocarcinoma. These studies will be followed by an expansion phase of NT219 at its recommended phase 2 dose level in combination with cetuximab in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. We reported positive interim and preliminary results in which anti-tumor activity was noted in the highest dose cohort of NT219 in combination with cetuximab. We continue to explore higher dose optimization and are planning to enter into a phase 2 study in the first half of 2024; and

● We are conducting preclinical studies with IM1240 and expect to reach IND submission in approximately two years.

In addition, we are seeking the acquisition of additional oncology therapeutic candidates at various stages of development to expand and diversify our portfolio and to leverage our development capabilities.

October Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement

On October 17, 2023, we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold (A) in a registered direct offering, 2,430,000 ADSs and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,917,827 ADS, and (B) in a concurrent private placement, the October Warrants to purchase up to 4,347,827 ADSs, which have an exercise price of $1.25 per ADS, are exercisable immediately and will expire on April 19, 2029, at an offering price of $1.15 per ADS and associated October Warrant and an offering price of $1.149 per pre-funded warrant and associated October Warrant (the “October Offering”).

As part of the compensation to Wainwright in connection with the October Offering, we issued to Wainwright unregistered Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,348 ADSs at an exercise price of $1.4375 per ADS, pursuant to the Engagement Letter. The Placement Agent Warrants expire on October 17, 2028.

In connection with the October Offering, we expect to issue up to approximately 735,000 ADSs pursuant to an anti-dilution provision of that certain Lock-Up and Registration Rights Agreements entered into with former Immunorizon shareholders in connection with the acquisition of Immunorizon in February 2023 (the “Anti-Dilution Share Issuance”).

Amendment of June 2020 Warrants and June 2018 Warrants

In connection with the October Offering, we agreed with the investor in the October Offering to amend (i) certain existing warrants to purchase an aggregate of 555,556 ADSs at an exercise price of $9.00 per ADS, issued on June 23, 2020 (the “June 2020 Warrants”), and (ii) certain existing warrants to purchase an aggregate of 76,000 ADSs at an exercise price of $28.00 per ADS issued on June 1, 2018 (the “June 2018 Warrants”), so that such amended warrants, in each case, will have a reduced exercise price of $1.25 per ADS and an expiration date of April 19, 2029 (the “Warrant Amendment”).

THE OFFERING

Securities offered by the selling shareholders	Up to 4,652,175 ADSs representing 46,521,750 Ordinary Shares.
The ADSs	Each ADS represents 10 of our Ordinary Shares. The ADSs will be delivered by The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary (the “Depositary”). The Depositary, as depositary, or its nominee, will be the holder of the Ordinary Shares underlying the ADSs and you will have rights as provided in the Deposit Agreement, dated as November 20, 2015, among us, the Depositary and all owners and holders from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder (the “Deposit Agreement”), a form of which has been filed as Exhibit 1 to the Registration Statement on Form F-6 filed by the Depositary with the SEC on November 6, 2015. Subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and in compliance with the relevant requirements set out in the prospectus, you may turn in the ADSs to the Depositary for cancellation and withdrawal of the Ordinary Shares underlying the ADSs. The Depositary will charge you fees for such cancellations pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. You should carefully read the Deposit Agreement to better understand the terms of the ADSs.
Selling shareholders	All of the Offered ADSs are being offered by the selling shareholders named herein. See “Selling Shareholders” on page 9 of this prospectus for more information on the selling shareholders.
Use of proceeds	We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the Offered ADSs issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. However, we may receive the proceeds from any exercise of the Warrants if the holders exercise the Warrants for cash. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for cash, if any, to fund the development of our oncology drug candidates, acquisition of new assets and for general working capital purposes. We currently have no binding agreements or commitments to complete any transaction for the possible acquisition of new therapeutic candidates, though we are currently, and likely to continue, exploring possible acquisition candidates. See the section of this prospectus titled “Use of Proceeds.”
Plan of Distribution	The selling shareholders, and any of their pledgees, and successors-in-interest, may offer or sell the Offered ADSs from time to time through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may also resell the Offered ADSs to or through underwriters, broker- dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 13 of this prospectus for additional information on the methods of sale that may be used by the selling shareholders.
Risk factors	See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4 and the other information included elsewhere in this prospectus for a discussion of factors you should carefully consider before deciding to invest in the ADSs.
Listing	The ADSs are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “PPBT” and our Ordinary Shares are listed on the TASE under the symbol “PPBT.”

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus and in the documents we incorporate by reference herein, you should carefully consider the risks discussed below and under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, before making a decision about investing in our securities. The risks and uncertainties discussed below and in the Annual Report on Form 20-F are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently see as immaterial, may also harm our business. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed, the trading price of the ADSs could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Please also read carefully the section above entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to the Current Condition in Israel

We conduct our operations in Israel. Conditions in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations from the Gaza Strip and Israel’s war against them, may affect our operations.

Because we are incorporated under the laws of the state of Israel and our operations are conducted in Israel, our business and operations are directly affected by economic, political, geopolitical and military conditions in Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have occurred between Israel and its neighboring countries and terrorist organizations active in the region. These conflicts have involved missile strikes, hostile infiltrations and terrorism against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, which have negatively affected business conditions in Israel.

In October 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 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 a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. Moreover, the clash between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, may escalate in the future into a grater regional conflict.

Any hostilities involving Israel, or the interruption or curtailment of trade within Israel or between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital. Parties with whom we may do business have sometimes declined to travel to Israel during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us to make alternative arrangements when necessary. The conflict situation in Israel could cause situations where medical product certifying or auditing bodies could not be able to visit manufacturing facilities of our subcontractors in Israel in order to review our certifications or clearances, thus possibly leading to temporary suspensions or even cancellations of our product clearances or certifications. The conflict situation in Israel could also result in parties with whom we have agreements involving performance in Israel claiming that they are not obligated to perform their commitments under those agreements pursuant to force majeure provisions in such agreements.

There have been travel advisories imposed as related to travel to Israel, and restriction on travel, or delays and disruptions as related to imports and exports may be imposed in the future. An inability to receive supplies and materials, shortages of materials or difficulties in procuring our materials, among others, may adversely impact our ability to commercialize and manufacture our product candidates and products in a timely manner. This could cause a number of delays and/or issues for our operations, including delay of the review of our product candidates by regulatory agencies, which in turn would have a material adverse impact on our ability to commercialize our product candidates.

4

Additionally, members of our management and employees are located and reside in Israel. Shelter-in-place and work-from-home measures, government-imposed restrictions on movement and travel and other precautions taken to address the ongoing conflict may temporarily disrupt our management and employees’ ability to effectively perform their daily tasks.

The Israel Defense Force (the “IDF”), the national military of Israel, is a conscripted military service, subject to certain exceptions. Several of our employees are subject to military service in the IDF and have been and may be called to serve. It is possible that there will be further military reserve duty call-ups in the future, which may affect our business due to a shortage of skilled labor and loss of institutional knowledge, and necessary mitigation measures we may take to respond to a decrease in labor availability, such as overtime and third-party outsourcing, for example, which may have unintended negative effects and adversely impact our results of operations, liquidity or cash flows.

It is currently not possible to predict the duration or severity of the ongoing conflict or its effects on our business, operations and financial conditions. The ongoing conflict is rapidly evolving and developing, and could disrupt our business and operations, interrupt our sources and availability of supply and hamper our ability to raise additional funds or sell our securities, among others.

Risks Related to the ADSs 

U.S. holders of ADSs may suffer adverse tax consequences if we were characterized as a passive foreign investment company.

Based on the current composition of our gross income and assets and on reasonable assumptions and projections, we believe we will likely be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for 2023. If we are characterized as a PFIC, U.S. holders of the ADSs may suffer adverse tax consequences such as (i) having gains realized on the sale of the ADSs treated as ordinary income rather than capital gain, (ii) not qualifying for the preferential rate otherwise applicable to dividends received in respect of the ADSs by individuals who are U.S. holders, and (iii) having interest charges apply to certain distributions by us and upon certain sales of the ADSs.

The sale of a substantial amount of the ADSs, including resale of the Offered ADSs issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants by the selling shareholders, in the public market, or the perception that future sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the ADSs.

We are registering for resale 46,521,750 Ordinary Shares represented by 4,652,175 ADSs underlying the Warrants. In addition, as of October 23, 2023, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 42,001,460 Ordinary Shares (represented by 4,200,136 ADSs), outstanding options and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to purchase 26,942,652 Ordinary Shares (represented by 2,694,266 ADSs), each with respect to one ADS. Sales of substantial amounts of ADSs in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur in the future, including sales of the Offered ADSs, ADSs issuable upon vesting of RSUs and the exercise of options, warrants or other equity-based securities, may cause the market price of the ADS to decline. We cannot predict if and when the selling shareholders may sell such shares in the public markets. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional ADSs or other equity or debt securities convertible into ADSs. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders and could cause the price of the ADSs to decline.

5

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the Offered ADSs issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. All net proceeds from the sale of the Offered ADSs covered by this prospectus will go to the selling shareholders.

We may receive proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants to the extent that these Warrants are exercised for cash. If all of the Warrants are exercised for cash in full, the proceeds would be approximately $5.87 million.

We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for cash, if any, to fund the development of our oncology drug candidates, acquisition of new assets and for general working capital purposes. We currently have no binding agreements or commitments to complete any transaction for the possible acquisition of new therapeutic candidates, though we are currently, and likely to continue, exploring possible acquisition candidates.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

October Offering

On October 17, 2023, we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold (A) in a registered direct offering, 2,430,000 ADSs and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,917,827 ADS, and (B) in a concurrent private placement, the October Warrants to purchase up to 4,347,827 ADSs, which have an exercise price of $1.25 per ADS, are exercisable immediately and will expire on April 19, 2029, at an offering price of $1.15 per ADS and associated October Warrant and an offering price of $1.149 per pre-funded warrant and associated October Warrant.

The issuance of the October Warrants described above was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) pursuant to an exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with the investor, we agreed, among other things, to file a registration statement with the SEC for purposes of registering the resale of the ADSs issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants as soon as practicable (and in any event within forty-five (45) calendar days of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and to keep such registration statement effective until such time as the investor, its successors and assigns, as applicable, no longer own any October Warrants or the ADSs issuable upon exercise thereof.

We are registering the resale by the investor of the ADSs issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants in order to permit the holder of the October Warrants to offer such ADSs for resale from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. The holder of the October Warrants may also sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of the ADSs in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or pursuant to another effective registration statement covering those.

Placement Agent Warrants

As part of the compensation to Wainwright in connection with the October Offering, pursuant to the Engagement Letter, between us and Wainwright, we issued to Wainwright’s designees the unregistered Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,348 ADSs at an exercise price of $1.4375 per ADS. The Placement Agent Warrants are exercisable until October 17, 2028.

The resale of the ADSs issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants and the Ordinary Shares underlying the ADSs is being registered in this registration statement.

Relationships with the Selling Shareholders

Except for ownership of the October Warrants and as described in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including investments by Armistice Capital in several offerings of our securities, Armistice Capital has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

Wainwright and its respective affiliates have engaged in investment banking, advisory and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates for which they have received customary fees and commissions. Wainwright acted as the placement agent in connection with several offerings of our securities in the past three years, and it received compensation for each such offering.

Information About Selling Shareholders Offering

The Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs being offered by the selling shareholders are those issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, described above. We are registering the Offered ADSs in order to permit the selling shareholders to offer the Offered ADSs for resale from time to time.

9

Throughout this prospectus, when we refer to the Offered ADSs being registered on behalf of the selling shareholder, we are referring to the Offered ADSs issued or issuable upon cash exercise of the Warrants, and when we refer to the selling shareholders in this prospectus we are referring to each selling shareholder identified below, and, as applicable, permitted transferees or other successors-in-interest of the selling shareholders that may be identified in a supplement to this prospectus or, if required, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

The table below provides information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs by the selling shareholders. The second column lists the number of Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs beneficially owned by the selling shareholders, based on their beneficial ownership of the Offered ADSs, as of October 23, 2023, assuming the exercise of the Warrants held by each selling shareholder on that date, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fourth column lists the maximum number of Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs being offered in this prospectus by each selling shareholder, issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, respectively, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fifth and sixth columns list the number of Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs owned after the offering of the Offered ADSs and the percentage of outstanding Ordinary Shares, assuming in both cases the exercise of the Warrants held by that selling shareholder, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants, and assuming the sale of all of the Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs offered by that selling shareholder pursuant to this prospectus.

The selling shareholders may sell some, all or none of their Offered ADSs. We do not know when or whether the selling shareholders will exercise their Warrants nor do we know how long the selling shareholders will hold their Offered ADSs before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling shareholders regarding the exercise of any Warrants, or the sale or other disposition of any of the Offered ADSs. The Offered ADSs covered hereby may be offered from time to time by the selling shareholders.

Unless otherwise indicated, all information contained in the table below and the footnotes thereto is based upon information provided to us by the selling shareholders. The percentage of shares owned prior to and after the offering is based on 291,110,576 of our Ordinary Shares outstanding as of October 23, 2023. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, we believe that each selling shareholder has sole voting and investment power with respect to the Ordinary Shares indicated as beneficially owned. Except as otherwise indicated below, based on the information provided to us by the selling shareholders, and to the best of our knowledge, no selling shareholder is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.

** The warrants held by the investor are subject to a 4.99% blocker according to which the investor of the October Warrants (together with their affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the holder’s option upon initial issuance, 9.99%) of our outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately after the exercise. However, upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, a holder with a 4.99% ownership blocker may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding Ordinary Shares after exercising the warrants up to 9.99% of the number of our Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants (the “Blocker”).

(1) Number of Ordinary Shares includes Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs. Each ADS represents ten (10) Ordinary Shares.

(2) The securities are directly held by Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Master Fund”), and may be deemed to be beneficially owned by: (i) Armistice Capital, LLC (“Armistice Capital”), as the investment manager of the Master Fund; and (ii) Steven Boyd, as the Managing Member of Armistice Capital. The warrants are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99%, which such limitation restricts the Selling Stockholder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of Ordinary Shares in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation. The address of Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. Is c/o Armistice Capital, LLC, 510 Madison Avenue, 7^th Floor, New York, NY 10022.  

(3) Represents 92,615,860 Ordinary Shares represented by 9,261,586 ADSs consisting of (i) 4,347,827 ADSs issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants, without regard to the 4.99% Blocker on the exercise of the October Warrants, (ii) 2,364,376 ADSs, (iii) 1,917,827 ADSs issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants issued in the October Offering, without regard to the 9.99% Blocker on the exercise of the pre-funded warrants, and (iv) 631,556 ADSs issuable upon the exercise of the June 2020 Warrants and the June 2018 Warrants, without regard to the 4.99% Blocker on the exercise of such warrants. Each of the exercise of the October Warrants, the pre-funded warrants issued in the October Offering, the June 2020 Warrants and the June 2018 Warrants is subject to the applicable Blocker. Consequently, as of the date set forth above, Armistice may not necessarily be able to exercise all of these warrants due to the Blocker. The number of Ordinary Shares set forth in the above table does not reflect the application of this limitation.

(4) Represents 43,478,270 Ordinary Shares represented by 4,347,827 ADSs issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of such warrants. The exercise of the foregoing warrants is subject to the Blocker.

(6) The selling shareholders were issued compensation warrants as a designee of Wainwright in connection with the Placement Agent Warrants. Each selling stockholder is affiliated with Wainwright, a registered broker dealer with a registered address of H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10022, and has sole voting and dispositive power over the securities held. Each selling stockholder may not exercise the Placement Agent Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause each selling shareholders, together with his affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of Ordinary Shares which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding Ordinary Shares following such exercise, or, upon notice to us, 9.99% of our then outstanding Ordinary Shares following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such securities which have not been so exercised. The selling stockholder acquired the warrants in the ordinary course of business and, at the time the warrants were acquired, the selling stockholder had no agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute such securities.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling shareholders of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of the securities covered hereby on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

● ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

● block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as an agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

● purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

● an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

● privately negotiated transactions;

● settlement of short sales made after the effective date of the registration statement;

● in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

● through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

● a combination of any such methods of sale; or

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121, and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may, in turn, engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions it assumes. The selling shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out its short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling shareholders may also enter into options or other transactions with broker- dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

13

The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The selling shareholders have informed the Company that they do not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the selling shareholders do not own any Warrants or do not own any Ordinary Shares represented by the Offered ADSs issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market-making activities with respect to the Offered ADSs for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Offered ADSs by the selling shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A. Major Shareholders

The material changes in the registrant’s affairs which have occurred since the end of the latest fiscal year which have not been described in a report on Form 6-K includes the following:

As of March 3, 2023, no person or entity known to us beneficially owned 5% or more of our outstanding ordinary shares. Upon closing of the October Offering, the ownership percentage of Armistice Capital increased from under 5% to 9.99%.

The beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of the security. We deem ordinary shares issuable pursuant to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of October 23, 2023 and ordinary shares underlying RSUs that vest within 60 days of October 23, 2023, if any, to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options warrants or RSUs for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The calculation of beneficial ownership is based on 291,110,576 ordinary shares (not including 1 share held in treasury) outstanding as of October 23, 2023. Each one (1) ADS held represents ten (10) ordinary shares. The data presented is based on information known to the Company or disclosed in public regulatory filings in the U.S. or Israel, in accordance with applicable law.

None of our shareholders has different voting rights from other shareholders. To the best of our knowledge, we are not owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by another corporation or by any foreign government. We are not aware of any arrangement that may, at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our company.

Record Holders

The Bank of New York Mellon, or BNY, is the holder of record for our ADR program, pursuant to which each ADS represents ten ordinary shares. As of October 26, 2023, BNY held 227,520,840 ordinary shares in custody representing 93.02% of the outstanding ordinary shares at that date. Certain of these ordinary shares were held by brokers or other nominees. As a result, the number of holders of record or registered holders in the United States is not representative of the number of beneficial holders or of the residence of beneficial holders.

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 this prospectus, substantially all of whom reside outside the United States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and substantially all of our directors and officers are located outside 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.

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. If U.S. law is applicable, then it 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, and certain exceptions, Israeli courts may enforce a United States judgment in a civil matter which (subject to limited exceptions) is non-appealable, including a judgment 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:

● the judgment was rendered by a court which was, according to the laws of the state of the court, competent to render the judgment;

● the obligation imposed by the judgment is enforceable according to the rules relating to the enforceability of judgments in Israel and the substance of the judgment is not contrary to public policy; and

● the judgment is executory in the state in which it was given.

Even if these conditions are met, an Israeli court may not declare a foreign civil judgment enforceable if:

● the judgment was given in a state whose laws do not provide for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts (subject to exceptional cases);

● the enforcement of the judgment is likely to prejudice the sovereignty or security of the State of Israel;

● the judgment was obtained by fraud;

● the opportunity given to the defendant to bring its arguments and evidence before the court was not reasonable in the opinion of the Israeli court;

● the judgment was rendered by a court not competent to render such judgement according to the laws of private international law as they apply in Israel;

● the judgment is contradictory to another judgment that was rendered in the same matter between the same parties and that is still valid; or

● at the time the action was brought in the foreign court, a lawsuit in the same matter and between the same parties was pending before a court or tribunal in Israel.

We have irrevocably appointed Puglisi & Associates, 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark, DE 19715 Tel: +1 (302) 738-6680 as our agent to receive service of process in any action against us in any United States federal or state court arising out of this offering or any purchase or sale of securities in connection with this offering.

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 in force on the date of the judgment, but the judgment debtor may make payment in foreign currency. Pending collection, the amount of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli consumer price index 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.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Under the Companies Law, a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of a fiduciary duty. An Israeli company may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of duty of care but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association include such a provision. The company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising out of a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders.

Under the Companies Law and the Securities Law, 5728 – 1968 (“Securities Law”) a company may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities, payments and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification:

● a monetary liability incurred by or imposed on him or her in favor of another person pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court. However, if an undertaking to indemnify an office holder with respect to such liability is provided in advance, then such an undertaking must be limited to events which, in the opinion of the board of directors, can be foreseen based on the company’s activities when the undertaking to indemnify is given, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the board of directors as reasonable under the circumstances, and such undertaking shall detail the abovementioned foreseen events and amount or criteria;

● reasonable litigation expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder 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 (i) no indictment was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (ii) no financial liability was imposed upon him or her as a substitute for the criminal proceeding 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 in connection with a monetary sanction;

● a monetary liability imposed on him or her in favor of a payment for a breach offended at an Administrative Procedure (as defined below) as set forth in Section 52(54)(a)(1)(a) to the Securities Law;

● expenses associated with an Administrative Procedure conducted regarding an office holder, including reasonable litigation expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees; and

● reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court in proceedings instituted against him or her by the company, on its behalf, or by a third party, or in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder was acquitted, or as a result of a conviction for an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent.

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.

II-1

Under the Companies Law and the Securities Law, a company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder if and to the extent provided in the company’s articles of association:

● a breach of a fiduciary duty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company;

● a breach of duty of care to the company or to a third party, to the extent such a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;

● a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party;

● a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of an injured party at an Administrative Procedure pursuant to Section 52(54)(a)(1)(a) of the Securities Law; and

● expenses incurred by an office holder in connection with an Administrative Procedure, including reasonable litigation expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Under the Companies Law, a company may not indemnify, exculpate or insure an office holder against any of the following:

● a breach of fiduciary duty, except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of the fiduciary duty to the company to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;

● a breach of duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;

● an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or

● a fine or forfeit levied against the office holder.

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders must be approved by the compensation committee (or the audit committee acting in lieu of a compensation committee pursuant to the Companies Law) and the board of directors and, with respect to directors or controlling shareholders, their relatives and third parties in which such controlling shareholders have a personal interest, also by the shareholders.

Under the Companies Law exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to directors or controlling shareholders, their relatives and third parties in which such controlling shareholders have a personal interest, also by the shareholders

The compensation committee may approve the procurement of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy without the need for shareholder approval, if they determine that, pursuant to the relief regulations promulgated under the Companies Law the provision of such insurance coverage to the office holders under our directors and officers liabilities insurance policy is on market terms, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our profits, assets or obligations, and is consistent with our Compensation Policy which was approved by our shareholders in accordance with the Companies Law.

II-2

Our amended and restated articles of association permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by law. Our office holders are currently covered by a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy.

We have issued letters of indemnity (the “Indemnity Letters”) to each of our current office holders pursuant to which we undertook to indemnify such office holders to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. This indemnification is limited to events determined as foreseeable by our Board of Directors based on our activities, as set forth in the Indemnity Letters. According to the Indemnity Letters, the total accumulative sum of indemnification that may be paid by us to all office holders will not exceed a sum equal to 25% of our shareholders’ equity according to our latest audited or reviewed consolidated financial statements, as the case may be, as of the date of indemnification. The payment of indemnity amounts will not prejudice the right of office holders to receive insurance coverage benefits. Once we have paid to our office holders the aggregate maximum indemnity amount that we may pay to all our office holders, we will not pay additional indemnity amounts unless the payment of these additional amounts is approved by the authorized corporate bodies according to the applicable law at the time of payment of the additional indemnity sums, and subject to an amendment to our articles of association if required by applicable law at such time.

In addition, we have issued letters of exemption to each of our current office holders exculpating them from a breach of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law.

We expect to indemnify our officers and directors for obligations, including the deductibles for our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, and we may be required to pay costs and expenses they may incur related to the 2017 Motions and the Atzmon Claim all as described in “Legal Proceedings” in the sales prospectus that forms a part of this Registration Statement on Form F-3, pursuant to the Indemnity Letters issued to our directors and officers. To our knowledge, other than with respect to the foregoing proceedings, there is no previous or pending litigation or proceeding against any of our office holders as to which indemnification is being, or may be sought, nor are we aware of any other pending or threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in claims for indemnification by any office holder.

Insofar as indemnifications for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 7. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

FameWave Transaction

On January 7, 2020, we closed the FameWave Transaction, pursuant to which we acquired 100% of the shares of FameWave, a privately held Israeli biopharmaceutical company, from its shareholders in exchange for newly issued ADSs subject to a 12-month lock-up period, priced at $12.30 per ADS, plus 50% warrant coverage with an exercise price of $19.80 per ADS with a 4-year term (the “Acquisition Agreement”). We issued a total of 807,561 of our ADSs and warrants to purchase up to 403,781 additional ADSs pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement. In addition to the share exchange, in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement, three leading life science focused investment funds, Orbimed, Pontifax Group, and Arkin, which collectively (together with their respective affiliates) held approximately 90% of FameWave, invested an aggregate of $3.5 million in the Company in exchange for 284,553 newly issued ADSs of the Company, priced at $12.30 per ADS. The above-mentioned securities were offered and issued on a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Regulation S, Section 4(a)(2) or Regulation D (Rule 506) under the U.S. Securities Act, as applicable.

April 2020 Warrant Exercise Letters

On April 19, 2020, we entered into Warrant Exercise Letters (the “Exercise Agreement”), with certain institutional investors (the “April 2020 Holders”) holding the Company’s warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 2 million of the Company’s ADSs at an exercise price of $3.25 per ADS (the “March 2020 Warrants”), previously issued in a public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-235729) that was consummated in March 2020, pursuant to which the April 2020 Holders agreed to exercise their March 2020 Warrants in full. Under the Exercise Agreement, we also agreed to issue to the April 2020 Holders in a private placement new unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of approximately 2.2 million ADSs at an exercise price of $3.25 per ADS (the “April 2020 Warrants”). All of the April 2020 Warrants have been since exercised for cash, for which we received gross proceeds of approximately $7 million.

II-3

The April 2020 Warrants were exercisable immediately and had a term of exercise period of five and one-half (5.5) years from April 22, 2020.

We also issued unregistered warrants to purchase up to 140,000 ADSs to Wainwright, the exclusive placement agent for the offering (the “April 2020 Placement Agent Warrants”). The April 2020 Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price of $4.06 per ADS and expire on October 22, 2025.

The April 2020 Warrants and April 2020 Placement Agent Warrants were issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act regarding transactions not involving a public offering and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

May 2020 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement of Warrants

In May 2020 we issued to institutional and accredited investors warrants to purchase up to 2,500,000 ADSs (the “May 2020 Warrants”) in a private placement completed concurrently with a registered direct offering. The May 2020 Warrants have a termination date of November 10, 2025, were exercisable immediately and have an exercise price of $4.00 per ADS. Each holder of the May 2020 Warrants may not exercise any portion of the May 2020 Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the holder’s option upon initial issuance, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately after exercise. However, upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company, a holder with a 4.99% ownership blocker may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding Ordinary Shares after exercising the holder’s May 2020 Warrant up to 9.99% of the number of the Company’s Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the May 2020 Warrant. The May 2020 offering closed on May 8, 2020. Of the May 2020 Warrants originally issued, warrants to purchase up to 793,333 ADSs representing 7,933,339 Ordinary Shares remain outstanding.

We also issued unregistered warrants to purchase up to 175,000 ADSs to Wainwright (the “May 2020 Placement Agent Warrants”), the exclusive placement agent for the offering. The May 2020 Placement agent warrants have a termination date of May 6, 2025 and an exercise price of $5.00 per ADS.

The May 2020 Warrants, the May 2020 Placement Agent Warrants and the ADSs representing Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the May 2020 Warrants and the May 2020 Placement Agent Warrants were issued pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

October 2023 Offering

On October 17, 2023, we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold (A) in a registered direct offering, 2,430,000 ADSs and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,917,827 ADS, and (B) in a concurrent private placement, the October Warrants to purchase up to 4,347,827 ADSs, which have an exercise price of $1.25 per ADS, are exercisable immediately and will expire on April 19, 2029, at an offering price of $1.15 per ADS and associated October Warrant and an offering price of $1.149 per pre-funded warrant and associated October Warrant.

II-4

As part of the compensation to Wainwright in connection with October Offering, we issued to Wainwright unregistered Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 304,348 ADSs at an exercise price of $1.4375 per ADS, pursuant to the Engagement Letter. The Placement Agent Warrants expire on October 17, 2028.

The October Warrants, the Placement Agent Warrants and the ADSs representing Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants were issued pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

Immunorizon Acquisition

On February 1, 2023, we entered into the Share Purchase Agreement dated February 1, 2023 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shareholdings from the shareholders of Immunorizon Ltd. and Immunorizon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

In consideration for the transfer of 100% of Immunorizon’s shares to us and the other obligations set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement, we paid an aggregate purchase price consisting of an aggregate upfront payment of $3.5 million in cash and an aggregate $3.5 million in ADSs (the “Immunorizon ADSs”), at a price per ADS equal to the NASDAQ volume-weighted average price of our ADSs for the 60-day period preceding the execution date of the agreement the (“PPS”).

The Immunorizon ADSs were issued to certain major shareholders of Immunorizon (the “Major Selling Shareholders”) and are subject to a three-month lock-up period. We also undertook to file a resale registration statement with the SEC to register the ADSs for resale following the lock-up period, as further described below (see “Immunorizon Anti-Dilution Shares”).

The Immunorizon ADSs were issued pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act exemption provided under Regulation S.

Immunorizon Anti-Dilution Shares

At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Lock-Up and Registration Rights Agreement (the “Lock-Up and Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Major Selling Shareholders. In the event that during one year following the closing of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company enters into an agreement or makes a filing pursuant to which it issues ADSs or other equity securities in a financing transaction (other than under its ATM program used for an accumulated amount of up to $2,000,000 worth of ADSs sold during any 90 days period following the closing of the Share Purchase Agreement, a non-cash transaction or a strategic transaction such as strategic joint venture, pre-clinical or clinical collaboration), at the New PPS (a “Dilutive Event”), and at such time a Major Selling Shareholder still holds any ADSs issued to it under the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company shall issue such Major Selling Shareholder additional ADSs (“Additional ADSs”) equal to: (i) (A) the number of such ADSs held by such Major Selling Shareholder at such time, multiplied by (B) the PPS divided by (C) the New PPS, minus (ii) the number of such ADSs held by such Major Selling Shareholder at such time. Such protection shall only be provided once.

In October 2023, pursuant to the Lock-Up and Registration Rights Agreement, we expect to issue such former shareholders of Immunorizon up to approximately 735,000 additional ADSs. Such issuance was undertaken in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

Item 9. Undertakings.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(a)(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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(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.

(b) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchasers, 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.

(c) 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 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
