This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) is being filed to update the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 3, 2018 (the “Original Statement”), and relates to the ordinary shares, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”), of magicJack VocalTec Ltd., an Israeli corporation (the “Issuer”).
Except as otherwise described herein, the information contained in the Original Statement remains in effect. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings set forth with respect thereto in the Original Statement.
The filing of this Amendment represents the final amendment to the Original Statement and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
There has been no change to the information disclosed in Item 2 of the Original Statement, except that “Schedule A” as referenced therein is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to refer to the Schedule A annexed hereto.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Original Statement is hereby amended by adding the following immediately after the first paragraph thereof:
In connection with the closing of the Merger, on November 9, 2018, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 9, 2018, by and between B. Riley Principal Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of BRF (“BRPI”), and YMax Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of magicJack (“YMax”), BRPI purchased from YMax 5,942,715 Ordinary Shares (the “Purchased Shares”) for aggregate cash consideration in the amount of $33.0 million in an effort to acquire all of the issued Ordinary Shares in connection with the Merger. BRPI funded the purchase price of the Purchased Shares with cash on hand.
The Merger Agreement was approved by the Issuer’s shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders on March 19, 2018, and the Merger was consummated on November 14, 2018. In accordance with the Merger Agreement, each Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Ordinary Share owned by BRF, Merger Sub or the Issuer, except to the extent such Ordinary Share was held for the benefit of any third party), was converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $8.71 without interest. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Ordinary Shares held by BRF and its subsidiaries (including the 1,249,600 Ordinary Shares previously purchased by BRFBR as disclosed in the Original Statement and the Purchased Shares held by BRPI) immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger were automatically canceled for no consideration and ceased to exist as of the Effective Time. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer with the Issuer surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BRF.
Information
concerning changes in the board of directors and management of the Issuer and the charter of the Issuer has been previously disclosed
under Item 3.03, Item 5.02 and Item 5.03, respectively, of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 15, 2018, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Items 5(a)-(c) and (e) of the Original Statement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
(a)-(b) As a result of the Merger, BRF acquired and, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, beneficially owns 100% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and has sole power to vote and dispose of 100% of the Ordinary Shares.
(c) Except as set forth in this Amendment, none of the Reporting Persons has engaged in any transaction in Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.
(e) On November 14, 2018, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated and the Ordinary Shares were delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The Ordinary Shares are in the process of being deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, this is an exit filing, and constitutes the Reporting Persons’ final amendment to Schedule 13D.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 of the Original Statement is hereby amended by adding the following immediately after the second paragraph thereof:

8.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to herein) contains the entire understanding of the Parties in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (oral or written) between the Parties with respect to such subject matter.
8.4 Binding Effect; Assignment. The rights and obligations of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Except as expressly provided herein, the rights and obligations of this Agreement may not be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that Buyer may assign any and all rights under this Agreement to one or more of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries (but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder). Any purported assignment in violation of this Agreement is null and void ab initio.
8.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended to confer any legal or equitable rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
8.6 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and its enforcement will be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such state without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.
8.7 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each Party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such Court does not have jurisdiction, any Delaware State court, or Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof (the “Delaware Courts”), for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity thereof. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceedings brought in such court. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or argue in any such court (a) that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with applicable Law, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts or from any legal process commenced in the Delaware Courts (including but not limited to service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in the Delaware Courts is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by the Delaware Courts.

8.8 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE, IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
8.9 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, without posting bond or other undertaking, the Parties shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any such action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party will allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law. The Parties further agree that (a) by seeking any remedy provided for in this Section 8.9, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such Party under this Agreement, including monetary damages, and (b) nothing contained in this Section 8.9 shall require any Party to institute any action for (or limit such Party’s right to institute any action for) specific performance under this Section 8.9 before exercising any other right under this Agreement nor shall the commencement of any action pursuant to this Section 8.9 or anything in this Section 8.9 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 7.1 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.
8.10 Severability. If any provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (a) a substitute and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction, the intent and purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision, and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability of such provision affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.
8.11 Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Buyer and Seller, or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

8.12 Expenses. Each Party will bear its respective fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Transactions, including all fees and expenses of its representatives.
8.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by means of facsimile and electronically transmitted portable document format (pdf) signature pages), each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
8.14 Fulfillment of Obligations. Any obligation of any Party to any other Party under this Agreement, which obligation is performed, satisfied or fulfilled completely by an Affiliate of such Party, shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such Party.
