NOTE 5 - CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS:

 
During the first quarter of 2011 and prior to the Exchange Agreement, InspireMD Ltd. raised approximately $990,000 and issued approximately 803,000 ordinary shares through private placements.

During the first quarter of 2011 and prior to the Exchange Agreement, InspireMD Ltd. granted 600,294 stock options to employees and consultants at a cash exercise price of $1.23 per share.  The options had terms of four to ten years.

On January 4, 2011, the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with its distributer in Israel (the “Lender”), in the amount of $100,000 subject to the following conditions:
 
 
the convertible loan does not bear annual interest;
 
 
in the event of a share exchange or similar transaction, the Lender shall have, at its sole discretion, the option to convert the loan into either (i) shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $1.23 per share ($10 as relates to Inspire MD), or (ii) the Company's product at a price of 400 euro per unit (which represents the market price for the Lender); in the event that the Company does not close a share exchange or similar transaction by June 1, 2011, the Lender shall have the right to extend the loan and its terms for up to an additional 6 months (as noted in Note 1 the Exchange Agreement was closed on March 31, 2011); and
 
 
in no event shall the loan be repaid by the Company.

On June 1, 2011 the lender surrendered $100,000 of the convertible loan in exchange for 81,161 shares of common stock.

On February 20, 2011, the Company received a tax pre-ruling from the Israeli tax authorities according to section 103 of the Israeli tax law, with regards to the share exchange of the Company's shares and options.  According to the tax pre-ruling, the shares and options exchange will not result in an immediate tax event for the Company's shareholders, but a deferred tax event, subject to certain conditions as stipulated in the tax pre-ruling.  The main condition of the tax pre-ruling is a restriction on the exchanged shares for two years from December 31, 2010 for share holders holding over of 5%.
 
In March 2011, the Company granted a new fixed lien of $40,000 to Bank Mizrahi.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement described in Note 1 above, the Company assumed all of InspireMD Ltd.’s obligations under InspireMD Ltd.’s outstanding stock options.  Immediately prior to the Share Exchange, InspireMD Ltd. had outstanding stock options to purchase an aggregate of 937,256 shares of its ordinary shares, which outstanding options became options to purchase an aggregate of 7,606,770 shares of common stock of the Company after giving effect to the Share Exchange.  In addition, three-year warrants to purchase up to 125,000 ordinary shares of InspireMD at an exercise price of $10 per share were assumed by the Company and converted into warrants to purchase 1,014,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.23 per share.

In connection with the closing of the Exchange Agreement, the Company sold 6,454,002 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $1.50 per share and five-year warrants to purchase up to 3,226,999 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share in a private placement to accredited investors (the “Private Placement”). As part of the Private Placement, certain holders of the 8% convertible debentures, in an aggregate principal amount of $1,580,000 (the “Bridge Notes”), surrendered $667,596 of outstanding principal and interest due under such Bridge Notes in exchange for 445,064 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 225,532 shares of common stock (the “Debt Conversions”). The number of shares of common stock and warrants issued in connection with the Debt Conversions are included in the aggregate figures for the Private Placement. As a result, the Company received aggregate cash proceeds of $9,013,404 in the Private Placement.  In addition, as a result of the Debt Conversions, there was $1,000,000 of unpaid principal outstanding under the Bridge Notes, which was repaid by the Company in May 2011.

 
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company paid placement agent fees of approximately $300,000 and issued five-year warrants to purchase 373,740 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share.  The fair value of the warrant is $212,000.

In connection with the Exchange Agreement, the Company also entered into a stock escrow agreement with certain stockholders, pursuant to which these stockholders deposited 1,015,622 shares of common stock held by them into escrow. These shares will be released to the Company for cancellation or surrender to an entity designated by the Company should the Company have $10 million in consolidated revenue, as certified by the Company’s independent auditors, during the first 12 months following the closing of the Private Placement, yet fail, after a good faith effort, to have the Company’s common stock approved for listing on a national securities exchange. On the other hand, should the Company fail to record at least $10 million in consolidated revenue during the first 12 months following the closing of the Private Placement or have its common stock listed on a national securities exchange within 12 months following the closing on the Private Placement, these escrowed shares shall be released back to the stockholders.
 
The shares of the Company’s common stock issued to the InspireMD shareholders in connection with the Exchange Agreement and the shares of common stock issued to the investors in the Private Placement were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  These securities may not be offered or sold in the U.S. absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.  Certificates representing these shares contain a legend stating the restrictions applicable to such shares.

On March 31, 2011, the Company issued certain consultants five-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share in consideration for consulting services relating to the equity raising transaction, which warrants have a fair value of $1,500,000.  The expenses related to the issuance of the warrants are recorded as share-based compensation and treated as issuance costs.

On April 18, 2011, the Company issued 666,667 shares of its common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000 in a private placement.
