Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Share Purchase Agreement with Oramed
On January 12, 2026, Lifeward Ltd. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Share Purchase Agreement”) with Oramed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Oramed”) and Oratech Pharma, Inc. (“Oratech”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests in Oratech, a wholly owned subsidiary of Oramed (the “Oratech Share Purchase”). Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, and subject to the receipt of shareholder approval, among other customary closing conditions, upon closing of the Oratech Share Purchase (the “Closing”), the Company shall issue to Oramed a number of ordinary shares of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) equal to 49.99% of the Company’s fully diluted equity capitalization, subject to certain adjustments, as of Closing. The number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to Oramed at the Closing pursuant to the preceding sentence will not exceed 45.00% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares as of immediately after the Closing. The Pre-Funded Warrants may not be exercised and Ordinary Shares not be issued under the Pre-Funded Warrants if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance, Oramed together with its affiliates and certain other investors would beneficially own in excess of 49.99% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, subject to increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of the applicable notice) or decrease by Oramed, and, for so long as any of the Company’s outstanding warrants that are outstanding as of the date of issuance remain outstanding, further subject to the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
A number of Pre-Funded Warrants representing approximately 5% of the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants to be issued to Oramed as described in the preceding paragraph shall be held back at the Closing as recourse to satisfy certain indemnification obligations of Oramed under the Share Purchase Agreement and, subject to any forfeiture of Pre-Funded Warrants as a result of indemnification claims made prior to the 12-month anniversary of the Closing, will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement following the 12-month anniversary of the Closing.
In addition to the issuance of Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants to Oramed at the Closing, the Company shall issue to Oramed a number of warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Company’s net cash as of the Closing by an exercise price equal to $0.45 per share, subject to certain adjustments (the “Transaction Warrants”). As additional consideration for the Oratech Share Purchase, the Company has also agreed to pay to Oramed certain quarterly revenue sharing payments (the “Revenue Sharing Payments”) based on sales of the Company’s ReWalk Personal Exoskeleton products and related extended warranties (the “ReWalk Products”). The Revenue Sharing Payments shall be equal to 4% of the Net Revenue (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement) of the ReWalk Products until the earliest to occur of (i) the date that is 10 years after the Closing, (ii) the date on which Oramed has received an aggregate amount of Revenue Sharing Payments equal to the Maximum Amount (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement) or (iii) the first date on which the Company’s market capitalization equals or exceeds $200 million.
Each of the Company and Oramed has agreed to customary representations, warranties, indemnities and covenants in the Share Purchase Agreement, including, among others, covenants relating to (a) obtaining the requisite approval of the Company’s shareholders, (b) non-solicitation of alternative acquisition proposals, (c) the conduct of their respective businesses during the period between the date of signing the Share Purchase Agreement and the Closing, (d) certain regulatory approvals and filings and (e) the Company causing the Ordinary Shares to be issued in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement to be approved for listing on Nasdaq prior to the Closing. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a registration statement on Form S-1 to register the Ordinary Shares to be issued in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Registration Statement”) to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 75 days following the Closing (or within 105 days of the Closing if the SEC notifies the Company that the SEC shall “review” the Registration Statement).
The Share Purchase Agreement has been attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors and securityholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Oramed or Oratech or to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about Oramed in Oramed’s public reports filed with the SEC. The Share Purchase Agreement includes typical representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, Oramed and Oratech made solely for the purpose of the Share Purchase Agreement and solely for the benefit of the parties thereto in connection with the negotiated terms of the Share Purchase Agreement. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the Share Purchase Agreement or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company, Oramed or Oratech or any of their respective affiliates. Moreover, certain of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, may be modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules which are not filed publicly, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to SEC filings or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk among the parties to the Share Purchase Agreement, rather than establishing matters of fact.
Lock-up Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company’s officers and directors and Oramed executed a lock-up agreement whereby any Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to and in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement will be locked up for 120 days post-closing and the Company’s officers and directors will not sell or transfer any securities of the Company currently owned, subject to standard carveouts, for a period of 120 days post-closing.
Clinical Trial Management Agreement
The Clinical Trial Management Agreement sets forth the terms under which Oratech will conduct a clinical research protocol to study an oral insulin capsule.
The foregoing descriptions of the Share Purchase Agreement, Pre-funded Warrants, Transaction Warrants and Lock-up Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, the forms of which are filed as Exhibits 2.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1 respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
Securities Purchase Agreement
In connection with the Share Purchase Agreement, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Oramed and certain investors and Oramed, as collateral agent, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to Oramed and the certain investors senior secured convertible notes convertible into Ordinary Shares and accompanying warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, subject to shareholder approval and the satisfaction of other closing conditions, the Company agreed to issue to these investors (i) (A) $10,000,000.00 aggregate principal amount senior secured convertible notes (the “Initial Notes”), convertible into Ordinary Shares, and (B) accompanying warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares (the “Initial Warrants”); and (ii) (A) $10,000,000.00 aggregate principal amount senior secured convertible notes (the “Second Notes”, and together with the Initial Notes, the “Notes” and each a “Note”), convertible into Ordinary Shares, and (B) accompanying warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares (the “Second Warrants”, and together with the Initial Warrants, the “Common Warrants” and the Common Warrants together with the Transaction Warrants, the “Warrants”). The funding of the Second Notes is also subject to customary closing conditions and either (i) the Company achieving, as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter end for which the Company has publicly filed or furnished financial statements, at least a one hundred fifty percent (150%) increase in ReWalk Unit Sales (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), measured in U.S. dollars, relative to the trailing twelve‑month period immediately preceding the Additional Closing Date as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), or (ii) the closing price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the Trading Market (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) equals or exceeds $1.15 per share (which amount may be adjusted for certain capital events, such as stock splits following the date of the Purchase Agreement) on each Trading Day (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to the Additional Closing Date.
Each Note matures on the three (3) year anniversary from the date of issuance (the “Term”). The principal amount of each Note outstanding plus all accrued and unpaid interest is convertible, at the option of the holder at any time, in whole or in part, into such number of Ordinary Shares (the “Conversion Shares”) at an initial conversion price equal to $0.45 per share, subject to certain adjustments (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to standard adjustments in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events.
The Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 8.0% per annum, which shall automatically be increased to 15.0% per annum in the event of an event of default. Any interest payable on the Notes shall be payable semi‑annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on December 31, 2026, which may be paid in cash, or at the Company’s sole election, may be added to the outstanding principal balance of the applicable Note.
The Notes may not be converted and Ordinary Shares may not be issued under the Notes if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance, Oramed together with its affiliates and certain other investors would beneficially own in excess of 49.99% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, subject to increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of the applicable notice) or decrease by Oramed, and, for so long as any of the Company’s outstanding warrants that are outstanding as of the date of issuance remain outstanding, further subject to the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
The Notes contain customary events of default. If an event of default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the holder of the Note’s election, immediately due and payable in cash.
The Common Warrants will be exercisable for up to an aggregate of 100% of Ordinary Shares (the “Warrant Shares”) that each Note is convertible into as of the issuance date, at an initial exercise price of $0.45 per share, subject to certain adjustments (the “Exercise Price”). Additionally, subject to shareholder approval, the Common Warrants will be exercisable immediately and will expire five years after the date of issuance, and may be exercised on a cashless basis in the event of a fundamental transaction involving the Company or if the resale of the Ordinary Shares underlying the Common Warrants is not covered by an effective registration statement (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use). The Exercise Price is subject to standard adjustments in the event of certain events, such as stock splits, combinations, dividends, distributions, reclassifications, mergers or other corporate changes. The Common Warrants may not be exercised and Ordinary Shares may not be issued under the Common Warrants if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance, Oramed together with its affiliates and certain other investors would beneficially own in excess of 49.99% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, subject to increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of the applicable notice) or decrease by Oramed, and, for so long as any of the Company’s outstanding warrants that are outstanding as of the date of issuance remain outstanding, further subject to the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement to register the Ordinary Shares underlying the Notes and Warrants within 30 days following the closing of the Initial Note, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such additional registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 45 days following such closing (or within 75 days of such closing if the SEC notifies the Company that the SEC shall “review” such additional registration statement).
The offer and sale of the securities in the Notes and Common Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Such offer and sale were made only to “accredited investors” under Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and without any form of general solicitation and with full access to any information requested by such investors regarding the Company or the securities offered and issued in the Notes and Warrants.
This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in the described offering, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
The foregoing descriptions of the Notes and the Common Warrants are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, the forms of which are filed as Exhibits 4.4 and 4.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

2.2 Closing.

The Closing shall be deemed effective as of 12:01 am Eastern Time on the Closing Date (the “Effective Time”).
2.3 Payment of Purchase Price.
(a) In consideration for the purchase of the Purchased Shares from the Seller, Parent shall issue to Seller: (i) a number of Parent Ordinary Shares equal to the Ordinary Share Calculation (the “Consideration Shares”); (ii) a number of Transaction Warrants equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Company Net Cash as of the Determination Time (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5) by (y) the Exercise Price (as such term is defined in the Transaction Warrant); (iii) a number of Pre-Funded Warrants equal to the Pre-Funded Warrant Calculation (provided, that the number of Pre-Funded Warrants to be issued at the Closing shall be reduced by the number of Indemnity Holdback Warrants, which shall be released if, when and as provided for in Section 12); and (iv) the Revenue Sharing Payment described in Section 2.4 (collectively, the “Purchase Price”).^^
(b) The Consideration Shares issued shall not exceed 45.0% of the outstanding Parent Ordinary Shares as of immediately after the Effective Time, rounded down to the next whole Parent Ordinary Share (the “Parent Ordinary Share Consideration Cap”).
(c) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock or Parent Ordinary Shares shall have been changed into, or exchanged for, a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split (including the Split to the extent such split has not previously been taken into account in calculating the number of Consideration Shares and Parent Warrants), combination or exchange of shares or other like change, the number of Consideration Shares and Parent Warrants shall, to the extent necessary, be equitably adjusted to reflect such change so as to provide the Seller with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares or other like change; provided, however, that nothing herein will be construed to permit the Company or Parent to take any action with respect to Company Capital Stock or Parent Ordinary Shares, respectively, that is prohibited or not expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
2.4 Revenue Sharing Payment.
(a) ^^ Parent will pay and Seller will receive 4% of Net Revenue (as defined below) (the “Revenue Sharing Payment”) on a quarterly basis beginning on the Closing Date until the earliest to occur of (i) the date that is 10 years after the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which Seller has received an aggregate amount of Revenue Sharing Payments equal to the Maximum Amount or (iii) the first date on which Parent’s Market Capitalization equals or exceeds $200 million (the “Revenue Sharing Term”), as set forth in this Section 2.4. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) under no circumstances shall Seller be entitled to receive an aggregate amount of Revenue Sharing Payments in excess of the Maximum Amount and (b) Seller shall not be entitled to any further Revenue Sharing Payments following the expiration of the Revenue Sharing Term regardless of whether Seller has received an aggregate amount of Revenue Sharing Payments equal to the Maximum Amount.

(c) During the Revenue Sharing Term , Parent hereby covenants that it will not take any action for the express purpose of depriving Seller of any Revenue Sharing Payments to which Seller may be entitled pursuant this Section 2.4.
(d) During
the Revenue Sharing Term, Parent and its Affiliates shall not transfer or consent to the transfer of any portion of its rights in such Product\(s\) or rights to revenues for such Product\(s\), without the transferee expressly agreeing in writing to

represents as of the Closing Date that no insolvency proceeding of any character, including, without limitation, bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization, composition or arrangement with creditors, voluntary or involuntary, has been commenced by or
against Parent or any Affiliate, nor has any such proceeding been threatened in writing. Parent, as to itself and all Affiliates, does not contemplate and has not taken any action in contemplation of the institution of any such proceeding.
(f) The Revenue Sharing Payment obligations accruing before any termination or expiration shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement and any related agreement(s). The termination or expiration of this Agreement or any related agreement(s), for any reason whatsoever, shall not terminate the obligation of Parent to pay any such vested Revenue Sharing Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, all vested Revenue Sharing Payment are fully earned compensation and irrevocable for any reason once vested, including any perceived or actual breach of this Agreement or related agreement(s).
(g) Seller
will have the right to request an independent, public auditor to conduct an audit no more than once annually of Parent’s records related to the Revenue Sharing Payment due under this Agreement. Such auditor’s report will provide the basis for any
discrepancy. Such audit will be at Seller’s sole expense, unless a discrepancy of more than 5% is uncovered by the audit, in which case Parent will bear the cost. In the event of an underpayment or overpayment of the Revenue Sharing Payment,
Parent or the Company will promptly refund the underpaid or overpaid Revenue Sharing Payment amount as applicable within 30 days of completion of such audit, or in the Parent’s case may apply any overpayment against future Revenue Sharing Payment
due by Parent in lieu of further payment until such overpayment is fully refunded. Under no other circumstances will any refund of any kind be due or paid by either Party.

The Company shall make available to Parent (electronically to the greatest extent possible), as reasonably requested by Parent, the work papers and back-up materials (including all relevant invoices and similar evidence of outstanding obligations) used or useful in preparing the Company Net Cash Schedule and, if reasonably requested by Parent, the Company’s internal finance personnel, accountants and counsel at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.
16
(b) Within eight (8) Business Days after the Delivery Date (the last day of such period, the “Response Date”), Parent shall have the right to dispute any part of the Company Net Cash Calculation by delivering a written notice to that effect to the Company (a “Dispute Notice”). Any Dispute Notice shall identify in reasonable detail and, to the extent known, the nature and amounts of any proposed revisions to the Company Net Cash Calculation.
(c) If, on or prior to the Response Date, Parent notifies the Company in writing that it has no objections to the Company Net Cash Calculation or, if prior to 11:59 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Response Date, Parent fails to deliver a Dispute Notice as provided in Section 2.5(b), then the Company Net Cash Calculation as set forth in the Company Net Cash Schedule shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Company Net Cash at the Cash Determination Time (the “Final Company Net Cash”) for purposes of this Agreement.
(d) If Parent delivers a Dispute Notice on or prior to 11:59 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Response Date, then Representatives of the Company and Parent shall promptly, and in no event later than one (1) calendar day after the Response Date, communicate and attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed item(s) and negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Company Net Cash, which agreed upon Company Net Cash amount (if so resolved) shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Final Company Net Cash for purposes of this Agreement.
(e) If Representatives of the Company and Parent are unable to resolve the disputed items pursuant to Section 2.5(d) within three (3) calendar days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (or such other period as the Company and Parent may mutually agree upon), then any remaining disagreements as to the calculation of Company Net Cash shall be referred to an independent auditor of recognized national standing jointly selected by the Company and Parent (provided that if the parties are unable to select an independent auditor within five (5) days, then either the Company or Parent may thereafter request that the New York, NY office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) make such selection (either the independent auditor jointly selected by both parties or such independent auditor selected by the AAA, the “Accounting Firm”)).
The Company shall promptly deliver to the Accounting Firm all work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the Company Net Cash Schedule, and the Company and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to
make its determination within five \(5\) calendar days of accepting its selection. The Company and Parent shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues
with the Accounting Firm; provided, however, that no such
presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a Representative of each of the Company and Parent. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be limited to the disagreements submitted to the Accounting Firm. The determination
of the amount of Company Net Cash made by the Accounting Firm shall be made in writing delivered to each of the Company and Parent, shall be final and binding on the Company and Parent and shall \(absent manifest error\) be deemed to have been
finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Final Company Net Cash for purposes of this Agreement. The parties shall delay the Closing until the resolution of the matters described in this Section 2.5\(e\). The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between the Company and Parent in the same proportion that the disputed amount of the Company Net Cash
that was unsuccessfully disputed amount by such party \(as finally determined by the Accounting Firm\) bears to the total disputed amount of the Company Net Cash amount and such portion of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm borne by Parent
and any other fees, costs or expenses incurred by Parent following the Anticipated Closing Date in connection with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.5\(e\)
shall be deducted from the final determination of the amount of Company Net Cash, to the extent of available amounts. If this Section 2.5\(e\) applies as to
the determination of the Final Company Net Cash described in Section 2.5\(a\), upon resolution of the matter in accordance with this Section 2.5\(e\), the parties shall not be required to determine the Company Net Cash again even though the Closing Date may occur later than the Anticipated Meeting Date.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Company shall redetermine the Final Company Net Cash if the Closing Date is more than ten \(10\) calendar days after the Anticipated Meeting Date.

54
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this Section 6.3, no access or examination contemplated by this Section 6.3 shall be permitted to the extent that it would require any Party or its Subsidiaries to waive the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product privilege, or violate any applicable Law; provided, that such Party or its Subsidiary (i) shall be entitled to withhold only such information that may not be provided without causing such violation or waiver, (ii) shall provide to the other Party all related information that may be provided without causing such violation or waiver (including, to the extent permitted, redacted versions of any such information) and (iii) shall enter into such effective and appropriate joint-defense agreements or other protective arrangements as may be reasonably requested by the other Party in order that all such information may be provided to the other Party without causing such violation or waiver.

(b) If any Party or any Representative of such Party receives an Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry at any time during the Pre-Closing Period, then such Party shall promptly (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such Party becomes aware of such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry) advise the other Party in writing of such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, and the terms thereof).

No such notice shall be deemed to supplement or amend the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter for the purpose of (x) determining the accuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by Seller and the Company in this Agreement or (y) determining whether any condition set forth in Section 8, Section 9 or Section 10 has been satisfied. Any failure by either Party to provide notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall not be deemed to be a breach for purposes of Section 9.2 or Section 10.2, as applicable, unless such failure to provide such notice was knowing and intentional.
55
6.6 Certain Other Matters. During the Pre-Closing Period, Parent shall take the actions set forth on Section 6.6 of the Parent Disclosure Letter.
Section 7. Additional Agreements of the Parties.
7.1 SEC Filings.
(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement relating to the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting to be held in connection with the Parent Shareholder Matters (together with any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”). Parent shall (i) cause the Proxy Statement to comply with applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC in all material respects and (ii) respond promptly to any comments or requests of the SEC or its staff related to the Proxy Statement.
(b) Parent covenants and agrees that the Proxy Statement (and the letters to shareholders, notice of meeting and form of proxy included therewith) will (i) comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of applicable U.S. federal securities Laws and the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”), and (ii) not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company covenants and agrees that the information supplied by or on behalf of the Company to Parent for inclusion in the Proxy Statement will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party makes any covenant, representation or warranty with respect to statements made in the Proxy Statement (and the letter to stockholders, notice of meeting and form of proxy included therewith), if any, based on information provided by the other Party or any of its Representatives regarding such other Party or its Affiliates for inclusion therein.
(c) Parent
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to Parent’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the Proxy Statement has been filed with the SEC and either \(i\) the SEC has indicated that it does not
intend to review the Proxy Statement or that its review of the Proxy Statement has been completed or \(ii\) at least ten \(10\) days shall have passed since the Proxy Statement was filed with the SEC without receiving any correspondence from the SEC
commenting upon, or indicating that it intends to review, the Proxy Statement, all in compliance with applicable U.S. federal securities laws and the Companies Law. If Parent \(A\) becomes aware of any event or information that, pursuant to the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act, should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, or \(B\) receives notice of any SEC request for an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or for additional information related
thereto.
56
(d) As soon as practicable (and in any event within seventy five (75) calendar days of the Closing Date), Parent shall file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form) (the “Registration Statement”), if available, or if not available, a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any successor form) for use by Parent, with respect to the Consideration Shares and Parent Warrant Shares, to the extent necessary to register such shares for resale under the Securities Act. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date (or in the event of a full review by the Commission, one hundred and five (105) days following the Closing Date).
(e) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to Parent (i) audited financial statements for each of its fiscal years required to be included in the Registration Statement, or an audited period balance sheet, as applicable (the “Company Audited Financial Statements”) and (ii) unaudited interim financial statements for each interim period completed prior to Closing that would be required to be included in the Registration Statement or any periodic report due prior to the Closing if the Company were subject to the periodic reporting requirements under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (the “Company Interim Financial Statements”). Each of the Company Audited Financial Statements and the Company Interim Financial Statements will be suitable for inclusion in the Registration Statement and prepared in accordance with GAAP as applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except in each case as described in the notes thereto) and on that basis will present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and the results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company as of the dates of and for the periods referred to in the Company Audited Financial Statements or the Company Interim Financial Statements, as the case may be.
(f) Seller shall cooperate with Parent and provide, and cause its Representatives to provide, Parent and its Representatives, with all true, correct and complete information regarding the Company that is required by Law to be included in the Registration Statement or reasonably requested by Parent to be included in the Registration Statement (collectively, the “Company Required S-3 Information”). Without limiting the foregoing, Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered to Parent a consent letter of the Company’s or Seller’s independent accounting firm, dated no more than two (2) Business Days before the date on which the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC (and reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent), that is customary in scope and substance for consent letters delivered by independent public accountants in connection with registration statements similar to the Registration Statement.
7.2 Parent Shareholder Meeting.
(a) As promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall take all action necessary under applicable Law to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the shareholders of the Parent for the purpose of seeking such approval as may be required by (i) the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or any successor entity) from the shareholders of the Parent with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of all of Ordinary Shares, including the Consideration Shares and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Parent Warrants (the “Parent Warrant Shares”) in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares on the Closing Date, and (ii) the Companies Law in order to avoid the need for the Seller to conduct a “special tender offer” under the Companies Law (collectively, “Parent Shareholder Matters,” and such meeting, the “Parent Shareholders’ Meeting”).
57
(b) Parent
agrees to use reasonable best efforts to call and hold the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting as soon as practicable after the date hereof. If the approval of the Parent Shareholder Matters is not obtained at the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting or if on a
date preceding the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, Parent reasonably believes that \(i\) it will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain the approval of the Parent Shareholder Matters, whether or not quorum would be present or \(ii\) it will not have
sufficient Parent Ordinary Shares represented \(whether in person or by proxy\) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, then, in each case, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to adjourn
the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting one or more times to a date or dates no more than thirty \(30\) calendar days after the scheduled date for such Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, and to obtain such Parent Shareholder Matters at such time. If the Parent
Shareholders’ Meeting is not so adjourned, and/or if the approval of the Parent Shareholder Matters is not then obtained, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such approvals as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any event to
obtain such approvals at the next occurring annual meeting of the shareholders of Parent or, if such annual meeting is not scheduled to be held within four months after the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, a special meeting of the shareholders of
Parent to be held within four \(4\) months after the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting. Parent will hold an annual meeting or special meeting of its shareholders, at which a vote of the shareholders of Parent to approve the Parent Shareholder Matters will
be solicited and taken, at least once every four \(4\) months until Parent obtains approval of the Parent Shareholder Matters.
(c) Parent agrees that: (i) the Parent Board shall recommend that the holders of Parent Ordinary Shares vote to approve the Parent Shareholder Matters and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit and obtain such approval within the time frames set forth in Section 7.2(b), and (ii) the Proxy Statement (as defined herein) shall include a statement to the effect that the Parent Board recommends that the Parent’s shareholders vote to approve the Parent Shareholder Matters.
(d) The Company and Parent acknowledge that, under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Consideration Shares or Parent Warrant Shares will not be entitled to vote on the Parent Shareholder Matters.
7.3 Efforts; Regulatory Approvals.
(a) The Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to consummate the Contemplated Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party: (i) shall make all filings and other submissions (if any) and give all notices (if any) required to be made and given by such Party in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, (ii) shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain each Consent (if any) reasonably required to be obtained (pursuant to any applicable Law or Contract, or otherwise) by such Party in connection with the Contemplated Transactions or for such Contract to remain in full force and effect, (iii) shall use reasonable best efforts to lift any injunction prohibiting, or any other legal bar to, the Contemplated Transactions and (iv) shall use reasonable best efforts to satisfy the conditions precedent to the consummation of this Agreement. In addition, as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Seller shall deliver to Parent a duly completed and executed Undertaking in the standard form of the IIA in form and substance acceptable to Parent.
(b) Notwithstanding
the generality of the foregoing, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to file or otherwise submit, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, all applications, notices, reports and other documents reasonably required to be
filed by such Party with or otherwise submitted by such Party to any Governmental Authority with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, and to submit promptly any additional information requested by any such Governmental Authority. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties shall prepare and file, if required, any notification or other document required to be filed in connection with the Contemplated Transactions under any applicable foreign Law relating to
antitrust or competition matters, and take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to obtain the expiration or termination of any antitrust Laws as promptly as practicable, and thereafter to respond as promptly as practicable to any request
for additional information or documentary material that may be made under any applicable U.S. or foreign Law relating to antitrust or competition matters; and use their reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are necessary or advisable to
obtain prompt approval of the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions by any Governmental Authority or expiration of applicable waiting periods.
58
(c) Each Party shall, in connection with its efforts to obtain all requisite approvals and the expiration or termination of waiting periods for the Contemplated Transactions under any applicable Law relating to antitrust matters, use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) cooperate in all respects with each other Party or its affiliates in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private Person; (ii) keep the other Parties reasonably informed of any communication received by such Party from, or given by such Party to, any Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, in each case regarding any of the Contemplated Transactions, and promptly furnish the other Parties with copies of all such written communications; (iii) permit the other Parties to review in advance any written communication to be given by it to, and consult with the other Parties in advance of any meeting or video or telephonic conference with, any Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority or other Person, give the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate in such in-person, video, or telephonic meetings and conferences; (iv) in the event a Party is prohibited from participating in or attending any in-person, video, or telephonic meetings or conferences, the other Parties shall keep such Party promptly and reasonably apprised with respect thereto; and (v) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in the filing of any memoranda, white papers, filings, correspondence or other written communications explaining or defending the Contemplated Transactions, articulating any regulatory or competitive argument, and/or responding to requests or objections made by any Governmental Authority; provided that materials required to be provided pursuant to this Section 7.4(c) may be restricted to outside counsel and may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (B) to address legal privilege or confidentiality concerns, and (C) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements.
(d) None of the Company, Seller or Parent shall take any action that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect or materially delay the approval of any Governmental Authority, or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under applicable Law, including by agreeing to merge with or acquire any other Person or acquire a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in any other Person. Each of the Company, Seller and Parent covenants and agrees, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or any other order, decree, ruling, statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the Parties to consummate the Contemplated Transactions, to use reasonable best efforts to prevent or lift the entry, enactment, or promulgation thereof, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of Parent or any of its respective Affiliates shall be required to defend, contest, or resist any action or proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, or to take any action to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any Order, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
59
(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall give the Company prompt written notice (email being sufficient) of any litigation against Parent and/or its directors relating to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions (“Transaction Litigation”) (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto) and keep the Company reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. Parent will (i) give the Company the opportunity to participate in, but not control, the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege is not undermined or otherwise adversely affected; provided that Parent and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to find alternative solutions to not undermine or adversely affect the privilege such as entering into common interest agreements, joint defense agreements or similar agreements), (ii) consult with the Company with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation and (iii) consider in good faith the Company’s advice with respect to such Transaction Litigation.

For purposes of computing the amount of any Damages payable to Parent under this Section 12, such Damages shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of any insurance proceeds, indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by Parent or any of its Affiliates, including under any insurance policy of the Company in effect as of the Closing (net of actual out-of-pocket costs of recovery or enforcement, deductibles and retro-premium adjustments) in connection with such Damages or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto.
(f) Exclusive Remedy. This Section 12 constitutes the exclusive remedy after the Closing for recovery of Damages or other claims by Parent relating to or arising from this Agreement, including in any schedule or certificate delivered hereunder; provided that nothing herein shall limit the rights or remedies of Parent with respect to specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable relief in accordance with Section 13.10, or in respect of any claim for fraud against the Seller, the Company or any of their respective Representatives.
12.4 No Contribution. The Seller waives, and acknowledges and agrees that the Seller shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or advancement of expenses or other right or remedy against the Company in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which the Seller may become subject pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
12.5 Defense of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against the Company, Parent or any other Person) with respect to which the Seller may become obligated to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate or reimburse Parent pursuant to Section 12.2(a), Seller shall have the right to proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Parent. If Seller so proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding:
(a) Seller
shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding with the consent of Parent \(which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed\);
(b) Seller
shall keep the Parent advised of and shall consult with the Parent in good faith the status of such claim or Legal Proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Parent with respect thereto; and
(c) the Parent shall be entitled, at the Parent’s expense, to participate in the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding.
Parent shall give the Seller prompt notice of (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after becoming aware of such claim or Legal Proceeding) (a) any third party claim, including any action or proceeding commenced or threated to be commenced by any third party which Parent reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 12 and (b) the commencement of any such Legal Proceeding against Parent or the Company by any third party which Parent reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 12, along with (to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) copies of any documentation submitted by the third party making such claim or commencement such Legal Proceeding and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by Parent) the facts constituting the basis for such claim or Legal Proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages sought by such third party; provided, however, that any failure on the part of Parent to so notify the Seller shall not limit any of the obligations of the Seller under this Section 12 (except to the extent the Seller is materially prejudiced as a result thereof). If Seller does not elect to proceed with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding, the Parent may proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Seller; provided, however, that the Parent may not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim or Legal Proceeding without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
70
12.6 Indemnification Claim Procedure. Any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement by the Seller pursuant to this Section 12 (whether or not related to a claim or Legal Proceeding asserted or commenced by a third party) shall be brought and resolved exclusively as follows:
(a) Notice of Claim. If Parent has incurred, paid, accrued, reserved or suffered Damages for which it is or may be entitled to be held harmless, indemnified, compensated or reimbursed under this Section 12., Parent shall deliver a notice of claim (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Seller. Each Notice of Claim shall: (i) contain a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting Parent’s claim, including the basis for which Parent reasonably believes it is entitled to indemnification under this Section 12; and (ii) contain a good faith, non-binding, preliminary calculation of the total dollar amount of Damages to which Parent might be entitled to indemnification under this Section 12, and to the extent practicable, a line item for each calculated amount of such Damages described in reasonable detail (the aggregate amount of such estimate, as it may be modified by Parent from time to time, so long as Parent provides the Seller with written notice of such updated or modified estimate, being referred to as the “Claimed Amount”).
(b) Dispute Procedure. During the thirty (30)-day period commencing upon delivery by Parent to the Seller of a Notice of Claim (unless such Notice of Claim has been amended or updated by Parent, in which case, during the thirty (30)-day period commencing upon delivery of such amended or updated Notice of Claim (the “Dispute
Period”\), the Seller may deliver to Parent a written response \(the “Response Notice”\) in which the Seller: \(i\) agrees that the full
calculated Claimed Amount is owed to Parent; \(ii\) agrees that part, but not all, of the calculated Claimed Amount \(the “Agreed Amount”\) is owed
to Parent; or \(iii\) states that no part of the calculated Claimed Amount is owed to Parent. If the Response Notice is delivered in accordance with clause “\(ii\)” or clause “\(iii\)” of the preceding sentence, such Response Notice shall also contain,
to the extent practicable, a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting the Seller’s claim that only a portion or no part of the calculated Claimed Amount is owed to Parent, as the case may be. Any part of the Claimed Amount that
is not agreed to be owed to Parent pursuant to the Response Notice, including any calculations contained therein \(or the entire Claimed Amount, if the Seller asserts in the Response Notice that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to Parent\) is
referred to in this Agreement as the “Contested Amount” \(it being understood that the Contested Amount shall be modified from time to time to
reflect any modifications by Parent to the Claimed Amount, so long as the Seller provides Parent with written notice of such updated or modified estimate\). If a Response Notice is not received by Parent prior to the expiration of the Dispute
Period, then the Seller shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the full Claimed Amount is owed to Parent.
(c) Payment of Claimed Amount. If: (i) the Seller delivers a Response Notice to Parent agreeing that the full Claimed Amount is owed to Parent; or (ii) the Seller does not deliver a Response Notice to Parent prior to or on the expiration date of the Dispute Period, then, subject to the limitations contained in this Section 12: (A) the number of Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants shall be reduced by a number of Pre-Funded Warrants having an aggregate value equal to (1) the amount of Damages set forth in the Claimed Amount divided by (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date, and the Seller shall permanently forfeit any right to receive any such portion of the Indemnity Holdback Warrants; and (B) if the aggregate value of the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants (as determined by dividing (1) the amount of Damages set forth in the Claimed Amount and (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date) is insufficient to cover the full Claimed Amount, then, subject to the limitations provided for in this Section 9, Parent shall seek recourse for such shortfall in accordance with Section 12.7.
71
(d) Payment of Agreed Amount. If the Seller delivers a Response Notice to Parent prior to or on the expiration date of the Dispute Period agreeing that less than the full Claimed Amount is owed to Parent, then, subject to the limitations contained in this Section 12: (i) the number of Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants shall be reduced by a number of Pre-Funded Warrants having an aggregate value equal to (1) the amount of Damages agreed to by the Seller in the Response Notice divided by (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date and the Seller shall permanently forfeit any right to receive any such portion of the Indemnity Holdback Warrants; and (ii) if the aggregate value of the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants (as determined by dividing (1) the amount of Damages set forth in the Claimed Amount and (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date) is insufficient to cover the full Claimed Amount, then, subject to the limitations provided for in this Section 12, Parent shall seek recourse for such shortfall in accordance with Section 12.7.
(e) Resolution Between the Parties. If the Seller delivers a Response Notice to Parent prior to or on the expiration date of the Dispute Period indicating that there is a Contested Amount, the Seller and Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute related to the Contested Amount. If Parent and the Seller resolve such dispute, then their resolution of such dispute shall be binding on the Seller, the Seller and Parent and a settlement agreement stipulating the amount owed to Parent (the “Stipulated Amount”) shall be signed by Parent and the Seller. Following the execution of such settlement agreement and subject to the limitations contained in this Section 12: (i) the number of Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants shall be reduced by a number of Pre-Funded Warrants having an aggregate value equal to (1) the Stipulated Amount divided by (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date and the Seller shall permanently forfeit any right to receive any such portion of the Indemnity Holdback Warrants; and (ii) if the aggregate value of the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants (as determined by dividing (1) the amount of Damages set forth in the Claimed Amount and (2) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date) is insufficient to cover the full Claimed Amount, then, subject to the limitations provided for in this Section 12, Parent shall seek recourse for such shortfall in accordance with Section 12.7.
(f) Dispute Resolution. If the Seller and Parent are unable to resolve the dispute relating to any Contested Amount during the thirty (30)-day period commencing upon the delivery of the Response Notice to Parent, then each of the Seller and Parent may take action to resolve the objection in accordance with Section 13.8.
(g) Recourse to Indemnity Holdback Warrants. Promptly after the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date (and in any event within five (5) Business days following the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date), Parent shall notify the Seller in writing of the amount that Parent determines in good faith to be necessary to satisfy all claims made by Parent pursuant to Section 12.2(a) that have been timely asserted pursuant to a Notice of Claim delivered in accordance with this Section
12.6, but not fully and finally resolved on or prior to the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date in accordance with this Section 12.6 \(such
unresolved claims being referred to as the “Unresolved Claims” and such aggregate amount being referred to as the “Retained Indemnity Holdback Warrants”\). Within five \(5\) Business Days after the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date, Parent shall issue to the Seller a Pre-Funded Warrant
covering a number of Indemnity Holdback Warrants equal to the amount, if any, by which the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants \(after giving effect to any forfeiture thereof pursuant to Sections 12.6\(c\), \(d\) and \(e\)\) as of the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date exceeds the
number of Retained Indemnity Holdback Warrants.
72
(h) Resolution of Unresolved Claims. Following the Indemnity Holdback Issuance Date, if an Unresolved Claim is finally resolved between Parent and the Seller in accordance with Section 12.6(e) or Section 12.6(f), then Parent shall, within five (5) Business Days after the final resolution of such Unresolved Claim, issue to the Seller a number of Pre-Funded Warrants representing a number of Indemnity Holdback Warrants equal to the amount, if any, by which the number of Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants as of the time of such disbursement exceeds the then-remaining number of Retained Indemnity Holdback Warrants.
12.7 Sources

(a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein other than the limitations set forth in Section 12.3 and subject to the other limitations contained in this Section 12, in the event that Parent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, after such amounts are finally resolved and

(i) With respect to any claim for indemnification arising out of Section 12.2(a)(i) with respect to any representation or warranty of the Company other than any Company Fundamental Representation, solely by reducing the number of Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants by a number of Pre-Funded Warrants having an aggregate value equal to (A) the amount of Damages suffered by Parent calculated pursuant to this Section 12 and (B) the Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date, until all such Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants are exhausted (and the Seller shall permanently forfeit any right to receive any such portion of the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants);
(ii) With respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(i) with respect to any Company Fundamental Representation or pursuant to Sections 12.2(a)(ii), solely from the following sources and in the following order:

(B) second, if and only to the extent that the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants are exhausted or if the Seller otherwise elects to pay the full amount in cash, directly against the Seller and subject to Section 12.3(c); and
(iii) With respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Sections 12.2(a)(iii) through (v), any one or a combination of the following sources at Parent’s option:

exhausted \(and the Seller shall permanently forfeit any right to receive any such portion of the Remaining Available Indemnity Holdback Warrants\); and
73

No failure on the part of any Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.
(b) No Party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Party and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

This Agreement and the other schedules, exhibits, certificates, instruments and agreements referred to in this Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms;. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by all Parties by facsimile or electronic transmission in PDF format shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

13.8 Severability.

Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in state court of Delaware or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and each of the Parties waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Each of the Parties further agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.
13.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the Parties and the D&O Indemnified Parties to the extent of their respective rights pursuant to Section 7.4) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

PRE-FUNDED ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT
LIFEWARD LTD.
| Warrant Shares: _______ | Initial Exercise Date: [_______] |
|---|
THIS PRE-FUNDED ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, [ ] or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date set forth above (the “Initial Exercise Date”) until this Warrant is exercised in full (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Lifeward Ltd., an Israeli company (the “Company”), up to [ ] shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Ordinary Shares. The purchase price of one Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated January 12, 2026, among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein), in each case following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise Price. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company on or prior to the Initial Exercise Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever, including in the event this Warrant shall not have been exercised prior to the Termination Date. The exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $0.0001, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
2
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Ordinary Shares for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or the OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”) is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Open Market (“Pink
Market”\) operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. \(or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices\), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or \(d\) in all other cases, the fair market value of an
Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by
the Company.
“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Market operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
| d) | Mechanics of Exercise. |
|---|
i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate or a book-entry certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3^rd^) Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.
4
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Ordinary Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
5
v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round down to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

| e) | Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The<br> Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after<br> exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing<br> sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such<br> determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or<br> Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Ordinary Share Equivalents) subject to a limitation on<br> conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e),<br> beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder<br> that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this<br> Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable<br> shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder<br> together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the<br> accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and<br> the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding<br> Ordinary Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company<br> or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary<br> Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates<br> or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”<br> shall be 45.0% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that following the date on which (i) the Other<br> Purchasers (as defined in the Other Purchase Agreement) no longer hold any Other Notes, and (ii) the Other Purchasers have sold all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Other Notes (as defined in the Other<br> Purchase Agreement) and all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (as defined in the Other Purchase Agreement) held by the Other Purchasers, such Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall automatically increase<br> to 49.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Warrant. The Holder may, upon notice to the Company and, for so long as any of the<br> Company’s warrants as of the Initial Exercise Date remain outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, may increase or decrease the Beneficial<br> Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e); provided, however, that (i) any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61^st^ day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and<br> (ii) the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be increased if (x) any Other Notes are outstanding and held by an Other Purchaser, (y) all of the Other Notes Shares have not been sold by the Other Purchasers, and (z) all of the<br> Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants initially issued to the Other Purchasers have not been sold. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict<br> conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements<br> necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. |

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Share Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of Ordinary Shares any shares of share capital of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re‑classification.
b) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Ordinary Share Equivalents or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, shares, or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
8
d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Ordinary Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction payable in either, at the option of the Company, cash, Ordinary Shares or the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion) that is being offered and paid to the holders of the Ordinary Shares of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, shares or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of the Ordinary Shares are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Ordinary Shares of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Ordinary Shares will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of (1) the 100 day volatility or (2) the volatility of 100%, each of clauses (1)-(2) as obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(d), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of share capital of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such share capital (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such share capital, such number of share capital and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(d) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized Ordinary Shares for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Holder acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 12, 2026, by and among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto (the “Other Purchase Agreement” and the transactions contemplated thereby, the “Current Transaction”) and related transaction documentation shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction for any purpose under this Warrant, and no rights, remedies, or obligations that would otherwise arise upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction shall be triggered by or in connection with the consummation of the Current Transaction. Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transaction, action, election, or arrangement initiated, proposed, directed, or otherwise caused by, or at the direction of, Oramed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Oramed”) shall constitute, or be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction, and no Fundamental Transaction shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of any voluntary act or omission of Oramed. For the avoidance of doubt, a Fundamental Transaction shall only be deemed to occur upon the consummation of a transaction undertaken by the Company or a third party independent of Oramed, and not as a result of any designation, characterization, or contractual right exercised by Oramed.
9
e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
f) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share capital of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares are converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Ordinary Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
10
g) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time after June 26, 2026 through the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
11
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, comply with the provisions of Section 5.7 of the Purchase Agreement.
e) Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any share certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or share certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or share certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or share certificate.

c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.
d) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its articles of association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
13
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Ordinary Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
14
l) Amendment. Other than Section 2(e) and this Section 5(l), which may not be modified, amended or waived, this Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand.
m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT
LIFEWARD LTD.
| Warrant Shares: _______ | Initial Exercise Date: [_______] |
|---|
THIS ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, [ ] or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date set forth above (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on [______________]^1^ (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Lifeward Ltd., an Israeli company (the “Company”), up to [ ] shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Ordinary Shares. The purchase price of one Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated January 12, 2026, among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein), in each case following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No
ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee \(or other type of guarantee or notarization\) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be
required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the
Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant
Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records
showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one \(1\) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares
hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
^1^ Insert the date that is the five (5) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, provided that, if such date is not a Trading Day, insert the immediately following Trading Day.
b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $[_____]^2^, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”)
as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two \(2\) hours thereafter \(including until two \(2\) hours after
the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day\) pursuant to Section 2\(a\) hereof or \(iii\) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both
executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2\(a\) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
^2^ To equal $0.45 per share (subject to Section 4.13(b) of the Purchase Agreement).
2
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Ordinary Shares for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or the OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”) is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Open Market (“Pink Market”) operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Market operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
3
If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
| d) | Mechanics of Exercise. |
|---|
i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate or a book-entry certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3^rd^) Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.
4
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Ordinary Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
5
v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round down to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
| e) | Holder’s Exercise Limitations. <br> The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after<br> exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing<br> sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination<br> is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties<br> and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Ordinary Share Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise<br> analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be<br> calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in<br> compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the<br> determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole<br> discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates<br> and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In<br> addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Company shall have no obligation<br> to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reflected in (A) the<br> Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the<br> number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the<br> number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of<br> which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 45.0% of the number of Ordinary Shares<br> outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that following the date on which (i) the Other Purchasers no longer hold any Other Notes, and (ii)<br> the Other Purchasers have sold (x) all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Other Notes and (y) all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by the Other Purchasers, such<br> Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall automatically increase to 49.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The<br> Holder may, upon notice to the Company and, for so long as any of the Company’s warrants as of the Initial Exercise Date remain outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably<br> withheld, conditioned or delayed, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e); provided, however, that (i) any<br> increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61^st^ day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) the<br> Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be increased if (x) any Other Notes are outstanding and held by an Other Purchaser, (y) all of the Other Notes Shares have not been sold by the Other Purchasers, and (z) all of the Ordinary<br> Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants initially issued to the Other Purchasers have not been sold. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict<br> conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements<br> necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. |

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Share Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of Ordinary Shares any shares of share capital of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re‑classification.
b) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Ordinary Share Equivalents or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, shares, or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Ordinary Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction payable in either, at the option of the Company, cash, Ordinary Shares or the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion) that is being offered and paid to the holders of the Ordinary Shares of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, shares or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of the Ordinary Shares are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Ordinary Shares of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Ordinary Shares will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of (1) the 100 day volatility or (2) the volatility of 100%, each of clauses (1)-(2) as obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(d), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of share capital of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such share capital (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such share capital, such number of share capital and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(d) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized Ordinary Shares for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Holder acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Oratech Purchase Agreement”), dated as of January 12, 2026, by and among the Company, Oratech Pharma, Inc. and Oramed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Current Transaction”) and related transaction documentation, including the execution of the Oratech Purchase Agreement and documentation related thereto, shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction for any purpose under this Warrant, and no rights, remedies, or obligations that would otherwise arise upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction shall be triggered by or in connection with the consummation of the Current Transaction. Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transaction, action, election, or arrangement initiated, proposed, directed, or otherwise caused by, or at the direction of, Oramed shall constitute, or be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction, and no Fundamental Transaction shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of any voluntary act or omission of Oramed. For the avoidance of doubt, a Fundamental Transaction shall only be deemed to occur upon the consummation of a transaction undertaken by the Company or a third party independent of Oramed, and not as a result of any designation, characterization, or contractual right exercised by Oramed..

e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
f) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share capital of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares are converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Ordinary Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
9
g) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time after June 26, 2026 through the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
10
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, comply with the provisions of Section 5.7 of the Purchase Agreement.
e) Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any share certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or share certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or share certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or share certificate.
11
c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.
d) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its articles of association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
12
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Ordinary Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
l) Amendment. Other than Section 2(e) and this Section 5(l), which may not be modified, amended or waived, this Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand. Additionally, any waiver to any of the Warrants by the Required Holder, or any amendment to the Warrants as agreed upon in writing by the Company and the Required Holder, shall automatically apply to this Warrant.
m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

On each Interest Payment Date, the Company may, at its sole election, (i) pay the Interest Payment Amount in cash, or (ii) elect to have such Interest Payment Amount added to the outstanding principal balance of this Note, in which case, such Interest Payment Amount shall thereafter be deemed principal for all purposes hereunder.

| Section 4. | Conversion. |
|---|
(a) Voluntary Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Note is no longer outstanding, this Note, and at the sole option of the Holder, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into Ordinary Shares at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(d)). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Note, plus, at the option of the Holder, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be converted, and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted in which case the Holder shall surrender this Note as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such conversion without delaying the Company’s obligation to deliver the shares on the Share Delivery Date. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
7
(b) Conversion Price. The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $[ ]^2^, subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “Conversion Price”).
(c) Mechanics of Conversion.
(i) Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted plus, at the option of the Holder, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Conversion Amount”) by (y) the Conversion Price.
(ii) Delivery of Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. Not later than the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or book entry statement representing the Conversion Shares to be acquired upon conversion of this Note, which, following the Legend Removal Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase Agreement) and (B) plus, if the Holder has not elected to include accrued and unpaid interest in the Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 4(c)(i) above, a certified check (or wire transfer) in the amount of such accrued and unpaid interest. Except in the case of any certificate or book entry statement bearing a restrictive legend, all Conversion Shares required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4(c) shall be delivered electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions. If the Conversion Date is prior to the Legend Removal Date, then the Conversion Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in the following form, as appropriate:
“THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”
^2^ To Equal $0.45 per share (subject to Section 4.13(b) of the Purchase Agreement).
8
As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Conversion.
(iii) Failure to Deliver Conversion Shares. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such Conversion Shares are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such Conversion Shares, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Conversion Shares issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.
(iv) Obligation Absolute. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon), the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares required to be delivered hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or book entry statement pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
9
(v) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such Conversion Shares by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Note in a principal amount equal to the principal amount (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(c)(ii). For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Note with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
10
(vi) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Notes), not less than 100% of such aggregate number of Ordinary Shares as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the then outstanding principal amount of this Note (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) at the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Required Reserve Amount”).
The Company covenants that all Ordinary Shares that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. If, notwithstanding this Section 4\(c\)\(vi\), and not in limitation thereof, at any time while
any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Ordinary Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve the Required Reserve Amount \(an “Authorized Share Failure”\), then the Company
shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Ordinary Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for all the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty \(60\) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of
its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized Ordinary Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its
shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized Ordinary Shares and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such time of an Authorized Share
Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares to approve the increase in the number of authorized Ordinary Shares, the Company may satisfy this obligation by
obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C.
11
(vii) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round down to the next whole share.
(viii) Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Note so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.
(d) Holder’s Conversion Limitations. The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Note (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Additional Notes, Initial Warrants or Additional Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(d) applies, the determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which principal amount (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) of this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates or Attribution Parties) and which principal amount (plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) of this Note is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4(d), in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of Ordinary Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, the Additional Notes, the Initial Warrants, the Additional Warrants, and ordinary share purchase warrants issued pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 45.0% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note; provided, however, that following the date on which (i) the Other Purchasers no longer hold any Other Notes, and (ii) the Other Purchasers have sold all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Other Notes (the “Other Notes Shares”) and all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by the Other Purchasers, such Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall automatically increase to 49.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Holder may, upon notice to the Company and, for so long as any of the Company’s warrants that are outstanding as of the Original Issue Date remain outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61^st^) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st^) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder, and (iii) the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be increased if (x) any Other Notes are outstanding and held by an Other Purchaser, (y) all of the Other Notes Shares have not been sold by the Other Purchasers, and (z) all of the shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants initially issued to the Other Purchasers have not been sold. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.
12
(e) [Reserved.]
(f) Holder of Record of Conversion Shares. The Person in whose name any Conversion Share is issuable or deliverable upon conversion of this Note will be deemed for all corporate purposes to hold such share as of the close of business on the date of receipt by such Person of the Conversion Shares for such conversion.
| Section 5. | Certain Adjustments. |
|---|---|
| (a) Share Dividends and Share Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise makes a<br> distribution or distributions payable in Ordinary Shares on Ordinary Shares or any Ordinary Share Equivalents (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon conversion of the Notes),<br> (ii) subdivides outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a<br> reclassification of Ordinary Shares, any shares of the share capital of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding any treasury shares of<br> the Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective<br> immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re<br> classification. | |
| --- | |
| (b) Reserved. | |
| --- | |
| (c) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any<br> Ordinary Share Equivalents or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares, as a class (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to<br> acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without<br> regard to any limitations on conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and assuming for such purpose that the Note was converted at the Conversion Price as of the applicable record date)<br> immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant,<br> issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then<br> the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held<br> in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). | |

During such time as this Note is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its<br> assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend,<br> spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to<br> participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on<br> conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of<br> Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the<br> Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the<br> portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). |
|---|
| (e) Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall<br> promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. |

If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary<br> Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for<br> or purchase any shares of the share capital of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to<br> which the Company (and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares are converted into<br> other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office<br> or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Note, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Note Register, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record<br> or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which<br> the holders of the Ordinary Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share<br> exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable<br> upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action<br> required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file<br> such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall remain entitled to convert this Note during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the<br> effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein. |

| (g) Fundamental<br> Transaction. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person,<br> (ii) the Company (or any subsidiary), directly or indirectly effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,<br> except to the extent subject to an adjustment pursuant to Section 5, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of<br> Ordinary Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of<br> the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange<br> pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a share purchase<br> agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires<br> more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the Ordinary Shares of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”),<br> then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental<br> Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion of this Note), the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving<br> corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of<br> the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Note is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion of this Note). For purposes of any such conversion, the<br> determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and<br> the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Ordinary Shares are given<br> any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such<br> Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor<br> Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(h) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the<br> Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Note a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a<br> written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares<br> acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to<br> such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such<br> conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Note immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon<br> the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Note (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision<br> of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities,<br> jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Note with<br> the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Holder acknowledge and agree<br> that the transactions contemplated by that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Oratech Purchase Agreement”), dated as of January 12, 2026, by and among the Company, Oratech Pharma, Inc. and Oramed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Current<br> Transaction”) and related transaction documentation, including the execution of the Oratech Purchase Agreement and documentation related thereto, shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction for<br> any purpose under this Note, and no rights, remedies, or obligations that would otherwise arise upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction shall be triggered by or in connection with the consummation of the Current Transaction. <br> Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transaction, action, election, or arrangement initiated, proposed, directed, or otherwise caused by, or at the direction of, Oramed shall constitute, or be deemed to<br> constitute, a Fundamental Transaction, and no Fundamental Transaction shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of any voluntary act or omission of Oramed. For the avoidance of doubt, a Fundamental Transaction shall only be<br> deemed to occur upon the consummation of a transaction undertaken by the Company or a third party independent of Oramed, and not as a result of any designation, characterization, or contractual right exercised by Oramed. |

Section 9. Redemption.
| (a) | Mandatory Redemption upon a Change of Control Transaction. |
|---|
(i) At any time after the Original Issue Date, to the extent that there occurs a Change of Control Transaction, the Holder shall have the right, by delivering written notice to the Company, to cause the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes then outstanding, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (a “Change of Control Redemption”).
The Notes subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 9\(a\) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the product of \(i\) 105% and \(ii\) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus
and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
(ii) With respect to any portion of this Note which has been specified to be redeemed by the Company pursuant to the Change of Control Redemption and which has been redeemed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9(a), (i) such portion of this Note shall no longer be deemed outstanding and (ii) all rights with respect to such portion of this Note shall cease and terminate.
(iii) In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 9(a), a Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for such Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 9(a) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of such Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
| (b) | Mandatory Redemption upon Financing Transaction. |
|---|---|
| (i) | In the event (i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries conducts an offering of its equity securities, or (ii) any Ordinary Share Equivalents of the Company outstanding as of the Original Issue Date are exercised or converted, as<br> applicable, including, without limitation, any warrant inducement transactions of the Company, in each case, resulting in cash proceeds to the Company in connection therewith (a “Financing Transaction”), the Company shall, within ten<br> (10) Business Days of the receipt of the proceeds of such Financing Transaction, apply 33% of such gross proceeds the (“Financing Transaction Proceeds Amount”) towards the redemption (each, a “Financing Transaction Mandatory Redemption”) of<br> this Note, in accordance with the terms of Section 9(b) below. |
| --- | --- |
21
| (ii) | Any Financing Transaction Mandatory Redemption payments shall be applied: (i) first, against any accrued and unpaid interest due and payable on this Note; (ii) second,<br> against any accrued and unpaid interest due and payable on any Additional Notes; and (iii) third, at the Company’s sole election, against the outstanding principal amount of this Note and any<br> Additional Notes then outstanding (allocated pro rata as among this Note and the Additional Notes and to each holder thereof on a pro rata basis in accordance with the principal amount of this Note and the applicable Additional Note held<br> thereby); provided that, in the case of (iii), (a) the Company shall pay to the Holder a redemption fee equal to 35% of the principal amount of this Note being redeemed; and (b) the Company shall pay to the Holder a redemption fee equal to<br> 15% of the principal amount of any Additional Notes being redeemed. |
|---|---|
| (c) | Other Redemptions. Other than as<br> described in Section 9(a) and 9(b) hereof, the Company may not redeem or prepay this Note without the prior written consent of the Required Holder, which<br> consent may be withheld in the Required Holder’s sole discretion. |
| --- | --- |
Section 10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holder hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice of Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by email attachment, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at the address set forth above, or such other email address, or address as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holder delivered in accordance with this Section 10(a).

22
(b) Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, liquidated damages and accrued interest, as applicable, on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Note is a direct debt obligation of the Company. This Note ranks pari passu with all other Notes now or hereafter issued under the terms set forth herein.
(c) Lost or Mutilated Note. If this Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated Note, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Note, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
(d) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof (other than Title 14 of Article 5 of the New York General Obligations Law). Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the State of New York (the “New York Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such Delaware Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note or the transactions contemplated hereby.

23
(e) Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or the Required Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Required Holder
to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to
insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any provision of this Note may be waived by the Required Holder, which waiver shall be binding on all of the holders of the Notes and their successors and assigns. Any provision of this Note may be amended by the Company or the Required
Holder and must be in writing, which amendment shall be binding on all of the holders of the Notes and their successors and assigns.
(f) Severability. If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.
(g) Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein.

ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT
LIFEWARD LTD.
| Warrant Shares: _______ | Initial Exercise Date: [_______] |
|---|
THIS ORDINARY SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, [ ] or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date set forth above (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on [______________]^1^ (the “Termination Date”)
but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Lifeward Ltd., an Israeli company \(the “Company”\), up to \[ \] shares \(as subject to adjustment
hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”\) of the Company’s Ordinary Shares. The purchase price of one Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise
Price, as defined in Section 2\(b\).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated January 12, 2026, among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein), in each case following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No
ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee \(or other type of guarantee or notarization\) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be
required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the
Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant
Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records
showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one \(1\) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares
hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
^1^ Insert the date that is the five (5) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, provided that, if such date is not a Trading Day, insert the immediately following Trading Day.
b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $[_____]^2^, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”)
as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two \(2\) hours thereafter \(including until two \(2\) hours after
the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day\) pursuant to Section 2\(a\) hereof or \(iii\) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both
executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2\(a\) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
^2^ To equal $0.45 per share (subject to Section 4.13(b) of the Purchase Agreement).
2
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Ordinary Shares for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or the OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”) is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Open Market (“Pink Market”) operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported on the Pink Market operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
3
If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
| d) | Mechanics of Exercise. |
|---|
i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate or a book-entry certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3^rd^) Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.
4
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Ordinary Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
5
v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round down to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
| e) | Holder’s Exercise Limitations. <br> The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after<br> exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing<br> sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination<br> is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties<br> and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Ordinary Share Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise<br> analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be<br> calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in<br> compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the<br> determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole<br> discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates<br> and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In<br> addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Company shall have no obligation<br> to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reflected in (A) the<br> Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the<br> number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the<br> number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of<br> which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 45.0% of the number of Ordinary Shares<br> outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that following the date on which (i) the Other Purchasers no longer hold any Other Notes, and (ii)<br> the Other Purchasers have sold (x) all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Other Notes and (y) all the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by the Other Purchasers, such<br> Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall automatically increase to 49.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The<br> Holder may, upon notice to the Company and, for so long as any of the Company’s warrants as of the Initial Exercise Date remain outstanding, with the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably<br> withheld, conditioned or delayed, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e); provided, however, that (i) any<br> increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61^st^ day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be increased if (x) any Other Notes are outstanding and held by an Other Purchaser, (y) all of the Other Notes Shares have not<br> been sold by the Other Purchasers, and (z) all of the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants initially issued to the Other Purchasers have not been sold. The provisions of this paragraph shall be<br> construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership<br> Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. |

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Share Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of Ordinary Shares any shares of share capital of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re‑classification.
b) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Ordinary Share Equivalents or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
7
c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, shares, or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Ordinary Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction payable in either, at the option of the Company, cash, Ordinary Shares or the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion) that is being offered and paid to the holders of the Ordinary Shares of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, shares or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of the Ordinary Shares are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Ordinary Shares of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Ordinary Shares will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of (1) the 100 day volatility or (2) the volatility of 100%, each of clauses (1)-(2) as obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(d), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of share capital of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such share capital (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such share capital, such number of share capital and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(d) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized Ordinary Shares for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Holder acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Oratech Purchase Agreement”), dated as of January 12, 2026, by and among the Company, Oratech Pharma, Inc. and Oramed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Current Transaction”) and related transaction documentation, including the execution of the Oratech Purchase Agreement and documentation related thereto, shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction for any purpose under this Warrant, and no rights, remedies, or obligations that would otherwise arise upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction shall be triggered by or in connection with the consummation of the Current Transaction. Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transaction, action, election, or arrangement initiated, proposed, directed, or otherwise caused by, or at the direction of, Oramed shall constitute, or be deemed to constitute, a Fundamental Transaction, and no Fundamental Transaction shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of any voluntary act or omission of Oramed. For the avoidance of doubt, a Fundamental Transaction shall only be deemed to occur upon the consummation of a transaction undertaken by the Company or a third party independent of Oramed, and not as a result of any designation, characterization, or contractual right exercised by Oramed..
8
e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
f) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share capital of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares are converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Ordinary Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
9
g) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time after June 26, 2026 through the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
10
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, comply with the provisions of Section 5.7 of the Purchase Agreement.
e) Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any share certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or share certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or share certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or share certificate.
11
c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.
d) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its articles of association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
12
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Ordinary Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
l) Amendment. Other than Section 2(e) and this Section 5(l), which may not be modified, amended or waived, this Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand. Additionally, any waiver to any of the Warrants by the Required Holder, or any amendment to the Warrants as agreed upon in writing by the Company and the Required Holder, shall automatically apply to this Warrant.
m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

Attn: William Mark Grant; Almog Adar

Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned signatory of this lock-up agreement (this “Lock-Up Agreement’’) understands that Lifeward Ltd., a company limited by shares organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Parent”),
is entering into a Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of \[ \], 2025 \(as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement’’\) with Oratech Pharma, Inc., a Delaware corporation \(the “Company”\) and Oramed
Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware corporation \(the “Seller”\). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
As a condition and inducement to each of the parties to enter into the Purchase Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that, subject to the exceptions set forth herein, without the prior written consent of Parent, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing upon the Closing and ending on the date that is 120 days after the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”):
(1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Parent Ordinary Shares (including without limitation, shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or such other securities of Parent which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and securities of Parent which may be issued upon exercise or vesting, as applicable, of a stock option or warrant or settlement of a restricted stock unit or restricted stock award and Parent Ordinary Shares or such other securities to be issued to the undersigned in connection with the Purchase Agreement, in each case, that are currently or hereafter owned of record or beneficially (including holding as a custodian)) by the undersigned, except as set forth below (collectively, the “Undersigned’s Shares”);
(2) enter into any swap, short sale, hedge or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Undersigned’s Shares regardless of whether any such transaction described in clause (1) above or this clause (2) is to be settled by delivery of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise;
(3) make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Parent Ordinary Shares (other than such rights set forth in the Purchase Agreement); or
(4) except for any support agreement entered into as of the date hereof by the undersigned with Parent and the Company, grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any Parent Ordinary Shares, deposit any Parent Ordinary Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or similar arrangement or commitment with respect to any Parent Ordinary Shares; or
(5) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.
The restrictions and obligations contemplated by this Lock-Up Agreement shall not apply to:
(a) transfers of the Undersigned’s Shares:
(i) (A) to any person related to the undersigned (or to an ultimate beneficial owner of the undersigned) by blood or adoption who is an immediate family member of the undersigned, or by marriage or domestic partnership (a “Family Member”), or to a trust formed for the benefit of the undersigned or any of the undersigned’s Family Members, (B) to the undersigned’s estate, following the death of the undersigned, by will, intestacy or other operation of Law, (C) as a bona fide gift or a charitable contribution, as such term is described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, or otherwise to a trust or other entity for the direct or indirect benefit of an immediate family member of a beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of the Undersigned’s Shares (D) by operation of Law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement or (E) to any partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity, in each case, the beneficial ownership interests of all of which are held by or otherwise under common control (via beneficial ownership, contract or otherwise) with the undersigned or a Family Member of the undersigned;
(ii) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, (A) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity that is a direct or indirect affiliate (as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act) of the undersigned, including investment funds or other entities that controls or manages, is under common control or management with, or is controlled or managed by, the undersigned (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where the undersigned is a partnership, to its general partner or a successor partnership or fund, or any other funds managed by such partnership), (B) as a distribution or dividend to equity holders, current or former partners, members, stockholders or managers (or to the estates of any of the foregoing), as applicable, of the undersigned (including upon the liquidation and dissolution of the undersigned pursuant to a plan of liquidation approved by the undersigned’s equity holders), (C) as a bona fide gift or a charitable contribution, as such term is described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, or otherwise to a trust or other entity for the direct or indirect benefit of an immediate family member of a beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of the Undersigned’s Shares, (D) transfers or dispositions not involving a change in beneficial ownership or (E) with prior written consent of Parent (as constituted following the Closing); or
(iii) if the undersigned is a trust, to any grantors or beneficiaries of the trust;
provided that, in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to this clause (a), such transfer is not for value (other than transfers pursuant to clauses (a)(i)(A), (a)(i)(E) or (a)(ii)(A) hereto) and each donee, heir, beneficiary or other transferee or distributee shall sign and deliver to Parent a lock-up agreement in the form of this Lock-Up Agreement with respect to the shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or such other securities that have been so transferred or distributed and if a filing pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act is required, such filing shall describe the nature of the transfer or distribution;
(b) the exercise of an option to purchase shares of Parent Ordinary Shares (including a net or cashless exercise of an option to purchase shares of Parent Ordinary Shares), and any related transfer of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares to Parent for the purpose of paying the exercise price of such options or for paying taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of such options or for paying taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of such options; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the underlying shares of Parent Ordinary Shares shall continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement;
(c) transfers to Parent in connection with the net settlement of any other equity award that represents the right to receive in the future shares of Parent Ordinary Shares, settled in shares of Parent Ordinary Shares, to pay any tax withholding obligations; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the underlying shares of Parent Ordinary Shares shall continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement;
(d) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-l under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares; provided that such plan does not provide for any transfers of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares during the Restricted Period;
(e) the disposition (including a forfeiture or repurchase) to Parent of any shares of restricted stock granted pursuant to the terms of any employee benefit plan or restricted stock purchase agreement;
(f) the transfer or disposition of Parent Ordinary Shares in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units, so long as such sale is effected pursuant to Parent’s sell to cover policy solely in an amount sufficient to cover the tax withholdings or remittance payments due as a result of the vesting of such restricted stock units; provided that (1) any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall indicate in the footnotes thereto that the filing relates to the applicable circumstances described in this clause and (2) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report in connection with such transfer;
(g) transfers, distributions, sales or other transactions by the undersigned of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares purchased by the undersigned on the open market or in a public offering by Parent, in each case following the date of the Closing;
(h) transfers pursuant to a bona-fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of Parent’s capital stock involving a change of control of Parent, provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Undersigned’s Shares shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Lock-Up Agreement;
(i) transfers pursuant to an order of a court or regulatory agency; or
(j) transfers, distributions, sales or other transactions with the prior written consent of Parent (as constituted following the Closing);
provided, that, with respect to each of (b), (c), and (d) above, no filing by any party (including any donor, donee, transferor, transferee, distributor or distributee) under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be made voluntarily reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Parent Ordinary Shares in connection with such transfer or disposition during the Restricted Period (other than any exit filings) and if any filings under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, or other public filing, report or announcement reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Parent Ordinary Shares in connection with such transfer or distribution, shall be legally required during the Restricted Period, such filing, report or announcement shall clearly indicate in the footnotes therein, in reasonable detail, a description of the circumstances of the transfer and that the shares remain subject to this Lock-Up Agreement.
For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “change of control” shall mean the transfer (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction), in one transaction or a series of related transactions to a person or group of affiliated persons, of the Parent’s voting securities if, after such transfer, the Parent’s stockholders as of immediately prior to such transfer do not hold a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Parent (or the surviving entity).
Any attempted transfer in violation of this Lock-Up Agreement will be of no effect and null and void, regardless of whether the purported transferee has any actual or constructive knowledge of the transfer restrictions set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement, and will not be recorded on the share register of Parent. In furtherance of the foregoing, the undersigned agrees that Parent and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement. Parent may cause the legend set forth below, or a legend substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s) or other documents, ledgers or instruments evidencing the undersigned’s ownership of Parent Ordinary Shares:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO AND MAY ONLY BE TRANSFERRED IN COMPLIANCE WITH A LOCK-UP AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF PARENT.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation nor default of any of the provisions of its respective constitutional documents, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not have or reasonably be expected to result in: (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of the Transaction Documents, (ii) a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, business, prospects or financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to perform in any material respect on a timely basis its obligations under the Transaction Documents (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”), and, to the Company’s knowledge, no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or qualification.

The Underlying Shares are duly authorized and, when issued and delivered upon conversion or exercise, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Transaction Documents, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens imposed by the Company other than restrictions on transfer provided for in the Transaction Documents.

(w) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Ordinary Shares under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such registration. Except as disclosed in its SEC Reports, the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. Except as otherwise disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. The Ordinary Shares are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer.
(x) Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents) or, subject to the receipt of the Required Approvals, the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.
21
(y) Disclosure. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed in the SEC Reports. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding the date of this Agreement taken as a whole do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made and when made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.
(z) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances, except for the offer and sale of the Prior Note, that would cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would require the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(aa) Indebtedness. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of each applicable Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization, winding-up or liquidation under the bankruptcy, winding-up or reorganization laws of any jurisdictions within one year from each applicable Closing Date. The SEC Reports set forth as of the date thereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness which default permits the holders thereof to cause such Indebtedness to become or be declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable.
22

ARTICLE IV.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Removal of Legends.
(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Security under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.
(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following form:
NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE OR CONVERTIBLE INTO HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OR CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
29
The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities.
(c) In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Underlying Shares by the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the Purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Purchaser with the requirements of the Transaction Documents, if requested by the Purchaser by notice to the Company, the Company shall request the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends as soon as reasonably practicable following any such request therefor from the Purchaser provided that the Company has timely received from the Purchaser customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and its legal counsel associated with such legend removal. Subject to receipt from the Purchaser by the Company and the Transfer Agent of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith, upon the earliest of such time as the Underlying Shares (i) have been sold under the Securities Act pursuant to an effective registration statement; (ii) have been sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirements under Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor provision), the Company shall, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.1(c) and as soon as reasonably practicable following any request therefor from the Purchaser accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable documentation referred to above, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the delivery by the Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate or book-entry statement representing the Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate or book-entry statement representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1(c). Certificates or book entry statements for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Ordinary Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of a certificate or book-entry statement representing Underlying Shares issued with a restrictive legend. Notwithstanding anything provided in this Section 4.1(c) herein, the restrictive legends related to the Underlying Shares shall only be removed (i) in connection with a sale pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) in connection with and pursuant to Rule 144 if the Purchaser has held the Underlying Shares for more than one (1) year.
30
(d) In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, (i) as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date such Securities are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate or report is delivered without a legend and (ii) if the Company fails to (a) issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to a Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date a certificate or report representing the Underlying Shares so delivered to the Company by such Purchaser that is free from all restrictive and other legends and (b) if after the Legend Removal Date such Purchaser purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Ordinary Shares, to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of all or any portion of the number of Ordinary Shares, or a sale of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to all or any portion of the number of Ordinary Shares that such Purchaser anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend, then, an amount equal to the excess of such Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) (the “Buy-In Price”) over the product of (A) such number of Underlying Shares that the Company was required to deliver to such Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date multiplied by (B) the lowest closing sale price of the Ordinary Shares on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Purchaser to the Company of the applicable Underlying Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this Section 4.1(d).
4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other shareholders of the Company.
4.3 Furnishing of Information; Public Information.

(b) At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares (assuming cashless exercise) may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company (i) shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (ii) has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Underlying Shares, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30^th^) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchasers to transfer the Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.3(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3^rd^) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of one and a half percent (1.5)% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
31
4.4 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction.
4.5 Conversion and Exercise Procedures. The form of Notice of Conversion included in the Notes and the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to convert the Notes or exercise the Warrants, as applicable.

To the extent that the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, or Affiliates delivers any material, non-public information to a Purchaser without such Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, or agents, or a duty to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agents, not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information, provided that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously with the delivery of such notice file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Purchasers), (i) the Purchasers shall promptly provide written notice of such breach to the Company and (ii) after such notice has been provided to the Company and, provided that the Company shall have failed to publicly disclose such material, non-public information within 24 hours following demand therefor by the Purchaser or the Company shall have failed to demonstrate to the Purchaser in writing within 24 hours that such information does not constitute material, non-public information, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, if the Purchaser is holding any Securities at the time of the disclosure of material, non-public information, the Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, non-public information without the prior approval by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents.
33
4.9 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital purposes, general corporate purposes, commercialization efforts and research and development costs, and shall not use such proceeds: (a) for the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other than the Notes or the payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior practices), (b) for the redemption of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents, (c) for the settlement of any outstanding litigation or (d) in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations.
4.10 Indemnification. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages and reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any shareholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is solely based upon a material breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with any such shareholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (c) in connection with any registration statement of the Company providing for the resale by the Purchasers of the Underlying Shares, the Company will indemnify each Purchaser Party, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable and documented costs (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) and expenses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, any prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Purchaser Party furnished in writing to the Company by such Purchaser Party expressly for use therein, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder in connection therewith. If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and, the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.10 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.
34
4.11 Reservation and Listing of Securities.
(a) The Company shall maintain a reserve of the Required Minimum from its duly authorized Ordinary Shares for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.
(b) If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) Ordinary Shares is less than the Required Minimum on such date (an “Authorized
Share Failure”\), as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty \(60\) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting
of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized Ordinary Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its
shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized Ordinary Shares and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.
(c) The Company shall, if applicable: (i) in the time and manner required by the principal Trading Market, prepare and file with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering a number of Ordinary Shares at least equal to the Required Minimum on the date of such application, (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such Ordinary Shares to be approved for listing or quotation on such Trading Market as soon as possible thereafter, (iii) provide to the Purchasers evidence of such listing or quotation and (iv) maintain the listing or quotation of such Ordinary Shares on any date at least equal to the Required Minimum on such date on such Trading Market or another Trading Market. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Ordinary Shares for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.
35
4.12 Shareholder Approval. Upon the prior written request of any Purchaser, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within seventy five (75) days of such request, the Company shall hold a special meeting of shareholders (which may also be at the annual meeting of shareholders) at the earliest practical date for the purpose of obtaining Shareholder Approval, with the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors that such proposal be approved, and the Company shall solicit proxies from its shareholders in connection therewith in the same manner as all other management proposals in such proxy statement and all management-appointed proxyholders shall vote their proxies in favor of such proposal. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such Shareholder Approval. If the Company does not obtain Shareholder Approval at the first meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every sixty (60) days thereafter to seek Shareholder Approval until the earlier of the date Shareholder Approval is obtained or the Notes are no longer outstanding.
4.13 Subsequent
Equity Sales.
(a) From the date hereof until thirty (30) Trading Days following the Initial Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall (i) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents or (ii) file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, other than (x) the filing of any registration statement or any amendment thereto with respect to the Underlying Shares, or (y) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8 in connection with any employee benefit plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.13 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.
(b) In the event that the Company effects a reverse share split of its outstanding Ordinary Shares following the date of this Agreement and prior to the Initial Closing Date, then, during the period between the date of the reverse share split and the Initial Closing Date (such period, the “Adjustment Period”), if the Company issues, sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any option to purchase, or sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), or, in accordance with this Section 4.13(b), is deemed to have issued or sold, any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents for a consideration per share (the “Dilutive Issuance Price”) less than $0.52 per Ordinary Share (as adjusted for the reverse stock split)(the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Applicable Price shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product of (x) the Dilutive Issuance Price multiplied by (y) 0.85 (the “New Issuance Price”). The initial conversion price of the Notes and the initial exercise price of the Warrant shall be $0.45 per Ordinary Share or if applicable, the New Issuance Price. The Company shall notify the Purchaser, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance or deemed issuance of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents subject to this Section 4.13(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). If, during the Adjustment Period, the Company in any manner issues or sells or enters into any agreement to issue or sell, any Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents that are issuable pursuant to such agreement or convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Ordinary Shares at a price which varies or may vary with the market price of the Ordinary Shares, including by way of one or more reset(s) to a fixed price, but exclusive of such formulations reflecting customary anti-dilution provisions (such as share splits, share combinations, share dividends and similar transactions), the Company shall be deemed to have issued Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents at the lowest possible price, conversion price or exercise price at which such securities may be issued, converted or exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) no adjustments shall be made under this Section 4.13(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance and (2) upon the occurrence of any adjustment under this Section 4.13(b), this Section 4.13(b) shall no longer apply and no further adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.13(b).
36
i. Issuance of Options. During the Adjustment Period, if the Company in any manner grants, issues or sells (or enters into any agreement to grant, issue or sell) any options and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting, issuance or sale (or the time of execution of such agreement to grant, issue or sell, as applicable) of such option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 4.13(b)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Ordinary Share upon the granting, issuance or sale (or pursuant to the agreement to grant, issue or sell, as applicable) of such option, upon exercise of such option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalent issuable upon exercise of such option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such option for which one Ordinary Share is issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon the exercise of any such options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) upon the granting, issuance or sale (or the agreement to grant, issue or sell, as applicable) such option, upon exercise of such option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalent issuable upon exercise of such option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such option (or any other Person).
ii. Issuance of Ordinary Share Equivalents. During the Adjustment Period, if the Company in any manner issues or sells (or enters into any agreement to issue or sell) any Ordinary Share Equivalents and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale (or the time of execution of such agreement to issue or sell, as applicable) of such Ordinary Share Equivalents for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 4.13(b)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one Ordinary Share upon the issuance or sale (or pursuant to the agreement to issue or sell, as applicable) of the Ordinary Share Equivalent and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Ordinary Share Equivalent or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Ordinary Share Equivalent for which one Ordinary Share is issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Ordinary Share Equivalent (or any other Person) upon the issuance or sale (or the agreement to issue or sell, as applicable) of such Ordinary Share Equivalent plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Ordinary Share Equivalent (or any other Person).
iii. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. During the Adjustment Period, if the purchase or exercise price provided for in any options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents, or the rate at which any Ordinary Share Equivalents are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with any share dividend or other distribution payable in Ordinary Shares on Ordinary Shares or any Ordinary Share Equivalents, subdivision of outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, combination (including by way of a reverse share split) of outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares or issuance, in the event of a reclassification of Ordinary Shares, of any shares of the share capital of the Company), the Applicable Price shall be adjusted as set forth in the Section 4.13(b) as if such options or Ordinary Share Equivalents provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 4.13(b)(iii), if the terms of any option or Ordinary Share Equivalent that was outstanding as of the Original Issue Date are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such option or Ordinary Share Equivalent and the Ordinary Shares deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.13(b) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Applicable Price.
37
iv. Calculation of Consideration Received. If any option and/or Ordinary Share Equivalents and/or Adjustment Right is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Purchaser, the “Primary Security”, and such option and/or Ordinary Share Equivalents and/or Adjustment Right, the “Secondary Securities” and together with the Primary Security, each a “Unit”), together comprising one integrated transaction, the aggregate consideration per Ordinary Share with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be the lowest of (x) the purchase price of such Unit, (y) if such Primary Security is an option and/or Ordinary Share Equivalent, the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Primary Security in accordance with Section 4.13(b)(i) above and (z) the lowest VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on any Trading Day during the five (5) Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”)
immediately following the public announcement of such Dilutive Issuance \(for the avoidance of doubt, if such public announcement is released prior to the opening of the applicable Trading Market on a Trading Day, such Trading Day shall be the first
Trading Day in such five Trading Day period and if the Note is converted, or Warrant is exercised, as the case may be, on any given Conversion Date or Exercise Date, as the case may be, during any such Measurement Period, solely with respect to such
portion of this Note converted on such applicable Conversion Date, or Exercise Date, as the case may be, such applicable Measurement Period shall be deemed to have ended on, and included, the Trading Day immediately prior to such Conversion Date, or
Exercise Date, as the case may be\). If any Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of
consideration received by the Company therefor. If any Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of
such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of
the five \(5\) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the
surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents
\(as the case may be\). The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Purchaser. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten \(10\) days after the
occurrence of an event requiring valuation \(the “Valuation Event”\), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five \(5\) Trading Days after
the tenth \(10th\) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Purchaser. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and
the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company. For purposes of hereof, “Adjustment Right” means any right granted with respect to any
securities issued in connection with, or with respect to, any issuance or sale \(or deemed issuance or sale in accordance with this Section 4.13\(b\) of Ordinary Shares that could result in a decrease in the net consideration received by the Company in
connection with, or with respect to, such securities \(including, without limitation, any cash settlement rights, cash adjustment or other similar rights\).
v. Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Ordinary Shares for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Ordinary Shares, options or in Ordinary Share Equivalents or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares, options or Ordinary Share Equivalents, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the Ordinary Shares deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).
38
4.14 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to such Transaction Documents. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of principal or interest on the Notes in amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts outstanding on the Notes at any applicable time. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
4.15 Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.6, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction (other than as disclosed to its legal and other representatives). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.6, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.6 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agent after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.
39
4.16 Exclusivity. Prior to the Initial Closing, the Company agrees not to, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, continue, or engage in any discussions or negotiations with, or enter into any agreement with, or encourage or respond to any inquiries or proposals by, or participate in any negotiations with, or provide any information to, or commence due diligence with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way, the issuance of any indebtedness of the Company or other convertible securities of the Company.
4.17 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchasers at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Purchaser.
4.18 Registration Statement. As soon as practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the Closing Date), the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form if the Company is not then S-3 eligible) providing for the resale by the Purchasers of the Underlying Shares issued and issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or conversion of the Notes, as applicable. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date (or in the event of a full review by the Commission, seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date) and to keep such registration statement effective at all times until no Purchaser owns any Securities.
ARTICLE V.
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Initial Closing has not been consummated on or before the ninetieth (90th) Trading Day following the date hereof; provided, however, that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties).
5.2 Fees and Expenses. The Company has agreed to reimburse the Lead Investor for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction Documents, provided that the total fees and expenses for which the Company shall reimburse shall not exceed $400,000.00, which shall be deducted from the Lead Investor’s Subscription Amount to be delivered by the Lead Investor to the Company on the Initial Closing Date. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse the Lead Investor for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred after the Initial Closing Date in connection with the Additional Closing and preparation and filing of a registration statement in connection with the Initial Closing or the Additional Closing, which reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses shall be deducted from the Lead Investor’s Subscription Amount to be delivered by the Lead Investor to the Company on the Additional Closing Date. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees (including, without limitation, any fees required for same-day processing of any instruction letter delivered by the Company and any conversion or exercise notice delivered by a Purchaser), stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the Purchasers.
40
5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.
5.4 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto at or prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (c) the second (2^nd^) Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto.
5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and holders of at least a majority in interest of the Securities based on the initial Subscription Amounts hereunder (or, prior to the Initial Closing, the Company and each Purchaser) or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought, provided that if any amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser (or group of Purchasers), the consent of such disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. Any proposed amendment or waiver that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Purchasers shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Purchaser. Any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon each Purchaser and holder of Securities and the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Company’s Articles of Association, any member of the Board of Directors who was appointed, nominated, or designated by any Purchaser or affiliate thereof (each, a “Purchaser Appointed Director”) shall not participate in, vote on, or be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum with respect to any decision, approval, consent, waiver or other action of the board of directors of the Company directly relating to (a) the negotiation, approval, amendment, waiver, enforcement, or interpretation of any Transaction Document, or (b) any dispute or claim arising under or in connection with any Transaction Document, in each case to the extent such matter presents a conflict of interest between the Company and the Purchaser who appointed such Purchaser Appointed Director. Any such matters shall be determined solely by the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the recusal of a Purchaser Appointed Director pursuant to this Section shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a breach of such director’s fiduciary duties to the Company or its shareholders, (ii) any action taken by the disinterested members of the board of directors with respect to matters described above shall be deemed valid and effective notwithstanding the absence or non-participation of any Purchaser Appointed Director, and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any such action taken by the disinterested members of the board of directors shall be entitled to the protections of any applicable conflict-of-interest safe harbor provisions under the Company’s governing documents or applicable corporate law.

5.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger). Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers.”

It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.14 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that in the case of a rescission of a conversion of a Note or an exercise of a Warrant, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any Ordinary Shares subject to any such rescinded conversion or exercise notice, as applicable, concurrently with the return to such Purchaser of the aggregate conversion or exercise price, as applicable, paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration of such Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s Note or Warrant, as applicable (including, issuance of a replacement note or warrant certificate, as applicable, evidencing such restored right).
43
5.15 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Company with respect to the certificate alleged to have been mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
5.16 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.17 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.18 Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any Action or Proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the Initial Closing Date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.
44
5.19 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through Haynes and Boone, LLP. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.
5.20 Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
5.21 Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.
5.22 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and Ordinary Shares in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Ordinary Shares that occur after the date of this Agreement.
45
5.23 Tax Matters. The Company and the Purchaser agree (i) to treat the Notes as debt for all U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, and, in accordance with Section 385(c) of the Code, such characterization shall be binding upon the Purchasers and the Company (along with their successors and assigns) and (ii) not to take any position contrary to this Section 5.23 on any tax return, tax audit or other tax proceedings unless otherwise required by applicable law.
5.24 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
5.25 Agent.
(a) Each Purchaser hereby (i) appoints Agent, as the collateral agent hereunder and under the Security Documents, and (ii) authorizes the Agent (and its general partner, officers, employees and agents) to take such action on such Purchaser’s behalf in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The Agent shall not have, by reason hereof or any of the Security Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Purchaser. Neither the Agent nor any of its partners, officers, employees or agents shall have any liability to any Purchaser for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection hereof or any other Security Document except to the extent caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and each Purchaser agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and all of its partners, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Agent Indemnitees”) from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Agent Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising from or in connection with the performance by such Agent Indemnitee of the duties and obligations of Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Security Documents. The Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Holders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent, exposes the Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or applicable law. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.
46
(b) Successor Agent.
(i) The Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Company and each holder of Notes. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) below or as otherwise provided below. The Required Holders may, by written consent, remove the Agent from all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents.
(ii) Upon any such notice of resignation or removal, the Purchasers shall, with the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), appoint a successor collateral agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor agent, such successor collateral agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the collateral agent, and the Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. After the Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the collateral agent, the provisions of this Section 5.25 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
(iii) If a successor collateral agent shall not have been so appointed within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a written notice of resignation or removal, the Agent shall, with the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), then appoint a successor collateral agent who shall serve as the Agent until such time, if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor collateral agent as provided above.
(iv) In the event that a successor Agent is appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.25 that is not a Purchaser or an affiliate of any Purchaser (or the Required Holders or the Agent (or its successor), as applicable, notify the Company that they or it wants to appoint such a successor Agent pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.25), the Company and each Subsidiary thereof covenants and agrees to promptly take all actions reasonably requested by the Required Holders or the Agent (or its successor), as applicable, from time to time, to secure a successor Agent satisfactory to the requesting part(y)(ies), in their sole discretion, including, without limitation, by paying all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of such successor Agent, by having the Company and each Subsidiary thereof agree to indemnify any successor Agent pursuant to reasonable and customary terms and by each of the Company and each Subsidiary thereof executing a collateral agency agreement or similar agreement and/or any amendment to the Security Documents reasonably requested or required by the successor Agent.

Lifeward Enters Transformative Strategic Investment and Partnership
Agreement with Oramed to Create a Diversified Biomedical Innovation Company
Positions Lifeward as a MedTech platform with a clear path to cashflow positive and long-
term Biotech upside potential
Up to $47 million strategic investment from Oramed and another investor is intended to
provide Lifeward cash runway to profitability and diversify its portfolio across MedTech and BioTech
Lifeward acquires Oramed’s clinical-stage Protein Oral Delivery (POD™) technology adding
exposure to a large, long-term Biotech market opportunity
POD™ targets the $600+ billion injectable drugs market, including ORMD-0801, which has
the potential to become the world’s first commercialized oral insulin medicine
MARLBOROUGH, Mass. and YOKNEAM ILLIT, Israel, Jan. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE ) -- Lifeward Ltd., (Nasdaq: LFWD) (“Lifeward” or the “Company”), a global leader in innovative medical technology designed to transform the lives of people with physical limitations or disabilities, announced today that it has entered into a transformative strategic partnership with Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: ORMP).
The transaction, which has received unanimous approval from Lifeward’s board of directors and is subject to shareholder approval, includes Lifeward integrating Oramed's proprietary protein oral delivery (POD™) technology and Oramed acquiring up to a 49.99% equity ownership in Lifeward. The investment structure provides Lifeward with access to up to approximately $47 million of capital through equity, convertible notes, milestone-based funding, and warrant coverage. This capital framework is designed to support Lifeward’s path to profitability while enabling selective investment in high-value innovation.
The POD™ technology, which is subject to regulatory approval, represents years of research and development in transforming injectable biological therapies into oral medications. POD™ technology was initially applied in clinical trials in diabetes, a global market exceeding $80 billion^1^ annually, with injectable insulin representing a substantial portion. The addressable opportunity for oral delivery can be expanded to multiple peptide and protein-based therapies across metabolic, endocrine, and inflammatory diseases, representing a global market valued at tens of billions.
Under a clinical trial management agreement, Oramed will retain responsibility for managing and funding the anticipated POD™ clinical program. This structure allows Lifeward to maintain operational focus on profitability and cash generation, while retaining exposure to the potential upside of a large-scale biotech opportunity.
For Lifeward, this transaction with Oramed represents the starting point of a broader diversification strategy across medical technology and biotechnology. Upon consummation of the transaction, Lifeward will operate as a disciplined biomedical portfolio company, focused on:
| • | Achieving sustainable profitability from existing FDA-approved MedTech products, such as the ReWalk® and AlterG® product lines |
|---|---|
| • | Deploying capital selectively towards assets with defined milestones and risk-adjusted returns |
| --- | --- |
| • | Building a balanced, diversified biomedical portfolio that combines near-term revenue with longer-term biotech innovation |
| --- | --- |
"Oramed is the ideal strategic partner for Lifeward at this pivotal moment in our company's evolution. This transaction, if approved, is expected to provide us with the financial resources to reach profitability with our proven ReWalk® and AlterG® product lines while simultaneously unlocking significant growth opportunities through the integration of Oramed's POD™ technology. We see tremendous potential to advance the oral insulin program as we build a truly diversified biomedical innovation company," stated Mark Grant, President and CEO of Lifeward. “We are currently evaluating several other opportunities to expand our portfolio as we optimize revenues and are on a clear path to cash flow positive.”
Oramed’s CEO, Nadav Kidron, commented, "This transaction represents an important strategic milestone for Oramed. By transferring our POD™ technology to Lifeward with an ownership stake, Oramed shareholders retain substantial exposure to the oral delivery platform while simultaneously gaining meaningful participation in a proven revenue-generating medical robotics business and royalty streams. With Mark Grant's extensive diabetes industry experience at the helm, we are confident in Lifeward's ability to advance both the medical robotics and oral insulin platforms."
Having held senior leadership roles at Medtronic, including Vice President of the Americas with full P&L responsibility for a diabetes business exceeding $1.5 billion in annual revenue, as well as diabetes-focused leadership roles at Bristol Myers Squibb, Lifeward CEO Mark Grant brings deep and highly relevant experience across the market.
Strategic Transaction Summary:
| • | Oral Delivery Technology Transfer: Acquisition of Oramed's POD™<br> technology to Lifeward, while Oramed acquires a 49.99% equity ownership interest in Lifeward in the form of a combination of Lifeward ordinary shares and prefunded warrants, plus additional warrants to acquire up to $7 million in ordinary<br> shares of Lifeward. |
|---|
Oramed will fund and manage the POD™ platform’s clinical development, including a planned clinical trial. Oramed will also receive 4% of net sales of the ReWalk franchise for up to 10 years.
| • | Up to $47 Million Investment: The investment structure provides<br> Lifeward with access to up to approximately $47 million of capital from Oramed and another investor through equity, convertible notes, milestone-based funding, and warrant coverage including: |
|---|---|
| o | Convertible Note A: Oramed and another investor to invest an<br> aggregate of $10 million in convertible notes with 8% annual interest, with 100% warrant coverage. |
| --- | --- |
| o | Convertible Note B: Oramed and another investor to invest via an<br> aggregate of $10 million in convertible notes which is automatically triggered upon achieving certain revenue or share price milestones, with 8% annual interest, with 100% warrant coverage. |
| --- | --- |
The transaction is contingent upon closing conditions.
The POD™ Technology:
The POD™ technology is a breakthrough platform that delivers injectable drugs orally by enabling proteins, such as insulin, to travel through the gastrointestinal tract and into the bloodstream. This method is expected to eliminate many of the negative side-effects of injection delivery. The oral administration of current injection-only therapies for conditions including diabetes should offer clear benefits, including, increased compliance and safety, fewer side effects and greater comfort for patients.
POD™ addresses the $634 billion^2^ global injectable drug delivery market including diabetes where $19 billion^3^ of insulin and $52 billion^4^ of GLP-1 analogs were sold globally in 2024.
ORMD-0801, the POD™ technology’s lead drug candidate, has the potential to create a new paradigm in the treatment of type 2 diabetes by orally delivering insulin at an earlier stage of treatment. Earlier treatment has the potential to curb disease progression and delay late-stage complications. Oramed successfully completed a U.S. FDA Phase 2b, 90 day HbA1c trial of ORMD-0801, which met its primary endpoint achieving a statistically significant reduction of HbA1c. While a subsequent Phase 3 study did not meet its primary endpoint, it provided valuable data on high-responder subgroups that demonstrated particularly encouraging results. Based on an extensive analysis of Phase 2 and Phase 3 data, Oramed plans to initiate a 60-patient U.S.-based clinical trial.
