PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED DECEMBER 16, 2024

 

JEFFS’ BRANDS LTD

 

Up to 2,338,403 Ordinary Shares

 

This prospectus relates to the resale, by the selling shareholders identified in the table on page 9 of this prospectus, or the Selling Shareholders, or their permitted assigns, of up to 2,338,403 additional ordinary shares, or the Additional Warrant Shares, no par value, or the Ordinary Shares, of Jeffs’ Brands Ltd, issued or issuable upon the exercise of Series A warrants, or the Series A Warrants, to purchase up to 3,367,123 Ordinary Shares, including Ordinary Shares that may become issuable pursuant to certain anti-dilution adjustments described more fully in the Series A Warrants. A resale Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-277188), or the Previous Registration Statement, covering the resale of up to 1,028,720 Ordinary Shares, after giving effect to the Reverse Split (as defined below), or the Previously Registered Warrant Shares, issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants was filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on February 20, 2024 and was declared effective by the SEC on February 8,2024.

 

Following the reverse share split of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, or the Reverse Split, at a ratio of 1-for-13, effected as of market open on November 20, 2024, on November 26, 2024, the exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Series A Warrants were adjusted, in accordance with the terms therein, or the Reverse Split Adjustment. Following the Reverse Split Adjustment, the exercise price was adjusted to $2.7008 per Ordinary Share, the lowest weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares during the period commencing on November 20, 2024 and ending on November 26, 2024, and the number of Ordinary Shares underlying the Series A Warrants was adjusted to 3,367,123 (the arithmetic calculation resulting in the aggregate exercise price payable following the exercise of the Series A Warrants to be equal to the aggregate exercise price on January 29, 2024, the issuance date of the Series A Warrants).

 

The 2,338,403 Additional Warrant Shares being offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus represents the additional amount of Ordinary Shares that are issued or issuable under the Series A Warrant and were not registered pursuant to the Previous Registration Statement, such number determined as if the outstanding Series A Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the filing date of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Series A Warrants. We are registering the Additional Warrant Shares in order to allow the Selling Shareholders to offer the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the Series A Warrants for resale from time to time.

 

No Ordinary Shares are being registered hereunder for sale by us. While we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Additional Warrant Shares by the Selling Shareholders, we may receive cash proceeds equal to the total exercise price of the Series A Warrants to the extent that the Series A Warrants are exercised using cash. The current exercise price of the Series A Warrant is $2.7008 per each whole Ordinary Share, subject to certain adjustments as set forth therein. See “Use of Proceeds” on page 7 of this prospectus. A Selling Shareholder may sell all or a portion of its Additional Warrant Shares from time to time in market transactions through any market on which our Ordinary Shares are then traded, in negotiated transactions or otherwise, and at prices and on terms that will be determined by the then prevailing market price or at negotiated prices directly or through a broker or brokers, who may act as agent or as principal or by a combination of such methods of sale. See “Plan of Distribution” on page 14 of this prospectus.

 

Our Ordinary Shares and warrants issued as part of our initial public offering, or the Public Warrants, are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “JFBR” and “JFBRW,” respectively. On December 13, 2024, the last reported sale price of the Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants was $2.66 and $0.053, respectively. There is no established market for the Series A Warrants and we do not intend to apply to list the Series A Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus, including information incorporated by reference herein, and any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of us or to which we have referred you. Neither we nor the selling shareholders have authorized anyone to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, the securities offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction to or from any person to whom or from whom it is unlawful to make such offer tor solicitation of an offer in such jurisdiction. The information in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date of this prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of our securities.

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel and our registered office and domicile is located in Bnei Brak, Israel. Moreover, the majority of our directors and senior management are not residents of the United States, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or upon such persons or to enforce against them judgments obtained in U.S. courts, including judgments in actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. We have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel, Meitar | Law Offices, that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. See “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” for additional information.

 

For investors outside of the United States: We have not done anything that would permit this offering or possession or distribution of this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required, other than in the United States. You are required to inform yourselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to this offering and the distribution of this prospectus.

 

In this prospectus, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Jeffs’ Brands” refer to Jeffs’ Brands Ltd.

Effective as of market open on November 20, 2024, we conducted a reverse share split of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, no par value, at a ratio of 1-for-13. All descriptions of our share capital, including share amounts and per share amounts in this prospectus are presented after giving effect to the Reverse Split.

 

This prospectus incorporates by reference statistical, market and industry data and forecasts which we obtained from publicly available information and independent industry publications and reports that we believe to be reliable sources. These publicly available industry publications and reports generally state that they obtain their information from sources that they believe to be reliable, but they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information.

Recent Developments

 

Non-Binding Memorandum of Understanding to Acquire a Logistics Center in New Jersey

 

On May 20, 2024, we entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding, or the MOU, to acquire a company that operates a strategically located logistics center in New Jersey, or the Logistics Warehouse Company. Pursuant to the terms of the MOU, subject to the successful completion of due diligence by both parties, the execution of binding definitive agreements with respect to the transaction, which shall include customary closing conditions, and compliance with any regulatory approvals, we will acquire a 100,000-square-foot facility equipped with 20 loading docks, with the goal of enhancing the Company’s supply chain capabilities, or the Warehouse Acquisition. . There is no guarantee when or if the Warehouse Acquisition will be completed. Certain of our directors and officers may be deemed to have a personal interest in the Warehouse Acquisition by virtue of holding or being a family member of a holder, of an equity interest in the Logistics Warehouse Company.

 

Non-Binding Letter of Intent for the Sale of Smart Repair Pro

 

On October 30, 2024, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent, or the Smart LOI, for the sale of one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, Smart Repair Pro, to a U.S. public company, traded on the OTC pink sheets, or the Acquiring Company, at a valuation of approximately $13.125 million, or the Smart Transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Smart LOI, subject to the successful completion of due diligence by both parties, the execution of binding definitive agreements with respect to the Smart Transaction, which shall include customary closing conditions, and compliance with any regulatory approvals, we will transfer all the shares of capital stock of Smart Repair Pro to the Acquiring Company, in exchange for 75% of the Acquiring Company’s issued and outstanding shares (on a fully diluted basis), as the base payment upon closing. Upon the achievement of certain milestones, including the uplisting of the Acquiring Company to a national U.S. securities exchange within three years from the closing of the Smart Transaction, we will receive an additional 15% equity stake in the Acquiring Company, as a deferred payment.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves risks. Please carefully consider the risk factors described below and those contained in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including those set forth under the caption “Item 3. Key Information - D. Risk Factors” in our 2023 Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus. You should be able to bear a complete loss of your investment.

 

Risks Related to an Investment in our Securities and this Offering

 

Sales of a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, including the resale of the Additional Warrant Shares issued or issuable to the Selling Shareholders, or by our existing shareholders could cause our share price to fall.

 

We are registering for resale up to 2,338,403 Additional Warrant Shares issued or issuable to the Selling Shareholders following the Reverse Split Adjustment and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (as defined below). Sales of a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We are unable to predict the effect that sales may have on the prevailing market price of our Ordinary Shares.

 

Our management will have immediate and broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from the exercise of the Series A Warrants, if any, and may not use them effectively.

 

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from the cash exercise of the Series A Warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes, as well as for potential acquisitions. See “Use of Proceeds.” However, our management will have broad discretion in the application of any such net proceeds. Our shareholders may not agree with the manner in which our management chooses to allocate the net proceeds from the exercise of the Series A Warrants. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from the exercise of the Series A Warrants in a manner that does not produce income. The decisions made by our management may not result in positive returns on your investment and you will not have an opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information upon which our management bases its decisions.

 

We cannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants will remain listed on Nasdaq or any other securities exchange.

 

On April 23, 2024, we received a written notice, or the Notice, from Nasdaq indicating that we were not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we were granted a period of 180 calendar days and thereafter pursuant to our request, an additional period of 180 calendar days, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. Although we have since cured this deficiency by, among other things, effecting the Reverse Split and have regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), there is a risk that we could be subject to additional notices of delisting for failure to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) or other Nasdaq Listing Rules.

 

No assurance can be given that we will remain eligible to be listed on Nasdaq. In the event that our Ordinary Shares are delisted from Nasdaq due to our failure to continue to comply with the requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq, and are not eligible for listing on another exchange, trading in our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants could be conducted in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants, and it would likely be more difficult to obtain coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our Ordinary Shares to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a national exchange.

Risks Related to Our Incorporation, Location and Operations in Israel

 

Political, economical and military conditions in Israel, including the attack by Hamas, hostilities with Hezbollah and Iran other terrorist organizations from the region, and Israel’s war against them, may adversely affect our operations and limit our ability to market our products, which would lead to a decrease in revenues.

 

Our offices and management team are located in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations.

 

In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Since the commencement of these events, there have been additional active hostilities, including with Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement which controls parts of Yemen, and most recently with Iran. As a result of numerous attacks on marine vessels traversing the Red Sea launched by the Houthi movement we have experienced delays in supplier deliveries, extended lead times, and increased cost of freight, increased insurance costs, purchased materials and manufacturing labor costs. We currently do not experience such delays and the cost of freight is nearly back to the prices prior to the attacks in October 2023, but there is no assurance that we will not experience in the future such delays. The risk of ongoing supply disruptions may further result in delayed deliveries of our products. It is possible that these hostilities will re-escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict, and that additional terrorist organizations and countries will actively join the hostilities. The intensity and duration of Israel’s current war against Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terror organizations is difficult to predict, as are such war’s economic implications on the Company’s business and operations and on Israel’s economy in general. These events may imply wider macroeconomic indications of a deterioration of Israel’s economic standing (including as the result of a downgrade in Israel’s credit rating by certain credit rating agencies), which may have a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to effectively conduct its operations.

 

The military hostilities have included and may include terror, missile and drone attacks. In the event that our facilities are damaged as a result of hostile actions, or hostilities otherwise disrupt our ongoing operations, our ability to deliver or provide products and services in a timely manner to meet our contractual obligations towards customers and vendors could be materially and adversely affected. Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that such government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

In addition, some countries around the world restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, and additional countries may impose restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies if hostilities in Israel or political instability in the region continue or increase. These restrictions may limit materially our ability to manufacture or obtain raw materials for our products from these countries or sell our products to customers in these countries. In addition, there have been increased efforts by countries, activists and organizations to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods and services. In addition, in January 2024 the International Court of Justice, or ICJ, issued an interim ruling in a case filed by South Africa against Israel in December 2023, making allegations of genocide amid and in connection with the war in Gaza, and ordered Israel, among other things, to take measures to prevent genocidal acts, prevent and punish incitement to genocide, and take steps to provide basic services and humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza. There are concerns that companies and businesses will terminate, and may have already terminated, certain commercial relationships with Israeli companies following the ICJ decision. The foregoing efforts by countries, activists and organizations, particularly if they become more widespread, as well as the ICJ rulings and future rulings and orders of other tribunals against Israel (if handed), may materially and adversely impact our ability to sell our products outside of Israel.

  those factors referred to in “Item 3. Key Information - D. Risk Factors,” “Item 4. Information on the Company,” and “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” of our 2023 Annual Report as well other factors in the 2023 Annual Report.

 

These statements are only current predictions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Additional Warrant Shares by the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders will receive all of the proceeds from the sale of any Additional Warrant Shares sold by them pursuant to this prospectus. However, we may receive cash proceeds equal to the total exercise price of the Additional Warrants Shares upon exercise of the Series A Warrants to the extent that they are exercised using cash.

 

We intend to use any proceeds from the exercise of the Series A Warrants for working capital and other general corporate purposes, as well as for potential acquisitions. We may receive up to approximately $6.3 million in aggregate gross proceeds upon the issuance of the Additional Warrants Shares if all Series A Warrants are exercised for cash.

 

Pending our use of the net proceeds from the exercise of the Series A Warrants, we may invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities, as decided by our board of directors from time to time.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

On January 25, 2024, we entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with the Selling Shareholders, providing for the issuance, in a private placement of: (i) 144,959 Ordinary Shares; (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 63,077 Ordinary Shares, or the Pre-Funded Warrants; (iii) up to 1,028,20 Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants; and (iv) up to 614,929 Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of Series B Warrants, or the Previously Offered Securities. The transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement, or the January 2024 PIPE, closed on January 29, 2024, or the closing date.

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $0.00013 per Ordinary Share and as of the date of this prospectus have been exercised in full. The initial exercise price and number of Ordinary Shares issuable under the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant, were subject to certain adjustments, including an adjustment to be determined following 30 consecutive trading days following the date on which a resale registration statement covering the resale of the Previously Offered Securities is continuously effective, or the Reset Period, to be determined pursuant to the lowest daily average trading price of the Ordinary Shares during a period of 20 trading days, subject to a pricing floor of $0.68 per Ordinary Share, such that the maximum number of Ordinary Shares underlying the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants would be an aggregate of approximately 1,028,720 Ordinary Shares and 614,929 Ordinary Shares, respectively. The Previous Registration Statement, covering the resale of the Previously Offered Securities was filed by the Company with the SEC on February 20, 2024 and was declared effective by the SEC on February 8, 2024.

 

Following the end of the Reset Period, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants was 1,028,709 Ordinary Shares and 608,014 Ordinary Shares, respectively, which is based on a Reset Price (as defined in the Series A Warrant) of $8.84 per Ordinary Share, the lowest daily average trading price of the Ordinary Shares on November 20, 2024.

 

Following the Reverse Split, on November 26, 2024, the exercise price and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable under the Series A Warrants were further adjusted, in accordance with the terms therein. Following the Reverse Split Adjustment, the exercise price was adjusted to $2.7008 per Ordinary Share, the lowest weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares during the period commencing on November 20, 2024 and ending on November 26, 2024, and the number of Ordinary Shares underlying the Series A Warrants was adjusted to 3,367,123 (the arithmetic calculation resulting in the aggregate exercise price payable following the exercise of the Series A Warrants to be equal to the aggregate exercise price on January 29, 2024, the issuance date of the Series A Warrants).

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Selling Shareholders, dated January 25, 2024, or the Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part within 60 days after the date on which substantially all of the Previously Offered Securities registered under the Previous Registration Statement are sold and to cause such Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part to be declared effective within 30 calendar days following the date of filing of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part, or, in the event of a full review by the SEC, 60 calendar days following the date of filing of this Registration Statement, or the Resale Effectiveness Date. If the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part is not declared effective by the SEC by the Resale Effectiveness Date, subject to certain permitted exceptions, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to the Selling Shareholders.

 

The 2,338,403 Additional Warrant Shares being offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus consist of the additional amount of Ordinary Shares that are issued or issuable under the Series A Warrants and were not registered pursuant to the Previous Registration Statement, such number determined as if the outstanding Series A Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the filing date of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Series A Warrants.

 

We are registering the Additional Warrant Shares in order to allow the Selling Shareholders to offer the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issued or issuable pursuant to the Series A Warrants for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the Previously Offered Securities, the Selling Shareholders, other than L.I.A. Pure Capital Ltd., who provides the Company with consulting services, have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

 

The table below lists the Selling Shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares by each of the Selling Shareholders. The second column lists the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by each Selling Shareholder, based on its previous ownership of Ordinary Shares, Outstanding Warrants, Previously Registered Warrant Shares and other instruments exercisable into Ordinary Shares, as of December 11, 2024, assuming exercise of the Outstanding Warrants, the Previously Registered Warrant Shares and any other instruments exercisable into Ordinary Shares held by the Selling Shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises.

 

The third column lists the Additional Warrant Shares being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Shareholders.

 

The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the Additional Warrant Shares offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus.

Under the terms of the Series A Warrants, a Selling Shareholder may not exercise any Series A Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such Selling Shareholder, together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of Ordinary Shares which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding Ordinary Shares following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination, Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants which have not been exercised. The number of Ordinary Shares in the second column and third column does not reflect this limitation. The Selling Shareholders may sell or have sold, all, some or none of the Additional Warrant Shares. See “Plan of Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering 2,338,403 additional Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants to permit the resale of these Ordinary Shares by the holders thereof and holders of the Series A Warrants from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the Selling Shareholders of the Additional Warrant Shares. The Selling Shareholder will receive all of the proceeds from the sale of any Additional Warrant Shares sold by them pursuant to this prospectus. However, we will receive cash proceeds equal to the total exercise price of the Series A Warrants to the extent that the Series A Warrants are exercised using cash. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the Additional Warrant Shares.

 

The Selling Shareholders may sell all or a portion of the Additional Warrant Shares beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the Additional Warrant Shares are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the Selling Shareholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The Additional Warrant Shares may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions:

 

  on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

 

  in the over-the-counter market;

 

  in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

 

  through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

  privately negotiated transactions;

 

  short sales;

 

  sales pursuant to Rule 144;

 

  broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

  a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

14

 

 

If the Selling Shareholders effect such transactions by selling the Additional Warrant Shares to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Shareholders or commissions from purchasers of the Additional Warrant Shares for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the Ordinary Shares or otherwise, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Additional Warrant Shares in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell the Additional Warrant Shares short and the Additional Warrant Shares covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed Ordinary Shares in connection with such short sales. The Selling Shareholders may also loan or pledge the Additional Warrant Shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such Additional Warrant Shares.

 

The Selling Shareholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Series A Warrants owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the Ordinary Shares from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act, amending, if necessary, the list of Selling Shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Shareholders under this prospectus. The Selling Shareholders also may transfer and donate the Additional Warrant Shares in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the Additional Warrant Shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the Additional Warrant Shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of Additional Warrant Shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the Selling Shareholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers.

 

Under the securities laws of some states, the Additional Warrant Shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Additional Warrant Shares may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

 

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the Additional Warrant Shares registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

The Selling Shareholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Additional Warrant Shares by the Selling Shareholders and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the Additional Warrant Shares to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Additional Warrant Shares. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the Additional Warrant Shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Additional Warrant Shares.

 

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the Additional Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, estimated to be $48,500 in total, including, without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that a selling shareholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the Selling Shareholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, or the Selling Shareholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the Selling Shareholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the Selling Shareholders specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related Registration Rights Agreement, or we may be entitled to contribution.

 

Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the Additional Warrant Shares will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers and the Israeli experts named in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, a substantial majority of whom reside outside of the United States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and a substantial of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States.

 

We have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel, Meitar | Law Offices, that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of U.S. securities laws reasoning Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In Israeli courts, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact which can be a time-consuming and costly process and certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law.

 

Subject to specified time limitations and legal procedures, Israeli courts may enforce a U.S. judgment in a civil matter which, subject to certain exceptions, is non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and including a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

  the judgment was obtained by fraud;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

If a foreign judgment is enforced by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency, which can then be converted into non-Israeli currency and transferred out of Israel. The usual practice in an action before an Israeli court to recover an amount in a non-Israeli currency is for the Israeli court to issue a judgment for the equivalent amount in Israeli currency at the rate of exchange in force on the date of the judgment, but the judgment debtor may make payment in foreign currency. Pending collection, the amount of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli consumer price index plus interest at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange rates.

PART II

 

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Item 8. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

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

 

An Israeli company may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed as an office holder, either in advance of an event or following an event provided a provision authorizing such indemnification is contained in its articles of association:

 

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

 

  reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (i) no indictment was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (ii) no financial liability, such as a criminal penalty, was imposed upon him or her as a substitute for the criminal proceeding as a result of such investigation or proceeding or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and (b) in connection with a monetary sanction;

 

  reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court (i) in proceedings instituted against him or her by the company, on its behalf or by a third party, or (ii) in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder was acquitted, or (iii) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal intent; and

 

II-1

 

 

  expenses, including reasonable litigation expenses and legal fees, incurred by an office holder in relation to an administrative proceeding instituted against such office holder, or certain compensation payments made to an injured party imposed on an office holder by an administrative proceeding, pursuant to certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law.

 

An Israeli company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed as an office holder if and to the extent provided in the company’s articles of association:

 

  a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company, to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;

 

  a breach of the duty of care to the company or to a third party, including a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;

 

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

 

  a financial liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party harmed by a breach in an administrative proceeding; and

 

  expenses, including reasonable litigation expenses and legal fees, incurred by the office holder as a result of an administrative proceeding instituted against him or her, pursuant to certain provisions of the Israeli Securities Law.

 

An Israeli company may not indemnify or insure an office holder against any of the following:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

  a fine, monetary sanction or forfeit levied against the office holder.

 

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders must be approved by the compensation committee, the board of directors (and, with respect to directors and the chief executive officer, by the shareholders). However, under regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the insurance of office holders shall not require shareholder approval and may be approved by only the compensation committee, if the engagement terms are determined in accordance with the company’s compensation policy and that policy was approved by the shareholders by the same special majority required to approve a compensation policy, provided that the insurance policy is on market terms and the insurance policy is not likely to materially impact the company’s profitability, assets or obligations.

 

Our Articles of Association allow us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders for any liability imposed on them as a consequence of an act (including any omission) which was performed by virtue of being an office holder. Our office holders are currently covered by a directors and officers’ liability insurance policy.

 

We have entered into agreements with each of our directors and executive officers exculpating them in advance from liability to us for damages caused to us as a result of a breach of duty of care, and undertaking to indemnify them. This exculpation and indemnification is limited both in terms of amount and coverage and it covers certain amounts regarding administrative proceedings insurable or indemnifiable under the Companies Law and our Articles of Association.

 

In the opinion of the SEC, however, indemnification of directors and office holders for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

 

There is no pending litigation or proceeding against any of our office holders as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any office holder.

Item 10. Undertakings

 

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i)To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

(iii)To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

II-3

 

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and a(l)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act need not be furnished, provided, that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Rule 3-19 of this chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3.

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

 

(i)If the Registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

 

A.Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

B.Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

II-4

 

 

(ii)If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i)Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii)Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii)The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv)Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a resolution with respect to a matter or action for which the Companies Law prescribes a higher majority or pursuant to which a provision requiring a higher majority would have been deemed to have been incorporated into these Articles, but resolutions with respect to which the Companies Law allows the Company’s Articles to provide otherwise, shall be adopted by a simple majority of the voting power represented at the General Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon, as one class, and disregarding abstentions from the count of the voting power present and voting.

A written ballot may be implemented before the proposed resolution is voted upon or immediately after the declaration by the Chairperson of the results of the vote by a show of hands. if a vote by written ballot is taken after such declaration, the results of the vote by a show of hands shall be of no effect, and the proposed resolution shall be decided by such written ballot.

 

(c) A declaration by the Chairperson of the General Meeting that a resolution has been carried unanimously, or carried by a particular majority, or rejected, and an entry to that effect in the minute book of the Company, shall be prima facie evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favor of or against such resolution.

 

30. Power to Adjourn.

 

A General Meeting, the consideration of any matter on its agenda or the resolution on any matter on its agenda, may be postponed or adjourned, from time to time and from place to place: (i) by the Chairperson of a General Meeting at which a quorum is present (and he shall if so directed by the meeting, with the consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented in person or by proxy and voting on the question of adjournment), but no business shall be transacted at any such adjourned meeting except business which might lawfully have been transacted at the meeting as originally called, or a matter on its agenda with respect to which no resolution was adopted at the meeting originally called; or (ii) by the Board (whether prior to or at the General Meeting).

 

31. Voting Power.

 

Subject to the provisions of Article 32(a) and to any provision hereof conferring special rights as to voting, or restricting the right to vote, every shareholder shall have one vote for each share held by him of record, on every resolution, without regard to whether the vote thereon is conducted by a show of hands, by written ballot or by any other means.

Any person so authorized shall be entitled to exercise on behalf of such shareholder all the power which the shareholder could have exercised if it were an individual. upon the request of the Chairperson of the General Meeting, written evidence of such authorization (in form acceptable to the Chairperson) shall be delivered to him.

 

(c) Any shareholder entitled to vote may vote either in person or by proxy (who need not be shareholder of the Company), or, if the shareholder is a company or other corporate body, by representative authorized pursuant to Article (b) above.

 

(d) if two or more persons are registered as joint holders of any share, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other joint holder(s). For the purpose of this Article 32(d), seniority shall be determined by the order of registration of the joint holders in the Register of shareholder.

 

(e) A shareholder who wishes to vote at a General Meeting shall prove his title to a share to the Company as required under the Companies Law and regulations promulgated thereunder. without prejudice to the aforesaid, the Board of Directors may prescribe regulations and procedures with regard to proof of title to the Company’s shares.

(b) subject to the companies Law, an instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed revoked (i) upon receipt by the company or the chairperson, subsequent to receipt by the company of such instrument, of written notice signed by the person signing such instrument or by the shareholder appointing such proxy canceling the appointment thereunder (or the authority pursuant to which such instrument was signed) or of an instrument appointing a different proxy (and such other documents, if any, required under Article 33(b) for such new appointment), provided such notice of cancellation or instrument appointing a different proxy were so received at the place and within the time for delivery of the instrument revoked thereby as referred to in Article 33(b) hereof, or (ii) if the appointing shareholder is present in person at the meeting for which such instrument of proxy was delivered, upon receipt by the chairperson of such meeting of written notice from such shareholder of the revocation of such appointment, or if and when such shareholder votes at such meeting.

Jeffs’ Brands Ltd

7 Mezada St.

Bnei Brak, 5126112

Israel

 

RE: Jeffs’ Brands Ltd

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as Israeli counsel to Jeffs’ Brands Ltd, a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), in connection with the filing by the Company of a registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the resale by the selling shareholders identified in the Registration Statement (the “Selling Shareholders”) of  up to 2,338,403 ordinary shares of the Company, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”) issued or issuable upon the exercise of series A warrants (the “Warrants”), as further described in the Registration Statement. The Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrants are referred herein as the “Warrant Shares”.

 

In connection herewith, we have examined the originals, photocopies or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of: (i) the Registration Statement to which this opinion is attached as an exhibit; (ii) the articles of association of the Company, as currently in effect (the “Articles”); (iii) resolutions of the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company which have heretofore been approved and relate to the Company’s issuance and sale of the Warrants, issuance and/or potential issuance of the Warrant Shares, filing of the Registration Statement and other actions to be taken in connection with such issuance and sale; (iv) copies of the warrant certificates representing the Warrants; and (v) such other corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers of the Company as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereafter set forth. We have also made inquiries of such officers as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereafter set forth.

 

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified copies or confirmed as photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. We have also assumed the truth of all facts communicated to us by the Company and that all minutes of meetings of the Board and the shareholders of the Company that have been provided to us are true and accurate and have been properly prepared in accordance with the Articles and all applicable laws.

 

We have further assumed that at the time of issuance and to the extent any such issuance would exceed the maximum share capital of the Company currently authorized, the number of Ordinary Shares that the Company is authorized to issue shall have been increased in accordance with the Company’s Articles such that a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares are authorized and available for issuance under the Articles.

 

On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion that the Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrant Shares have been duly authorized, and when any Warrant is exercised by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to the terms thereof, the Warrant Shares issuable at that time by the Company to the Selling Shareholders are or will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

Members of our firm are admitted to the Bar in the State of Israel, and we do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. This opinion is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated.

 

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm appearing under the caption “Legal Matters” and “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act, the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder or Item 509 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

 

 

 

 

This opinion letter is rendered as of the date hereof and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or developments that may be brought to our attention after the date of the Registration Statement that may alter, affect or modify the opinions expressed herein.

 

  Very truly yours,
