stockholders under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.
The following table sets forth, based on

position, office or other material relationship, if any, which the selling stockholders have had, within the past three years,

The selling stockholders may offer and
sell the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The selling stockholders will act independently of our company

To our knowledge, the selling stockholders
have no agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to resell the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus.
Offering Price
The sales price offered by the selling
stockholders to the public may be:
|
|
1.
|
the
market price prevailing at the time of sale;
|
|
|
2.
|
a
price related to such prevailing market price; or
|
|
|
3.
|
such
other price as the selling stockholders determine from time to time.
|
Manner of Sale
The ordinary shares may be sold by means
of one or more of the following methods:
|
|
1.
|
a
block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the ordinary shares as agent, but may position and resell
a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
|
|
|
2.
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;
|
|
|
3.
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;
|
|
|
4.
|
through
options, swaps or derivatives;
|
|
|
5.
|
in
transactions to cover short sales;
|
|
|
6.
|
privately
negotiated transactions; or
|
|
|
7.

in
a combination of any of the above methods.
|
The selling stockholders may sell its ordinary
shares directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell its ordinary shares. Brokers or dealers
engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions,
discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of ordinary
shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers
may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved.
Broker-dealers may agree with a selling
stockholders to sell a specified number of shares of ordinary shares at a stipulated price per common share, and, to the extent
the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholders, to purchase as principal any unsold shares of
ordinary shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholders.
Broker-dealers who acquire ordinary shares
as principal may thereafter resell the ordinary shares from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions
and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, on The NASDAQ Capital Market
or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price
or in negotiated transactions. In connection with resales of the ordinary shares, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the
purchasers of shares commissions as described above.
If the selling stockholders enter into
arrangements with brokers or dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker-dealers acting as underwriters.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers
or agents that participate with the selling stockholders in the sale of the ordinary shares may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on
the resale of the ordinary shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities
Act.
Sales Pursuant to Rule 144
Any ordinary shares covered by this prospectus
which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
Regulation M
The selling stockholders must comply with
the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the ordinary shares. In particular we will
advise the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of ordinary
shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and its affiliates. Regulation M under the Exchange Act
prohibits, with certain exceptions, participants in a distribution from bidding for, or purchasing for an account in which the
participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution.
Accordingly, during such times as a selling
stockholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the ordinary shares, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter,
the selling stockholders must comply with applicable law and, among other things:
|
|
1.
|
may
not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our ordinary shares;
|
|
|
2.
|
may
not cover short sales by purchasing ordinary shares while the distribution is taking place; and
|
|
|
3.
|
may
not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as
permitted under the Exchange Act.
|
In addition, we will make copies of this
prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act.
State Securities Laws
Under the securities laws of some states,
the ordinary shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states
the ordinary shares may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from
registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
Expenses of Registration

registration of the ordinary shares. The selling stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers
or dealers in connection with any sale of the ordinary shares.

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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)
|
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
|
(A) Each prospectus
filed by a 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 the 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.
|
(b)
|
The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement 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.
|
|
(c)
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
