PRELIMINARY
PROSPECTUS
MOTOMOVA
INC.
Offer
of up to 44,160,114 shares of common stock offered by the Company
and
up to 83,831,209 shares offered by Selling Stockholders
We
are offering to sell up to 44,160,114 shares of common stock in a self-underwritten primary offering at a fixed price of $___ (the “Direct
Offering”). The total proceeds from the Direct Offering will not be escrowed or segregated but will be available to us immediately.
There is no minimum number of shares required to be purchased, and, therefore, investors who purchase shares will bear the risk that
the Direct Offering will not be fully subscribed and the Company cannot be assured of raising any minimum amount of proceeds from the
Direct Offering. The total proceeds received by the Company may not be sufficient to fully implement its business plan or sustain continued
operations. No commission or other compensation related to the sale of the shares will be paid.
This
prospectus also relates to the offer and sale of up to 83,831,209 shares of common stock by the holders identified in this prospectus
or their assigns (each a “Selling Stockholder” and, collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”), which includes
(i) 51,874,436 shares issued and outstanding held by existing shareholders and (ii) 31,956,773 shares of common stock issuable upon the
conversion of 183,018 Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Company will realize no proceeds from sales of common stock
by the Selling Stockholders.
The
Selling Stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time through public or private transactions, at $
per share, which is the fixed price at which the Selling Stockholders may sell their shares unless and until our common stock is
quoted on the OTCQX or OTCQB tiers of OTC Markets, at which time the shares may be sold at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated
prices. We provide additional information about how the selling stockholder may sell its shares of common stock in the section entitled
“Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus.
The
Selling Stockholders are deemed statutory “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), in connection with the resale or other disposition of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus.
The
Company intends to maintain the current status and accuracy of this prospectus and to allow the Company to offer and sell the shares
for a period of up to two years, unless earlier completely sold or terminated by the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules
and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
All
costs incurred in the registration of the shares offered pursuant to this prospectus, including all registration, listing, and qualification
fees, printing and legal fees, are being borne by the Company.
The
Company does not have any current arrangements nor entered into any agreements with any underwriters, broker-dealers or selling agents
for the sale of the shares in the Direct Offering. If the Company can locate and enter into any such arrangement(s), the shares will
be sold through such licensed underwriter(s), broker-dealer(s) and/or selling agent(s).
The
Company will offer the shares in its Direct Offering directly without payment to any officer or director of any commission or compensation
for the sale of the shares.
Our
common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “MTMV”. On July 14, 2023, the last reported
sale price for our common stock was $2.50 per share. We intend to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTCQB tier of OTC Markets
following the effectiveness of this Registration Statement.

PROSPECTUS
SUMMARY
This
summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary provides an overview of selected information and
does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should read the entire prospectus
carefully, especially the “Risk Factors,” and our financial statements and the accompanying notes to those statements, included

Overview
The
Company develops, manufactures, and supplies an extensive array of testing solutions and instruments relating to the power of motors
for various markets, including electric vehicles and their components, transportation, and the home appliance industries. We offer unique
combined solutions and simulations that integrate our special unique dynamic and static capabilities with traditional dynamometer methods
that measure force or power. Dynamometers are testing benches used to test the physical parameters of the motor-like speed, torque, efficiency
and power of the motor. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had sales of $989,879 and $930,849, respectively.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we had sales of $41,198.
Recent
Developments
On
July 3, 2023, each of Amir Adibi and Menachem Shalom, officers and directors of the Company, lend the Company $32,500. The Company received
an aggregate of $48,750 as a result of the 25% original discount on the loans. The loans bear interest at a rate of 1% per month. In
addition, the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding share capital
to each of Messrs. Adibi and Shalom for each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. If the Company’s common stock is
listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market before July 4, 2024, the lenders have the right to convert the outstanding loan and accrued interest,
into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations, provided,
however that the Company’s effective value to each lender shall not exceed $60,000,000. If the Company is not listed on Nasdaq
by such date, the interest rate on the loan increases to 2% per annum and the loan is due on July 4, 2025.
On
July 3, 2023, the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with Graziani Industries 1992 Ltd. (“Lender”), pursuant
to which Lender agreed to lend $200,000 to the Company with interest at the rate of 8% a year. In the event of an uplist of the Company’s
common stock to NASDAQ Capital Market prior to July 4, 2024, Lender has the right to convert the outstanding loan balance into shares
of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations. If the Company fails
to achieve an uplisting of its common stock before such date, the loan will bear interest at 8% per annum and must be repaid on or before
July 4, 2025. If the loan is not converted to shares, the debt of the Company to Lender is then personally guaranteed by Messrs. Shalom
and Adibi, two directors of the Company.
On
June 20, 2023, The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority notified the Company that the name change of the Company took effect on the
over-the-counter market as of June 21, 2023, at which time, the ticker symbol for the Company’s common stock officially changed
to “MTMV”.
On
June 19, 2023, the Company and MEA entered into a convertible loan agreement with five shareholders and/or affiliates. Pursuant to the
convertible loan agreement, the shareholders lend an aggregate of approximately $93,889. The loans bear interest at a rate of 1% per
month. In addition, the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding
share capital to each of the lending shareholder for each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. If the Company’s common
stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market before June 20, 2024, the shareholders have the right to convert the outstanding loan and
accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain
limitations. If the Company is not listed on Nasdaq by such date, the interest rate on the loan increases to 2% per annum and the loan
is due on June 20, 2025.
On
June 15, 2023, MEA entered into a credit agreement with Bank Hapoalim, an Israeli bank, pursuant to which MEA received a 6-month loan
of NIS 500,000. Interest on the line of credit accrued at the Israel Bank’s Prime Rate (currently 6.25%) plus 2.25% per annum.
The credit agreement is secured by a lien on all of MEA’s assets and by unlimited personal guarantees of each of the Company’s
directors.
Since
the Company’s directors (Menachem Shalom, Amir Adibi and Doron Yom Tov) were required to sign an unlimited personal guarantee to
secure the loan from Bank Hapoalim and to secure all other, existing and future, loans and credit provided to the Company and/or to MEA,
the Company agreed to issue to each director or his designee, per month, the number of shares equal to approximately 0.05% of the outstanding
shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis, per each NIS100,000 of debt secured by that director. That applies to the debt provided
by Grazaini Industries as mentioned above.
On
June 12, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary
of State changing its name to Motomova Inc.
During
the end of 2022 through January 2023, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 304,878 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were exercised
by affiliates of the Company, generating an aggregate of $1,000,000 gross proceeds to the Company.
On
December 23, 2022, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary
of State of Delaware, changing the total number of its authorized capital stock to 501,000,000, which includes 500,000,000 shares of
common stock, par value $0.0001 par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
On
November 7, 2022, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary
of State of the State of Delaware, changing the voting and conversion rates of the 6% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (“Series
A Preferred Stock”) to be in accordance with the voting and conversion rates of the preferred shares of MEA which were exchanged
for preferred shares of the Company. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock votes 174.61 shares of common stock and is convertible to
174.61 shares of common stock of the Company.
On
October 6, 2022, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement dated July 26, 2022, with MEA
and shareholders representing approximately 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of MEA (the “MEA Shareholders”), pursuant
to which the MEA Shareholders agreed to exchange all of their shares in MEA for newly issued shares of the Company. In accordance with
the Share Exchange Agreement, each outstanding ordinary share of MEA was exchanged for 34.92 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001
per share, of the Company, and every 5 outstanding preferred shares of MEA was exchanged for 1 newly issued share of Series A Preferred
Stock of the Company. Each preferred share of MEA is convertible to 174.61 shares of common stock of MEA and has the other rights and
designations identical to those held by the preferred shareholders of MEA immediately prior to the Closing. At the closing, all the outstanding
warrants issued by MEA exercisable, for an aggregate of 305,848 warrants, were exchanged for an identical number of warrants exercisable
for the identical number of preferred shares of Motomova, all of which warrants have since been exercised and are no longer outstanding.
As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, MEA became a subsidiary of the Company.
On
September 28, 2022, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, authorizing 1,000,000 shares of ‘blank check’ preferred stock and other corporate changes. The amended and restated
certificate also authorized the issuance of 800,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
On
March 15, 2022, Optima Fintech Management Ltd., a company formed under the laws of the State of Israel (“Optima”), which
is beneficially owned and controlled by Menachem Shalom and Amir Adibi, two of our officers and directors, purchased 17,000,000 shares
of our common stock from James Fitzsimons, former CEO of the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement
dated February 23, 2022, among Optima, Mr. Fitzsimons, and the Company. As a result of the purchase, Optima controls the majority of
the power of the Company’s outstanding voting securities.
Risks
Associated with Our Business
Our
business and ability to execute our business strategy are subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before you decide
to buy our common stock. In particular, you should consider the following risks, which are discussed more fully in the section entitled
“Risk Factors” in this prospectus, as well as the other risks described in the section captioned “Risk Factors.”
|
● |
We
have incurred significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
will need substantial additional funding to continue our operations, which could result in significant dilution or restrictions on
our business activities. We may not be able to raise capital when needed, if at all, which would force us to delay, reduce or eliminate
our product development programs or commercialization efforts and could cause our business to fail. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
have outstanding convertible notes and convertible preferred stock, which may result in substantial dilution to our shareholders
if we are unable to repay such loans through cash flow from operations and the conversion rights are exercised. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
will need to grow the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing any growth we may achieve. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Our
independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. |
|
|
|
|
● |
If
our efforts to protect the proprietary nature of our technologies are not adequate, we may not be able to compete effectively in our
market and our business would be harmed. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
patent protection covering some of our product candidates has expired which may affect our differentiation and uniqueness in the
market which, in return, has significantly negative effective on or business. |
|
|
|
|
● |
If
we are not able to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Our
share price has been, is expected to continue to be volatile and may be influenced by numerous factors, some of which are beyond
our control. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Our
offices are headquartered in Israel and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by economic restrictions imposed on, and
political and military instability in, Israel. |
|
|
|
|
● |
There
has been no public market for our common stock and an active trading market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained after
this offering. The lack of a public market may impair the value of shares of our common stock and the ability to sell them at any time. |

Our
principal executive offices are located at 353 West 48th St., 4th Floor, Unit #292, New York, NY 10036. We have signed a lease agreement

Our telephone number is 646-257-4214. Our website address is www.meatesting.com. Information contained in, or that can be accessed through,
our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and you should not consider information on our website to be part
of this prospectus.
Emerging
Growth Company
We
are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier
of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common stock pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross
revenues of $1 billion or more; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous
three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under applicable SEC rules. We expect that we will
remain an emerging growth company for the foreseeable future but cannot retain our emerging growth company status indefinitely and will
no longer qualify as an emerging growth company as described above. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the
meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely
on exemptions from specified disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
These
exemptions include:
|
● |
being
permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements,
with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”
disclosure; |
|
|
|
|
● |
not
being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls over financial reporting; |
|
|
|
|
● |
not
being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory
audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial
statements; |
|
|
|
|
● |
reduced
disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
not
being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments
not previously approved. |
For
as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we expect that we will take advantage of the reduced disclosure obligations
available to us as a result of that classification. We have taken advantage of certain of those reduced reporting burdens in this prospectus.
Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which
you hold stock.
An
emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for
complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting
standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected to avail ourselves of this extended
transition period and, as a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the dates on which adoption
of such standards is required for other public reporting companies.
To
the extent that we continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the
Exchange Act, after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company, certain of the exemptions available to us as an emerging growth
company may continue to be available to us as a smaller reporting company, including: (1) not being required to comply with the auditor
attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act; (2) scaled executive compensation disclosures; and (3) the requirement
to provide only two years of audited financial statements, instead of three years.

SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS OFFERING
The
Selling Stockholders set forth herein, who are deemed to be statutory underwriters, are offering shares of the Company’s
common stock, consisting of (i) 46,774,436 common shares issued to the shareholders of MEA pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the Share Exchange Agreement, (ii) 5,100,000 shares which are held by Optima and (iii) 31,956,773 shares issuable upon the
conversion of 183,018 Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Company will realize no proceeds from sales by the
Selling Stockholders or from the conversion of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. The registration of the shares of our
common stock for the Selling Stockholders does not necessarily mean that any shares of our common stock will be sold by any of the
Selling Stockholders, and we cannot predict when or in what amounts any of the Selling Stockholders may sell any of our shares of
common stock offered by this prospectus. It also does not mean that the Series A Preferred Stock will be converted. See the section
of this prospectus entitled “Selling Stockholders” for additional information about the Selling Stockholders. The
Selling Stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time through public or private transactions, at $__________ per share, which is the fixed price at which the Selling Stockholders may sell their shares unless and until our common
stock is quoted on the OTCQX or OTCQB tiers of OTC Markets, at which time the shares may be sold at prevailing market prices or
privately negotiated prices. The Company is paying for all registration, listing and qualification fees, printing fees and legal
fees.
Lock
Up Agreements
In
connection with the Share Exchange with MEA, each of the Selling Stockholders holding in the aggregate 46,774,436 shares of common stock
of the Company acquired in connection with the Share Exchange executed a Leak Out and Resale Restriction Agreement with the Company.
Pursuant to said agreement, each stockholder agreed not to transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly the shares
of the Company for a period of 270 trading days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms
a part, and to limit the sale of shares during the twelve months thereafter to (i) up to 3% of the Selling Stockholder’s shares
per 30-day period on a non-cumulative basis during the first six months of such twelve-month period, and (ii) up to 6% of the Selling
Stockholder’s shares per 30-day period on a non-cumulative basis during the next six months of such twelve-month period. In addition,
the Selling Stockholders are prohibited from selling more than an aggregate of 75% of its shares prior to October 6, 2024, which is the
second anniversary of the Leak Out and Resale Restriction Agreement.

current uncertain economic environment and inflationary conditions may adversely affect global vehicle production and demand for our
solutions.
Our
business depends on, and is directly affected by, the global automobile industry. Economic conditions in North America, Europe and Asia
can have a large impact on the production volume of new vehicles, and, accordingly, have an impact on our revenue. Automotive production
and sales are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences,
changes in interest rate levels and credit availability, consumer confidence and purchasing power, energy and fuel costs, fuel availability,
environmental impact, governmental incentives, regulatory requirements, and political volatility, especially in energy-producing countries
and growth markets. In addition, automotive production and sales can be affected by our customers’ ability to continue operating
in response to challenging economic conditions, such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in response to labor relations issues
and shortages, supply chain disruptions, regulatory requirements, trade agreements and other factors. Moreover, automakers continue to
face supply chain shortages, and we expect that global vehicle production will not fully recover from the impact of supply chain constraints
in 2022 and 2023. Furthermore, current uncertain economic conditions and inflation may contribute to a reduction in consumer demand,
which may reduce vehicle production over at least the next several quarters.
In
addition to these general economic factors, uncertainties in specific markets may further contribute to lower vehicle production. For
example, the disruption by Russia of gas supplies to Western Europe could significantly impact industrial production, including vehicle
production, in significant markets such as Germany. We cannot predict when the impact of these factors on global vehicle production will
substantially diminish. We believe that the expected continued constraint on global automotive production resulting from supply chain
shortages and the effect of economic uncertainty will limit our ability to sustain or increase our revenue. More generally, the volume
of automotive production in North America, Europe, China, and the rest of the world has fluctuated, sometimes significantly, from year
to year, for many reasons, and such fluctuations give rise to fluctuations in the demand for our solutions. As a result, in addition
to the impact of the current uncertainties that we anticipate to impact automotive production in the near term, adverse changes in economic
or market conditions or other factors, including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, the bankruptcy of any of our customers
or the closure of OEM manufacturing facilities may result in a reduction in automotive sales and production, and could have an adverse
effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We
are subject to risks related to trade policies, sanctions, and import and export controls.
Trade
policies and international disputes at times result in increased tariffs, trade barriers and other restrictions, which can increase our
manufacturing costs, make our solutions less competitive, reduce demand for our solutions, limit our ability to sell to certain customers,
limit our ability to procure components or raw materials or impede or slow the movement of our goods across borders. Increasing protectionism
and economic nationalism may lead to further changes in trade policies and regulations, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal
and informal measures.
Likewise,
national security and foreign policy concerns may prompt governments to impose trade or other restrictions, which could make it more
difficult to sell our solutions in, or restrict our access to, certain markets. In this regard, our business activities are subject to
various trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s
Office of Foreign Assets Control’s sanctions programs and the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of
Commerce. These rules may prohibit or restrict our ability to, directly or indirectly, conduct activities or dealings in or with certain
countries or involving certain persons, or otherwise affect our business. While we believe that current U.S. sanctions do not materially
impede our ability to conduct our current business, new sanctions imposed by the United States, the European Union or other countries
may restrict certain of our operations and negatively affect our revenue and profitability in the future. Although we take steps to comply
with applicable laws and regulations, our failure to successfully comply with applicable sanctions or export control rules may expose
us to negative legal and business consequences, including civil or criminal penalties and government investigations.
In
particular, in response to Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine, the United States, the European Union, and several other countries
are imposing far-reaching sanctions and export control restrictions on Russian entities and individuals. See “— The current
conflict between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated market instability and disrupted the global economy.”
Additionally,
tensions between the United States and China have led to increased tariffs and trade restrictions, including tariffs applicable to some
of our solutions, and have affected customer ordering patterns. In addition to imposing economic sanctions on certain Chinese individuals
and entities, the United States has imposed restrictions on the export of U.S.-regulated products and technology to certain Chinese technology
companies, including certain of our customers. Future restrictions could adversely affect our financial performance, result in reputational
harm to us due to our relationship with such companies or lead such companies to develop or adopt technologies that compete with our
solutions. It is difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and
additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice, and we may be unable to quickly and effectively react to
or mitigate such actions.
Trade
disputes and protectionist measures, or continued uncertainty about such matters, could result in declining consumer confidence and slowing
economic growth or recession, and could cause our customers to reduce, cancel, or alter the timing of their purchases with us. Sustained
geopolitical tensions could lead to long-term changes in global trade and technology supply chains, and decoupling of global trade networks,
which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Given
our international supply chain and distribution, we are subject to import and export laws of multiple countries. Failure to comply with
the requirements of such laws may lead to the imposition of additional taxes or duties on imports or exports, fines, or penalties.
If
we are unable to protect our proprietary information or other intellectual property, Motomova’s business could be adversely affected.
We
have no copyright, trademark or other intellectual property protection. We also do not have contractual restrictions, including through
confidentiality, non-disclosure and assignment of copyright or invention assignment agreements with our employees to establish,
maintain and protect Motomova’s proprietary information and other intellectual property. Motomova may not be able to efficiently
detect and prevent all misappropriation, unauthorized use or reverse engineering its proprietary information and other intellectual property.
Even if we have such protection, for example, contractual restrictions, such provisions may be breached, and we may not succeed in enforcing
its rights or have adequate remedies for any breach of laws or contractual restrictions. Moreover, Motomova’s trade secrets may
be disclosed to or otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors, and in these situations we may have no or limited
rights to stop others’ use of its information. Furthermore, to the extent that the employees or other third parties with
whom we do business use intellectual property owned by others in their work for Motomova, disputes may arise as to the rights to such
intellectual property. If, for any of the above reasons, our intellectual property is disclosed or misappropriated, it would have an
adverse effect on Motomova’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The
current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated market instability and disrupted the global economy.
The
current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has caused uncertainty about economic and political stability, increasing volatility in the
credit and financial markets and disrupting the global economy. The United States, the European Union, and several other countries are
imposing far-reaching sanctions and export control restrictions on Russian entities and individuals. These measures could constrain our
ability to work with Russian companies or individuals in connection with the development of our solutions in the future. These sanctions
and export controls may also contribute to higher oil and gas prices and inflation, which could reduce demand in the global automotive
sector and therefore reduce demand for our solutions. There is also a risk that Russia, as a retaliatory action to sanctions, may launch
cyberattacks against the United States, the European Union, or other countries or their infrastructures and businesses. Additional consequences
of the conflict may include diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth,
and various shortages and supply chain disruptions. While we do not currently directly rely on goods or services sourced in Russia or
Ukraine and thus have not experienced any direct disruptions, we may experience indirect disruptions in our supply chain. Any of the
foregoing factors, including developments or effects that we cannot yet predict, may adversely affect our business, results of operations,
and financial condition.
Risks
Relating to Our Israel Operations
Our
offices are headquartered in Israel and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by economic restrictions imposed on, and political
and military instability in, Israel.
Our
offices, which house substantially all of our research and development team, including engineers, machinists, researchers as well as
the facility of our manufacturing and assembly are located in Israel. Our employees, directors and officers are residents of Israel.
Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business. Any hostilities
involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade within Israel or between Israel and its trading partners could materially
and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital.
An extended interruption could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Recent
political uprisings, social unrest and violence in various countries in the Middle East and North Africa, including Israel’s neighbors
Egypt and Syria, are affecting the political stability of those countries. This instability may lead to deterioration of the political
relationships, if any, that exist between Israel and these countries and has raised concerns regarding security in the region and the
potential for armed conflict. Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the
security situation in the Middle East. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. In
addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and is widely believed to be developing nuclear weapons. Iran is also believed to have
a strong influence among parties hostile to Israel in areas that neighbor Israel, such as the Syrian government, Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah
in Lebanon. Any armed conflicts, terrorist activities or political instability in the region could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
The
legislative power of the State of Israel resides in the Knesset, a unicameral parliament that consists of 120 members elected by nationwide
voting under a system of proportional representation. Israel has held six general elections in the last five years (on April 9,
2019, September 17, 2019, March 2, 2020, March 23, 2021, November 1, 2022, and March 2, 2023) due to the difficulty of forming
a stable government under the conditions of Israel’s parliamentary system. The uncertainty surrounding future elections and/or
the results of such elections in Israel may continue and the political situation in Israel may further deteriorate. Actual or perceived
political instability in Israel or any negative changes in the political environment, may individually or in the aggregate adversely
affect the Israeli economy and, in turn, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Furthermore,
the Israeli government has recently been pursuing legislative changes which, if adopted, will alter the current state of separation of
powers among the three branches of government and, as a result, have sparked a considerable political debate. Many individuals, organizations
and institutions, within and outside of Israel, have voiced concerns over the potential negative impacts of such changes and the controversy
surrounding them on the business and financial environment in Israel. Such negative impacts may include, among others, a downgrade in
Israel’s sovereign credit rating, increased interest rates, currency fluctuations, inflation, civil unrest and volatility in securities
markets, which could adversely affect the conditions in which we operate and potentially deter foreign investors and organizations from
investing or transacting business in Israel. If any of the foregoing risks were to materialize, it may have an adverse effect on our
business, our results of operations and our ability to raise additional funds.
Our
operations may be disrupted as a result of the obligation of Israeli citizens to perform military service.
Many
Israeli citizens are obligated to perform one month, and in some cases more, of annual military reserve duty until they reach the age
of 45 (or older, for reservists with certain occupations) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In
response to terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will
be additional military reserve duty call-ups in the future in connection with this conflict or otherwise. Some of our employees, consultants
and employees of the manufacturer of our products, are required to perform annual military reserve duty in Israel and may be called to
active duty at any time under emergency circumstances. Our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups.
Our
sales may be adversely affected by boycotts of Israel.
Several
countries, principally in the Middle East, restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, and additional countries may impose
restrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies whether as a result of hostilities in the region or otherwise. In addition,
there have been increased efforts by activists to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods based on Israeli government
policies. Such actions, particularly if they become more widespread, may adversely impact our ability to sell our products.
We
are subject to material risks related to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Currently,
our revenues from Israeli customers are collected in NIS. Most of our customers are based outside of Israeli and they pay us mostly in
USD and EUR. Some of our overhead expenses are paid in NIS and some are paid in USD and EUR. Cost of row materials purchased and used
by us is paid in NIS, USD and EUR. We face foreign currency rate translation risks when our results are translated to U.S. dollars or
to Euros.
The
exchange rate between NIS and USD, and between NIS and EUR, has recently experience fluctuations as a result of political and economic
developments in both Israel and internationally. As of December 31, 2022, the NIS was approximately 3.52 to the US$1.00 and approximately
3.66 to the EUR €3.66 after having been stronger over a period of several years, which has materially and adversely affected our
revenues in NIS. There can be no assurance that such exchange rate will stabilize in the future amongst the volatility of currencies,
globalization and the unstable economies in recent years. Since our revenues and net income are denominated in NIS, any decrease in the
value of NIS against U.S. dollars and/or the Euro would adversely affect our revenues.
Risks
Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock
If
securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price
and trading volume could decline.
The
trading market for our common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about
us or our business, which research and reports are not and would not be subject to our control. We currently do not have and may never
obtain research coverage by securities analysts, and industry analysts that currently cover us may cease to do so. If no securities analysts
commence coverage of our company, or if industry analysts cease coverage of our company, the trading price for our stock could be
materially and adversely impacted. In the event we obtain securities analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover
us downgrade our stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price may be materially and adversely
impacted. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock
could decrease, which might cause our stock price and trading volume to decline.
An
active, liquid trading market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained. If and when an active market develops, the price
of our common stock may be volatile.
Presently,
our common stock is traded on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “MTMV”. There is limited trading in our stock and,
in the absence of an active trading market, investors may have difficulty buying and selling or obtaining market quotations, market visibility
for shares of our common stock may be limited, and a lack of visibility for shares of our common stock may have a depressive effect on
the market price for shares of our common stock.
The
lack of an active market impairs your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable.
The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your shares. An inactive market may also impair our ability to
raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares. Holders of our common stock may, therefore, have difficulty selling their
common stock, should they decide to do so. In addition, there can be no assurances that such markets will continue or that any shares
of common stock will be able to be sold without incurring a loss. Any such market price of the common stock may not necessarily bear
any relationship to our book value, assets, past operating results, financial condition or any other established criteria of value, and
may not be indicative of the market price for the common stock in the future. Further, the market price for the common stock may be volatile
depending on a number of factors, including business performance, industry dynamics, news announcements or changes in general.
Although
we intend to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTCQB tier of OTC Markets, there can be no assurances that such application
will be approved. Further, even if such application is approved, there may be no active market in our common stock. Trading in stocks
quoted on the OTCQB is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors that may have little
to do with our operations or business prospects. The securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume
fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially
and adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock. Moreover, the OTCQB is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities
is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like Nasdaq or a national stock exchange like the
NYSE. Accordingly, even if our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB, stockholders may have difficulty reselling any shares of common stock.
The
trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.
The
trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. This may happen
because of broad market and industry factors, including the performance and fluctuation of the market prices of other companies with
business operations located outside of the United States. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for
our common stock may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following:
|
● |
variations
in our revenues, earnings and cash flow; |
|
|
|
|
● |
announcements
of new investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures by us or our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
● |
announcements
of new offerings, solutions and expansions by us or our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
● |
changes
in financial estimates by securities analysts; |
|
|
|
|
● |
detrimental
adverse publicity about us, our brand, our services or our industry; |
|
|
|
|
● |
additions
or departures of key personnel; |
|
|
|
|
● |
sales
of additional equity securities; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
potential
litigation or regulatory investigations. |
Any
of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our common stock will trade.
In
the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods
of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount
of our management’s attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses
to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our
reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be
required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
If
you purchase our securities in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares. You
will experience further dilution if we issue additional equity or equity-linked securities in the future.
The
public offering price per share of our common stock will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common
stock immediately prior to the offering. After giving effect to the sale of 44,160,114 shares of our common stock in this offering, at
the assumed public offering price of $_____ per share, which is the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTC Pink
Marketplace on July __, 2023, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses
payable by us, purchasers of our common stock in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $_____ per share in the net tangible
book value of the common stock they acquire. For a further description of the dilution that investors in this offering may experience,
see “Dilution.”
We
have various outstanding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market.
As
of the date of this prospectus, we owed approximately $621,461.19 under various convertible promissory notes, which are convertible at
a 40% discount to our public offering price in any NASDAQ uplisting which we may undertake. As a result, any conversion of the convertible
notes and sale of shares of common stock issuable in connection with the conversion thereof may cause the value of our common stock to
decline in value, as described in greater detail under the Risk Factors below. Notwithstanding the above, we hope to repay the convertible
notes in full before any conversions take place.
The
issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes may depress the market price of our common stock.
If
sequential conversions of the convertible notes and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline,
and as a result, the holders of the convertible notes will be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares in connection with conversions,
which shares could then be sold in the market, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, to
the detriment of our investors. The shares of common stock which the convertible notes are convertible into may be sold without restriction
pursuant to Rule 144. As a result, the sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.
In
addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the
market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there
is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders
attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. The convertible notes will be convertible into shares of our
common stock at a discount to market as described above, and such discount to market provides the holders with the ability to sell their
common stock at or below market and still make a profit. In the event of such overhang, the note holders will have an incentive to sell
their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value
of our common stock will likely decrease. Notwithstanding the above, we hope to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions
take place.
A
decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise any required working capital and adversely impact our operations.
A
decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability
to raise any required capital for our operations. Because we intend to fund the Company in the future primarily through the sale of equity
securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could have an adverse effect upon our liquidity and our continued operations.
A reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future may have a material adverse effect upon our business plan and operations.
If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our
obligations.
The
large number of shares eligible for immediate and future sales may depress the price of our stock.
As
of the date of this Prospectus we have 76,347,992 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 3,280,000 shares are “free trading”
and may serve to overhang the market and depress the price of our common stock. In addition, we have 610,061 shares of Preferred Stock
issued and outstanding, which are convertible to 106,522,751 shares of common stock.
“Penny
Stock” rules may make buying or selling our common stock difficult. Limitations upon Broker-Dealers Effecting Transactions in “Penny
Stocks”
Trading
in our common stock is subject to material limitations as a consequence of regulations which limit the activities of broker-dealers effecting
transactions in “penny stocks.” Pursuant to Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act, our common stock is a “penny stock”
because it (i) is not listed on any national securities exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market™, (ii) has a market price of less than
$5.00 per share, and (iii) its issuer (the Company) has net tangible assets less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in business
for at least three (3) years) or $5,000,000 (if the issuer has been in business for less than three (3) years).
Rule
15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act imposes limitations upon trading activities on “penny stocks”, which makes selling
our common stock more difficult compared to selling securities which are not “penny stocks.” Rule 15a-9 restricts the solicitation
of sales of “penny stocks” by broker-dealers unless the broker first (i) obtains from the purchaser information concerning
his financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives, (ii) reasonably determines that the purchaser has sufficient
knowledge and experience in financial matters that the person is capable of evaluating the risks of investing in “penny stocks”,
and (iii) delivers and receives back from the purchaser a manually signed written statement acknowledging the purchaser’s investment
experience and financial sophistication.
Rules
15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated under the Exchange Act require broker-dealers who engage in transactions in “penny stocks”
first to provide their customers with a series of disclosures and documents, including (i) a standardized risk disclosure document identifying
the risks inherent in investing in “penny stocks”, (ii) all compensation received by the broker-dealer in connection with
the transaction, (iii) current quotation prices and other relevant market data, and (iv) monthly account statements reflecting the fair
market value of the securities.
There
can be no assurance that any broker-dealer which initiates quotations for the Common Stock will continue to do so, and the loss of any
such broker-dealer likely would have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
FINRA
sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
In
addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment
to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to
recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain
information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations
of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least
some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock,
which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
Because
our common stock is deemed a low-priced “penny stock,” it will be cumbersome for brokers and dealers to trade in our common
stock, making the market for our common stock less liquid and negatively affect the price of our stock.
We
will be subject to certain provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), commonly referred to as
the “penny stock” rules as defined in Rule 3a51-1. A penny stock is generally defined to be any equity security that has
a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Since our stock is deemed to be a penny stock, trading is subject
to additional sales practice requirements of broker-dealers. These require a broker-dealer to:
|
● |
Deliver
to the customer, and obtain a written receipts for, a disclosure document; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Disclose
certain price information about the stock; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Disclose
the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Send
monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
In
some circumstances, approve the purchaser’s account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer
with information specified in the rules. |
Consequently,
penny stock rules and FINRA rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our
common stock. Also, prospective investors may not want to get involved with the additional administrative requirements, which may have
a material adverse effect on the trading of our shares.
We
have paid no dividends and have no plans to do so.
We
never have paid any dividends on our common stock and we do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently,
you may receive little or no return on your investment.
The
ownership by our officers and directors of Series A Preferred Stock provides them with majority voting power over the Company.
Through
their ownership of Optima and their control of other entities, Doron Yom-Tov, Menachem Shalom, and Amir Adibi, beneficially have current
voting control of approximately 67.57% of the Company. This percentage includes the 488,038 shares of Series A Preferred Stock beneficially
owned by Messrs. Yom-Tov, Shalom, and Adibi. The vote of each share of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock is equal to and counted as
174.61 shares of our common stock Accordingly, our officers and directors exercise control in determining the outcome of all corporate
transactions or other matters, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of
our assets, the power to prevent or cause a change in control and to determine the outcome of most matters submitted to a vote of our
shareholders. The interests of Messrs. Yom_Tov, Shalom, and Adibi may differ from the interests of the other shareholders and thus result
in corporate decisions that are adverse to other shareholders. This preferred share structure severely restricts other shareholders’
ability to influence corporate matters and Messrs. Shalom and Adibi may take actions that some of our shareholders do not view as beneficial,
each of which could reduce the market price of our securities.
Our
Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our common stock, which shares may cause substantial dilution to our existing
shareholders.
As
of the date of this prospectus, we have 610,061 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, which are convertible
into 106,522,751 shares of our common stock (representing 58.25% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock immediately
following such conversion).
We
have the right to issue shares of preferred stock. If we were to issue preferred stock, it is likely to have rights, preferences and
privileges that may adversely affect the common stock.
We
are authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with such rights, preferences and privileges as
may be determined from time-to-time by our board of directors. We currently have 610,061 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding,
which are convertible to 106,522,751 shares of common stock and vote at the rate of 174.61 per share. Accordingly, our board of directors
is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue an additional 389,939 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, and to fix
for any series the dividend rights, dissolution or liquidation preferences, redemption prices, conversion rights, voting rights, and
other rights, preferences and privileges for the preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, depending on the rights,
preferences and privileges attributable to the preferred stock, could adversely reduce the voting rights and powers of the common stock
and the portion of the Company’s assets allocated for distribution to common stockholders in a liquidation event, and could also
result in dilution in the book value per share of the common stock we are offering. The preferred stock could also be utilized, under
certain circumstances, as a method for raising additional capital or discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the
Company, to the detriment of the investors in the common stock offered hereby. We cannot assure you that the Company will not, under
certain circumstances, issue shares of its preferred stock.
We
may allocate the net proceeds from this offering in ways which differ from our estimates based on our current plans and assumptions discussed
in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” and with which you may not agree.
The
allocation of net proceeds of the offering set forth in the “Use of Proceeds” section below represents our estimates based
upon our current plans and assumptions regarding industry and general economic conditions, our future revenues and expenditures. The
amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including market conditions, cash generated by our operations,
business developments and related rate of growth. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds from this offering
for other purposes. Circumstances that may give rise to a change in the use of proceeds and the alternate purposes for which the proceeds
may be used are discussed in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds” below. You may not have an opportunity to evaluate the
economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use our proceeds. As a result, you and other shareholders
may not agree with our decisions. See “Use of Proceeds” for additional information.
Management
will have substantial discretion over the use of the proceeds of this Offering and may not choose to use it effectively.
We
plan to use the proceeds from this Offering as set forth in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds.” Our management will have
significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this Offering and may apply the proceeds in ways with which you do not agree.
The failure of our management to apply these funds effectively could materially harm our business.
It
may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us, our officers and directors and the foreign persons named in this registration
statement in the United States or in foreign countries, or to assert U.S. securities laws claims in foreign countries or serve process
on our officers and directors and these experts.
While
we are incorporated in the State of Delaware, currently all of our directors and executive officers are not residents of the United States
and are located outside of the United States. The majority of our assets are located outside the United States. Therefore, it may be
difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to enforce a U.S. court judgment based upon the civil liability provisions
of the U.S. federal securities laws against us or any of these persons in a U.S. or foreign court, or to effect service of process upon
these persons in the United States. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to assert U.S.
securities law claims in original actions instituted in foreign countries. Foreign courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation
of U.S. securities laws on the grounds that foreign countries are not necessary the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim.
Even if a foreign court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that foreign law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S.
law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly
process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by foreign countries law. There is little binding case law in foreign countries
addressing the matters described above.
We
have not adopted various corporate governance measures, and as a result, stockholders may have limited protections against interested
director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
Federal
legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed
to promote the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets. Because our securities are not yet listed on a national
securities exchange, we are not required to adopt these corporate governance measures and have not done so voluntarily in order to avoid
incurring the additional costs associated with such measures. Furthermore, the absence of the governance measures referred to above with
respect to our Company may leave our stockholders with more limited protection in connection with interested director transactions, conflicts
of interest and similar matters.
Limitations
on director and officer liability and indemnification of our officers and directors by us may discourage stockholders from bringing suit
against a director.
Our
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide, with certain exceptions as permitted by governing state law, that
a director or officer shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. This may limit
stockholders from bringing a suit against a director and increase the risk of an investment in our company.
Our
independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our
historical financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered
public accounting firm has issued a report on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, that included
an explanatory paragraph referring to our recurring operating losses and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a
going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity financing or other
capital, attain further operating efficiencies, reduce expenditures, and, ultimately, generate revenue. Our financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However, if adequate funds are not available to us when
we need it, we will be required to curtail our operations which would, in turn, further raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern. The doubt regarding our potential ability to continue as a going concern may adversely affect our ability
to obtain new financing on reasonable terms or at all. Additionally, if we are unable to continue as a going concern, our stockholders
may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.
SPECIAL
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus contains “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements reflect the current view about future events.
When used in this prospectus, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate
to us or our management, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained
in this prospectus relating to our business strategy, our future operating results and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forward-looking
statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because
forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances
that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They
are neither statements of historical fact nor looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, a continued decline in general economic conditions nationally
and internationally; market acceptance of our products; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement
actions or other litigation brought against us; competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize
new and improved products; our ability to raise capital to fund continuing operations; changes in government regulation; our ability
to complete customer transactions and capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of
this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations and any businesses
that may be acquired by us. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Factors
or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of
them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law we do
not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
MARKET
AND INDUSTRY DATA
This
prospectus contains estimates, projections and other information concerning our industry, our business and the markets for our products,
including data regarding the estimated size of such markets. We obtained the industry, market and similar data set forth in this prospectus
from our internal estimates and research and from industry research, publications, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. In
some cases, we do not expressly refer to the sources from which this data is derived. Information that is based on estimates, forecasts,
projections, market research or similar methodologies is inherently subject to uncertainties and actual events or circumstances may differ
materially from events and circumstances that are assumed in this information. While we believe our internal research is reliable, such
research has not been verified by any third party. You are cautioned not to give undue weight to any such information, projections and
estimates.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We
estimate that the net proceeds of this offering will be $44,090,114 from the sale of our common stock in this Offering assuming a public
offering price of $1.00 per share of common stock, after deducting the estimated fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us in
the amount of $70,000. These amounts below assumes the sale of all of the shares being offered hereunder at $1.00 per share, of which
there is no guarantee. The table below depicts how we plan to utilize the net proceeds in the event that 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of the
shares in this Offering are sold, after deducting estimated offering expenses of $70,000 payable by us.

We
intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for marketing and sales (approximately 35% of said proceeds), create additional products
(30%), expand our current manufacturing capabilities (20%) and general corporate purposes (15%), including working capital. This expected
use of our net proceeds from this Offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could
change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly
depending on numerous factors, including any unforeseen cash needs.
As
a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this Offering, and investors will
be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds from this offering. The timing and amount
of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations and the anticipated growth of our business.
Any
funds we raise in this offering will be immediately available for our use and will not be returned to investors. We will not maintain
an escrow, trust, or similar account for the receipt of proceeds from the sale of our shares.
DILUTION
If
you purchase shares of common stock in this Offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public
offering price per share and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this Offering. Our net tangible book value
(deficit) as of June 30, 2022 was $(902,793), or $(0.005) per share of common stock (based upon 76,347,992 outstanding shares of common
stock as of June 30, 2023, and the full conversion of all 610,061 Preferred A shares into 106,522,751 common shares). “Net tangible
book value (deficit)” is total assets minus the sum of liabilities and intangible assets. “Net tangible book value (deficit)
per share” is net tangible book value (deficit) divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.
After
giving effect to the sale by us in this offering of 44,160,114 shares at a public offering price of $1.00 and after deducting the estimated
offering costs payable by us, our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2022, would have been ($1,560,011), or $ USD (0.022) per
share of common stock. This amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $
per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $
per share to purchasers in this offering.
The
following tables illustrate the per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of, respectively, 100%, 75%, 50%,

OUR
BUSINESS
Overview
The Company develops,
manufactures and supplies an extensive array of solutions and instruments for testing the power of motors for various markets, such as
electric vehicles and their components, transportation and home appliance industries. We offer unique combined solutions and simulations
that integrate our special unique dynamic and static capabilities with traditional dynamometer methods that measure force or power. Dynamometers
are testing benches used to test the physical parameters of the motor-like speed, torque, efficiency and power of the motor. For the
years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had sales of $989,879 and $930,849, respectively. For the quarter ended March
31, 2023, we had sales of $41,198.
We manufacture two types of dynamometers, a classic industry product
as well as one we developed. The Regenerative Dynamometer System (RDS) is the classic industry product, in which a motor is used in order
to load the motor being tested. The loading motor is used to bring the tested motor to full speed and then forces are applied on the tested
motor to test the power, speed, torque and efficiency of the motor. During the application of those forces, the parameters and indicators
of the tested motor are measured and used to evaluate its condition and performance.

|
|
The
second dynamometer we developed is the proprietary Inertial Dynamometer System (IDS). This product allows a motor to be tested without
a loading motor; this saves time, money and resources. The IDS provides similar testing performance capabilities as the RDS by “calculating”
the performance indicators of the tested engine based on parameters measured during the acceleration and declaration phases of the motor.
The IDS can be used to test any electric motor, but it saves the need of a loading motor. Clients mainly request the IDS to test “special”
motors – very small or very large motors or motors that are very strong or very fast – where loading motors are unavailable. |
In
addition, the Company develops and offers additional testing solutions for additional components or parts that connect to the motor like
batteries (power supply) and gear.
Our
products can be used to test all types of electric motors, both in the transportation market and for industrial applications. In addition,
they can be used in the design and planning phase of a motor (in the lab) for R&D purposes or in production mode, known as End of
Line testing (EOL). Some of the Company products are used by Official Standards Institutes and Educational Institutes.
The
Company’s customers have been vehicle or motor manufacturers or businesses that use motors in their ongoing daily operations, such
as Hero MotoCorp Ltd. and Napino Auto and Electronics Limited.
The
Company has no current patents or other intellectual protection on its products or designs.
Competition
The
global automotive dyno market reached a value of US$ 857 Million in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ 988 Million by 2027, exhibiting
at a CAGR of 2.2% during 2022-2027 according to IMARC. We compete with not only those in the automotive and transportation industries,
but with manufacturers and suppliers of dynamometers used in all markets.
Manufacturing
The
Company manufactures its products in Netanya, Israel. The Company purchases the different parts and hardware used for the dynamometers
from suppliers around the world and assembles them in their shop. In addition, the Company’s proprietary software is installed
in the dynamometer and is used to manage the operation of the dynamometers and as an interface for the operator who can use it for different
test cycles, configuration and test output.
Our
headquarters and principal executive office are located at 353 W. 48th Street, New York, New York, under an online virtual
office agreement on a month-to-month basis. This is provided to us at no cost by one of the directors of the Company.
Since
July 3, 2013, MEA has occupied a two-floor facility located at 4c Hagavish St., P.O.B. 8745, Poleg Industrial Zone, Netanya 4250704,
Israel, consisting of approximately 642.65 square meters (including 162.74 square meters of warehouse space and 479.91 square meters
of office space), under a lease with the Israel Land Development Co. Ltd. at a current monthly rent of approximately $5,918.37 at present
conversion rates. MEA’s lease was renewed as of April 1, 2023, and it will expire as of August 31, 2028, and includes an option
to extend for an additional 60 months terminating as of August 31, 2033 for a 5% rental increase plus CPI adjustments and Israel value
added tax. In the recent renewal MEA leased an additional office space of 45 square meters. In the first two years there will be no charge
for that additional office space, following which such space will be charged at the same rate per square meter as the original leased
space. We are currently considering expanding our production capacity, including establishing a subsidiary in India and outsourcing some
of our production activity to third parties.
We
neither own any real property, nor own or have any mortgages on these or any other facilities. We believe that the above properties are
sufficient for our current business.
Sales
and Distribution
The
Company sells its products in two main ways:
| 1. | Direct
sales to customers occur in Israel, parts of the US, and all countries in Europe, Asia and
the Far East. In these countries, the Company interacts directly with prospects clients and
sells them its products. |
| | |
| 2. | Distributors
and agents – in India, China, Turkey, parts of the US, South Korea, Italy, Vietnam,
Czech Republic and Brazil, the Company has appointed distributors who represent it in the
local market. Those distributors solicit and locate prospective clients and then Company
personnel assist with providing details specification of the solutions sought. The Company
approves all price quotes offered to those customers. The distributors are compensated through
monthly retainers and/or commission on the sales generated in their respective territory. |
Employees
MEA
currently engages 14 employees, of which 4 are part-time. Of these employees, 10 are engaged in product research and development and
in product designing, configuration and assembly and the remainder in various fields of administrative, management and marketing.
Legal
Proceedings
We
are not presently a party to any legal proceedings. We may from time to time be involved in various claims and legal proceedings of a
nature we believe are normal and incidental to an industrial business. These matters may include product liability, intellectual property,
employment and other general claims. We accrue for contingent liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and
the amount can be reasonably estimated. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because defense and settlement
costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Government
Regulations
The
Company is not subject to any specific government regulations.

but are not limited to, the risks discussed in prior filings, in press releases and in other communications to shareholders issued by
us from time to time which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors which may affect our business. We undertake
no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.
GAAP”).
Financial
statements in U.S. dollars
The
functional currency of the company is the NIS (Israeli Shekel). Translation adjustments resulting from remeasuring the foreign currency
denominated financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in the Company’s statements of comprehensive Income.
Use
of estimates
The
Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair
value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the
case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework
for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical
level.
The
following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:
|
-
Level 1: |
Quoted
prices in active markets for identical instruments; |
|
|
|
|
-
Level 2: |
Other
significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments); |
|
|
|
|
- Level
3: |
Significant
unobservable inputs (including assumptions in determining the fair value of certain investments). |
The
carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and
deferred revenue approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.
Cash
and cash equivalents
Cash
and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments, including deposits in banks with original maturities of three months
or less.
Property
and equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets at the following annual rates:
| |
% |
Office furniture and equipment | |
7 - 15 |
Computers
and peripheral equipment | |
33 |
Leasehold improvements | |
Over the term of the lease or the life of
the asset, whichever is shorter |
Long-lived
assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360, “Property,
Plant and Equipment”, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future discounted
cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured
by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the year 2021 and 2022, no impairment
losses were recorded.
Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 prescribes
the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between
the financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be
in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred
tax assets to their estimated realizable value, and if it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized.
Revenue
recognition
Significant
management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the recognition of revenue in any accounting period. Material
differences in the amount of revenue in any given period may result if these judgments or estimates prove to be incorrect or if management’s
estimates change on the basis of development of business or market conditions.
We
have decided to follow the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (“ASC 606”). The guidance provides a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized.
Revenues
are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
We
determine revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identification of the contract with a customer; (2) identification of
the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the
performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
Key
Financial Terms and Metrics
The
following discussion summarizes the key factors our management believes are necessary for an understanding of our consolidated financial
statements.
Research
and Development Expenses
The
process of researching and developing our product candidates is lengthy, unpredictable, and subject to many risks. We expect to continue
incurring substantial expenses for the next several years as we continue to develop our product candidates. We are unable, with any certainty,
to estimate either the costs or the timelines in which those expenses will be incurred. The design and development of our devices will
consume a large proportion of our current, as well as projected, resources.
Our
research and development costs include costs are comprised of internal recurring costs, such as personnel-related costs (salaries, employee
benefits, equity compensation and other costs), materials and supplies, facilities and maintenance costs attributable to research and
development functions.
Marketing
Marketing
expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee benefits, equity compensation, and other personnel-related costs associated with executive
and other support staff. Other significant marketing expenses include the costs associated with professional fees to develop our marketing
strategy and fees associated with exhibitions and shops, marketing promotions and digital marketing.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee benefits, equity compensation, and other personnel-related costs
associated with executive, administrative and other support staff. Other significant general and administrative expenses include the
costs associated with professional fees for accounting, auditing, insurance costs, consulting and legal services, along with facility
and maintenance costs attributable to general and administrative functions.
Financial
Expenses
Financial
expenses consist primarily impact of exchange rate derived from re-measurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar
currencies. Other financial expenses include bank’s fees and interest on long term loans.

Revenues.
Income from sales decreased from $201,341 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $41,198 for the three months ended March 31,
2023, a decrease of approximately 89%. This decrease was due primarily to a lack of systems deliveries to clients and seasonality of
client orders.
Research
and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased from $75,828 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $71,071
for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a nominal insignificant decrease.
General
and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased $30,681 from $102,447 for the three months ended March
31, 2022 to $71,766 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in legal and other fees
relating to the change of control that occurred in the end of 2022, beginning of 2023.
Gross
Profit. As a result of the above factors, gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $10,299 as compared to $11,049
for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Revenues.
Income from sales increased from $930,849 for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $989,879 for the year ended December 31, 2022.
This 6.3% increase was a combination of our enhanced marketing and sales activities as well as a growth in the market subsequent to COVID19
lockdowns.
Research
and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased from $267,439 to $376,525 during the years ended December 31,
2021 and 2022, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily related to compensation paid to our employees.
General and Administrative
Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased from $147,750 to $440,214 during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022,
respectively. The 298% increase was primarily due to the merger with MEA and our marketing expenses.
Gross
Profit. As a result of the above factors, gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $348,640 as compared to $326,120
for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
From
inception and through the date of the acquisition, we have funded our operations from funds raised from our shareholders. In addition,
given unexpected growth in our sales, we have received several loans from shareholders, banks and investors.
As of December 31, 2022, we
had a total of $334,759 in cash and approximately $2,354,447 of liabilities, consisting of $1,020,981 of current liabilities from operations
and $1,333,466 of loans from related parties and shareholders. The balance of the liabilities were comprised of suppliers and service
providers ($79,035) and payable and credit balances of $941,946.
The Company has experienced operating losses since its inception and
had a total accumulated deficit of $11,909,462 as of December 31, 2022. The company expects to incur additional costs and require additional
capital. We have incurred losses in nearly every year since inception and in the year ended December 31, 2022. These losses have resulted
in significant cash used in operations. We do not have sufficient funds for the next twelve months.
Our
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the
date of these consolidated financial statements. However, the Company has incurred substantial losses. Our current liabilities exceed
our current assets and available cash is not sufficient to fund the expected future operations. The Company is raising additional capital
through debt and equity securities in order to continue the funding of its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company
can raise enough funds or generate sufficient revenues to pay its obligations as they become due, which raises substantial doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern. To reduce the risk of not being able to continue as a going concern, management has implemented
its business plan to generate revenues from sales and has engaged an investment banker to raise additional capital. Although, uncertainty
exists as to whether the Company will be able generate enough cash from operations to fund the Company’s working capital needs
or raise sufficient capital to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, no adjustments have been made to the carrying
value of assets or liabilities as a result of this uncertainty.
We
cannot be sure that future funding will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Due to often volatile nature of the financial
markets, equity and debt financing may be difficult to obtain.
We
will seek to raise any necessary additional capital through a combination of private or public equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations,
strategic alliances, licensing arrangements and other marketing and distribution arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional
capital through marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third
parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights, future revenue streams, or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that
may not be favorable to us. If we raise additional capital through private or public equity offerings, the ownership interest of our
existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely
affect our stockholders’ rights. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants limiting
or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.
Our
cash is maintained in money market accounts and, to a lesser extent, in CDs at major financial institutions. Due to the current low interest
rates available for these instruments, we are earning limited interest income. Our investment portfolio has not been adversely impacted
by the problems in the credit markets that have existed over the last several years, but there can be no assurance.
Going
Concern
Our
financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments
relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable
to continue in operation. Our report from our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022
includes an explanatory paragraph stating the Company has recurring losses and limited operations which raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, the Company may be required to reduce
the scope, delay, or eliminate some or all of its planned operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Code of Ethics
We do not have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees, and directors.
Role in Risk Oversight
Our board is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The board receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our company’s assessment of risks. The board focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.
Each executive officer serves at the pleasure of the Board.
Family relationships
There are no family relationships among any of our officers or directors.
Director Independence
We do not currently have any independent directors.

NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Unless determined otherwise by the Compensation Committee or the Board in the absence of such a committee, unless a participant has received a benefit of ownership such as dividend or voting rights with respect to the incentive award, the following transactions will restore, on a one-for-one basis, the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan:
|
1. |
A payout of a SAR or a tandem SAR in cash; |
|
|
|
|
2. |
A cancellation, termination, expiration, forfeiture or lapse for any reason (with the exception of the termination of a tandem SAR upon exercise of the related options, or the termination of a related option upon exercise of the corresponding tandem SAR) of any award payable in shares; |
|
|
|
|
3. |
Shares tendered in payment of the exercise price of an option; |
|
|
|
|
4. |
Shares withheld for payment of federal, state or local taxes; |
|
|
|
|
5. |
Shares repurchased by us with proceeds collected in connection with the exercise of outstanding options; and |
|
|
|
|
6. |
The net shares issued in connection with the exercise of SARs (as opposed to the full number of shares underlying the exercised portion of the SAR). |
In addition, the number of shares of common stock subject to the Plan, any number of shares subject to any numerical limit in the Plan, and the number of shares and terms of any incentive award are expected to be adjusted in the event of any change in the outstanding shares of common stock by reason of any stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, liquidation, business combination or exchange of shares or similar transaction.
Grants
The Plan authorizes the grant of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted RSUs, performance units and performance shares (which may be designed to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (as amended, the “Code”)) and SARs, as described below:
Options granted entitle the grantee, upon exercise, to purchase a specified number of shares at a specified exercise price per share. The exercise price for shares of our common stock covered by an option cannot be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. In addition, in the case of an incentive stock option granted to an employee who, at the time the incentive stock option is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary, the per share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Options expire at such time as the Compensation Committee or the Board in the absence of such a committee, shall determine provided that no option shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of the date of its grant and provided further that no incentive stock option shall be exercisable later than the fifth anniversary following the date of its grant to a grantee, who at the time of such grant owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company.
Restricted stock awards and RSUs may be awarded on terms established by the Compensation Committee, or the Board in the absence of such a committee, which may include time-based and performance-based conditions for restricted stock awards and the lapse of restrictions on the achievement of one or more performance goals for restricted stock units.
A performance share award and/or a performance unit award may be granted to participants. Each performance unit will have an initial value that is established by the Compensation Committee, or the Board in the absence of such a committee, at the time of grant. Each performance share will have an initial value equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of grant. Such awards may be earned based upon satisfaction of certain specified performance criteria, subject to such other terms as the compensation committee, or the Board in the absence of such a committee, deems appropriate.
SARs entitle the participant to receive a distribution in an amount not to exceed the number of shares of our common stock subject to the portion of the SAR exercised multiplied by the difference between the market price of a share of our common stock on the date of exercise of the SAR and the market price of a share of our common stock on the date of grant of the SAR. An option and a SAR may be granted “in tandem” with each other. An option and a SAR are considered to be in tandem with each other because the exercise of the option aspect of the tandem unit automatically cancels the right to exercise the SAR aspect of the tandem unit, and vice versa. The option may be an incentive stock option or a nonqualified stock option.
Change in Control
Generally, upon the occurrence of a change in control, as such term is defined in the Plan:
|
1. |
all options and SARs granted shall become fully vested and immediately exercisable; |
|
2. |
any restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock or RSUs which are not intended to qualify for the means the performance-based exception from the tax deductibility limitations of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) shall lapse; and |
|
3. |
any award intended to qualify for the performance-based exception from the tax deductibility limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code shall be earned in accordance with the applicable award agreement. |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any incentive award subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, a “change in control” of the Company is defined in a manner to ensure compliance with Section 409A.
Duration, Amendment, and Termination
The Board upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee has the power to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan without shareholder approval or ratification at any time or from time to time. No change may be made that increases the total number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to incentive awards, materially increase the benefits accruing to participants or materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, unless such change is authorized by shareholders. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan will terminate ten years after it is adopted.

On June 19, 2023, the Company, together with its Israeli subsidiary, M.E.A. Testing Systems Ltd., (“MEA”) entered into a convertible loan agreement with four of its shareholders, Hold Me Ltd., MLB, Amir Adibi, and Menachem Marchov. Pursuant to the convertible loan agreement, three of the Company’s shareholders agreed to lend to MEA NIS 80,000 each (NIS 240,000 in the aggregate) and one of the Company’s shareholders agreed to lend $5,000, for aggregate loan proceeds to MEA of approximately $71,461.19 according to the exchange rates in effect as of the date of this prospectus. The loan will bear interest at a rate of 1% per annum until it is repaid, in addition to which the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding share capital to each of the four shareholders each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. In the event that the Company’s common stock is uplisted to the NASDAQ Capital Market within one year and one day after origination of the loan, the shareholders have the right to convert the outstanding loan, together with accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations. If the Company fails to achieve an uplisting of its common stock within the initial repayment period, the interest rate on the loan will increase to 2% per annum and must be repaid on or before one year and one day following the expiration of the initial repayment period.
On July 3, 2023, each of Amir Adibi and Menachem Shalom, officers and directors of the Company, lend the Company $32,500. The Company received an aggregate of $48,750 as a result of the 25% original discount on the loans. The loans bear interest at a rate of 1% per month. In addition, the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding share capital to each of Messrs. Adibi and Shalom for each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. If the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market before July 4, 2024, the lenders have the right to convert the outstanding loan and accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations, provided, however that the Company’s effective value to each lender shall not exceed $60,000,000. If the Company is not listed on Nasdaq by such date, the interest rate on the loan increases to 2% per annum and the loan is due on July 4, 2025.
Since the Company’s directors (Menachem Shalom, Amir Adibi and Doron Yom Tov) were required to sign an unlimited personal guarantee to secure the loan from Bank Hapoalim and to secure all other, existing and future, loans and credit provided to the Company and/or to MEA, the Company agreed to issue to each director or his designee, per month, the number of shares equal to approximately 0.05% of the outstanding shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis, per each NIS100,000 of debt secured by that director.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Our shares of common stock subject to the Direct Offering will be sold through our management, who may be considered an underwriter as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Our management will not receive any commission in connection with the sale of shares, although we may reimburse them for direct expenses incurred by them in connection with the offer and sale of the shares. We estimate our total offering registration costs, including our legal, accounting, miscellaneous and related fees will be a total expense to the Company of $70,000 relating to the registration. There is no minimum number of shares that must be sold by us for the Direct Offering to proceed. We will retain any proceeds from the Direct Offering.
Our management will be relying on, and complying with, Rule 3a4-1(a)(4)(ii) of the Exchange Act as a “safe harbor” from registration as a broker-dealer in connection with the offer and sale of the shares. In order to rely on such “safe harbor” provisions provided by Rule 3a4-1(a) (4) (ii), each must be in compliance with all of the following:
|
● |
an individual must not be subject to a statutory disqualification; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an individual must not be compensated in connection with such selling participation by payment of commissions or other payments based either directly or indirectly on such transactions; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an individual must not be an associated person of a broker-dealer; |
|
|
|
|
● |
An individual must primarily perform, or is intended primarily to perform at the end of the Direct Offering, substantial duties for or on behalf of the Company otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
an individual must perform substantial duties for the Company after the close of the Direct Offering not connected with transactions in securities, and not have been an associated person of a broker or dealer for the preceding 12 months, and not participate in selling an offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months. |
Each member of our management will comply with the guidelines enumerated in Rule 3a4-1(a) (4) (ii). Neither our management nor any of their affiliates will be purchasing shares in the Direct Offering.
You may purchase shares by completing and manually executing a subscription agreement and delivering it with your payment in full for all shares you wish to purchase to our offices. A copy of the form of that subscription agreement is attached as an exhibit to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Your subscription will not become effective until accepted by us and approved by our counsel. Our subscription process is as follows:
|
● |
this prospectus, with subscription agreement, is delivered by the Company to each offeree; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the subscription is completed by the offeree, and submitted with check back to the Company where the subscription and a copy of the check is emailed to counsel for review; |
|
|
|
|
● |
each subscription is reviewed by counsel for the Company to confirm the subscribing party completed the form, and to confirm the state of acceptance; |
|
|
|
|
● |
once approved by counsel, the subscription is accepted by management and the funds will be deposited within four days of acceptance; |
|
|
|
|
● |
subscriptions not accepted are returned with all funds sent with the subscription within three business days of the Company’s receipt of the subscription, without interest or deduction of any kind. |
We will pay all of the expenses incident to the registration, offering, and sale of the shares to the public other than commissions or discounts of underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents.
We will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under it, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5.
The Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as permitted by that rule, or Section 4(a)(1) under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of those provisions, including the requirements of Rule 144(i) applicable to former “shell companies.”
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock 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 stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will be in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110.
In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and if such short sale shall take place after the date that this registration statement is declared effective by the SEC, the Selling Stockholders may deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Selling Stockholders have been advised that they may not use shares registered pursuant to this registration statement to cover short sales of our common stock made prior to the date the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is declared effective by the SEC.
The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock 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 Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock 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 Stockholders and any broker-dealer or agents participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock offered hereby may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer or agent and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Selling Stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities of, including but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act.
Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it is not a registered broker-dealer and does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the common stock. Upon us being notified in writing by a selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker-dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups, which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock 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 in all respects.
Any Selling Stockholder may sell some, all or none of the shares of common stock to be registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
Each Selling Stockholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act 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 shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholder and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock, including, without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that each Selling Stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any, and any legal expenses incurred by it.
Penny Stock Rules
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “institutional accredited investors.” The term “institutional accredited investor” refers generally to those accredited investors who are not natural persons and fall into one of the categories of accredited investor specified in subparagraphs (1), (2), (3), (7) or (8) of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, including institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000.
The
penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document in a form required by the SEC, and impose a waiting period of two business days before effecting
the transaction. The risk disclosure document provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny
stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation
of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock
held in the customer’s account.
The
bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in
writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer
must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s
written agreement to the transaction.
These
disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject
to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We
believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
The
Selling Stockholders will offer their respective shares at a fixed price of $___ per share until our shares of common stock are quoted
on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets Group, Inc. or listed on an exchange, and thereafter the Selling Stockholders will determine at
what price they may sell the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, and such sales may be made 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.
DESCRIPTION
OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
The
following description of our capital stock is intended as a summary only. We refer you to our articles of incorporation and bylaws which
have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and to the applicable provisions of the
Delaware corporation law.
Our
authorized capital stock consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock par value $0.0001 per share and 1,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”). As of July 13, 2023, there were 76,347,992 shares of our
common stock and 610,061 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Common
Stock
Each
holder of shares of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to the vote of stockholders,
including the election of directors. The holders of shares of common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or cumulative
voting rights. There is no provision in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control
of our company.
Preferred Stock
On
September 28, 2022, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, authorizing 1,000,000 shares of ‘blank check’ preferred stock and other corporate changes. The amended and restated
certificate also authorized the creation of 800,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is authorized to
vote with the Common Stock in all stockholder meetings that the Common Stock may vote and each share has voting power equal to 174.61
votes per share. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at a rate of 174.61 shares of common stock to each share of Series
A Preferred Stock. There is a 6% annual dividend payable on the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. In addition to our Series A Preferred
Stock, 200,000 shares of ‘blank check’ preferred stock remain authorized and unissued.
On
October 6, 2022, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement dated July 26, 2022, with M.E.A.
Testing Systems Ltd., a company formed under the laws of the State of Israel (“MEA”), and shareholders representing 89% of
the issued and outstanding shares of MEA (the “MEA Shareholders”), pursuant to which the MEA Shareholders agreed to exchange
all of their shares in MEA for newly issued shares of the Company. In accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement, each outstanding
ordinary share of MEA was exchanged for 34.92 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company, and every 5 outstanding
preferred shares of MEA was exchanged for 1 newly issued share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company. Each preferred share of MEA
is convertible to 174.61 shares of common stock of MEA and has the other rights and designations identical to those held by the preferred
shareholders of MEA immediately prior to the Closing. At the closing, all the outstanding warrants issued by MEA exercisable for an aggregate
of 305,848 were exchanged for an identical number of warrants exercisable for the identical number of preferred shares of Motomova, all
of which warrants have since been exercised. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, MEA became
a subsidiary of the Company.
On
November 7, 2022, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, changing the voting and conversion rates of the 6% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”)
to be in accordance with the voting and conversion rates of the preferred shares of MEA which were exchanged for preferred shares of
the Company. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock votes 174.61 shares of common stock and is convertible to 174.61 shares of common
stock of the Company.
On
December 23, 2022, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, changing
the total number of its authorized capital stock to 501,000,000, which includes 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001
par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
A
warrant to purchase an aggregate of 304,878 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an exercise price of $1,000,000 was issued to Full
Finance and Star. The warrant was exercised in full during the last quarter of 2022 and the balance during January 2023. The Company
received $180,000 on November 14, 2022, $50,000 on December 5, 2022, $75,000 on December 12, 2022 and $695,000 on January 25, 2023.
There
are currently 610,061 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Transfer
Agent
The
transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, with an address of 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York
11598, and its telephone number is (212) 828-8436.
Delaware
Anti-Takeover Statute
We
are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a person deemed an “interested stockholder”
from engaging in a “business combination” with a publicly held Delaware corporation for three years following the date such
person becomes an interested stockholder unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested
stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an “interested stockholder”
is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder
status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger,
asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision
may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors, such as discouraging
takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the price of our common stock.
Undesignated
Preferred Stock
The
ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or
other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the company. These and other provisions
may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the company.
Special
Stockholder Meetings
Our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by a majority of our board
of directors.
Requirements
for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals
Our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination
of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee
of the board of directors.
The
provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging
others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the price of our common
stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes
in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may
otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
MATERIAL
U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO
NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
The
following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) of the ownership and
disposition of our common stock but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating thereto.
This summary is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings
and judicial decisions, all as of the date hereof. These authorities may be changed, possibly retroactively, so as to result in U.S.
federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below. No ruling on the U.S. federal, state, or local tax considerations
relevant to our operations or to the purchase, ownership or disposition of our common stock, has been requested from the Internal Revenue
Service (“IRS”) or other tax authority. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not
sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences described below.
This
summary also does not address the tax considerations arising under the laws of any non-U.S., state or local jurisdiction, or under U.S.
federal gift and estate tax laws. In addition, this discussion does not address tax considerations applicable to an investor’s
particular circumstances or to investors that may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation:
|
● |
banks,
insurance companies or other financial institutions, regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts; |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
subject to the alternative minimum tax or Medicare contribution tax on net investment income; |
|
|
|
|
● |
tax-exempt
organizations or governmental organizations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
controlled
foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income
tax; |
|
|
|
|
● |
brokers
or dealers in securities or currencies; |
|
|
|
|
● |
traders
in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings; |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
that own, or are deemed to own, more than five percent of our capital stock (except to the extent specifically set forth below) |
|
|
|
|
● |
U.S.
expatriates and certain former citizens or long-term residents of the U.S.; |
|
|
|
|
● |
partnerships
or entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or other pass-through entities (and investors therein); |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
who hold our common stock as a position in a hedging transaction, “straddle,” “conversion transaction” or
other risk reduction transaction or integrated investment; |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
who hold or receive our common stock pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation; |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
who do not hold our common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
persons
deemed to sell our common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. |
Non-U.S.
Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular
situation, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock arising under the U.S. federal
estate or gift tax rules or under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S., or other taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.
Non-U.S.
Holder Defined
For
purposes of this discussion, a non-U.S. holder (other than a partnership) is any holder of our common stock other than:
|
● |
an
individual citizen or resident of the U.S. (for U.S. federal income tax purposes); |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in the U.S. or under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof,
or the District of Columbia, or other entity treated as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an
estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
trust (x) whose administration is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more “U.S. persons”
(within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) who have the authority to control all substantial decisions
of the trust or (y) which has made a valid election to be treated as a U.S. person. |
In
addition, if a partnership or entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common stock, the tax
treatment of a partner generally will depend on the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Accordingly, partnerships
that hold our common stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their tax advisors.
Distributions
As
described in “Dividend Policy,” we have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying
any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions on our common stock, those payments
will constitute dividends for U.S. tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined
under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed both our current and our accumulated earnings and
profits, they will constitute a non-taxable return of capital and will first reduce a non-U.S. holder’s basis in our common stock,
but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain from the sale of stock as described below under “Gain on Disposition of Common
Stock.”
Subject
to the discussion below on effectively connected income, backup withholding and foreign accounts, any dividend paid to a non-U.S. holder
generally will be subject to U.S. withholding tax either at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividend or at such lower rate as
may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. In order to receive a reduced treaty rate, a non-U.S. holder must provide us (or
the applicable withholding agent) with an IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or other appropriate version of IRS Form W-8 certifying
qualification for the reduced rate. A non-U.S. holder of shares of our common stock eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax
pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund
with the IRS. If the non-U.S. holder holds the stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the non-U.S. holder’s
behalf, the non-U.S. holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent, which then will be required to provide
certification to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries.
Dividends
received by a non-U.S. holder that are effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and,
if required by an applicable income tax treaty, attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the U.S.)
are generally exempt from such withholding tax. In order to obtain this exemption, the non-U.S. holder must provide us with an IRS Form
W-8ECI or other applicable IRS Form W-8 properly certifying such exemption. Such effectively connected dividends, although not subject
to withholding tax, are taxed at the same graduated rates applicable to U.S. persons, net of certain deductions and credits. In addition,
dividends received by a non-U.S. holder that is a corporation that are effectively connected with such non-U.S. holder’s conduct
of a U.S. trade or business may also be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% or at such lower rate as may be specified by
an applicable income tax treaty. Non-U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may
provide for different rules.
Gain
on Disposition of Common Stock
Subject
to the discussion below regarding backup withholding and foreign accounts, a non-U.S. holder generally will not be required to pay U.S.
federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock unless:
|
● |
the
gain is effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if required by an applicable
income tax treaty, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the U.S.); |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
non-U.S. holder is a non-resident alien individual who is present in the U.S. for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more
during the taxable year in which the sale or disposition occurs and certain other conditions are met; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
our
common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest by reason of our status as a “U.S. real property holding corporation,”
(“USRPHC”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time within the shorter of (i) the five-year period preceding
the non-U.S. holder’s disposition of our common stock, or (ii) the non-U.S. holder’s holding period for our common stock. |
Generally,
a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market
value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. We believe that we are
not currently and will not become a USRPHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the remainder of this discussion so assumes. However,
because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our U.S. real property relative to the fair
market value of our other business assets, there can be no assurance that we will not become a USRPHC in the future. Even if we become
a USRPHC, however, a non-U.S. holder would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a sale, exchange or other taxable disposition
of shares of our common stock by reason of our status as a USRPHC so long as (i) our common stock is regularly traded on an established
securities market during the calendar year in which such sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of shares of our common stock occurs
and (ii) such non-U.S. holder does not own and is not deemed to own (directly, indirectly or constructively) more than 5% of our common
stock at any time during the relevant period.
Non-U.S.
holders described in the first bullet above will be required to pay tax on the net gain derived from the sale under regular graduated
U.S. federal income tax rates, and a corporate non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet above also may be subject to the branch
profits tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. Non-U.S. holders described in the
second bullet above, will be required to pay a flat 30% tax (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on the
gain derived from the sale, which gain may generally be offset by U.S. source capital losses for the year (provided such non-U.S. holders
have timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses). Non-U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors
with respect to the application of the foregoing rules to their ownership and disposition of our common stock.
Backup
Withholding and Information Reporting
Generally,
we must report annually to the IRS the amount of dividends paid to non-U.S. holders, their names and addresses and the amount of tax
withheld, if any. A similar report will be sent to non-U.S. holders. Pursuant to applicable income tax treaties or other agreements,
the IRS may make these reports available to tax authorities in a non-U.S. holder’s country of residence.
Payments
of dividends or of proceeds on the disposition of stock made to non-U.S. holders may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding
at a current rate of 28% unless such non-U.S. holders establish an exemption, for example, by properly certifying their non-U.S. status
on an IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or another appropriate version of IRS Form W-8.
Backup
withholding is not an additional tax; rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be
reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may generally be obtained
from the IRS, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.
Foreign
Account Tax Compliance
The
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) imposes withholding tax at a rate of 30% on dividends on and gross proceeds
from the sale or other disposition of our common stock paid to “foreign financial institutions” (as specially defined under
these rules), unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and to collect
and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding the U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes
certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners) or
otherwise establishes an exemption. FATCA also generally imposes a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on dividends on and gross proceeds
from the sale or other disposition of our common stock paid to a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specially defined for
purposes of these rules) unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying certain substantial direct
and indirect U.S. owners of the entity, certifies that there are none or otherwise establishes an exemption. An intergovernmental agreement
between the U.S. and an applicable foreign country may modify the requirements described in this paragraph. Non-U.S. holders should consult
their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in our common stock.
Each
prospective investor should consult its tax advisor regarding the particular U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax consequences
of purchasing, holding and disposing of our common stock, including the consequences of any proposed change in applicable laws.
DISCLOSURE
OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR
SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
In
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
the registrant has been informed 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.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022
U.S. DOLLARS
INDEX
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Motomova Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying the balance sheets of Motomova Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows, for the year then ended, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Going Concern
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Going concern- refer to note 1 of the financial statements
Critical audit matter description
The Company raised substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial statements for the years under audit have been prepared to assume that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. See the explanatory paragraph of the opinion paragraph.
We identified the going concern as a critical audit matter, as (i) the assumptions utilized in the model to asses going concern situation required judgment, and the model is inherently complex. (ii) the magnitude of the liabilities and losses that will impact due to the estimation process.
How the Critical Audit Matter was addressed in our Audit
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following: (i) We evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. (ii) We obtained information about management’s plans that are intended to mitigate the effect of such conditions or events and assess the likelihood that such plans can be effectively implemented. (iii) We added an explanatory paragraph to the audit report.
/s/ Elkana Amitai CPA
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.

NOTE 2:- |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
|
a. |
Financial statements in U.S. dollars: |
The functional currency of the Company is the USD.The functional currency of MEA is the NIS (Israeli Shekel). Translation adjustments resulting from remeasuring the foreign currency denominated financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in the Company’s statements of comprehensive Income.
The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.
The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:
|
- Level 1: |
Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments; |
|
|
|
|
- Level 2: |
Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments); |
|
|
|
|
- Level 3: |
Significant unobservable inputs (including assumptions in determining the fair value of certain investments). |
The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and deferred revenue approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.
|
c. |
Principle of Consolidation: |
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
|
d. |
Cash and cash equivalents: |
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments, including deposits in banks with original maturities of three months or less.

Property and equipment: |
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets at the following annual rates:

Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the year 2021 and 2022 no impairment losses were recorded.
The Company is required to account for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740) by recognizing the amount of tax payable for the current year and recognizing the amount of deferred tax asset or liability for the future consequence of events that have been reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns.
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are based on temporary differences between the basis of financial reporting amounts and the basis of income tax reporting amounts. These deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such amounts are expected to reverse or be utilized. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be ultimately realized. In determining the recognition of uncertain tax positions, the Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and determines the measurement of uncertain tax positions by considering the amounts and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities.
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities were recorded.
Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the recognition of revenue in any accounting period. Material differences in the amount of revenue in any given period may result if these judgments or estimates prove to be incorrect or if management’s estimates change on the basis of development of business or market conditions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars
We have decided to follow the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The guidance provides a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identification of the contract with a customer; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern.
The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Pro forma presentation |
The pro forma financial statements of the Company are based on the historical financial statements of the Company and M.E.A. Testing Systems Ltd.
The pro forma presentation is due to the acquision of M.E.A. Testing Systems Ltd as disrobed in note 1.
In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02. The guidance establishes a right-of-use model (“ROU”) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. The Group determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception.
The Group is a lessee in an operating lease for a research facility. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.
MOTOMOVA INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
U.S. dollars
ROU assets represent Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent Group’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As our lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company generally uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Group monitors for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of one of its leases. When a reassessment results in the remeasurement of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding ROU asset unless doing so would reduce the carrying amount of the ROU asset to an amount less than zero. In that case, the amount of the adjustment that would result in a negative ROU asset balance is recorded in statement of comprehensive loss.
|
k. |
Liability for employee rights upon retirement |
MEA testing systems’s liability for severance pay is pursuant to Section 14 of the Severance Compensation Act, 1963 (“Section 14”), pursuant to which all the Company’s employees are included under Section 14, and are entitled only to monthly deposits. Under Israeli employment law, payments in accordance with Section 14 release the Company from any future severance payments in respect of those employees. The fund is made available to the employee at the time the employer-employee relationship is terminated, regardless of cause of termination. The severance pay liabilities and deposits under Section 14 are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as the severance pay risks have been irrevocably transferred to the severance funds.
|
l. |
Research and development expenses |
Research and development costs are charged to the consolidated statement of operations as incurred.
|
m. |
Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company records accruals for loss contingencies arising from claims, litigation and other sources when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessments change or additional information becomes available. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
|
n. |
Basic and diluted net loss per share |
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of Ordinary shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of Ordinary shares, to the extent dilutive, all in accordance with ASC No. 260, “Earning Per Share”.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Business Combination
On October 28, 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, which amends ASC 805 to “require acquiring entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination.” Under current GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes such items at fair value on the acquisition date. According to the FASB, this Update is intended “to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to the following:
|
● |
Recognition of an acquired contract liability |
|
● |
Payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. |
ASU 2021-08 06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Income taxes
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies certain aspects of the current guidance to improve consistent application among reporting entities. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, though early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of ASU 2019-12 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

● |
On January 1, 2023 the Company adopted the 2022 Petrocorp Inc.

According to the Plan the Company has reserved 15,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance to employees, officers, consultants and agents of the Company. |
|
● |
On February 2023, the Company has signed a Revolving Credit Line Agreement with MEA and a Revolving Credit Line Agreement with Petrocorp Israel Ltd – a wholly owned Israeli subsidiary of the Company. Those agreements enable the company to fund the operations of those two companies. |
|
● |
On March 2023 an amount of 304,878 warrants that were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022 were exercise for a nuumber of 304,878 preferred shares of the company. Accordingly, the company has an aggregate of 610,061 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding which are convertible to an aggregate of 106,522,751 shares of common stock of the Company. |
|
● |
On May 2023, Gad Zohar and Menachem Cohen, left the board of directors of MEA. Hanan Malka was appointed as a new board member of MEA. |
|
● |
On May 16, 2023 the Company issued and amount of 6,170,286 shares of Common Stock, for their par value, and that upon such issuance, such shares shall be deemed to be duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable. |
|
● |
On June 12th, 2023 the Company has changed its name from PETROCORP Inc to MOTOMOVA Inc. |
|
● |
On June 15, 2023, MEA entered into a credit agreement with Bank Hapoalim, an Israeli bank, pursuant to which MEA received a 6-month loan of NIS 500,000. Interest on the line of credit accrued at the Israel Bank’s Prime Rate (currently 6.25%) plus 2.25% per annum. The credit agreement is secured by a lien on all of MEA’s assets and by unlimited personal guarantees of each of the Company’s directors. |
|
● |
On June 19, 2023, the Company and MEA entered into a convertible loan agreement with five shareholders and/or affiliates. Pursuant to the convertible loan agreement, the shareholders lend an aggregate of approximately $93,889. The loans bear interest at a rate of 1% per month. In addition, the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding share capital to each of the lending shareholder for each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. If the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market before June 20, 2024, the shareholders have the right to convert the outstanding loan and accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations. If the Company is not listed on Nasdaq by such date, the interest rate on the loan increases to 2% per annum and the loan is due on June 20, 2025. |
|
● |
On June 20, 2023, The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority notified the Company that the name change of the Company took effect on the over-the-counter market as of June 21, 2023, at which time, the ticker symbol for the Company’s common stock officially changed to “MTMV”. |

|
● |
On July 3, 2023, the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with Graziani Industries 1992 Ltd. (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender agreed to lend $200,000 to the Company with interest at the rate of 8% a year. In the event of an uplist of the Company’s common stock to NASDAQ Capital Market prior to July 4, 2024, Lender has the right to convert the outstanding loan balance into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations. If the Company fails to achieve an uplisting of its common stock before such date, the loan will bear interest at 8% per annum and must be repaid on or before July 4, 2025. If the loan is not converted to shares, the debt of the Company to Lender is then personally guaranteed by Messrs. Shalom and Adibi, two directors of the Company. |
|
● |
On July 3, 2023, each of Amir Adibi and Menachem Shalom, officers and directors of the Company, lend the Company $32,500. The Company received an aggregate of $48,750 as a result of the 25% original discount on the loans. The loans bear interest at a rate of 1% per month. In addition, the Company agreed to issue a number of shares equal to approximately 0.25% of its fully-diluted then-outstanding share capital to each of Messrs. Adibi and Shalom for each calendar month that the loan remains outstanding. If the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market before July 4, 2024, the lenders have the right to convert the outstanding loan and accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 40% discount to the public offering price, subject to certain limitations, provided, however that the Company’s effective value to each lender shall not exceed $60,000,000. If the Company is not listed on Nasdaq by such date, the interest rate on the loan increases to 2% per annum and the loan is due on July 4, 2025. |
|
● |
Since the Company’s directors (Menachem Shalom, Amir Adibi and Doron Yom Tov) were required to sign an unlimited personal guarantee to secure the loan from Bank Hapoalim and to secure all other, existing and future, loans and credit provided to the Company and/or to MEA, the Company agreed to issue to each director or his designee, per month, the number of shares equal to approximately 0.05% of the outstanding shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis, per each NIS100,000 of debt secured by that director. That applies to the debt provided by Grazaini Industries and by Bank Hapoalim as mentioned above. |

14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Our
certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for
any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:
|
● |
any
breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; |
|
|
|
|
● |
any
act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
unlawful
payments of dividends in violation of the Delaware General Corporation Law. |
Our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware law and provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final
disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any director or officer for any liability arising
out of his, her or its actions in that capacity.
We
believe these provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors
and officers.
The
limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from
bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation
against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. A stockholder’s investment
may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification
provisions.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
There
is no pending litigation or proceeding naming any of our directors, officers or employees 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 director, officer or employee.
Item

from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and/or Regulation D or Regulation
S promulgated thereunder. All purchasers of securities in transactions exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation D represented
to us that they were accredited investors and were acquiring the shares for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale
in connection with, any distribution thereof and that they could bear the risks of the investment.

17. Undertakings
The
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 the 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 a 20 percent 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; |
|
(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) |

for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: 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. |
|
|
|
|
(5) |
That,
for the purpose of determining liability 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. |
|
(6) |
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: |
|
(1) |
For
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed
as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant
to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the
time it was declared effective. |
|
|
|
|
(2) |
For
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus 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 fi de offering thereof. |
|
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. |
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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf

Exhibit 4.2
MOTOMOVA INC.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following description
of the capital stock of Motomova Inc. (“our,” “we” or the “Company”) summarizes the material terms
and provisions of the common stock and the preferred stock. For the complete terms of our common stock and preferred stock, please refer
to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, which we refer to as our charter, and our bylaws, that are incorporated
herein by reference. The summary below is qualified in its entirety by reference to our charter and bylaws. The terms of these securities
may also be affected by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
General
Our authorized capital stock
consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock par value $0.0001 per share and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001
per share (“Preferred Stock”) of which 800,000 shares are designated Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred
Stock”). As of July 13, 2023, there were 76,347,992 shares of our common stock and 610,061 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock
issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
Each holder of shares of our
common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to the vote of stockholders, including the
election of directors. The holders of shares of common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or cumulative voting rights.
There is no provision in the charter or bylaws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our company.
Preferred Stock
On September 28, 2022, we filed the amended and
restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, authorizing 1,000,000 shares of ‘blank
check’ preferred stock and other corporate changes. The charter provides that shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time
to time in one or more series. Our board of directors will be able to authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers,
preferences, the relative, participating, optional, or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations, and restrictions thereof,
applicable to the shares of each series. Our board of directors will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with
voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have
anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue Preferred Stock without stockholder approval could have the
effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management.
The charter authorized the creation of 800,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is authorized to vote with the Common Stock in all stockholder meetings
that the Common Stock may vote and each share has voting power equal to 174.61 votes per share. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock
is convertible at a rate of 174.61 shares of common stock to each share of Series A Preferred Stock. There is a 6% annual dividend payable
on the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. In addition to our Series A Preferred Stock, 200,000 shares of ‘blank check’
Preferred Stock remain authorized and unissued.
Delaware Anti-Takeover
Statute
We are subject to Section
203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a person deemed an “interested stockholder” from engaging in
a “business combination” with a publicly held Delaware corporation for three years following the date such person becomes
an interested stockholder unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder
was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a
person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder,
status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger,
asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision
may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors, such as discouraging
takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the price of our common stock.
Undesignated Preferred Stock
The ability to authorize undesignated
preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that
could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring
hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the company.
Special Stockholder Meetings
Our charter and bylaws provide
that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by a majority of our board of directors.
Requirements for Advance Notification of
Stockholder Nominations and Proposals
Our charter and bylaws establish
advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than
nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors.
The provisions of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, our charter, and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and,
as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored
hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these
provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent and registrar
for our common stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, with an address of 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598, and its telephone number
is (212) 828-8436.
Listing
Our shares of Common Stock
are quoted on the OTC Pink tier of the OTC Markets Group Inc. under the symbol “MTMV”.

2 – Form of Election to Purchase hereto of such Warrantholder’s election to exercise the Warrants,; (ii) the Warrant
Certificate or Warrant Certificates, if any, evidencing the Warrants being exercised; and (iii) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

Preferred Stock, issue to the Warrantholder or its designee on exercise of such Warrant, a stock certificate or stock certificates representing

evidenced by any Warrant Certificate are exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock certificates, deliver

Price. |

other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of the Warrants), consolidates with or merges into another entity
or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, then, in each such case, Warrantholder, upon any permitted exercise
of a Warrant (as provided in Section 8), at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance,
shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior
to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such Warrantholder would have been entitled upon the consummation
of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance if such Warrantholder had exercised the Warrant immediately prior thereto,
all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 9. The successor or purchasing entity in any such reorganization,
consolidation, merger or conveyance (if other than the Company) shall duly execute and deliver to Warrantholder a written acknowledgment
of such entity’s obligations under the Warrants and this Agreement.
C.
Notice of Certain Events.
Upon
the occurrence of any event resulting in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares (or other stock or securities or property) receivable
upon the exercise of the Warrants or the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly thereafter (i) compute such adjustment in accordance
with the terms of the Warrants, (ii) prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment is based, and (iii) mail copies of such certificate to Warrantholder.
| Section
10. | Reservation
of Shares. |

Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued
Preferred Stock, or its authorized and issued Preferred Stock held in its treasury, the aggregate number of the Warrant Shares deliverable
upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon
the due and punctual exercise of the Warrants, through 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the Warrant Expiration Date.
| Section
11. | No
Impairment. |
The
Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issuance or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, willfully avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of the Warrants or this Agreement, and shall 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 in order to protect the rights of Warrantholder under the Warrants
and this Agreement against wrongful impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company: (i) shall not set or increase
the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon exercise, and (ii) shall take all actions that are necessary
or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise
of the Warrants.

with, any distribution thereof.
C.
Warrantholder understands that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares are being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from the registration
requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Warrantholder set forth herein in order to determine the applicability
of such exemptions and the suitability of the Warrantholder to acquire the Warrants and Warrant Shares. In this regard, Warrantholder
represents, warrants and agrees that:
(1)
Warrantholder is not a U.S. Person (as defined in the Securities Act) and is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the
Securities Act) of the Company and is not acquiring the Warrants and Warrant Shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person.
(2)
At the time of the origination of contact concerning this Agreement and the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Warrantholder
was outside of the United States.
(3)
Warrantholder will not, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of the Warrants and Warrant Shares and ending on the first
anniversary of such date, or such shorter period as may be permitted by Regulation S or other applicable securities law (the “Restricted
Period”), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Warrants and Warrant Shares in the United States, or to a U.S. Person for
the account or for the benefit of a U.S. Person, or otherwise in a manner that is not in compliance with Regulation S.
(4)
Warrantholder will, after expiration of the Restricted Period, offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Warrants and Warrant Shares
only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption therefrom and, in accordance with all applicable state
and foreign securities laws and this Agreement.
(5)
Warrantholder was not in the United States, engaged in, and prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period will not engage in, any
short selling of or any hedging transaction with respect to the Warrants and Warrant Shares, including without limitation, any put, call
or other option transaction, option writing or equity swap.
(6)
Neither Warrantholder nor or any person acting on Warrantholder’s behalf has engaged, nor will engage, in any directed selling
efforts to a U.S. Person with respect to the Warrants and Warrant Shares and the Warrantholder and any person acting on Warrantholder’s
behalf have complied and will comply with the “offering restrictions” requirements of Regulation S under the Securities Act.
(7)
The transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been pre- arranged with a buyer located in the United States or with a U.S.
Person, and are not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(8)
Neither Warrantholder nor any person acting on Warrantholder’s behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for the purpose
of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States, its territories or possessions,
for any of the Warrants and Warrant Shares. Warrantholder agrees not to cause any advertisement of the Warrants and Warrant Shares to
be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public place and not to issue any circular relating to the Warrants and
Warrant Shares, except such advertisements that include the statements required by Regulation S under the Securities Act, and only offshore
and not in the U.S. or its territories, and only in compliance with any local applicable securities laws.
(9)
Each certificate representing the Warrants and Warrant Shares shall be endorsed with the following legends, in addition to any other
legend required to be placed thereon by applicable federal or state securities laws:
(A)
“THE SECURITIES ARE BEING OFFERED TO INVESTORS WHO ARE NOT U.S. PERSONS (AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED (“THE SECURITIES ACT”)) AND WITHOUT REGISTRATION WITH THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT IN RELIANCE UPON REGULATION S PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.”
(B)
“TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES IS PROHIBITED, EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE
WITH THE SECURITIES ACT.”
(10)
Warrantholder consents to the Company making a notation on its records or giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Company in
order to implement the restrictions on transfer of the Warrants and Warrant Shares set forth in this Section 12.
| Section
13. | No
Rights or Liabilities as Stockholder. |
No
holder, as such, of any Warrant Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Preferred Stock which
may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the Warrants represented thereby for any purpose whatever, nor shall anything contained
herein or in any Warrant Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Warrant Certificate, as such, any of the rights of
a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting
thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification
of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), or to receive notice
of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders or to receive dividend or subscription rights, or otherwise, until such Warrant Certificate
shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions hereof and the receipt and collection of the Exercise Price and any other
amounts payable upon such exercise by the Company. No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Warrantholder to purchase
Warrant Shares shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
| Section
14. | Registrable
Securities. |
For
purposes of this Agreement, “Registrable Securities” means (i) the Warrant Shares; (ii) securities issued or issuable
upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the Warrant Shares; and (iii) any other security
issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for, in replacement or redemption of, or in reduction of the
liquidation value of, any of the securities referred to in the preceding clauses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Registrable Securities
shall cease to be Registrable Securities when such securities have been sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public
distribution or a public securities transaction or when such securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 as determined by the counsel
to the Company.
| Section
15. | Piggy-Back
Registration Rights. |
If
at any time when there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities, the Company determines
to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account
or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or its then equivalents
relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable
in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans), the Company shall send to each holder of Registrable Securities (a
“Holder”) written notice of such determination and, if within seven (7) business days after receipt of such notice, any such
Holder shall so request in writing (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by the Holder),
the Company will cause the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested
to register by the Holder, to the extent required to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered. The Company
shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered. In
the case of an underwritten public offering, if the managing underwriter(s) or underwriter(s) should reasonably object to the inclusion
of the Registrable Securities in such registration statement, then if the Company after consultation with the managing underwriter should
reasonably determine that the inclusion of such Registrable Securities, would materially adversely affect the offering contemplated in
such registration statement, and based on such determination recommends inclusion in such registration statement of fewer or none of
the Registrable Securities of the Holder, then (x) the number of Registrable Securities of the Holder included in such registration statement
shall be reduced, if the Company after consultation with the underwriter(s) recommends the inclusion of fewer Registrable Securities,
or (y) none of the Registrable Securities of the Holder shall be included in such registration statement, if the Company after consultation
with the underwriter(s) recommends the inclusion of none of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that if securities are being
offered for the account of other persons or entities as well as the Company, such reduction shall not represent a greater fraction of
the number of Registrable Securities intended to be offered by the Holder than the fraction of similar reductions imposed on such other
persons or entities (other than the Company).
| Section
16. | Fees
and Expenses Incident to Registration. |
All
fees and expenses incident to the inclusion of the Registrable Securities on a registration statement pursuant to Section 15 hereof
shall be borne by the Company whether or not the registration statement is filed or becomes effective and whether or not any Registrable
Securities are sold pursuant to the registration statement.
| Section
17. | Fractional
Interests. |
The
Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of the Warrants or to distribute certificates
that evidence fractional shares of Preferred Stock. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 14,
be issuable on the exercise of a Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued by the Company shall be rounded to the nearest whole
number, with one-half or greater being rounded up.
All
notices, consents, requests, waivers or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement (each a “Notice”)
shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given (a) if hand delivered, (b) if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier, or
(c) if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the last known address of the recipient, or
such other address as shall be furnished by any of the parties hereto in a Notice. Any Notice shall be deemed given upon receipt.
| Section
19. | Supplements,
Amendments and Waivers. |
This
Agreement may be supplemented or amended only by a subsequent writing signed by each of the parties hereto (or their successors or permitted
assigns), and any provision hereof may be waived only by a written instrument signed by the party charged therewith.
| Section
20. | Successors
and Assigns. |
Except
as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Warrants issued under this Agreement may be assigned by Warrantholder only
to the extent such assignment satisfies the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement; any attempted assignment of Warrants
in violation of the terms hereof shall be void ab initio.
This
Agreement (other than Sections 8C, 12, and Sections 15 through 29, inclusive, and all related definitions, all of which shall
survive such termination) shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the Warrant Expiration Date and (ii) the date on which all Warrants have
been exercised by the Warrantholder.
| Section
22. | Governing
Law; Jurisdiction. |
A.
Governing Law. This Agreement and each Warrant Certificate issued hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States applicable herein.
B.
Submission to Jurisdiction. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property,
to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in respect of actions brought against it as a
defendant, in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Warrant Certificates and Warrants to
be issued pursuant hereto, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, suit or proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
C.
Venue. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, or the Warrant Certificates and Warrants to be issued pursuant hereto, in any court referred to in this Subsection B. Each
of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance
of such action, suit proceeding in any such court and waives any other right to which it may be entitled on account of its place of residence
or domicile.
| Section
23. | Third
Party Beneficiaries. |
Each
party intends that this Agreement shall not benefit or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf of any Person other than the
parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.
The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
| Section
25. | Entire
Agreement. |
This
Agreement, together with the Warrant Certificates and Exhibits, and the Subscription Agreement, dated of even date herewith, by and between
the Company and the Warrantholder, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and shall supersede any prior agreements and understandings between the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter.
Each
of the parties hereto shall pay its own expenses and costs incurred or to be incurred in negotiating, closing and carrying out this Agreement
and in consummating the transactions contemplated herein, except as otherwise expressly provided for herein.
| Section
27. | Neutral
Construction. |
The
parties to this Agreement agree that this Agreement was negotiated fairly between them at arm’s length and that the final terms
of this Agreement are the product of the parties’ negotiations. Each party represents and warrants that it has sought and received
legal counsel of its own choosing with regard to the contents of this Agreement and the rights and obligations affected hereby. The parties
agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to have been jointly and equally drafting by them, and that the provisions of this Agreement
therefore should not be construed against a party or parties on the grounds that such party or parties drafted or was more responsible
for the drafting of any such provision(s).
| Section
28. | Representations
and Warranties. |
The
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Warrantholder that:
(a)
the Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to (i) execute and deliver this Agreement and (ii) issue and sell the Preferred
Stock upon the conversion thereof and carry out provisions of this Agreement. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers,
directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance of all obligations
of the Company hereunder, and the authorization (or reservation for issuance), sale and issuance of the Preferred Stock to be sold hereunder
has been taken or will be taken prior to the date hereof;
(b)
this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i)
as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to application affecting enforcement
of creditor’s rights generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief
of other equitable remedies;
(c)
the Preferred Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof that is being purchased hereunder, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement for the consideration expressed herein, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
and will be free of restrictions on transfer, other than restrictions on transfer under applicable state and federal securities laws;
(d)
subject in part to the truth and accuracy of Warrantholder’s representations set forth in Section 12 of this Agreement, the
offer, sale and issuance of the Preferred Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof as contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the qualification or registration requirements of any state securities or other
applicable blue sky laws; and
(e)
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result
in any such violation, or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default
under any such provision or an event that results in creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or the
suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonremoval of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to
the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.
This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile or other electronic transmission, and each such counterpart shall for all
purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.

Day (as defined herein).
1.
Maturity Date; Interest. The Outstanding Principal Balance and all accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on or before
December 31st, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”) or any date thereafter as to be agreed or extended by the parties.
All sums advanced pursuant to this Note shall bear interest from the date of each Advance is made until paid in full at the rate of six

(d)
any dispute that may arise between Maker and any governmental unit, including without limitation any violation or alleged violation of
any governmental rule; and
(e)
the commencement of any proceeding by a governmental unit or litigation, suit, action or proceeding, at law or in equity against Maker
as defendant, co-defendant, third party defendant or otherwise, or by Maker as plaintiff, as counter-claimant or otherwise.

by merger, consolidation, purchase of equity interests or otherwise.
4.3.
Change of Management; Change of Control. (a) Allow a change in the ownership structure of Maker, whether by the issuance, sale,
transfer, exchange, assignment or other direct or indirect hypothecation of its equity interests, or by the issuance of subscriptions,
warrants, options, convertible securities, or other rights (fixed, contingent or otherwise) to purchase or otherwise acquire equity interests,
or (b) permit any person other than the current officers to hold their respective offices, in each case unless a replacement reasonably
acceptable to Holder is appointed.
4.4.
Sale or Disposition. Sell or otherwise dispose of all or any asset or other property or grant any person an option to acquire
any asset of Maker or other property.
4.5.

written approval of Holder.
4.12.
Transactions with Affiliates. Make, enter into or otherwise undertake any transaction with any affiliate, unless such transaction
has been approved or otherwise consented to pursuant to the applicable terms of Maker’s charter documents and is at least as favorable
to Maker as a similar transaction entered into at arms’ length with an unrelated third party.
5.
Holder’s Investment Representations.
(a) The
Holder is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. The Holder understands and acknowledges that the Note has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), or any state or foreign securities laws, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state and foreign securities laws, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. The Holder further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with respect to the Note.
(b) The
Holder understands that an active public market for the Maker’s securities may not now exist and that there will never be an active
public market for the Note.
(c) The
Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act and shall submit to the Maker such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Maker.
(d) Neither
the Holder nor, to its knowledge, any person or entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with it, nor any person or
entity having a beneficial interest in it, nor any person on whose behalf the Holder is acting: (i) is a person listed in the Annex to
Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions
with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly
to a non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior non-U.S. political figure or an immediate family member or close associate of such figure;
or (v) is otherwise prohibited from investing in the Maker pursuant to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset
control laws, regulations, rules or orders (categories (i) through (v), each a “Prohibited Seller”). The Holder agrees
to provide the Maker, promptly upon request, all information that is reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S.
anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. The Holder consents to the disclosure to
U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Maker and its affiliates and agents of such information about such member as is
reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money-laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations,
rules and orders. The Holder acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Note, the Maker reasonably believes that such member
is a Prohibited Seller or is otherwise engaged in suspicious activity or refuses to promptly provide information that the Maker requests,
the Maker has the right or may be obligated to prohibit additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in accordance
with applicable regulations or immediately require such member to transfer the Note. The Holder further acknowledges that such member
will have no claim against the Maker or any of its affiliates or agents for any form of damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.
(e) The
Holder or its duly authorized representative realizes that because of the inherently speculative nature of business activities of the
kind contemplated by the Holder, the Holder’s financial position and results of operations may be expected to fluctuate from period
to period and will, generally, involve a high degree of financial and market risk that can result in substantial or, at times, even total
loss of the value of the Note.
5A. Events of Default. In case one or more of the following events (each, an “Event of Default”) (whatever the
reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any
judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body) shall have occurred
and be continuing:
a. Default
in the payment, when due or declared due, of the Outstanding Principal Amount and accrued interest on the Maturity Date;
b. Default
in the payment, when due or declared due, of accrued interest hereunder;
c. Any
representation or warranty made by Maker in this Note or in connection with any borrowing or request for an Advance hereunder is untrue
in any material respect at the time when made; or
d. Bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings, voluntary or involuntary, for relief under any bankruptcy
law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Maker and, in the case of involuntary proceedings, have
not been dismissed within 61 days,
then,
in each case where an Event of Default occurs, Holder, by notice in writing to Maker shall inform Maker of such Event of Default and
if such default is not cured within five business days from the date such notice is received by Maker, then Holder, may, at its option,
declare the Outstanding Principal Amount and all accrued interest due thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration
the same shall become immediately due and payable. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which,
if susceptible to cure is not cured as provided above, otherwise then from the first date of such occurrence, the annual interest rate
on this Note shall be the higher of fifteen percent (15%) or the highest rate permitted by law.

limitation, all costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Holder in connection with any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar proceeding involving Maker or which in any way affect the exercise
by Holder of its rights and remedies under this Note, or any other document or instrument securing, evidencing or relating to the indebtedness

to or waiver of any such right and/or remedy on any future occasion.
9.
Purpose of Loan. Maker certifies that the loan evidenced by this Note is obtained for business or commercial purposes and that the
proceeds thereof will not be used primarily for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.

the aggregate of the Advance(s) (as defined herein) requested by and made to Maker (the “Outstanding Principal
Balance”), in such currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this promissory note

from the proposed Advance will be used; (iii) the party or parties to whom funds will be paid on behalf of Maker; and (iv) the proposed

declines to fund the requested Advance; provided, however, that requests for Advances will not be unreasonably withheld
and will be timely granted. On each Borrowing Date, Maker authorizes Holder to disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance to the
designated payee(s), as set forth in the applicable Written Request. It is understood and agreed that Holder shall have no responsibility
for the application of proceeds except to disburse proceeds to the designated payee(s) and such proceeds so disbursed shall be deemed
to have been disbursed to the Maker. The outstanding amount of all Advances made by the Holder to the Maker under this Note shall not
exceed the Stated Principal Amount.

5.
Holder’s Investment Representations.
(a) The
Holder is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. The Holder understands and acknowledges that the Note has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), or any state or foreign securities laws, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state and foreign securities laws, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. The Holder further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with respect to the Note.
(b) The
Holder understands that an active public market for the Maker’s securities may not now exist and that there will never be an active
public market for the Note.
(c) The
Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act and shall submit to the Maker such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Maker.
(d) Neither
the Holder nor, to its knowledge, any person or entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with it, nor any person or
entity having a beneficial interest in it, nor any person on whose behalf the Holder is acting: (i) is a person listed in the Annex to
Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions
with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly

to provide the Maker, promptly upon request, all information that is reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S.
anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. The Holder consents to the disclosure to
U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Maker and its affiliates and agents of such information about such member as is
reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money-laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations,
rules and orders. The Holder acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Note, the Maker reasonably believes that such member
is a Prohibited Seller or is otherwise engaged in suspicious activity or refuses to promptly provide information that the Maker requests,
the Maker has the right or may be obligated to prohibit additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in accordance
with applicable regulations or immediately require such member to transfer the Note. The Holder further acknowledges that such member
will have no claim against the Maker or any of its affiliates or agents for any form of damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.
(e) The
Holder or its duly authorized representative realizes that because of the inherently speculative nature of business activities of the

to period and will, generally, involve a high degree of financial and market risk that can result in substantial or, at times, even total
loss of the value of the Note.
5A. Events of Default. In case one or more of the following events (each, an “Event of Default”) (whatever the
reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any

and be continuing:
a. Default
in the payment, when due or declared due, of the Outstanding Principal Amount and accrued interest on the Maturity Date;

c. Any
representation or warranty made by Maker in this Note or in connection with any borrowing or request for an Advance hereunder is untrue

declare the Outstanding Principal Amount and all accrued interest due thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration
the same shall become immediately due and payable. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which,
if susceptible to cure is not cured as provided above, otherwise then from the first date of such occurrence, the annual interest rate
on this Note shall be the higher of fifteen percent (15%) or the highest rate permitted by law.

purposes of this Agreement the Company and its subsidiaries shall be referred to as the Company), giving, on a full time basis the
full benefit of his knowledge, expertise, technical skill and ingenuity, in all matters involved in or relating to the business
thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby clarified that in the event the Consultant ceases to provide the consulting

As part of his consultancy duties, the Executive (a) shall devote his utmost knowledge and best skill to the performance of his duties
and (b) shall devote most of his business time to the rendition of such services, subject to absences for holidays, customary vacations

with the Company, in any market in which the Company is then operating or proposing to operate, at any time during the Non-Compete Period
or as of the end of the Non-Compete Period. Nothing in this Section will be deemed to prohibit either the Consultant and/or the Executive
from being a passive owner of less than 5% (either separately or together) of the outstanding stock of a corporation engaged in a competing
business as described above of any class which is publicly traded, so long as it or he, as the case may be, has no direct or indirect
participation in the business of such corporation.
(b)
Non-Solicitation. Neither the Consultant nor the Executive will, for a period of five years from the expiration or termination
of the Term, directly or indirectly, individually or through another entity or affiliate (y) solicit or assist any other person or entity

|
3.2. |
The Employee represents and warrants that except as specifically set forth in Appendix 1, as of the day of the Employee’s first engagement with the Company, the Employee has not, in any time in the past made, alone or jointly with others, conceived, reduced to practice or created any Inventions related in any way, directly or indirectly, to the field of business of the Company, or to current or anticipated research and development, and has no rights, as co-inventor or otherwise, in any such Inventions. The Employee undertakes and covenants that he will promptly disclose in confidence to the Company all Inventions deemed as Company Inventions, including Service Inventions (as defined in Section 132 of the Patent Law). The Employee agrees and undertakes not to disclose to the Company any confidential information of any third party and, in the framework of his employment by the Company, not to make any use of any intellectual property rights of any third party. |
|
3.3. |
The Employee hereby irrevocably transfers and assigns to the Company all worldwide patents, patent applications, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights in any Company Invention, and any and all moral rights that he may have in or with respect to any Company Invention. |

3.5. |
Any assignment of copyright hereunder (and any ownership of a copyright as a work made for hire) includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights” (collectively, “Moral Rights”). To the extent such Moral Rights cannot be assigned under applicable law and to the extent the following is allowed by the laws in the various countries where Moral Rights exist, the Employee hereby waives such Moral Rights and consents to any action of the Company that would violate such Moral Rights in the absence of such consent. |
|
3.6. |

3.7. |
For the removal of any doubt, it is hereby clarified that the provisions contained in this Section 3 will apply also to any “Service Inventions” as defined in the Israeli Patent Law, 1967 (the “Patent Law”). However, in no event will such Service Invention become the property of the Employee and the provisions contained in Section 132(b) of the Patent Law shall not apply unless the Company provides in writing otherwise. The Employee will not be entitled to royalties or other payment with regard to any Company Inventions, Service Inventions or any of the intellectual property rights set forth above, including any commercialization of such Company Inventions, Service Inventions or other intellectual property rights and the Employee hereby explicitly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments. Without derogating from the aforesaid, it is hereby clarified that the level of Employee’s compensation and consideration has been established based upon the aforementioned waiver of rights to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments, and that the Employee’s compensation as an employee of the Company includes the full and final compensation and consideration to which the Employee may be entitled under law with respect to any Company Inventions, Service Inventions, or other intellectual property rights. This clause constitutes an express waiver of Employee’s rights under Section 132 of the Patent Law. |
|
3.8. |
Without derogating from the provisions of this Section 3, it is clarified that the Employee conclusively and irrevocably agrees that under no circumstances shall the Employee be entitled to take any measures whatsoever against the Company, directly or indirectly, alone or through a representative, whether legal or otherwise, where the remedy sought, whether as the principal remedy or as a secondary remedy, is a restraining order and/or an injunction and/or a specific performance order and/or any other remedy which entails placing a limitation on the use by the Company or anyone on its behalf of the Inventions (hereinafter – “Operative Orders”). It is clarified that the Employee shall not under any circumstances be entitled to obtain Operative Orders, whether all or some, against the Company or anyone on its behalf, in an action or any other proceeding initiated by the Employee or someone on his behalf against the Company, the foregoing whether it is alleged (contrary to this Proprietary Information, Assignment of Inventions and Non-Competition Agreement and in breach of it) that the Employee supposedly has rights in the Inventions, or whether it is alleged that there is an entitlement to remedies based on other grounds. |
4. |
Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation |
|
4.1. |
In consideration of the Employee’s terms of employment hereunder, which include special compensation for the Employee’s undertakings under this Section 4.1 and the following Section 4.2, and in order to enable the Company to effectively protect its Proprietary Information, the Employee agrees and undertakes that he will not, so long as the Agreement is in effect and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination or expiration of the Agreement, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever, engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by, or have any connection with any business or venture that is engaged in any activities competing with the activities of the Company. |

|
4.2. |
The Employee agrees and undertakes that during the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination or expiration of this engagement for whatever reason, the Employee will not, directly or indirectly, including personally or in any business in which the Employee may be an officer, director or shareholder, solicit for employment any person who is employed by the Company, or any person retained by the Company as a consultant, supplier, advisor or the like who is subject to an undertaking towards the Company to refrain from engagement in activities competing with the activities of the Company (for purposes hereof, a “Consultant”), or was retained as an employee or a Consultant during the six months preceding termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company. |
5. |
Reasonableness of Protective Covenants |
Insofar as the protective covenants set forth in this Schedule are concerned, the Employee specifically acknowledges, stipulates and agrees as follows: (i) the protective covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill, property and Proprietary Information of the Company, and the operations and business of the Company; and (ii) the time duration of the protective covenants is reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill and the operations and business of Company, and does not impose a greater restrain than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interests of the Company. Nevertheless, if any of the restrictions set forth in this Schedule is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable or overly-broad as to geographic area, scope or time or to be otherwise unenforceable, the parties hereto intend for the restrictions set forth in this Schedule to be reformed, modified and redefined by such court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified by such court, to be fully enforced.
The Employee acknowledges that the legal remedies for breach of the provisions of this Schedule may be found inadequate and therefore agrees that, in addition to all of the remedies available to the Company in the event of a breach or a threatened breach of any of such provisions, the Company may also, in addition to any other remedies which may be available under applicable law, obtain temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions against any and all such actions.
The Employee recognizes and agrees: (i) that this Schedule is necessary and essential to protect the business of the Company and to realize and derive all the benefits, rights and expectations of conducting Company’s business; (ii) that the area and duration of the protective covenants contained herein are in all things reasonable; (iii) that good and valuable consideration exists under the Agreement, for the Employee’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Schedule; and (iv) that the terms of this Schedule are in addition to, and do not derogate from, any obligation to which the Employee may be subject under applicable law or any other agreement or Company’s policy.

business, unless mandatory for the performance of his Function pursuant to his work with

shall not make any use of the Confidential Information, whether during or after the Period
of the Contract, but only use required for performing his Function pursuant to his work with
the Company. |

| 10.5 | Any
waiver by one party of any breach of or non-compliance with any of the provisions hereof,

|
○ |
Basis of the Default Interest – Bank of Israel Interest: 0.25% per annum. |

○ |
Addition for risk for the Amounts in Arrears – 14 percentage points. |

○ |
The nominal rate per annum of the Default Interest – 17.1%. |
|
○ |
The adjusted rate per annum of the Default Interest – 18.228% |
|
○ |
Dates for updating Default Interest – Default Interest will be updated from time to time whenever a change occurs in Bank of Israel Interest. |
|
● |
In as much as according to the provisions of Clause 9 below the Loan is a “Linked Loan” – the rate of the Default Interest will be a fixed rate as stated below |
|
○ |
The nominal rate per annum of the Default Interest – 17%. |
|
○ |
The adjusted rate per annum of the Default Interest – 18.114% |

The daily amounts of Default Interest as aforesaid will accrue according to the calculations of the Bank, and will be charged to the Loan Account at the end of every Quarter, on the first day of the succeeding Quarter. The daily amounts of Default Interest accumulated as aforesaid shall also bear interest at the rate of the Default Interest which shall also be calculated in the same way as is calculated the Default Interest on the principal of the Amount in Arrears, as aforesaid, until the date of the final and absolute payment in full of the Amounts in Arrears. The first and last periods – for which the Default Interest is charged to the Loan Account – may be shorter than the rest of the periods for which the Default Interest is charged to the Loan Account as aforesaid. |
|
8.4 |
Reduced Default Interest – The Bank may calculate interest on any of the Amounts in Arrears at a rate which is lower than the rate of Default Interest as provided in this clause above, with respect to all or part of the period of arrears in the repayment of all or part of the Amounts in Arrears, all at the discretion of the Bank (hereinafter: “Reduced Default Interest”). It is clarified that the calculation of Reduced Default Interest with respect to any amount and for any period in no way obligates the Bank to continue with the calculation of Reduced Default Interest for any additional amount or for any additional period and the Bank may at any time resume calculating interest with respect to any of the Amounts in Arrears at the rate of Default Interest as provided in this clause above, at its discretion, for whatever reason and without being required to notify us thereof in advance. |

|
9.2 |

If it transpires that the Index Published Late has risen or fallen in comparison to the Provisional Index, we shall be debited or credited by the Bank with the resulting differences, as the case may be; |
|
9.5 |
If it transpires that the Index Published Late did not rise or fall in comparison to the Base Index, we shall pay the Amount Linked to the Index without any linkage; |
|
9.6 |
For the purpose of calculating Linkage Differences, as provided above, on account of the Amount in Arrears and on account of Default Interest, the Base Index shall be the last known Index on the Agreed Repayment Date of the Amount in Arrears, or – if no date has been fixed for the payment thereof, the last known Index on the date we are required to pay any Amount in Arrears as aforesaid (hereinafter: “the Base Index for the Amount in Arrears”). The Linkage Differences shall be calculated on the Amount in Arrears and on the Default Interest as provided above, from the Agreed Repayment Date of the Amount in Arrears, or – if no date has been fixed for the payment thereof – from the date we are required to pay any such Amount in Arrears and until the Actual Repayment Date of such amount. If it transpires that the New Index has not risen and has not fallen in comparison to the Base Index for the Amount in Arrears, no Linkage Differences shall be paid on the respective Amount in Arrears and on the respective Default Interest for the period of the arrears in the payment thereof. |

|

Payment of Amounts and Debiting Accounts |
|
17.1 |
We shall pay to the Bank the Amounts of the Loan with respect to which an agreed payment date has been fixed, on the Agreed Payment Date as aforesaid. Any amount of the Amounts of the Loan for which no Agreed Payment Date has been fixed, shall be paid by us on the Bank’s first written demand, coupled with Interest at the Maximum Rate, commencing from the date of the demand or, if there is specified in the Bank’s demand a later date of payment, commencing from the date specified in the demand, and until the actual date of payment. Whenever we do not pay any amount of the Amounts of the Loan on the Agreed Repayment Date thereof, or on the date on which we were called upon to pay same as provided above, in so far as a demand was made of us, the Bank may debit the Account with the amount unpaid by us as aforesaid, and post any amount received from us or on our behalf to the credit of whichever account the Bank sees fit and may transfer any amount standing to our credit to any account as the Bank sees fit. |
בנק הפועלים בע"מ | 29 עמוד 15 מתוך | 4.20 9470000052 |
|
17.2 |
Whenever the Bank has the right to debit the Account (including the Current Account) with any of the Amounts of the Loan, the Bank may do so, subject to any Law, regardless of whether the Account shows a credit balance or a debit balance or would show a debit balance as a result of the Account being debited with such amount. Whenever there is no Balance Available for Withdrawal, the Bank may debit any other Sub-Account and if we also maintain another account with the Bank, the Bank may debit any other account as aforesaid (including another account maintained for us together with others) with the Bank with the required amount. |
|
17.3 |
Furthermore, the Bank may purchase any amount in Foreign Currency which may be required in order to discharge loan amounts denominated in any Foreign Currency or sell any Foreign Currency which may be available to us at the Bank, and apply the proceeds of the sale in order to discharge loan amounts denominated in Israeli currency, or in order to purchase another Foreign Currency which may be required in order to discharge any of the Amounts of the Loan, at the discretion of the Bank. Any sale or purchase of Foreign Currency as aforesaid shall be effected at the Bank’s Customary Buying Rate or the Bank’s Customary Selling Rate (as the case may be), which is known at the time of sale or purchase. We hereby give the Bank irrevocable authorization in advance to act as provided in this clause above. |
|
17.4 |
The Bank shall act according to the Debit Instruction which may be given to it, save in cases where the following two conditions are met on a cumulative basis: (1) We notify the Bank, in writing, at least three Banking Business Days in Israel prior to the Agreed Repayment Date of any of the Amounts of the Loan denominated in Israeli Shekels or at least three Business Days prior to the Agreed Repayment Date of any of the Amounts of the Loan denominated in Foreign Currency - that we are about to pay directly an amount due to the Bank at such time on account of the Amounts of the Loan (hereinafter: “the Amount for Direct Payment”); and – (2) We pay directly the Amount for Direct Payment on its Agreed Repayment Date. Once we have paid the Amount for Direct Payment as provided above, the Bank shall act according to the Debit Instruction save in relation to the Amount for Direct Payment actually paid by us as aforesaid. |
|
17.5 |
In the event that the Account To Be Debited is a Current Account maintained with the Bank, if on the Agreed Repayment Date of any of the Amounts of the Loan (hereinafter: “the Amounts To Be Debited”), there is no Balance Available for Withdrawal in the Account To Be Debited to cover in full the Amounts To Be Debited (hereinafter: a “Balance Available for Payment”), the Bank may refrain from executing the Debit Instruction on the Agreed Repayment Date as aforesaid, in relation to any of the Amounts To Be Debited in whole or in part. |
|
17.6 |
Without derogating from the above provisions, the Bank may execute the Debit Instruction on the Agreed Repayment Date or, from time to time, on any Banking Business Day in Israel following the Agreed Repayment Date on which there is in the Account To Be Debited a Balance Available for Withdrawal of any sum, by debiting the Account To Be Debited with the amount of the Balance Available for Withdrawal, in whole or in part, all at the discretion of the Bank and subject to any Law. If the Bank debits the Account To Be Debited with any of the Amounts To Be Debited in whole or in part, and it transpires that in the Account To Be Debited there is an insufficient Balance Available for Withdrawal of such amount, the Bank may cancel any such debit, in whole or in part, and treat any amount the debiting of which was cancelled as an unpaid amount on account of the Amounts of the Loan. Accordingly, the Bank may take any action as it deems appropriate under the Loan Documentation. |
|
17.7 |
The Bank is not obliged to check whether on any of the dates of execution of the Debit Instruction there is in the Account To Be Debited a Balance Available for Withdrawal sufficient for executing the Debit Instruction and we shall bear any expenses liable to arise from the absence of any Balance Available for Withdrawal as aforesaid on such date, all of the foregoing being subject to any Law. In any case where the repayment of any of the Amounts of the Loan is effected by means of debiting the Account To Be Debited, it may be that the rate of the interest with which we may be charged on Debit Balances which may be incurred as a result thereof in the Account To Be Debited, will be higher than the rate of the Default Interest on the Amounts of the Loan. No provision of this Application operates so as to detract from any of the rights of the Bank, including its right to debit any Current Account with any of the Amounts of the Credit in case we do not pay any such amount on the Agreed Repayment Date therefor. |

Administration of the Plan.
(a)
Plan Administrator.
(i)
General. With respect to grants of Awards to Directors, Employees or Consultants, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board
or (B) a Committee designated by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable Laws.
Any such Committee shall be constituted to permit such grants and related transactions to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange
Act in accordance with Rule 16b-3. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise
directed by the Board. Further, with respect to Consultants and Employees (who are neither Directors or Officers), the Board may authorize
one or more Officers to grant Awards to such persons and may limit such authority as the Board determines from time to time.
(ii)
Administration With Respect to Directors who are not Employees. Notwithstanding the above, with respect to grants of Awards to
Directors who are not Employees, the Board shall have the exclusive power to select such Directors to participate in the Plan and to
determine the number of Non-qualified Stock Options, SARs or shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or other benefits under
the Plan to be so awarded. If the Board appoints a Committee to administer the Plan, it may delegate to the Committee administration
of all other aspects of the Awards made to such Directors who are not Employees.
(iii)
Administration With Respect to Israeli Grantees. With respect to grants of Awards to Israeli Grantees, the Plan shall be administered
by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee or one or more Officers designated by the Board, which Committee or Officers shall be constituted
or appointed in such a manner as to satisfy the ITA and the Applicable Laws applicable to Awards for Israeli Grantees. Once appointed,
such Committee or Officer shall continue to serve until otherwise directed by the Board.
(iv)
Administration Errors. In the event an Award is granted in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this subsection (a), such
Award shall be presumptively valid as of its grant date to the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws.
(b)
Powers of the Administrator. Subject to Applicable Laws and the provisions of the Plan (including any other powers given to the
Administrator hereunder), and except as otherwise provided by the Board, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:
(i)
to select the Employees, Directors and Consultants to whom Awards may be granted from time to time hereunder;
(ii)
to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted hereunder;
(iii)
to determine the number of Shares or the amount of other consideration to be covered by each Award granted hereunder, the exercise price
or purchase price of each Option or other Award, the duration of each Award and the times at which each Award shall become exercisable;
(iv)
to approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan;
(v)
to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder, including but not limited to: the exercise price, the time or times
when Options may be exercised or other Awards vest (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of
forfeiture restrictions and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or Shares related thereto, based in each case on such factors
as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;
(vi)
to amend the terms of any outstanding Award granted under the Plan, provided that any amendment that would adversely affect the Grantee’s
rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Grantee’s written consent; provided, however, that an amendment
or modification that may cause an Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-qualified Stock Option shall not be treated as adversely affecting
the rights of the Grantee. The reduction of the exercise price of any Option awarded under the Plan and the base appreciation amount
of any SAR awarded under the Plan shall not be subject to stockholder approval and canceling an Option or SAR at a time when its exercise
price or base appreciation amount (as applicable) exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares, in exchange for another Option,
SAR, Restricted Stock, or other Award shall not be subject to stockholder approval and shall be at the discretion of the Administrator;;
(vii)
to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards, including without limitation, any notice of award or Award Agreement, granted
pursuant to the Plan;
(viii)
to grant Awards to Employees, Directors and Consultants employed outside the U.S. on such terms and conditions different from those specified
in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Administrator, be necessary or desirable to further the purpose of the Plan;
(ix)
to designate Awards as Incentive Stock Options or Non-qualified Stock Options, or as 102 Options (whether through a trustee or not) or
3(i) Options subject to the limitations under the ITA or any other Applicable Law and to determine the type and route of the Trustee
102 Options;
(x)
to determine the Fair Market Value of the Shares in accordance with the provisions of the Plan; and
(xi)
to take all such other action and make all such other determinations and interpretations, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan,
as the Administrator deems appropriate.
(c)
Extent and Effect of Administrator’s Determinations. The express grant in the Plan of any specific power to the Administrator
shall not be construed as limiting any power or authority of the Administrator; provided, however, that the Administrator may not exercise
any right or power reserved to the Board. Any decision made, or action taken, by the Administrator or in connection with the administration
of this Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in the Plan.
(d)
Indemnification. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the Board or as Officers or
Employees of the Company or a Related Entity, the Administrator shall be defended and indemnified by the Company to the extent permitted
by law against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense
of any claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be
a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or any Award granted hereunder, and against
all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction
of a judgment in any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged
in such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct;
provided, however, that within fifteen (15) days after the institution of such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, such
person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at the Company’s expense to defend the same.
5.
Eligibility. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants. Incentive Stock
Options may be granted only to Employees of the Company or a Parent or a Subsidiary of the Company. An Employee, Director or Consultant
who has been granted an Award may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional Awards. Awards may be granted to such Employees, Directors
or Consultants who are residing in non-U.S. jurisdictions as the Administrator may determine from time to time; provided, however, that
Awards to Israeli Grantees under Section 102 or Section 3(i) of the Tax Ordinance shall be subject to Section 22 below.
6.
Types, Terms, Conditions and Limitations of Awards.
(a)
Types of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to award any type of arrangement to an Employee, Director or Consultant
that is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that by its terms involves or might involve the issuance of (i) Shares,
(ii) cash or (iii) an Option, a SAR or similar right with a fixed or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares and
with an exercise or conversion privilege related to the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events or the satisfaction of
performance criteria or other conditions. Such awards include, without limitation, Options, SARs, and sales or bonuses of Restricted
Stock or Restricted Stock Units, and an Award may consist of one such security or benefit or two (2) or more of them in any combination
or alternative.
(b)
Designation of Award. Each Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated
as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-qualified Stock Option and with respect to Israeli Grantees may be further designated as
102 Options or 3(i) Options under the Tax Ordinance subject to the qualifications described in Section 22 below. However, notwithstanding
such designation, an Option will qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under the Code only to the extent the $100,000 dollar limitation
of Section 422(d) of the Code is not exceeded. The $100,000 limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is calculated based on
the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to Options designated as Incentive Stock Options that become exercisable for the
first time by a Grantee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company). For purposes
of this calculation, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market
Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the grant date of the relevant Option.
(c)
Conditions of Award. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms and conditions
of each Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions,
form of payment (cash, Shares or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment contingencies and satisfaction of any performance
criteria.
(d)
Additional Conditions for Performance-Based Awards. The performance criteria established by the Administrator may be based on
any one of, or combination of, the following: (i) increase in share price, (ii) earnings per share, (iii) total stockholder return, (iv)
operating margin, (v) gross margin, (vi) return on equity, (vii) return on assets, (viii) return on investment, (ix) operating income,
(x) net operating income, (xi) pre-tax profit, (xii) cash flow, (xiii) revenue, (xiv) expenses, (xv) earnings before interest, taxes
and depreciation, (xvi) economic value added, (xvii) market share, (xviii) satisfactory completion of clinical trials or scientific benchmarks
and (xix) receipt of regulatory approvals. Such criteria shall be established before twenty-five percent (25%) of the applicable performance
period has elapsed (or within ninety (90) days of a grant date, if earlier). The performance criteria may be applicable to the Company,
Related Entities, and/or any individual business units of the Company or any Related Entity.
The
extent to which performance criteria are met will be determined solely and in writing by the Administrator and partial achievement of
the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting corresponding to the degree of achievement as specified in the Award Agreement.
The
Administrator shall make adjustments as necessary to eliminate the effect on the stated performance criteria of unplanned acquisitions
or dispositions, changes in foreign exchange rates, discrete tax items identified by the Administrator, changes in accounting standards
and variances to planned annual incentive compensation expense.
(e)
Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination
granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to
each Grantee within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if any Award
under this Plan is made to a person subject to taxation in the U.S., the date of grant of such Award shall be the date when the Company
completes the corporate action necessary to create the legally binding right constituting the Award.
(f)
Individual Limitations on Awards.
(i)
Individual Limit for Options and SARs. The maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to any
Grantee in any calendar year shall be 400,000 Shares. The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with
any change in the Company’s capitalization pursuant to Section 12 below. To the extent required by Section 162(m) of
the Code or the regulations thereunder, in applying the foregoing limitations with respect to a Grantee, if any Option or SAR is canceled,
the canceled Option or SAR shall continue to count against the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be
granted to the Grantee. For this purpose, the repricing of an Option (or in the case of a SAR, the base appreciation amount on which
the stock appreciation is calculated is reduced to reflect a reduction in the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock) shall be treated
as the cancellation of the existing Option or SAR and the grant of a new Option or SAR.
(ii)
Individual Limit for Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. For awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units that
are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, the maximum number of Shares with respect to which such Awards may be granted to any
Grantee in any calendar year shall be 400,000 Shares. The foregoing limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any
change in the Company’s capitalization pursuant to Section 12 below.
(iii)
Deferral. If the vesting or receipt of Shares under an Award is deferred to a later date, any amount (whether denominated in Shares
or cash) paid in addition to the original number of Shares subject to such Award will not be treated as an increase in the number of
Shares subject to the Award if the additional amount is based either on a reasonable rate of interest or on one or more predetermined
actual investments such that the amount payable by the Company at the later date will be based on the actual rate of return of a specific
investment (including any decrease as well as any increase in the value of an investment).
(g)
Early Exercise. The Award Agreement may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an
Employee, Director or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of the Award. Any unvested Shares received
pursuant to such exercise may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity or to any other restriction
the Administrator determines to be appropriate.
(h)
Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that the term of an
Incentive Stock Option shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option granted to a Grantee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall
be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.
(i)
Transferability of Awards. Incentive Stock Options or Awards to Israeli Grantees may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the
lifetime of the Grantee, only by the Grantee. Other Awards shall be transferable (i) by will and by the laws of descent and distribution
and (ii) during the lifetime of the Grantee, to the extent and in the manner authorized by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Grantee (other than an Israeli Grantee) may designate one or more beneficiaries of the Grantee’s Award in the event of the
Grantee’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the Administrator.
7.
Award Exercise Price, Base Appreciation Amount or Purchase Price, Consideration and Taxes.
(a)
Exercise Price, Base Appreciation Amount or Purchase Price. The exercise price, base appreciation amount or purchase price, if
any and as applicable, for an Award shall be as follows:
(i)
In the case of an Incentive Stock Option
(1)
granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%)
of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, the per Share exercise price shall
be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant or
(2)
granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the preceding clause (i)(1), the per Share exercise price shall be not less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
(ii)
In the case of Options, SARs and any other Award intended to deliver as a benefit appreciation in the value per Share over the value
per Share on the date of grant, the exercise price, base appreciation amount or such similar amount shall be not less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
(iii)
In the case of any other Award, such price as is determined by the Administrator.
(b)
Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise, purchase or
settlement of an Award (including the method of payment) shall be determined by the Administrator. In addition to any other types of
consideration the Administrator may determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Shares issued under the
Plan the following:
(i)
cash;
(ii)
check;
(iii)
surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator may require that
have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said
Award shall be exercised;
(iv)
with respect to Options, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (1) shall provide
written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares and remit
to the Company sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased Shares and any required withholding provided
in Section 7(c) below and (2) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased Shares
directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction;
(v)
with respect to Non-qualified Stock Options, payment through a “net exercise” such that, without the payment of any funds,
the Grantee may exercise the Option and receive the net number of Shares equal to (1) the number of Shares as to which the Option is
being exercised multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fair Market Value per Share (on such date as is determined
by the Administrator) less the exercise price per Share, and the denominator of which is such Fair Market Value per Share (the number
of net Shares to be received shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares) and, at the election of the Grantee, less (3)
such number of Shares as is equal to the withholding obligation (if any) provided in Section 7(c) below; or
(vi)
any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.
The
Administrator may at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard forms of Award Agreement described
in Section 4(b), or by other means, grant Awards that do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment
for the Shares or that otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.
(c)
Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee or other person until such Grantee or other person has made
arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any non-U.S., federal, state or local income and employment tax
withholding obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares. Upon exercise or vesting of an
Award the Company shall withhold or collect from the Grantee an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations, including, but not
limited to, by surrender of the whole number of Shares covered by the Award sufficient to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligations
incident to the exercise or vesting of an Award.
8.

(a)
Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.
(i)
Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the
terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that the standard vesting schedule for Israeli Grantees shall
be as set forth in Section 22.
(ii)
An Award shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company (or its delegee) in accordance
with the terms of the Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award
is exercised has been made, including, to the extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay the purchase
price as provided in Section 7(b).
(b)
No Rights as Stockholder. The holder of an Option shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject
to the Option until such Shares are transferred to the holder (or the Trustee, if applicable) upon the exercise of the Option.
(c)
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.
(i)
Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of the Award or the issuance
and delivery of such Shares or consideration in lieu of Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the
approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of
Shares pursuant to the exercise, vesting or any other provision of an Award is or may be unlawful under Applicable Laws, the vesting
or right to exercise an Award or to otherwise receive Shares pursuant to the terms of an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator
determines that such delivery is lawful and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Shares under federal or state laws
or other Applicable Laws.
(ii)
Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award
to make such representations and warranties that, in the opinion of the Company, are required to ensure that such exercise, or a subsequent
sale or disposition of any Shares obtained upon such exercise, does not contravene any Applicable Law, including inter alia, representations
and warranties at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention
to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable
Laws.
(iii)
Restrictions. Unless otherwise set forth in an Award Agreement, Shares issued to a Grantee or the Trustee, as applicable, shall
be subject to such restrictions as required by the appropriate securities law and in the event that the Company’s Shares shall
be registered for trading in any public market, Grantee’s rights to sell the Shares may be subject to certain limitations (including
a lock-up period) as will be requested by the Company or its underwriters, and the Grantee by executing an Award Agreement unconditionally
agrees and accepts any such limitations and undertakes to further execute any agreement as may be requested by the Company or its underwriters
from time to time.
(d)
No Fractional Shares. Only whole Shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or other Award, and to the extent
that an Option or other Award covers less than one (1) Share, it is non exercisable.
9.
Termination, Death, Disability of Grantee.
(a)
Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service. In the event of termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service
for any reason other than Cause, Disability or death, such Grantee may, but only within three (3) months from the date of such termination
(or such longer or shorter period as specified in the Award Agreement but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such
Award as set forth in the Award Agreement), exercise the portion of the Grantee’s Award that was vested at the date of such termination
or such other portion of the Grantee’s Award as may be determined by the Administrator. To the extent that the Grantee’s
Award was unvested at the date of termination, or if Grantee does not exercise the vested portion of the Grantee’s Award within
the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.
(b)
Termination of Continuous Service for Cause. In the event of termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service for Cause, the
unvested portion of the Grantee’s Award and, to the extent not previously exercised, the vested portion of the Grantee’s
Award, shall terminate.
(c)
Disability of Grantee. In the event of termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of his or her Disability,
such Grantee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the date of such termination (or such longer or shorter period as specified
in the Award Agreement but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement),
exercise the portion of the Grantee’s Award that was vested at the date of such termination or such other portion of the Grantee’s
Award as may be determined by the Administrator. To the extent that the Grantee’s Award was unvested at the date of termination,
or if Grantee does not exercise the vested portion of the Grantee’s Award within the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.
(d)
Death of Grantee. In the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of his or her death, or
in the event of the death of the Grantee during the post-termination exercise periods following the Grantee’s termination of Continuous
Service specified in this Section 9 the Grantee’s estate or a person who acquired the right to exercise the Award by bequest
or inheritance may exercise the portion of the Grantee’s Award that was vested as of the date of termination or such other portion
of the Grantee’s Award as may be determined by the Administrator, within twelve (12) months from the date of death (or such longer
or shorter period as specified in the Award Agreement but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as set forth
in the Award Agreement). To the extent that, at the time of death, the Grantee’s Award was unvested, or if the Grantee’s
estate or a person who acquired the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance does not exercise the vested portion of the
Grantee’s Award within the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.
10.
Restricted Stock.
(a)
General. Restricted Stock Awards may be granted upon such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, including
with no restrictions.
(b)
Purchase Price. No monetary payment (other than payments made for applicable taxes) shall be required as a condition of receiving
Shares pursuant to a grant of Restricted Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee shall furnish consideration in the form of
cash having a value not less than the par value of the Shares subject to an award of Restricted Stock. The Board, in its sole discretion,
shall determine procedures from time to time for payment of such par value by the Grantee or for collection of such amount from the Grantee
by the Company. However, the Company shall have the full authority in its discretion to determine at any time that said par value shall
not be paid and that the Company shall take any action to ensure that it meets any requirement of Applicable Laws regarding issuance
of Shares for consideration that is lower than the par value of such Shares.
(c)
Vesting and Restrictions on Transfer. Shares issued pursuant to any Restricted Stock Award may (but need not) be made subject
to exercise conditions as described herein, as shall be established by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement
evidencing such Award. During any restriction period in which Shares acquired pursuant to an award of Restricted Stock remain subject
to exercise conditions, such Shares may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless otherwise
provided in the Plan or any Award Agreement. Upon request by the Company, each Grantee shall execute any agreement evidencing such transfer
restrictions prior to the receipt of Shares hereunder and the Company may place appropriate legends evidencing any such transfer restrictions
on the relevant share certificates.
(d)
Voting Rights; Dividends and Distributions. Except as provided in this Section 10 and in any Award Agreement, during any
restriction period applicable to Shares subject to an award of Restricted Stock, the Grantee shall have all of the rights of a shareholder
of the Company holding Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares.
However, in the event of a dividend or distribution paid in Shares or other property or any other adjustment made upon a change in the
capital structure of the Company as described in Sections 12 and 13 below, any and all new, substituted or additional securities
or other property (other than normal cash dividends) to which the Grantee is entitled by reason of the Grantee’s award of Restricted
Stock shall be immediately subject to the same exercise conditions as the Shares subject to the award of Restricted Stock with respect
to which such dividends or distributions were paid or adjustments were made.
(e)
Termination of Continuous Service. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, in the event of termination of Continuous Service
of a Grantee for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary (including the Grantee’s death or disability), the Grantee shall
forfeit to the Company any Shares acquired by the Grantee pursuant to an Award of Restricted Stock that remain subject to exercise or
transfer conditions as of the date of such termination.
11.
Restricted Stock Units.
(a)
General. Subject to the sole and absolute discretion and determination of the Administrator, the Administrator may decide to grant
under the Plan Restricted Stock Units. A RSU is a right to receive a Share of the Company, under certain terms and conditions, for a
consideration of no more than the underlying Share’s par value. Upon the lapse of any applicable conditions (for example, a vesting
period) of a RSU, such RSU shall automatically vest into a Share of the Company (subject to adjustments under Sections 12 and 13
herein) and the Grantee shall pay to the Company its par value. The Board, in its sole discretion, shall determine procedures from time
to time for payment of such par value by the Grantee or for collection of such amount from the Grantee by the Company. However, the Company
shall have the full authority in its discretion to determine at any time that said nominal value shall not be paid and that the Company
shall capitalize applicable profits or take any other action to ensure that it meets any requirement of applicable laws regarding issuance
of Shares for consideration that is lower than the nominal value of such Shares.
(b)
Termination of Continuous Service. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, in the event of termination of Continuous
Service of a Grantee, all RSUs theretofore granted to such Grantee that are not vested on the termination date shall terminate immediately
and have no legal effect.
12.
Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of Shares
covered by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no
Awards have yet been granted or that have been returned to the Plan, the exercise price, base appreciation amount or purchase price of
each such outstanding Award, the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to any Grantee in any
calendar year, as well as any other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for
any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination
or reclassification of the Shares or similar transaction affecting the Shares, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued
Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of
the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” In connection with the foregoing
adjustments, the Administrator may, in its discretion, prohibit the exercise of Awards during certain periods of time. Except as the
Administrator determines, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall
affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award. Adjustments
shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be final, conclusive and binding.
13.
Adjustments Upon Change in Control.
(a)
Unless otherwise set forth in the Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control after the effective date of the Plan, the Administrator
or the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide for the (i) termination of an Award upon the consummation of the Change in Control,
but only if such Award has vested and been paid out or the Grantee has been permitted to exercise the Option in full for a period of
not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Change in Control, (ii) acceleration of all or any portion of an Award, (iii) payment of
an amount (in cash or, in the discretion of the Administrator or the Board, in the form of consideration paid to shareholders of the
Company in connection with such Change in Control) in exchange for the cancellation of an Award, which, in the case of Options and SARs,
shall equal the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options or SARs over the aggregate exercise price
or base appreciation amount of such Option or SAR, and/or (iv) issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise
applicable terms of any affected Awards previously granted hereunder in a manner complying with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D),
Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1 or any applicable successor provisions.
(b)
In the event of any adjustment in the number of Shares covered by any Award, any fractional Shares resulting from such adjustment shall
be disregarded and each such Award shall cover only the number of full Shares resulting from such adjustment.
(c)
All adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 shall be made by the Administrator, and its determination as to what adjustments shall
be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive.
14.
Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board and shall continue in effect for
a term of ten (10) years, or June 1, 2032, unless sooner terminated. Subject to Section 19 below, and Applicable Laws, Awards
may be granted under the Plan upon its becoming effective. In the case of Israeli Grantees, 102 Options will be granted only after the
lapse of at least thirty (30) days following the date in which the Plan and the relevant forms will be submitted to the tax authorities.
15.
Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.
(a)
The Board or the Administrator may from time to time amend, suspend or terminate in whole or in part, and if suspended or terminated,
may reinstate, any or all of the provisions of the Plan; provided, however, that no amendment of the Plan shall be made without the approval
of the Company’s stockholders to the extent such approval is required under Section 19 or if such amendment would lessen the
stockholder approval requirements of Section 4(b).
(b)
No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan.
(c)
No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan (except as provided herein) shall adversely affect any rights under Awards
already granted to a Grantee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in
writing or electronic format and signed by the Grantee and the Company.
(d)
To the extent applicable, it is intended that the Plan and all Awards hereunder comply with the requirements of Section 409A of
the Code, and the Plan and all Award Agreements shall be interpreted and applied by the Administrator in a manner consistent with this
intent in order to avoid the imposition of any additional tax under Section 409A of the Code. In the event that any provision of
the Plan or an Award Agreement is determined by the Administrator to not comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A
of the Code, the Administrator shall have the authority to take such actions and to make such changes to the Plan or an Award Agreement
as the Administrator deems necessary to comply with such requirements, provided that no such action shall adversely affect any outstanding
Award without the consent of the affected Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything elsewhere in the Plan or an Award Agreement
to the contrary, if a Grantee is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code at the time of termination
of Continuous Service with respect to an Award, then solely to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any additional tax under
Section 409A of the Code in respect of Awards that are deferred compensation for purposes of such Section 409A, the commencement
of any payments or benefits under the Award shall be deferred until the date that is one day following six (6) months following the Grantee’s
separation from service (or such other period as required to comply with Section 409A).
16.
Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares
as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.
17.
Liability of the Company.
(a)
Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction,
which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall
relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall
not have been obtained.
(b)
Grants Exceeding Allotted Shares. If the Shares covered by an Award exceed, as of the date of grant, the number of Shares that
may be issued under the Plan without additional shareholder approval, such Award shall be void with respect to such excess awarded Shares,
unless shareholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the number of Shares subject to the Plan is timely obtained in accordance
with the Plan.
18.
No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship or Retirement Plans.
(a)
No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to
the Grantee’s Continuous Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the right of the Company or any Related
Entity to terminate the Grantee’s Continuous Service at any time, with or without Cause, and with or without notice. The ability
of the Company or any Related Entity to terminate the employment of a Grantee who is employed at will is in no way affected by its determination
that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has been terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan.
(b)
No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the
Company or a Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits or contributions under any retirement
plan of the Company or a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of any kind or any benefit plan
subsequently instituted under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a “Pension
Plan” or “Welfare Plan” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
19.
Stockholder Approval.
(a)
Incentive Stock Options. Awards of Incentive Stock Options shall only be made under the Plan if the stockholders of the Company
approve the Plan within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained
in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws. The Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options under the Plan prior to
approval by the stockholders, but until such approval is obtained, no such Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable. In the event
that stockholder approval is not obtained within the twelve (12) month period provided above, all Incentive Stock Options previously
granted under the Plan shall be exercisable as Non-qualified Stock Options.
(b)
Amendments. Without approval of the Company’s stockholders there shall be no: (i) increase in the number of shares to be
issued under the Plan, except as permitted in Section 12; (ii) extension of the duration of the Plan; (iii) expansion of the class
of Grantees eligible to participate in the Plan; (iv) expansion in the types of Awards provided under the Plan; or (v) other change in
the Plan that requires stockholder approval under Applicable Law.
20.
Unfunded Obligation. Grantees shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company. Any amounts payable to Grantees
pursuant to the Plan shall be unfunded and unsecured obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Neither the Company nor any Related Entity shall be required to segregate any monies
from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall
retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, that the Company may make to fulfill its payment
obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Grantee account shall not create or constitute
a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Administrator, the Company or any Related Entity and a Grantee, or otherwise create any
vested or beneficial interest in any Grantee or the Grantee’s creditors in any assets of the Company or a Related Entity. The Grantees
shall have no claim against the Company or any Related Entity for any changes in the value of any assets that may be invested or reinvested
by the Company with respect to the Plan.
21.
Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation
of any provision of the Plan. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall
include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
22.
Israeli Grantees. This Section shall apply only to Israeli Grantees and is intended to enable the Company to grant Awards under
the Plan pursuant and subject to Section 102 and Section 3(i) of the Tax Ordinance. Accordingly, the Plan is designated to
comply with the Tax Ordinance and the rules, regulations and orders or procedures promulgated thereunder from time to time, as amended
or replaced from time to time, and shall be submitted to the ITA as required thereunder.
In
any case of contradiction, whether explicit or implied, between the provisions of this Section 22 and the Plan, the provisions set
out in this Section 22 shall prevail unless the Administrator decides otherwise to ensure compliance with the Tax Ordinance and
other Applicable Laws.
(a)
Eligibility. 102 Options may be granted only to Israeli Employees. Non-Employees may only be granted 3(i) Options. The grant of
an Award hereunder shall neither entitle the Grantee to participate nor disqualify the Israeli Grantee from participating in any other
grant of Awards pursuant to the Plan or any other option or stock plan of the Company or any Related Company.
(b)
Grant of Awards in Trust.
(i)
Grants Made Under Section 102.
(1)
The Company may designate 102 Options as Trustee 102 Options or Non-Trustee 102 Options. The designation of Non-Trustee 102 Options and
Trustee 102 Options shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance and the regulations
promulgated thereunder.
(ii)
Grant of Trustee 102 Options.
(1)
The grant of the Trustee 102 Options shall be made under the Plan and shall be conditional upon the approval of the Plan by the ITA.
Trustee 102 Options may be granted at any time after the passage of thirty (30) days following the delivery by the Company to the ITA
of a notice pertaining to the appointment of the Trustee and the adoption of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the ITA. 102 Options,
which shall be granted pursuant to Section 102, and/or any Shares issued upon exercise or vesting of such Awards, as the case may
be, and/or other Shares received subsequently following any realization of rights, shall be issued to the Trustee. Each Israeli Grantee
in respect of whom a Trustee 102 Option is granted and held in trust by the Trustee shall be referred to as a “beneficial optionee”
hereunder.
(2)
Trustee 102 Options may either be classified as Capital Gain Options or Ordinary Income Options:
a.
Trustee 102 Options elected and designated by the Company to qualify under the capital gain tax treatment in accordance with the provisions
of Section 102(b)(2) shall be referred to herein as “Capital Gain Options” or “CGO.”
b.
Trustee 102 Options elected and designated by the Company to qualify under the ordinary income tax treatment in accordance with the provisions
of Section 102(b)(l) shall be referred to herein as “Ordinary Income Options” or “OIO.”
(3)
The Company’s election of the type of Trustee 102 Options as CGO or OIO granted to Employees (the “Election”) shall
be appropriately filed with the ITA thirty (30) days before the date of grant of a Trustee 102 Option, unless otherwise determined by
the ITA. Such Election shall become effective beginning the first date of grant of a Trustee 102 Option under this Plan and shall remain
in effect until the end of the year following the year during which the Company first granted Trustee 102 Options. The Election shall
obligate the Company to grant only the type of Trustee 102 Option it has elected, and shall apply to all Israeli Grantees who were granted
Trustee 102 Options during the period indicated herein or therein, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102(g) of the
Tax Ordinance. Notwithstanding, such Election shall not prevent the Company from granting Non-Trustee 102 Options simultaneously.
(4)
All Trustee 102 Options must be held in trust by and issued on the name of the Trustee, as described below.
(5)
With respect to Trustee 102 Options, the provisions of the Plan and/or an Award Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of Section 102
and the ITA’s permit, and the said provisions and permit shall be deemed an integral part of this Section 22 and of the Award
Agreement for the respective Grantees thereof. Any provision of Section 102 and/or the said permit that is necessary in order to
receive and/or to keep any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102, which is not expressly specified in the Plan or the Award Agreement,
shall be considered binding upon the Company and the Israeli Grantee.
(iii)
Issuance to Trustee.
(1)
All Trustee 102 Options granted under the Plan and/or any Shares allocated or issued upon exercise or vesting of such Trustee 102 Options,
as the case may be, and/or other and all rights deriving from or in connection therewith, including, without limitation, in accordance
with Section 12 above or any bonus Shares or stock dividends issued in connection therewith shall be granted by the Company to the
Trustee, and the Trustee shall hold each such Trustee 102 Option and the Shares issued upon exercise or vesting thereof, as the case
may be, in trust for such period of time as required by Section 102 or any regulations, rules or orders or procedures promulgated
thereunder (the “Holding Period”) for the benefit of the Grantees in respect of whom such Trustee 102 Option was granted.
If applicable, all certificates representing Shares issued to the Trustee under the Plan shall be deposited with the Trustee, and shall
be held by the Trustee until such time that such Shares are released from the Trust as herein provided.
(2)
In the event the requirements for Trustee 102 Options are not met for any reason whatsoever, then the Trustee 102 Options may be treated
as Non-Trustee 102 Options, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and regulations promulgated thereunder.
(3)
With respect to any Trustee 102 Option, subject to the provisions of Section 102 and any rules or regulations or orders or procedures
promulgated thereunder, an Israeli Grantee shall not be entitled to sell or release from Trust the Trustee 102 Option, the Shares received
upon the exercise or vesting of such Option, as the case may be, and/or any right deriving from or in connection therewith, including,
without limitation, in accordance with Section 13 above or any bonus Shares or stock dividends issued in connection therewith, until
the later of: (i) the lapse of the Holding Period required under Section 102 and (ii) the vesting of such 102 Options set forth
in the respective Award Agreement (such later date being hereinafter referred to as the “Release Date”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if such sale or release occurs during the Holding period, the provisions of Section 102 and the rules or regulations
promulgated thereunder shall apply and any expenses and/or tax consequences therefrom shall be borne by the Israeli Grantee.
(4)
Subject to the terms hereof, at any time after the Release Date with respect to any Trustee 102 Options or Shares the following shall
apply:
a.
Trustee 102 Options granted, and/or Shares or rights issued to the Trustee shall continue to be held by the Trustee, on behalf of the
beneficial optionee. From and after the Release Date, upon the written request of any beneficial optionee, the Trustee shall release
from the Trust the Trustee 102 Options granted, and/or the Shares or rights issued, on behalf of such beneficial optionee, by executing
and delivering to the Company such instrument(s) as the Company may require, giving due notice of such release to such beneficial optionee;
provided, however, that the Trustee shall not so release any such Trustee 102 Options and/or Shares and/or rights to such beneficial
optionee unless the latter, prior to or concurrently with such release, provides the Trustee with evidence, satisfactory in form and
substance to the Trustee, that all taxes, if any, required to be paid upon such release have, in fact, been paid.
b.
Alternatively, from and after the Release Date, upon the written instructions of the beneficial optionee to sell any Shares and rights
issued upon exercise of Trustee 102 Options, the Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts to effect such
sale and shall transfer such Shares to the purchaser thereof concurrently with the receipt, or after having made suitable arrangements
to secure the payment, of the purchase price in such transactions. The Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, shall withhold from
such proceeds any and all taxes required to be paid in respect of such sale, shall remit the amount so withheld to the appropriate tax
authorities and shall pay the balance thereof directly to the beneficial optionee, reporting to such beneficial optionee and to the Company
the amount so withheld and paid to said authorities.
c.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the underwriters of securities of the Company impose restrictions on the transferability
of the Shares during a lock-up period, the beneficial optionee shall not be entitled to release from Trust the Trustee 102 Options granted
and/or the Shares issued and/or to instruct the Trustee to effect a sale of same, for as long as the restrictions are in effect. In the
event the Trustee 102 Options granted and/or the Shares issued have been released from trust the restrictions imposed on the transferability
of same shall nevertheless apply to said optionee’s Trustee 102 Options held by the Grantee and/or Shares in the same manner. Consequently,
the Israeli Grantee shall sign any documents required in order to effect the restrictions, for as long as the restrictions are in effect.
d.
Upon receipt of the Award, the Israeli Grantee will sign an undertaking to release the Trustee from any liability in respect of any action
or decision duly taken and bona fide executed in relation with the Plan, or any Award or Share or rights granted to same thereunder.
The Trustee may establish additional terms and conditions in connection with Awards held in trust by the Trustee.
(iv)
Grant of Non-Trustee 102 Options.
(1)
Awards granted pursuant to this subsection are intended to constitute Non-Trustee 102 Options and shall be subject to the general terms
and conditions of the Plan and this Section 22, except for provisions of the Plan applying to Trustee 102 Option or Awards under
a different tax law or regulation.
(2)
With respect to Non-Trustee 102 Options, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by or of service to the Company or a Related Company, the
Grantee shall be required to extend to the Company a security or guarantee for the payment of tax due at the time of sale of Shares or
other rights, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the rules, regulation or orders promulgated thereunder.
(v)
Grants Made Under Section 3(i). Awards granted pursuant to this subsection are intended to constitute 3(i) Options and shall
be subject to the general terms and conditions of the Plan and Section 22 thereof, except for said provisions of the Plan applying
to Awards under a different tax law or regulation. The Administrator may choose to deposit the 3(i) Options granted pursuant to Section 3(i)
of the Tax Ordinance with a trustee. In such event, said trustee shall hold such 3(i) Options in trust, until exercised by the Grantee,
pursuant to the Company’s instructions from time to time. If determined by the Administrator, the trustee shall be responsible
for withholding any taxes to which a Grantee become liable upon the exercise of such 3(i) Options.
(c)
Award Agreement. Without derogating from the powers of the Administrator under the Plan, the Administrator shall adopt the form
of Award Agreement for Israeli Grantees in form acceptable by the ITA and in compliance with the Tax Ordinance. The Award Agreement shall
further indicate the type of Award (102, 3(i), Trustee, Non-Trustee etc.) granted thereunder.
(d)
Vesting. Without derogating from the terms of any Award Agreement or the discretionary authority of the Administrator, the standard
vesting for Awards to Israeli Grantees shall be as follows:
(i)
Twenty five percent (25%) of the Awards granted under each Award Agreement shall vest on the end of the first year of Continuous Service
following the vesting commencement date determined by the Administrator and if not specified the date of the grant of an Option (the
“First Anniversary”); and
(ii)
The remaining seventy five percent (75%) of the Awards shall vest on a quarterly basis over a period of three (3) years commencing as
of the First Anniversary in twelve (12) equal portions subject to Continuous Service of the Grantee.
(e)
With respect to all Shares (in contrast to unexercised Options) allocated or issued upon the exercise of Awards by the Israeli Grantee,
the Grantee or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive dividends in accordance with the quantity of such Shares,
subject however to any applicable taxation on distribution of dividends.
(f)
Without derogating from anything in the Plan, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, any tax consequences attributable to the Israeli
Grantee arising from the grant, vesting or exercise of any Award, from the payment for Shares covered thereby or from any other event
