SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JANUARY 19, 2005


EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Form F-3/A is filed for the purpose of making limited changes to the company’s Form F-3 dated December 22, 2005. These changes are limited to changes in Item 10. Undertakings and to the opinion attached as Exhibit 5 hereof.

 

Item 10. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

 

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(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.

 

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the Plan of Distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any other material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(d) The undersigned Registrant undertakes that, 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.

Jerusalem 91450, Israel

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as Israeli counsel to ViryaNet Ltd., an Israeli company (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement of the Company on Form F-3 dated as of December 22, 2005, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Registration Statement”) covering 4,067,305 Ordinary Shares of the Company, NIS 1.0 par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”).

 

In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction), of such corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments (including but not limited to the agreements (the “Agreements”), the convertible notes (the “Notes”) and the warrants (the “Warrants”) detailed in the “Selling Shareholders” paragraph in Registration Statement) and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth.

 

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of documents submitted to us as certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion that have not been independently established, we have relied solely upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Company. In making our examination of documents executed by parties other than the Company, we have assumed that such parties had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and due execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof.

 

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that (i) the 4,067,305 Ordinary Shares issued under the Agreements, the Notes and the Warrants have been duly authorized for issuance and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) the Ordinary Shares that may be issued in connection with the exercise and conversion of the Notes and the Warrants have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in full in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

 

  1. This opinion is based on the facts existing on the date hereof and of which we are aware without making any special investigation.

 

  2. Members of our firm are admitted to the Bar in the State of Israel, and we do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

  3. We render no opinion in relation to any representation made or given in the Registration Statement.

 

This opinion is furnished to you solely in connection with the Registration Statement and is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose without our express prior written permission.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 5 to the Registration Statement.

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Meitar Liquornik Geva & Leshem Brandwein
