Board Recommendation

 

Our board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) recommends that you vote in favor of the proposed resolutions, which are described in the attached proxy statement.

 

Record Date

 

Shareholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2022 (the “Record Date”), are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting, either in person or by appointing a proxy to vote in their stead at the Meeting (as detailed below).

  

Required Vote and Voting Procedures

 

Pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, 5799-1999 (the “Companies Law”), each of Proposals No. 1, 2 ,3 and 4 described hereinafter, requires the affirmative vote of shareholders present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, and holding ordinary shares, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”) of the Company amounting in the aggregate to at least a majority of the votes actually cast by shareholders with respect to such proposal (a “Simple Majority”).

 

How You Can Vote

 

A form of proxy for use at the Meeting is attached to the proxy statement, together with a return envelope, will be sent to holders of the Company’s Ordinary Shares. By appointing “proxies,” shareholders may vote at the Meeting whether or not they attend. If a properly executed proxy in the attached form is received by the Company at least 4 hours prior to the Meeting, all of the Ordinary Shares represented by the proxy shall be voted as indicated on the form. Subject to applicable law and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, in the absence of instructions, the Ordinary Shares represented by properly executed and received proxies will be voted “FOR” all of the proposed resolutions to be presented at the Meeting for which the Board of Directors recommends a “FOR”.

 

 

 

 

Shareholders may revoke their proxies or voting instruction form (as applicable) in accordance with Section 9 of the Companies Law (proxy and position statements), by filing with the Company a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable) bearing a later date.

 

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”), you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. In such case, these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to use the proxy card included with this Proxy Statement to grant your voting proxy directly to Yafit Tehila, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and Joe Hayon, President and director of the Company, or to vote in person at the Meeting.

 

If your shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, they are considered to be held in “street name” and you are the beneficial owner with respect to those shares. A beneficial owner as of the Record Date has the right to direct the bank, broker or nominee how to vote shares held by such beneficial owner at the Meeting, and must also provide the Company with a copy of their identity card, passport or certification of incorporation, as the case may be. If your shares were held in “street name,” as of the Record Date, these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your bank, broker or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, as the shareholder of record, together with a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the bank, broker or nominee how to vote your shares. You also may attend the Meeting. Because a beneficial owner is not a shareholder of record, you may not vote those shares directly at the Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares directly, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Meeting. Absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares, brokers are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion, among other things, with respect to the election of directors or any matter that relates to executive compensation; and therefore, a “broker non-vote” occurs with respect to such uninstructed shares. Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds ordinary shares through a bank or broker to instruct its bank or broker how to vote its shares, if the shareholder wants its shares to count for all proposals.

 

  Sincerely,
   
  Benad Goldwasser
  Chairman of the Board of Directors
   
  September 8, 2022

TO CHANGE THE COMPANY NAME AND TO AMEND THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION ACCORDINGLY

 

In accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law, changing the name of a company requires an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Association, and therefore, is subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders.

Under the Companies Law, arrangements concerning compensation for Company’s Director in accordance with the terms of the Company’s compensation policy, as approved by the Company’s shareholders on December 17, 2021 (the “Compensation Policy”), require the approval by the compensation committee, the Board of Directors and Company’s shareholders (by a Simple Majority, as defined above), in that order.

 

Mr. Parnes has served as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors since July 16, 2021. Mr. Parnes has long term expertise in developing and manufacturing agreements, and therefore, on September 5, 2022 and September 6, 2022, the compensation committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”), and the Board of Directors, respectively, approved an amendment to Mr. Parnes’ compensation for a limited period of time, in order for him to assist the Company with supervising and reviewing original equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements in which the Company wishes to engage, all as part of his director duties (“Updated Compensation Period”).

 

During the Updated Compensation Period, Mr. Parnes will not serve as a member of the Company’s audit committee of the Board of Directors and will be replaced on the audit committee by Prof. Benad Goldwasser (see above regarding Prof. Benad Goldwasser independence).

 

Taking into account numerous factors, including the provisions of the existing Company Compensation Policy and other relevant information and materials presented to them, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors voted to recommend that the shareholders approve an amendment to Mr. Parnes’ board compensation such that during the Updated Compensation Period, he will be entitled to an hourly rate of NIS 500 (approx. US$147) for supervising and reviewing original equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements, up to a maximum of fifty (50) hours in total.

 

For clarification purposes, Mr. Parnes’ board compensation in the 2022 fiscal year will not exceed the maximum annual compensation for directors as permitted in the Company’s Compensation Policy (i.e. US$50,000).

 

The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:

 

“RESOLVED, to approve an amendment to the terms of compensation of Mr. Tal Parnes, a member of the Board of Directors, during the Updated Compensation Period as specified above.”

 

The approval of this proposal, as described above, requires the affirmative vote of a Simple Majority (as defined in this proxy statement).
