This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus dated March 16, 2022 (the “Prospectus”), which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-261399). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the Prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 20, 2022 (the “Current Report”). Accordingly, we have attached the Current Report to this prospectus supplement.

The ordinary shares being offered by the selling shareholder may be issued pursuant to the purchase agreement dated November 15, 2021 that we entered into with Lincoln Park. See “The Lincoln Park Transaction” in the Prospectus for a description of that agreement and “Selling Shareholder” in the Prospectus for additional information regarding Lincoln Park. The prices at which Lincoln Park may sell the shares will be determined by the prevailing market price for the shares or in negotiated transactions.
We are not selling any securities under the Prospectus or this prospectus supplement and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholder.
The selling shareholder may sell the ordinary shares described in the Prospectus and this prospectus supplement in a number of different ways and at varying prices. See “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus for more information about how the selling shareholder may sell the ordinary shares being registered pursuant to the Prospectus or this prospectus supplement. The selling shareholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Our Ordinary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “RKLY.” On October 19, 2022, the closing price of our Ordinary Shares was $0.69 per share. We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as those terms are defined under the federal securities laws and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company disclosure and reporting requirements.
