INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT
On September 26, 2023, Senstar Technologies Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Senstar- Israel”), Senstar Technologies Corporation, a newly established Ontario corporation (“Senstar-Ontario”) and Can Co Sub Ltd., a company organized under the laws
of the State of Israel and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Senstar-Ontario (“Merger Sub”) entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger
Agreement”), pursuant to which Senstar-Ontario would become the parent company of Senstar-Israel as a result of a merger of Merger Sub with and into Senstar-Israel, with Senstar-Israel surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Senstar-Ontario (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Senstar-Israel agreed to become domiciled in Ontario and become Senstar- Ontario, an Ontario organized company (the “Redomiciliation”).
The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by all the members of Senstar-Israel’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Board called a Special General Meeting of shareholders that was held on December 27, 2023 at 3:00 p.m. Israel time at Senstar-Israel’s principal executive offices located at 10th Floor, Gibor Sport Tower, 7 Menachem
Begin Road, Ramat Gan 5268102, Israel. Shareholders of record as of November 27, 2023 voted upon and approved, among other things, the Redomiciliation.
Reference to the “Company” for purposes of this report shall mean Senstar-Israel prior to the effectiveness of the Redomiciliation and Senstar-Ontario after the effectiveness of the
Redomiciliation.
In connection with the Redomiciliation, Senstar-Ontario filed a registration statement on Form F-4 (333-274706) that was declared effective by the SEC on
November 16, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”). The final proxy statement and prospectus, together with other proxy materials containing important information about the Special General
Meeting (“Final Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) were filed with the SEC on November 21, 2023 and mailed to shareholders of record on or about November 28, 2023.
Effective March 18, 2024 (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub was merged with and into
Senstar-Israel. As a result of the Merger, (a) the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and Senstar-Israel continues as the surviving company; (b) all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Senstar-Israel and
Merger Sub vested in Senstar-Israel (as the surviving company); (c) all debts, liabilities and duties of Senstar-Israel and Merger Sub became the debts, liabilities and duties of Senstar-Israel (as the surviving company); and (d) all the rights,
privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of Senstar-Israel continue unaffected by the Merger in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999.
Each Senstar-Israel ordinary share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger represented the right to receive, less any
applicable withholding taxes, one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common share of Senstar-Ontario, representing the same proportional equity interest in Senstar-Ontario as that shareholder held in Senstar-Israel. The number of
common shares of Senstar-Ontario outstanding immediately after the Redomiciliation continue to be the same as the number of ordinary shares of Senstar-Israel outstanding immediately prior to the Redomiciliation. Upon effectiveness of the
Redomiciliation, the name of the Company became Senstar-Ontario. The rights of shareholders of Senstar-Ontario are governed under Ontario law and the Senstar-Ontario’s Articles and By-Laws, each of which is described in the Registration Statement.
Information relating to the common shares of Senstar-Ontario is described under the captions “Description of Senstar-Ontario Share Capital” in the Registration Statement and Final Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
Until the Effective Time, Senstar-Israel’s ordinary shares were registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), and listed on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SNT”. Beginning on March 19,
2024, the common shares of Senstar-Ontario (as the successor to Senstar-Israel), will continue to be listed for trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “SNT”. The common shares of Senstar-Ontario have been assigned a new CUSIP number - 81728N100.
This Current Report on Form 6-K is being filed for the purpose of establishing the Senstar Technologies Corporation as the successor issuer to
Senstar-Israel pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act, and to disclose certain events with respect to Senstar Ontario in connection with the consummation of the Redomiciliation. Pursuant to Section 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act,
Senstar-Ontario common shares are deemed registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act as the common shares of the successor issuer and Senstar-Ontario is subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. Senstar-Ontario hereby reports this succession in accordance with Rule 12g-3(f) under the Exchange Act.
