This Annual Report on Form 20-F also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

**Summary Risk Factors**

***Risks Related to Our Business, Industry, Operations and Financial Condition***

 ****

● the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and will continue to affect, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations;

● we are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine;

● we have been operating at a loss since our inception and may never be profitable;

● amounts included in backlog may not result in actual revenue and are an uncertain indicator of our future earnings;

● we may not have sufficient manufacturing capabilities to satisfy any growing demand for our commissioned products. We may be unable to control the availability or cost of producing such products;

● we operate in an evolving industry and, as a result, our past results may not be indicative of future operating performance;

● our commercial success depends upon the degree of market acceptance by the professional, homeland security, or HLS, and defense markets as well as by other prospective markets and industries;

● we may not be able to introduce products acceptable to customers and we may not be able to improve the technology used in our current systems in response to changing technology and end-user needs;

● potential growth of our business is based on international expansion, making us susceptible to risks associated with international sales and operations;

● we expect to face significant competition. If we cannot successfully compete with new or existing technologies or future developed products, our marketing and sales will suffer and we may never be profitable;

● significant merchandise returns and recalls of our ready-made products could harm our business;

● if we fail to offer high-quality customer support, our business and reputation may suffer;

● our reliance on third-party suppliers for most of the component parts of our products could harm our ability to meet demand for our products in a timely and cost-effective manner;

● if we are unable to establish significant sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into successful relationships with business targets and third parties to perform these services, we may not be successful in commercializing our products and technology;

● we may require substantial additional funding to grow our business, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all;

● we may not accurately forecast revenues, profitability and appropriately plan our expenses;

● we rely on highly skilled personnel, and, if we are unable to attract, retain or motivate qualified personnel, we may not be able to operate our business effectively;

● we may have difficulty in entering into and maintaining strategic alliances with third parties;

● we may not be able to obtain patents or other intellectual property rights necessary to protect our proprietary technology and business;

● we may be unable to keep pace with changes in technology as our business and market strategy evolves;

● significant disruptions of our information technology systems or breaches of our data security could adversely affect our business;

● we may be subject to general litigation, regulatory disputes and government inquiries;

● we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, shareholders could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our ordinary shares;

● new regulation as well as regulation in new target territories, including regulation relating to unmanned platforms, video and audio systems, may create obstacles to our sales and marketing efforts;

***Risks Related to Israeli Law and our Operations in Israel***

 ****

● political, economic and military instability in Israel may impede our ability to operate and harm our financial results;

● exchange rate fluctuations between foreign currencies and the U.S. Dollar may negatively affect our earnings;

● we may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation and adversely affect our business;

● we received Israeli government grants for certain of our research and development activities, the terms of which may require us to pay royalties and to satisfy specified conditions in order to manufacture products and transfer technologies outside of Israel. If we fail to satisfy these conditions, we may be required to pay penalties and refund grants previously received;

***Risks Related to Our Status as a Public Company and Ownership of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants***

 ****

● As of December 31, 2022, our principal shareholders, officers and directors beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 40.87% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares. They will therefore be able to exert significant control over matters submitted to our shareholders for approval;

● We cannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares and Warrants will remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or any other securities exchange;

● we are an emerging growth company and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our securities less attractive to investors;

● we incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company. Our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives as well as compliance with ongoing U.S. requirements;

● the estimates of market opportunity, market size and forecasts of market growth included in our publicly-filed documents may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rate, if at all;

● the market price of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants may be highly volatile and such volatility could cause you to lose some or all of your investment and also subject us to litigation; and

● your ownership in the Company may be diluted in the future.

**Risks Related to Our Business, Industry, Operations and Financial Condition**

 ****

***The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and will continue to affect, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.***

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide, placed constraints on the operations of businesses, decreased consumer mobility and activity, and caused significant economic volatility globally. We have followed guidance issued by the U.S. and Israeli governments and the other local governments in territories in which we operate to protect our employees. Our financial condition and results of operations were not materially negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the year ended December 31, 2022.

In addition, and most importantly, the electronics components shortage crisis, a unique result of the COVID-19 pandemic which affected our market segment, has increased the lead time to obtain and the purchase prices of the component parts required for certain of our products, which has also negatively impacted the delivery time of our products to customers and our revenues and profitability. As long as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the components' lead time may be longer than normal and shortage in components may continue or get worse. The Company maintains a comprehensive network of world-wide suppliers. In order to mitigate such risks, in cases where certain components are purchased from single source manufacturers, the Company has adjusted and modified it designs based on different components from different suppliers, to allow for more versatility and flexibility.

We cannot predict the other future potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business or operations, and there is no guarantee that any near-term trends in our results of operations will continue, particularly if the COVID-19 pandemic and the adverse consequences thereof return. Additional waves of infections, a continuation of the current environment, or any further adverse impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic could further impact employment rates and the economy, affecting our consumer base and divert consumers' discretionary income to other uses, including for essential items. These events could impact our cash flows, results of operations and financial conditions and heighten many of the other risks described in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

***We are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability due to the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by any negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the conflict in Ukraine or any other geopolitical tensions.***

U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the start of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. On February 24, 2022, a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops was reported. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict is highly unpredictable, the conflict in Ukraine could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in credit and capital markets.

Additionally, Russia's prior annexation of Crimea, recent recognition of two separatist republics in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine and subsequent military interventions in Ukraine have led to sanctions and other penalties being levied by the United States, European Union and other countries against Russia, Belarus, the Crimea Region of Ukraine, the so-called Donetsk People's Republic, and the so-called Luhansk People's Republic, including agreement to remove certain Russian financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Additional potential sanctions and penalties have also been proposed and/or threatened. Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets.

Any of the abovementioned factors could affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial. Any such disruptions may also magnify the impact of other risks described in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

***We have been operating at a loss since our inception and may never be profitable.***

We have been operating at a loss since our inception. In the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 we had a net loss of $3,688,346, $824,224 and $640,343, respectively.

We anticipate that our operating expenses will continue to increase as we expand our operations and continue to invest in developing our product pipeline. These expenses may exceed our budgeted amounts and our revenues may not increase sufficiently to turn an operating profit and become cash flow positive. If any of the foregoing occur, we may continue to incur losses and remain unprofitable.

***Amounts included in backlog may not result in actual revenue and are an uncertain indicator of our future earnings.***

As of January 1, 2023, our backlog was approximately $1.9 million. As of March 6, 2023, our backlog was approximately $2.6 million. We define backlog as the accumulation of all pending orders with a later fulfillment date for which revenue has not been recognized and we consider valid. Most of our backlog is comprised of executed purchase orders from high rated leading customers in the defense industries, also referred to as "triple A customers", customers with which we have had long-standing relationships and governmental agencies. The disclosure of backlog aids in the analysis of the demand for the Company's products, as well as the Company's ability to meet that demand. However, because revenue will not be recognized until we have fulfilled our obligations to a customer, there may be a significant amount of time between executing a contract with a customer and delivery of the product to the customer and revenue recognition. In addition, backlog is not necessarily indicative of our revenues to be recognized in a specified future period and we cannot assure that we will recognize revenue with respect to each order included in backlog. Our customers may order products from multiple sources to ensure timely delivery and may cancel or defer orders without significant penalty. Our customers also may cancel orders when business is weaker and inventories are excessive. While as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 20-F, no orders were cancelled, should a cancellation occur, our backlog and anticipated revenue would be reduced unless we were able to replace the cancelled order. As a result, we cannot provide assurances as to the portion of backlog to be filled in a given year, and our backlog as of any particular date may not be representative of actual revenues for any subsequent period.

***We may not have sufficient manufacturing capabilities to satisfy any growing demand for our commissioned products. We may be unable to control the availability or cost of producing such products.***

 ****

Our current manufacturing capabilities may not reach the required production levels necessary in order to meet growing demands for any products we may commission or future products we may develop. There can be no assurance that our commissioned products can be manufactured at our desired commercial quantities, in compliance with our requirements and at an acceptable cost. Any such failure could delay or prevent us from shipping said products and marketing our technologies in accordance with our target growth strategies.

 ****

***We operate in an evolving industry and, as a result, our past results may not be indicative of future operating performance.***

We operate in a rapidly evolving industry that may not develop in a manner favorable to our business. Therefore, it may be difficult to assess our future performance. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we may encounter.

Our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to, *inter alia*:

● manage our inventory effectively;

● successfully develop, retain and expand our consumer product offering and geographic reach;

● compete effectively;

● anticipate and respond to macroeconomic changes;

● effectively manage our growth;

● hire, integrate and retain talented people at all levels of our organization;

● avoid interruptions in our business from information technology downtime, cybersecurity breaches or labor stoppages;

● maintain the quality of our technology infrastructure; and

● develop new features to enhance functionality.

***Our commercial success depends upon the degree of market acceptance by the professional, HLS and defense markets as well as by other prospective markets and industries.***

We provide intelligent video transmission and AI technologies for professional, HLS and defense applications. Our current business model is that of a B2B in which we seek to identify target businesses interested in integrating our technology, or commissioning individual projects using our technology. Any product that we commission or that is brought to the market may or may not gain market acceptance by prospective customers. The commercial success of our technologies, commissioned products and any future product that we may develop depends in part on the professional, HLS and defense community as well as other industries for various use cases, depending on the acceptance by such industries of our commissioned products as a useful and cost-effective solution compared to current technologies. Even though our B2B products are custom made, step by step with our customers in order to ensure compatibility and acceptance, if our technology or any future product that we may develop does not achieve an adequate level of acceptance, or does not garner significant commercial appeal, we may not generate significant revenue and may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance will depend on a number of factors, including:

● the cost, size, weight, efficacy, performance, and convenience of our technology in relation to alternative products;

● the ability of third parties to enter into relationships with us without violating their existing agreements;

● the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts;

● the strength of marketing and distribution support for competing technology and products; and

● publicity concerning our technology or commissioned products or competing technology and products.

Our efforts to penetrate industries and educate the marketplace on the benefits of our technology, and reasons to seek the commissioning of products based on our technology, may require significant resources and may never be successful. Such efforts to educate the marketplace may require more resources than are required by conventional technologies.

 ****

***We may not be able to introduce products acceptable to customers and we may not be able to improve the technology used in our current systems in response to changing technology and end-user needs.***

The markets in which we operate are subject to rapid and substantial innovation and technological change, mainly driven by technological advances and end-user requirements and preferences, as well as the emergence of new standards and practices. Even if we are able to complete the development of our products in development, our ability to compete in the unmanned platform markets will depend, in large part, on our future success in enhancing our existing products and developing new systems that will address the varied needs of prospective end-users, and respond to technological advances and industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis to otherwise gain market acceptance.

Even if we successfully introduce our existing products in development, it is likely that new systems and technologies that we develop will eventually supplant our existing systems or that our competitors will create systems that will replace our systems. As a result, any of our products may be rendered obsolete or uneconomical by our or others' technological advances.

***Potential growth of our business is based on international expansion, making us susceptible to risks associated with international sales and operations.***

Having consolidated our position in the local Israeli market, we have plans to expand internationally with broad range of the field-tested video and data analytics products. Conducting international operations subjects us to certain risks which include localization of solutions and products and adapting them to local practices and regulatory requirements, exchange rate fluctuations and unexpected changes in tax, trade laws, tariffs, governmental controls and other trade restrictions. To the extent that we do not succeed in expanding our operations internationally and managing the associated legal and operational risks, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

***We expect to face significant competition. If we cannot successfully compete with new or existing technologies or future developed products, our marketing and sales will suffer and we may never be profitable.***

***Significant merchandise returns and recalls of our ready-made products could harm our business.***

 **

Disruptions affecting the introduction, release or performance of our ready-made products may damage customers' businesses and could harm their and our reputation. We may be subject to warranty and liability claims for damages related to defects in those products. In addition, if we do not meet industry or quality standards, if applicable, then the products may be subject to a recall, a material liability claim, or other occurrence that harms our reputation or decreases market acceptance of our products and could adversely impact our operating results.

***If we fail to offer high-quality customer support, our business and reputation may suffer.***

 ****

High-quality customer support is important for the successful retention of existing customers. Providing this support requires that our support personnel have specific knowledge and expertise of our products and markets, making it more difficult for us to hire qualified personnel and to scale up our support operations. The importance of high-quality customer support will increase as we expand our business and pursue new customers. If we do not provide effective and timely ongoing support, our ability to retain existing customers may suffer, and our reputation with existing or potential customers may be harmed, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

***Our reliance on third-party suppliers for most of the component parts of our products could harm our ability to meet demand for our products in a timely and cost-effective manner.***

 ****

Though we attempt to ensure the availability of more than one supplier for each important component in any product that we commission, the number of suppliers engaged in the provision of the specified components suitable for our miniature intelligent video surveillance and communication technology products is limited, and therefore in some cases we engage with a single supplier, which may result in our dependency on such supplier. As such, we may be subject to disruptions in our operations if our sole or limited supply contract manufacturers decrease or stop production of components or do not produce components and products of sufficient quantity. Alternative sources for our component parts may not always be available. Many of our component parts are manufactured overseas, so they have long lead times, and events such as local disruptions, natural disasters or political conflict may cause unexpected interruptions to the supply of our products or components. As such, the loss of one or more of our specified suppliers, and our inability or delay in finding suitable replacement suppliers, could significantly affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation.

***If we are unable to establish significant sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into successful relationships with business targets and third parties to perform these services, we may not be successful in commercializing our products and technology.***

 ****

Given that we are currently a B2B company, our business is reliant on our ability to successfully attract potential business targets. Furthermore, we have a limited sales and marketing infrastructure and have limited experience in the sale, marketing or distribution of our technologies beyond the B2B model. To achieve commercial success for our technologies or any future developed product, we will need to expand our current sales and marketing infrastructure. There are risks involved with establishing and expanding our own sales, marketing and distribution capabilities. For example, recruiting and training additional sales force could be expensive and time consuming and could delay any product launch. In addition, our investment would be lost if we cannot retain or reposition our sales and marketing personnel.

Factors that may inhibit our efforts to commercialize any future products on our own include:

● our inability to recruit, train and retain adequate numbers of effective sales and marketing personnel;

● the inability of sales personnel to obtain access to potential customers;

● the lack of complementary products to be offered by sales personnel, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage; and

● unforeseen costs and expenses associated with creating an independent sales and marketing organization.

If we are unable to establish additional sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into successful arrangements with third parties to perform these services, our revenues and our profitability may be materially adversely affected.

In addition, we may not be successful in entering into arrangements with third parties to sell, market and distribute our products inside or outside of Israel or may be unable to do so on terms that are favorable to us. We likely will have little control over such third parties, and any of them may fail to devote the necessary resources and attention to sell and market our products effectively. If we do not establish sales, marketing and distribution capabilities successfully, either on our own or in collaboration with third parties, we will not be successful in commercializing our technologies or any future products we may develop.

***Changes in our insurance coverage may adversely affect our business, financial condition and operational results*.**

We maintain a public offering of securities insurance and appropriate policies of insurance consistent with those customarily carried by organizations in our industry sector. These increases in the cost of such insurance policies or the industry in which we operate could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operational results. Our insurance coverage may also be inadequate to cover losses it sustains. Uninsured loss or a loss in excess of our insured limits could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operational results.

***We may require substantial additional funding to grow our business, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.***

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had $255,530 and $49,126 in cash and cash equivalents, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, we had $9,084,082 short-term bank deposits. We had no short-term bank deposits as of December 31, 2021. While we expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents and our short-term bank deposit as of December 31, 2022 will be sufficient to fund our current operations and satisfy our obligations for the next twelve months, we may require additional funding to fund and grow our operations and to complete development of certain products and bring them to the market. There can be no assurance that any financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In the event we require additional capital, the inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our development plans. In that event, shareholders would likely experience a loss of most or all of their investment. Any additional funding that we do obtain may be dilutive to the interests of existing shareholders.

***We may not accurately forecast revenues, profitability and appropriately plan our expenses.***

We base our current and future expense levels on our operating forecasts and estimates of future income and operating results. Income and operating results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on the volume sales and timing, which are uncertain. Additionally, our business is affected by general economic and business conditions around the world. A softening in income, whether caused by changes in consumer preferences in the unmanned platform markets, or a weakening in global economies, may result in decreased net revenue levels, and we may be unable to adjust our expenses in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in income. This inability could cause our (loss)/income after tax in a given quarter to be (higher)/lower than expected. We also make certain assumptions when forecasting the amount of expense we expect related to our share-based payments, which includes the expected volatility of our share price, and the expected life of share options granted. These assumptions are partly based on historical results. If actual results differ from our estimates, our operating results in a given period may be lower than expected.

***We rely on highly skilled personnel, and, if we are unable to attract, retain or motivate qualified personnel, we may not be able to operate our business effectively.***

Our success depends in large part on the continued employment of senior management and key personnel who can effectively operate our business, as well as our ability to attract and retain skilled employees. Competition for highly skilled management, technical, research and development and other employees is intense and we may not be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel in the future. In making employment decisions, candidates often consider the value of the equity awards they would receive in connection with their employment. Our long-term incentive programs may not be attractive enough or perform sufficiently to attract or retain qualified personnel.

If any of our employees leave us, and we fail to effectively manage a transition to new personnel, or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and experienced professionals on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our success also depends on our having highly trained financial, technical, recruiting, sales and marketing personnel. We will need to continue to hire additional personnel as our business grows. A shortage in the number of people with these skills or our failure to attract them to our company could impede our ability to increase revenues from our existing technology and services or launch new product offerings and would have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.

***We may have difficulty in entering into and maintaining strategic alliances with third parties.***

 ****

We may enter into strategic alliances with third parties to gain access to new and innovative technologies and markets. These parties are often large, established companies. Negotiating and performing under these arrangements involves significant time and expense, particularly those with companies that have significantly greater financial and other resources than we do. The anticipated benefits of these arrangements may never materialize, and performing under these arrangements may require significant resources which may affect our results of operations.

***We may not be able to obtain patents or other intellectual property rights necessary to protect our proprietary technology and business.***

 ****

The value of our products depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property, including trademarks, copyrights, patents and moral rights.

We currently have a patent application pending and may seek to patent additional concepts, components, processes, designs and methods, and other inventions and technologies that we consider to have commercial value or that will likely give us a technological advantage. Despite devoting resources to the research and development of proprietary technology, we may not be able to develop technology that is patentable or protectable. Patents may not be issued in connection with pending patent applications, and claims allowed may not be sufficient to allow them to use the inventions that they create exclusively.

Furthermore, any patents issued could be challenged, re-examined, held invalid or unenforceable or circumvented and may not provide sufficient protection or a competitive advantage. In addition, despite efforts to protect and maintain patents, competitors and other third parties may be able to design around their patents or develop products similar to our work products that are not within the scope of their patents. Finally, patents provide certain statutory protection only for a limited period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction and type of patent.

Prosecution and protection of the rights sought in patent applications and patents can be costly and uncertain, often involve complex legal and factual issues and consume significant time and resources. In addition, the breadth of claims allowed in our patents, their enforceability and our ability to protect and maintain them cannot be predicted with any certainty. The laws of certain countries may not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of Israel. Even if our patents are held to be valid and enforceable in a certain jurisdiction, any legal proceedings that we may initiate against third parties to enforce such patents will likely be expensive, take significant time and divert management's attention from other business matters. We cannot assure that any of our issued patents or pending patent applications provide any protectable, maintainable or enforceable rights or competitive advantages to us.

In addition to patents, we will rely on a combination of proprietary know how, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other related laws and confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect, maintain and enforce our proprietary technology and intellectual property rights in Israel and other countries. However, our ability to protect our brands by registering certain trademarks may be limited. In addition, while we will generally enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with our employees, consultants, contract manufacturers, distributors and resellers and with others to attempt to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary and confidential information, it is possible that:

● misappropriation of our proprietary and confidential information, including technology, will nevertheless occur;

● our confidentiality agreements will not be honored or may be rendered unenforceable;

● third parties will independently develop equivalent, superior or competitive technology or products;

● disputes will arise with our current or future strategic licensees, customers or others concerning the ownership, validity, enforceability, use, patentability or registrability of intellectual property; or

● unauthorized disclosure of our know-how, trade secrets or other proprietary or confidential information will occur.

We cannot assure that we will be successful in protecting, maintaining or enforcing our intellectual property rights. If we are unsuccessful in protecting, maintaining or enforcing our intellectual property rights, then our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, which could:

● adversely affect our reputation with customers;

● be time-consuming and expensive to evaluate and defend;

● cause product shipment delays or stoppages;

● divert management's attention and resources;

● subject us to significant liabilities and damages;

● require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements; or

● require us to cease certain activities, including the sale of products.

If it is determined that we have infringed, violated or are infringing or violating a patent or other intellectual property right of any other person or if we are found liable in respect of any other related claim, then, in addition to being liable for potentially substantial damages, we may be prohibited from developing, using, distributing, selling or commercializing certain of our technologies unless we obtain a license from the holder of the patent or other intellectual property right. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain any such license on a timely basis or on commercially favorable terms, or that any such licenses will be available, or that workarounds will be feasible and cost-efficient. If we do not obtain such a license or find a cost-efficient workaround, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected and we could be required to cease related business operations in some markets and restructure our business to focus on our continuing operations in other markets.

***We may be unable to keep pace with changes in technology as our business and market strategy evolves.***

 ****

We will need to respond to technological advances in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to remain competitive. The need to respond to technological changes may require us to make substantial, unanticipated expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to respond successfully to technological changes. If we will be unable to respond successfully to technological advance, we may lose our competitive advantage, which could adversely affect our business.

***Significant disruptions of our information technology systems or breaches of our data security could adversely affect our business.***

 ****

A significant invasion, interruption, destruction or breakdown of our information technology systems and/or infrastructure by persons with authorized or unauthorized access could negatively impact our business and operations. We could also experience business interruption, information theft and reputational damage from cyber-attacks, which may compromise our systems and lead to data leakage either internally or at our third-party providers. Our systems may be the target of malware and other cyber-attacks. Although we have invested in measures to reduce these risks, we cannot assure you that these measures will be successful in preventing compromise or disruption of our information technology systems a data.

***We may be subject to general litigation, regulatory disputes and government inquiries.***

 ****

As a growing company with expanding operations, we may in the future increasingly face the risk of claims, lawsuits, government investigations and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust, intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, accessibility claims, securities, tax, labor and employment, commercial disputes, services and other matters. The number and significance of these disputes and inquiries have increased as the political and regulatory landscape changes, and as we have grown larger and expanded in scope and geographic reach, and our services have increased in complexity.

We cannot predict the outcome of such disputes and inquiries with certainty. Regardless of the outcome, these can have an adverse impact on us because of legal costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. Determining reserves for any litigation is a complex, fact-intensive process that is subject to judgment calls. It is possible that a resolution of one or more such proceedings could require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments, fines or penalties or to settle claims or proceedings, any of which could harm our business. These proceedings could also result in reputational harm, criminal sanctions, consent decrees or orders preventing us from offering certain products or services or requiring a change in our business practices in costly ways or requiring development of non-infringing or otherwise altered products or technologies. Litigation and other claims and regulatory proceedings against us could result in unexpected expenses and liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

***We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, shareholders could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.***

Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together with adequate disclosure controls and procedures are designed to prevent fraud. Our management will be required to assess the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and disclose changes in these controls on an annual basis. However, for as long as we are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404.

Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. In addition, any testing by us conducted in connection with Section 404, or any subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm, may reveal deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses or that may require prospective or retroactive changes to our financial statements or identify other areas for further attention or improvement. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. As defined in Regulation 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, a "material weakness" is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual financial statements will not be prevented, or detected on a timely basis. Specifically, we determined that the material weaknesses are related to having an insufficient number of financial reporting personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations commensurate with our reporting requirements and inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.

We have taken action toward remediating these material weaknesses by hiring additional qualified personnel with U.S. GAAP accounting and reporting experience, and intend to provide enhanced training to existing financial and accounting employees on related U.S. GAAP issues. In addition, to remediate these material weaknesses, we are implementing measures including the following:

● we have hired a chief financial officer with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience and chief accountant and we are continuing to seek additional financial professionals to increase the number of qualified financial reporting personnel and implement segregation of duties; and

● we are developing, communicating and implementing an accounting policy manual for our financial reporting personnel for recurring transactions, period-end closing processes and policy relating to segregation of duties.

However, the implementation of these initiatives may not fully address any material weakness or other deficiencies that we may have in our internal control over financial reporting.

Furthermore, we have not yet commenced the process of determining whether our existing internal control over financial reporting systems are compliant with Section 404 and whether there are any other material weaknesses in our existing internal controls. These controls and other procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file with the SEC is disclosed accurately and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

Even if we develop effective internal control over financial reporting, these controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with these policies or procedures may deteriorate, and material weaknesses and deficiencies may be discovered in them. We are working with our legal, independent accounting and financial advisors to identify those areas in which changes should be made to our financial and management control systems to manage our growth and our obligations as a public company. These areas include corporate governance, corporate control, disclosure controls and procedures and financial reporting.

We have made, and will continue to make, changes in these and other areas. In any event, the process of determining whether our existing internal controls are compliant with Section 404 and sufficiently effective will require the investment of substantial time and resources, including by our chief financial officer and other members of our senior management. As a result, this process may divert internal resources and take a significant amount of time and effort to complete, even more so after we are no longer an "Emerging Growth Company." In addition, we cannot predict the outcome of this process and whether we will need to implement remedial actions in order to implement effective controls over financial reporting. The determination of whether or not our internal controls are sufficient and any remedial actions required could result in us incurring additional costs that we did not anticipate, including the hiring of outside consultants. We may also fail to complete our evaluation, testing and any required remediation needed to comply with Section 404 in a timely fashion. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404, any additional failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results of operations and harm our reputation. As a result, we may experience higher than anticipated operating expenses, as well as higher independent auditor fees during and after the implementation of these changes. If we are unable to implement any of the required changes to our internal control over financial reporting effectively or efficiently or are required to do so earlier than anticipated, it could adversely affect our operations, financial reporting or results of operations and could result in an adverse opinion on internal controls from our independent auditors.

Furthermore, if we are unable to certify that our internal control over financial reporting is effective and in compliance with Section 404, we may be subject to sanctions or investigations by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC or stock exchanges, and we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could hurt our business, the price of our Ordinary Shares and our ability to access the capital market.

 ****

***New regulation as well as regulation in new target territories, including regulation relating to unmanned platforms, video and audio systems, may create obstacles to our sales and marketing efforts.***

Other than the provisions of the Israeli Encouragement of Industrial Research, Development and Technological Innovation Law, 1984, as amended, and related regulations, or the Research Law, which may restrict our ability to move the production of products developed using grants received from the Israeli Innovation Authority, or the IIA (see "Risk Factors - Risks Related to Israeli Law and our Operations in Israel - We received Israeli government grants for certain of our research and development activities, the terms of which may require us to pay royalties and to satisfy specified conditions in order to manufacture products and transfer technologies outside of Israel. If we fail to satisfy these conditions, we may be required to pay penalties and refund grants previously received" for further information), our products currently are not required to comply with any regulatory obligations in Israel. In events where our products have been required to comply with any foreign regulation, these issues have been under the jurisdiction and responsibility of our local distributors or customers. However, expansion of our operation into new territories, enhancing our sales and marketing in existing foreign territories, as well as new regulations that might be enacted in the future which may apply to our technologies or market segment, may require us in the future to ensure that our products are in compliance with various regulatory constrains or technology standards imposed by local authorities. Such development may require us to make additional expenses in order to ensure compliance, as well as hinder or delay us from entering certain markets, thus adversely affecting our business, financial condition and operational results.

**Risks Related to Israeli Law and our Operations in Israel**

***Political, economic and military instability in Israel may impede our ability to operate and harm our financial results.***

Our offices and management team are located in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. In May and June 2021 and in recent years, Israel has been engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with Hamas, an Islamist terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip, with Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, and with Iranian-backed military forces in Syria. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. Some of these hostilities were accompanied by missiles being fired from the Gaza Strip against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which our employees and some of our consultants are located, and negatively affected business conditions in Israel. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations.

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions and could harm our results of operations.

Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business.

In addition, many Israeli citizens are obligated to perform several days, and in some cases more, of annual military reserve duty each year until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for reservists who are military officers or who have certain occupations) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In response to increases in terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will be military reserve duty call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups, which may include the call-up of members of our management. Such disruption could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, the newly elected Israeli government is currently pursuing extensive changes to Israel's judicial system, including plans to significantly reduce the Israeli Supreme Court's ability to strike down legislation that it deems unreasonable, and plans to increase political influence over the selection of judges. In response to the foregoing developments, individuals, organizations and institutions, both within and outside of Israel, have voiced concerns that the proposed changes may negatively impact the business environment in Israel including due to reluctance of foreign investors to invest or conduct business in Israel, as well as to increased currency fluctuations, downgrades in credit rating, increased interest rates, increased volatility in securities markets, and other changes in macroeconomic conditions. Such proposed changes may also adversely affect the labor market in Israel or lead to political instability or civil unrest. To the extent that any of these negative developments do occur, they may have an adverse effect on our business, our results of operations and our ability to raise additional funds.

***Exchange rate fluctuations between foreign currencies and the U.S. Dollar may negatively affect our earnings.***

Our reporting and functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Our revenues are currently primarily payable in U.S. dollars and we expect our future revenues to be denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. However, certain amounts of our revenues and expenses are also in NIS and Euro. As a result, we are exposed to the currency fluctuation risks relating to the recording of our expenses in U.S. dollars. We may, in the future, decide to enter into currency hedging transactions. These measures, however, may not adequately protect us from material adverse effects.

***We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation and adversely affect our business.***

A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees in the course of their employment for us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee in the course and as a result of or arising from his or her employment with a company are regarded as "service inventions," which belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement between the employee and employer giving the employee service invention rights. The Patent Law also provides that if there is no such agreement between an employer and an employee, the Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, will determine whether the employee is entitled to remuneration for his inventions. Recent case law clarifies that the right to receive consideration for "service inventions" can be waived by the employee and that in certain circumstances, such waiver does not necessarily have to be explicit. The Committee will examine, on a case-by-case basis, the general contractual framework between the parties, using interpretation rules of the general Israeli contract laws. Further, the Committee has not yet determined one specific formula for calculating this remuneration (but rather uses the criteria specified in the Patent Law). Although we have entered into assignment-of-invention agreements with all our current and former employees pursuant to which such individuals assign to us all rights to any inventions created in the scope of their employment or engagement with us, we may still face claims demanding remuneration in consideration for assigned inventions. If such claims are found to have merit despite our assignment of invention agreements, we could be required to pay additional remuneration or royalties to our current and/or former employees, or be forced to litigate such claims, which could negatively affect our business.

***We received Israeli government grants for certain of our research and development activities, the terms of which may require us to pay royalties and to satisfy specified conditions in order to manufacture products and transfer technologies outside of Israel. If we fail to satisfy these conditions, we may be required to pay penalties and refund grants previously received.***

 ****

Our research and development efforts were financed in part through grants from the IIA. As of December 31, 2022, we received approximately $396,575 (including accumulated interest) in aggregate from the IIA for the development of our products.

With respect to such grants, in some cases, we are committed to pay royalties at a rate of 3% to 5% on sales proceeds from our products that were developed under IIA programs up to the total amount of grants received, linked to the U.S. dollar and bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR applicable to U.S. dollar deposits. As of March 6, 2023, we paid approximately $7,301 in connection with a single sale during 2012. Since 2013, the Company did not utilize the intellectual property that was developed using the governmental grant in any of its products. The total sum of royalties, including accumulated interest, we are required to repay the IIA, as of March 6, 2023, is approximately $285,204, net, after deducting the sums we paid as royalties to the IIA.

Regardless of any royalty payment, we are further required to comply with the requirements of the Research Law with respect to those past grants. When a company develops know-how, technology or products using IIA grants, the terms of these grants and the Research Law restrict the transfer of such know-how, and the transfer of manufacturing or manufacturing rights of such products, technologies or know-how outside of Israel, without the prior approval of the IIA. We may not receive those approvals. Furthermore, the IIA may impose certain conditions on any arrangement under which it permits us to transfer technology or development. This may restrict our ability to move the production of our products outside of Israel, or to sell intellectual property and other know-how.

***It may be difficult to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against us and our executive officers and directors and the Israeli experts named in this Annual Report on Form 20-F in Israel or the United States, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our executive officers and directors and these experts.***

We were incorporated in Israel. Substantially all of our executive officers and directors reside outside of the United States, and all of our assets and most of the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, a judgment obtained against us, or any of these persons, including a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, may not be collectible in the United States and may not be enforced by an Israeli court. It also may be difficult for you to effect service of process on these persons in the United States or to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to initiate an action with respect to U.S. securities laws in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of U.S. securities laws reasoning that Israel is not the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli 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 proven as a fact by expert witnesses, which can be a time consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel that addresses the matters described above. As a result of the difficulty associated with enforcing a judgment against us in Israel, you may not be able to collect any damages awarded by either a U.S. or foreign court (see "Enforceability of Civil Liabilities" for additional information on your ability to enforce a civil claim against us and our executive officers or directors named in this Annual Report on Form 20-F).

 ****

***Your rights and responsibilities as a shareholder will be governed in key respects by Israeli laws, which differ in some material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. companies.***

The rights and responsibilities of the holders of our Ordinary Shares are governed by our articles of association and by Israeli law. These rights and responsibilities differ in some material respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in U.S. companies. In particular, a shareholder of an Israeli company has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising its rights and performing its obligations towards the company and other shareholders, and to refrain from abusing its power in such company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting of shareholders on matters such as amendments to a company's articles of association, increases in a company's authorized share capital, mergers and acquisitions and related party transactions requiring shareholder approval, as well as a general duty to refrain from discriminating against other shareholders. In addition, a shareholder who is aware that it possesses the power to determine the outcome of a vote at a meeting of the shareholders or to appoint or prevent the appointment of a director or executive officer in the company has a duty of fairness toward the company. There is limited case law available to assist us in understanding the nature of these duties or the implications of these provisions. These provisions may be interpreted to impose additional obligations and liabilities on holders of our ordinary shares that are not typically imposed on shareholders of U.S. companies.

**Risks Related to Our Status as a Public Company and Ownership of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants**

***As of December 31, 2022, our principal shareholders, officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 40.87% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares. They will therefore be able to exert significant control over matters submitted to our shareholders for approval.***

As of December 31, 2022, our principal shareholders, officers and directors, in the aggregate, beneficially owned approximately 40.87% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares. This significant concentration of share ownership may adversely affect the trading price for our Ordinary Shares because investors often perceive disadvantages in owning shares in companies with controlling shareholders. As a result, these shareholders, if they acted together, could significantly influence matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions. The interests of these shareholders may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other shareholders.

***We are an emerging growth company and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our securities less attractive to investors.***

We are an emerging growth company and, for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to "emerging growth companies," including:

● not being required to have our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

● permission to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies;

● reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and annual report on Form 20-F; and

● exemptions from the requirements of holding non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We may take advantage some or all of these and other exemptions until we are no longer an "emerging growth company". We could be an emerging growth company up to the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering, although we expect to not be an emerging growth company sooner. Our status as an emerging growth company will end as soon as any of the following take place:

● the last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue;

● the date we qualify as a "large accelerated filer," with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates;

● the date on which we have issued, in any three-year period, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or

● the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary after we become a public company.

We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive if we choose to rely on any of the exemptions afforded emerging growth companies. If some investors find our securities less attractive because we rely on any of these exemptions, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the market price of our securities may be more volatile.

In addition, under the JOBS Act, "emerging growth companies" can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption and, as a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that we can elect to opt out of the extended transition period at any time, which election is irrevocable.

Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may qualify as a "smaller reporting company", which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements (excluding the exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. However, as a foreign private issuer we are not eligible to use the requirements for smaller reporting companies unless we use the forms and rules designated for domestic issuers and provide financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We cannot predict if investors will find our securities less attractive if we may rely on either of these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and our share price may be more volatile.

***We cannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares and Warrants will remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchange.***

On January 17, 2023, we received a written notification from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, notifying us that we were not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, because the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares was below $1.00 per Ordinary Share for the previous 30 consecutive business days. We were granted 180 calendar days, or until July 17, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On March 3, 2023, we received a formal notification from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq that we have regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement as the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares was $1.00 per share or greater for the prior 20 consecutive business days. Accordingly, we have regained compliance with Minimum Bid Price Requirement and Nasdaq considers the prior bid price deficiency matter now closed.

There can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to comply with all applicable Nasdaq listing requirements now or in the future. If we are unable to maintain compliance with these Nasdaq requirements, our Ordinary Shares and Warrants will be delisted from Nasdaq.

In the event that our Ordinary Shares and Warrants are delisted from Nasdaq, as a result of our failure to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or any other requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, and are not eligible for listing on another exchange, trading in our Ordinary Shares and Warrants could be conducted in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our Ordinary Shares or Warrants, and it would likely be more difficult to obtain coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our Ordinary Shares or Warrants to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a national exchange.

 **

***We incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company. Our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives as well as compliance with ongoing U.S. requirements.***

 **

As a public company in the United States, we incur additional significant accounting, legal and other expenses that we did not incur before our initial public offering, or IPO. We also incur costs associated with corporate governance requirements of the SEC, and will incur costs in connection with the requirements under Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These rules and regulations have increased our legal and financial compliance costs, introduce new costs such as investor relations, stock exchange listing fees and shareholder reporting, and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. The maintenance and testing of such processes and systems may require us to hire outside consultants and incur other significant costs. Any future changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies in the United States, including Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, for so long as they apply to us, will result in increased costs to us as we respond to such changes. These laws, rules and regulations could make it more difficult or more costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees, or as executive officers.

***The estimates of market opportunity, market size and forecasts of market growth included in our publicly-filed documents may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rate, if at all.***

 ****

Market opportunity, size estimates and growth forecasts included in this Annual Report on Form 20-F are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate. Net revenue and operating results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on the volume, timing and type of orders we receive, all of which are uncertain. We base our expense levels and investment plans on our estimates of total net revenue and gross margins using human judgment combined with machine learning, natural language processing and data analytics. We cannot be sure the same growth rates, trends and other key performance metrics are meaningful predictors of future growth. If our assumptions and calculations prove to be wrong, we may spend more than we anticipate acquiring and retaining customers or may generate less net revenue per active customer than anticipated, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and results of operations.

In addition, we are evaluating our total addressable market with respect to new product offerings and new markets. These estimates of total addressable market and growth forecasts are subject to significant uncertainty, are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate and are based on data published by third parties that we have not independently verified. Even if the market in which we compete meets the size estimates and growth forecasted in this Annual Report on Form 20-F, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

Our business is also affected by general economic and business conditions in international markets. A significant portion of our expenses is fixed, and as a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in net revenue. Any failure to accurately predict net revenue or gross margins could cause our operating results to be lower than expected, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and share price.

***The market price of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants may be highly volatile and such volatility could cause you to lose some or all of your investment and also subject us to litigation.***

 ****

The market price of our Ordinary Shares and Warrants may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as:

● the announcement of new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors;

● developments concerning intellectual property rights;

● changes in legal, regulatory, and enforcement frameworks impacting our technology or the application of our technology;

● variations in our and our competitors' results of operations;

● fluctuations in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts, if our securities are covered by analysts;

● the results of product liability or intellectual property lawsuits;

● future issuances of securities;

● the addition or departure of key personnel;

● announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances;

● general market conditions and other factors, including factors unrelated to our operating performance;

● other events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism or responses to these events; and

● general economic, political and market conditions in the United States or elsewhere.

Furthermore, in recent years, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies, and technology companies in particular. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively impact the market price of our Ordinary Shares or Warrants.

In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention from other business concerns, which could also harm our business.

***Future sales of our Ordinary Shares could reduce the market price of our Ordinary Shares.***

 ****

Substantial sales of our Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, may cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to decline. Sales by us or our security holders of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares, or the perception that these sales may occur in the future, could cause a reduction in the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

The issuance of any additional Ordinary Shares or any securities that are exercisable for or convertible into Ordinary Shares, may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Ordinary Shares and will have a dilutive effect on our existing shareholders and holders of Ordinary Shares.

***Our management team has limited experience managing a public company.***

 ****

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer both have experience managing a public company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. However, our management team, as a whole, has limited experience working for a public company and may not be able to successfully or efficiently manage the transition to being a public company subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These new obligations and constituents will require significant attention from our senior management, particularly from our chief executive officer, and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of our business, which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

***Our articles of association provide that, unless we consent to an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, which could limit our shareholders' ability to choose the judicial forum for disputes with us, our directors, shareholders, or other employees. In addition, the agreements governing the Warrants provide that disputes shall be brought in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and that a claim under the U.S. federal securities laws may be made in any federal district court.***

 ****

Similarly, the agreement governing the Warrants provide that, and by owning Warrants investors agree that, all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by the Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any such dispute and irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. The warrant agent agreement has similar provisions with respect to the Company and the warrant agent. Each of the agreement governing the Warrants and the warrant agent agreement provide that the foregoing provisions do not limit or restrict the federal district court in which a party may bring a claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.

However, the enforceability of similar forum provisions (including exclusive federal forum provisions for actions, suits, or proceedings asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act) in other companies' organizational documents and similar agreements has been challenged in legal proceedings, and there is uncertainty as to whether courts would enforce the exclusive forum provision in our articles of association or the agreements governing the Warrants. If a court were to find the exclusive forum provision contained in our articles of association or the agreements governing the Warrants to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Although we believe the exclusive forum provision benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of U.S. federal securities laws, the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, or New York law, as applicable, in the types of lawsuits to which they apply, such exclusive forum provision may limit a shareholder's ability to bring a claim in the judicial forum of their choosing for disputes with us or any of our directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims against us and our current and former directors, shareholders, officers, or other employees.

***If securities or industry analysts either do not publish research about us or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our Ordinary Shares or Warrants adversely, the trading price or trading volume of our Ordinary Shares could decline.***

 ****

The trading market for our Ordinary Shares and Warrants will be influenced in part by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If one or more of the analysts initiate research with an unfavorable rating or downgrade our Ordinary Shares, provide a more favorable recommendation about our competitors or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market prices of our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the trading price or trading volume of our Ordinary Shares to decline.

***We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.***

 ****

We currently intend to retain any future earnings to repay shareholder loans and finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, shareholders must rely on sales of their Ordinary Shares after price appreciation as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment.

Furthermore, to the extent that we pay any dividends in the future, the ability to offer fully franked dividends, *i.e.* dividends that come from already taxed earnings, is contingent on making taxable profits in excess of accumulated losses. Taxable profits may be volatile, making the payment of dividends unpredictable.

The value and availability of franking credits to a shareholder will differ depending on the shareholder's particular tax circumstances. Shareholders should also be aware that the ability to use franking credits, either as a tax offset or to claim a refund after the end of the income year, will depend on the individual tax position of each shareholder.

***Our investors' ownership in the Company may be diluted in the future.***

 ****

In the future, we may issue additional authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of ownership interests of our present shareholders. Furthermore, we may issue equity awards to management, employees and other eligible persons in the future under our 2021 Share Option Plan. Additional Ordinary Shares issued by us in the future will dilute an investor's investment in the Company. In addition, we may seek shareholder approval to increase the amount of the Company's authorized shares, which would create the potential for further dilution of current investors.

***The market prices of our Ordinary Shares could be affected by our involvement in a possible, future litigation.***

 ****

In the ordinary course of business, we may be involved in litigation disputes from time to time. Litigation disputes brought by third parties, including but not limited to intellectual property, distribution partners, customers, suppliers, business partners and employees may adversely impact the financial performance and industry standing of the business, in the case where the impact of legal proceedings is greater than or outside the scope of our insurance. We are not currently involved in any litigation.

***Possible force majeure events could impact our operations and the market price of our Ordinary Shares*.**

Events may occur within or outside the United States and Israel that could impact on the American and/or Israeli economy, our operations and the market price of our Ordinary Shares. These events include acts of terrorism, an outbreak of international hostilities, fires, floods, earthquakes, labor strikes, civil wars, natural disasters, outbreaks of disease or other natural or manmade events or occurrences that can have an adverse effect on the demand for our products and its ability to conduct business. While we seek to maintain insurance in accordance with industry practice to insure against the risks it considers appropriate after consideration of our needs and circumstances, no assurance can be given as to our ability to obtain such insurance coverage in the future at reasonable rates or that any coverage arranged will be adequate and available to cover any and all potential claims. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***As a "foreign private issuer" we are permitted, and intend, to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of otherwise applicable SEC and Nasdaq requirements, which may result in less protection than is accorded to investors under rules applicable to domestic U.S. issuers.***

 ****

Our status as a foreign private issuer also exempts us from compliance with certain SEC laws and regulations and certain regulations of Nasdaq, including the proxy rules, the short-swing profits recapture rules, and certain governance requirements such as independent director oversight of the nomination of directors and executive compensation. In addition, we will not be required under the Exchange Act to file current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act and we will generally be exempt from filing quarterly reports with the SEC. Also, although the Companies Law requires us to disclose the annual compensation of our five most highly compensated senior officers on an individual basis (rather than on an aggregate basis), this disclosure will not be as extensive as that required of a U.S. domestic issuer. For example, the disclosure required under Israeli law would be limited to compensation paid in the immediately preceding year without any requirement to disclose option exercises and vested stock options, pension benefits or potential payments upon termination or a change of control. Furthermore, as a foreign private issuer, we are also not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act.

These exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections to which you are entitled as an investor.

The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer's most recently completed second fiscal quarter and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2023. In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our shareholders, directors or management are U.S. citizens or residents and we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic registrant may be significantly higher.

***We may become a "passive foreign investment company," or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the current taxable year or may become one in any subsequent taxable year. There generally would be negative tax consequences for U.S. taxpayers that are holders of the Ordinary Shares if we are or were to become a PFIC.***

 ****

Based on the projected composition of our income and valuation of our assets, we do not expect to be a PFIC for 2022, and we do not expect to become a PFIC in the future, although there can be no assurance in this regard. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is made on an annual basis and will depend on the composition of our income and assets from time to time. We will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which either (1) at least 75% of our gross income is "passive income" or (2) on average at least 50% of our assets by value produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income for this purpose generally includes, among other things, certain dividends, interest, royalties, rents and gains from commodities and securities transactions and from the sale or exchange of property that gives rise to passive income. Passive income also includes amounts derived by reason of the temporary investment of funds, including those raised in a public offering. In determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a proportionate share of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 25% interest (by value) is taken into account. The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually, and it is difficult to make accurate projections of future income and assets which are relevant to this determination. In addition, our PFIC status may depend in part on the market value of the Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we currently are not or will not become a PFIC in the future. If we are a PFIC in any taxable year during which a U.S. taxpayer holds the Ordinary Shares, such U.S. taxpayer would be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax rules. In particular, if the U.S. taxpayer did not make an election to treat us as a "qualified electing fund", or QEF, or make a "mark-to-market" election, then "excess distributions" to the U.S. taxpayer, and any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Ordinary Shares by the U.S. taxpayer: (1) would be allocated ratably over the U.S. taxpayer's holding period for the Ordinary Shares; (2) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any period prior to the first day of the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income; and (3) the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, if the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, determines that we are a PFIC for a year with respect to which we have determined that we were not a PFIC, it may be too late for a U.S. taxpayer to make a timely QEF or mark-to-market election. U.S. taxpayers that have held the Ordinary Shares during a period when we were a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC in subsequent years, subject to exceptions for U.S. taxpayer who made a timely QEF or mark-to-market election. A U.S. taxpayer can make a QEF election by completing the relevant portions of and filing IRS Form 8621 in accordance with the instructions thereto. We do not intend to notify U.S. taxpayers that hold the Ordinary Shares if we believe we will be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year in order to enable U.S. taxpayers to consider whether to make a QEF election. In addition, we do not intend to furnish such U.S. taxpayers annually with information needed in order to complete IRS Form 8621 and to make and maintain a valid QEF election for any year in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a PFIC. U.S. taxpayers that hold the Ordinary Shares are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules, including tax return filing requirements and the eligibility, manner, and consequences to them of making a QEF or mark-to-market election with respect to the Ordinary Shares in the event that we are a PFIC.

***We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.***

 ****

In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management's attention and resources, which could seriously hurt our business. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject us to significant liabilities.

**General Risk Factors**

***If we are not able to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, technical and marketing personnel, we may not be able to implement our business model successfully.***

 ****

Our success depends in part on our continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified management. We are highly dependent upon our senior management as well as other employees and consultants. Our management team must be able to act decisively to apply and adapt our business model in the rapidly changing markets in which we will compete. In addition, we will rely upon technical employees or third-party contractors to effectively establish, manage and grow our business. Consequently, we believe that our future viability will depend largely on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, sales and technical personnel. In order to do so, we may need to pay higher compensation or fees to our employees or consultants than currently expected and such higher compensation payments may have a negative effect on our operating results. Competition for experienced, high-quality personnel in the digital video and data transfer technologies field is intense. We may not be able to hire or retain the necessary personnel to implement our business strategy. Our failure to hire and retain quality personnel on acceptable terms could impair our ability to develop new products and services and manage our business effectively.

***If we engage in future acquisitions or strategic partnerships, this may increase our capital requirements, dilute our shareholders, cause us to incur debt or assume contingent liabilities, and subject us to other risks.***

 ****

We may evaluate various acquisition opportunities and strategic partnerships, including licensing or acquiring complementary products, intellectual property rights, technologies or businesses. Any potential acquisition or strategic partnership may entail numerous risks, including:

● increased operating expenses and cash requirements;

● the assumption of additional indebtedness or contingent liabilities;

● the issuance of our equity securities;

● assimilation of operations, intellectual property and products of an acquired company, including difficulties associated with integrating new personnel;

● the diversion of our management's attention from our existing product programs and initiatives in pursuing such a strategic merger or acquisition;

● retention of key employees, the loss of key personnel and uncertainties in our ability to maintain key business relationships;

● risks and uncertainties associated with the other party to such a transaction, including the prospects of that party and their existing products or product candidates and marketing approvals; and

● our inability to generate revenue from acquired technology and/or products sufficient to meet our objectives in undertaking the acquisition or even to offset the associated acquisition and maintenance costs.

***We are subject to certain U.S. and foreign anticorruption, anti-money laundering, export control, sanctions and other trade laws and regulations. We can face serious consequences for violations.***

 ****

Among other matters, U.S. and foreign anticorruption, anti-money laundering, export control, sanctions and other trade laws and regulations, which are collectively referred to as Trade Laws, prohibit companies and their employees, agents, legal counsel, accountants, consultants, contractors and other partners from authorizing, promising, offering, providing, soliciting or receiving, directly or indirectly, corrupt or improper payments or anything else of value to or from recipients in the public or private sector. Violations of Trade Laws can result in substantial criminal fines and civil penalties, imprisonment, the loss of trade privileges, debarment, tax reassessments, breach of contract and fraud litigation, reputational harm, and other consequences. We have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or government-affiliated hospitals, universities and other organizations. We also expect our non-U.S. activities to increase over time. We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of our personnel, agents or partners, even if we do not explicitly authorize or have prior knowledge of such activities.

***Our business and operations might be adversely affected by security breaches, including any cybersecurity incidents.***

 ****

We depend on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications systems, and those of our consultants, contractors and vendors, which we use for, among other things, sensitive company data, including our intellectual property, financial data and other proprietary business information.

While certain of our operations have business continuity and disaster recovery plans and other security measures intended to prevent and minimize the impact of IT-related interruptions, our IT infrastructure and the IT infrastructure of our consultants, contractors and vendors are vulnerable to damage from cyberattacks, computer viruses, unauthorized access, electrical failures and natural disasters or other catastrophic events. We could experience failures in our information systems and computer servers, which could result in an interruption of our normal business operations and require substantial expenditure of financial and administrative resources to remedy. System failures, accidents or security breaches can cause interruptions in our operations and can result in a material disruption of our targeted phage therapies, product candidates and other business operations. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a loss of, or damage to, our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur regulatory investigations and redresses, penalties and liabilities and the development of our product candidates could be delayed or otherwise adversely affected.

Even though we believe we carry commercially reasonable business interruption and liability insurance, we might suffer losses as a result of business interruptions that exceed the coverage available under our insurance policies or for which we do not have coverage. For example, we are not insured against terrorist attacks. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event could have a significant negative impact on our operations and financial results. Moreover, any such event could delay the development of our product candidates.

***Sales of a significant number of our Ordinary Shares in the public markets or significant short sales of our Ordinary Shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, could depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares and impair our ability to raise capital.***

 ****

Sales of a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares or other equity-related securities in the public markets, could depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares. If there are significant short sales of our Ordinary Shares, the price decline that could result from this activity may cause the share price to decline more so, which, in turn, may cause long holders of the Ordinary Shares to sell their shares, thereby contributing to sales of Ordinary Shares in the market. Such sales also may impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable, if at all.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they adversely change their recommendations or publish negative reports regarding our business or the Ordinary Shares, our share price and trading volume could decline.***

 ****

The trading market for the Ordinary Shares will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. We do not have any control over these analysts and we cannot provide any assurance that analysts will cover us or provide favorable coverage. If any of the analysts who may cover us adversely change their recommendation regarding the Ordinary Shares, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price of our Ordinary Shares or trading volume to decline.

Unmanned platforms, equipped with video, communication and artificial intelligence analysis payloads, or Payload, are constantly being used for remote control, scene live monitoring, inspection, situational awareness and intelligence gathering in various ways, and the ubiquitous use and growth of the market has created the need for creative technological solutions in all areas relating to these platforms, with high-fidelity video and audio systems, onboard sensors and data processing units making the greatest gains. As new commercial functions for unmanned platforms continue to emerge, Payloads will also need to continue improving incrementally and become more stable, durable, and reliable, while their associated management software will continue to advance.

As such, factors like the need for increasing operational efficiency, reduced human intervention, and growth in sheer activities around the world and in new market segments, are at the forefront of the constant drive for new advancements and improvements, especially in the following areas:

●  ***High Fidelity, Streaming and Latency*** . Due to the growing need and demand for greater fidelity in video and audio, Payloads are now required to stream live video anywhere in the world at extremely high resolutions and high video quality. As unmanned platforms are more commonly used in defense and other real-time, high-risk scenarios, the industry is in constant search for technological solutions that will allow a user to operate the unmanned platform, stream and analyze video online from their location, in real time, with minimum to no delay or latency, without compromising video and audio integrity and resolution.

●  ***Size*** *.* The continuous need to create miniature unmanned platforms, which can easily avoid detection and allow maneuver indoors and entry to areas which are difficult for humans to access, indicate that, in general, Payloads will continue to decrease in size and miniaturize. As the trend of miniaturization continues, the market will constantly be searching for technical solutions which will allow the Payloads to become smaller and smaller, all the while maintaining or increasing their operational capabilities. For example, our Mars V300 is similar to the size of a quarter.

![](image_004.jpg)

●  ***Weight*** *.* Similarly, as Payloads are more and more commonly mounted on increasingly smaller unmanned platforms, as well as being mounted on humans and animals in the field, Payloads will need to continue decreasing in weight. As this trend continues, the market will constantly be searching for technical solutions which will allow the Payloads to become lighter without decreasing or jeopardizing their operational capabilities or functionalities. Weight may also have a significant influence on flight mission duration, which is also critical factor in mission planning.

***●***  ***Design*** *.* As new markets and industries begin to adopt unmanned platform technology for various uses, innovative Payload design has been relied upon to provide new Payload structures to enhance operations. Generally, the development of multi-modal unmanned platforms that can operate in mixed environments (day, night, air, land, water surface, underwater) are taking hold and there is a steady increase in demand for Payloads that can similarly operate in several environments simultaneously. Additionally, the wide use of unmanned platforms, which often involve the operation of various types of platforms simultaneously for the completion of the same task, all sharing data from the Payloads between them, requires design solutions aimed at efficient and continuous communication across various platforms.

●  ***Range and Endurance*** . The need to operate over increasingly longer distance, beyond visual line of sight and for long range and long-lasting missions will continue to drive an increase in operational range while maintaining and/or increasing endurance capabilities. New Payload designs and advancements in power supplies will be required to allow Payloads to operate effectively for longer periods and the industry is heavily invested in improving features relating to range and endurance.

●  ***Video encoding*** *.* Video encoding has faced evolving standards (i.e., MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264, HEVC) that require an increasing amount of computing power to realize increasing quality and efficiency. At the same time, the raw size of video has increased through standard definition, high definition, and now 4K and 8K resolutions. Both evolutions have created an exponential need for computing power to achieve real time (low latency) performance.

●  ***Sensors*** . The demand for greater capability in onboard sensors and processors for unmanned platforms is also increasing the need for smart design of the Payloads, so that numerous sensors can be included and incorporated in the Payload and analytics from various sensors can be delivered to users in real time, allowing for real time decision making, all without compromising or dramatically affecting the platform's performance, size, weight and cost.

●  ***Autonomy and Processing*** . As the need to use more and more unmanned platforms in various industries and functions grows, so does the need to create both platforms and Payloads which can operate autonomously (either semi autonomously or fully autonomously) while maintaining their operational capabilities (edge computing). As the need for autonomous platforms increases, so does the reliance on Payload features and capabilities as the autonomy of the platform itself often requires the use of Payload systems (such as sensors and processing) in order to enable functions, such as adaptive maneuverability, object sense-and-avoidance, object tracking, and waypoint navigation.

As to most of such intellectual property, the Company prefers not to register it as patents so as to avoid disclosure of confidential and proprietary data that may jeopardize its intellectual property by enabling competitors to learn of our non-patentable know-how (that will have to be disclosed as part of the registration of the patents for patentable know-how) and use it to their advantage. We believe that our know-how and expertise will permit us to continue to keep ahead of the competition in the design of new products. However, in view of the Company's expected growth and expanding the target markets, we seek to protect some of our innovations also by patents.

In April 2021, we filed a patent application in Israel and currently intend to file additional patents in Israel and then file for an international recognition. Pursuant to international conventions, such as the Paris Convention, an application made in Israel can be used to establish a priority date for applications subsequently made in other countries. For example, the Patent Cooperation Treaty, or the PCT, allows for an international application to be made claiming priority from an application made in a participating country. Under the PCT, a patent application must be made in each country where patent protection is sought and we filed for PCT in April 2022, using the priority date of the application filed in Israel.

We have entered into, and intend to continue to enter into, customary confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, customers, service providers and vendors that generally require that any confidential or proprietary information developed by us or on our behalf be kept confidential including, but not limited to, information related to our proprietary manufacturing process.

As of March 6, 2023, we:

● own extensive proprietary know-how, which is embedded in our product design, including, for example, modular universal infrastructure (firmware) ubiquitous for the entire range of our products and enabling low-effort customization for a variety of applications; or expertise in mechanical and thermo-design enabling products' operation in extreme environments and conditions (Our technology was tested and found to be fully operational in extreme temperature range, thermal vacuum, vibrations, shock absorbency etc. as part of our collaboration with Israeli SpaceIL and its implementation in the Israeli lunar vehicle - "Beresheet" and "Beresheet-2";

● have several patentable applications that we contemplate filing in the next 12 months, and which, at the current stage of research and preparation, we believe are viable. These include, for example: on-the-fly setting of encoding parameters in accordance with collected metadata;

● have one pending patent application for enhanced forward error correction for video streaming;

● own three Israeli Trademarks - "Neptune by Maris" (Israeli Trademark No. 337301), "XtremeView" (Israeli Trademark No. 337303), and "Mercury by Maris" (Israeli Trademark No. 337302); and

● have one pending trademark application for "Maris-Tech Ltd."

No assurance can be made that any patent or trademark will be granted with respect to any of our pending patent or trademark applications or with respect to any patent or trademark applications filed by us in the future. There is also a significant risk that any issued patents or trademarks will have substantially narrower claims than those being sought in our applications. Additionally, while we regularly enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with our employees and other third parties to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information and know how, it is possible that misappropriation and disclosure, will nevertheless occur.

**Competition**

The video surveillance and communication platform market in which we operate is characterized by intense competition, constant innovation and advancement, and evolving technological needs. Furthermore, since we compete with several well-established companies, we invest significant efforts to obtain technological advantages at the same time as we strive to offer a more cost-effective solution than the ones offered by our competitors.

We are constantly striving to improve our competitive status in the market by:

● entering into agreements or arrangements with large and high-level customers in the industry, which we believe enhances our status and reputation in the markets in which we operate and provides opportunities to build on existing relationships and enter into new agreements or arrangements with new customers;

● entering into agreements or arrangements with distributors and technological partners in order to strengthen our position in existing markets to penetrate new markets; and

● providing high level development and support services to existing customers, to promote customer retention, and encourage our customers to rely on us and continue using our services for future projects

***Our Competitive Advantages***

 ****

Armed with our various products and designs, we believe we possess industry-recognized unique combination of knowledge and features. We are a trusted partner in creating and developing products that can reliably serve in the most mission critical real-time video streaming and analysis operations and can be used in conjunction with any unmanned platform. We have an established track record and a vast portfolio of innovative core proprietary technologies, developed by an experienced and dedicated team of engineers, which we believe create a formidable barrier of entry to our competitors.

As such, we believe that our products have significant advantages compared to our competitors, both in terms of miniaturization, latency and functionality, and in our products' ability to provide our customers with a single solution that addresses all their needs in a single customizable, modular product.

Based on product comparisons that we have conducted, and in reviewing our products against the comparable products offered by our leading competitors, we believe that our products offer the most complete solution available as demonstrated in the chart below.

![](image_025.jpg)

 

Our collaboration with Hailo Technologies Ltd., or Hailo, a provider of low power AI accelerators, created a range of AI related products, such as the Jupiter-AI, Jupiter-SB-AI and will be also the basis for the Uranus-AI. This product range puts us in a strong competitive position for miniature, low power, low weight and powerful edge computing solutions.

 

*Modularity and Tailor-made Innovative Solutions*

Many of our competitors provide single product or functionality solutions. However, we believe our partners and end-customers value technological solutions that allow for the incorporation of several functionalities in a single product and do not require them to piece together technologies from different providers to achieve their desired outcomes. The modular nature of our products allows our products to be easily adapted, adjusted and combined, to meet the needs of the partner and end-customer.

*Miniaturization*

While all our competitors strive to create smaller and lighter products to compete with the market demand for miniature systems which can be mounted on both mini and micro unmanned platforms as well as on humans and animals. Our products can be miniaturized down to approximately one inch in size and six grams in weight, making them one of the smaller products available in the market today, without compromising the product functionality or operation.

 

*High Performance Products*

Our products can combine high performance video analytics from multiple streams and various data sensors, while supporting various video formats and several network streaming capabilities, while maintaining low power consumption (less than 1 watt) and extremely low latency. Our Mercury and Neptune products can achieve up to 100 millisecond end-to-end latency while our Venus products reach up to 1-2 millisecond end to end latency, making them the lowest latency players available today.

 

*Seasoned Leadership Team and Board with Deep Industry Expertise and Proven Track Record of Innovation*

We have been active in the market since 2010 and were established by Israel Bar, our Chairman, President and CEO who has extensive experience in the tech sector and oversees the daily operations of our business. The management team is composed of seasoned technology professionals with an average of more than 20 years of experience in the video industry. The largest defense and HLS entities in the local market are recurring customers of our products and technological solutions. As such, we have already established a name and reputation as an innovator and begun working with several international companies in several markets where we have enjoyed similar success.

**Research and Development**

Our products are currently used in commercial/military drones, aerial/ground/maritime autonomous vehicles, observation systems, other defense platforms (armored vehicles, aircrafts, etc.), law enforcement, and covert installations, as well as worn by humans or animals to aid in intelligence gathering, surveillance, reconnaissance and situational awareness and in video processing, recording and debriefing applications.

The Uranus-AI will answer to the rapidly growing need for multiple Ultra-HD video sensors mounted on remote platforms, especially unmanned, to achieve superb video quality and details accuracy as well as significant AI acceleration performance required for effectively utilizing such resolution and quality.

The Uranus-AI is designed to address defense, HLS, transportation and new-space markets for drones, unmanned defense vehicles, situational awareness, observation systems, autonomous vehicles, traffic control and space applications.

We expect to launch and introduce the Uranus-AI to the market during the fourth quarter of 2023.

**Production and Manufacturing**

We design our products in-house. The manufacturing of the components for our products is outsourced. We purchase such components as shelf products from several manufacturers to reduce dependency on a single manufacturer or on an "end-of-life" of any specific component. Assembly of our products is done by several electronic products assembly contractors. The final stage of "burning" the firmware image the inspections, and the quality control processes are conducted by the Company to ensure full control of its intellectual property and proper quality control for the products.

We consistently monitor our inventory levels, manufacturing and distribution capabilities, and maintain recovery plans to address potential disruptions that we may encounter. In the future, as we scale up our sales and production further, we may implement a turnkey operation with select manufacturers for our products.

We enter into agreements with our contractors. Pursuant to such agreements, the contractors will provide the components and/or perform the assembly of such components and/or service in accordance with specific terms of the mutually agreed work instructions and purchase orders. The agreements define the responsibilities of each party and the regulatory and compliance requirements that apply and contain industry-standard terms and guidelines.

**Marketing, Distribution Methods and Sales**

We are currently a leader in the Israeli market and are targeting expansion into the North American and the European markets. In the future, we also plan to seize opportunities that may arise in Western Europe, India, Singapore and South Korea. Currently, we provide our partners and end customers both ready-made, off-the-shelf products, sold through our sales representatives, distributors and resellers, and custom-made products developed and adapted specifically to each partner of end-customer needs. As such, our sales staff is often required to offer adjustments to our products to meet customers' precise requirements, or to work closely with our design and development team in order to make specific additional adjustments to design a product that is best suited for the customer.

***Revenues***

Our revenues for the period ended December 31, 2022 were $2,504,896, representing an increase of $429,141, or 21%, compared to $2,075,755 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in sales to existing and new customers mainly in the United Kingdom and in the United States during the year ended December 31, 2022, including as a result of certain of our products reaching maturity and validation among customers.

***Cost of Revenues***

 ****

Our cost of revenues for the period ended December 31, 2022 was $1,722,104 representing an increase of $615,657 or 56%, compared to $1,106,447 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in production costs and the cost of certain components.

***Gross Profit***

Our gross profit for the period ended December 31, 2022 was $782,792, representing a decrease of $186,516 or 19%, compared to $969,308 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the increase in the Company's sales to our distributer in the United Kingdom, which the rate of gross profit from sales to such distributer is lower than the rate of gross profit from direct sales to the Company's customers, and to the increase in the cost of critical components due to supply chain issues related to COVID-19.

***Research and Development Expenses***

Our net research and development expenses for the period ended December 31, 2022 were $1,021,869, representing an increase of $315,848 or 45%, compared to $706,021 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily a result of our investments in the development of our new line of products.

***Sales and Marketing Expenses***

Our sales and marketing expenses were $604,114 for the year ended December 31, 2022, representing an increase of $363,000 or 151%, compared to $241,114 for the period ended December 31, 2021. The increase is mainly attributable to the significant increase in our marketing efforts, mainly in new territories, such as the United States, expenses related to the recruitment of senior key personnel and other marketing-related expenses, such as attending exhibitions*.*

***General and Administrative Expenses***

Our general and administrative expenses were $2,840,660 for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $2,245,586 or 377%, compared to $595,074 for the period ended December 31, 2021. The increase is mainly attributable to increases in (i) legal expenses, accountants fees, directors' fees and other expenses associated with the completion of the IPO and the listing on Nasdaq and (ii) expenses related to the recruitment of senior key personnel.

***Operating Loss***

As a result of the foregoing, our operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $3,683,851, compared to an operating loss of $572,901 for the period ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $3,110,950 or 543%.

***Financial Expense and Income***

Financial expense and income consist of bank fees and other transactional costs, exchange rate differences and the revaluation of outstanding warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares.

We recognized net financial expenses of $4,495 for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to net financial expenses of $251,323 for the period ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of 246,828, or 98%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the repayment of bank loans in the beginning of 2022.

***Total Loss***

 ****

As a result of the foregoing, our total loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $3,688,346, compared to $824,224 for the period ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $2,864,122 or 347%.

***Impact of COVID-19***

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide, placed constraints on the operations of businesses, decreased consumer mobility and activity, and caused significant economic volatility in the United States, Israel and international capital markets. We have followed guidance issued by the United States and Israeli governments and the other local governments in territories in which we operate to protect our employees.

In addition, and most importantly, the electronics components shortage crisis, a unique result of the COVID-19 pandemic which affected our market segment, has increased the lead time to obtain and the purchase prices of the component parts required for certain of our products, which has also negatively impacted the delivery time of our products to customers and our revenues and profitability. As long as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the components' lead time may be longer than normal and shortage in components may continue or get worse.

The Company maintains a comprehensive network of world-wide suppliers. In order to mitigate such risks, in cases where certain components are purchased from single source manufacturers, the Company has adjusted and modified it designs based on different components from different suppliers, to allow for more versatility and flexibility.

We cannot predict the other future potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business or operations, and there is no guarantee that any near-term trends in our results of operations will continue, particularly if the COVID-19 pandemic and the adverse consequences thereof return. Additional waves of infections, a continuation of the current environment, or any further adverse impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic could further impact employment rates and the economy, affecting our consumer base and divert consumers' discretionary income to other uses, including for essential items. These events could impact our cash flows, results of operations and financial conditions and heighten many of the other risks described in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

**B. Liquidity and Capital Resources**

**Overview**

Since our inception we have funded our operations principally from bank loans, issuance of Ordinary Shares, approximately $1,500,000 from the issuance of Preferred Shares and warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares, approximately $17,800,000, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before offering expenses, in the IPO, and $1,088,250 from long-term loans from shareholders. We have incurred losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since our inception.

As of December 31, 2022, we had $255,530 in cash and cash equivalents and $9,084,082 in short-term bank's deposits. Upon the closing of our IPO in February 2022, we received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $17.8 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before offering expenses.

The table below summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the Year Ended<br> December 31,** | **For the Year Ended<br> December 31,** |
| <br>**U.S. dollars** | **2022** | **2021** |
| Net cash used in operating activities | $(4857027) | $(875002) |
| Net cash used in investing activities | (9304593) | (29424) |
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 14368024 | 899181 |
| Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $206404 | $(5245) |

---

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception and have relied on our ability to fund our operations primarily through proceeds from sales of Ordinary Shares and long-term loans from shareholders.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had a working capital of $10,442,953 and a working capital deficit of $994,850, respectively; an accumulated deficit of $8,192,527 and $4,504,181, respectively; and negative cash flow from operating activity of $4,857,027 and $875,002, respectively. We anticipate that such losses will continue until our new products reach commercial profitability. If we are unable to successfully commercialize our product candidates and reach profitability or obtain sufficient future financing through debt or issuance of equity, we will be required to delay some of our planned research and development programs.

Our backlog as of January 1, 2023 was approximately $1.9 million. As of March 6, 2023, our backlog was approximately $2.6 million major part of which is expected to be delivered and be recognized as revenues by the end of 2023, and the remainder during 2024. Our backlog increased significantly compared to previous years. We define backlog as the accumulation of all pending orders with a later fulfillment date for which revenue has not been recognized and we consider valid. Most of our backlog is comprised of executed purchase orders from high rated leading customers in the defense industries, also referred to as "triple A customers", customers with which we have had long-standing relationships and governmental agencies. The increase in backlog and sales is a result of the Company's products reaching maturity and validation among our customers. Our management estimates that such sales will continue in the coming year. However, because revenue will not be recognized until we have fulfilled our obligations to a customer, there may be a significant amount of time between executing an agreement or purchase order with a customer and delivery of the product to the customer and revenue recognition. In addition, backlog is not necessarily indicative of future earnings (see "Item 3.D. Risk Factors - Risks Related to Our Business, Industry, Operations and Financial Condition - Amounts included in backlog may not result in actual revenue and are an uncertain indicator of our future earnings" for further information).

In addition, on March 24, 2021, we entered into a share purchase agreement, which was amended and restated on April 27, 2021 and August 4, 2021, as amended and restated, the March 2021 SPA, pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of 489,812 Preferred Shares, to certain investors, or the March 2021 Investors, in a private placement, or the March 2021 Private Placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.5 million. These Preferred Shares were converted into an equal number of Ordinary Shares in connection with the closing of the IPO. The March 2021 Investors also received warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 489,812 Ordinary Shares. Such warrants will be exercisable until March 24, 2026, at an exercise price of $6.1248 per Ordinary Share.

As of December 31, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were $255,530 and our short-term bank deposit were $9,084,082. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents and our short-term bank deposit as of December 31, 2022 will be sufficient to fund our current operations and satisfy our obligations for the next twelve months. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. Our operating plans may change as a result of many factors that may currently be unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

● the progress and costs of our research and development activities;

● the costs of manufacturing our products;

● the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

● the potential costs of contracting with third parties to provide marketing and distribution services for us or for building such capacities internally; and

● the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses.

**Operating Activities**

Cash used in operating activities mainly consists of our net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including share-based compensation, depreciation expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities during each period.

Net cash used in operating activities was $4,857,027 during the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $875,002 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to net loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 of $3,688,346, an increase of $1,035,013 in trade receivables due to completion of large orders and revenue recognition before the year end, increase in other receivable due to completion of milestones of certain NRE agreements, and an increase of $590,245 in inventory due to fulfillment of outstanding orders during the year, partially offset by an increase of $640,317 in trade payables and other current liabilities as a result of future payments that should be made to suppliers and other service providers.

**Investing Activities**

Net cash used by investing activities was $9,304,593 for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $29,424 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is mainly attributable to the investment of the proceeds from the IPO in short-term bank deposits.

**Financing Activities**

Net cash provided by financing activities was $14,368,024 for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $899,181 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is mainly attributable to proceeds received from the IPO.

**Financial Arrangements**

Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through proceeds from sales of Ordinary Shares, Preferred Shares, warrants, credit lines and long-term loans from banks and shareholders.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received long term loans from banks in total amount of NIS 0.65 million (approximately $0.18 million), which loans carry an annual interest of 3.1%,

During the year ended December 31, 2020, we issued an aggregate of 3,084,664 Ordinary Shares as consideration for the conversion of NIS 3,756,944 (approximately $1,078,808) owed to Mr. Bar and Mr. Gottlieb.

On March 24, 2021, we issued an aggregate of 489,812 Preferred Shares to the March 2021 Investors for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.5 million pursuant to the March 2021 SPA. Following the completion of the IPO, all Preferred Shares were automatically converted into 489,812 Ordinary Shares.

The March 2021 Investors also received warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 489,812 Ordinary Shares. Such warrants are exercisable until March 24, 2026, at an exercise price of $6.1248 per Ordinary Share.

On May 9, 2021, we entered into a loan facility agreement, or, as amended on June 30, 2021, the Loan Facility Agreement, effective as of January 1, 2021, with Israel Bar, our Chief Executive Officer, director and our largest shareholder, and Joseph Gottlieb, another director and our second largest shareholder.

We also agreed to reimburse Mr. Bar and Mr. Gottlieb for any costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Facility Agreement, if required. On March 2, 2023, we entered into an amendment, or the Amendment, to the Loan Facility Agreement, pursuant to which we (i) amended the repayment terms set in the Loan Facility Agreement to provide that the amounts outstanding under the Loan Facility Agreement shall be due and payable in 24 equal monthly payments, commencing on February 4, 2024, subject to the availability of available free cash (as defined in the Amendment) of the Company and (ii) clarified that the total amount due to Mr. Gottlieb under the Loan Agreement is NIS 1,020,347 (approximately $317,371). The total outstanding amount under the Loan Facility Agreement after giving effect to the Amendment was NIS 3,480,305.88 (approximately $1,088,250).

On June 16, 2021, we executed a credit line, providing us with a line of credit, or the Credit Line, in the aggregate amount of up to NIS 400,000 (approximately $121,501) from Bank Mizrahi Tefahot. Mr. Israel Bar, our Chief Executive Officer and director provided a personal guarantee to the Credit Line.

We have also issued several debentures, including: (i) a debenture issued on September 8, 2020 to Bank Leumi for all outstanding and future funds as well as all considerations, fruits, incomes and rights, at Company's bank account in Bank Leumi up to the amount of NIS 300,000 (approximately $90,917); and (ii) a debenture issued on July 6, 2021 to Bank Mizrahi Tefahot to guarantee Company's credit and all funds and deposits in Company account up to the amount of NIS 200,000 (approximately $60,611).

On December 23, 2021, we entered into a loan agreement with Yaad Consulting and Management Services (1995) Ltd., one of our minority shareholders, pursuant to which it loaned to the Company $200,000, at an annual interest rate equal to 4% and such loan with any accrued interest is due and payable (i) in full two business days following the receipt of funds in Israel from the closing of an initial public offering of the Company or (ii) if no initial public offering is closed by December 31, 2024, in three (3) equal annual installments beginning January 1, 2025. The loan was repaid in full in February 2022.

During February and May 2022, we repaid our liabilities to banks and one of our shareholders, Yaad Consulting and Management Services (1995) Ltd., in the total amount of approximately $1.4 million. As a result, personal guarantees, debenture and collateral securing certain of those loans were released.

On February 4, 2022, we closed the IPO of (i) 3,690,477 Units, each consisting of one Ordinary Shares, and one warrant to purchase one ordinary share, and (ii) 10,000 Pre-Funded Units, each consisting of one Pre-Funded Warrants to one ordinary share and one Warrant, to those purchasers whose purchase of Units in the IPO would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or 9.99% in certain circumstances) of the outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of the IPO. The Units were sold at an IPO price of $4.20 per Unit and the Pre-Funded Units were sold at an IPO price of $4.199 per Pre-Funded Unit.

The Ordinary Shares and Warrants were approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market and commenced trading under the symbol "MTEK" and "MTEKW", respectively, on February 2, 2022.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We have headquarters which are located at 2 Yitzhak Modai St. Rehovot, Israel. This facility comprises approximately 566 square meters of office space. Our current lease, which we entered into on November 2021 currently expires in November 2024, with an option to extend the lease on the same terms for an additional three years. In order to support our future growth, during 2022 we expanded our office space an additional 214 square meters under the same terms of our current lease agreement. Our monthly rent payment as of December 31, 2022, was approximately NIS 38,760 (approximately $11,014).

We had entered into several research and development programs, pursuant to which we received grants from the IIA. With respect to such grants, in some cases, we are committed to pay royalties at a rate of 3% to 5% on sales proceeds from our products that were developed under IIA programs up to the total amount of grants received, linked to the U.S. dollar and bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR applicable to U.S. dollar deposits. In August 2022, we received approval for a joint grant with Ben Gurion University, Be'er Sheva, Israel, from the IIA for the joint development of AI and machine learning (ML) based system for detecting, diagnosing and predicting faults and malfunction in drones. The total approved budget we received for the first year of the joint project amounts to NIS 1,314,024 (approximately $373,408). The grant represents 66% of the total budget for the first year of the project. The total amount of grants received as of December 31, 2022, was approximately $396,575 (including accumulated interest).

We do not believe that off-balance sheet arrangements and commitments are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

**C. Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.**

For a description of our research and development programs and the amounts that we have incurred over the last two years pursuant to those programs, please see "Item 5.A. Operating Results- Operating Expenses- Research and Development Expenses, net" and "Item 5.A. Results of Operations- Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2022, to the year ended December 31, 2021- Research and Development Expenses, net."

**D. Trend information**

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted companies in Israel and around the world, and as its trajectory remains highly uncertain, we cannot predict the duration and severity of the outbreak and its containment measures. Further, we cannot predict impacts, trends and uncertainties involving the pandemic's effects on economic activity, the size of our labor force, our third-party partners, our investments in marketable securities, and the extent to which our revenue, income, profitability, liquidity, or capital resources may be materially and adversely affected. See also "Item 3.D. - Risk Factors- We face business disruption and related risks resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations."

**E. Critical Accounting Estimates**

We describe our significant accounting policies more fully in Note 2 to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 20-F. We believe that the accounting policies described below and in Note 2 to our financial statements are critical in order to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. At the time of the preparation of the financial statements, our management is required to use estimates, evaluations, and assumptions which affect the application of the accounting policy and the amounts reported for assets, obligations, income, and expenses. Any estimates and assumptions are continually reviewed. The changes to the accounting estimates are credited during the period in which the change to the estimate is made.

***Revenue Recognition***

We determine the appropriate revenue recognition for our contracts with customers by analyzing the type, terms and conditions of each contract. We classify the revenue components as products according to the attributes of the underlying components.

Our contract payment terms typically range between 30 and 150 days. We assess collectability based on several factors, including collection history.

***Inventory Provision***

 ****

Inventory write-offs are provided to cover risks arising from slow moving items or technological obsolescence. Reserves for potentially excess and obsolete inventory are made based on management's analysis of inventory levels, future sales forecasts. Once established, the original cost of our inventory less the related inventory reserve represents the new cost basis of such products.

**Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements** 

 ****

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Our management believes that the estimates, judgment and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgment and assumptions can affect reported amounts and disclosures made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Financial statement in U.S. dollars**

 ****

The functional currency of our business is the U.S. dollar, since the dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which we have operated and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future.

Transactions and balances denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances denominated in foreign currencies have been re-measured to dollars in accordance with the provisions of ASC 830-10, "Foreign Currency Translation."

All transaction gains and losses from re-measurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.

**Fair value of financial instruments**

 ****

The Company's financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, short-term interest-bearing investments, accounts receivable, restricted deposits for employee benefits, accounts payable and short-term and long-term loans.

The Company, in estimating fair value for financial instruments, determined that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, short-term bank credit, trade payables and long-term loans from shareholders are equivalent are equivalent to, or approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of variable interest rate long-term loans are equivalent or approximate to their fair value as they bear interest at approximate market rates. The liabilities include long-term loan, that does not bear any interest.

benefits may include, to the extent applicable to the executive, payments, contributions and/or allocations for savings funds, education
funds (referred to in Hebrew as "Keren Hishtalmut"), pension, severance, risk insurances (e.g., life or work disability insurance)
and payments for social security

E***mployment or Service Agreements with Executive Officers***

 ****

We have entered into written employment or service agreements with each of our executive officers. All of these agreements contain customary provisions regarding noncompetition, confidentiality of information and assignment of inventions. However, the enforceability of the noncompetition provisions may be limited under applicable law. In addition, we have entered into our standard form of indemnification agreement, in the form filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 20-F, with each of our directors and members of our senior management. Each such indemnification agreement provides the indemnified person with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance or other indemnification agreement. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

For a description of the terms of our options and option plans, see "Management - Share Option Plan" below.

***Service Agreements with Non-Executive Directors***

 ****

We have entered into written service agreements with each of our non-executive directors. Such director service contracts set out the key terms and conditions of the director's appointment, including their compensation for services as members of the board of director, duties, rights and responsibilities, time commitment and the board of directors' expectations regarding involvement with committees of the board of directors.

***Differences between the Companies Law and Nasdaq Listing Rules***

 ****

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as related rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, require foreign private issuers, such as us, to comply with various corporate governance practices. In addition, following the listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Under those rules, we may elect to follow certain corporate governance practices permitted under the Companies Law in lieu of compliance with corresponding corporate governance requirements otherwise imposed by the Nasdaq Listing Rules for U.S. domestic issuers.

In accordance with Israeli law and practice and subject to the exemption set forth in Rule 5615 of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we have elected to follow the provisions of the Companies Law, rather than the Nasdaq Listing Rules, with respect to the following requirements:

● Quorum. While the Nasdaq Listing Rules require that the quorum for purposes of any meeting of the holders of a listed company's common voting stock, as specified in the company's bylaws, be no less than 33 1/3% of the company's outstanding common voting stock, under Israeli law, a company is entitled to determine in its articles of association the number of shareholders and percentage of holdings required for a quorum at a shareholders meeting. The Companies Law provides that a quorum of two or more shareholders holding at least 25% of the voting rights in person or by proxy is required for commencement of business at a general meeting. However, the quorum set forth in our articles of association with respect to an adjourned meeting consists of at least one shareholders present in person or by proxy.

*●* *Nomination of our directors.* Our directors are elected by the general meeting of our shareholders and, unless appointed for a shorter term, serve in office until the third annual general meeting after the general meeting in which such director was appointed, in which such later annual general meeting the directors will be brought for re-election or replacement. The nominations for directors, which are presented to our shareholders by our board of directors, are generally made by the board of directors itself, in accordance with the provisions of our articles of association and the Companies Law. Nominations need not be made by a nominating committee of our board of directors consisting solely of independent directors, as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

*●* *Compensation of officers.* Israeli law and our articles of association do not require that the independent members of our board of directors (or a compensation committee composed solely of independent members of our board of directors) determine an executive officer's compensation, as is generally required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules with respect to the chief executive officer and all other executive officers. Instead, compensation of executive officers is determined and approved by our compensation committee and our board of directors, and in certain circumstances by our shareholders, either in consistency with our office holder compensation policy or, in special circumstances in deviation therefrom, taking into account certain considerations stated in the Companies Law (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law" for additional information).

● *Shareholder approval.* We will seek shareholder approval for all corporate actions requiring such approval under the requirements of the Companies Law, rather than seeking approval for corporation actions in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. In particular, under this Nasdaq listing rule, shareholder approval is generally required for: (i) an acquisition of shares/assets of another company that involves the issuance of 20% or more of the acquirer's shares or voting rights or if a director, officer or 5% shareholder has greater than a 5% interest in the target company or the consideration to be received; (ii) the issuance of shares leading to a change of control; (iii) adoption/amendment of equity compensation arrangements (although under the provisions of the Companies Law there is no requirement for shareholder approval for the adoption/amendment of the equity compensation plan); and (iv) issuances of 20% or more of the shares or voting rights (including securities convertible into, or exercisable for, equity) of a listed company via a private placement (and/or via sales by directors/officers/5% shareholders) if such equity is issued (or sold) at below the greater of the book or market value of shares. By contrast, under the Companies Law, shareholder approval is required for, among other things: (i) transactions with directors concerning the terms of their service or indemnification, exemption and insurance for their service (or for any other position that they may hold at a company), for which approvals of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders are all required, (ii) extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders of publicly held companies, which require the special approval, and (iii) terms of employment or other engagement of the controlling shareholder of us or such controlling shareholder's relative, which require special approval. In addition, under the Companies Law, a merger requires approval of the shareholders of each of the merging companies.

● *Approval of Related Party Transactions*. All related party transactions are approved in accordance with the requirements and procedures for approval of interested party acts and transaction as set forth in the Companies Law, which requires the approval of the audit committee, or the compensation committee, as the case may be, the board of directors and shareholders, as may be applicable, for specified transactions, rather than approval by the audit committee or other independent body of our board of directors as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law" for additional information).

● *Annual Shareholders Meeting.* As opposed to the Nasdaq listing Rule 5620(a), which mandates that a listed company hold its annual shareholders meeting within one year of the company's fiscal year-end, we are required, under the Companies Law, to hold an annual shareholder meeting each calendar year and within 15 months of the last annual shareholders meeting.

*●* *Distribution of periodic reports to shareholders; proxy solicitation.* As opposed to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, which require listed issuers to make such reports available to shareholders in one of a number of specific manners, Israeli law does not require us to distribute periodic reports directly to shareholders, and the generally accepted business practice in Israel is not to distribute such reports to shareholders but to make such reports available through a public website. In addition to making such reports available on a public website, we currently make our audited financial statements available to our shareholders at our offices and will only mail such reports to shareholders upon request. As a foreign private issuer, we are generally exempt from the SEC's proxy solicitation rules.

**C. Board Practices**

**Introduction**

Our board of directors presently consists of five members. Effective as of March 2, 2023, Amitay Weiss serves as the Chairman of our board of directors. We believe that Amitay Weiss, Isabela Marshak and Naama Falach Avrahamy are "independent" for purposes of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and SEC rules and regulations. Our articles of association provide that unless otherwise determined by the general meeting of shareholders, the number of directors serving on the board of directors will be no less than three and no more than twelve, including External Directors (if applicable), which will be elected if and as required under the Companies Law, as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Companies Law, the management of our business is vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powers and may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to management. Our executive officers are responsible for our day-to-day management and have individual responsibilities established by our board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, our board of directors, subject to the employment agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are appointed by our Chief Executive Officer. Their terms of employment are subject to the approval of the board of directors' compensation committee and of the board of directors and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment agreements that we may enter into with them, and are subject to the Company's compensation policy.

Our articles of association provide for a split of the board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms (excluding External Directors, if applicable). At each annual general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors of that class of directors will be for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election, such that each year the term of office of only one class of directors will expire. The director whom is to be retired and re-elected shall be the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election or, if more than one director served the longest time, or if a director who is not to be re-elected agrees to be re-elected, the meeting of the board of directors which sets the date and agenda for the annual general meeting (acting by a simple majority) will decide which of such directors will be brought for re-election at the relevant general meeting.

Under the Companies Law, our board of directors must determine the minimum number of directors who are required to have accounting and financial expertise. In determining the number of directors required to have such expertise, our board of directors must consider, among other things, the type and size of the company and the scope and complexity of its operations. Our board of directors has determined that the minimum number of directors of our company who are required to have accounting and financial expertise is one.

The board of directors must elect one director to serve as the chairman of the board of directors to preside at the meetings of the board of directors, and may also remove that director as chairman. Pursuant to the Companies Law, neither the chief executive officer nor any of his or her relatives is permitted to serve as the chairman of the board of directors, and a company may not vest the chairman or any of his or her relatives with the chief executive officer's authorities. In addition, a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer may not serve as the chairman of the board of directors; the chairman may not be vested with authorities of a person who reports, directly or indirectly, to the chief executive officer; and the chairman may not serve in any other position in the company or a controlled company, but he or she may serve as a director or chairman of a controlled company. However, the Companies Law permits a company's shareholders to determine, for a period not exceeding three years from each such determination, that the chairman or his or her relative may serve as chief executive officer or be vested with the chief executive officer's authorities, and that the chief executive officer or his or her relative may serve as chairman or be vested with the chairman's authorities. Such determination of a company's shareholders requires either: (1) the approval of at least a majority of the shares of those shareholders present and voting on the matter (other than controlling shareholders and those having a personal interest in the determination) (shares held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or (2) that the total number of shares opposing such determination does not exceed 2% of the total voting power in the company. Currently, we have a separate chairman and chief executive officer.

The board of directors may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, delegate any or all of its powers to committees of the board, and it may, from time to time, revoke such delegation or alter the composition of any such committees, subject to certain limitations. Unless otherwise expressly provided by the board of directors, the committees shall not be empowered to further delegate such powers. The composition and duties of our audit committee, financial statement examination committee and compensation committee are described below.

The board of directors oversees how management monitors compliance with our risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by us. The board of directors is assisted in its oversight role by an internal auditor. The internal auditor undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to our audit committee.

**External Directors**

Under the Companies Law, an Israeli company whose shares have been offered to the public or whose shares are listed for trading on a stock exchange in or outside of Israel is required to appoint at least two external directors, or External Directors, to serve on its board of directors. External Directors must meet stringent standards of independence. As of the date hereof, Amitay Weiss and Naama Falach Avrahamy meet the criteria for external directors. However, the Company adopted the exemption for appointment of external directors, as further specified below.

Under regulations promulgated pursuant to the Companies Law, a company with no controlling shareholder whose shares are listed for trading on specified exchanges outside of Israel, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, may adopt exemptions from various corporate governance requirements of the Companies Law, so long as such company satisfies the requirements of applicable foreign country laws and regulations, including applicable stock exchange rules, that apply to companies organized in that country and relating to the appointment of independent directors and the composition of audit and compensation committees. Such exemptions include an exemption from the requirement to appoint external directors and the requirement that an external director be a member of certain committees, as well as exemption from limitations on directors' compensation. We chose to use such exemptions.

***Independent Directors Under the Companies Law***

 ****

An "independent director" is either an external director or a director who meets the same non-affiliation criteria as an external director (except for (i) the requirement that the director be an Israeli resident (which does not apply to companies such as ours whose securities have been offered outside of Israel or are listed outside of Israel) and (ii) the requirement for accounting and financial expertise or professional qualifications), as determined by the audit committee, and who has not served as a director of the company for more than nine consecutive years. For these purposes, ceasing to serve as a director for a period of two years or less would not be deemed to sever the consecutive nature of such director's service.

Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Companies Law provide that a director in a public company whose shares are listed for trading on specified exchanges outside of Israel, including Nasdaq, who qualifies as an independent director under the relevant non-Israeli rules and who meets certain non-affiliation criteria, which are less stringent than those applicable to independent directors as set forth above, would be deemed an "independent" director pursuant to the Companies Law provided: (i) he or she has not served as a director for more than nine consecutive years; (ii) he or she has been approved as such by the audit committee; and (iii) his or her remuneration shall be in accordance with the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder. For these purposes, ceasing to serve as a director for a period of two years or less would not be deemed to sever the consecutive nature of such director's service.

Furthermore, pursuant to these regulations, such company may reappoint a person as an independent director for additional terms, beyond nine years, which do not exceed three years each, if each of the audit committee and the board of directors determine, in that order, that in light of the independent director's expertise and special contribution to the board of directors and its committees, the reappointment for an additional term is in the company's best interest.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

Our board of directors has established two standing committees, the audit and financial statement examination committee and the compensation committee.

***Audit Committee***

 ****

Under the Companies Law, we are required to appoint an audit committee, to which the following will not be able to be appointed: the chairman of the board; any director employed by the company or employed by a controlling shareholder or by a corporation controlled by such controlling shareholder; a director who provides services, regularly, to the company, to a controlling shareholder of the Company or to an entity controlled by a controlling shareholder of the Company; a director who derives most of his or her income from a controlling shareholder of the Company; and a controlling shareholder of the company or a relative of a controlling shareholder.

Under regulations promulgated pursuant to the Companies Law, a company with no controlling shareholder whose shares are listed for trading outside of Israel, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, may adopt exemptions from various corporate governance requirements of the Companies Law, so long as such company satisfies the requirements of applicable foreign country laws and regulations, including applicable stock exchange rules, that apply to companies organized in that country and relating to the appointment of independent directors and the composition of audit and compensation committees. Such exemptions include, among others, an exemption from the prohibition to appoint the individuals listed above as members of the audit committee. The Company chose to adopt such exemptions.

Our audit committee is composed of Amitay Weiss, Isabela Marshak and Naama Falach Avrahamy.

Under the Companies Law, our audit committee is responsible for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) determining whether there are deficiencies in the business management practices of our company, and making recommendations to the board of directors to improve such practices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) determining whether to approve certain related party transactions (including transactions in which an office holder has a personal interest and whether such transaction is extraordinary or material under Companies Law) and establishing the approval process for certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli law");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) determining the approval process for transactions that are "non-negligible" (i.e., transactions with a controlling shareholder that are classified by the audit committee as non-negligible, even though they are not deemed extraordinary transactions), as well as determining which types of transactions would require the approval of the audit committee, optionally based on criteria which may be determined annually in advance by the audit committee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) examining our internal controls and internal auditor's performance, including whether the internal auditor has sufficient resources and tools to dispose of its responsibilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) examining the scope of our auditor's work and compensation and submitting a recommendation with respect thereto to our board of directors or shareholders, depending on which of them is considering the appointment of our auditor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) establishing procedures for the handling of employees' complaints as to deficiencies in the management of our business and the protection to be provided to such employees; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) where the board of directors approves the working plan of the internal auditor, examining such working plan before its submission to the board of directors and proposing amendments thereto.

Our audit committee may not conduct any discussions or approve any actions requiring its approval (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli law"), unless at the time of the approval a majority of the committee's members are present, which majority consists of independent directors under the Companies Law, including at least one external director.

Our board of directors adopted an audit committee charter setting forth, among others, the responsibilities of the audit committee consistent with the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq Listing Rules (in addition to the requirements for such committee under the Companies Law), including, among others, the following:

● oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm and recommending the engagement, compensation or termination of engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm to the board of directors in accordance with Israeli law;

● recommending the engagement or termination of the person filling the office of our internal auditor, reviewing the services provided by our internal auditor and reviewing effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting;

● recommending the terms of audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm for pre-approval by our board of directors; and

● reviewing and monitoring, if applicable, legal matters with significant impact, finding of regulatory authorities' findings, receive reports regarding irregularities and legal compliance, acting according to "whistleblower policy" and recommend to our board of directors if so required.

***Nasdaq Listing Rules for Audit Committee***

 ****

Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we are required to maintain an audit committee consisting of at least three members, all of whom are independent and are financially literate and one of whom has accounting or related financial management expertise.

As noted above, the members of our audit committee include Amitay Weiss, Isabela Marshak and Naama Falach Avrahamy, all of whom are "independent directors," as such term is defined under Nasdaq Listing Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Until February 28, 2023, Amitay Weiss served as the chairman of our audit committee. Effective as of March 1, 2023, Naama Falach Avrahamy serves as the chairman of our audit committee. All members of our audit committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Our board of directors has determined that each member of our audit committee is an audit committee financial expert as defined by the SEC rules and has the requisite financial experience as defined by the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Under the Companies Law, our audit committee also carries out the duties of a financial statement examination committee. As such, the audit committee is responsible for: (i) estimations and assessments made in connection with the preparation of financial statements; (ii) internal controls related to the financial statements; (iii) completeness and propriety of the disclosure in the financial statements; (iv) the accounting policies adopted and the accounting treatments implemented in material matters of the company; and (v) value evaluations, including the assumptions and assessments on which evaluations are based and the supporting data in the financial statements.

***Compensation Committee***

 ****

The board of directors of any public company must establish a compensation committee. Our compensation committee, acting pursuant to a written charter, consists of Amitay Weiss, Isabela Marshak and Naama Falach Avrahamy. Naama Falach Avrahamy serves as the chairman of our compensation committee.

Our compensation committee reviews and recommends to our board of directors, with respect to our executive officers and directors: (1) annual base compensation (2) annual incentive bonus, including the specific goals and amounts; (3) equity compensation; (4) employment agreements, severance arrangements, and change in control agreements and provisions; (5) retirement grants and/or retirement bonuses; and (6) any other benefits, compensation, compensation policies or arrangements.

The duties of the compensation committee include the recommendation to the company's board of directors of a policy regarding the terms of engagement of office holders, to which we refer as a compensation policy. Such policy must be adopted by the company's board of directors, after considering the recommendations of the compensation committee. The compensation policy is then brought for approval by our shareholders, which requires a special majority (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli law"). Under the Companies Law, the board of directors may adopt the compensation policy if it is not approved by the shareholders, provided that after the shareholders oppose the approval of such policy, the compensation committee and the board of directors revisit the matter and determine that adopting the compensation policy would be in the best interests of the company.

The compensation policy must serve as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement of executive officers and directors, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment or obligation of payment in respect of employment or engagement. The compensation policy must relate to certain factors, including advancement of the company's objectives, the company's business and its long-term strategy, and creation of appropriate incentives for executives. It must also consider, among other things, the company's risk management, size and the nature of its operations. The compensation policy must furthermore consider the following additional factors:

● the education, skills, expertise and accomplishments of the relevant director or executive;

● the director's or executive's roles and responsibilities and prior compensation agreements with him or her;

● the relationship between the cost of the terms of service of an office holder and the average median compensation of the other employees of the company (including those employed through manpower companies), including the impact of disparities in salary upon work relationships in the company;

● the possibility of reducing variable compensation at the discretion of the board of directors; and the possibility of setting a limit on the exercise value of non-cash variable compensation; and

● as to severance compensation, the period of service of the director or executive, the terms of his or her compensation during such service period, the company's performance during that period of service, the person's contribution towards the company's achievement of its goals and the maximization of its profits, and the circumstances under which the person is leaving the company.

The compensation policy must also include the following principles:

● with the exception of office holders who report directly to the chief executive officer, the link between variable compensation and long-term performance and measurable criteria;

● the relationship between variable and fixed compensation, and the ceiling for the value of variable compensation at the time of its grant;

● the conditions under which a director or executive would be required to repay compensation paid to him or her if it was later shown that the data upon which such compensation was based was inaccurate and was required to be restated in the company's financial statements;

● the minimum holding or vesting period for variable, equity-based compensation; and

● maximum limits for severance compensation.

The compensation policy must also consider appropriate incentives from a long-term perspective.

The compensation committee is responsible for: (1) recommending the compensation policy to a company's board of directors for its approval (and subsequent approval by the shareholders); and (2) duties related to the compensation policy and to the compensation of a company's office holders, including:

● recommending whether a compensation policy should continue in effect, if the then-current policy has a term of greater than three years (approval of either a new compensation policy or the continuation of an existing compensation policy must in any case occur every three years);

● recommending to the board of directors periodic updates to the compensation policy;

● assessing implementation of the compensation policy;

● determining whether the terms of compensation of certain office holders of the company need not be brought to approval of the shareholders; and

● determining whether to approve the terms of compensation of office holders that require the committee's approval.

On June 21, 2022, the Company's shareholders approved our compensation policy for a term of five years. Our compensation policy designed to promote our long-term goals, work plan and policy, retain, motivate and incentivize our directors and executive officers, while considering the risks that our activities involve, our size, the nature and scope of our activities and the contribution of an officer to the achievement of our goals and maximization of profits, and align the interests of our directors and executive officers with our long-term performance. To that end, a portion of an executive officer compensation package is targeted to reflect our short and long-term goals, as well as the executive officer's individual performance. On the other hand, our compensation policy includes measures designed to reduce the executive officer's incentives to take excessive risks that may harm us in the long-term, such as limits on the value of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation, limitations on the ratio between the variable and the total compensation of an executive officer and minimum vesting periods for equity-based compensation.

Our compensation policy also addresses our executive officer's individual characteristics (such as his or her respective position, education, scope of responsibilities and contribution to the attainment of our goals) as the basis for compensation variation among our executive officers and considers the internal ratios between compensation of our executive officers and directors and other employees. Pursuant to our compensation policy, the compensation that may be granted to an executive officer may include base salary, annual bonuses, equity-based compensation, benefits and retirement and termination of service arrangements. All cash bonuses are limited to a maximum amount linked to the executive officer's base salary. In addition, our compensation policy provides for maximum permitted ratios between the total variable (cash bonuses and equity-based compensation) and non-variable (base salary) compensation components, in accordance with an officer's respective position with the company.

An annual cash bonus may be awarded to executive officers upon the attainment of pre-set periodic objectives and individual targets. The annual cash bonus that may be granted to executive officers other than our chairman or Chief Executive Officer may be based entirely on a discretionary evaluation. Our Chief Executive Officer will be entitled to recommend performance objectives to such executive officers, and such performance objectives will be approved by our compensation committee (and, if required by law, by our board of directors).

The performance measurable objectives of our chairman and Chief Executive Officer will be determined annually by our compensation committee and board of directors. A less significant portion of the chairman's and/or the Chief Executive Officer's annual cash bonus may be based on a discretionary evaluation of the chairman's or the Chief Executive Officer's respective overall performance by the compensation committee and the board of directors based on quantitative and qualitative criteria.

The equity-based compensation under our compensation policy for our executive officers (including members of our board of directors) is designed in a manner consistent with the underlying objectives in determining the base salary and the annual cash bonus, with its main objectives being to enhance the alignment between the executive officers' interests with our long-term interests and those of our shareholders and to strengthen the retention and the motivation of executive officers in the long term. Our compensation policy provides for executive officer compensation in the form of share options or other equity-based awards, such as restricted shares and phantom, options, in accordance with our share incentive plan then in place. Share options granted to executive officers shall be subject to vesting periods in order to promote long-term retention of the awarded executive officers. The equity-based compensation shall be granted from time to time and be individually determined and awarded according to the performance, educational background, prior business experience, qualifications, role and the personal responsibilities of the executive officer.

In addition, our compensation policy contains compensation recovery provisions which allows us under certain conditions to recover bonuses paid in excess, enables our Chief Executive Officer to approve an immaterial change in the terms of employment of an executive officer (provided that the changes of the terms of employment are in accordance our compensation policy) and allows us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our executive officers and directors subject to certain limitations set forth thereto.

Our compensation policy also provides for compensation to the members of our board of directors in accordance with the amounts determined in our compensation policy.

**Internal Auditor** 

 ****

Under the Companies Law, the board of directors of an Israeli public company must appoint an internal auditor nominated by the audit committee. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, whether a company's actions comply with the law and proper business procedure. The audit committee is required to oversee the activities, and to assess the performance of the internal auditor as well as to review the internal auditor's work plan. An internal auditor may not be an interested party or office holder, or a relative of any interested party or office holder, and may not be a member of the company's independent accounting firm or its representative. The Companies Law defines an interested party as a holder of 5% or more of the outstanding shares or voting rights of a company, any person or entity that has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager of the company or any person who serves as a director or as the general manager of a company.

On February 21, 2022, our board of directors appointed Doron Rozenblum as our internal auditor. Our internal auditor is not an employee of the Company.

**Remuneration of Directors**

 ****

Under the Companies Law, remuneration of directors is subject to the approval of the compensation committee, thereafter by the board of directors and thereafter, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, by the general meeting of the shareholders. Where the director is also a controlling shareholder, the requirements for approval of transactions with controlling shareholders apply.

**Fiduciary Duties of Office Holders**

 ****

The Companies Law imposes a duty of care and a duty of loyalty on all office holders of a company.

The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level of care with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of care of an office holder includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain:

● information on the advisability of a given action brought for his approval or performed by him by virtue of his position; and

● all other important information pertaining to these actions.

The duty of loyalty of an office holder requires an office holder to act in good faith and for the benefit of the company, and includes a duty to:

● refrain from any conflict of interest between the performance of his duties in the company and his performance of his other duties or personal affairs;

● refrain from any action that is competitive with the company's business;

● refrain from exploiting any business opportunity of the company to receive a personal gain for himself or others; and

● disclose to the company any information or documents relating to the company's affairs which the office holder has received due to his position as an office holder.

**Insurance**

Under the Companies Law, a company may obtain insurance for any of its office holders against the following liabilities incurred due to acts he or she performed as an office holder, if and to the extent provided for in the company's articles of association:

● breach of his or her duty of care to the company or to another person, to the extent such a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;

● a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable cause to assume that his or her act would not prejudice the company's interests; and

● a financial liability imposed upon him or her in favor of another person.

We currently have directors' and officers' liability insurance, providing total coverage of $5.0 million for the benefit of all of our directors and officers, in respect of which we paid a seventeen-month premium of approximately $351,781, which expires on May 13, 2024.

**Indemnification**

 ****

The Companies Law provide that a company may indemnify an office holder against the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision authorizing such indemnification:

● a financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person by any judgment concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office holder, including a settlement or arbitrator's award approved by a court;

● reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys' fees, expended by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (1) no indictment (as defined in the Companies Law) was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (2) no financial liability as a substitute for the criminal proceeding (as defined in the Companies Law) was imposed upon him or her as a result of such investigation or proceeding, or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; or (b) in connection with a monetary sanction; and

● reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys' fees, expended by the office holder or imposed on him or her by a court: (1) in proceedings that the company institutes, or that another person institutes on the company's behalf, against him or her; (2) in a criminal proceeding of which he or she was acquitted; or (3) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal intent.

The Companies Law also permits a company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, provided that if such indemnification relates to financial liability imposed on him or her, as described above, then the undertaking should be limited and shall detail the following foreseen events and amount or criterion:

● to events that in the opinion of the board of directors can be foreseen based on the company's activities at the time that the undertaking to indemnify is made; and

● in amount or criterion determined by the board of directors, at the time of the giving of such undertaking to indemnify, to be reasonable under the circumstances.

We have entered into our standard form of indemnification agreement, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 20-F, with each of our directors and members of our senior management. Each such indemnification agreement provides the indemnified person with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by directors and officers insurance or other indemnification agreement.

**Exculpation**

Under the Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exculpate in advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care (other than in relation to distributions), but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our articles of association provide that we may exculpate, in whole or in part, any office holder from liability to us for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care, but prohibit an exculpation from liability arising from a company's transaction in which our controlling shareholder or officer has a personal interest. Subject to the aforesaid limitations, and to other limitations detailed in the indemnification agreement, we exculpate and release our office holders from any and all liability to us related to any breach by them of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law.

**Limitations**

 ****

The Companies Law provides that we may not exculpate or indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any liability incurred as a result of any of the following: (1) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty unless (in the case of indemnity or insurance only, but not exculpation) the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice us; (2) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the breach was carried out intentionally or recklessly (as opposed to merely negligently); (3) any act or omission committed with the intent to derive an illegal personal benefit; or (4) any fine, monetary sanction, penalty or forfeit levied against the office holder.

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders.

Our articles of association permit us to exculpate (subject to the aforesaid limitation), indemnify and ensure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by the Companies Law.

The foregoing descriptions summarize the material aspects and practices of our board of directors. For additional details, we also refer you to the full text of the Companies Law, as well as our articles of association, which are filed as exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 20-F, and are incorporated herein by reference.

There are no service contracts between us, on the one hand, and our directors in their capacity as directors, on the other hand, providing for benefits upon termination of service.

**Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law**

***General***

 

Under the Companies Law, we may approve an action by an office holder from which the office holder would otherwise have to refrain, as described above, if:

● the office holder acts in good faith and the act or its approval does not cause harm to the company; and

● the office holder disclosed the nature of his or her interest in the transaction (including any significant fact or document) to the company at a reasonable time before the company's approval of such matter.

***Disclosure of Personal Interests of an Office Holder***

 ****

The Companies Law requires that an office holder disclose to the company, promptly, and, in any event, not later than the board meeting at which the transaction is first discussed, any direct or indirect personal interest that he or she may have and all related material information known to him or her relating to any existing or proposed transaction by the company. If the transaction is an extraordinary transaction, the office holder must also disclose any personal interest held by:

● the office holder's relatives; or

● any corporation in which the office holder or his or her relatives holds 5% or more of the shares or voting rights, serves as a director or general manager or has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager.

An office holder is not, however, obliged to disclose a personal interest if it derives solely from the personal interest of his or her relative in a transaction that is not considered an extraordinary transaction. Under the Companies Law, an extraordinary transaction is a transaction:

● not in the ordinary course of business;

● not on market terms; or

● that is likely to have a material effect on the company's profitability, assets or liabilities.

The Companies Law does not specify to whom within us nor the manner in which required disclosures are to be made. We require our office holders to make such disclosures to our board of directors.

Under the Companies Law, once an office holder complies with the above disclosure requirement, the board of directors may approve a transaction between the company and an office holder, or a third party in which an office holder has a personal interest, unless the articles of association provide otherwise and provided that the transaction is in the company's interest. If the transaction is an extraordinary transaction in which an office holder has a personal interest, first the audit committee and then the board of directors, in that order, must approve the transaction. Under specific circumstances, shareholder approval may also be required. Generally, a person who has a personal interest in a matter which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee may not be present at such a meeting unless the chairman of the audit committee or board of directors (as applicable) determines that he or she should be present in order to present the transaction that is subject to approval. A director who has a personal interest in a transaction, which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee, may not be present at this meeting or vote on this matter, unless a majority of members of the board of directors or the audit committee, as the case may be, has a personal interest. If a majority of the board of directors has a personal interest, then shareholder approval is generally also required.

***Disclosure of Personal Interests of a Controlling Shareholder***

 ****

Under the Companies Law, the disclosure requirements that apply to an office holder also apply to a controlling shareholder of a public company. Extraordinary transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, including a private placement in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, as well as transactions for the provision of services whether directly or indirectly by a controlling shareholder or his or her relative, or a company such controlling shareholder controls, and transactions concerning the terms of engagement and compensation of a controlling shareholder or a controlling shareholder's relative, whether as an office holder or an employee, require the approval of the audit committee or the compensation committee, as the case may be, the board of directors and a majority of the shares voted by the shareholders of the company participating and voting on the matter in a shareholders' meeting. In addition, the shareholder approval must fulfill one of the following requirements:

● at least a majority of the shares held by shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction and are voting at the meeting must be voted in favor of approving the transaction, excluding abstentions; or

● the shares voted by shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction who vote against the transaction represent no more than 2% of the voting rights in the company.

In addition, any extraordinary transaction with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest with a term of more than three years requires the abovementioned approval every three years; however, such transactions not involving the receipt of services or compensation can be approved for a longer term, provided that the audit committee determines that such longer term is reasonable under the circumstances.

The Companies Law requires that every shareholder that participates, in person, by proxy or by voting instrument, in a vote regarding a transaction with a controlling shareholder, must indicate in advance or in the ballot whether or not that shareholder has a personal interest in the vote in question. Failure to so indicate will result in the invalidation of that shareholder's vote.

The term "controlling shareholder" is defined in the Companies Law as a shareholder with the ability to direct the activities of the company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if the shareholder holds 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint directors of the company or its general manager. In the context of a transaction involving a shareholder of the company, a controlling shareholder also includes a shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the company if no other shareholder holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the company. For this purpose, the holdings of all shareholders who have a personal interest in the same transaction will be aggregated.

***Approval of the Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers***

 ****

The compensation of, or an undertaking to indemnify, insure or exculpate, an office holder who is not the chief executive officer or a director requires the approval of the company's compensation committee, followed by the approval of the company's board of directors, and, if such compensation arrangement or an undertaking to indemnify, insure or exculpate is inconsistent with the company's stated compensation policy, or if the said office holder is the chief executive officer of the company (subject to a number of specific exceptions), then such arrangement is subject to the approval of our shareholders, subject to a special majority requirement.

*Directors*. Under the Companies Law, the compensation of our directors requires the approval of our compensation committee, the subsequent approval of the board of directors and, unless exempted under the regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, the approval of the general meeting of our shareholders. If the compensation of our directors is inconsistent with our stated compensation policy, then, provided that those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law have been considered by the compensation committee and board of directors, shareholder approval by a special majority will be required.

*Executive officers other than the chief executive officer.* The Companies Law requires the approval of the compensation of a public company's executive officers (other than the chief executive officer) in the following order: (i) the compensation committee, (ii) the company's board of directors, and (iii) only if such compensation arrangement is inconsistent with the company's stated compensation policy, the company's shareholders by a special majority. However, if the shareholders of the company do not approve a compensation arrangement with an executive officer that is inconsistent with the company's stated compensation policy, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders' decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provide detailed reasons for their decision.

*Chief executive officer.* Under the Companies Law, the compensation of a public company's chief executive officer is required to be approved by: (i) the company's compensation committee; (ii) the company's board of directors, and (iii) the company's shareholders by a special majority. However, if the shareholders of the company do not approve the compensation arrangement with the chief executive officer, the compensation committee and board of directors may override the shareholders' decision if each of the compensation committee and the board of directors provides detailed reasons for their decision. In addition, the compensation committee may exempt the engagement terms of a candidate to serve as the chief executive officer from shareholders' approval, if the compensation committee determines that the compensation arrangement is consistent with the company's stated compensation policy, that the chief executive officer did not have a prior business relationship with the company or a controlling shareholder of the company, and that subjecting the approval to a shareholder vote would impede the company's ability to attain the candidate to serve as the company's chief executive officer (and provide detailed reasons for the latter).

The approval of each of the compensation committee and the board of directors, with regard to the office holders and directors above, must be in accordance with the company's stated compensation policy; however, under special circumstances, the compensation committee and the board of directors may approve compensation terms of a chief executive officer that are inconsistent with the company's compensation policy provided that they have considered those provisions that must be included in the compensation policy according to the Companies Law and that shareholder approval was obtained by a special majority requirement.

**Duties of Shareholders**

Under the Companies Law, a shareholder has a duty to refrain from abusing his power in the company and to act in good faith and in an acceptable manner in exercising his rights and performing his obligations toward the company and other shareholders, including, among other things, in voting at general meetings of shareholders (and at shareholder class meetings) on the following matters:

● amendment of the articles of association;

● increase in the company's authorized share capital;

● merger; and

● the approval of related party transactions and acts of office holders that require shareholder approval.

A shareholder also has a general duty to refrain from oppressing other shareholders. The remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply to a breach of the above-mentioned duties, and in the event of oppression of other shareholders, additional remedies are available to the injured shareholder.

In addition, any controlling shareholder, any shareholder that knows that its vote can determine the outcome of a shareholder vote and any shareholder that, under a company's articles of association, has the power to appoint or prevent the appointment of an office holder, or has another power with respect to a company, is under a duty to act with fairness towards the company. The Companies Law does not describe the substance of this duty except to state that the remedies generally available upon a breach of contract will also apply in the event of a breach of the duty to act with fairness, taking the shareholder's position in the company into account.

**Share Option Plan**

Our 2021 Share Option Plan was approved by the general meeting of shareholders on February 23, 2021. The 2021 Share Option Plan provides for the grant of options to our directors, employees, officers, consultants and service providers from a pool of up to 308,500 Ordinary Shares. The number of Ordinary Shares in the pool is also subject to adjustment under certain circumstances (e.g., reorganization of our equity capital). As of March 6, 2023, no Ordinary Shares had been issued upon the exercise of options, 213,301 options had been granted but had not been exercised, 20,999 options were exercised, 53,622 options were forfeited and returned to the pool, and 74,200 Ordinary Shares remained available for future grants. Our 2021 Share Option Plan is administered by our board of directors, regarding the granting of options and the terms of option grants, including exercise price, method of payment, vesting schedule, acceleration of vesting and the other matters necessary in the administration of this plan.

In June and July 2021, our board of directors approved the issuance of options to purchase an aggregate of 285,422 Ordinary Shares to be granted under our 2021 Share Option Plan to certain employees, directors and consultants, upon the successful completion of an initial public offering. Upon the completion of the IPO, on February 4, 2022, we issued the following options: (i) options to purchase an aggregate of 71,496 Ordinary Shares to Mr. Joseph Weiss, who served as the chairman of the board of directors until December 28, 2022, which options were exercisable for a period of five years from their date of issuance, at a price of $4.20 per Ordinary Share, and vest 8.33% at the end of each three month period of continuous services to the Company; (ii) options to purchase an aggregate of 10,000 Ordinary Shares to Mr. Amitay Weiss and options to purchase an aggregate of 2,500 Ordinary Shares to Ms. Naama Falach Avrahami, two of the Company's directors, which options are exercisable for a period of five years from their date of issuance, at a price of $4.20 per Ordinary Share, and vest 6.25% at the end of each three month period of continuous services to the Company; and (iii) options to purchase an aggregate of 169,588 Ordinary Shares to certain employees and consultants, which options are exercisable for a period of five years from their date of issuance, at a price of $4.20 per Ordinary Share, and will vest 50% on February 4, 2024 and thereafter 6.25% every three months period of continuous services to the Company. Upon the end of term of the service agreement with Mr. Joseph Weiss in December 2022, options to purchase an aggregate of 53,622 Ordinary Shares were forfeited and returned to the pool.

On April 3, 2022, the Company issued options to purchase an aggregate of 31,838 Ordinary Shares to Nir Bussy, our Chief Financial Officer. The options are exercisable for a period of five years from their date of issuance, at a price of $4.20 per Ordinary Share, and vest 50% on April 3, 2024 and 6.25% every three months thereafter.

On December 28, 2022, the Company issued options to purchase up to 2,500 Ordinary Shares to Ms. Isabela Marshack, one of the Company's directors. The options are exercisable for a period of five years from their date of issuance, at a price of $4.20 per Ordinary Share, and will vest 50% on December 28, 2024 and 6.25% every three months thereafter.

Eligible Israeli employees, officers and directors, would qualify for provisions of Section 102(b)(2) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], or the Tax Ordinance. Pursuant to such Section 102(b)(2) of the Tax Ordinance, qualifying options and shares issued upon exercise of such options are held in escrow and registered in the name of an escrow agent selected by the board of directors. The escrow agent may not release these options or shares to the holders thereof for two years from the date of the registration of the options in the name of the escrow agent. Under Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance, any tax payable by an employee from the grant or exercise of the options is deferred until the transfer of the options or Ordinary Shares by the escrow agent to the employee or upon the sale of the options or Ordinary Shares, and gains may qualify to be taxed as capital gains at a rate equal to 25%, subject to compliance with specified conditions. Under Israeli tax law, Israeli non-employee service providers and controlling shareholders may only be granted options under Section 3(9) of the Tax Ordinance, which does not provide the full tax benefits.

As a default, our 2021 Share Option Plan provides that upon termination of employment for any reason, other than in the event of death, retirement, disability or cause, all unvested options will expire and all vested options will generally be exercisable for 90 days following such termination, subject to the terms of our 2021 Share Option Plan and the governing option agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the engagement is terminated for cause, including, *inter alia*, due to dishonesty toward the Company or its affiliate, substantial malfeasance or nonfeasance of duty, unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, and conduct substantially prejudicial to the business of the Company or affiliate; or any substantial breach by the optionee of his or her employment or service agreement, all options granted to such optionee, whether vested or unvested, will not be exercisable and will terminate on the date of the termination of his employment.

Upon termination of employment due to death or disability, all the options vested at the time of termination, will generally be exercisable for 12 months, or such other period as determined by the plan administrator, subject to the terms of our 2021 Share Option Plan and the governing option agreement.

**D. Employees**

As March 6, 2023, we employ eleven full-time employees and one part time employee. Additionally, we have three regular service providers and independent contractors.

None of our employees are members of a union or subject to the terms of a collective bargaining agreement. However, in Israel, we are subject to certain Israeli Labor laws, regulations and national labor court precedent rulings, as well as certain provisions of collective bargaining agreements applicable to us by virtue of extension orders issued in accordance with relevant labor laws by the Israeli Industry and Economy Office, and which apply such agreement provisions to our employees even though they are not part of a union that has signed a collective bargaining agreement.

All of our employment and consulting agreements include the employee's and consultant's undertaking with respect to non-competition and assignment to us of intellectual property rights developed in the course of employment and confidentiality. The enforceability of such provisions is limited by Israeli law.

**E. Share Ownership**

When appropriate in management's estimation, we may record reserves in our financial statements for pending litigation and other claims.

**Dividends**

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Ordinary Shares and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of cash dividends, if any, in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

Under the Companies Law, we may declare and pay dividends only if, upon the determination of our board of directors, there is no reasonable concern that the distribution will prevent us from being able to meet the terms of our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due. Under the Companies Law, the distribution amount is further limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the two most recent years legally available for distribution according to our then last reviewed or audited financial statements, provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate is not more than six months prior to the date of distribution. In the event that we do not meet such earnings criteria, we may seek the approval of the court in order to distribute a dividend. The court may approve our request if it is convinced that there is no reasonable concern that the payment of a dividend will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due.

Payment of dividends may be subject to Israeli withholding taxes (see the Prospectus filed February 1, 2022, under "Taxation - Israeli Tax Considerations and Government Programs" for additional information).

**D. Exchange Controls**

There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on payments of dividends or other distributions with respect to our Ordinary Shares or the proceeds from the sale of the shares, except for the obligation of Israeli residents to file reports with the Bank of Israel regarding certain transactions. However, legislation remains in effect pursuant to which currency controls can be imposed by administrative action at any time.

The ownership or voting of our Ordinary Shares by non-residents of Israel, except with respect to citizens of countries that are in a state of war with Israel, is not restricted in any way by our memorandum of association or amended and restated articles of association or by the laws of the State of Israel.

**E. Taxation**

*The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the ownership or disposition of our Ordinary Shares. You should consult your own tax advisor* concerning *the tax consequences of your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign, including Israeli, or other taxing jurisdiction.*

**Israeli Tax Considerations and Government Programs**

The following is a description of the material Israeli income tax consequences of the ownership of our Ordinary Shares. The following also contains a description of material relevant provisions of the current Israeli income tax structure applicable to companies in Israel, with reference to its effect on us. To the extent that the discussion is based on new tax legislation which has not been subject to judicial or administrative interpretation, there can be no assurance that the tax authorities will accept the views expressed in the discussion in question. The discussion is not intended, and should not be taken, as legal or professional tax advice and is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations.

The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the ownership or disposition of our Ordinary Shares. Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax consequences of their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign, or other taxing jurisdiction.

***General Corporate Tax Structure in Israel***

Israeli companies are generally subject to corporate tax, currently at the rate of 23%. However, the effective tax rate payable by a company that derives income from a Preferred Enterprise or Preferred Technological Enterprise (as discussed below) may be considerably less.

Capital gains derived by an Israeli resident company are subject to tax at the regular corporate tax rate. Under Israeli tax legislation, a corporation will be considered as an "Israeli resident company" if it meets one of the following criteria: (i) it was incorporated in Israel; or (ii) the control and management of its business are exercised in Israel.

***Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969***

The Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969, generally referred to as the Industry Encouragement Law, provides several tax benefits for Industrial Companies.

The Industry Encouragement Law defines an "Industrial Company" as an Israeli resident-company, which has 90% or more of its income in any tax year, other than income from defense loans, derived from an "Industrial Enterprise" owned by it. An "Industrial Enterprise" is defined as an enterprise whose principal activity in a given tax year is industrial production.

The following corporate tax benefits, among others, are available to Industrial Companies:

● amortization of the cost to purchase a patent, rights to use a patent, and know-how, which are used for the development or advancement of the company, over an eight-year period, commencing on the year in which such rights were first exercised;

● under limited conditions, an election to file consolidated tax returns with related Israeli Industrial Companies; and

● expenses related to a public offering are deductible in equal amounts over three years.

Eligibility for benefits under the Industry Encouragement Law is not contingent upon approval of any governmental authority, but it quite common to maintain preapproval from the Israeli Tax Authority, or the ITA.

***Tax Benefits and Grants for Research and Development***

**General.** The IIA, an independent publicly funded agency, was created to provide a variety of practical tools and funding platforms aimed at effectively addressing the dynamic and changing needs of the local and international innovation ecosystem. The IIA acts under the Law for the Encouragement of Research, Development and Technological Innovation in the Industry 1984 and the related IIA rules and regulations, or the Innovation Law. Companies that receive funding from the IIA are subject to certain liabilities of the Innovation Law, mainly pertaining to the know-how that was developed with the support of the IIA within the framework of an R&D funding program, and/or its derivatives, or the IIA-supported Know-how, and/or to the products derived from the technology that was developed with the support of the IIA within the framework of an R&D funding program, and/or its derivatives, or IIA-supported products.

**Ownership Structure.** Any change of ownership must be reported to the IIA prior to the execution of the acquisition. A change in the company's ownership, in which a foreign entity becomes a shareholder in the company, requires the IIA approval and the new shareholder signature on an undertaking letter acknowledging the company's liabilities to the Innovation Law.

**Royalty payment.** Companies supported by the IIA are required to pay royalties on income yielded from the IIA-supported products, until full refund of the grant, which is linked to the US dollar and carries interest (the annual LIBOR interest for annual dollar deposits, as published on the first day of trading of each year, or in an alternate publication according to the Bank of Israel's announcement). Until July 2017, the rate of the royalties refund was 3% of related income in the first three years, and 3.5% from the 4th year, onward. As of July 2017, the rate of the royalties refund for companies with total revenues of under $70 million at the year preceding the application date, has changed to 3%.

**Manufacturing location.** Until 2003, manufacturing was considered to be done completely in Israel, and after this date, the manufacturing location (including assembly) is determined based on the manufacturing declaration located in the grant application submitted for supporting R&D, or the Manufacturing Declaration. The transfer of manufacturing activity outside Israel may be subject to the prior approval of the IIA and may result in an increased royalty payment rate and an increased total royalty payment, which will be calculated based on the deviation from the company's Manufacturing Declaration. Cumulative deviation of under 10% requires notification of the IIA, while 10% or more requires pre-approval.

The rate of royalty payment due to overseas manufacturing is increased as follows: If the foreign company will be given the rights to only manufacture the IIA-supported products, an additional 1% will be incurred (e.g., instead of paying 3%, the company will pay 4%). However, if the foreign company will be given the rights to both manufacture and distribute the IIA-supported products, the royalties rate may be higher. The increased royalty rate will apply for revenues associated with manufacturing outside of Israel only. In general, royalties will be paid from the final sale price to the client and not from the inter-company transfer price. The company will have to keep paying royalties until it reaches the new royalty liability ceiling.

The increased repayment is calculated according to the percentage of the manufacturing activities that are carried out outside of Israel out of the total cumulative manufacturing activities both in Israel and abroad, as described in the following table:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Percentage of manufacturing activities performed <br> outside of Israel, cumulatively** | **The increased payment to the IIA** |
| Up to 50% | 120% of the received grants + interest |
| Between 50% and 90% | 150% of the received grants + interest |
| 90% and more | 300% of the received grants + interest |

---

**Know-how location.** To the extent a company wishes to transfer its IIA-supported Know-how outside of Israel, the transfer must be preapproved by the IIA and the company may be required to pay an additional payment to the IIA, or the Fee, as described below. This Fee (which also relates to programs that are absolved of royalty payment) is calculated according to the ratio between the total grants received from the IIA and the total financial R&D expenses invested in the related know-how (including the received grants), multiplied by the transaction price of the IIA-supported Know-how, or the Basic Amount.

The Basic Amount minus the received grants is depreciated at a rate of 1/7 per annum, as of the fourth year from the end of the last supported file in each program. As a result, when transferring IIA-supported Know-how after 10 years or more, the maximum payment to the IIA will be only the total sum of the received grants plus interest, minus paid royalties.

However, the aforementioned formula has a minimum and a maximum limits. The minimum amount of the payment is the total sum of grants received plus interest. The maximum amount shall be no higher than 6 times the total sum of grants received plus interest. In the case that the IIA-supported company retains its R&D center in Israel for at least three consecutive years, following the year of transferring the IIA-supported Know-how outside of Israel, while maintaining at least 75% of its R&D employment in Israel - the payment will be limited to 3 times the total sum of grants received plus interest.

Transferring IIA-supported Know-how outside of Israel according to the Innovation Law (including paying the Fee where necessary) releases the IIA-supported company from all liabilities to the IIA.

Transfer of know-how to another Israeli entity is subject to signature of the recipient Israeli entity on a formal IIA issued undertaking document, to comply with the provisions of the Innovation Law, including the restrictions on the transfer of know-how and the obligation to pay royalties.

According to the above, these liabilities should be taken into account when we consider to outsource manufacturing, engage in change of control transactions or otherwise transfer our know-how outside of Israel, and may require us to obtain the pre-approval of the IIA for certain actions and transactions and pay additional payments to the IIA. In particular, any change of control and any change of ownership of our Ordinary Shares that would make a non-Israeli citizen or resident an "interested party," as defined in the Innovation Law, requires a prior written notice to the IIA in addition to any payment that may be required of us for transfer of manufacturing or know-how outside of Israel. If we fail to comply with the Innovation Law, we may be subject to criminal charges.

***Tax Benefits for Research and Development***

Israeli tax law allows, under certain conditions, a tax deduction for expenditures, including capital expenditures, for the year in which they are incurred. Expenditures are deemed related to scientific research and development projects, if:

● The expenditures are approved by the relevant Israeli government ministry, determined by the field of research;

● The research and development must be for the promotion of the company; and

● The research and development is carried out by or on behalf of the company seeking such tax deduction.

The amount of such deductible expenses is reduced by the sum of any funds received through government grants for the finance of such scientific research and development projects. No deduction under these research and development deduction rules is allowed if such deduction is related to an expense invested in an asset depreciable under the general depreciation rules of the Tax Ordinance. Expenditures not so approved are deductible in equal amounts over three years.

From time to time, we may apply the Office of the Chief Scientist for approval to allow a tax deduction for all research and development expenses during the year incurred. There can be no assurance that such application will be accepted.

***Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959***

The Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, generally referred to as the Investment Law, provides certain incentives for capital investments in production facilities (or other eligible assets).

*Tax benefits under the 2011 Amendment*

The 2011 Amendment canceled the availability of the benefits granted under the Investment Law prior to 2011 and, instead introduced new benefits for income generated by a "Preferred Company" through its "Preferred Enterprise" (as such terms are defined in the Investment Law) as of January 1, 2011. The definition of a Preferred Company includes a company incorporated in Israel that is not fully owned by a governmental entity, and that has, among other things, Preferred Enterprise status and is controlled and managed from Israel. Pursuant to the 2011 Amendment, a Preferred Company is entitled to a reduced corporate tax rate of 16% with respect to its income derived from its Preferred Enterprise, unless the Preferred Enterprise is located in a specified development zone, in which case the rate will be 7.5%. Income derived by a Preferred Company from a "Special Preferred Enterprise" (as such term is defined in the Investment Law) would be entitled, during a benefits period of 10 years, to further reduced tax rates of 8%, or 5% if the Special Preferred Enterprise is located in a certain development zone.

Dividends distributed from income which is attributed to a "Preferred Enterprise" should generally be subject to withholding tax at source at the following rates: (i) Israeli resident corporations - 0%, (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed to individuals or a non-Israeli company the below rates detailed in sub sections (ii) and (iii) shall apply), (ii) Israeli resident individuals - 20% and (iii) non-Israeli residents (individuals and corporations) - subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate, 20% or such lower rate as may be provided under the provisions of any applicable double tax treaty.

We currently do not intend to implement the 2011 Amendment.

*Tax benefits under the 2017 Amendment that became effective on January 1, 2017*

The 2017 Amendment was enacted as part of the Economic Efficiency Law that was published on December 29, 2016, and is effective as of January 1, 2017. The 2017 Amendment provided new tax benefits for two types of "Technological Enterprises," as described below, and is in addition to the other existing tax beneficial programs under the Investment Law.

The 2017 Amendment provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions should qualify as a Preferred Technological Enterprise, or PTE, and thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as "Preferred Technological Income", as defined in the Investment Law. The tax rate is further reduced to 7.5% for a PTE located in development zone "A". In addition, a PTE will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain "Benefited Intangible Assets" (as defined in the Investment Law) to a related foreign company if the Benefited Intangible Assets were acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017 for at least NIS 200 million, and the sale received prior approval from the National Authority for Technological Innovation previously known as the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist), to which we refer as IIA.

The 2017 Amendment further provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions (group turnover of at least NIS 10 billion) should qualify as a "Special Preferred Technological Enterprise" and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on "Preferred Technological Income" regardless of the company's geographic location within Israel. In addition, a Special Preferred Technological Enterprise should enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain "Benefited Intangible Assets" to a related foreign company if the Benefited Intangible Assets were either developed by the Special Preferred Enterprise or acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017, and the sale received prior approval from IIA. A Special Preferred Technological Enterprise that acquires Benefited Intangible Assets from a foreign company for more than NIS 500 million should be eligible for these benefits for at least ten years, subject to certain approvals as specified in the Investment Law.

Dividends distributed out of Preferred Technological Income to Israeli shareholders by a PTE or a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise, paid out of Preferred Technological Income, should generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% (in the case of non-Israeli shareholders, a lower rate may be provided in an applicable tax treaty) but in either case, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for a reduced tax rate. However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is generally required to be withheld (although, if such dividends are subsequently distributed to individuals or a non-Israeli company, withholding tax at a rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty, should apply). If such dividends are distributed to a foreign company that holds solely or together with other foreign companies 90% or more in the Israeli company and other conditions are met, the withholding tax rate should be 4% (or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty, in either case, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for such reduced tax rate).

We are examining the potential impact of the 2017 Amendment and the degree to which we may qualify as a PTE, the amount of Preferred Technological Income that we may have and other benefits that we may receive from the 2017 Amendment in the future.

***Taxation of our Shareholders***

Capital Gains Taxes Applicable to Non-Israeli Resident Shareholders. A non-Israeli resident who derives capital gains from the sale of shares in an Israeli resident company will be exempt from Israeli tax so long as the shares were not held through a permanent establishment that the non-resident maintains in Israel. However, non-Israeli corporations will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption if Israeli residents: (i) have a controlling interest of 25% or more in such non-Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly.

Additionally, a sale of securities by a non-Israeli resident may be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty. For example, under Convention Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the State of Israel with respect to Taxes on Income, as amended, or the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares by a shareholder who is a United States resident (for purposes of the treaty) holding the shares as a capital asset and is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such a resident by the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty, or a Treaty U.S. Resident, is generally exempt from Israeli capital gains tax unless: (i) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gain arising from the such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to a permanent establishment in Israel, under certain terms; (iv) such Treaty U.S. Resident holds, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of the voting capital during any part of the 12-month period preceding the disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) such Treaty U.S. Resident is an individual and was present in Israel for 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year.

In some instances where our shareholders may be liable for Israeli tax on the sale of their Ordinary Shares, the payment of the consideration may be subject to the withholding of Israeli tax. Shareholders may be required to demonstrate that they are exempt from tax on their capital gains in order to avoid withholding at source at the time of sale.

*Taxation of Non-Israeli Shareholders on Receipt of Dividends*. Non-Israeli residents are generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on our Ordinary Shares at the rate of 25%, which tax will be withheld, unless relief is provided in a treaty between Israel and the shareholder's country of residence. With respect to a person who is a "substantial shareholder" at the time of receiving the dividend or at any time during the preceding twelve months, the applicable tax rate is 30%. A "substantial shareholder" is generally a person who alone or together with such person's relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, holds, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of any of the "means of control" of the corporation at the time of receiving the dividend or at any time during the preceding twelve months. "Means of control" generally include the right to vote, receive profits, nominate a director or an executive officer, receive assets upon liquidation, or order someone who holds any of the aforesaid rights how to act, regardless of the source of such right. However, a distribution of dividends to non-Israeli residents is subject to withholding tax at source at a rate of 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or PTE, unless a reduced tax rate is provided under an applicable tax treaty. For example, under the United States-Israel Tax Treaty, the maximum rate of tax withheld at source in Israel on dividends paid to a holder of our Ordinary Shares who is a Treaty U.S. Resident is 25%. However, generally, the maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends, not generated by a Preferred Enterprise or PTE, that are paid to a United States corporation holding 10% or more of the outstanding voting capital throughout the tax year in which the dividend is distributed as well as during the previous tax year, is 12.5%, provided that not more than 25% of the gross income for such preceding year consists of certain types of dividends and interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or PTE are not entitled to such reduction under the tax treaty but are subject to a withholding tax rate of 15% for a shareholder that is a U.S. corporation, provided that the condition related to our gross income for the previous year (as set forth in the previous sentence) is met. If the dividend is attributable partly to income derived from a Preferred Enterprise or PTE, and partly to other sources of income, the withholding rate will be a blended rate reflecting the relative portions of the two types of income. We cannot assure you that we will designate the profits that we may distribute in a way that will reduce shareholders' tax liability.

**U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations**

THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL INFORMATION AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. EACH U.S. HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, AND SALE OF ORDINARY SHARES, the Warrants, the Pre-funded Warrants and the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF APPLICABLE STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN THE TAX LAWS.

Subject to the limitations described in the next paragraph, the following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to a "U.S. Holder" arising from the purchase, ownership and sale of the Ordinary Shares, the Warrants, the Pre-funded Warrants and the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants, or collectively, the securities. For this purpose, a "U.S. Holder" is a holder of securities that is: (1) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, including an alien individual who is a lawful permanent resident of the United States or meets the substantial presence residency test under U.S. federal income tax laws; (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a partnership (other than a partnership that is not treated as a U.S. person under any applicable U.S. Treasury regulations) created or organized under the laws of the United States or the District of Columbia or any political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate, the income of which is includable in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of source; (4) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (5) a trust that has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person to the extent provided in U.S. Treasury regulations.

This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase our securities. This summary generally considers only U.S. Holders that will own our securities as capital assets. Except to the limited extent discussed below, this summary does not consider the U.S. federal tax consequences to a person that is not a U.S. Holder, nor does it describe the rules applicable to determine a taxpayer's status as a U.S. Holder. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, (including with respect to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017), and the U.S.-Israel Income Tax Treaty, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and all of which are open to differing interpretations. We will not seek a ruling from the IRS with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our securities by U.S. Holders and, therefore, can provide no assurances that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth below.

This discussion does not address all of the aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular U.S. holder based on such holder's particular circumstances and in particular does not discuss any estate, gift, generation-skipping, transfer, state, local, excise or foreign tax considerations. In addition, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder who is: (1) a bank, life insurance company, regulated investment company, or other financial institution or "financial services entity;" (2) a broker or dealer in securities or foreign currency; (3) a person who acquired our securities in connection with employment or other performance of services; (4) a U.S. Holder that is subject to the U.S. alternative minimum tax; (5) a U.S. Holder that holds our securities as a hedge or as part of a hedging, straddle, conversion or constructive sale transaction or other risk-reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (6) a tax-exempt entity; (7) real estate investment trusts or grantor trusts; (8) a U.S. Holder that expatriates out of the United States or a former long-term resident of the United States; or (9) a person having a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder that owns, directly or constructively, at any time, securities representing 10% or more of our voting power. Additionally, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partnerships (or other pass-through entities) or persons who hold securities through a partnership or other pass-through entity are not addressed.

Each prospective investor is advised to consult his or her own tax adviser for the specific tax consequences to that investor of purchasing, holding or disposing of our securities, including the effects of applicable state, local, foreign or other tax laws and possible changes in the tax laws.

***Tax Treatment of the Pre-Funded Warrants***

We intend to treat our Pre-funded Warrants as a class of our Ordinary Shares for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, our position is not binding on the IRS and the IRS may treat the Pre-funded Warrants as warrants to acquire our common shares. Accordingly, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the pre-funded warrants. The following discussion assumes our Pre-funded Warrants are properly treated as a class of our Ordinary Shares.

***Exercise or Expiry of Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants***

 ****

No gain or loss will be realized on the exercise of a Pre-funded Warrant or Warrant. When a Pre-funded Warrant or Warrant is exercised, the U.S. Holder's cost of the Ordinary Shares acquired thereby will be equal to the U.S. Holder's adjusted cost basis of the Pre-funded Warrant and Warrant plus the exercise price paid for the Ordinary Shares. The expiration of an unexercised Warrant will generally give rise to a capital loss equal to the adjusted cost basis to the U.S. Holder of the Warrant. The Pre-Funded Warrants do not expire. The holding period of the Ordinary Shares acquired by the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant includes the holding period of the Pre-funded Warrant and Warrant.

***Taxation of Dividends Paid on Securities***

We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future and U.S. Holders of Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants are not entitled to dividends. In the event that we do pay dividends, and subject to the discussion under the heading "Passive Foreign Investment Companies" below and the discussion of "qualified dividend income" below, a U.S. Holder, other than certain U.S. Holder's that are U.S. corporations, will be required to include in gross income as ordinary income the amount of any distribution paid on securities (including distributions paid on the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants if such warrants were to become entitled to dividends and the amount of any Israeli tax withheld on the date of the distribution), to the extent that such distribution does not exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of a distribution which exceeds our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital, reducing the U.S. Holder's tax basis for the securities to the extent thereof, and then capital gain. We do not expect to maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles and, therefore, U.S. Holders should expect that the entire amount of any distribution generally will be reported as dividend income.

In general, preferential tax rates for "qualified dividend income" and long-term capital gains are applicable for U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates, or trusts. For this purpose, "qualified dividend income" means, inter alia, dividends received from a "qualified foreign corporation." A "qualified foreign corporation" is a corporation that is entitled to the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States which includes an exchange of information program. The IRS has stated that the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty satisfies this requirement and we believe we are eligible for the benefits of that treaty.

In addition, our dividends will be qualified dividend income if our securities are readily tradable on the Nasdaq Capital Market or another established securities market in the United States. Dividends will not qualify for the preferential rate if we are treated, in the year the dividend is paid or in the prior year, as a PFIC, as described below under "Passive Foreign Investment Companies." A U.S. Holder will not be entitled to the preferential rate: (1) if the U.S. Holder has not held our securities for at least 61 days of the 121 day period beginning on the date which is 60 days before the ex-dividend date, or (2) to the extent the U.S. Holder is under an obligation to make related payments on substantially similar property. Any days during which the U.S. Holder has diminished its risk of loss on our securities are not counted towards meeting the 61-day holding period. Finally, U.S. Holders who elect to treat the dividend income as "investment income" pursuant to Code section 163(d)(4) will not be eligible for the preferential rate of taxation.

The amount of a distribution with respect to our securities will be measured by the amount of the fair market value of any property distributed, and for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of any Israeli taxes withheld therefrom. Cash distributions paid by us in NIS will be included in the income of U.S. Holders at a U.S. dollar amount based upon the spot rate of exchange in effect on the date the dividend is includible in the income of the U.S. Holder, and U.S. Holders will have a tax basis in such NIS for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to such U.S. dollar value. If the U.S. Holder subsequently converts the NIS into U.S. dollars or otherwise disposes of it, any subsequent gain or loss in respect of such NIS arising from exchange rate fluctuations will be U.S. source ordinary exchange gain or loss.

***Taxation of the Disposition of Securities***

Except as provided under the PFIC rules described below under "Passive Foreign Investment Companies," upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our securities, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder's tax basis for the securities in U.S. dollars and the amount realized on the disposition in U.S. dollar (or its U.S. dollar equivalent determined by reference to the spot rate of exchange on the date of disposition, if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency). The gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of securities will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has a holding period of more than one year at the time of the disposition. Individuals who recognize long-term capital gains may be taxed on such gains at reduced rates of tax. The deduction of capital losses is subject to various limitations.

***Passive Foreign Investment Companies***

Special U.S. federal income tax laws apply to U.S. taxpayers who own shares of a corporation that is a PFIC. We will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year that either:

● 75% or more of our gross income (including our pro-rata share of gross income for any company, in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value), in a taxable year is passive; or

● At least 50% of our assets, averaged over the year and generally determined based upon fair market value (including our pro-rata share of the assets of any company in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value) are held for the production of, or produce, passive income.

For this purpose, passive income generally consists of dividends, interest, rents, royalties, annuities and income from certain commodities transactions and from notional principal contracts. Cash is treated as generating passive income.

The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually, and it is difficult to make accurate projections of future income and assets which are relevant to this determination. In addition, our PFIC status may depend in part on the market value of our securities. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we currently are not or will not become an PFIC.

If we currently are or become a PFIC, each U.S. Holder who has not elected to mark the shares to market (as discussed below), would, upon receipt of certain distributions by us and upon disposition of our securities at a gain: (1) have such distribution or gain allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the securities, as the case may be; (2) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any period prior to the first day of the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income; and (3) the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, when shares of a PFIC are acquired by reason of death from a decedent that was a U.S. Holder, the tax basis of such shares would not receive a step-up to fair market value as of the date of the decedent's death, but instead would be equal to the decedent's basis if lower, unless all gain were recognized by the decedent. Indirect investments in a PFIC may also be subject to these special U.S. federal income tax rules.

The PFIC rules described above would not apply to a U.S. Holder who makes a QEF election for all taxable years that such U.S. Holder has held the securities while we are a PFIC, provided that we comply with specified reporting requirements. Instead, each U.S. Holder who has made such a QEF election is required for each taxable year that we are a PFIC to include in income such U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our ordinary earnings as ordinary income and such U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our net capital gains as long-term capital gain, regardless of whether we make any distributions of such earnings or gain. In general, a QEF election is effective only if we make available certain required information. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and generally may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. We do not intend to notify U.S. Holders if we believe we will be treated as a PFIC for any tax year. In addition, we do not intend to furnish U.S. Holders annually with information needed in order to complete IRS Form 8621 and to make and maintain a valid QEF election for any year in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a PFIC. Therefore, the QEF election will not be available with respect to our securities.

In addition, the PFIC rules described above would not apply if we were a PFIC and a U.S. Holder made a mark-to-market election. A U.S. Holder of our securities which are regularly traded on a qualifying exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, can elect to mark the securities to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the fair market value of the securities and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the securities. Losses are allowed only to the extent of net mark-to-market gain previously included income by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years.

U.S. Holders who hold our securities during a period when we are a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC. U.S. Holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules.

**Tax on Net Investment Income**

U.S. Holders who are individuals, estates or trusts will generally be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare tax on their net investment income (including dividends on and gains from the sale or other disposition of our securities), or in the case of estates and trusts on their net investment income that is not distributed. In each case, the 3.8% Medicare tax applies only to the extent the U.S. Holder's total adjusted income exceeds applicable thresholds.

**Tax Consequences for Non-U.S. Holders of Securities**

Except as provided below, an individual, corporation, estate or trust that is not a U.S. Holder referred to below as a non-U.S. Holder, generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on the payment of dividends on, and the proceeds from the disposition of, our securities.

A non-U.S. Holder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a dividend paid on our securities or gain from the disposition of our securities if: (1) such item is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed place of business in the United States; or (2) in the case of a disposition of our securities, the individual non-U.S. Holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and other specified conditions are met.

In general, non-U.S. Holders will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to the payment of dividends on our securities if payment is made through a paying agent, or office of a foreign broker outside the United States. However, if payment is made in the United States or by a U.S. related person, non-U.S. Holders may be subject to backup withholding, unless the non-U.S. Holder provides an applicable IRS Form W-8 (or a substantially similar form) certifying its foreign status, or otherwise establishes an exemption.

The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

**Information Reporting and Withholding**

A U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding at a rate of 24% with respect to cash dividends and proceeds from a disposition of securities. In general, backup withholding will apply only if a U.S. Holder fails to comply with specified identification procedures. Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to designated exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt organizations. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and may be claimed as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Pursuant to recently enacted legislation, a U.S. Holder with interests in "specified foreign financial assets" (including, among other assets, our securities, unless such securities are held on such U.S. Holder's behalf through a financial institution) may be required to file an information report with the IRS if the aggregate value of all such assets exceeds $50,000 on the last day of the taxable year or $75,000 at any time during the taxable year (or such higher dollar amount as may be prescribed by applicable IRS guidance); and may be required to file a Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts, or FBAR, if the aggregate value of the foreign financial accounts exceeds $10,000 at any time during the calendar year. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the possible obligation to file such information report.

**H. Documents on Display**

We are subject to certain information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, applicable to foreign private issuers and under those requirements will file reports with the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our filings with the SEC will also available to the public through the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file annual, quarterly and current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we will file with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, and may submit to the SEC, on a Form 6-K, unaudited half-yearly financial information.

We maintain a corporate website www.maris-tech.com.

We have included these website addresses in this Annual Report on Form 20-F solely as inactive textual references.

**I. Subsidiary Information**

Not applicable.

**ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.**

In the ordinary course of our operations, we are exposed to certain market risks, primarily changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.

**Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk**

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our current investment policy is to invest available cash in bank deposits with banks that have a credit rating of at least A-minus. Accordingly, some of our cash and cash equivalents is held in deposits that bear interest. Given the current low rates of interest we receive, we will not be adversely affected if such rates are reduced. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of U.S. dollar/NIS exchange rates, which is discussed in detail in the following paragraph.

**Foreign Currency Exchange Risk**

Our functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Although the U.S. dollar is our functional currency, the majority of our expenses are denominated in NIS, and currently most of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars.. Our foreign currency exposures give rise to market risk associated with exchange rate movements of the U.S. dollar against the NIS. Our NIS expenses consist principally of payroll to our employees in Israel, payments made to subcontractors for purchasing components to our products, research and development activities and marketing and sales activities. We anticipate that a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in NIS. If the U.S. dollar fluctuates significantly against the NIS, it may have a negative impact on our results of operations. To date, fluctuations in the exchange rates have not materially affected our results of operations or financial condition.

Due to the fact that exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the NIS fluctuate continuously, such fluctuations have an impact on our results and period-to-period comparisons of our results. The effects of foreign currency remeasurements are reported in our statements of operations. These measures, however, may not adequately protect us from the material adverse effects of such fluctuations.

Currently, we do not hedge our foreign currency exchange risk. In the future, we may enter into formal currency hedging transactions to decrease the risk of financial exposure from fluctuations in the exchange rates of our principal operating currencies. These measures, however, may not adequately protect us from the material adverse effects of such fluctuations.

**Impact of Inflation and Currency Fluctuations**

Our functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. We incur some of our expenses in other currencies. As a result, we are exposed to the risk that the rate of inflation in countries in which we are active other than the United States will exceed the rate of devaluation of such countries' currencies in relation to the dollar or that the timing of any such devaluation will lag behind inflation in such countries. To date, we have been affected by the exchange rates of other countries' currencies compared to the dollar, and we cannot assure you that we will not be adversely affected in the future.

The annual rate of inflation in Israel was 5.3% in 2022 and 2.8% in 2021. The NIS revaluated against the U.S. dollar by approximately 13.2% in 2022 and (3.3)% in 2021.

**ITEM 12. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES**

**A. Debt Securities.**

Not applicable.

**B. Warrants and rights.**

On March 24, 2021, we issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 489,812 Ordinary Shares to the March 2021 Investors. Such warrants are exercisable until March 24, 2026, at an exercise price of $6.1248 per Ordinary Share.

On April 21, 2021 we entered into the Advisory Services Agreement with the Advisors to provide the Company with services related to a potential IPO of the Ordinary Shares. Pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement, the Advisors were each issued warrants to purchase up to 90,204.5 Ordinary Shares, exercisable until April 21, 2026, at an exercise price of $0.0004 per Ordinary Share. Such warrants were fully exercised during August 2022. In addition, pursuant to the Advisory Services Agreement, following the completion of the IPO, the Company issued the Advisors warrants to purchase up to 400,472 Ordinary Shares, exercisable until February 3, 2027, at an exercise price of $4.20.

On April 21, 2021, we entered into an agreement with Doron Afik, the managing partner of Afik & Co., who served as our Israeli legal advisor for the IPO, pursuant to which following the completion of the IPO, we issued to such advisor warrants to purchase up to 145,506 Ordinary Shares. The warrants are exercisable until February 3, 2027, at an exercise price of $4.20.

On February 4, 2022, we closed the IPO of (i) 3,690,477 Units, each consisting of one Ordinary Shares, and one warrant to purchase one ordinary share, and (ii) 10,000 Pre-Funded Units, each consisting of one Pre-Funded Warrants to one Share and one Warrant, to those purchasers whose purchase of Units in the IPO would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or 9.99% in certain circumstances) of the outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately following the consummation of the IPO. The Units were sold at an IPO price of $4.20 per Unit and the Pre-Funded Units were sold at an IPO price of $4.199 per Pre-Funded Unit. The Warrants have an exercise price of $5.25 per Ordinary Share and may be exercised until February 4, 2027 and the Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per Ordinary Share. In addition, the Company also issued and sold 65,247 Ordinary Shares at a price of $4.199, 478,324 Pre-Funded Warrants at a price of $4.198 per Pre-Funded Warrant and 543,571 Warrants at a price of $0.001 per Warrant pursuant to the partial exercise of the over-allotment option and issued 488,324 Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of the 488,324 Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the IPO at an exercise price of $0.001 per Ordinary Share. In connection with the IPO (including over-allotment and Pre-Funded Warrant exercises), the Company issued and sold 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $17.8 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before offering expenses.

We have also issued warrants to purchase up to 185,023 Ordinary Shares to the representative of the underwriters in the IPO, or the Representative's Warrants. The Representative's Warrants have an exercise price equal to $5.25, or 125% of the per Unit public offering price, were exercisable beginning on August 3, 2022, and will expire on February 4, 2027.

**ITEM 14. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS**

In connection with the IPO (including over-allotment and Pre-Funded Warrant exercises), the Company issued and sold 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $17.8 million, before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

The net proceeds from the offering have been used, and are expected to continue to be used, for the following purposes:

● approximately $4.0 million for research and development of new technologies as well as existing products;

● approximately $4.0 million for marketing and sales efforts in new territories (with emphasis on the U.S. market);

● approximately $1.2 million for the repayment of certain outstanding loans; and

● the remainder for working capital and general corporate purposes.

**ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2022, or the Evaluation Date. Based on the material weaknesses identified in the Company's internal control over financial reporting as described below as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be included in periodic filings under the Exchange Act and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

**(b) Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on that assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2022, due to insufficient number of financial reporting personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in application of U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations commensurate with our reporting requirements and inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.

As defined in Regulation 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act, a "material weakness" is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented, or detected on a timely basis.

We have taken action toward remediating these material weaknesses by hiring additional qualified personnel with U.S. GAAP accounting and reporting experience, and intend to provide enhanced training to existing financial and accounting employees on related U.S. GAAP issues. In addition, to remediate these material weaknesses, we are implementing measures including the following:

● we have hired a chief financial officer with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience and are continuing to seek additional financial professionals such as corporate controller to increase the number of qualified financial reporting personnel and implement segregation of duties; and

● we are developing, communicating and implementing an accounting policy manual for our financial reporting personnel for recurring transactions, period-end closing processes and policy relating to segregation of duties.

Although we believe there has been some progress in remediating this weakness, the implementation of these initiatives may not fully address any material weakness or other deficiencies that we may have in our internal control over financial reporting.

**(c) Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Not applicable.

**(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 16. [RESERVED]**

**ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT**

Our board of directors has determined that each of Amitay Weiss, Isabela Marshak and Naama Falach Avrahamy is an audit committee financial expert as such term is defined by the SEC rules and has the requisite financial experience as defined by the Nasdaq Rules. Each of the members of our audit committee is "independent" as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act and satisfies the independent director requirements under the Nasdaq Rules.

**ITEM 16B. CODE OF ETHICS**

**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics**

We have adopted a written code of ethics that applies to our officers and employees, including the Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer, Controller and persons performing similar functions, as well as our directors. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at www.maris-tech.com.

**ITEM 16D. EXEMPTIONS FROM THE LISTING STANDARDS FOR AUDIT COMMITTEES**

Not applicable.

**ITEM 16E. PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS**

In February 2022, Joseph Gottlieb purchased 71,400 Units in the IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $299,880. Following that, Mr. Gottlieb held approximately 8.61% of our issued and outstanding share capital.

In May 2022, Mr. Gottlieb purchased an aggregate of 112,900 Ordinary Shares in open market transactions. Following that, Mr. Gottlieb held approximately 10.86% of our issued and outstanding share capital.

In June 2022, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase plan, or the Repurchase Plan, allowing the Company to invest up to $1,000,000 to repurchase our Ordinary Shares from time to time, in open market transactions, and/or in privately negotiated transactions or in any other legally permissible ways, depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors. Such repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations, under the Exchange Act, and applicable Israeli law, and are subject to the approval of the Israeli court, which was granted in September 2022. The Repurchase Plan does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of the Ordinary Shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time at management's discretion. As of March 6, 2023, no shares have been repurchased under the Repurchase Plan.

**ITEM 16F. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT**

Not applicable.

**ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as related rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, require foreign private issuers, such as us, to comply with various corporate governance practices. In addition, following the listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Under those rules, we may elect to follow certain corporate governance practices permitted under the Companies Law in lieu of compliance with corresponding corporate governance requirements otherwise imposed by the Nasdaq Listing Rules for U.S. domestic issuers.

In accordance with Israeli law and practice and subject to the exemption set forth in Rule 5615 of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we have elected to follow the provisions of the Companies Law, rather than the Nasdaq Listing Rules, with respect to the following requirements:

● *Quorum*. While the Nasdaq Listing Rules require that the quorum for purposes of any meeting of the holders of a listed company's common voting stock, as specified in the company's bylaws, be no less than 33 1/3% of the company's outstanding common voting stock, under Israeli law, a company is entitled to determine in its articles of association the number of shareholders and percentage of holdings required for a quorum at a shareholders meeting. The Companies Law provides that a quorum of two or more shareholders holding at least 25% of the voting rights in person or by proxy is required for commencement of business at a general meeting. However, the quorum set forth in our articles of association with respect to an adjourned meeting consists of at least one shareholders present in person or by proxy.

*●* *Nomination of our directors.* Our directors are elected by the general meeting of our shareholders and, unless appointed for a shorter term, serve in office until the third annual general meeting after the general meeting in which such director was appointed, in which such later annual general meeting the directors will be brought for re-election or replacement. The nominations for directors, which are presented to our shareholders by our board of directors, are generally made by the board of directors itself, in accordance with the provisions of our articles of association and the Companies Law. Nominations need not be made by a nominating committee of our board of directors consisting solely of independent directors, as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

*●* *Compensation of officers.* Israeli law and our articles of association do not require that the independent members of our board of directors (or a compensation committee composed solely of independent members of our board of directors) determine an executive officer's compensation, as is generally required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules with respect to the chief executive officer and all other executive officers. Instead, compensation of executive officers is determined and approved by our compensation committee and our board of directors, and in certain circumstances by our shareholders, either in consistency with our office holder compensation policy or, in special circumstances in deviation therefrom, taking into account certain considerations stated in the Companies Law (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law" for additional information).

● *Shareholder approval.* We will seek shareholder approval for all corporate actions requiring such approval under the requirements of the Companies Law, rather than seeking approval for corporation actions in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. In particular, under this Nasdaq listing rule, shareholder approval is generally required for: (i) an acquisition of shares/assets of another company that involves the issuance of 20% or more of the acquirer's shares or voting rights or if a director, officer or 5% shareholder has greater than a 5% interest in the target company or the consideration to be received; (ii) the issuance of shares leading to a change of control; (iii) adoption/amendment of equity compensation arrangements (although under the provisions of the Companies Law there is no requirement for shareholder approval for the adoption/amendment of the equity compensation plan); and (iv) issuances of 20% or more of the shares or voting rights (including securities convertible into, or exercisable for, equity) of a listed company via a private placement (and/or via sales by directors/officers/5% shareholders) if such equity is issued (or sold) at below the greater of the book or market value of shares. By contrast, under the Companies Law, shareholder approval is required for, among other things: (i) transactions with directors concerning the terms of their service or indemnification, exemption and insurance for their service (or for any other position that they may hold at a company), for which approvals of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders are all required, (ii) extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders of publicly held companies, which require the special approval, and (iii) terms of employment or other engagement of the controlling shareholder of us or such controlling shareholder's relative, which require special approval. In addition, under the Companies Law, a merger requires approval of the shareholders of each of the merging companies.

● *Approval of Related Party Transactions*. All related party transactions are approved in accordance with the requirements and procedures for approval of interested party acts and transaction as set forth in the Companies Law, which requires the approval of the audit committee, or the compensation committee, as the case may be, the board of directors and shareholders, as may be applicable, for specified transactions, rather than approval by the audit committee or other independent body of our board of directors as required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules (see "Management - Board Practices - Approval of Related Party Transactions under Israeli Law" for additional information).

● *Annual Shareholders Meeting.* As opposed to the Nasdaq listing Rule 5620(a), which mandates that a listed company hold its annual shareholders meeting within one year of the company's fiscal year-end, we are required, under the Companies Law, to hold an annual shareholder meeting each calendar year and within 15 months of the last annual shareholders meeting.

● *Distribution of periodic reports to shareholders; proxy solicitation.* As opposed to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, which require listed issuers to make such reports available to shareholders in one of a number of specific manners, Israeli law does not require us to distribute periodic reports directly to shareholders, and the generally accepted business practice in Israel is not to distribute such reports to shareholders but to make such reports available through a public website. In addition to making such reports available on a public website, we currently make our audited financial statements available to our shareholders at our offices and will only mail such reports to shareholders upon request. As a foreign private issuer, we are generally exempt from the SEC's proxy solicitation rules.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the board of directors and shareholders of Maris-Tech Ltd.

***Opinion on the Financial Statements***

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Maris-Tech Ltd. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity (capital deficiency) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 including the related notes (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 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

*Change in Accounting Principle*

As discussed in Note 2W to the financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for leases in 2022.

***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 of these financial statements 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.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 1 - General**

**A.** **Introduction** 

Maris-Tech Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated in 2008, in Israel. The Company develops, designs and manufactures high-end digital video and audio products and solutions for the professional as well as the civilian and home security markets, which can be sold off the shelf or fully customized to meet customers' requirements.

On February 4, 2022, the Company closed an initial public offering ("IPO"). In connection with the IPO (including over-allotment and exercise of pre-funded warrants issued and sold in the IPO), the Company issued and sold 4,244,048 ordinary shares, no par value per share ("Ordinary Shares"), and warrants ("Warrants") to purchase up to 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares. The Ordinary Shares and Warrants were approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") and commenced trading under the symbol "MTEK" and "MTEKW," respectively, on February 2, 2022. For further information see Note 12.

The Company operates in Israel and sells to customers in other countries, including the United States, United Kingdom and Switzerland.

**B.** **Liquidity and Capital Resources** 

The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and has relied on its ability to fund its operations primarily through proceeds from sales of Ordinary Shares, preferred shares no par value per share ("Preferred Shares"), warrants, credit lines and long-term loans from banks and shareholders. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had working capital of $10.4 million and a working capital deficit of $1 million, respectively, an accumulated deficit of $8.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively, and negative cash flow from operating activity of $4.9 million and $0.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company anticipates such losses will continue until its products reach commercial profitability.

On February 4, 2022, in connection with the IPO (including over-allotment and exercise of pre-funded warrants issued and sold in the IPO), the Company issued and sold 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 4,244,048 Ordinary Shares (and received aggregate gross proceeds of $17.8 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before offering expenses ($15.1 million net proceeds after deducting approximately $1.35 million of underwriting discounts and commissions and approximately $1.35 million of other offering costs).

During February and May 2022, the Company repaid its liabilities to banks and one of the Company's shareholders, Yaad Consulting and Management Services (1995) Ltd. ("Yaad"), in the total amount of approximately $1.4 million. As a result, personal guarantees, debenture and collateral securing certain of those loans were released.

Therefore, based on management's projections of the business results for the next twelve months, management concluded that the Company has sufficient liquidity to satisfy its obligations over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 1 – General (Continued)**

In connection with the outbreak of COVID-19, the Company has taken steps to protect its workforce in Israel. Such steps include work from home where possible, minimizing face-to-face meetings and utilizing video conference as much as possible, social distancing at facilities and elimination of all international travel. The Company continues to comply with all local health directives.

Another impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been on product delivery, where the lead time to procure component parts is longer and a shortage in supply of component parts has increased as the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic has continued. As long as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the lead time to obtain component parts may be longer than normal and shortage in supply of component parts may continue or worsen. Therefore, the Company maintains a comprehensive network of world-wide suppliers. In addition, in cases where certain components are purchased from single source manufacturers, the Company has adjusted and modified its designs based on different components from different suppliers, to allow for more versatility and flexibility.

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies**

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the financial statements, applied on a consistent basis, except as noted in Note 2W for the change in the manner in which the Company accounts for leases, are as follows:

**A.** **Functional Currency** 

Most of the Company's revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars. A main portion of purchases of materials, component parts and sales costs are denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, both the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar.

Transactions and balances denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts.

Monetary balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S dollar are converted into U.S dollars in accordance with Statements of the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 830, *Foreign Currency Matters*. All transaction gain and losses of the converted monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the statements of operations, among 'financial expenses, net', as appropriate.

**B.** **Estimates and assumptions** 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during reported period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. As applicable for these financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, and valuation of inventories.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

**C.** **Cash equivalents** 

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments and debt instruments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase.

**D.** **Bank deposits** 

Bank deposits with original maturities of more than three months, or specific deposits that are intended to be held as bank deposits for more than three months, and which will mature within one year, are classified as short-term investments.

**E.** **Trade receivables** 

Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The financial statements include an allowance for doubtful accounts for which collection of the receivable is not probable and as of December 31, 2022, the provision for allowance for doubtful accounts was negligible. In determining the adequacy of the allowance, consideration is given to each trade receivable historical experience, aging of the receivable, adjusted to take into account current market conditions and information available about specific debtors, including their financial condition, current payment patterns, the volume of their operations, and evaluation of the security received from them or their guarantors.

**F.** **Inventories** 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by calculating raw materials, work in process and finished products on a weighted average cost basis. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Inventory write-offs are provided to cover risks arising from slow moving items or technological obsolescence. Such write-offs have been included in cost of revenues. Reserves for potentially excess and obsolete inventory are made based on management's analysis of inventory levels, future sales forecasts. Once established, the original cost of inventory less the related inventory reserve represents the new cost basis of such products.

**G.** **Property, plant and equipment, net** 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Years** | **Years** |
| Computers and manufacturing equipment |  | 3-7 |
| Office furniture and equipment |  | 17 |
| Leasehold improvements |  | Shorter of economic life<br> or lease term |

---

**H.** **Revenue recognition** 

The Company generates revenues from sales of products manufactured based on the Company's technology. The Company develops, design and manufactures both standard and customizable high-end digital Video & Audio products. The Company's products include proprietary software (firmware) embedded into the tangible products and is not sold separately. The Company only sells its products to end customers with no right of return.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

The Company applies ASC Topic 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"). Under ASC 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration that the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

In accordance with ASC 606, the entity performs the following five steps:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Identify the contract(s) with a customer,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Determine the transaction price,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations
in the contract, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance
obligation.

**Identifying the contract with a customer:**

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties and payment terms are identified and agreed upon, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

For each contract, the Company exercises judgement to identify separate performance obligations and to evaluate, at the inception of the contract, if each distinct performance obligation within the contract is satisfied at a point in time or over time.

**Identifying the performance obligations in the contract:**

The Company's sales transactions include a single performance obligation which is the delivery of the product to the customer. The Company is not obligated and does not provide the customer with an updated version of the products' embedded software following the initial transaction. Therefore, the Company's transactions do not include any performance obligation relating to potential upgrades or updates for the software or product.

In certain cases, the Company customizes its products based on its customers' requirements (Proof of Concept ("POC") transactions). In addition, commencing 2021, the Company also enters into several transactions in which it develops a specialized product, based on the Costumer's requirements (Non-Recuring Engineering ("NRE") transactions). In these transactions, the Company has determined that the development or the customization and the delivery of these products are not distinct within the context of the contract, since the nature of the Company's promise is to transfer a combined output to which each of these components is an input. Therefore, these transactions include a single performance obligation which is the customized product.

**Determining the transaction price:**

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract with a customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties (such as sales tax). The Company's transaction does not include a significant financing component as all amounts are due within few months from transfer of Control.

**Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation:**

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over its product to a customer based on the shipment terms. In most cases, control is transferred at Company's premises (Ex-work terms).

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

As for the POC and NRE transactions, the Company analyzed the criteria in ASC 606 to determine whether control over products sold under the contracts is transferred over time. Mainly, whether the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company, and if it has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. In its POC transactions, the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed through the term of the contract with its customers. However, the customized product has an alternative use for the Company, therefore, none of the conditions stipulated in ASC 606 are met for recognizing revenue over time. Accordingly, revenue from POC transactions is recognized at a point in time, upon delivery of the product to the customer usually on EX-Works terms.

In the NRE transactions the Company determines that the specialized product does not have an alternative use for the Company, and it has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed through the term of the contract. Therefore, in these transactions, revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method. The Company uses significant judgment when it determines the costs expected to be incurred upon satisfying the identified performance obligation.

See also Note 10 for further information regarding the Company's revenue transactions.

**I.** **Deferred issuance costs** 

The Company capitalized certain legal, professional accounting and other third-party fees that were directly associated with the IPO, as deferred costs until the IPO was consummated. Following the completion of the IPO, these fees were recorded in the stockholders' equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the activity. The deferred issuance costs in the amount of $871,171 which were capitalized as of December 31, 2021 in long term assets were charged to equity during 2022 in conjunction with the IPO.

**J.** **Warrant classification** 

When the Company issues freestanding instruments, it first analyzes the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 480, *distinguishing liabilities from equity* ("ASC 480") in order to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in each period. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 815, *derivatives and hedging* ("ASC 815-10") in order to determine whether the instrument is considered indexed to the entity's own stock, and qualifies for classification within equity. If the provisions of ASC 815-10 for equity classification are not met, the instrument is classified as a liability, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in each period.

**K.** **Warranty reserve** 

The Company provides a one-year standard warranty for its products. The Company records a provision for the estimated cost to repair or replace products under warranty at the time of sale. Factors that affect the Company's warranty reserve include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty repairs and the cost per repair. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

The following table sets forth activity in the Company's accrued warranty account for each of the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 respectively:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2022** | **2021** | **2020** |
| Balance at beginning of the year | 20758 | 9879 | 8930 |
| Cost incurred | (3220) | (5850) |  |
| Expense recognized | 7511 | 16729 | 949 |
| Balance at end of year | 25049 | 20758 | 9879 |

---

**L.** **Research, development costs and intangible assets** 

Research and development costs, which consist mainly of labor costs, materials and subcontractor costs, are charged to operations as incurred.

According to ASC Topic 350, *Intangibles - Goodwill and Other*, software that is part of a product or process to be sold to a customer shall be accounted for under ASC subtopic 985-20. The Company's products contain embedded software which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding. Based on the Company's product development process, the Company does not incur material costs after the point in time at which the product as a whole reaches technological feasibility. Therefore, research and development costs are charged to the statement of operations as incurred.

Participation by government departments and from research foundations for development of approved projects is recognized as a reduction of expense as the related costs are incurred.

**M.** **Basic and diluted net loss per share** 

Basic and diluted net loss per Ordinary Share is computed based on the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during each year. Shares issuable are considered outstanding Ordinary Shares, including the Preferred Shares (prior to their conversion into Ordinary Shares), and included in the computation of basic net loss per Ordinary Share as of the date that all necessary conditions have been satisfied.

The denominator for diluted net loss per share is a computation of the weighted-average number of Ordinary Shares and the potential dilutive Ordinary Shares outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options and warrants using the treasury stock method.

**N.** **Fair value of financial instruments** 

The Company's financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, trade receivables, restricted deposits including deposits for employee benefits, trade payable, and long-term loans.

**Maris-Tech Ltd.**

**Notes to the Financial Statements**

(U.S. dollars)

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

Fair value for the measurement of financial assets and liabilities is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Company utilizes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs for fair value measurement. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

● Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

● Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

● Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

By distinguishing between inputs that are observable in the market place, and therefore more objective, and those that are unobservable and therefore more subjective, the hierarchy is designed to indicate the relative reliability of the fair value measurements. A financial asset or liability's classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company, in estimating fair value for financial instruments, determined that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, trade receivables, restricted deposits including deposits for employee benefits and trade payables are equivalent to, or approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of variable interest rate long-term loans are equivalent or approximate to their fair value as they bear interest at approximate market rates. The liabilities include long-term loans from shareholders that have no maturity dates, bear no interest and are not linked to any index.

**O.** **Segments** 

The Company operates in one segment. Management does not segregate its business for internal reporting. The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of its business based on financial data consistent with the presentation in the accompanying financial statements. The Company concluded that its unified business is conducted globally and accordingly represents one operating segment.

**P.** **Income taxes** 

The Company accounts for taxes on income in accordance with ASC Topic 740, *Income Taxes*, which prescribes the use of the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases 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 if it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as non-current in accordance with ASU 2015-17, *Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes* .

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740-10. ASC 740-10 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% (cumulative probability) likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement.

The Company accounts for interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.

**Q.** **Severance pay** 

The Company's liability for severance pay for some of its Israeli employees is calculated pursuant to Israeli Severance Pay Law, 1963 (the "Israeli Severance Pay Law") based on the most recent salary of the employee multiplied by the number of years of employment until June 30, 2022. Those employees are entitled to one month's salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof. The Company records the liability as if it were payable at each balance sheet date on an undiscounted basis.

The Company's liability for those Israeli employees is provided for by monthly deposits funded for insurance policies until June 30, 2022 and the remainder by an accrual. The value of these policies is recorded as an asset in the Company's balance sheet.

The deposited funds include profits and losses accumulated up to the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to the Israeli Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies.

In accordance with the current employment agreements with certain employees, and for the period commencing July 1, 2022 for the employees mentioned above, the Company makes regular deposits with certain insurance companies for accounts controlled by each applicable employee in order to secure the employee's rights upon retirement. Pursuant to applicable Israeli law, the Company is fully relieved from any severance pay liability with respect to each such employee if it makes such payments on behalf of the employee. The liability accrued in respect of such employees and the amounts funded, as of the respective agreement dates, are not reflected in the Company's balance sheets, since the Company does not control or manage the funds and the pension or severance pay risks are irrevocably transferred to the applicable insurance companies.

Severance pay expenses for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 amounted to $61,169 , $31,356 and $22,247, respectively.

**R.** **Concentrations of credit or business risk** 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents, bank deposits, trade receivables and trade payables.

Cash equivalents and bank deposits are invested mainly in NIS and U.S. dollars with major banks in Israel. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company's investments are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments.

Most of the Company's trade receivables are derived from sales to large and financially secure organizations. In determining the adequacy of the allowance, management bases its opinion, inter alia, on the estimated risks, current market conditions and in reliance on available information with respect to the debtor's financial position. See Note 10 for a discussion of the Company's major customers.

The Company acquires certain component parts for its products from market leading suppliers that are single source manufacturers. In order to mitigate the risk and as a redundant solution, the Company designs similar products based on component parts from different suppliers.

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

**S.** **Commitments and contingencies** 

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigations, fines and penalties and other sources are recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. Gain contingencies are recognized when they are realized or when all related contingencies have been resolved.

**T.** **Cash and cash equivalents in Statement of Cash Flows** 

The Company implements the Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-18, *Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash*, which requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included within cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown in the statement of cash flows.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash and cash equivalents reported within the accompanying balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts presented in the accompanying statements of cash flows:

**U.** **Leases** The Company adopted ASC 842, *Leases* ("ASC 842") on January 1, 2022, using a modified retrospective basis and applied the practical expedients related to the transition, see also Note 2W. The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease for accounting purposes at contract inception. Operating leases are recorded as right-of-use ("ROU") assets, which are included in right-of-use assets, and lease liabilities, which are included in other payable and non-current operating lease liabilities on the balance sheets, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any finance leases. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate; the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate for specific terms on a collateralized basis based on the information available on either ASC 842, transition date or commencement date, as applicable in determining the present value of lease payments.

The ROU asset calculation includes lease payments to be made. The ROU asset and lease liability may include amounts attributed to options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, upon transition the Company has elected the practical expedients related to lease classification and hindsight.

**Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**V.** **Share based compensation** The Company applies ASC 718, *Share-based Payment* ("ASC 718"). ASC 718 requires awards classified as equity awards to be accounted for using the grant-date fair value method. The fair value of share-based payment transactions is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.

The Company measures the compensation cost related to the options awarded on the grant date and recognize the cost on a straight-line method over the requisite service period of the awards, including awards with graded vesting and no additional conditions for vesting other than service conditions.

Fair value of the equity instrument issued to a non-employee is measured as of the grant date. The fair value of the awards is recognized over the vesting period, which coincides with the period that the counter-party is providing services to the Company.

**W.** **Recently issued accounting pronouncements adopted** 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 regarding FASB ASC 842. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under previous FASB guidance. The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2022, using a modified retrospective basis and applied the practical expedients related to the transition. Consequently, financial information was not updated and the disclosures required under the standard are not provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2022. The adoption resulted in an increase of approximately $530,444 for the right of use lease assets against lease liabilities. See also note 2U above.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, *Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40* ("ASU 2020-06"). This guidance simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity's own equity. The amendments to this guidance are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company decided to early adopt ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, *Government Assistance (Topic 832)*, which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3) the effect of those transactions on an entity's financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. See note 9C.

**X.** **Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted** 

As an emerging growth company, the Jumpstart Our Business Startup Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act. The adoption dates discussed below reflect this election.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, *Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments* ("ASU 2016-13"), which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2023, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-13 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

**C.** **Private Placement** 

On March 24, 2021, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement, which was amended and restated on April 27, 2021 and August 4, 2021, as amended and restated (as amended and restated, the "March 2021 SPA"), pursuant to which the Company issued, in a private placement offering (the "March 2021 Private Placement"), an aggregate of 489,812 Preferred Shares to certain investors (the "March 2021 Investors") for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.5 million. The Preferred Shares have rights identical to those attached to the Ordinary Shares, except that the Preferred Shares have customary anti-dilution protection for a period of 18 months from March 24, 2021 in the event of certain issuances of Ordinary Shares, and are automatically convertible into Ordinary Shares in case that an initial public offering is consummated. Following the closing of the IPO, all Preferred Shares were automatically be converted into 489,812 Ordinary Shares.

Each of the March 2021 Investors also received one warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share for each Preferred Share issued to such investor. Such warrants were exercisable pursuant to the following terms: (i) if an initial public offering of the Ordinary Shares is consummated by the Company during a period of 15 months from the issuance date of the warrant, the warrants will be exercisable until March 24, 2026, at an exercise price of $6.1248 per Ordinary Share; or (ii) if no initial public offering of the Ordinary Shares is consummated by the Company during such 15 month period, the warrants will be exercisable until September 24, 2023, at an exercise price of $7.9888 per Ordinary Share. Prior to the IPO, the warrants issued in the March 2021 Private Placement were classified as liabilities and upon the closing of the IPO, those warrants were classified into shareholders' equity, see also Note 13.

The Preferred Shares issued in the March 2021Private Placement were qualified to be recognized within permeant equity. Therefore, the consideration in the amount of $274,294 was allocated to the warrants (see Note 13), and the rest of the consideration was allocated to the Preferred Shares within equity.

Issuance costs were allocated to profit or loss and equity based on the proportion of the allocated consideration described above.

In connection with the March 2021 SPA, the Company entered into a Placement Agent Agreement with respect to the March 21 SPA, pursuant to which the Company paid to the placement agent a fee equal to 5.0% of the gross proceeds received in the March 2021 Private Placement and issued to the Placement Agent warrants to purchase 24,491 Ordinary Shares, at an exercise price equal to the March 2021 Private Placement price per Ordinary Share ($3.06), which warrants were exercisable until the earlier of the date of consummation of an initial public offering or March 24, 2026.

The consideration paid to the Placement Agent in the total amount of $75,000 in cash and the value of the warrants issued in the total amount of $28,194 represent issuance costs and were allocated to profit or loss and equity based on the proportion of the allocated consideration described above.

On December 10, 2021, the Company and the Placement Agent entered into a Warrant Cancellation Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to cancel the warrants issued to the Placement Agent effective as of such date, and as a result, such warrants are no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2022. No portion of the warrant had been exercised prior to such cancellation.

**D.** On August 25, 2021, the Company's general meeting of shareholders approved a reverse share split of the Ordinary Shares and
the Preferred Shares, at a ratio of 4:1 (four-to-one), so that holders of Ordinary Shares and Preferred Shares will receive one Ordinary
Share and one Preferred Share, respectively, for every four Ordinary Shares and Preferred Shares held as of such date rounded to the nearest
number (with 0.5 share rounded up), and to adopt an amendment to the Company's Articles of Association to effectuate such reverse
stock split.

**E.** During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,084,691 Ordinary Shares to
certain shareholders following the conversion of loan in the amount of $1.079 million due to such shareholders. The conversion of these
loan payables to Ordinary Shares was recorded as paid in capital.

**Note 12 - Equity (continued)**

**F.** On June 1, 2022, the Company announced that its board of directors has authorized a share repurchase plan
(the "Repurchase Plan") allowing the Company to invest up to $1 million to repurchase its Ordinary Shares.

The Repurchase Plan authorizes the Company's management to repurchase Ordinary Shares, from time to time, in open market transactions, and/or in privately negotiated transactions or in any other legally permissible ways, depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors. Such repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations, under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and applicable Israeli law, and was subject to the approval of the Israeli court, which ensured that the Company has enough resources for the Repurchase Plan without affecting its other on-going obligations and commitments. The Repurchase Plan does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of the Ordinary Shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time at management's discretion. As of December 31, 2022, no shares have been repurchased under the Repurchase Plan.

**Note 13 - Warrants**

As part of the March 2021 SPA each of the investors received one warrant to purchase one ordinary share for each Preferred Share issue to such investor, see Note 12(C). The terms of the warrants issued preclude them from being considered indexed to the Company's own stock as long as the exercise price was subject to a change upon the occurrence of an initial public offering, therefore, they were classified as liabilities with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

The fair value of the warrants issued in the March 2021 Private Placement at the time of the initial closing, which took place on March 24, 2021, was calculated by an independent valuation expert, preforming numerous iterations using the Black–Scholes option price model, based on the following assumptions:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Merger and<br> Acquisition ("M&A")<br> Scenario** | **IPO Scenario** |
| Expected volatility (%) | 63.2 | 55.81 |
| Risk-free interest rate (%) | 0.24 | 0.81 |
| Expected Life (years) | 2.5 | 5 |
| Value per share | 0.45 | 1.32 |
| Exercise price (U.S. dollars per share) | 6.1248 | 7.9888 |

---

In addition, based on management's expectations for the M&A scenario, the value was calculated by performing numerous iterations based on the latest transaction with a probability assigned to this case of 80 percent, and for initial public offering the probability assigned to was 20 percent. The total value of the warrants was calculated using a weighted average calculation using the above-mentioned percentage.

The fair value of the warrants issued in the March 2021 Private Placement as of March 24, 2021 was $274,294.

The total value of the warrants was calculated using a weighted average calculation using the above-mentioned percentage.

The fair value of the warrants as of December 31, 2021 was $351,845 and the warrants' fair value revaluation amounted to $77,551 and is classified within finance expenses item in the Company's statement of operation for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The fair value of the warrants issued in March 2021, classified as a liability, as of February 4, 2022, was calculated using the Black–Scholes option price model based on the following assumptions:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Expected volatility (%) | 55.82 |
| Risk-free interest rate (%) | 1.69 |
| Expected Life (years) | 4.19 |
| Value per share | 3.12 |
| Exercise price (U.S. dollars per share) | 6.1248 |

---

The fair value of the warrants as of February 4, 2022 was $412,299. The warrants were classified into shareholders' equity upon the closing of the IPO, see Note 12. The warrants' fair value revaluation was $60,454 and is recorded in finance expenses in the statement of operation for the period ended December 31, 2022.

**Note 14 - Share based compensations**

**Note 15 - Income Taxes**

**A.** **Corporate tax rate** 

The standard tax rate in Israel was 23% during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Under the Economic Policy Law for 2011 and 2012 (Legislation Amendments), 2011, which amended the Israel Capital Investments Encouragement Law, 1959 and under the Economic Efficiency Law (Legislative Amendments for Implementing the Economic Policy for the 2017 and 2018 Budget Year) was published and added, under Amendment 73, such that the income of companies with enterprises "preferred enterprise" and companies with knowledge intensive industries – "preferred technologic enterprise" and "special preferred technologic enterprise" will receive tax benefits. Detailed rules apply under amendment 73 of the Capital Investments Law.

The Company has a balance of carryforward losses and will consider its qualification for the 2017 amendment and the term and degree to which it may be qualified as a Preferred Technology Enterprise or Special Preferred Technology Enterprise upon profitability.

**B.** **Deferred tax assets and liabilities:** 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred taxes are computed using the standard tax rates of 23%. The expected tax rate can be lower as a preferred technologic enterprise and depends on the fulfillment of conditions set forth in the law. Significant components of the Company deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **December 31,** | **December 31,** |
|  | **2022** | **2021** |
| In Respect of: |  |  |
| Net Operating Loss Carry forward | $1218869 | $675604 |
| Research and development expenses | 189856 | 181964 |
| Provision for warranty | 5761 | 4774 |
| Provision for vacation and convalescence | 49850 | 20575 |
| Provision for Severance, net | 62060 | 31254 |
| Operating lease right of use assets | (134836) | - |
| Issuance cost | 381090 |  |
| Operating lease liabilities | 134836 | - |
| Less - valuation allowance | (1907486) | (914171) |
| Net deferred tax assets | $- | $- |

---

The net changes in the total valuation allowance for each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, are comprised as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Year ended December 31,** | **Year ended December 31,** |
|  | **2022** | **2021** |
| Balance at beginning of year | $914171 | $636462 |
| Additions during the year | 993315 | 277709 |
| Balance at the end of year | $1907486 | $914171 |

---

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences or carry-forwards are deductible. Based on the level of historical taxable losses, management has reduced the deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance to the full amount to be realized.

**C.** As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the operating loss carry-forwards amounted to $5.2 million
and $2.4 million, respectively. Operating losses in Israel may be carried forward indefinitely to offset against future taxable operational
income.

**D.** **Reconciliation of the theoretical tax expense to actual tax expense** 

The main reconciling item between the statutory tax rate of the Company and the effective rate is the provision for a full valuation allowance in respect of tax benefits from carry forward tax losses due to the uncertainty of the realization of such tax benefits (see above).

The director to be deemed and to be re-elected is the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election. If more than one director served the longest time, the board of directors will decide which of such directors will be brought for re-election at the relevant general meeting.

***Annual and Special Meetings***

 ****

Under the Israeli law, we are required to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year, at such time and place which shall be determined by our Board of directors, that must be no later than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting. All meetings other than the annual general meeting of shareholders are referred to as special general meetings. Our Board of directors may call special meetings whenever it sees fit and upon the request of: (a) any two of our directors or such number of directors equal to one quarter of the directors then at office; and/or (b) one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, (i) 5% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or (ii) 5% or more of our outstanding voting power.

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote at general meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the board of directors, which may be between four and forty days prior to the date of the meeting. Resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders:

● amendments to our articles of association;

● the exercise of our Board of Director's powers by a general meeting if our Board of directors is unable to exercise its powers and the exercise of any of its powers is required for our proper management;

● appointment or termination of our auditors;

● appointment of directors, including external directors (other than with respect to circumstances specified in our articles of association);

● approval of acts and transactions requiring general meeting approval pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law (mainly certain related party transactions) and any other applicable law;

● increases or reductions of our authorized share capital; and

● a merger (as such term is defined in the Companies Law).

***Notices***

 ****

The Companies Law require that a notice of any annual or special shareholders meeting be provided at least 21 days prior to the meeting, and if the agenda of the meeting includes the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or interested or related parties, approval of the company's general manager to serve as the chairman of the board of directors or an approval of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to the meeting.

***Quorum***

 ****

As permitted under the Companies Law, the quorum required for our general meetings consists of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy, written ballot or voting by means of electronic voting system, who hold or represent between them at least 25% of the total outstanding voting rights. If within half an hour of the time set forth for the general meeting a quorum is not present, the general meeting shall stand adjourned the same day of the following week, at the same hour and in the same place, or to such other date, time and place as prescribed in the notice to the shareholders and in such adjourned meeting, if no quorum is present within half an hour of the time arranged, any number of shareholders participating in the meeting, shall constitute a quorum.

If a special general meeting was summoned following the request of a shareholder, and within half an hour a legal quorum shall not have been formed, the meeting shall be canceled.

***Adoption of Resolutions***

 ****

Our articles of association provide that resolutions amending provisions of the articles of association related to the staggered board of directors and the composition of the board of directors, as well as a resolution to dismiss a director, will require an affirmative vote of 70% of the voting power represented at a general meeting and voting thereon. Other than that, and unless otherwise required under the Companies Law, all resolutions of the Company's shareholders require a simple majority vote. A shareholder may vote in a general meeting in person, by proxy, by a written ballot.

***Changing Rights Attached to Shares***

 ****

Unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares and subject to any applicable law, any modification of rights attached to any class of shares must be adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares of that class present a general meeting of the affected class or by a written consent of all the shareholders of the affected class.

The enlargement of an existing class of shares or the issuance of additional shares thereof, shall not be deemed to modify the rights attached to the previously issued shares of such class or of any other class, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares.

***Limitations on the Right to Own Securities in Our Company***

 ****

There are no limitations on the right to own our securities in our articles of association. In certain circumstances the IPO Warrants have restrictions upon the exercise of such warrants if such exercise would result in the holders thereof owning more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our Ordinary Shares upon such exercise, as further described below.

***Provisions Restricting Change in Control of Our Company***

 ****

Our articles of association provide for a staggered board of directors, which mechanism may delay, defer or prevent a change of control of the Company's board of directors. Other than that, there are no specific provisions of our articles of association that would have an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company or that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving us. However, as described below, certain provisions of the Companies Law may have such effect.

The Companies Law includes provisions that allow a merger transaction and requires that each company that is a party to the merger have the transaction approved by its board of directors and, unless certain requirements described under the Companies Law are met, a vote of the majority of shareholders, and, in the case of the target company, also a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes of the shareholder vote of each party, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if shares representing a majority of the voting power present at the shareholders meeting and which are not held by the other party to the merger (or by any person or group of persons acting in concert who holds 25% or more of the voting power or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other party) vote against the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company's own controlling shareholder or if the controlling shareholder has a personal interest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same special majority approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders. Upon the request of a creditor of either party to the proposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that as a result of the merger the surviving company will be unable to satisfy the obligations of any of the parties to the merger, and may further give instructions to secure the rights of creditors. If the transaction would have been approved by the shareholders of a merging company but for the separate approval of each class or the exclusion of the votes of certain shareholders as provided above, a court may still approve the merger upon the petition of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of a company. For such petition to be granted, the court must find that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the value of the parties to the merger and the consideration offered to the shareholders. In addition, a merger may not be completed unless at least (1) 50 days have passed from the time that the requisite proposals for approval of the merger were filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies by each merging company and (2) 30 days have passed since the merger was approved by the shareholders of each merging company.

The term "Special Majority" hereof will be defined as described in section 275(a)(3) of the Companies Law as:

● at least a majority of the shares held by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have personal interest in the merger (excluding a personal interest that did not result from the shareholder's relationship with the controlling shareholder) have voted in favor of the proposal (shares held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or

● the total number of shares voted against the merger, does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights of the company.

The Companies Law also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, an acquisition of shares in an Israeli public company must be made by means of a "special" tender offer if as a result of the acquisition (1) the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already another holder of at least 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or (2) the purchaser would become a holder of 45% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. These requirements do not apply if, in general, the acquisition (1) was made in a private placement that received shareholders' approval, subject to certain conditions, (2) was from a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (3) was from a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. A "special" tender offer must be extended to all shareholders. In general, a "special" tender offer may be consummated only if (1) at least 5% of the voting power attached to the company's outstanding shares will be acquired by the offeror and (2) the offer is accepted by a majority of the offerees who notified the company of their position in connection with such offer (excluding the offeror, controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or anyone on their behalf, or any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tender offer). If a special tender offer is accepted, then the purchaser or any person or entity controlling it or under common control with the purchaser or such controlling person or entity may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the target company for a period of one year from the date of the offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an offer or merger in the initial special tender offer.

If, as a result of an acquisition of shares, the acquirer will hold more than 90% of an Israeli company's outstanding shares or of certain class of shares, the acquisition must be made by means of a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares, or for all of the outstanding shares of such class, as applicable. In general, if less than 5% of the outstanding shares, or of applicable class, are not tendered in the tender offer and more than half of the offerees who have no personal interest in the offer tendered their shares, all the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to it by operation of law. However, a tender offer will also be accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company or of the applicable class of shares. Any shareholders that was an offeree in such tender offer, whether such shareholder accepted the tender offer or not, may request, by petition to an Israeli court, (i) appraisal rights in connection with a full tender offer, and (ii) that the fair value should be paid as determined by the court, for a period of six months following the acceptance thereof. However, the acquirer is entitled to stipulate, under certain conditions, that tendering shareholders will forfeit such appraisal rights.

Lastly, Israeli tax law treats some acquisitions, such as stock-for-stock exchanges between an Israeli company and a foreign company, less favorably than U.S. tax laws. For example, Israeli tax law may, under certain circumstances, subject a shareholder who exchanges his Ordinary Shares for shares in another corporation to taxation prior to the sale of the shares received in such stock-for-stock swap.

***Changes in Our Capital***

 ****

The general meeting may, by a simple majority vote of the shareholders attending the general meeting:

● increase our registered share capital by the creation of new shares from the existing class or a new class, as determined by the general meeting;

● cancel any registered share capital which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person;

● consolidate and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger nominal value than our existing shares;

● subdivide our existing shares or any of them, our share capital or any of it, into shares of smaller nominal value than is fixed; and

● reduce our share capital and any fund reserved for capital redemption in any manner, and with and subject to any incident authorized, and consent required, by the Companies Law.

***Exclusive Forum***

 ****

Our articles of association provide that unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act and that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Company, shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this exclusive forum provision.

***Staggered Board***

 ****

Our articles of association provide for a split of the board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual general meeting of our shareholders, the election or re-election of directors following the expiration of the term of office of the directors of that class of directors will be for a term of office that expires on the third annual general meeting following such election or re-election, such that each year the term of office of only one class of directors will expire. The director whom is to be retired and re-elected shall be the director that served the longest period since its appointment or last re-election or, if more than one director served the longest time, or if a director who is not to be re-elected agrees to be re-elected, the meeting of the board of directors which sets the date and agenda for the annual general meeting (acting by a simple majority) will decide which of such directors will be brought for re-election at the relevant general meeting.

A holder does not have the right to exercise any portion of the IPO Warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the IPO Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder to the Company.

***Exercise Price***

The warrant agent agreement has similar provisions. In addition, the warrant agent agreement provides that the Company and the warrant agent each waive the right to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the warrant agent agreement.

The Representative's Warrants are exercisable commencing on August 3, 2022 and expire on February 4, 2027. The Representative's Warrants have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a six-month lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110 of FINRA. The Representative (or its permitted assignees) will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or hypothecate the Representative's Warrants or the Ordinary Shares underlying the Representative's Warrants, nor will it engage in any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the Representative's Warrants or the underlying Ordinary Shares for a period of six months from effective date of the Registration Statement. The Representative's Warrants may be exercised as to all, or a lesser number of Ordinary Shares, and provide for cashless exercise. The Company will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the Representative's Warrants and Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of the Representative's Warrants other than underwriting commissions incurred and payable by the holders. The exercise price and number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or the Company's recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Representative's Warrant exercise price or underlying Ordinary Shares will not be adjusted for issuances of Ordinary Shares at a price below the Representative's Warrant exercise price.

all in respect of actions taken by you in your capacity as a director or officer of the Company.

2. Notwithstanding § ‎1 above, the Company will not indemnify you for any amount you may be obligated to pay in respect of:

7. The Company will not indemnify you for any liability with respect to which you have received payment by virtue of an insurance policy or another indemnification agreement other than for amounts which are in excess of the amounts actually paid to you pursuant to any such insurance policy or other indemnity agreement (including deductible amounts not covered by insurance policies), within the limits set forth in § ‎6 above.

8. Subject to the provisions of §§ ‎6 and ‎7 above, the indemnification hereunder will, in each case, cover all sums of money (100%) that you will be obligated to pay, in those circumstances for which indemnification is permitted under the law.

9. The Company will be entitled to any amount actually received from a third party (including under an insurance) in connection with liabilities indemnified hereunder, to be paid by you to the Company within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of the said amount.

10. In all indemnifiable circumstances, indemnification will be subject to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 You shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any legal proceedings initiated against you and of all possible or threatened legal proceedings without delay following your first becoming aware thereof, and you shall deliver to the Company, or to such person as it shall advise you, without delay all documents you receive or possess in connection with these proceedings or possible or threatened proceedings. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company at the address shown in the signature page of this Letter (or such other address as the Company shall designate to you).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 Similarly, you must notify the Company in writing (addressed as described in § ‎10.1 above) on an ongoing and current basis concerning all events that you suspect may possibly give rise to the initiation of legal proceedings against you.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3 Other than with respect to proceedings that have been initiated against you by the Company or in its name, the Company shall be entitled to undertake the conduct of your defense in respect of such legal proceedings and/or to hand over the conduct thereof to any attorney which the Company may choose for that purpose, except to an attorney that you reasonably deem to be unacceptable. The Company or the attorney as aforesaid shall be entitled, within the context of the conduct as aforesaid, to conclude such proceedings, all as it shall see fit, including by way of settlement. At the request of the Company, you shall execute all documents required to enable the Company and/or its attorney as aforesaid to conduct your defense in your name, and to represent you in all matters connected therewith, in accordance with the aforesaid. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of criminal proceedings the Company and/or the attorneys as aforesaid will not have the right to plead guilty in your name or to agree to a plea-bargain in your name without your consent. Furthermore, in a civil proceeding (whether before a court or as a part of a compromise arrangement), the Company and/or its attorneys will not have the right to admit to any occurrences that are not indemnifiable pursuant to this Letter and/or pursuant to law, without your consent. However, the aforesaid will not prevent the Company and/or its attorneys as aforesaid, with the approval of the Company, to come to a financial arrangement with a plaintiff in a civil proceeding without your consent so long as such arrangement will not be an admittance of an occurrence not fully indemnifiable pursuant to this Letter or pursuant to law and further provided that any such settlement or arrangement does not impose on you any liability or limitation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4 You will fully cooperate with the Company or any attorney as aforesaid in every reasonable way as may be required of you within the context of their conduct of such legal proceedings, including but not limited to the execution of power(s) of attorney and other documents, provided that the Company shall cover all costs incidental thereto such that you will not be required to pay the same or to finance the same yourself.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.5 If, in accordance with § ‎10.3 above, the Company has taken upon itself the conduct of your defense, you shall have the right to employ counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding, but the fees and expenses of such counsel, incurred after the assumption by the Company of the defense thereof, shall be at your expense unless: (i) the employment of counsel by you has been authorized by the Company; or (ii) you and the Company shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and yourself in the conduct of the defense of such action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.6 The Company will have no liability or obligation pursuant to this Letter to indemnify you for any amount expended by you pursuant to any compromise or settlement agreement reached in any suit, demand or other proceeding as aforesaid without the Company's prior written consent to such compromise or settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
