Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

On January 22, 2023, Murchinson and certain funds it advises and/or sub-advises, including the holders of the Managed Positions, Nomis Bay and BPY (collectively, the “Proposing Shareholders”), delivered a letter to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) demanding that the Issuer convene a special general meeting of shareholders of the Issuer (including any adjournments thereof, the “Special Meeting”) pursuant to Section 63(b)(2) of the Companies Law, 1999 (the “Companies Law”) to allow shareholders to vote upon resolutions proposed by the Proposing Shareholders to improve the Issuer’s corporate governance by way of (i) amending certain provisions of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Association, including to allow shareholders to fill Board vacancies and remove directors at a general meeting by a simple majority vote, (ii) removing several members of the Board, namely, the Issuer’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer Yoav Stern, and current directors Oded Gera, Igal Rotem and Dr. Yoav Nissan-Cohen and (iii) appointing two new highly-qualified, independent and experienced director nominees, Kenneth H. Traub and Dr. Joshua Rosensweig, as directors of the Issuer (such demand, the “Special Meeting Demand”). The Special Meeting Demand instructs the Board to immediately, and no later than February 12, 2023, call the Special Meeting, and hold it no later than 35 days thereafter, as required by the Companies Law.

The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.

No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in communications with management and the Board, engaging in discussions with shareholders of the Issuer or other third parties about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment, including potential business combinations or dispositions involving the Issuer or certain of its businesses, making recommendations or proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, board structure (including board composition), potential business combinations or dispositions involving the Issuer or certain of its businesses, or suggestions for improving the Issuer’s financial and/or operational performance, purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, including swaps and other derivative instruments, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon a denominator consisting of a multiple of (i) 12,907,044 Shares outstanding, as of November 8, 2022, which is 5.0% of the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on November 8, 2022 and (ii) twenty.
