RECORD
DATE
Stockholders
of record at the close of business on October 24, 2022, the Record
Date, will be entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at the
meeting.
Why
am I receiving these materials?
The
Company has delivered printed versions of these materials to you by
mail, in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for
use at the Annual Meeting. These materials describe the proposals
on which the Company would like you to vote and also give you
information on these proposals so that you can make an informed
decision.
What is included in these materials?
These
materials include:
|
● |
this
Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting; |
|
● |
the
Proxy Card or voting instruction form for the Annual Meeting;
and |
|
● |
the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2021. |
What is the Proxy Card?
The
Proxy Card enables you to appoint Ronen Luzon, our Chief Executive
Officer, and Or Kles, our Chief Financial Officer, as your
representative at the Annual Meeting. By completing and returning a
Proxy Card, you are authorizing each of Mr. Luzon and Mr. Kles, to
vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your
instructions on the Proxy Card. This way, your shares will be voted
whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting.
What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?
At
our Annual Meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined
in the Notice of Annual Meeting on the cover page of this Proxy
Statement, including (i) the election of two Class 1 directors to
serve on the Company’s board of directors for a term of three years
or until his successor is elected and qualified, for which Arik
Kaufman and Oren Elmaliah are the nominees (the “Director Election
Proposal”); (ii) granting discretionary authority to our board of
directors to (A) amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) to effect one or
more consolidations of the issued and outstanding shares of our
common stock pursuant to which the shares of common stock would be
combined and reclassified into one (1) share of common stock at a
ratio within the range from 1-for-10 up to 1-for-30 (the “Reverse
Stock Split”) and (B) determine whether to arrange for the
disposition of fractional interests by stockholders entitled
thereto, to pay in cash the fair value of fractions of a share of
common stock as of the time when those entitled to receive such
fractions are determined, or to entitle stockholders to receive
from our transfer agent, in lieu of any fractional share, the
number of shares of common stock rounded up to the next whole
number, provided that, (X) that we shall not effect Reverse Stock
Splits that, in the aggregate, exceeds 1-for-30, and (Y) any
Reverse Stock Split is completed no later than December 7, 2023
(the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”); (iii) approval of an
amendment to the My Size 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017
Plan”) to increase the reservation of common stock for issuance
thereunder to 7,225,000 shares from 5,770,000 shares (the “Plan
Amendment Proposal”); (iv) ratification of the appointment of
Somekh Chaikin as our independent public accountant for the fiscal
year ending December 31, 2021 (the “Auditor Reappointment
Proposal”); and (v) a proposal to adjourn the Annual Meeting to a
later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to permit further
solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are
insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the
approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal (the “Adjournment
Proposal”).
What constitutes a quorum?
The
presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of
one third of the number of shares of common stock issued and
outstanding on the Record Date will constitute a quorum permitting
the meeting to conduct its business. As of the Record Date, there
were 36,126,284 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and
outstanding, each share entitled to one vote at the meeting. Thus,
the presence of the holders of 12,042,095 shares of common stock
will be required to establish a quorum. Abstentions, withhold votes
and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to
vote for purposes of determining a quorum.
What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a
beneficial owner of shares held in street name?
Most
of our stockholders hold their shares in an account at a brokerage
firm, bank or other nominee holder, rather than holding share
certificates in their own name. As summarized below, there are some
distinctions between shares held of record and those owned
beneficially in street name.
Stockholder
of Record
If on
October 24, 2022, your shares were registered directly in your name
with our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, you are considered a
stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Notice
of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement was sent directly to you by
the Company. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to
direct the voting of your shares by returning the Proxy Card to us.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please
complete, date, sign and return a Proxy Card to ensure that your
vote is counted.
Beneficial
Owner of Shares Held in Street Name (non-Israeli brokerage firm,
bank, broker-dealer, or other nominee holders)
If on
the Record Date, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage
firm, bank, broker-dealer, or other nominee holder, then you are
considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,”
and the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement was forwarded
to you by that organization. The organization holding your account
is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at
the Annual Meeting. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to
direct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your
account. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you
may not vote these shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless
you receive a valid proxy from the organization.
How do I vote?
Your
vote is very important to us. Whether or not you plan to attend the
Annual Meeting, please vote by proxy in accordance with the
instructions on your proxy card or voting instruction form (from
your broker or other intermediary). There are three convenient ways
of submitting your vote:
|
● |
By
Telephone or Internet - All record holders can vote by
touchtone telephone from the United States using the toll free
telephone number on the proxy card, or over the Internet, using the
procedures and instructions described on the proxy card. “Street
name” holders may vote by telephone or Internet if their bank,
broker or other intermediary makes those methods available, in
which case the bank, broker or other intermediary will enclose the
instructions with the proxy materials. The telephone and Internet
voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’
identities, to allow stockholders to vote their shares, and to
confirm that their instructions have been recorded
properly. |
|
|
|
|
● |
In
Person - All record holders may vote in person at the Annual
Meeting. “Street name” holders may vote in person at the Annual
Meeting if their bank, broker or other intermediary has furnished a
legal proxy. If you are a “street name” holder and would like to
vote your shares by proxy, you will need to ask your bank, broker
or other intermediary to furnish you with an intermediary issued
proxy. You will need to bring the intermediary issued proxy with
you to the Annual Meeting and hand it in with a signed ballot that
will be provided to you at the Annual Meeting. You will not be able
to vote your shares without an intermediary issued proxy. Note that
a broker letter that identifies you as a stockholder is not the
same as an intermediary issued proxy. |
|
|
|
|
● |
By
Mail - You may vote by completing, signing, dating and
returning your proxy card or voting instruction form in the
pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided. |
The
board of directors has appointed Ronen Luzon, our Chief Executive
Officer, and Or Kles, our Chief Financial Officer, to serve as the
proxies for the Annual Meeting.
If
you complete and sign the proxy card but do not provide
instructions for one or more of the proposals, then the designated
proxies will or will not vote your shares as to those proposals, as
described under “What happens if I do not give specific voting
instructions?” below. We do not anticipate that any other matters
will come before the Annual Meeting, but if any other matters
properly come before the meeting, then the designated proxies will
vote your shares in accordance with applicable law and their
judgment.
If
you hold your shares in “street name,” and complete the voting
instruction form provided by your broker or other intermediary
except with respect to one or more of the proposals, then,
depending on the proposal(s), your broker may be unable to vote
your shares with respect to those proposal(s). See “What is a
broker non-vote?” above.
Even
if you currently plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend
that you vote by telephone or Internet or return your proxy card or
voting instructions as described above so that your votes will be
counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting or are
unable to attend.
How are votes counted?
Votes
will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the
Annual Meeting, who will separately count, for the election of
directors, “For,” “Withhold” and broker non-votes and, with respect
to the other proposals, votes “For” and “Against,” abstentions and
broker non-votes.
What is a broker non-vote?
If
your shares are held in street name, you must instruct the
organization who holds your shares how to vote your shares. If you
sign your proxy card but do not provide instructions on how your
broker should vote on “routine” proposals, your broker will vote
your shares as recommended by the board of directors. If a
stockholder does not give timely customer direction to its broker
or nominee with respect to a “non-routine” matter, the shares
represented thereby (“broker non-votes”) cannot be voted by the
broker or nominee, but will be counted in determining whether there
is a quorum. Of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement,
Proposals 1 and 3 are considered “non-routine” matters. Proposals
2, 4 and 5 are considered “routine” matters.
What is an abstention?
An
abstention is a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote
on a proposal. Under Delaware law, abstentions are counted as
shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting.
What happens if I do not give specific voting
instructions?
Stockholders
of Record. If you are a stockholder of record and you sign and
return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions,
then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner
recommended by the board of directors on all matters presented in
this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders may determine in
their discretion with respect to any other matters properly
presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.
Beneficial
Owners of Shares Held in Street Name. If you are a beneficial
owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the
organization that holds your shares with specific voting
instructions, under the rules of various national and regional
securities exchanges, the organization that holds your shares may
generally vote on routine matters, but cannot vote on non-routine
matters.
What
is the required vote for each proposal?
Proposal 1: The affirmative vote of a plurality of the
votes cast at the Annual Meeting is required for the election of
directors. “Plurality” means that the nominees who receive the
largest number of votes cast “for” are elected as directors. As a
result, any shares not voted “for” a particular nominee (whether as
a result of stockholder abstention or a broker non-vote) will not
be counted in such nominee’s favor and will have no effect on the
outcome of the election. The proxies cannot be voted for a greater
number of persons than two.
Proposal 2: The affirmative vote of a majority of our
outstanding shares is required for approval of Proposal 2. Because
the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of our common stock is required for this proposal,
abstentions will have the same effect as votes against this
proposal. Because this proposal is considered a “routine” matter
under applicable stock exchange rules, we do not expect to receive
any broker non-votes on this proposal.
Proposal 3: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes
cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 3. Any
abstention from voting or broker non-vote with respect to such
matter will not count as a vote for or against the amendment and
will not affect the outcome of the proposal.
Proposal 4: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes
cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 4.
Stockholder ratification of the selection of Somekh Chaikin as the
Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 is not required by our Bylaws
or other applicable legal requirement; however, our board is
submitting the selection of Somekh Chaikin to stockholders for
ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event
that the stockholders do not approve the selection of Somekh
Chaikin, the audit committee will reconsider the appointment of the
independent registered accounting firm. Even if the selection is
ratified, the audit committee in its discretion may direct the
appointment of a different independent registered accounting firm
at any time during the year if the audit committee believes that
such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its
stockholders. Abstentions are considered votes present and entitled
to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a
vote “against” the proposal. Because this proposal is considered a
“routine” matter under applicable stock exchange rules, we do not
expect to receive any broker non-votes on this proposal.
Proposal 5: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes
cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 5. Any
abstention from voting or broker non-vote with respect to such
matter will not count as a vote for or against the amendment and
will not affect the outcome of the proposal.
What are the board’s recommendations?
The
board’s recommendation is set forth together with the description
of each item in this Proxy Statement. In summary, the board
recommends a vote:
|
● |
“FOR”
the Director Election Proposal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
“FOR”
the approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
“FOR”
the approval of the Plan Amendment Proposal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
“FOR”
approval of the Auditor Reappointment Proposal; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
“FOR”
approval of the Adjournment Proposal. |
With
respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting,
the proxy holder will vote as recommended by the board of directors
or, if no recommendation is given, in his own
discretion.
Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal
Holders
of shares of our common stock do not have appraisal rights under
Delaware law or under the governing documents of the Company in
connection with this solicitation.
How are proxy materials delivered to households?
With
respect to eligible stockholders who share a single address, we may
send only one Notice or other Annual Meeting materials to that
address unless we receive instructions to the contrary from any
stockholder at that address. This practice, known as
“householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage
costs. However, if a stockholder of record residing at such address
wishes to receive a separate notice or proxy statement in the
future, he or she may contact My Size, Inc., 4 Hayarden St., P.O.B.
1026, Airport City, Israel, 7010000, Attention: Corporate Secretary
or by calling us at +972 3 600 9030. Eligible stockholders of
record receiving multiple copies of our Notice or other Annual
Meeting materials can request householding by contacting us in the
same manner. Stockholders who own shares through a bank, broker or
other intermediary can request householding by contacting the
intermediary.
We
hereby undertake to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request,
a copy of Notice or other Annual Meeting materials to a stockholder
at a shared address to which a single copy of the document was
delivered. Requests should be directed to the Corporate Secretary
at the address or phone number set forth above.
When
are Stockholder Proposals Due for the 2022 Annual
Meeting?
Stockholders
who wish to present proposals for inclusion in our proxy materials
for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2023 Annual
Meeting”) may do so by following the procedures prescribed in
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in
company-sponsored proxy materials. To be eligible, the stockholder
proposals must be received by our corporate secretary on or before
July 7, 2023. Although the board will consider stockholder
proposals, we reserve the right to omit from our proxy statement,
or to vote against, stockholder proposals that we are not required
to include under the Exchange Act, including Rule 14a-8.
Our bylaws govern the submission of nominations for director or
other business proposals that a stockholder wishes to have
considered at a meeting of stockholders, but which are not included
in our proxy statement for that meeting. Any appropriate proposal
submitted by a stockholder and intended to be presented at the 2023
Annual Meeting must be submitted in writing to the Company’s
Secretary at 4 Hayarden St., P.O.B. 1026, Airport City, Israel
7010000 and received no earlier than September 8, 2023, and no
later than August 9, 2023. However, if the date of the 2023 Annual
Meeting is convened more than 30 days before, or delayed by more
than 60 days after, December 7, 2023, to be considered at our 2022
Annual Meeting, a stockholder proposal must be submitted in writing
to the Company’s Secretary at 4 Hayarden St., P.O.B. 1026, Airport
City, Israel 7010000 a stockholder proposal must be submitted in
writing to the Company’s Secretary at 4 Hayarden St., P.O.B. 1026,
Airport City, Israel 7010000 and received no earlier than the 120th
day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the later of
the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following
the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is
first made by the Company.
To
comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to
solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our
nominees at the 2023 annual meeting must provide notice that sets
forth the information required by Rule 14a19 under the Exchange Act
no later than October 8, 2023. If the date of the 2023 annual
meeting is changed by more than 30 calendar days from the
anniversary date of the 2022 annual meeting, however, then the
stockholder must provide notice by the later of 60 calendar days
prior to the date of the 2023 annual meeting or the 10th calendar
day following the date on which public announcement of the date of
the 2023 annual meeting is first made.
A
copy of our bylaws may be obtained by accessing our public filings
on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. You may also contact our
Secretary at our principal executive offices for a copy of the
relevant bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making
stockholder proposals and nominating director
candidates.
ACTIONS
TO BE TAKEN AT THE MEETING
PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION
OF TWO DIRECTORS
Our
board of directors are classified into three classes with staggered
three-year terms (with the exception of the expiration of the
initial Class I and Class II directors), as follows:
|
● |
Class
I, comprised of two directors, initially Arik Kaufman and Oren
Elmaliah (with their initial terms expiring at the Annual Meeting
and who are the nominees for re-election and members of such class
serving successive three-year terms); |
|
● |
Class
II, comprised of two directors, initially Oron Branitzky and Guy
Zimmerman (with their initial terms expiring at our 2023 annual
meeting of stockholders and members of such class serving
successive three-year terms); and |
|
● |
Class
III, comprised of one director, initially Ronen Luzon (with his
initial term expiring at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders
and members of such class serving successive three-year
terms). |
To
preserve the classified board structure, a director elected by the
board of directors to fill a vacancy holds office until the next
election of the class for which such director has been chosen, and
until that director’s successor has been elected and qualified or
until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or
removal.
Biographical

election to the board of directors and additional directors is set
forth below. Except as indicated below, none of our directors is a
director in any other reporting companies. We are not aware of any
proceedings to which any of our directors, or any associate of any
such director is a party adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries

subsidiaries.

as chairman of the corporate governance and nominations committee.
The nominating and corporate governance committee acts under a
written charter, which more specifically sets forth its

meetings. The nominating and corporate governance committee charter
is available on our website
www.mysizeid.com.
The
nominating and corporate governance committee develops, recommends
and oversees implementation of corporate governance principles for
us and considers recommendations for director nominees. The
nominating and corporate governance committee also considers
stockholder recommendations for director nominees that are properly
received in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the
SEC. Our stockholders that wish to nominate a director for election
to the board of directors should follow the procedures set forth in
our bylaws. See “When are Stockholder Proposals Due for the 2023
Annual Meeting?”
The
nominating and corporate governance committee will consider persons
identified by its members, management, stockholders, investment
bankers and others. The guidelines for selecting nominees, which
are specified in the nominating committee charter, generally
provide that persons to be nominated:
|
● |
should
be accomplished in his or her field and have a reputation, both
personal and professional, that is consistent with our image and
reputation; |
|
● |
should
have relevant experience and expertise and would be able to provide
insights and practical wisdom based upon that experience and
expertise; and |
|
● |
should
be of high moral and ethical character and would be willing to
apply sound, objective and independent business judgment, and to
assume broad fiduciary responsibility. |
The
nominating and corporate governance committee will consider a
number of qualifications relating to management and leadership
experience, background and integrity and professionalism in
evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of
directors. The nominating and corporate governance committee may
require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or
accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from
time to time and will also consider the overall experience and
makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board of
directors members. The nominating and corporate governance
committee will not distinguish among nominees recommended by
stockholders and other persons.

Stockholder
Communications with the Board of Directors
Historically,
we have not provided a formal process related to stockholder
communications with the board. Nevertheless, every effort has been
made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the
board or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate
responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner.
Stockholders or other interested parties may communicate with any
director by writing to them at My Size, Inc., 4 Hayarden St.,
P.O.B. 1026, Airport City, Israel, 7010000, Attention: Corporate
Secretary.
Code
of Conduct and Ethics
We
have a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all our
employees. The text of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is
publicly available on our website at www.mysizeid.com. Information
contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website does not
constitute a part of this report and is not incorporated by
reference herein. Disclosure regarding any amendments to, or
waivers from, provisions of the code of conduct and ethics that
apply to our directors, principal executive and financial officers
will be posted on the “Investors-Corporate Governance” section of
our website at www.mysizeid.com or will be included in a Current
Report on Form 8-K, which we will file within four business days
following the date of the amendment or waiver.
Board
Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Although
we do not require separation of the offices of the Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer, we have in the past had a
different person serving in each such role. The position of
Chairman is currently vacant. The decision whether to combine or
separate these positions depends on what our board deems to be in
the long term interest of stockholders in light of prevailing
circumstances. The separation of duties provides strong leadership
for the board while allowing the Chief Executive Officer to be the
leader of the Company, focusing on its customers, employees, and
operations. Our board of directors believes the Company is
well-served by this flexible leadership structure and that the
combination or separation of these positions should continue to be
considered on an ongoing basis.
Anti-hedging
Policy
Our
insider trading policy prohibits directors, officers and other
employees or contractors from engaging in short sales, transactions
in put or call options, hedging transactions or other inherently
speculative transactions with respect to our stock at any
time.

On

of the Company reduced the exercise price of outstanding options of
employees and directors of the Company for the purchase of an
aggregate of 140,237 shares of common stock of the Company (with
exercise prices ranging between $18.15 and $9.15) to $1.04 per
share, which was the closing price for the Company’s common stock
on May 22, 2020, and extended the term of the foregoing options for
an additional one year from the original date of
expiration. |
PROPOSAL NO. 2
GRANT
OF AUTHORITY FOR A REVERSE SPLIT OF
THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK
Our
board deems it advisable and in the best interest of the Company
that the board be granted the discretionary authority to amend the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock
Split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock as
described below (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”).
The
form of Reverse Stock Split Amendment to be filed with the Delaware
Secretary of State is set forth in Appendix A
(subject to any changes required by applicable, the Company may
file one or more amendments with the Delaware Secretary of State to
effect multiple approved proposals).
Approval
of the proposal would permit (but not require) our board of
directors to effect one or more reverse stock splits of our issued
and outstanding common stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-10
and not more than 1-for-30, with the exact ratio to be set at a
number within this range as determined by our board of directors in
its sole discretion, provided that the board of directors
determines to effect the Reverse Stock Split and such amendment is
filed with the appropriate authorities in the State of Delaware no
later than December 7, 2023. The Company shall not effect Reverse
Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceeds 1-for-30. We believe
that enabling our board of directors to set the ratio within the
stated range will provide us with the flexibility to implement the
Reverse Stock Split in a manner designed to maximize the
anticipated benefits for our stockholders. In determining a ratio,
if any, our board of directors may consider, among other things,
factors such as:
|
● |
the
initial or continuing listing requirements of various stock
exchanges, including the Nasdaq Capital Market; |
|
● |
the
historical trading price and trading volume of our common
stock; |
|
● |
the
number of shares of our common stock outstanding; |
|
● |
the
then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our common
stock and the anticipated impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the
trading market for our common stock; |
|
● |
the
anticipated impact of a particular ratio on our ability to reduce
administrative and transactional costs; and |
|
● |
prevailing
general market and economic conditions. |
Our
board of directors reserves the right to elect to abandon the
Reverse Stock Split, including any or all proposed reverse stock
split ratios, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the
Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the
Company and its stockholders.
Depending
on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Split determined by our board of
directors, no less than 10 and no more than 30 shares of existing
common stock, as determined by our board of directors, will be
combined into one share of common stock. The Company shall not
effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceeds 1-for
30. Our board of directors will have the discretionary authority to
determine whether to arrange for the disposition of fractional
interests by holder entitled thereto, to pay in cash the fair value
of fractions of a share as of the time when those entitled to
receive such fractions are determined, or to entitle holders to
receive from the Company transfer agent, in lieu of any fractional
share, the number of shares rounded up to the next whole number.
The amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a
Reverse Stock Split, if any, will include only the reverse split
ratio determined by our board of directors to be in the best
interests of our stockholders and all of the other proposed
amendments at different ratios will be abandoned.
Reasons
for the Reverse Stock Split; Potential Consequences of the Reverse
Stock Split
Our
primary reasons for approving and recommending the Reverse Stock
Split are to increase the per share price and bid price of our
common stock to regain compliance with the continued listing
requirements of Nasdaq and make the common stock more attractive to
certain institutional investors, which would provide for a stronger
investor base.
On
January 3, 2022, we were notified by the Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications that we are not in compliance with the minimum bid
price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for
continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The notification
provided that we had 180 calendar days, or until July 5, 2022, to
regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule. We did not
regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule during the first
180 calendar day compliance period and submitted a written request
to the Nasdaq to afford us an additional 180-day compliance period
to cure the deficiency. On July 6, 2022, we were notified by Nasdaq
that we were afforded an additional 180-day compliance period, or
until January 2, 2023 to regain compliance. If at any time before
January 2, 2023, the bid price of our common stock is at least
$1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days,
Nasdaq is expected to provide written confirmation of compliance to
us and the listing compliance matter will be closed. If we fail to
regain compliance during the second compliance period, then Nasdaq
will notify us of its determination to delist our common stock, at
which point we will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting
determination to a Hearings Panel.
Reducing
the number of outstanding shares of common stock should, absent
other factors, generally increase the per share market price of the
common stock. Although the intent of the Reverse Stock Split is to
increase the price of the common stock, there can be no assurance,
however, that even if the Reverse Stock Split is effected, that the
bid price of our common stock will be sufficient for us to maintain
compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement in the
event that our common stock does not, in the future, comply with
the minimum bid price requirement.
In
addition, we believe the Reverse Stock Split will make our common
stock more attractive to a broader range of investors, as we
believe that the current market price of our common stock may
prevent certain institutional investors, professional investors and
other members of the investing public from purchasing stock. Many
brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies
and practices that either prohibit them from investing in
low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from
recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Furthermore,
some of those policies and practices may function to make the
processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive
to brokers. Moreover, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced
stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price
than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price
per share of common stock can result in individual stockholders
paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their
total share value than would be the case if the share price were
higher. We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our
common stock a more attractive and cost effective investment for
many investors, which in turn would enhance the liquidity of the
holders of common stock.
Reducing
the number of outstanding shares of our common stock through the
Reverse Stock Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase
the per share market price of our common stock. However, other
factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the
market perception of our business may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock. As a result, there can be no assurance
that the Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in the
intended benefits described above, that the market price of our
common stock will increase following the Reverse Stock Split, that
as a result of the Reverse Stock Split we will be able to meet or
maintain a bid price over the minimum bid price requirement of
Nasdaq or that the market price of our common stock will not
decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the
market price per share of our common stock after the Reverse Stock
Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of
shares of our common stock outstanding before the Reverse Stock
Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our common
stock after the Reverse Stock Split may be lower than the total
market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split.
Procedure
for Implementing the Reverse Stock Split
The
Reverse Stock Split will become effective upon the filing or such
later time as specified in the filing (the “Effective Time”) of the
Reverse Stock Split Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State.
The form of the Reverse Stock Split Amendment is attached hereto as
Appendix A. The exact timing of the filing of the
Reverse Stock Split Amendment and the ratio of the Reverse Stock
Split (within the approved range) will be determined by our board
of directors based on its evaluation as to when such action and at
what ratio will be the most advantageous to the Company and our
stockholders. In addition, our board of directors reserves the
right, notwithstanding stockholder approval and without further
action by the stockholders, to elect not to proceed with the
Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to filing the Reverse
Stock Split Amendment, our board of directors, in its sole
discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest
and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with the
Reverse Stock Split. If the Reverse Stock Split Amendment has not
been filed with the Delaware Secretary of State by December 7,
2023, our board of directors will abandon the Reverse Stock
Split.
Effect
of the Reverse Stock Split on Holders of Outstanding Common
Stock
Depending
on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Split determined by our board of
directors, a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 30 shares in aggregate
of existing common stock will be combined into one new share of
common stock. Based on 36,126,284 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding as of the Record Date, immediately following the
reverse split the Company would have approximately 3,612,628 shares
of common stock issued and outstanding (without giving effect to
rounding for fractional shares) if the ratio for the reverse split
is 1-for-10, approximately 1,806,314 shares of common stock issued
and outstanding (without giving effect to rounding for fractional
shares) if the ratio for the reverse split is 1-for-20, and
approximately 1,204,209 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding (without giving effect to rounding for fractional
shares) if the ratio for the reverse split is 1-for-30, which is
the aggregate ratio allowed under this proposal. Any other ratios
selected within such range would result in a number of shares of
common stock issued and outstanding following the transaction
between 1,204,209 and 3,612,628 shares. The foregoing does not give
effect to (i) 1,045,277 shares of common stock issuable upon
exercise of outstanding options as of the Record Date and (ii)
7,199,103 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of
outstanding warrants as of the Record Date.
The
actual number of shares issued after giving effect to the Reverse
Stock Split, if implemented, will depend on the Reverse Stock Split
ratio and the number of Reverse Stock Splits, if any, that are
ultimately determined by our board of directors.
The
Reverse Stock Split will affect all holders of our common stock
uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage
ownership interest in the Company, except that as described below
in “— Fractional Shares,” record holders of common stock otherwise
entitled to a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock
Split will be rounded up to the next whole number. In addition, the
Reverse Stock Split will not affect any stockholder’s proportionate
voting power (subject to the treatment of fractional
shares).
The
Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning “odd
lots” of less than 100 shares of common stock. Odd lot shares may
be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other
costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher
than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of
100 shares.
After
the Effective Time, our common stock will have a new Committee on
Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (“CUSIP”) number,
which is a number used to identify our common stock, and stock
certificates with the older CUSIP numbers will need to be exchanged
for stock certificates with the new CUSIP number by following the
procedures described below. After the Effective Time, we will
continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and our common
stock will continue to be quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market under
the symbol “MYSZ”. The Reverse Stock Split is not intended as, and
will not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” as
described by Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act.
After
the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split, the post-split
market price of our common stock may be less than the pre-split
price multiplied by the Reverse Stock Split ratio. In addition, a
reduction in number of shares outstanding may impair the liquidity
for our common stock, which may reduce the value of our common
stock.
Authorized
Shares of Common Stock
The
Reverse Stock Split will not change the number of authorized shares
of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s Certificate of
Incorporation. Because the number of issued and outstanding shares
of common stock will decrease, the number of shares of common stock
remaining available for issuance will increase. Currently, under
our Certificate of Incorporation, our authorized capital stock
consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock.
Subject
to limitations imposed by Nasdaq, the additional shares available
for issuance may be issued without stockholder approval at any
time, in the sole discretion of our board of directors. The
authorized and unissued shares may be issued for cash, for
acquisitions or for any other purpose that is deemed in the best
interests of the Company.
By
increasing the number of authorized but unissued shares of common
stock, the Reverse Stock Split could, under certain circumstances,
have an anti-takeover effect, although this is not the intent of
the board of directors. For example, it may be possible for the
board of directors to delay or impede a takeover or transfer of
control of the Company by causing such additional authorized but
unissued shares to be issued to holders who might side with the
board of directors in opposing a takeover bid that the board of
directors determines is not in the best interests of the Company or
its stockholders. The Reverse Stock Split therefore may have the
effect of discouraging unsolicited takeover attempts. By
potentially discouraging initiation of any such unsolicited
takeover attempts the Reverse Stock Split may limit the opportunity
for the Company’s stockholders to dispose of their shares at the
higher price generally available in takeover attempts or that may
be available under a merger proposal. The Reverse Stock Split may
have the effect of permitting the Company’s current management,
including the current board of directors, to retain its position,
and place it in a better position to resist changes that
stockholders may wish to make if they are dissatisfied with the
conduct of the Company’s business. However, the board of directors
is not aware of any attempt to take control of the Company and the
board of directors has not approved the Reverse Stock Split with
the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover
device.
Beneficial
Holders of Common Stock (i.e. stockholders who hold in street
name)
Upon
the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, we intend to treat
shares held by stockholders through a bank, broker, custodian or
other nominee in the same manner as registered stockholders whose
shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or
other nominees will be instructed to effect the Reverse Stock Split
for their beneficial holders holding our common stock in street
name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees
may have different procedures than registered stockholders for
processing the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold shares of
our common stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee
and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact
their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.
Registered
“Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (i.e. stockholders that are
registered on the transfer agent’s books and records but do not
hold stock certificates)
Certain
of our registered holders of common stock may hold some or all of
their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer
agent. These stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing
their ownership of the common stock. They are, however, provided
with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in
their accounts.
Stockholders
who hold shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer
agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic)
to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split common stock,
subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional
shares.
Holders
of Certificated Shares of Common Stock
Stockholders
holding shares of our common stock in certificated form will be
sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent after the Effective
Time. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a
stockholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s)
representing shares of our common stock (the “Old Certificates”) to
the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the
appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split
common stock (the “New Certificates”). No New Certificates will be
issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered all
Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed
letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. No stockholder will
be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or
its Old Certificates. Stockholders will then receive a New
Certificate(s) representing the number of whole shares of common
stock that they are entitled as a result of the Reverse Stock
Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described
below. Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates
held by stockholders to be cancelled and only to represent the
number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split common stock to
which these stockholders are entitled, subject to the treatment of
fractional shares. Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange,
whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of stock,
will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. If an Old
Certificate has a restrictive legend on the back of the Old
Certificate(s), the New Certificate will be issued with the same
restrictive legends that are on the back of the Old
Certificate(s).
The
Company expects that our transfer agent will act as an exchange
agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock
certificates. No service charges will be payable by holders of
shares of common stock in connection with the exchange of
certificates. All of such expenses will be borne by the
Company.
STOCKHOLDERS
SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT
ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
Fractional
Shares
The
board of directors will have the discretionary authority to
determine whether to arrange for the disposition of fractional
interests by stockholders entitled thereto, to pay in cash the fair
value of fractions of a share as of the time when those entitled to
receive such fractions are determined, or to entitle stockholders
to receive from the Company’s transfer agent, in lieu of any
fractional share, the number of shares rounded up to the next whole
number.
If
the board of directors determines to arrange for the disposition of
fractional interests by stockholders entitled thereto or to pay in
cash the fair value of fractions of a share as of the time when
those entitled to receive such fractions are determined,
stockholders who would otherwise hold fractional shares because the
number of shares of common stock they hold before the Reverse Stock
Split is not evenly divisible by the ratio ultimately selected by
the board of directors will be entitled to receive cash (without
interest or deduction) in lieu of such fractional shares from
either: (i) the Company, upon receipt by the transfer agent of a
properly completed and duly executed transmittal letter and, where
shares are held in certificated form, upon due surrender of any
certificate previously representing a fractional share, in an
amount equal to such holder’s fractional share based upon the
closing sale price of the common stock on the trading day
immediately prior to the Effective Time as reported on the Nasdaq
Capital Market, or other principal market of the common stock, as
applicable, as of the date the Reverse Stock Split is effected; or
(ii) the transfer agent, upon receipt by the transfer agent of a
properly completed and duly executed transmittal letter and, where
shares are held in certificated form, the surrender of all old
certificate(s), in an amount equal to the proceeds attributable to
the sale of such fractional shares following the aggregation and
sale by the transfer agent of all fractional shares otherwise
issuable. If the board of directors determines to dispose of
fractional interests pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Company
expects that the transfer agent would conduct the sale in an
orderly fashion at a reasonable pace and that it may take several
days to sell all of the aggregated fractional shares of common
stock. In this event, such holders would be entitled to an amount
equal to their pro rata share of the proceeds of such sale. The
Company will be responsible for any brokerage fees or commissions
related to the transfer agent’s open market sales of shares that
would otherwise be fractional shares.
The
ownership of a fractional share interest following the Reverse
Stock Split will not give the holder any voting, dividend or other
rights, except to receive the cash payment, or, if the so
determines, to receive the number of shares rounded up to the next
whole number, as described above.
Stockholders
should be aware that, under the escheat laws of various
jurisdictions, sums due for fractional interests that are not
timely claimed after the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split
may be required to be paid to the designated agent for each such
jurisdiction, unless correspondence has been received by the
Company or the transfer agent concerning ownership of such funds
within the time permitted in such jurisdiction. Thereafter, if
applicable, stockholders otherwise entitled to receive such funds,
but who do not receive them due to, for example, their failure to
timely comply with the transfer agent’s instructions, will have to
seek to obtain such funds directly from the state to which they
were paid.
Effect
of the Reverse Stock Split on Employee and Consultant Plans,
Options, Warrants, and Convertible or Exchangeable
Securities
Based
upon the Reverse Stock Split ratio determined by the board of
directors, proportionate adjustments are generally required to be
made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares
issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding
options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities entitling
the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of
common stock. This would result in approximately the same aggregate
price being required to be paid under such options, warrants,
convertible or exchangeable securities upon exercise, and
approximately the same value of shares of common stock being
delivered upon such exercise, exchange or conversion, immediately
following the Reverse Stock Split as was the case immediately
preceding the Reverse Stock Split. The number of shares reserved
for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately
based upon the Reverse Stock Split determined by the board of
directors, subject to our treatment of fractional
shares.
Accounting
Matters
The
Reverse Stock Split Amendment will not affect the par value of our
common stock per share, which will remain $0.001 par value per
share. As a result, as of the Effective Time, the stated capital
attributable to common stock and the additional paid-in capital
account on our balance sheet, on aggregate, will not change due to
the Reverse Stock Split. Reported per share net income or loss will
be higher because there will be fewer shares of common stock
outstanding.
Certain
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock
Split
The
following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income
tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to holders of our
common stock
Unless
otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the
tax consequences only to a beneficial owner of our common stock
that is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a
corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or
any state thereof or the District of Columbia or otherwise subject
to U.S. federal income taxation on a net income basis in respect of
our common stock (a “U.S. holder”). A trust may also be a U.S.
holder if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision
over administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or
(2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S.
person. An estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income
taxation regardless of its source may also be a U.S. holder. This
summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be
relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations
that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to
certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be
known by investors. This summary also does not address the tax
consequences to (i) persons that may be subject to special
treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks,
insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment
companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations,
U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax,
traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in
securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our common stock
as part of a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging,”
“conversion” or other integrated investment transaction for federal
income tax purposes, or (iii) persons that do not hold our common
stock as “capital assets” (generally, property held for
investment).
If a
partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S.
federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our common
stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the
partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and
the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our
common stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult
their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax
consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.
This
summary is based on the provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury
regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as
in effect as of the date of this information statement. Subsequent
developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in
law or differing interpretations, which may be applied
retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.
PLEASE
CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE,
LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE
STOCK SPLIT IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THE INTERNAL
REVENUE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING
JURISDICTION.
U.S.
Holders
The
Reverse Stock Split should be treated as a recapitalization for
U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a stockholder
generally will not recognize gain or loss on the Reverse Stock
Split, except to the extent of cash, if any, received in lieu of a
fractional share interest in the post-Reverse Stock Split shares.
The aggregate tax basis of the post-split shares received will be
equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-split shares exchanged
therefore (excluding any portion of the holder’s basis allocated to
fractional shares), and the holding period of the post-split shares
received will include the holding period of the pre-split shares
exchanged. A holder of the pre-split shares who receives cash will
generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between
the portion of the tax basis of the pre-split shares allocated to
the fractional share interest and the cash received. Such gain or
loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be short term if the
pre-split shares were held for one year or less and long term if
held more than one year. No gain or loss will be recognized by us
as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
No
Appraisal Rights
Under
Delaware law and our charter documents, holders of our common stock
will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights with
respect to the Reverse Stock Split.
RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 2:
THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR GRANT OF AUTHORITY FOR A
REVERSE SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK.
PROPOSAL NO. 3
APPROVAL
OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE MY SIZE, INC. 2017 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
TO
INCREASE
THE RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER TO
7,225,000
SHARES FROM 5,770,000 SHARES
Our
2017 Plan was approved by our board of directors and by our
stockholders and went into effect as of March 21, 2017. On July 3,
2018, our stockholders voted to increase the reservation of our
common stock for issuance under the 2017 Plan to 200,000 shares
from 133,334 shares; on August 10, 2020, our stockholders voted to
increase the reservation of our common stock for issuance
thereunder to 1,450,000 shares from 200,000 shares; and on December
30, 2021, our stockholders voted to increase the reservation of
common stock for issuance under the 2017 Plan to 5,770,000 shares
from 1,450,000 shares.
On
October 23, 2022, our compensation committee recommended to the
board of directors to increase the number of shares available for
issuance under the 2017 Plan by 1,455,000 shares to 7,225,000
shares from 5,770,000 shares, subject to stockholder approval of
the amendment to the 2017 Plan.
Our
board of directors deems it advisable and in the best interest of
the Company to increase the number of shares available for issuance
under the 2017 Plan by 1,455,000 shares to 7,225,000 shares from
5,770,000 shares to attract and retain key personnel and to provide
a means for directors, officers, managers and employees to acquire
and maintain an interest in the Company, which interest may be
measured by reference to the value of its common stock.
A
copy of the proposed amendment is attached hereto as Appendix
B.
Reasons
for the Proposed Plan Amendment
We
believe that operation of the 2017 Plan is a necessary and powerful
tool in attracting and retaining the services of key employees, key
contractors, and outside directors in a competitive labor market,
which is essential to our long-term growth and success. We also
need to ensure that we can continue to provide an incentive to our
current employees, contractors and outside directors, many of whom
hold outstanding options that were previously awarded under the
2017 Plan with exercise prices above the current fair market value
of our common stock. We have strived to use our 2017 Plan resources
effectively and maintain an appropriate balance between stockholder
interests and the ability to recruit and retain valuable employees.
However, we believe that there is an insufficient number of shares
remaining under our 2017 Plan to meet our projected needs which
will impair our ability to both attract and retain key persons
going forward. Accordingly, it is the judgment of our board of
directors that increasing the number of shares of common stock
available for issuance under the 2017 Plan is in the best interest
of the Company and its stockholders.
Description
of Our 2017 Plan
Set
forth below is a summary of the 2017 Plan, but this summary is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2017
Plan.
Shares Available
The
2017 Plan currently authorizes the issuance of 5,770,000 shares of
common stock. As of the Record Date, an aggregate of 5,507,231
shares have been granted under the 2017 Plan and 262,769 shares
were available for future awards under the 2017 Plan.
If an
award is forfeited, canceled, or if any option terminates, expires
or lapses without being exercised, the common stock subject to such
award will again be made available for future grant. However,
shares that are used to pay the exercise price of an option or that
are withheld to satisfy the participant’s tax withholding
obligation will not be available for re-grant under the 2017
Plan.
If
there is any change in the Company’s corporate capitalization or
structure, the 2017 Plan Committee (as defined below) in its sole
discretion may make substitutions or adjustments to the number of
shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan,
the number of shares covered by awards then outstanding under the
2017 Plan, the limitations on awards under the 2017 Plan, the
exercise price of outstanding options and such other equitable
substitution or adjustments as it may determine
appropriate.
The
2017 Plan will have a term of ten years and no further awards may
be granted under the 2017 Plan after that date.
Administration
The
Company’s compensation committee (the “2017 Plan Committee”)
administers the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan Committee has the
authority, without limitation to (i) to designate participants to
receive awards, (ii) determine the types of awards to be granted to
participants, (iii) determine the number of shares of common stock
to be covered by awards, (iv) determine the terms and conditions of
any awards granted under the 2017 Plan, (v) determine to what
extent and under what circumstances awards may be settled in cash,
shares of common stock, other securities, other awards or other
property, or canceled, forfeited or suspended, (vi) determine
whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances the delivery
of cash, common stock, other securities, other awards or other
property and other amounts payable with respect to an award shall
be made; (vii) interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency
in, settle any controversy regarding, correct any defect in and/or
complete any omission in the 2017 Plan and any instrument or
agreement relating to, or award granted under, the 2017 Plan;
(viii) establish, amend, suspend, or waive any rules and
regulations and appoint such agents as the 2017 Plan Committee
shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the 2017
Plan; (ix) accelerate the vesting or exercisability of, payment for
or lapse of restrictions on, awards; (x) reprice existing awards or
to grant awards in connection with or in consideration of the
cancellation of an outstanding award with a higher price; and (xi)
make any other determination and take any other action that the
2017 Plan Committee deems necessary or desirable for the
administration of the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan Committee has full
discretion to administer and interpret the 2017 Plan and to adopt
such rules, regulations and procedures as it deems necessary or
advisable and to determine, among other things, the time or times
at which the awards may be exercised and whether and under what
circumstances an award may be exercised.
Eligibility
Employees,
directors and officers of the Company or their affiliates are
eligible to participate in the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan Committee
has the sole and complete authority to determine who will be
granted an award under the 2017 Plan; however, it may delegate such
authority to one or more officers of the Company under the
circumstances set forth in the 2017 Plan.
Awards Available for Grant
The
Committee may grant awards of non-qualified stock options,
incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”),
restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock bonus
awards, performance compensation awards (including cash bonus
awards) or any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding, the
Committee may not grant to any one person in any one calendar year
awards (i) for more than 50% of the available shares in the
aggregate or (ii) payable in cash in an amount exceeding
$10,000,000 in the aggregate.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The
following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income
tax consequences of the grant and exercise and vesting of awards
under the 2017 Plan and the disposition of shares acquired pursuant
to the exercise of such awards. This summary is intended to reflect
the current provisions of the Code and the regulations thereunder.
However, this summary is not intended to be a complete statement of
applicable law, nor does it address foreign, state, local and
payroll tax considerations. Moreover, the U.S. federal income tax
consequences to any particular participant may differ from those
described herein by reason of, among other things, the particular
circumstances of such participant.
Pursuant
to Section 15(e) of the 2017 Plan, the 2017 Plan Committee may, in
its sole discretion, amend the terms of the 2017 Plan or
outstanding awards (or establish a sub-plan) with respect to such
participants in order to conform such terms with the requirements
of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for
such participants or the Company. The Company operates in Israel,
and the applicable tax consequences for participants may be Israeli
tax consequences.
Options
There
are a number of requirements that must be met for a particular
option to be treated as an incentive stock option. One such
requirement is that common stock acquired through the exercise of
an incentive stock option cannot be disposed of before the later of
(i) two years from the date of grant of the option, or (ii) one
year from the date of its exercise. Holders of incentive stock
option will generally incur no federal income tax liability at the
time of grant or upon exercise of those options. However, the
spread at exercise will be an “item of tax preference,” which may
give rise to “alternative minimum tax” liability for the taxable
year in which the exercise occurs. If the holder does not dispose
of the shares before the later of two years following the date of
grant and one year following the date of exercise, the difference
between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition
of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as
the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no
deduction will be allowed to the Company for federal income tax
purposes in connection with the grant or exercise of the incentive
stock option. If, within two years following the date of grant or
within one year following the date of exercise, the holder of
shares acquired through the exercise of an incentive stock option
disposes of those shares, the participant will generally realize
taxable compensation at the time of such disposition equal to the
difference between the exercise price and the lesser of the fair
market value of the share on the date of exercise or the amount
realized on the subsequent disposition of the shares, and that
amount will generally be deductible by the Company for federal
income tax purposes, subject to the possible limitations on
deductibility under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for
compensation paid to executives designated in those Sections.
Finally, if an otherwise incentive stock option becomes first
exercisable in any one year for shares having an aggregate value in
excess of $100,000 (based on the date of grant value), the portion
of the incentive stock option in respect of those excess shares
will be treated as a non-qualified stock option for federal income
tax purposes.
No
income will be realized by a participant upon grant of a
non-qualified stock option. Upon the exercise of a non-qualified
stock option, the participant will recognize ordinary compensation
income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market
value of the underlying exercised shares over the option exercise
price paid at the time of exercise. Such income will be subject to
income tax withholdings, and the participant will be required to
pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in
respect to such income. The Company will be able to deduct this
same amount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such
deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code
for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those
Sections.
Restricted Stock
A
participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of an award
of restricted stock unless the participant otherwise elects to be
taxed at the time of grant pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code.
On the date an award of restricted stock becomes transferable or is
no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the
participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to
the difference between the fair market value of the shares on that
date over the amount the participant paid for such shares, if any.
Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the
participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of
any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. If the
participant made an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the
participant will recognize ordinary compensation income at the time
of grant equal to the difference between the fair market value of
the shares on the date of grant over the amount the participant
paid for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in
the value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale
of the shares. Special rules apply to the receipt and disposition
of restricted shares received by officers and directors who are
subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The Company will be
able to deduct, at the same time as it is recognized by the
participant, the amount of taxable compensation to the participant
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be
limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation
paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.
Restricted Stock Units
A
participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of a
restricted stock unit award. Rather, upon the delivery of shares or
cash pursuant to a restricted stock unit award, the participant
will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the fair
market value of the number of shares (or the amount of cash) the
participant actually receives with respect to the award. Such
income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the
participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of
any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. The
Company will be able to deduct the amount of taxable compensation
recognized by the participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
but the deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of
the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in
those Sections.
SARs
No
income will be realized by a participant upon grant of a SAR. Upon
the exercise of a SAR, the participant will recognize ordinary
compensation income in an amount equal to the fair market value of
the payment received in respect of the SAR. Such income will be
subject to income tax withholdings, and the participant will be
required to pay to the Company the amount of any required
withholding taxes in respect to such income. The Company will be
able to deduct this same amount for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and
162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives
designated in those Sections.
Stock Bonus Awards
A
participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to
the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the
date the shares of common stock subject to the award are
transferred to the participant over the amount the participant paid
for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in the
value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale of
the shares. The Company will be able to deduct, at the same time as
it is recognized by the participant, the amount of taxable
compensation to the participant for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and
162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives
designated in those Sections.
Section
162(m)
In
general, Section 162(m) of the Code denies a publicly held
corporation a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for
compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year per person paid to
its principal executive officer and the three other officers (other
than the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer) whose compensation is disclosed in its proxy
statement/prospectus as a result of their total compensation,
subject to certain exceptions. The 2017 Plan is intended to satisfy
an exception with respect to grants of options to covered
employees.
Interest
of Directors and Executive Officers.
All
members of our board of directors and all of our executive officers
are eligible for awards under the 2017 Plan and, thus, have a
personal interest in the approval of the proposal to increase the
number of shares available for issuance under the 2017
Plan.
New
Plan Benefits
With
respect to the increased number of shares reserved under the 2017
Plan, we cannot currently determine the benefits or number of
shares that will be subject to awards that may be granted in the
future to eligible participants under the 2017 Plan because the
grant of awards and terms of such awards are to be determined in
the sole discretion of the compensation committee.

The
audit committee has appointed Somekh Chaikin, independent public
accountant, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2022. The board proposes that the stockholders
ratify this appointment. We expect that representatives of Somekh
Chaikin will be either physically present or available via phone at
the Annual Meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so
desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate
questions.
The
following table sets forth the fees billed by Somekh Chaikin for
each of our last two fiscal years for the categories of services
indicated.

Fees: Audit Fees consist of fees billed for professional
services performed by Somekh Chaikin for the audit of our annual
financial statements, the review of interim consolidated financial
statements, and related services that are normally provided in
connection with registration statements, including the registration
statement for S-1 and S-3.
Tax
Fees: Tax Fees may consist of fees for professional services,
including tax and VAT consulting and compliance performed by an
independent registered public accounting provided during the
period.
Pre-Approval
Policies and Procedures
In
accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, our
audit committee charter requires the audit committee to pre-approve
all audit and permitted non-audit services provided by our
independent registered public accounting firm, including the review
and approval in advance of our independent registered public
accounting firm’s annual engagement letter and the proposed fees
contained therein. The audit committee has the ability to delegate
the authority to pre-approve non-audit services to one or more
designated members of the audit committee. If such authority is
delegated, such delegated members of the audit committee must
report to the full audit committee at the next audit committee
meeting all items pre-approved by such delegated members. In the
fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 all of
the services performed by our independent registered public
accounting firm were pre-approved by the audit
committee.
RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 4:
THE
BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF
SOMEKH CHAIKIN AS INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR
ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2022.
PROPOSAL NO. 5
ADJOURNMENT
OF THE ANNUAL MEETING, IF NECESSARY, TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES
IF THERE ARE INSUFFICIENT VOTES AT THE TIME OF THE ANNUAL MEETING
TO APPROVE THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROPOSAL
Our
board believes
that if the number of shares of our common stock outstanding and
entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is insufficient to approve
the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, it is in the best interests of
the stockholders to enable the board to continue to seek to obtain
a sufficient number of additional votes to approve the Reverse
Stock Split.
In
the Adjournment Proposal, we are asking stockholders to authorize
the holder of any proxy solicited by the board to vote in favor of
adjourning or postponing the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or
postponement thereof. If our stockholders approve this proposal, we
could adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting, and any adjourned
session of the Annual Meeting, to use the additional time to
solicit additional proxies in favor of such proposals.
In
addition, approval of the Adjournment Proposal could mean that, in
the event we receive proxies indicating that a majority of the
number of outstanding shares of our common stock will vote against
the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, we could adjourn or postpone the
Annual Meeting without a vote on such proposal and use the
additional time to solicit the holders of those shares to change
their vote in favor of such proposal.
RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 5:
THE
BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ADJOURNMENT OF THE ANNUAL MEETING,
IF NECESSARY, TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES IF THERE ARE
INSUFFICIENT VOTES AT THE TIME OF THE ANNUAL MEETING TO APPROVE THE
REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROPOSAL.
REPORT OF THE AUDIT
COMMITTEE
The
audit committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial

the independent registered public accounting firm the matters
required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, and the
SEC. The audit committee has also received the written disclosures
and the letter from the independent registered public accounting
firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the
independent accountants’ communications with the audit committee
concerning independence and has discussed with the independent
registered public accounting firm the accounting firm’s
independence. Based on these reviews and discussions, the audit

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Other
than the compensation agreements and other arrangements described
under “Executive Compensation” and the transactions described
below, since January 1, 2021, we did not participate in any
transaction, and we are not currently participating in any proposed
transaction, or series of transactions, in which the amount
involved exceeded the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the
average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed
fiscal years, and in which, to our knowledge, any of our directors,
officers, five percent beneficial security holders, or any member
of the immediate family of the foregoing persons had, or will have,
a direct or indirect material interest.
Employment Agreements
We
have entered into written employment agreements with each of our
executive officers. These agreements generally provide for notice
periods of varying duration for termination of the agreement by us
or by the relevant executive officer, during which time the
executive officer will continue to receive base salary and
benefits. We have also entered into customary non-competition,
confidentiality of information and ownership of inventions
arrangements with our executive officers. However, the
enforceability of the noncompetition provisions may be limited
under applicable law.
Options
Since
our inception we have granted options to purchase our common stock
to our officers and directors. Such option agreements may contain
acceleration provisions upon certain merger, acquisition, or change
of control transactions.
Restricted Stock Grants
On September 29, 2022, our compensation committee approved grants
of restricted share awards under our 2017 Plan to Ronen Luzon, Or
Kles, Billy Pardo, Ilia Turchinsky and Ezequiel Javier Brandwain,
pursuant to which they were issued 2,500,000 restricted shares,
600,000 restricted shares, 600,000 restricted shares, 400,000
restricted shares and 300,000 restricted shares, respectively. The
restricted shares shall vest in three equal installments on January
1, 2023, January 1, 2024 and January 1, 2025, conditioned upon
continuous employment with the Company, and subject to accelerated
vesting upon a change in control of the Company.
Indemnification
Agreements and Directors’ and Officers’ Liability
Insurance
We
have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our
directors and executive officers. These agreements, among other
things, require us to indemnify these individuals and, in certain
cases, affiliates of such individuals, to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by
reason of their service to us or at our direction, and to advance
expenses incurred as a result of any proceedings against them as to
which they could be indemnified. We also maintain an insurance
policy that insures our directors and officers against certain
liabilities, including liabilities arising under applicable
securities laws.
Director
Independence
See
“Nominees for Director” above for a discussion regarding the
independence of the members of our board of directors.
Naiz
Bespoke Technologies Acquisition
On
October 7, 2022, we entered into that certain Share Purchase
Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Borja Cembrero Saralegui (“Borja),
Aritz Torre Garcia (“Aritz”), Whitehole, S.L. (“Whitehole”),
Twinbel, S.L. (“Twinbel”) and EGI Acceleration, S.L. (“EGI) (each
of Borja, Aritz, Whitehole, Twinbel and EGI shall be referred to as
the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to sell to us
all of the issued and outstanding equity of Naiz Bespoke
Technologies, S.L., a limited liability company incorporated under
the laws of Spain (“Naiz”). The acquisition of Naiz was completed
on October 11, 2022.
In
consideration of the purchase of the shares of Naiz, the Agreement
provided that the Sellers are entitled to receive (i) an aggregate
of 6,000,000 shares (the “Equity Consideration”) of our common
stock (the “Shares”), representing in the aggregate, immediately
prior to the issuance of such shares at the closing of the
transaction, not more than 19.9% of the issued and outstanding
Shares and (ii) up to US$2,050,000 in cash (the “Cash
Consideration”).
The
Equity Consideration was issued to the Sellers at closing of the
transaction of which 2,365,800 shares of our common stock were
issued to Whitehole constituting 6.6% of our outstanding shares
following such issuance. The Agreement also provides that, in the
event that the actual value of the Equity Consideration (based on
the average closing price of the Shares on the Nasdaq Capital
Market over the 10 trading days prior to the closing of the
transaction (the “Equity Value Averaging Period”)) is less than
US$1,650,000, we shall make an additional cash payment (the
“Shortfall Value”) to the Sellers within 45 days of the Company’s
receipt of Naiz’s 2025 audited financial statements; provided that
certain revenue targets are met. Following the Equity Value
Averaging Period, it was determined that the Shortfall Value is
US$459,240.
The
Cash Consideration is payable to the Sellers in five installments,
according to the following payment schedule: (i) US$500,000 at
closing, (ii) up to US$500,000 within 45 days of the Company’s
receipt of Naiz’s 2022 audited financial statements, (iii) up to
US$350,000 within 45 days of the Company’s receipt of Naiz’s
unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30,
2023, (iv) up to US$350,000 within 45 days of the Company’s receipt
of Naiz’s unaudited financial statements for the six months ended
December 31, 2023, and (v) up to US$350,000 within 45 days of the
Company’s receipt of Naiz’s 2024 audited financial statements;
provided that in the case of the second, third, fourth and fifth
installments certain revenue targets are met.
The
payment of the second, third, fourth and fifth cash installments
are further subject to the continuing employment or involvement of
Borja and Aritz (each of Borja and Aritz shall be referred to as a
“Key Person” and collectively, as the Key Persons) by or with Naiz
at the date such payment is due (except if a Key Person is
terminated from Naiz due to a Good Reason (as defined in the
Agreement).
The
Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and
indemnification provisions. In addition, the Sellers will be
subject to non-competition and non-solicitation provisions pursuant
to which they agree not to engage in competitive activities with
respect to the Company’s business.
In
connection with the Agreement, (i) each of the Sellers entered into
six-month lock-up agreements (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) with the
Company, (ii) Whitehole, Twinbel and EGI entered into a voting
agreement (the “Voting Agreement) with the Company and (iii) each
of the Key Persons entered into employment agreements and services
agreements with Naiz.
The
Lock-Up Agreement provides that each Seller will not, for the
six-month period following the closing of the transaction, (i)
offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option, warrant or
contract to purchase, purchase any option, warrant or contract to
sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise
transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares or any
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Shares in each case, that are currently or hereafter owned of
record or beneficially (including holding as a custodian) by such
Seller, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer,
sale, pledge, grant, transfer or disposition; or (ii) enter into
any swap, short sale, hedge or other agreement that transfers, in
whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of
such Seller’s Shares regardless of whether any such transaction
described in clause (i) or this clause (ii) is to be settled by
delivery of Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.
The Lock-Up Agreement also contains an additional three-month
“dribble-out” provision that provides following the expiration of
the initial six-month lock-up period, without the Company’s prior
written consent (which the Company shall be permitted to withhold
at its sole discretion), each Seller shall not sell, dispose of or
otherwise transfer on any given day a number of Shares representing
more than the average daily trading volume of the Shares for the
rolling 30 day trading period prior to the date on which such
Seller executes a trade of the Shares.
The
Voting Agreement provides that the voting of any Shares held by
each of Whitehole, Twinbel and EGI (each a “Stockholder”) will be
exercised exclusively by a proxy designated by the Company’s board
of directors from time to time (the “Proxy”) and that each
Stockholder will irrevocably designate and appoint the then-current
Proxy as its sole and exclusive attorney-in-fact and proxy to vote
and exercise all voting right with respect to the Shares held by
each Stockholder. The Voting Agreement also provides that, if the
voting power held by the Proxy, taking into account the proxies
granted by the Stockholders and the Shares owned by the Proxy,
represents 20% or more of the voting power of the Company’s
stockholders that will vote on an item (the “Voting Power”), then
the Proxy shall vote such number of Shares in excess of 19.9% of
the Voting Power in the same proportion as the Shares that are
voted by the Company’s other stockholders. The Voting Agreement
will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) such time that such
Stockholder no longer owns the Shares, (ii) the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or the consolidation
or merger of the Company with or into any other business entity
pursuant to which stockholders of the Company prior to such
consolidation or merger hold less than 50% of the voting equity of
the surviving or resulting entity, (iii) the liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the business operations of the
Company, and (iv) the filing or consent to filing of any
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceeding
involving the Company or otherwise seeking any relief under any
laws relating to relief from debts or protection of
debtors.

follows:
FIRST:
The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the
Corporation is hereby amended by replacing FIFTH in its entirety
with the following:
FIFTH:
The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall
have authority to issue is one hundred million 250,000,000 shares
of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share (the “Common
Stock”). The Common Stock may be issued from time to time without
action by the stockholders. The Common Stock may be issued for
consideration as may be fixed by the Corporation’s Board of
Directors (the “Board of Directors”).
The
foregoing amendment shall be effective as of _____ a.m., New York
City time on _____, 202__ (the “Effective Time”), every _____
(_____) shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (the “Old Common
Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one
(1) share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the
Corporation (the “New Common Stock”) (such formula herein, the
“Determined Ratio”). Further, every right, option and warrant to
acquire shares of Old Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time and without any
further action, automatically be reclassified into the right to
acquire one (1) share of New Common Stock based on the Determined
Ratio of shares of Old Common Stock to shares of New Common Stock,
but otherwise upon the terms of such right, option or warrant
(except that the exercise or purchase price of such right, option
or warrant shall be proportionately adjusted).
Notwithstanding
the immediately preceding paragraph, the Corporation shall not be
required to issue or deliver any fractional shares of New Common
Stock. At the Effective Time any such fractional interest in such
shares of New Common Stock shall be [converted into the right to
receive, an amount in cash, without interest, determined by
multiplying (i) the closing sale price of the Common Stock (on a
post-reverse-split basis as adjusted for the amendment effected
hereby) on the trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time
as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market by (ii) such fractional
share interest to which the holder would otherwise be
entitled]/[rounded up to the next whole share]. Shares of Common
Stock that were outstanding prior to the Effective Time and that
are not outstanding after the Effective Time shall resume the
status of authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock.
Each
stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time,
represented shares of Old Common Stock shall, from and after the
Effective Time, represent that number of whole shares of New Common
Stock into which the shares of Old Common Stock represented by such
certificate shall have been reclassified (as well as the right to
receive [cash]/[whole shares] in lieu of any fractional shares of
New Common Stock as set forth above); provided, however, that each
holder of record of a certificate that represented shares of Old
Common Stock shall receive, upon surrender of such certificate, a
new certificate representing the number of whole shares of New
Common Stock into which the shares of Old Common Stock represented
by such certificate shall have been reclassified, as well as any
[cash]/[whole share] in lieu of fractional shares of New Common
Stock to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to the
immediately preceding paragraph.
SECOND:
The foregoing amendment has been duly adopted in accordance with
the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation law of the
State of Delaware by the vote of a majority of each class of
outstanding stock of the Corporation entitled to vote
thereon.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, I have signed this Certificate this __ day of
