The proxy materials will be mailed to stockholders on or about November 25, 2023.

 

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY AND SOLICITATION

 

Any stockholder executing a proxy that is solicited hereby has the power to revoke it prior to the voting of the proxy. Revocation may be made by attending the Annual Meeting and voting the shares of stock in person, or by delivering to the Secretary of the Company at the principal office of the Company prior to the Annual Meeting a written notice of revocation or a later-dated, properly executed proxy. Solicitation of proxies may be made by directors, officers and other employees of the Company by personal interview, telephone, facsimile transmittal or electronic communications. No additional compensation will be paid for any such services. This solicitation of proxies is being made by the Company which will bear all costs associated with the mailing of this proxy statement and the solicitation of proxies.

 

RECORD DATE

 

Stockholders of record at the close of business on November 7, 2023, 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.

 

1
 

 

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 2 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 Oron Branitzky and Guy Zimmerman are the nominees (the “Director Election Proposal”); (ii) the approval, on an advisory basis, of the company’s executive compensation (the “Say on Pay Proposal”); (iii) the approval, on an advisory basis, of the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation (the “Frequency on Say on Pay Proposal”); (iv) the 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 1,040,000 shares from 289,000 shares (the “Plan Amendment Proposal”); (v) the approval of the delisting of our shares of common stock from the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “Delisting Proposal”); (vi) the authorization, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), of the issuance of shares of our common stock, underlying certain warrants issued by us pursuant to that certain Inducement Letter, dated as of August 24, 2023, by and between us and the investor named on the signatory page thereto, and the Engagement Agreement between us and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, dated as of August 24, 2023, in an amount equal to or in excess of 20% of our common stock outstanding immediately prior the issuance of such warrants (the “Issuance Proposal”); and (vii) the ratification of the appointment of Somekh Chaikin as our independent public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 (the “Auditor Reappointment 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 2,981,792 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 993,931 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 November 7, 2023, 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, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are considered “non-routine” matters. Proposal 7 is considered “routine” matters.

 

3
 

 

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 the votes cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 2. 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. The vote on executive compensation is advisory, and therefore not binding; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

 

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. The vote on frequency on say on pay is advisory, and therefore not binding; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering future frequency on say on pay.

 

Proposal 4: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 4. 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 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.

 

Proposal 6: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 6. 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.

 

4
 

 

Proposal 7: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the matter is required for the approval of Proposal 7. Stockholder ratification of the selection of Somekh Chaikin as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 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.

 

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 Say on Pay Proposal;
     
   “FOR” the approval of the Frequency on Say on Pay Proposal;
     
  “FOR” the approval of the Plan Amendment Proposal;
     
  “FOR” the approval of the Delisting Proposal;
     
  “FOR” the approval of the Issuance Proposal;
     
  “FOR” approval of the Auditor Reappointment 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.

 

5
 

 

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 2024 Annual Meeting?

 

Stockholders who wish to present proposals for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 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 28, 2024. 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 2024 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 August 29, 2024, and no later than September 28, 2024. However, if the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting is convened more than 30 days before, or delayed by more than 60 days after, December 27, 2024, to be considered at our 2024 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 2024 annual meeting must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a19 under the Exchange Act no later than October 28, 2024. If the date of the 2024 annual meeting is changed by more than 30 calendar days from the anniversary date of the 2023 annual meeting, however, then the stockholder must provide notice by the later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the 2024 annual meeting or the 10th calendar day following the date on which public announcement of the date of the 2024 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.

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.

Pay Versus Performance

 

We are required by SEC rules to disclose the following information regarding compensation paid to our Principal Executive Officer (the “PEO”) and our other named executive officers (collectively, the “Non-PEO NEOs”). The amounts set forth below under the headings “Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” have been calculated in a manner prescribed by the SEC rules and do not necessarily align with how we or the compensation committee views the link between our performance and pay of our named executive officers. The footnotes below set forth the adjustments from the total compensation for each of our NEOs reported in the Summary Compensation Table above. As permitted under the rules applicable to smaller reporting companies, we are including two years of data and are not including a peer group total shareholder return or company-selected measure, as contemplated under Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The following table sets forth additional compensation information of our PEO and Non-PEO NEOs, along with total shareholder return, and net loss results for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

(1) Mr. Ronen Luzon served as our Chief Executive Officer for the entirety of 2022 and 2021. The Non-PEO NEOs for 2022 and 2021 were Mr. Or Kles and Ms. Billy Pardo.

 

(2) The dollar amounts reported herein represent the amount of total compensation reported for each covered fiscal year in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table for each applicable year.

 

(3) The dollar amounts reported below represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” to our PEO and Non-PEO NEOs (as an average) as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, for each covered fiscal year. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned or received by or paid to the PEOs and Non-PEO NEOs during the applicable fiscal year. For purposes of the equity award adjustments shown below, no equity awards were cancelled due to a failure to meet vesting conditions and no dividends or other earnings paid on stock or option awards in the covered fiscal year prior to the vesting date were not otherwise included in the total compensation for the covered fiscal year. In calculating the “compensation actually paid” amounts reflected in these columns, the fair value or change in fair value, as applicable, of the equity award adjustments included in such calculations was computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The valuation assumptions used to calculate such fair values did not materially differ from those disclosed at the time of grant. The following table details the applicable adjustments that were made to the determine “compensation actually paid” (all amounts are averages for Non-PEO NEOs).

(5) Cumulative total stockholder return (“TSR”) assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2020 and is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between our stock price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period (December 31, 2020) by our stock price at the beginning of the measurement period. At December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the per share closing prices for our common stock were $2.72, $13.025 and $35.25, respectively. No dividends were paid on stock or option awards for all periods presented.

 

(6) Net loss is reflected as reported in our audited consolidated financial statements for the applicable fiscal year.

 

Pay Versus Performance Comparative Disclosure

 

The Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. While the Company utilizes several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance, all of those Company measures are not presented in the PVP table. Moreover, the Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with CAP (as computed in accordance with SEC rules) for a particular year. In accordance with SEC rules, the Company is providing the following narrative disclosure regarding the relationships between information presented in the PVP table.

 

Compensation Actually Paid and Company TSR

 

During fiscal 2021 and 2022, compensation actually paid to our PEO increased from $144,707 in fiscal 2021 to $245,017 in fiscal 2022. Average compensation actually paid to our Non-PEO NEOs decreased from $111,419 in fiscal 2021 to $73,495 in fiscal 2022. Over the same period, the value of an investment of $100 in our common stock on the last trading day of 2020 decreased by $63 to $37 during fiscal 2021, and further decreased by $29 to $8 during fiscal 2022, for a total decrease over fiscal 2021 and 2022 of $92.

 

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Loss

 

During fiscal 2021 and 2022, compensation actually paid to our PEO increased from $144,707 in fiscal 2021 to $245,017 in fiscal 2022. Average compensation actually paid to our Non-PEO NEOs decreased from $111,419 in fiscal 2021 to $73,195 in fiscal 2022. Over the same period, our net loss increased by $4,363,000 during fiscal 2021 (from a net loss in fiscal 2020 of $6,157,000 to a net loss in fiscal 2021 of $10,520,000), and decreased by $2,210,000 during fiscal 2022 (from a net loss in fiscal 2021 of $10,520,000 to a net loss in fiscal 2022 of $8,310,000).

 

PROPOSAL NO. 2

 

APPROVAL OF COMPENSATION AWARDED TO NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

 

As required by the SEC’s proxy rules, we are seeking an advisory, non-binding stockholder vote with respect to compensation awarded to our named executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Company holds an advisory vote on executive compensation once every three years at the annual meeting of stockholders.

 

Our executive compensation program and compensation paid to our named executive officers are described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation and Other Information.” Our compensation programs are overseen by the compensation committee and reflect our philosophy to pay all of our employees, including our named executive officers, in ways that support our primary business objectives.

 

17
 

 

The Company is asking its stockholders to indicate their support for the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers. This proposal is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of the company’s named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, the Company is asking its stockholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

 

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC.”

 

The vote on executive compensation is advisory, and therefore not binding; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

 

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 2:

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION PAID TO THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO THE SEC’S COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES.

 

PROPOSAL NO. 3

 

DETERMINE FREQUENCY OF STOCKHOLDER ADVISORY VOTE REGARDING COMPENSATION AWARDED TO NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

 

As required by the SEC’s proxy rules, we are seeking an advisory, non-binding stockholder vote about how often we should present stockholders with the opportunity to vote on compensation awarded to our named executive officers. You may elect to have the vote held every year, every two years, or every three years, or you may abstain. We recommend that this advisory vote be held once every three years, but stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove of that recommendation. We believe that a triennial voting frequency will provide our stockholders with sufficient time to evaluate the effectiveness of our overall compensation philosophy, policies, and practices in the context of our long-term business results for the corresponding period, while avoiding over-emphasis on short-term variations in compensation and business results. We also believe that a three-year timeframe provides a better opportunity to observe and evaluate the impact of any changes to our executive compensation policies and practices that have occurred since the last advisory vote.

 

The Company is asking its stockholders to indicate their support for the holding a stockholder advisory vote regarding the compensation awarded to named executive officers every third year. Accordingly, the Company is asking its stockholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

 

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, a vote for a frequency of once every three years for the stockholder advisory vote on compensation to the Company’s named executive officers.”

 

The vote on frequency of a stockholder advisory vote regarding the compensation awarded to named executive officers is advisory, and therefore not binding; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering the frequency of a stockholder advisory vote regarding the compensation awarded to named executive officers.

 

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 3:

 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR A FREQUENCY OF ONCE EVERY “THREE YEARS” FOR THE STOCKHOLDER ADVISORY VOTE ON COMPENSATION TO OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL NO. 4

 

APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE MY SIZE, INC. 2017 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN TO

INCREASE THE RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER TO

1,040,000 SHARES FROM 289,000 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; 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; and on December 7, 2022, our stockholders voted to increase the reservation of common stock for issuance under the 2017 Plan to 7,225,000 shares from 5,770,000 shares (in each case, the share numbers do not give effect to the 1-for-25 reverse stock split effected by us on December 8, 2022). Following the most recent shareholder approval December 7, 2022, the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan is 289,000.

 

On November 6, 2023, our compensation committee recommended to the board of directors to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2017 Plan by 751,000 shares to 1,040,000 shares from 289,000 shares (after giving effect to the reverse split that we effected on December 7, 2022), 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 751,000 shares to 1,040,000 shares from 289,000 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 A.

 

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 289,000 (after giving effect to the reverse split that we effected on December 7, 2022) shares of common stock. As of the Record Date, an aggregate of 285,456 shares have been granted under the 2017 Plan and 3,544 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.

 

19
 

 

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.

 

20
 

 

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.

 

21
 

 

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.

PROPOSAL NO. 5

 

aPPROVAL TO DELIST our common stock from the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange

 

Background

 

Our primary listing for our shares of common stock is the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”). We have also maintained a secondary listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (“TASE”) since September 2005. We originally pursued this course in order to improve the overall liquidity of our shares and to give us access to an additional capital market. Between 2007 and 2012 we reported as a public company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In August 2012, we suspended our reporting obligations with the SEC, and in mid-2015, we resumed reporting as a public company with the SEC. On July 25, 2016, our common stock began publicly trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “MYSZ”.

 

We have determined that, in order to provide increased flexibility for our company, it may be desirable to delist our common stock from the TASE. At this time, we have not determined that we will proceed to delist our common stock from the TASE if this proposal is approved by our stockholders, however our Board has determined that having the option available is desirable to provide flexibility in allowing us to pursue strategic objectives. If the proposal to delist our common stock from the TASE is approved, the decision to proceed with the delisting of our common stock from the TASE will be at the sole discretion of our Board.

 

We are asking shareholders to approve the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the TASE due to:

 

  the complexity of complying with two regulatory regimes (the Nasdaq and the TASE with conflicting and often inconsistent requirements;

 

23
 

 

  our very low trading volume on the TASE relative to the Nasdaq and lack of need to access the capital markets through the TASE; and
     
  the costs and administrative burden associated with maintaining and complying with the secondary listing venue.

 

Rationale for the Delisting

 

While we feel that, over the years, we have achieved a number of benefits from our secondary listing on the TASE, there are a number of significant drawbacks associated with the secondary listing. By virtue of being listed on the TASE, we are required to comply with additional and sometimes conflicting regulatory requirements from those of the Nasdaq. These regulatory requirements have become more arduous over the past few years, and we believe that we are at greater risk of inadvertently being in violation of the TASE’s rules, which could result in sanctions against the Company and our directors and officers. A delisting from the TASE would provide a single securities regulatory regime for the Company under U.S. law.

 

In addition, despite having been listed on the TASE for over 15 years, our trading volume on the TASE has remained considerably lower than our trading volume on the Nasdaq. For example, our 12 month average daily trading volume as of December 31, 2022 on the Nasdaq was approximately 34,964 shares as compared to approximately 3,359 shares on the TASE for the same period. In addition, we have generally not found it comparatively advantageous to access capital in the Israeli market, obviating one of our key original objectives for pursuing the secondary listing.

 

Lastly, we pay approximately $25,000 in costs annually associated with the secondary listing. This includes the cost of employee time, travel and other resources related to the listing. The delisting of the Company’s common stock from the TASE will reduce the Company’s administrative burden related to compliance with dual securities and reporting obligations and related corporate overhead and costs of compliance.

 

For the reasons stated above, we believe it is in the best interest of the Company to delist from the TASE.

 

The approval to delist from the TASE requires the affirmative vote of at least 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote. Assuming an affirmative vote, we would then have to submit a delisting application with the TASE to seek the approval of the TASE. We have no assurance that the TASE will approve our delisting, although we intend to work with the TASE to obtain their approval on acceptable terms.

 

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 5:

 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR the delisting of our common stock from the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

 

PROPOSAL NO. 6

 

A proposal to authorize, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of shares of our common stock underlying certain warrants issued by us pursuant to that certain Inducement Letter, dated as of August 24, 2023, by and between us and the investor named on the signatory page thereto, and the Engagement Agreement between us and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, dated as of august 24, 2023 in an amount equal to or in excess of 20% of our Common Stock outstanding immediately prior the issuance of such warrants

 

Background

 

The Private Placement

 

On August 24, 2023, entered into an inducement offer letter agreement (the “Inducement Letter”) with a certain holder (the “Holder”) of certain of the our existing warrants to purchase up to (i) 1,963,994 shares of our common stock issued on January 12, 2023 at an exercise price of $2.805 per share (the “January 2023 Warrants”), (ii) 6,864 shares of our common stock issued on January 17, 2020 at an exercise price of $94.00 per share (the “January 2020 Warrants”), and (ii) 47,153 shares of our common stock issued on October 28, 2021 at an exercise price of $31.50 per share, having terms ranging from 28 months to five and one-half years (the “October 2021 Warrants” and together with the January 2023 Warrants and the January 2020 Warrants, the “Existing Warrants). in a private placement (the “Private Placement”).

 

24
 

 

Pursuant to the Inducement Letter, the Holder agreed to exercise for cash its Existing Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,018,012 shares of the Company’s common stock at a reduced exercise price of $2.09 per share in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue new common stock purchase warrants (the “Investor Warrants”), as described below, to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,367,912 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Investor Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price of $2.09 per share. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4.2 million from the exercise of the Existing Warrants by the Holder, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

 

We also previously entered into an Engagement Letter (as amended, the “Engagement Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”), dated as of August 24, 2023, pursuant to which we agreed to issue to the Placement Agent or its designees in connection with the exercise of the Existing Warrants, placement agent warrants with substantially the same terms as the Investor Warrant (the “Placement Agent Warrants,” and together with the Investor Warrant, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 141,261 shares of our (the “Placement Agent Warrant Shares” and together with the Investor Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price of $1.0375 per share, as adjusted from time to time.

 

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 of the Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market requires that a listed company seek stockholder approval in certain circumstances, including prior to the issuance, in a transaction other than a public offering, of 20% or more of the company’s outstanding common stock or voting power outstanding before the issuance at a price that is less than the lower of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement in connection with such transaction, or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of such binding agreement (the “Minimum Price”).

 

Pursuant to the Inducement Letter, we agreed to seek approval by our stockholders for the issuance of the Warrant Shares. See “– The Inducement Letter” below.

 

Reasons for the Private Placement

 

Prior to entering into the Inducement Letter, the exercise prices of the January 2023 Warrants, January 2020 Warrants and October 2021 Warrants was $2.805 per share, $94.00 per share and $31.50 per share, respectively. As of August 24, 2023, the average closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq over the prior 12 months was $2.61. We believe that the Private Placement, which yielded aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4.2 million, before deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and which was used for general corporate purposes, was necessary in light of the then-current price of our common stock.

 

The Inducement Letter

 

The Inducement Letter contains representations and warranties of us and the Investor, which are typical for transactions of this type. In addition, the Inducement Letter contains customary covenants on our part that are typical for transactions of this type, as well as the following additional covenants: (i) we agreed not to issue any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents or to file any other registration statement with the SEC (in each case, subject to certain exceptions) until 45 days after the Closing Date, (ii) we agreed not to effect or agree to effect any Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Inducement Letter) until one (1) year after the Closing Date (subject to certain exceptions), (iii) we agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form, including on Form S-1, if we are not eligible to utilize Form S-3) providing for the resale of the Investor Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Investor Warrant (the “Resale Registration Statement”), as soon as practicable after the closing date of the Private Placement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days following the date of the Inducement Letter and to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective at all times until no holder of the Investor Warrant owns any Investor Warrant or Investor Warrant Shares, and (iv) we agreed to hold a meeting of our stockholders no later than 90 days following the date of the Inducement Letter to solicit our stockholders’ affirmative vote for approval of the issuance of the maximum Investor Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Investor Warrant in accordance with the applicable law and rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market, and to call a meeting every 90 days thereafter if stockholder approval is not obtained at the initial meeting, to seek such stockholder approval until the earlier of the date on which stockholder approval is obtained or the Investor Warrant is no longer outstanding. This Issuance Proposal is intended to fulfill this final covenant.

 

25
 

 

The Engagement Agreement

 

The Placement Agent Warrants were issued on the date of the closing of the Private Placement pursuant to the terms of the Engagement Agreement. The Engagement Agreement provided for the issuance of the Placement Agent Warrants to the Placement Agent or its designees as partial compensation for the Placement Agent’s services in connection with the exercise of the Existing Warrants.

 

The Warrants

 

The Warrants are exercisable for Warrant Shares upon the date of stockholder approval and expire five years from the date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the Warrant Shares, pursuant to the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The exercise price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like. Upon any such price-based adjustment to the exercise price, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be increased proportionately. The Warrants may be exercised for cash, provided that, if there is no effective registration statement available registering resale of the Warrant Shares, the Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis.

 

Effect of the Issuance of the Warrant Shares

 

The potential issuance of the Warrant Shares would result in an increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding, and our stockholders would incur dilution of their percentage ownership to the extent that the holders thereof exercise their Warrants.

 

Reasons for Nasdaq Stockholder Approval

 

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of our common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for our common stock) at a price less than the Minimum Price. In the case of the Private Placement, the 20% threshold is determined based on the shares of our common stock outstanding immediately preceding the signing of the Inducement Letter, which we signed on August 24, 2023.

 

Immediately prior to the execution of the Inducement Letter, we had 2,438,780 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and after issuance of 270,000 Existing Warrant Shares to the Investor (which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not include 1,748,012 Existing Warrant Shares held in abeyance for the Investor pursuant to the Inducement Letter), we had 2,708,780 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Therefore, the potential issuance of 5,509,173 shares of our common stock (consisting of 5,367,912 Investor Warrant Shares and 141,261 Placement Agent Warrant Shares) would have constituted greater than 20% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Inducement Letter. We are seeking stockholder approval under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) for the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of our common stock (or securities exercisable for our common stock) in excess of 487,756 shares, which is 20% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Inducement Letter.

 

We cannot predict whether the Warrant holders exercise their Warrants. For these reasons, we are unable to accurately forecast or predict with any certainty the total amount of Warrant Shares that may ultimately be issued. Under certain circumstances, however, it is possible, that we will issue more than 20% of our outstanding shares of common stock to the Warrant holders. Therefore, we are seeking stockholder approval under this proposal to issue more than 20% of our outstanding shares of common stock, if necessary, to the Warrant holders.

 

26
 

 

Approval by our stockholders of this Issuance Proposal is also one of the conditions for us to receive up to an additional approximately $11.59 million upon the exercise of the Warrants, if exercised for cash. Loss of these potential funds could jeopardize our ability to execute our business plan.

 

Any transaction requiring approval by our stockholders under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) would likely result in a significant increase in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, and, as a result, our current stockholders will own a smaller percentage of our outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we are not permitted (without risk of delisting) to undertake a transaction that could result in a change in control of us without seeking and obtaining separate stockholder approval. We are not required to obtain stockholder approval for the Private Placement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) because the terms of the Warrants include beneficial ownership limitations that prohibit the exercise of the Warrants to the extent that such exercise would result in the holder and its affiliates, collectively, beneficially owning or controlling more than 4.99% (which percentage can be increased to 9.99%) of the total outstanding shares of our common stock.

 

Consequences of Not Approving the Issuance Proposal

 

After extensive efforts to raise capital on more favorable terms, we believed that the Private Placement was the only viable financing alternative available to us at the time. In addition, unless we obtain stockholder approval for the Issuance Proposal at the initial meeting, we will be required to incur additional costs in order to hold additional stockholder meetings every 90 days following the initial meeting to seek such approval, pursuant to the Inducement Letter. Further, until such time as we receive stockholder approval, we will not be able to issue 20% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock to the Warrant holders in connection with the Private Placement.

 

Further Information

 

The terms of the Inducement Letter and the Warrants are only briefly summarized above. For further information, please refer to the forms of the Inducement Letter and the Investor Warrant, which were filed with the SEC as exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on August 25, 2023 and are incorporated herein by reference. The discussion herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the filed documents.

 

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD FOR PROPOSAL NO. 6:

 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR A PROPOSAL TO AUTHORIZE, FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLYING WITH NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(D), THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK UNDERLYING CERTAIN WARRANTS ISSUED BY US PURSUANT TO THAT CERTAIN INDUCEMENT LETTER, DATED AS OF AUGUST 24, 2023, BY AND BETWEEN US AND THE INVESTOR NAMED ON THE SIGNATORY PAGE THERETO, AND THE ENGAGEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN US AND H.C. WAINWRIGHT & CO., LLC, DATED AS OF AUGUST 24, 2023 IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO OR IN EXCESS OF 20% OF OUR COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING IMMEDIATELY PRIOR THE ISSUANCE OF SUCH WARRANTS.

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”).

 

30
 

 

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.

 

31
 

 

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.
