1A. Risk Factors.
We
are substantially dependent on assets we purchased from a former related party, and if we lose the rights to such assets or the
assets are repurchased for any reason, our ability to develop existing and new applications based upon these assets would be significantly
harmed, and our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
In
February 2014, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with a former related party, Shoshana Zigdon, or the Seller, pursuant to which
we acquired certain rights related to the collection of data for measurement purposes including rights in the venture, the method
and a patent application that had been filed by the Seller (PCT/IL2013/050056), or the Assets. Our business is substantially dependent
upon the Assets we acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Therefore, our ability to develop and commercialize our applications
depends upon the effectiveness and continuation of the Purchase Agreement. If we lose the rights, including the rights to the
patent that comprise the Assets, our ability to develop existing and new applications would be harmed. In consideration for the
sale of the Assets, we agreed to pay to Ms. Zigdon, 18% of our operating profit, directly or indirectly connected with the Assets
together with value-added tax in accordance with the Israeli tax law for a period of seven years from the end of the development
period of the aforementioned venture.
The
Purchase Agreement may be terminated by either party in the event of an uncured material breach. The Purchase Agreement further
provides that the Seller is entitled to repurchase the Assets from us upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events:
(a) in the case of liquidation or bankruptcy of the Company; or (b) if on the seventh anniversary of the execution of the Purchase
Agreement, the amount of our income, directly and/or indirectly derived from the Assets is less than NIS 3.6 million (approximately
$1 million). As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have only generated limited revenue and as a consequence
of the passage of seven years since execution of the Purchase Agreement, Ms. Zigdon, has a right to repurchase the Assets until
June 16, 2021 at the market price of the Assets as determined by a third party independent valuation. In accordance with the Purchase
Agreement, on March 7, 2021, we notified Ms. Zigdon that the amount of our income, directly and/or indirectly derived from the
Assets is less than NIS 3.6 million. We are currently negotiating the waiver of Ms. Zigdon’s right to repurchase of the
Assets and in consideration of such waiver expect to pay cash or issue shares of common stock and/or common stock equivalents,
or a combination of both. At this stage, we are unable to estimate the amount or form of consideration that we will expect to
pay or other terms to which we would agree in consideration of the waiver. To the extent that we pay cash, this could materially
reduce the amount of cash available for working capital and other purposes and to the extent we issue any equity this could result
in substantial dilution to you and our then current stockholders. There is no assurance that we will reach agreement with Ms.
Zigdon regarding the waiver. If Ms. Zigdon exercises her right to repurchase the Assets, our ability to develop and commercialize
our products would be significantly harmed and we may cease operations.
Our
business could be negatively affected as a result of a potential proxy contest for the election of directors at our annual meeting or
other stockholder activism.
In
May 2021, we received notice from a purported stockholder of its intention to nominate four candidates to stand for election to our Board
of Directors at our 2021 annual meeting of stockholders. If this purported stockholder or any other stockholder engages in a proxy contest
or other stockholder activism, we could incur significant legal fees and proxy solicitation expenses, and such actions would require
significant time and attention by management and our Board of Directors. The potential of a proxy contest or other stockholder activism
could interfere with our ability to execute our strategic plan, give rise to perceived uncertainties as to our future direction, adversely
affect our relationships with key business partners, result in the loss of potential business opportunities or make it more difficult
to attract and retain qualified personnel, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and operating results. The
market price of our common stock could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by the events, risks
and uncertainties related to any such stockholder activism.
