Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation
under the supervision of our CEO and CFO (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), regarding the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June
30, 2022. Based on the aforementioned evaluation, management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective
as of June 30, 2022.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
Our management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting has
been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Our internal control over
financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately
and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in
accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective
can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting on June 30, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 2013 framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework .
Based on that assessment under those criteria, management has determined that, as of June 30, 2022, our internal control over financial
reporting was effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes
in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act)
during the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.

considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow the Board to fulfill its

Section 16(a) of the Exchange
Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common shares, to file reports regarding ownership
of, and transactions in, our securities with the SEC and to provide us with copies of those filings.
We have reviewed all forms
provided to us or filed with the SEC. Based on that review and on written information given to us by our executive officers and directors,
we believe that all Section 16(a) filings during the past fiscal year were filed on a timely basis and that all directors, executive officers
and 10% beneficial owners have fully complied with such requirements during the past fiscal year, other than the Form 4s filed on July
26, 2021 by Doron Birger and Varda Shalev, which were each filed one week late.

in force from June 30, 2020, but in any event no more than six years in the aggregate.
In addition, Mr. Aberman,
Mr. Yanay and Ms. Franco-Yehuda are entitled to acceleration of the vesting of their share options and RSUs in the following circumstances:
(1) if we terminate their employment for a reason other than cause (as may be defined in each respective agreement), they will be entitled
to acceleration of 100% of any unvested awards and (2) if they resign, they will be entitled to acceleration of 50% of any unvested award,
subject to the approval of the Board. In addition, Mr. Aberman, Mr. Yanay, and Ms. Franco-Yehuda are also entitled to acceleration of
100% of any unvested award in case of our change in control as defined in their respective consulting and employment agreements.
For clarification purposes,
the acceleration mechanism detailed above does not apply to the 500,000 RSUs granted to each of our CEO and Chairman in September 2020,
that were linked to the achievement of our market capitalization reaching of $550 million during the three-year period from the date of
the grant.
The following table displays
