We are currently unaware of
any other matters that may be raised at the Meeting. Should any other matters be properly raised at the Meeting, the persons designated
as proxies shall vote according to their own judgment on those matters.
Board Recommendation
Our Board unanimously recommends
that you vote “FOR” all items.
Record Date, Share
Ownership and Quorum
Only
the holders of record of ordinary shares of the Company as at the close of business on August 16, 2024, (the “Record Date”)
are entitled to receive notice of and attend the Meeting and any adjournment thereof. No person shall be entitled to vote at the Meeting
unless such person is registered as a shareholder of the Company on the Record Date for the Meeting.
As
of the close of business on the Record Date, 20,110,965 ordinary shares were issued and outstanding. A quorum shall be the presence of
at least two (2) shareholders who hold at least twenty five percent (25%) of the voting rights (including through a proxy or voting instrument)
within one half hour from the time the meeting was designated to start.
If
within half an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting a quorum is not present, then without any further notice the Meeting shall
be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place. No business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting except
business which might lawfully have been transacted at the Meeting as originally called. At such adjourned meeting any shareholder (not
in default as aforesaid) present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum.
Abstentions
and “broker non-votes” are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A “broker non-vote”
occurs when a bank, broker or other holder of record holding ordinary shares for a beneficial owner attends the Meeting but does not vote
on a particular proposal because that holder does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions
from the beneficial owner. Brokers that hold ordinary shares in “street name” for clients (as described below) typically have
authority to vote on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. The only item
on the Meeting agenda that may be considered routine is Proposal 1 relating to the reappointment of the Company’s independent registered
public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; however, we cannot be certain whether this will be treated as a routine
matter since our proxy statement is prepared in compliance with the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”),
rather than the rules applicable to domestic U.S. reporting companies. Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds ordinary
shares through a bank or broker to instruct its bank or broker how to vote its ordinary shares if the shareholder wants its ordinary shares
to count for the Proposals.
Position Statement
To
the extent you would like to submit a position statement with respect to any of proposals described in this proxy statement pursuant to
the Companies Law you may do so by delivery of appropriate notice to the offices of our attorneys, Shibolet & Co. (Attention: Ron
Soulema, Adv) located at 4 Its’hak Sadeh St., Tel-Aviv, Israel, not later than ten days before the convening of the Meeting (i.e. September
13, 2024). The response of the Board to the position statement may be submitted not later than five days after the deadline for sending
the position statement (i.e. September 18, 2024).
Cost of Soliciting Votes for the Meeting
We
will bear the cost of soliciting proxies from our shareholders. Proxies will be solicited by mail and may also be solicited in person,
by telephone or electronic communication, by our directors, officers and employees. We will reimburse brokerage houses and
other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their expenses in accordance with the regulations of the SEC concerning the sending of
proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of our shares.
Voting
Each
ordinary share issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date is entitled to one vote at the Meeting.
Ordinary
shares that are properly voted, for which proxy cards are properly executed and returned within the deadline set forth below, will be
voted at the Meeting in accordance with the directions given. If no specific instructions are given in such proxy cards, the proxy holder
will vote in favor of the item(s) set forth in the proxy card. The proxy holder will also vote in the discretion of such proxy holder
on any other matters that may properly come before the Meeting, or at any adjournment thereof. Where any holder of ordinary shares affirmatively
abstains from voting on any particular resolution, the votes attaching to such ordinary shares will not be included or counted in the
determination of the number of ordinary shares present and voting for the purposes of determining whether such resolution has been passed
(but they will be counted for the purposes of determining the quorum, as described above).
Proxies
submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (by returning the proxy card) must be received by us no later than 8:00 a.m.,
Eastern Time, on September 19, 2024, to ensure your representation at our Meeting.
The
manner in which your shares may be voted depends on how your shares are held. If you own shares of record, meaning that your shares are
represented by book entry in your name so that you appear as a shareholder on the records of VStock Transfer, LLC (“VStock”)
(i.e., you are a registered shareholder), our stock transfer agent, this Proxy Statement, the notice of Meeting and the proxy card will
be mailed to you by VStock. You may provide voting instructions by returning a proxy card. You also may attend the Meeting and vote in
person. If you own ordinary shares of record and you do not vote by proxy or in person at the Meeting, your shares will not be voted.
If
you own shares in street name (i.e., you are a street shareholder), meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other
nominee, you are then considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name,” and as a result, this
Proxy Statement, the notice of Meeting and the proxy card will be provided to you by your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding
the shares. You may provide voting instructions to them directly by returning a voting instruction form received from that institution.
If you own ordinary shares in street name and attend the Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, brokerage
firm, or other nominee that holds your shares in order to vote your shares at the Meeting and present your voting information card.
Revocability of Proxies
Registered
shareholders may revoke their proxy or change voting instructions before shares are voted at the Meeting by submitting a written notice
of revocation to our Chief Financial Officer at ofer@railvision.io or Rail Vision Ltd., 15 Ha’Tidhar St. Ra’anana, Israel,
or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date (which must be received by us no later than the date set forth below) or by attending the
Meeting and voting in person. A beneficial owner owning ordinary shares in street name may revoke or change voting instructions by contacting
the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from such institution and voting in person
at the Meeting.
If you are not planning
to attend in person, to ensure your representation at our Meeting, revocation of proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street
shareholders (by returning a proxy card) must be received by us no later than 8:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on September 19, 2024.
Availability of Proxy Materials
Copies of the proxy card and
voting instruction card, the notice of Meeting and this Proxy Statement are available at the “Investor Relations” portion
of our website, http://www.railvision.io. The contents of that website are not a part of this Proxy Statement.
Reporting Requirements
We are subject to the information
reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), applicable to foreign private
issuers. We fulfill these requirements by filing reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the Commission. Our filings are
available to the public on the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
As a foreign private issuer,
we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements. The circulation of this
notice and Proxy Statement should not be taken as an admission that we are subject to the proxy rules under the Exchange Act.
Vote Required for Each Proposal
The affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the voting power present at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is necessary for the approval
of each of Proposals 1-8, 10-11, and 13.
The approval of Proposals
9 and 12 require the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power present at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon,
and as long as one of following conditions is met:
|
a. |
The majority of shares that voted for the approval of the respective resolution includes at least majority of the shares held by non-controlling and non-interested shareholders voted at the Meeting (excluding abstaining votes); or |
|
|
|
|
b. |
The total number of shares of non-controlling and non-interested shareholders that voted against the approval of the respective resolution does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in the Company. |
Under the Companies Law, (1)
the term “Controlling Shareholder” means a shareholder having the ability to direct the activities of a company, other than
by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if the shareholder holds 50% or more of
the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its chief executive officer;
and (2) a “personal interest” of a shareholder (i) includes a personal interest of any members of the shareholder’s
family (or spouses thereof) or a personal interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder (or such family member) serves as
a director or the CEO, owns at least 5% of the shares or has the right to appoint a director or the CEO but (ii) excludes an interest
arising solely from the ownership of our ordinary shares. As of the date hereof, we have no Controlling Shareholder within the above meaning
of the Companies Law. However, according to the Companies Law, if there is no shareholder who holds 50% or more of the voting rights in
a company, any shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in a company will be considered a “Controlling Shareholder”
with respect to approval of related party transactions. Therefore, currently, no shareholder is regarded as a Controlling Shareholder.
The Companies Law requires
that each shareholder voting on Proposals 9 and 12 will indicate whether or not the shareholder has a personal interest in the proposed
resolutions. Otherwise, the shareholder is not eligible to vote on such proposals. As such, in the proxy card attached to the
proxy statement you will be asked to indicate whether you have a personal interest with respect to Proposals 9 and 12. If any shareholder
casting a vote in connection hereto does not notify us whether or not they have a personal interest with respect to Proposals 9 and 12
their vote with respect to such Proposals will be disqualified.
If you provide specific instructions
(mark boxes) with regard to certain proposals, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign and return your proxy card or voting
instruction form without giving specific instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board.
The proxy holders will vote in their discretion on any other matters that properly come before the Meeting.

public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and until our next annual general meeting of shareholders, is hereby

Board Recommendation
Our Board recommends a vote
FOR the foregoing resolution approving the reappointment of our independent auditors and authorization of our Audit Committee or Board
to fix the independent auditors’ compensation.
PROPOSAL 2
APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S
ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
Background
On August 6, 2024 the Board
resolved to approve that, in case the majority of the Company’s directors are independent and there is no controlling shareholder
in the Company, the Company shall adopt all the reliefs under regulation 5D of the Companies Regulations (facilitation for companies whose
securities are listed for trading on a stock exchange outside of Israel), 2000, releasing the Company from its obligations under sections
115, 116A, 118A, 219(c), 239(a), 243, and 249 of the Israeli Companies Law.
Further to the above resolution,
the Board resolved to approve and recommend to the Company’s Shareholders meeting to approve an amendment of the Company’s
Articles in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Articles Amendment”), relating to the appointment of directors,
including to establish a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms of office
(the “Classified Board”).
Our
Articles of Association currently provide that all of the Company’s directors (other than external directors) are to be elected
annually to serve until their successors have been elected and qualified. However, if the Articles Amendment is approved and
the Classified Board structure becomes effective, our Board would be classified into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible,
with each class having a three-year term expiring in a different year. However, for the initial terms immediately following the division
of the Board into three classes, directors would be assigned terms of one, two or three years, as described below.
If
this Proposal 2 is approved, the Board has initially designated the three classes to initially contain the following directors, if elected at
the Meeting:
Class I Director (Term
to Expire at the 2025 Annual General Meeting)
Ariel Dor
Hila Kiron
Class II Director (Term
to Expire at the 2026 Annual General Meeting)
Oz Adler
Mark Cleobury
Class III Director
(Term to Expire at the 2027 Annual General Meeting)
Eli Yoresh
Yossi Daskal
If
this Proposal 2 is approved at the Meeting and the Classified Board structure becomes effective, at each successive annual general meeting of
shareholders following the Meeting, the class of directors to be elected in such year would be elected for a three-year term so that the
term of office of one class of directors expires in each year. If this Proposal 2 is not approved at the Meeting, then each director
will continue to be elected annually, at our annual general meeting of shareholders.
The
Classified Board structure also provides that a director (other than an external director) elected by the Board 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. Any additional directorships resulting
from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed between the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will
consist of one-third of the total number of directors.
To
preserve the Classified Board structure and other provisions in Article 39 of our Articles relating the appointment of directors, if approved
at the Meeting, the proposed Articles Amendment provides that any amendment to the provisions of Article 39 of our Articles relating to
the Classified Board and certain other provisions of Article 39 relating to the appointment of directors, as set forth in the Articles
Amendment, shall require the approval of at least sixty-six and two thirds’ percent (66 2/3%) of the ordinary
shares represented at a shareholder meeting, in person or by proxy, voting on the matter, which we refer to as the “Special
Majority Amendment Provision.” Under the Companies Law, in order to include the Special Majority Amendment Provision in our
Articles, such provision must be approved by the shareholders by the same special majority. Accordingly, if this Proposal 2 is approved
by our shareholders at the Meeting (by an ordinary majority) but does not receive the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
sixty-six and two thirds’ percent (66 2/3%) of the ordinary shares represented at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, voting
on the proposal, the Articles Amendment shall be approved without the Special Majority Amendment Provision.
Further,
our Articles currently provide that directors shall be elected at an annual meeting and/or an extraordinary meeting and we are proposing
to amend Article 39 of our Articles to provide that directors shall be elected only at an annual meeting, as set forth on Exhibit
A attached hereto.
Advantages of Proposed
Amendments to Articles of Association
Our
Board believes that the proposed amendments to the Articles will help to assure the continuity and stability of our long-term policies
in the future and to reduce our vulnerability to hostile and potentially abusive takeover tactics that could be adverse to the
best interests of the Company’s shareholders. A longer term in office would allow our directors to stay focused on long-term
value creation, without undue pressure that may come from special interest groups intent on pursuing their own agenda at the expense of
the interests of the Company and its other shareholders. Further, it would enable us to benefit more effectively from directors’
experience, knowledge of the Company and wisdom, while helping us attract and retain highly qualified individuals willing to commit the
time and dedication necessary to understand the Company and its operations. The Classified Board would not preclude unsolicited acquisition
proposals but, by eliminating the threat of imminent removal, would put our Board in a position to act to maximize value for all shareholders.
Unless a director is removed or resigns, three annual elections are needed to replace all the directors on the classified Board. The proposed
amendments to the Articles may, therefore, discourage an individual or entity from acquiring a significant position in the Company’s
shares with the intention of obtaining immediate control of the Board, without the cooperation of our Board. If this Proposal 2
is approved at the Meeting, these provisions will be applicable to each annual election of directors (other than external directors),
including the elections following any change of control of the Company.
Disadvantages of
Proposed Amendments to Articles of Association
While
the proposed amendments to the Articles may have the beneficial effects discussed immediately above, it may also discourage some takeover
bids, including some that would otherwise allow shareholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the market price of their shares
or that a majority of our shareholders otherwise believes may be in their best interests to accept or where the reason for the desired
change is inadequate performance of our directors or management. Because of the additional time required to change control of our
Board, the proposed amendments to the Articles may make it more difficult and more expensive for a potential acquirer to gain control
of our Board and the Company, even if the takeover bidder were to acquire a majority of our outstanding shares. Currently, a change
in control of our Board can be made by shareholders holding a majority of the votes cast at a single annual or extraordinary meeting of
shareholders where there is a contested director election. If the proposed amendments to the Articles are amended, it will take
at least two annual general meetings of shareholders following the annual meeting at which the Classified Board structure becomes effective
for a potential acquirer to effect a change in control of our Board or to take action to remove other impediments to its acquisition of
our Company, even if the potential acquirer were to acquire a majority of our outstanding ordinary shares.
Further,
the proposed Articles Amendments will make it more difficult for shareholders to change the majority composition of the Board, even if
the shareholders believe such a change would be beneficial. Because the proposed amendments to the Articles will make the removal
or replacement of directors more difficult, it would increase the directors’ security in their positions, and could be viewed as
tending to perpetuate incumbent management.
However,
our Board believes that forcing potential bidders to negotiate with our Board for a change of control transaction will allow
our Board to better maximize shareholders value in any change of control transaction. The Board is not presently aware of any attempt,
or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company.
Proposed Resolution
It is proposed that at the
Meeting the following resolution be adopted:
Proposal No. 2 - “RESOLVED,
to approve the amendment of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association relating to the appointment of directors
of the Company, including to classify the Board of Directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms, as detailed in the Proxy
Statement dated August 16, 2024.”
Required Vote
The affirmative vote of the

Proposal No. 9 - “RESOLVED,
to approve the amendment of the Company’s Remuneration Policy as detailed in the Proxy Statement dated August 16, 2024.”

Under the Companies Law and
our articles of association, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented at the Meeting, in person

The total number of shares of non-controlling and non-interested shareholders that voted against the approval of the respective resolution does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in the Company. |
Under the Companies Law, (1)
the term “controlling shareholder” means a shareholder having the ability to direct the activities of a company, other

of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its chief executive officer;

arising solely from the ownership of our ordinary shares. According to the Companies Law, if there is no shareholder who holds 50% or
more of the voting rights in a company, any shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in a company will be considered a “Controlling
Shareholder” with respect to approval of related party transactions.
The Companies Law requires
that each shareholder voting on Proposal 9 will indicate whether or not the shareholder is a controlling shareholder or has a personal
interest in the proposed resolution. Otherwise, the shareholder is not eligible to vote on such proposals. As such, in the proxy
card attached to the proxy statement you will be asked to indicate whether you are a controlling shareholder or have a personal interest
with respect to Proposal 9. If any shareholder casting a vote in connection hereto does not notify us whether or not they are controlling
shareholders or have a personal interest with respect to Proposal 9 their vote with respect to such Proposal will be disqualified.

arising solely from the ownership of our ordinary shares. According to the Companies Law, if there is no shareholder who holds 50% or
more of the voting rights in a company, any shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in a company will be considered a “Controlling
Shareholder” with respect to approval of related party transactions.
The Companies Law requires
that each shareholder voting on Proposal 12 will indicate whether or not the shareholder is a controlling shareholder or has a personal
interest in the proposed resolution. Otherwise, the shareholder is not eligible to vote on such proposals. As such, in the proxy
card attached to the proxy statement you will be asked to indicate whether you are a controlling shareholder or have a personal interest
with respect to Proposal 12. If any shareholder casting a vote in connection hereto does not notify us whether or not they are
controlling shareholders or have a personal interest with respect to Proposal 12 their vote with respect to such Proposal will be disqualified.
Board Recommendation
Our Board recommends a vote
FOR the grant of 336,000 RSU’s to Mr. Hania.
PROPOSAL 13:
REVERSE SHARE SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S ORDINARY SHARES IN THE RANGE OF UP TO 10:1
Background
On July 22, 2024 we received
a notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement
for continued listing, as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Rule”), which requires
listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and that we had 180 calendar days, until January 21, 2025 (the
“Initial Period”), to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If we are not in compliance by the end of
the Initial Period, we may be afforded a second 180-calendar day compliance period (the “Extension Period”). To qualify
for this additional time, we will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all
other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement and will need to
provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. We can regain compliance if, by the
end of the Extension Period, the closing bid price of our ordinary shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business
days. If we cannot demonstrate compliance by the end of the Extension Period, the Nasdaq staff may notify us that our ordinary shares
are subject to delisting. If our ordinary shares’ bid price does not demonstrate compliance by itself during the abovementioned
timeframe, the proposed reverse share split is intended to adjust our ordinary shares’ bid price. If the reverse share split is
authorized by our shareholders, our Board will have the discretion to implement the reverse share split at a ratio within the range that
was approved by the shareholders or effect no reverse share split at all.
Due to the decrease in the
share price of the Company’s ordinary shares, we believe that a reverse share split of our ordinary shares is advisable in order
to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Rule. In addition, we also believe that a reverse split of our ordinary shares
may make our ordinary shares more attractive to a broader range of investors, including professional investors, institutional investors
and the general investing public. Our Board believes that the anticipated increased price resulting from the reverse share split may generate
additional interest and trading in our ordinary shares.
We are therefore seeking approval
of the shareholders to approve a reverse share split of the Company’s ordinary shares in the range of up to 10:1, to be effected
at the discretion of, and at such ratio and at such date as shall be determined by the Board (the “Reverse Split”), and subject
to and upon such determination, to amend the Company’s Articles accordingly. If the Reverse Split is approved by our shareholders,
then the Board will have the authority to decide whether and when to implement the Reverse Split and to determine the exact ratio for
the Reverse Split within the range. Following such determination, if any, by our Board, we will issue a press release announcing the effective
date of the Reverse Split and will amend our Articles accordingly to effect such Reverse Split. The Company is required to give notice
to Nasdaq at least 5 trading days prior to the record date of a Reverse Split.
If the Reverse Split is implemented,
the number of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares would be reduced in accordance with the Reverse Split ratio selected by the Board
while the number of Ordinary Shares in the Company’s authorized share capital shall remain unchanged. Furthermore, upon completion
of the Reverse Split, the number of ordinary shares issuable pursuant to our Amended Share Option Plan, as well as the number of shares
and exercise prices subject to outstanding options under the plan shall be appropriately adjusted (including the number of the RSUs granted
by the Company to the Chairman of the Board, our CEO and to members of the Board, to the extent approved by the shareholders at the Meeting).
In the event that the Company’s
shareholders do not approve the Reverse Split and the proposed amendments to the Company’s Articles and the Company does not otherwise
regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirements in the requisite time period, the Company’s ordinary shares will likely
be delisted from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Delisting could also negatively impact the Company’s ability to secure additional
financing. Accordingly, the Board recommends that the shareholders vote to approve the Reverse Split as described above, on a date and
at such ratio to be determined by our Board, which will be announced by the Company and to authorize the Company to amend the Articles
accordingly.
Implementation of Reverse Split
If our shareholders approve
the Reverse Split and our Board decides to effectuate the Reverse Split, each block of up to 10 (depending on the Reverse Split ratio)
ordinary shares issued and outstanding will be reclassified and changed into one fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share of the Company.
In addition, the number of authorized ordinary shares that the Company may issue will be reclassified, and proportionately decreased in
accordance with the Reverse Split ratio.
Upon the implementation of
the Reverse Split, we intend to treat shares held by shareholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner
as registered shareholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed
to effect the Reverse Split for their beneficial holders holding our ordinary shares in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians
or other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing the Reverse Split. Shareholders who hold our
ordinary shares 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.
Our registered holders of ordinary
shares hold their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These shareholders do not have share certificates
evidencing their ownership of their ordinary shares. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered
in their accounts. Registered holders 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 Split ordinary shares. No fractional shares will be issued
as a result of the Reverse Split. In accordance with our Articles, all fractional shares will be rounded to the nearest whole ordinary
share, such that only shareholders holding fractional consolidated shares of more than half of the number of shares which consolidation
constitutes one whole share, shall be entitled to receive one consolidated share.
Certain Risks Associated with the Reverse
Split
There are numerous factors
and contingencies that could affect our price following the proposed Reverse Split, including the status of the market for our ordinary
shares at the time, our reported results of operations in future periods, and general economic, market and industry conditions. Accordingly,
the market price of our ordinary shares may not be sustainable at the direct arithmetic result of the Reverse Split. If the market price
of our ordinary shares declines after the Reverse Split, our total market capitalization (the aggregate value of all of our outstanding
ordinary shares at the then existing market price) after the Reverse Split will be lower than before the Reverse Split.
The Reverse Split may result
in some shareholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 ordinary shares on a post-split basis. Odd lots may be more difficult
to sell, or require greater transaction costs per share to sell, than shares in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is a summary
of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of our ordinary
shares. This summary does not purport to be a complete discussion of all of the possible U.S. federal income tax consequences. Further,
it does not address the impact of the Medicare surtax on certain net investment income or the alternative minimum tax, U.S. federal
estate or gift tax laws, any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences or any tax treaties. Also, it does not address the
tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as (i) persons who are not U.S. Holders; (ii) banks,
insurance companies, or other financial institutions; (iii) regulated investment companies; (iv) tax-qualified retirement plans;
(v) dealers in securities and foreign currencies; (vi) persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; (vii) traders
in securities that use the mark-to-market method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (viii) persons deemed to
sell our ordinary shares under the constructive sale provisions of the Code; (ix) persons that acquired our ordinary shares through
the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan; (x) persons that
hold our ordinary shares as part of a straddle, appreciated financial position, synthetic security, hedge, conversion transaction or other
integrated investment or risk reduction transaction; (xi) persons that own, directly, indirectly or constructively, at any time,
ordinary shares representing 5% or more of our voting power or value; (xii) certain former citizens or long-term residents of the
United States; and (xiii) tax-exempt entities or governmental organizations.
As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder”
means a beneficial owner of our ordinary shares that is (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a
corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized (or treated
as created or organized) in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an
estate whose income is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust
if (x) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons
are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (y) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury
regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
The discussion is based on
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial
authority as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. This
summary also assumes that the ordinary shares prior to the Reverse Split (the “Old Shares”) were, and the ordinary shares
after the Reverse Split (the “New Shares”) will be, held as a “capital asset,” as defined within the meaning of
Section 1221 of the Code (i.e., generally, property held for investment). The tax treatment of a U.S. Holder may vary depending
upon the particular facts and circumstances of such U.S. Holder. Each shareholder is urged to consult with such shareholder’s
own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of the Reverse Split.
If a partnership (or other
entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our ordinary shares,
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 ordinary shares, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own
tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split.
We have not sought and will
not seek any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or an opinion from counsel, with respect to the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of the Reverse Split. Our view regarding the tax consequences of the Reverse Split is not binding on the IRS or
the courts. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will agree with such statements and conclusions.
The Reverse Split is intended
to constitute a “recapitalization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, subject to the discussion regarding
passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), status below, no gain or loss should be recognized by a U.S. Holder upon
such U.S. Holder’s exchange (or deemed exchange) of Old Shares for New Shares pursuant to the Reverse Split. The aggregate
tax basis of the New Shares received (or deemed received) in the Reverse Split should be the same as the U.S. Holder’s aggregate
tax basis in the Old Shares exchanged (or deemed exchanged) therefor. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New Shares should
include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the Old Shares surrendered (or deemed surrendered) in the Reverse Split. U.S. holders
that hold ordinary shares acquired on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding identifying
the bases and holding periods of the particular ordinary shares they hold after the Reverse Split.
Pursuant to Section 1291(f) of
the Code, to the extent provided in U.S. Treasury regulations, if a U.S. person transfers stock in a PFIC in a transaction that
does not result in full recognition of gain, then any unrecognized gain is required to be recognized notwithstanding any non-recognition
provision in the Code. The U.S. Treasury has issued proposed regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code, but they have
not been finalized. The IRS could take the position that Section 1291(f) of the Code is effective even in the absence of finalized
regulations, or the regulations could be finalized with retroactive effect. Accordingly, no assurances can be provided as to the potential
applicability of Section 1291(f) of the Code to the Reverse Split.
Based
on the projected composition of the Company’s income and valuation of its assets, the Company may have been a PFIC during 2023,
and although the Company has not determined whether it will be a PFIC in 2024, or in any subsequent year, its operating results for any
such years may cause it to be a PFIC. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to the Company’s status as a PFIC
for the taxable year ending December 31, 2024, or any subsequent taxable year. If the Company is treated as a PFIC with respect to
a U.S. Holder and Section 1291(f) applies to the U.S. Holder’s exchange (or deemed exchange) of Old Shares for
New Shares pursuant to the Reverse Split, the U.S. Holder may be required to recognize any gain realized on such transfer, in which
case such gain generally would be subject to the “excess distribution” rules under Section 1291 of the Code. U.S. Holders
should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split if the Company were
treated as a PFIC.
Each shareholder should consult
with his, her or its own tax advisor with respect to all of the potential tax consequences to such shareholder of the Reverse Split, including
the applicability and effect of any state, local, and non-U.S. tax laws, as well as U.S. federal tax laws and any applicable
tax treaties.
THE U.S. CONSEQUENCES
OF THE REVERSE SPLIT MAY DEPEND UPON THE PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES OF EACH SHAREHOLDER. ACCORDINGLY, EACH SHAREHOLDER IS ADVISED TO
CONSULT THE SHAREHOLDER’S TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE SHAREHOLDER OF THE REVERSE SPLIT.
