On July 15, 2024, MediWound, Ltd. (the “Company” or “MediWound”) entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with the purchasers listed on the signature
pages thereto (the “Purchasers”), for the offer and sale by the Company to the Purchasers (the “Private Placement”) of ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.07 per share, of the Company (the “ordinary shares”). The Private Placement is
expected to raise gross proceeds of $25 million for the Company from the Purchasers, at a price per ordinary share of $17.20. The Private Placement is being effected pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) contained in Section 4(a)(2) of and/or Regulation D under the Securities Act. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement, following the payment of fees and expenses, primarily
for (i) the advancement of the Company’s pre-commercial activities for the Company’s EscharEx® debridement therapy for the treatment of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, (ii) expediting the development of large-scale manufacturing
capabilities specifically for EscharEx, and (iii) general corporate purposes.
Concurrently with its receipt of an investment of $15 million from Mölnlycke Health Care AB (“Mölnlycke”), a world-leading MedTech company specializing in solutions for wound care and surgical
procedures, pursuant to the Private Placement, the Company also entered into a collaboration and rights agreement, dated July 15, 2024, with Mölnlycke (the “Collaboration Agreement”). Under the Collaboration Agreement, MediWound shall be able to
benefit from Mölnlycke’s comprehensive global expertise in advanced wound care. Accordingly, if requested by MediWound, Mölnlycke shall provide MediWound with commercial insights, clinical and regulatory experience, and educational resources. Besides
the parties’ collaboration in that manner, the Collaboration Agreement also grants Mölnlycke certain specific rights, including:
The Collaboration Agreement contains stand-still provisions that limit Mölnlycke's ownership to no more than 9.99% of MediWound’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares during the duration of the
agreement, including pursuant to any voting or other agreement.
On July 15, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the prospective Private Placement and entry into the Collaboration Agreement. A copy of that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1
to this Form 6-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.

neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company and its Subsidiaries believe that their relationships with their employees are good. To the knowledge of the Company, no executive
officer of the Company or any Subsidiary is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract
or agreement or any restrictive covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters.
The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure
to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(l) Compliance. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary: (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived

loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment, decree, or order
of any court, arbitrator or other governmental authority or (iii) is or has been in violation of any statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local laws

(m) Environmental Laws. The Company and its Subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws relating to pollution or
protection of human health or the environment (including ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants,
contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling
of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands, or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations, issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder

such permit, license or approval where in each clause (i), (ii) and (iii), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(n) Regulatory Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state,
local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material
Permits”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.
(o) Title to Assets. The Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to, or have valid and marketable rights to lease or
otherwise use, all real property owned by them and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for (i) Liens
that do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and (ii) Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes,
for which appropriate reserves have been made in accordance with IFRS, and the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of any claim of any sort
that has been asserted by anyone adverse to the rights of the Company or its Subsidiaries under any of the leases or subleases or licenses or with respect to the properties mentioned above, or affecting or questioning the rights of the Company or any
Subsidiary to the continued possession or use of the leased or subleased or licensed premises or the properties mentioned above, other than such claims which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(p) Intellectual Property. The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the SEC

Intellectual Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights
violate or infringe upon the rights of any Person, and neither is aware of any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such claim, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the
Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the
secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties and to protect and maintain their Intellectual Property Rights, except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no knowledge of any facts that would preclude it from having valid license rights or clear title to the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company has no knowledge that it lacks or will be unable to obtain any
rights or licenses to use all Intellectual Property Rights that are necessary to conduct its business.
(q) Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such
amounts as are prudent and customary for companies of the Company’s size and in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged, including, but not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage in amount deemed prudent by
the Company. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary
to continue its business without a significant increase in cost.
(r) Transactions with Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(r), during the past three fiscal years and the subsequent interim
period through the date of this Agreement, none of the officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company or any Subsidiary is presently a party to any transaction with

to or from, providing for the borrowing of money from or lending of money to or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such
employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee, shareholder, member or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for (i) payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses
incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii) other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company.
(s) Sarbanes-Oxley; Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries are in material compliance with any and all applicable requirements of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date. Except as set
forth on Schedule 3.1(s), the Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general
or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company and the Subsidiaries have established
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company
in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of
the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed annual report on Form 20-F under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company
presented in its most recently filed annual report on Form 20-F under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.
Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) of the Company and its Subsidiaries that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(t) Certain Fees. No brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company or any Subsidiary to any broker, financial advisor
or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims
made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(u) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no registration under the
Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated hereby. The issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the Trading Market.
(v) Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Shares, will not be or be an
Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject to registration under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(w) Registration Rights. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.1(w) and other than to each of the Purchasers pursuant to Section 4.14 of this Agreement, no
Person has any right to cause the Company or any Subsidiary to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company or any Subsidiary.
(x) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has
taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Ordinary Shares under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports or on Schedule 3.1(x), the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are or have been listed
or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance
with all such listing and maintenance requirements, other than with respect to the shareholders equity requirement for continued listing under the Trading Market. The Ordinary Shares are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the
Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer.
(y) No TID U.S. Business. The Company has conducted an assessment and determined that none of the Company, any Company Subsidiary, or any of their
respective Affiliates (a) produce, design, test, manufacture, fabricate, or develop “critical technologies” as that term is defined in 31 C.F.R. § 800.215; (b) perform the functions as set forth in column 2 of Appendix A to 31 C.F.R. part 800 with
respect to covered investment critical infrastructure; or (c) maintain or collect, directly or indirectly, “sensitive personal data” as that term is defined in 31 C.F.R. § 800.241; and, therefore, in turn, is not a “TID U.S. business” within the
meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.248.
(z) Disclosure. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company
confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information. The Company
understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding the Company and
its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct in all material respects and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding
the date of this Agreement taken as a whole do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made and when made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set
forth in Section 3.2 hereof.
(aa) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, neither the Company, nor
any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the Shares to
be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would require the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholders approval provisions of any Trading Market on
which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(bb) Solvency. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of
the proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known
contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular
capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive,
were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to
incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that
it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. Schedule 3.1(bb) sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” means (x) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $250,000
(other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (y) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the
Company’s consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the present value of any lease
payments in excess of $250,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with IFRS. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such
returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company or of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.
(dd) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any Person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold any of the Shares by any form of
general solicitation or general advertising. The Company has offered the Shares for sale only to the Purchasers and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.

any of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents.

capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any
similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Shares. The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been
based solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.

acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such Purchaser
first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the
investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the
investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or to such Purchaser’s representatives, including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other
advisors, employees, agents and Affiliates, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to locating or borrowing shares in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in this Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.11, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to locating or borrowing shares in
order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.
ARTICLE IV.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer Restrictions.
(a) The Shares may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Shares other than pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of
counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred
Shares under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.
(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Shares in substantially the following form:
THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM,
OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED
BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
(c) Certificates or book-entry interests evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof), or any
legend with respect thereto shall be removed, (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act and a Purchaser requests to remove any legends in connection with a prospective sale under
such registration statement, (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144 and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144, (iii) if such Shares are eligible for sale or may be sold
under Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions upon receipt of a seller representation letter with respect to the anticipated sale of such Shares, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities
Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall, following request by the Purchaser, if the applicable Shares are then eligible for legend removal, cause its counsel to issue a
legal opinion to the Transfer Agent or the Purchaser if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder, or if requested by a Purchaser, respectively. If the Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and the Company is then in
compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144, or if the Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such
Shares or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission), then such Shares shall be issued free of all legends
(or the existing legend with respect thereto shall be removed).
(d) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees with the Company that such Purchaser will sell any Shares pursuant to either the
registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Shares are sold pursuant to a Resale Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the
plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Shares as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.
4.2 Furnishing of Information; Public Information.
(a) Until no Purchaser owns any Shares, the Company covenants to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration
of the Ordinary Shares under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to use commercially reasonable best efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be
filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
(b) At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of the Shares may be sold
without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company (i) shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement
under Rule 144(c) or (ii) has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in
addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Shares, an amount in cash
equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Shares on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (prorated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the
earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchasers to transfer the Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled
pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure
Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner,
such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information
Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
4.3 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the
Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for
purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholders’ approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholders’ approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
4.4 Shares Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall (a) by the Disclosure Time, issue a press release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated
hereby without mentioning the name of the Purchasers (unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and a specific Purchaser), and (b) promptly furnish to the Commission a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, including the Transaction Documents
to the extent legally required and after redacting the names of the Purchasers as exhibits thereto. From and after the issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the Purchasers that it shall have publicly disclosed all material,
non-public information delivered to any of the Purchasers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In
addition, effective upon the issuance of such press release, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or
any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and any of the Purchasers or any of their Affiliates on the other hand, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. The Company understands and
confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any Purchaser,
or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law or regulation (including the rules of any
stock exchange), in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to obtain the approval of the
Purchaser for any press release not associated with the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the
Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (a) to the extent required by federal securities law in connection with (i) any Resale Registration Statement contemplated by this
Agreement and (ii) the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which such cases the Company shall (x) obtain prior advice of competent
counsel that such disclosure is required, (y) provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this Section 4.4 and (z) reasonably cooperate with such Purchasers regarding such disclosure.
4.5 Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an “Acquiring
Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any
Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Shares under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.
4.6 Non-Public Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall be disclosed
pursuant to Section 4.4, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes
constitutes, material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have consented in writing to the receipt of such information and agreed in writing with the Company to keep such information confidential. The Company understands
and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents,
employees or Affiliates delivers any material, non-public information to a Purchaser without such Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its
Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates, or a duty to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates not to trade on the basis
of, such material, non-public information, provided that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information
regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously with the delivery of such notice furnish such notice to the Commission pursuant to a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K. The Company understands and confirms that
each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
4.7 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder for general corporate purposes (which for the avoidance of doubt may
include acquisitions, in the Company’s discretion), including working capital. The Company shall not use such proceeds: (a) for the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the
Company’s business and prior practices), (b) for the redemption of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents, (c) for the settlement of any outstanding litigation or (d) in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations.
4.8 Indemnification of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.8, the Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers,
shareholders, members, partners, employees, affiliates, and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls such
Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a
Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and
expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (b) any action instituted against a Purchaser Party in any capacity (including a Purchaser Party’s status as an
investor), or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by the Company or any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, arising out of or relating to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification provided herein is intended to, and shall also cover, direct claims brought by the Company against the Purchaser Parties; provided, however, that such indemnification in direct claims brought
by the Company against any Purchaser Party shall not cover any loss, claim, damage or liability to the extent it is finally judicially determined to be attributable to such Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in any Transaction Document or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any action shall be brought against
any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and, except with respect to direct claims brought by the Company, the Company shall have
the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable
period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the applicable Purchaser Party (which may be internal counsel), a material conflict on any material issue between
the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party
under this Agreement for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition, if any Purchaser Party takes actions to collect amounts due under any
Transaction Documents or to enforce the provisions of any Transaction Documents, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by such Purchaser Party for such collection, enforcement or action, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and
disbursements. The indemnification and other payment obligations required by this Section 4.8 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation, defense, collection, enforcement or action, as and when
bills are received or are incurred; provided, that if any Purchaser Party is finally judicially determined not to be entitled to indemnification or payment under this Section 4.8, such Purchaser Party shall promptly reimburse the Company for any
payments that are advanced under this sentence. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject
to pursuant to law.
4.9 Listing of Registrable Shares. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Registrable Shares (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) upon
each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Ordinary Shares are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing of all Registrable Shares from time to time issuable
under the terms of the Transaction Documents. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Ordinary Shares on the Principal Market. The
Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 4.9.
4.10 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to
a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted
to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to
the purchase, disposition or voting of Shares or otherwise.
4.11 Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on
its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending at such time that the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage
in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, (ii) no Purchaser shall be
restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant
to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents or Affiliates after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio
managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth
above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement.
4.12 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly
upon request of any Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Shares for, sale to the Purchasers at the Closing under applicable
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Purchaser.
4.13 Legal Fees. On the Closing, the Company shall bear the legal fees and expenses of legal counsel of Mölnlycke Health Care AB in a total amount of US$75,000 plus VAT.
ARTICLE V.
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations
between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has not been consummated on or before the fifth (5th) Trading Day following the date hereof. No such termination will affect the right of
any party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties).
5.2 Fees and Expenses. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel,
accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees (including, without
limitation, any fees required for same-day processing of any instruction letter delivered by the Company and any exercise notice delivered by a Purchaser), stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Shares to
the Purchasers.
5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits, schedules and documents incorporated by reference thereto, contain the entire understanding of
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and
schedules.

material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously furnish such notice to the Commission pursuant to a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K.
5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment,
by the Company and each Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought, provided that if any amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser
(or group of Purchasers), the consent of such disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to
be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the
exercise of any such right. Any proposed amendment or waiver that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Purchasers shall require
the prior written consent of such adversely affected Purchaser. Any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon each Purchaser and holder of Shares and the Company.
5.6 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
5.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not
assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger). Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser
assigns or transfers any Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers.”
5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the
benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.8 and this Section 5.8.
5.9 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York (except to the extent the Escrow Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Israel), without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that
except to the extent the Escrow Agreement provides otherwise, all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought
against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. Each
party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction
contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, except to the extent the Escrow Agreement provides otherwise), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any
Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it
under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.8, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be
reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.
5.10 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares for the applicable statute of limitations.
5.11 Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by e-mail delivery
(including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method, such
signature shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an
original thereof.
5.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or
unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction
Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or
withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.
5.14 Replacement of Shares. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in
exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.
5.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company
will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and
hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or
exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are
required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to
the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.17 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in
any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation,
the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. The Company has elected to provide all

and payable shall have been canceled.

every reference to share prices and Ordinary Shares in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Ordinary Shares that occur
after the date of this Agreement. Furthermore, the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”.
5.21 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY,
TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.

(a) On or prior to each Filing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the
Registrable Securities that are not then registered on an effective Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. Each Registration Statement filed hereunder shall be on Form F-3 (or Form F-1 to the
extent the Company is not then eligible to use a Form F-3 registration statement, subject to the provisions of Section 2(e)) and shall contain (unless otherwise directed by at least 70% in interest of the Holders) a "plan of distribution" section
substantially in the form of the “Plan of Distribution” attached hereto as Annex A and a "selling shareholders" section substantially in the form of the “Selling Shareholders” section attached hereto as Annex B; provided,
however, that no Holder shall be required to be named as an “underwriter” without such Holder’s express prior written consent. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration
Statement filed under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under Section 3(c)) to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than the applicable Effectiveness
Date, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (i) have been sold, thereunder
or pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 (to the
extent applicable), as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Transfer Agent (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Company shall telephonically request
effectiveness of a Registration Statement as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders via facsimile or by e-mail of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on the same Trading Day that
the Company telephonically confirms effectiveness with the Commission, which shall be the date requested for effectiveness of such Registration Statement. The Company shall, by 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day after the effective
date of such Registration Statement, file a final Prospectus with the Commission as required by Rule 424. Failure to so notify the Holder within one (1) Trading Day of such notification of effectiveness or failure to file a final Prospectus as
foresaid shall be deemed an Event under Section 2(d).
(b) Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in Section 2(a), if the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities
cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly inform each of the Holders thereof and use its reasonable best efforts to file
amendments to the Initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission, covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form F-3 or such other form available to register for resale the
Registrable Securities as a secondary offering, subject to the provisions of Section 2(e); with respect to filing on Form F-3 or other appropriate form, and subject to the provisions of Section 2(d) with respect to the payment of liquidated damages;
provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment, the Company shall be obligated to use reasonable best efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the SEC
Guidance, including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and subject to the payment of liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(d), if the Commission or
any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used reasonable best efforts to advocate
with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such
Registration Statement will be reduced as follows:
|
|
i.
|
First, the Company shall reduce or eliminate any securities to be included other than (i) Registrable Securities and (ii) Other Registrable Securities; and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ii.
|
Second, the Company shall reduce Registrable Securities and Other Registrable Securities (applied on a pro rata basis).
|
In the event of a cutback hereunder, the Company shall give the Holder at least five (5) Trading Days prior written notice along with the calculations as to such Holder’s
allotment. In the event the Company amends the Initial Registration Statement in accordance with the foregoing, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by the Commission or SEC Guidance
provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Initial
Registration Statement, as amended.
(d) If: (i) the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date (if the Company files the Initial Registration Statement without
affording the Holders the opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(a) herein or the Company subsequently withdraws the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company shall be deemed to have not satisfied this clause
(i)) as of the Filing Date, or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration of a Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act, within five (5) Trading
Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) prior to the effective date of a
Registration Statement, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within ten (10) calendar days after the receipt of comments by
or notice from the Commission that such amendment is required in order for such Registration Statement to be declared effective, or (iv) a Registration Statement registering for resale all of the Registrable Securities is not declared effective by
the Commission by the Effectiveness Date of the Initial Registration Statement (provided if the Registration Statement does not allow for the resale of Registrable Securities at prevailing market prices (i.e., only allows for fixed price sales), the
Company shall have been deemed to have not satisfied this clause), or (v) after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities
included in such Registration Statement, or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than ten (10) consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of fifteen (15)
calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period, or (vi) the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to issue to the holder the Registrable Securities free of legend within five (5) Trading Days after the
effective date of a Registration Statement (provided all information required by the holder for this purpose was timely provided) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clauses (i) and (iv), the date
on which such Event occurs, and for purpose of clauses (ii) and (vi) the date on which such five (5) Trading Day period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iii) the date which such ten (10) calendar day period is exceeded, and for purpose of
clause (v) the date on which such ten (10) or fifteen (15) calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as an “Event Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on
each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 1.5% multiplied by the aggregate Subscription Amount paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities that are ineligible for sale without
restriction or limitation. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven (7) days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum (or such lesser
maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages
pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, as long as the Registrable Securities are eligible for sale without
restriction or limitation, the Company shall not accrue any liquidated damages under this Section 2(d) and in any event beyond the 366th day from the date of this Agreement, provided that amounts that have accrued and interest due thereon will
continue to accrue until paid in full.
(e) If Form F-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall (i) register the resale of the
Registrable Securities on another appropriate form and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on Form F-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then
in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form F-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the Commission.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Company be permitted to name any Holder or affiliate of a Holder as an
“underwriter” without the prior written consent of such Holder.
3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall:
(a) Not less than five (5) Trading Days prior to the filing of each Registration Statement and not less than one (1) Trading Day prior to the filing of any
related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (including any document that would be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), the Company shall (i) furnish to each Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be
filed, which documents (other than those incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference) will be subject to the review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent registered public accountants to
respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel to each Holder, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not file a Registration Statement or
any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith, provided that, the Company is notified of such objection in writing no later than
five (5) Trading Days after the Holders have been so furnished copies of a Registration Statement or one (1) Trading Day after the Holders have been so furnished copies of any related Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto. Each Holder
agrees to furnish to the Company a completed questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement as Annex C (a “Selling Shareholder Questionnaire”) on a date that is not less than two (2) Trading Days prior to the Filing Date
or by the end of the fifth (5th) Trading Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in accordance with this Section.
(b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period and prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration Statements
in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities, (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this Agreement), and, as so
supplemented or amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424, (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and provide as promptly as
reasonably possible to the Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to a Registration Statement (provided that, the Company shall excise any information contained therein which would constitute
material non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and (iv) comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended
or in such Prospectus as so supplemented.
(c) If during the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable Securities at any time exceeds 100% of the number of Ordinary Shares then registered in a
Registration Statement, then the Company shall file as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any case prior to the applicable Filing Date, an additional Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than the number of such
Registrable Securities.
(d) Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be accompanied by an
instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made) as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than one (1) Trading Day prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such
Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one (1) Trading Day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be filed, (B) when the Commission
notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement, and (C) with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that
purpose, (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of
any Proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a Registration
Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, and (vi) of the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development with respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the determination of the Company, makes it not
in the best interest of the Company to allow continued availability of a Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided, however, that in no event shall any such notice contain any information which would constitute material,
non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Company agrees that the Holders shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company and shall not have any duty to the Company not to trade on the basis of such
information.
(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order stopping or suspending the
effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
(f) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each such Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference to the extent requested by such Person, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or
incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission, provided that any such item which is available on the EDGAR system (or successor thereto) need not be furnished in physical form.
(g) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of
the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 3(d).
(h) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders
in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United
States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement, provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject
the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(i) If requested by a Holder, cooperate with such Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable
Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as any such Holder may request.
(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(d), as promptly as reasonably possible under the circumstances taking into account the
Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its shareholders of the premature disclosure of such event, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to a Registration Statement or a
supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company
notifies the Holders in accordance with clauses (iii) through (vi) of Section 3(d) above to suspend the use of any Prospectus until the requisite changes to such Prospectus have been made, then the Holders shall suspend use of such Prospectus. The
Company will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable. The Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(j) to suspend the availability of a
Registration Statement and Prospectus, subject to the payment of partial liquidated damages otherwise required pursuant to Section 2(d), for a period not to exceed sixty (60) calendar days (which need not be consecutive days) in any 12-month period.
(k) Otherwise use reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, including, without limitation, Rule 172 under the Securities Act, file any final Prospectus, including any supplement or amendment thereof, with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, promptly inform the Holders in writing
if, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company does not satisfy the conditions specified in Rule 172 and, as a result thereof, the Holders are required to deliver a Prospectus in connection with any disposition of Registrable Securities
and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder.
(l) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain eligibility for use of Form F-3 (or any successor form thereto) for the registration of
the resale of Registrable Securities (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form F-3 (without derogating from the Company’s obligation in this clause), in which case such registration shall be
on another appropriate form in accordance herewith).
(m) The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified statement as to the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by
such Holder and, if required by the Commission, the natural persons thereof that have voting and dispositive control over the Ordinary Shares. During any periods that the Company is unable to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the
registration of the Registrable Securities solely because any Holder fails to furnish such information within five (5) Trading Days of the Company’s request, any liquidated damages that are accruing at such time as to such Holder only shall be tolled
and any Event that may otherwise occur solely because of such delay shall be suspended as to such Holder only, until such information is delivered to the Company.
(n) If reasonably requested by a Holder in connection with a sale of Registrable Securities, prepare and present to potential investors customary “road
show” or marketing materials in a manner consistent with other new issuances of other securities similar to the Registrable Securities.
4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of, or compliance with, this Agreement by the Company
shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees
(including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent registered public accountants) (A) with respect to filings made with the Commission, (B) with respect to filings required to be made with any Trading Market on
which the Ordinary Shares are then listed for trading, and (C) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws reasonably agreed to by the Company in writing (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company in connection with Blue Sky qualifications or exemptions of the Registrable Securities), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities), (iii) messenger, telephone and
delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance to be purchased at the sole discretion of the Company, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other
Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any broker or similar commissions of any Holder or, except to the extent provided for in the
Transaction Documents, any legal fees or other costs of the Holders.
5. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder,
the officers, directors, members, partners, agents, brokers (including brokers who offer and sell Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any failure to perform under a margin call of Ordinary Shares), investment advisors and
employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, shareholders, partners, agents and employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles, notwithstanding a
lack of such title or any other title) of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of or relating to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
Prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (2) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or
regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder
furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly
approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in a Registration Statement, such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex C hereto for this purpose) or (ii) in the case
of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(d)(iii)-(vi), the use by such Holder of an outdated, defective or otherwise unavailable Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated,
defective or otherwise unavailable for use by such Holder and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(c). The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding
arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such indemnified person and
shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by any of the Holders in accordance with Section 6(g).
(b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or in
any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
Prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by
such Holder to the Company expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such information relates to such Holder’s information provided in the Selling Shareholder
Questionnaire or the proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in a Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex
C hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of a selling Holder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such Holder in
connection with any claim relating to this Section 5 and the amount of any damages such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission) received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review)
that such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense
of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party, and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such
Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and
expenses of no more than one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent
incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified
Party harmless for any Losses, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party
in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such
Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses
shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for
such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by
any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a Holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount
than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such Holder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 5 and the amount of any damages such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties.
6. Miscellaneous.
(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or
the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. Each of the
Company and each Holder agrees that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall not assert or shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(b) No Piggyback on Registrations; Prohibition on Filing Other Registration Statements. Neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other
than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto, or any security holder with existing rights to include securities in a Registration Statement) may include securities of the Company in any Registration Statements other than the Registrable
Securities (or any securities subject to existing registration rights with respect to which the Company uses reasonable best efforts to obtain a waiver of such registration rights, but the holders thereof refuse to provide such waiver). The Company
shall not file any other registration statements until all Registrable Securities are registered pursuant to a Registration Statement that is declared effective by the Commission, provided that this Section 6(b) shall not prohibit the Company from
filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to the date of this Agreement, or registration statements on Form F-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be
issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s share option or other employee benefit plans.
(c) Discontinued Disposition. By its acquisition of Registrable Securities, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of
the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d)(iii) through (vi), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”)
by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is
practicable. The Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods during which the Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable Securities hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2(d).
(d) Piggy-Back Registrations. If, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the
Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities,
other than on Form F-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable
in connection with the Company’s share option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within twenty (20) days after the date of the delivery of such notice, any
such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 6(d) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (without volume restrictions and provided the Company is in compliance with the current public information requirement
under Rule 144) promulgated by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or that are the subject of a then effective Registration Statement that is available for resales or other dispositions by such Holder.
If a registration pursuant to this Section 6(d) involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its
opinion, market factors require a limitation of the amount of securities to be underwritten (including Registrable Securities) because the amount of securities to be underwritten is likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or
distribution of equity securities of the Company offered in such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration: (i) first, equity securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account;
(ii) second, such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to
above, which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all holders of Registrable Securities based on the number of Registrable Securities each has requested to be so included; and (iii)
third, to the extent the amount of securities requested to be included in such registration can, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, the amount of securities held by any
other Person which have the right to be included in such registration.
If the Company at any time after the date hereof grants to any other holders of its equity securities any rights to request the Company to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of any equity securities of the Company on terms more favorable to such holders than the terms set forth in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed amended or supplemented to the extent
necessary to provide the Holders such more favorable rights and benefits.
(e) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Holders of 50.1% or more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (for
purposes of clarification, this includes any Registrable Securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of any Security); provided that no such amendment, action or omission that adversely affects, alters or changes the interests of any Holder in a
manner disproportionate to the other Holders shall be effective against such Holder without the prior written consent of such Holder. If a Registration Statement does not register all of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a waiver or amendment
done in compliance with the previous sentence, then the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Holder shall be reduced pro rata among all Holders and each Holder shall have the right to designate which of its Registrable
Securities shall be omitted from such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of a Holder or some Holders and that
does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given only by such Holder or Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided, however, that the provisions of
this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 6(e). No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification
of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.
(f) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be delivered as set
forth in the Purchase Agreement.
(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the
parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. The Company may not assign (except by merger) its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Holders of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. Each
Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under Section 5.7 of the Purchase Agreement.
(h) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, has entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the
provisions hereof. Except as set forth on Schedule 6(h), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person that have
not been satisfied in full.
(i) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered
one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by e-mail delivery (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other
transmission method, such signature shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if
such signature page were an original thereof.
(j) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be determined in
accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(k) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.
(l) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of
the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(m) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of the Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit
or affect any of the provisions hereof.
(n) Independent Nature of Holders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations
of any other Holder hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action
taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in
concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Holders are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not
assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or transactions. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any
other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement with respect to the obligations of the Company contained was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any
Holder, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Holder. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company and a
Holder, solely, and not between the Company and the Holders collectively and not between and among Holders.

Annex A
Plan of Distribution
Each Selling Shareholder (the “Selling Shareholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any
or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal Trading Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A
Selling Shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
|
|
●
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
privately negotiated transactions;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
settlement of short sales;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
|
The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the
Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in
excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
Annex A - 1
In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or
loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative
securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as
supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act
in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities
Act. Each Selling Shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling
Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without
regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or
(ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required
under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or
qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making
activities with respect to the Ordinary Shares for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Ordinary Shares by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available
to the Selling Shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Exhibit 4.3
COLLABORATION AND RIGHTS AGREEMENT
THIS COLLABORATION AND RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made as of July 15, 2024, by and between MediWound Ltd., an Israeli company (“MediWound”), and
Molnlycke Health Care AB, a Swedish corporation (“Mölnlycke”). Each of MediWound and Mölnlycke shall be referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.
WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, MediWound and Mölnlycke are parties to that certain Share Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the “PIPE SPA”), pursuant to which, at the Closing (as
defined therein), Mölnlycke will invest in MediWound an amount of US$15 million against the issuance and sale by MediWound to Mölnlycke of Ordinary Shares (as defined therein); and
WHEREAS, as a material inducement for each Party’s entering into the PIPE SPA and consummating the transactions contemplated thereby, the Parties agree to collaborate as set
forth in this Agreement;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Strategic Enhancement. It is the intention of the parties that MediWound shall be able to benefit from Mölnlycke’s comprehensive global expertise in advanced wound
care. Accordingly, if requested by MediWound, Mölnlycke shall provide MediWound with commercial insights, clinical and regulatory experience, and educational resources. Also, as part of the foregoing, MediWound will share and discuss with Mölnlycke
the draft protocol for MediWound’s Phase III clinical study of EscharEx®, including the SAP and site selection.
2. Representative Rights.
(a) Mölnlycke shall have the right to appoint and replace from time to time, but not more than once during each 12-month period, (i) one representative (the “R&D
Representative”), which shall initially be the Chief Medical Officer of Mölnlycke, to attend all meetings (including telephonic or videoconference meetings) of the Research & Development Committee of the Board (as defined below) (the “R&D
Committee”), in a non-voting, observer capacity, and (ii) up to two (2) representatives (each, an “Executive Representative” and together with the R&D Representative, the “Representatives” and, each individually, a “Representative”),
which shall initially be the Chief Executive Officer of Mölnlycke and the Executive Vice President, Wound Care of Mölnlycke, who shall be invited to attend quarterly meetings with the Chief Executive Officer of MediWound and the Chairman of the Board
(and if requested by Mölnlycke, other members of the Board of Directors of MediWound (the “Board”) will be invited to attend such meetings) to receive updates and share insights pertaining to matters of mutual interest to MediWound and
Mölnlycke. For each quarterly meeting, the Parties shall jointly prepare a meeting agenda which shall be distributed, along with any pertinent discussion materials reasonably in advance of each meeting. The agenda shall include proposed discussion
topics for the meeting, such as developments, clinical insights and updates on the Phase III study of EscharEx®, commercialization developments and high level financial results and other pertinent information related to MediWound, all as
reasonably requested by Mölnlycke and subject to Section 2(b) below.
(b) MediWound shall give the R&D Representative notice of such meetings together with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials, including any
proposed written consents, and exhibits and annexes to any such materials, that it delivers or makes available to the members of the R&D Committee in connection with such meeting, by the same means and at the same time as such are delivered or
made available by MediWound to the members of the R&D Committee (collectively, the “Meeting Materials”); provided, however, that (i) the identity of the Representatives shall at all times be reasonably acceptable to the
Board, (ii) each Representative shall agree in advance and in writing to hold in confidence all information so provided to or otherwise learned by the Representative in such capacity, to disclose to MediWound any personal interest or conflict of
interest in any matter of MediWound, without delay and not later than the R&D Committee meeting or, where applicable, the Board meeting at which such matter is first discussed, and to acknowledge that the Representative might be exposed to
material non-public information and therefore the Representative and Mölnlycke might be restricted from trading in MediWound’s shares, and (iii) MediWound reserves the right to withhold any information and to exclude any Representative from any
meeting or portion thereof (A) if, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Chairperson of the applicable R&D Committee or, where applicable, the Board meeting, as the case may be, or of MediWound’s Chief Executive Officer, such withholding
or exclusion is reasonably necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege (provided, however, that any such exclusion shall only apply to such portion of such material or meeting which would be required to preserve such privilege), to
protect proprietary information, trade secrets or highly confidential information, or to avoid an existing or potential conflict of interest or competitive harm (including, without limitation, in connection with an Acquisition (as defined in Section
4 below)), is or pertains to executive sessions, or for other similar reasons, or (B) under circumstances where such access would have been limited if the Representative were a member of the Board or the R&D Committee, as the case may be.
(c) The R&D Representative may participate fully in discussions of all matters discussed at the meetings (or any part thereof) of the R&D Committee to which the
R&D Representative is invited in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 2(b) above. In no event shall any Representative (i) subject to applicable law, be deemed to be a member of the Board or the R&D
Committee; or (ii) have the right to propose or offer any motions or resolutions to the Board or the R&D Committee, nor to participate in any executive sessions held within such meetings.
(d) Any appointment or replacement of a Representative shall be made by way of a written notice given by Mölnlycke to MediWound and shall become valid and effective upon
the day on which said written notice is received by MediWound and approved by the Board in accordance with Section 2(b)(i) above.
(e) Notwithstanding the confidentiality obligations described in Section 2(b)(ii), the Parties agree that the Representatives shall have the right to disclose
information to personnel or authorized representatives of Mölnlycke who have a need to know, and who are bound by nondisclosure obligations with respect to such information.
(f) The provisions of this Section 2 shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
3. Strategic Evaluation - EscharEx®.
(a) MediWound and Mölnlycke shall cooperate to analyze the global market conditions and to evaluate and possibly structure an arms’ length transaction for the grant by
MediWound to Mölnlycke of worldwide distribution rights for MediWound’s proprietary product candidate, EscharEx®, on customary terms. The provisions of this Section 3 shall expire and be of no further force and effect
immediately upon the earlier of September 30, 2025, or the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 3 are intended only to set a basis for evaluation and discussions of such
possible grant of distribution rights. Accordingly, nothing herein shall be deemed as a binding offer or agreement to enter into or consummate a business relationship of any kind, nor shall constitute or result in any legally binding agreement,
transaction, right or obligation (or any option or right for any of the foregoing) by or for either MediWound or Mölnlycke. Any legally binding agreement, transaction, right or obligation, if any, will require, among other things, the negotiation,
execution and delivery by MediWound and Mölnlycke of mutually agreed upon detailed definitive agreements, the review and approval thereof by each party’s respective Board of Directors, and the receipt of any necessary governmental and other
third-party consents and approvals.
4. Right of First Offer.
(a) MediWound Initiated Sale.
(i) If the Board determines to initiate a process that is intended to result in an Acquisition (a “MediWound Initiated Sale”), MediWound shall provide written
notice to Mölnlycke, no later than thirty (30) days prior to contacting (either directly or indirectly through its financial advisor or other agent or representative) third parties regarding potential participation in the MediWound Initiated Sale
(the “Sale Review Period”), and will specify the proposed sale process and the type of interest desired to be sold, and will allow Mölnlycke to participate in such MediWound Initiated Sale process. MediWound shall not enter into a definitive
agreement with any third party with regard to a MediWound Initiated Sale until the Sale Review Period has elapsed.
(ii) Regardless of whether or not Mölnlycke joins the process, MediWound shall have the right, but not the obligation, to solicit and pursue Acquisition proposals from
Mölnlycke or other third parties and, after expiration of the Sale Review Period, to enter into a definitive agreement with Mölnlycke or another third party with respect to any Acquisition.
(b) Third Party Acquisition Proposals.
(i) In the event MediWound receives from a third party (other than any Mölnlycke Group Member (as defined below)) an unsolicited Acquisition proposal that is deemed by the
Board as acceptable for further evaluation by MediWound (an “Unsolicited Proposal”), then MediWound shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) days after the receipt thereof by MediWound and the aforesaid determination by the Board)
advise Mölnlycke in writing of MediWound’s receipt of such Unsolicited Proposal and the type of proposed Acquisition underlying such Unsolicited Proposal without, however, disclosing the identity of the proposing third party nor of any of the terms or conditions thereof (the “Unsolicited Proposal Notice”), and will allow Mölnlycke to participate in such potential Acquisition process. During the thirty (30) days of receipt of an Unsolicited
Proposal Notice (the “Unsolicited Review Period”), MediWound shall not enter into a definitive agreement with any third party related to an Unsolicited Proposal.
(ii) Regardless of whether or not Mölnlycke joins the process, MediWound shall have the right, but not the obligation, to solicit and pursue Acquisition proposals from
Mölnlycke or other third parties and, after expiration of the Unsolicited Review Period, to enter into a definitive agreement with Mölnlycke or another third party with respect to any Acquisition.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) nothing herein shall be deemed to (A) impose on any Party any obligation to commence or continue negotiations, to
agree to any terms proposed in the context of such negotiations or otherwise to agree to, enter into or consummate any Acquisition, or (B) prohibit MediWound from conducting negotiations with other parties in parallel provided that the identity of
Mölnlycke shall not be disclosed to any other party; and (ii) MediWound shall be under no obligation to negotiate or consummate any Acquisition with Mölnlycke or any third party and may cease, pause, resume or terminate negotiations with Mölnlycke or
any third party at any time and from time to time for any reason or for no reason, either in parallel or subsequently to such solicitation of competing proposals.
(d) The provisions of this Section 4 shall not apply in connection with (i) an Unsolicited Proposal submitted to MediWound by Mölnlycke or any of its
subsidiaries or other Non-Subsidiary Affiliates (as defined below) (each, a “Mölnlycke Group Member”), or (ii) discussions between MediWound and any Mölnlycke Group Member with respect to a possible Acquisition not pursuant to a MediWound
Initiated Sale.
(e) The provisions of this Section 4 shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the earlier of (i) the later of July 18, 2026
and sixty (60) days following the receipt by MediWound of the EscharEx® Phase III interim assessment, or (ii) the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
5. Vote in Favor of the Acquisition and Related Matters.
(a) Subject to the procedures and obligations described in Section 4 above, if applicable, in the event that MediWound enters into a definitive agreement
with any third party with respect to an Acquisition (an “Acquisition Agreement”), then Mölnlycke agrees that, from and after the date of such agreement and expiration or termination thereof (the “Voting Period”), at any meeting of
MediWound’s shareholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, Mölnlycke will (i) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all shares of MediWound and (if applicable) other Equity Interests (as defined herein) held, beneficially or of
record, or controlled by Mölnlycke or by any and other party that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Mölnlycke (collectively, Mölnlycke’s “MediWound Shares”) to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating
a quorum; and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, (ii) vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, all of its MediWound Shares: (A) in favor of the approval and adoption of the Acquisition Agreement, the Acquisition and other
transactions contemplated thereby (collectively, the “Transactions”), and the consummation of the Transactions; (B) in favor of any other proposal reasonably necessary for the consummation of the Transactions; (C) in favor of any proposal to
adjourn or postpone any meeting of MediWound’s shareholders at which any of the foregoing matters are submitted for the consideration and vote of MediWound’s shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve any such matters
on the date on which the meeting is initially held, provided that, with respect to (A), (B) and (C) above, the Board has recommended that the shareholders of MediWound vote in favor of any such proposal; and
(D) against (x) any Acquisition Proposal or any other action, proposal, transaction or agreement made in opposition to or in competition with, or that would prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of, the Transactions, (y) any
action, proposal, transaction or agreement involving MediWound or any of its subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to result in a material breach of any covenant, representation or warranty of MediWound under the Acquisition Agreement or
that would cause the failure of any condition set forth in of the Acquisition Agreement, and (z) any amendment of MediWound’s Articles of Association or other governing charter documents or any other action, proposal, transaction or agreement
involving MediWound or any of its subsidiaries that would, in each case, in any material manner, impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify any provision of the Acquisition Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, or change the voting rights of
any shares of MediWound, provided that the Board has recommended that the shareholders of MediWound vote against any such proposal.
(b) As used herein, an “Acquisition” shall mean a merger or consolidation of MediWound with or into, or any other transaction of MediWound with, any person or
entity (except for any bona fide financing of MediWound such as a public offering, registered direct, debt financing or private placement) that would result in (i) such person or entity acquiring, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a
series of related transactions (A) all or substantially all of the assets of MediWound or (B) more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding shares of MediWound, and (ii) that would result in the shareholders of MediWound as of
immediately prior to such transaction holding immediately following such transaction, less than a majority, by voting power, of the share capital of (1) the surviving, acquiring or resulting company or (2) if the surviving, acquiring or resulting
company is a wholly owned subsidiary of another company immediately following such transaction, the parent company of such surviving, acquiring or resulting company.
(c) The provisions of this Section 5 shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
6. No Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, except for the obligations of MediWound to adhere to the procedures and obligations described in Section
3 or Section 4 above, nothing herein shall limit or restrict in any manner MediWound, in its sole discretion and for any reason or no reason, (i) to reject any proposal by Mölnlycke pursuant to Section 3 or
Section 4 above or otherwise, (ii) to independently pursue, negotiate, solicit, accept, plan, participate in or otherwise take advantage of any offer or proposal or business opportunities, regardless of whether the other party has
information related thereto or a competitive interest therein, or (iii) to pause, cease, abandon or terminate the MediWound Initiated Sale or any other process or contemplated transaction, at any time whether before or after receipt of a Mölnlycke
Proposal or Competing Proposal, as the case may be, and regardless of whether or not such Mölnlycke Proposal or Competing Proposal was acceptable to the Board and whether or not MediWound solicited competing proposals.
7. Shareholdings Exclusivity; Stand-Still.
(a) Other than in connection of an Acquisition, MediWound shall not sell or issue any shares, option, warrant or right to acquire, or any instrument convertible into or
exchangeable or exchangeable for, any share capital of MediWound (collectively “Equity Interests”), to any entity having a significant commercial business is in the field of wound-care (“Wound-Care Company”), except as part of a
conversion, exercise or exchange of any Equity Interests that are either (a) outstanding on the date of this Agreement (where or not held by a Wound-Care Entity) or (b) issued by MediWound at any time after the date of this Agreement to any person or
entity who is not, at the time of their original issuance by MediWound, a Wound-Care Company; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit any Wound-Care Company from acquiring any such Equity Interests from any third party, nor
require any shareholder of MediWound to sell or otherwise dispose any Equity Interests it holds now or at any time hereafter. The provisions of this Section 7(a) shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the earlier
of (i) July 18, 2026 or (ii) the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall Mölnlycke (either alone or through or together with any of its subsidiaries and any other party that
controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Mölnlycke (each such other party, a “Non-Subsidiary Affiliate”)), either directly or indirectly, pursuant to any voting or other agreement, arrangement or scheme with any party or
otherwise, hold or control in the aggregate more than 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of MediWound or of the voting power represented thereby (including, without limitation, through or as a result of any receipt or acquisition of any
Equity Interests whether from MediWound or from any third party, the exercise, exchange or conversion or adjustment of the exercise, exchange or conversion ratio of any Equity Interests, the entering into any voting or other agreements (other than a
shareholder support undertaking for an Acquisition approved by the Board), or otherwise), and any action or purported result to the contrary shall be null and void and shall not be recorded by MediWound or its transfer agent in their respective
MediWound records; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to imply that Mölnlycke controls any Non-Subsidiary Affiliate and, accordingly, Mölnlycke’s obligation in respect of its Non-Subsidiary Affiliates shall be to
use commercially reasonable efforts to have them comply with the above limitation, without such limited obligation on the part of Mölnlycke derogating, however, from the aforesaid null and void effect of any action or purported result to the contrary
and from the non-recording thereof by MediWound or its transfer agent in their respective MediWound records. The provisions of this Section 7(b) shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the termination or expiration
of this Agreement.
8. Preemptive Rights.
(a) Subsequent Offerings. Mölnlycke shall have the right to purchase the Preemptive Pro-Rata Share of Equity Securities that MediWound may, from time to time,
propose to sell and issue after the date of this Agreement in private offerings which are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other than the Equity Securities excluded by
Section 8(c) hereof, pursuant to the terms of this Section 8. As used herein, “Equity Securities” means: (i) any Ordinary Shares or other share capital of MediWound; (ii) any security convertible or exercisable or exchangeable,
with or without consideration, into or for any Ordinary Shares, or other class of share capital of MediWound; (iii) any security carrying any warrant or right to subscribe for or purchase shares of any class of share capital of MediWound; and (iv)
any warrant, right, option or other derivative security which provides the right to subscribe for or purchase any of clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) above.
(b) Notice of Issue. If MediWound proposes to issue any Equity Securities in private offerings which are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act, then MediWound shall give Mölnlycke written notice of its intentions, which notice shall describe the Equity Securities, the anticipated amount range of Equity Securities that MediWound proposes to issue, and the anticipated price range upon
which MediWound proposes to issue such Equity Securities and shall offer such Equity Securities to Mölnlycke pursuant to the terms of this Section 8 (the “Initial Notice”).
(c) Exercise of Preemptive Rights. Mölnlycke shall have the right to purchase its pro rata share of the Equity Securities being offered, based on the ratio (the “Preemptive
Pro-Rata Share”) of (i) the number shares of Equity Securities held by Mölnlycke to (ii) the total number of issued and outstanding Equity Securities of MediWound to maintain Mölnlycke’s percentage ownership in MediWound. Mölnlycke shall have
twenty‑one (21) days from its receipt of such Initial Notice to agree to purchase its Preemptive Pro-Rata Share (or any portion thereof) by giving written notice to MediWound and stating therein the quantity of Equity Securities to be purchased.
(d) Issuance of Equity Securities to Other Persons. If Mölnlycke does not elect to purchase pursuant to Section 8(c) above all of the Preemptive Pro-Rata Share of
Equity Securities offered, then MediWound shall have thirty (30) days thereafter to sell the Equity Securities with respect to which Mölnlycke’s rights were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms and conditions not more favorable to the
purchasers thereof than specified in the Initial Notice. If MediWound has not sold such Equity Securities within such thirty (30) day period, MediWound shall not thereafter issue or sell any of the Equity Securities offered in the Initial Notice,
without first offering such securities to Mölnlycke in the manner provided above.
(e) Excluded Securities. The preemptive rights established by this Section 8 shall not apply to any of the following Equity Securities: (i) Equity
Securities issued or issuable upon a share split, share dividend, or any subdivision of Equity Securities; (ii) Equity Securities issued or issuable to employees or directors of, or consultants to, MediWound or any of its affiliates, or pursuant to
an equity incentive plan approved by the Board; (iii) Equity Securities issued or issuable to commercial financing sources and equipment lessors pursuant to a debt financing, equipment leasing or real property leasing transaction approved by the
Board; and (iv) Equity Securities issued or issuable in connection with strategic or financing transactions involving MediWound and which have been approved by the Board provided the primary purpose of such issuance is not to raise equity capital.
(f) The provisions of this Section 8 shall expire and be of no further force and effect immediately upon the earlier of (i) July 18, 2026 or (ii) the termination
or expiration of this Agreement.
9. Public Announcement; Confidentiality.
(a) Mölnlycke, on behalf of itself and the Representatives, acknowledges that the Representatives might be exposed to material non-public information and therefore the
Representatives and Mölnlycke might be restricted from trading in MediWound’s shares, and further agrees that it shall not use any information obtained by it pursuant to its rights hereunder (“Confidential Information”) except in connection
with its investment in MediWound and any other business relationship with MediWound, and such use of the Confidential Information shall be limited to personnel or authorized representatives of Mölnlycke who have a need to know, and who are bound by
nondisclosure obligations with respect to, such information. Confidential Information shall not include any information that: (i) was known to Mölnlycke prior to its confidential disclosure by MediWound; (ii) is independently developed by Mölnlycke
without violation of the confidentiality provisions herein as evident in Mölnlycke’s written records; (iii) is or becomes generally known to the public through no wrongful act of Mölnlycke; or (iv) has been received by Mölnlycke from a third party
under no obligation of confidentiality to MediWound.
(b) Neither Party shall disclose any information concerning this Agreement except (i) in response to an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, a subpoena
issued by a government agency, or as required by applicable law or regulations including applicable securities laws and stock exchange regulations, (ii) as required by any due diligence or inquiry in connection with any current or future
contemplated investment, license, acquisition or other transaction (subject, however, to a confidentiality agreement), (iii) to such Party’s auditors or legal or tax advisors, or as necessary to enforce the terms of this Agreement.
(c) Promptly following the Closing, the Parties will issue a joint press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement, in substantially the form attached
hereto as Schedule 9(c) attached hereto. Neither Party shall issue any press release, make any public statement or advertise any information pertaining to this Agreement, or to the collaboration
hereunder, without the prior written approval of the other Party, except as required by applicable law. Without derogating from the foregoing, disclosure and filings (including filing of the Agreement itself if and to the extent deemed by a
Party to be) by a Party or any of such Party’s affiliates required under applicable law and regulations (including those of any stock exchange on which a Party’s or any affiliate of such Party’s shares are traded) shall not be subject to the written
consent of the other Party; provided, however, the disclosing Party (on behalf of itself or its affiliate, as the case may be) shall give the other Party sufficient
notice, to the extent practicable under law, of such required disclosure as to enable the non-disclosing Party time to comment on such disclosure.
(d) The confidentiality provisions set forth in this Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years after the termination of this Agreement. In no event shall either Party be liable for consequential, incidental or special (including multiple or punitive) damages arising out of any breach of this Section 9.
10. Effectiveness; Termination. This Agreement shall become effective contingent upon and only immediately following the consummation of the Closing (if occurs)
pursuant to the PIPE SPA and, accordingly, (a) shall automatically expire and become void and of no force and effect upon the termination or expiration of the PIPE SPA (if occurs), or (b) if the Closing is consummated, shall terminate and be of no
further force or effect (except for those terms that explicitly survive such termination) upon the earlier of (i) the date on which Mölnlycke no longer holds or owns shares of MediWound representing at least five percent (5%) of the issued and
outstanding shares of MediWound; or (b) the consummation of an Acquisition.
11. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to any conflict of law principles
that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of New York. Any dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New
York, Borough of Manhattan, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations contained herein may be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, by a Party without the prior written
consent of the other Party.
