On
May 19, 2026, Strawberry Fields REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) completed an offering of units solely within Israel, pursuant
to exemptions from registration contained in Regulation S (17 CFR Sections 230.901, et. seq.). The units consisted of par value NIS1,000
Bonds (Series C) and 16 Warrants (Series 1) and yielded gross proceeds of approximately $56 million. Neither the bonds nor the warrants

Offering Report filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.

may be issued after the date of this opinion upon the exercise of certain Series 1 Warrants (the “Warrants”) that were issued
in an offering outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S to investors in Israel (the “Warrant Offering”). The
offering and sale of the Warrant Shares are covered by the above-referenced Registration Statement, and all amendments thereto (the “Registration
Statement”), filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

expressed herein would be governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland, we do not express any opinion on
such matter. The opinions expressed herein are subject to the effect of any judicial decision which may permit the introduction of parol
evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of agreements.

matters expressly stated. We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion if any applicable law changes after the date hereof or if

opinion is being furnished to you for submission to the Commission as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the issuance
of the Warrant Shares (the “Current Report”). We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Current
Report and to the use of the name of our firm therein. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are within the category of persons

(The
“Company”)
Shelf
Offering Report
Pursuant
to the Company’s offering prospectus and Supplementary Prospectus, which is also the Company’s shelf prospectus dated August
5, 2024 (the “Prospectus”) and1 pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Regulations (Shelf Offering
of Securities), 5766-2005 (the “Shelf Offering Regulations”), the Company is hereby honored to publish a shelf offering
report (the “Shelf Offering Report”) for the issuance and listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. (the “Stock
Exchange”) of the Company’s Bonds (Series C) (the “Bonds (Series C)” or the “Bonds”)
and Series 1 Warrants of the Company (the “Series 1 Warrants” or the “Warrants”), as detailed below.
In
the Shelf Offering Report, terms will be given the meaning given to them in the Shelf Offering Prospectus, unless otherwise stated in
the Shelf Offering Report.
The
Company’s shares are listed for trading on the NYSE American Stock Exchange. On April 15, 2024, the Company published a registration
document for the trading of its shares on the Stock Exchange, in accordance with the provisions regarding dual listing under Chapter
E3 of the Securities Law, 5728-1968 (the “Dual Listing Rules” and the “Securities Law”, respectively)
and the regulations promulgated thereunder and as of April 21, 2024, the Company’s shares are also traded on the Stock Exchange
in Israel. In accordance with the Dual Listing Rules, the Company’s ongoing reports are according to the law in the United States
and in the English language and in accordance with the Dual Listing Rules.
The
Bonds (Series C) together with the Series 1 Warrants shall hereinafter also be referred to as: the “Offered Securities”.
1
Published on August 4, 2024 (reference: 2024-01-083038).
1
The
Company prepared the Shelf Offering Report according to the rules of the United States Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”)
for a registration document on Form S-3 (“Form S-3”) in addition to the details required by the Shelf Offering Regulations,
and the Shelf Offering Report (including the documents included therein by reference) that ostensibly adequately satisfies in all material
respects the form requirements relevant to the Form S-3 registration documents under the Securities Act, the rules and regulations of
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (the “U.S. Securities Commission”) in connection with this offering
of the Offered Securities, except for those parts of the Shelf Offering Report which are in the Hebrew language and also except for the
fact that the S-3 Form contained certain sections, exhibits and appendices that are not included in the Shelf Offering Report and are
of a technical nature and/or are not material regarding an offer of securities to the public in Israel.
The
Shelf Offering Report has not been submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Offered Securities offered pursuant
to the Shelf Offering Report shall not be registered under the Securities Act or securities laws of any state of the United States
or any other jurisdiction and shall not be offered or sold in the United States, or to the account or in favor of a U.S. Person as defined
in Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is noted that promptly following
the publication of the shelf offering report and as a condition to the listing for trading of the Series 1 Warrants, the Company will
act to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a Prospectus Supplement pursuant to which the shares to be issued upon the
exercise of the Series 1 Warrants will be registered under the Securities Act.
The
public offering according to the Shelf Offering Report, if made, will be made in Israel to residents of Israel and will not be made in
the United States and/or for any person located in the United States or for anyone who is a U.S Person, each according to its definition
in Regulation S, and will be made in accordance with an exemption from American securities laws. The Company provided the Stock Exchange
with the opinion of an American lawyer, according to which, subject to the assumptions, reservations and restrictions set forth in the
opinion, it is not required to register the Offered Securities under the Securities Act for the purpose of offering and selling the Offered
Securities in an offering in the manner described below, except with respect to the shares to be issued upon the exercise of the Series
1 Warrants as aforesaid.
2
Any
purchaser of the Offered Securities offered pursuant to the Shelf Offering Report shall be deemed to have presented, that he (or she)
resides in Israel and is also a resident of Israel, that he (or she) is not a U.S. person as defined in Regulation S, that he (or she)
is not acquiring the Offered Securities offered pursuant to the Shelf Offering Report for a person located in the United States, that
he (or she) did not reside in the United States at the time they submitted the application to purchase the Offered Securities offered
pursuant to this Shelf Offering Report and that he (or she) is not acquiring the Offered Securities offered with the intention of distributing
said Offered Securities.
The
distributors with whom the Company will enter into agreements, if any, for the distribution of the Offered Securities, including their
related companies and anyone acting on their behalf, shall be deemed to have presented, that they will offer the Offered Securities in
Israel to the residents of Israel only, and not to anyone who is a person located in the United States or a U.S Person, each as defined
in Regulation S, and that they are not engaged in any “directed selling efforts” as such term is defined in Clause 920(c)
of Regulation S. This offer is not part of a plan to evade registration requirements under US securities laws.
Pursuant
to Rule 904 of Regulation S, the Offered Securities offered under the Shelf Offering Report may be resold in or through the facilities
of the Stock Exchange (assuming that at the time of such resale, the Stock Exchange is a “designated offshore securities market”)
as defined in Section 902(b) of Rule S without imposing any holding period or other restriction under the Securities Act or the rules
promulgated thereunder, by any person other than the Company, the distributor, any affiliate company of theirs, or any person acting
on behalf of any of the foregoing, as long as (a) the sale is made as an “offshore transaction” as defined in Rule
902(h) of Regulation S, so that the offer will not be made to a person located in the United States and the transaction is carried out
in or through the facilities of the Stock Exchange, and neither the seller nor anyone acting on its behalf knows that the transaction
was planned in advance with a buyer in the United States; and (b) the seller, any of its affiliate companies, and anyone acting on their
behalf did not make any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in Rule 902(c) of Regulation S) in the United States.
No
person is authorized to take any action in the United States in connection with the offer or sale of the Offered Securities offered pursuant
to the Shelf Offering Report. The Company and the officers serving in the Company (and will serve in it in the future) irrevocably undertake,
inter alia, not to oppose the request of the trustee and/or the Offered Securities holders who will apply to the Israeli court
to apply Israeli law regarding a compromise and settlement and insolvency, insofar as filed; not to turn on their own initiative to a
court outside Israel in order to receive protection against a proceeding initiated by the trustee for the Offered Securities and/or by
the Offered Securities; not to object if the court in Israel wishes to apply Israeli law regarding compromise and settlement and insolvency;
and not to raise claims against the local jurisdiction of the court in Israel in connection with proceedings filed by the trustee for
Offered Securities and/or Offered Securities of the Company. In addition, the Company declares that to the best of its knowledge, there
is no impediment under the law applicable to it or by virtue of its obligations towards third parties, that such proceedings will take
place in Israel.

a notice of exercise received by the Clearing House of the Stock Exchange after the hour prescribed in the by-laws of the Clearing
House shall be deemed to have been received on the next trading day.
If,
on any payment date of the exercise price, it is found that the Exercise Rate has changed compared to the Base Rate, the exercise price

which shall be the highest price at which the applications for Units stating such price per Unit, together with applications stating
higher Unit Prices, will be sufficient to allocate all Units offered to the public (including the Classified Investors) under the offering
report.
The
allocation of the Units will be done as follows:
2.2.3.1. If
the total number of Units included in the applications received (including Units that applications
to purchase them were received from classified investors as stated in section 3 below)
is less than the total number of Units offered according to the offering report, all the
applications will be accepted in full, subject to the fulfillment of the requirements of
the Stock Exchange guidelines as 9.2 below. In such a case, the Uniform price will be
the minimum unit price. The remaining Units for which no applications were received, will
not be issued.
2.2.3.2. If
the total number of Units included in the applications received (including Units whose applications
to purchase will be received from classified investors as stated in section 3 below)
will be equal to or exceed the total number of Units offered to the public, all Units offered
to the public shall be issued as follows:
(1) Applications
that state a Unit Price lower than the Uniform Price shall not be accepted.
10
(2) Applications
that indicate a unit price higher than the Uniform Price - shall be accepted in full.
(3) Applications
(excluding applications received from Classified Investors) stating a price equal to the
Uniform Price shall be accepted on a pro rata basis, so that each Applicant shall receive
from the total Units offered that remain for allocation after acceptance of applications
stating a higher price than the Uniform Price (after deducting the acceptance of the applications
of the Classified Investors, who will order at the Uniform Price), a share equal to the ratio
between the number of Units ordered in the application in which the Uniform Price was stated
and the total number of Units included in all applications submitted to the Company in which
the Uniform Price was stated (after deducting the share of the Classified Investors as stated
in Section 3 below).
(4) The
allocation to the classified investors shall be as specified in section 3 below.
2.2.3.3. If
the allocation as stated in 2.2.3.2 above does not lead to the fulfillment of the minimum
dispersion requirements of the Bonds (Series C), as stated in section 9.2.2 below will be
canceled and the allocation of the Units will be done as follows:
(1) Applications
that state a Unit Price lower than the Uniform Price shall not be accepted.
(2) Applications
stating a Unit Price higher than the Uniform Price shall be accepted in full.
(3) Applications
(including applications submitted by Classified Investors) stating a Unit Price equal to
the Uniform Price shall be accepted on a pro rata basis, so that each Applicant shall receive
from the total Units offered to the public that remain for allocation after acceptance of
applications stating a Unit Price higher than the Uniform Price, a share equal to the ratio
between the number of Units ordered at the Uniform Price and the total number of Units for
which applications to purchase at the Uniform Price were submitted to the Company (including
Units in respect of which commitments of Classified Investors were received as stated in
Section 3 below).

that state a stating a Unit Price lower than the Uniform Price shall not be accepted.
(2) Applications
(including applications submitted by Classified Investors in accordance with their prior
commitment as stated in Section 3 below) stating the Uniform Price and/or a price higher
than it shall be accepted on a pro rata basis, so that each Applicant shall receive, out
of the total number of Units offered, a number equal to the ratio between the number of Units
ordered at the Uniform Price and/or at a price higher than it and the total number of applications
stating the Uniform Price and/or a price higher than it that were submitted to the Company
(including Units in respect of which commitments of Classified Investors were received).
2.2.3.5. If
the allocation as stated in Section 2.2.3.4 above does not result in compliance with the
minimum dispersion requirements of the Bonds, a reallocation shall be carried out for the
purpose of determining a new uniform Unit Price, which shall not be lower than the Minimum
Unit Price and which shall be the highest Unit Price at which the offered Units may be allocated
so as to satisfy the minimum dispersion requirements, provided that no Applicant shall be
allocated a number of Units higher than the number it ordered or at a Unit Price higher than
that specified in its application (the “New Uniform Price”).
If such a new Uniform Price is determined, the allocation shall be made in accordance with
Section 2.2.3.4 above, and wherever the “Uniform Price” appears, it shall be
deemed to read the “New Uniform Price.”

Terms of the Offered Series 1 Warrants
5.2.1. The
shares that will be issued upon the exercise of the Series 1 Warrants (the “Exercise
Shares”) shall rank pari passu with the existing shares in the Company’s capital
and shall entitle their holders to receive in full any dividends or bonus shares declared
(if any), and any other distribution declared or made by the Company (if any), the record
date for which is after the exercise date of the Series 1 Warrants. With respect to the rights
attached to the existing shares of common stock in the Company’s capital, see the Company’s
organizational documents published on April 15, 2024, and the registration statement published
on April 18, 2024 (reference nos. 2024-02-037714 and 2024-02-037597, respectively).
22
5.2.2. The
Series 1 Warrants and the shares that will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants shall
be registered in the Company’s securities register in the name of the nominee company.
5.2.3. The
Series 1 Warrants shall not be exercisable on the record date for a bonus share distribution,
dividend distribution, rights offering, share consolidation, share split or capital reduction
(each of the foregoing, an “Company Event”). It is further clarified that where
the ex-date of a Company Event falls before the record date of such Company Event, no conversion
shall be made on such “ex-date”.
5.2.4. Adjustments
From the date of listing for trading of the Series 1 Warrants until the last exercise date
of the Series 1 Warrants, the following provisions shall apply to Series 1 Warrants that
have not yet been exercised:
5.2.4.1. Adjustment
due to the distribution of bonus shares. If, during the period in which the right to exercise
the Series 1 Warrants exists, the Company distributes bonus shares, the rights of the holders
of the Series 1 Warrants shall be preserved, such that the number of Exercise Shares to which
a warrant holder will be entitled upon exercise shall increase or decrease by the number
of shares of the same class to which the warrant holder would have been entitled as bonus
shares had the warrant been exercised up to the trading day preceding the ex-date. The exercise
price of each warrant shall not change as a result of the addition of such shares. In the
event of an adjustment under this subsection, the applicant shall not be entitled to receive
a fraction of a whole share, and the provisions of Section 5.2.7.7 below shall apply. This
adjustment method is irrevocable. In the event of a bonus share distribution, the Company
shall issue an immediate report regarding the adjusted exercise ratio before trading opens
on the day the shares trade ex-bonus.
5.2.4.2. Adjustment
due to a rights offering. If, during the period in which the right to exercise the Series
1 Warrants exists, the Company offers to its shareholders, by way of rights issuance, rights
to purchase any securities, the number of shares resulting from the exercise of the unexercised
Series 1 Warrants up to such date shall be adjusted to reflect the rights benefit component,
as expressed in the ratio between the closing price of the share on the Stock Exchange on
the last trading day before the ex-date and the base price of the share on the ex-rights
date. This adjustment method is irrevocable. In the event of a rights offering, the Company
shall issue an immediate report regarding the adjusted exercise ratio before trading opens
on the day the shares trade ex-rights.
23
5.2.4.3. Adjustment
for dividend distribution. If, during the period in which the right to exercise the Series
1 Warrants exists, the Company declares a dividend, as defined in the Companies Law, 5759-1999,
to the holders of the Company’s shares of common stock, and the record date entitling
such holders to receive it (the “Dividend Record Date”) precedes the exercise
date of the Series 1 Warrants, then the exercise price shall be multiplied by the ratio between
the base price “ex-dividend” and the closing price of the share on the Stock
Exchange on the last trading day before the ex-dividend date. This adjustment method is irrevocable.
In the event of a dividend distribution, the Company shall issue an immediate report regarding
the adjusted exercise price before trading opens on the day the shares trade ex-dividend.
5.2.5. Various
provisions for protecting warrant holders during the exercise period
From the date of the Shelf Offering Report with respect to the Warrants and for so long as
all the Warrants have not been exercised or have not expired under the terms of the offering
report, as applicable, but in any event no later than the end of the exercise period, the
following provisions shall apply for the protection of warrant holders:
5.2.5.1. The
Company shall maintain a sufficient number of shares of common stock in its authorized capital
to secure the exercise right of the warrant holders and, if necessary, shall cause its authorized
capital to be increased.
5.2.5.2. If
the Company consolidates the shares of common stock in its issued capital or subdivides them,
the number of Exercise Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants, as applicable,
shall be reduced or increased, as the case may be, following such action. In such case, the
warrant holder shall not be entitled to receive a fraction of a whole share, and any resulting
fractional shares shall be treated as the Board of Directors of the Company deems appropriate.
24
5.2.5.3. The
Company shall refrain from distributing bonus shares if such distribution would result in
the issuance of Exercise Shares at a price below thirty (30) agorot or the par value of the
Exercise Shares, whichever is higher.
5.2.5.4. No
later than three (3) weeks and no earlier than four (4) weeks prior to the end of the exercise
period, the Company shall publish an immediate report regarding the expiration of the exercise
period of the Warrants. The immediate report shall also state that the exercise right will
cease after the end of the exercise period of the Warrants and that after such date the Warrants
shall be void and of no effect. In the event of an extension of the exercise period, which
shall be made sufficiently in advance, the Company shall publish an immediate report at the
beginning of the month in which the additional exercise period ends.
5.2.5.5. The
Company shall not adopt a resolution and shall not announce any dividend distribution or
bonus shares or rights offering for the purchase of securities where the record date for
entitlement thereto precedes the date of the resolution, and the record date shall be no
less than six (6) trading days after the resolution or announcement, as applicable.
5.2.5.6. In
the event of a resolution to effect a voluntary liquidation, the Company shall publish an
immediate report to that effect and shall also publish a notice in two (2) daily newspapers
circulated in Israel in Hebrew. Each warrant holder shall be entitled, within three (3) months
from the date of the notice, to notify the Company in writing that it wishes to be deemed
to have exercised its Warrant immediately before the resolution was adopted. In such case,
such warrant holder shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the amount that would
have been payable to it upon liquidation had it been a shareholder as a result of the exercise
of the Warrant held by it, prior to the resolution for liquidation, less the exercise price.
25
5.2.6. Notices
of exercise of the Warrants

registered owners of the Warrants shall be entitled during the exercise period to exercise their rights under the Warrants to purchase
the Exercise Shares and receive them by allocation in consideration for payment in cash of the exercise price, subject to the following
conditions:
5.2.6.1. Each
holder of a Warrant (the “Applicant”) who wishes to exercise its right to purchase
the Exercise Shares to which it is entitled shall submit, through the banks and other stock
exchange members if it is an unregistered holder, or directly (if it is registered in the

to be determined by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), together with the allocation
letters for the Warrants to which the request relates and the cash amount equal to the exercise
price for each Warrant whose exercise is requested. The number of shares to which a holder
of each Warrant will be entitled to purchase for the exercise price shall be adjusted in
accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2.4 above.
5.2.6.2. The
exercise date shall be deemed to be the date on which the Exercise Notice is delivered to
the Company, in the case of direct delivery, and, in the case of delivery of an Exercise
Notice through stock exchange members, the date on which the stock exchange clearing house
receives from the stock exchange member notice of the exercise of the Warrant, which meets
all of the conditions specified in the Shelf Offering Report (the “Exercise Date”).
5.2.6.3. The
Applicant shall sign, at any time requested by the Company, any additional document required
under any law and the Company’s bylaws in order to give effect to the allocation of
the Exercise Shares.
5.2.6.4. The
Board of Directors of the Company is authorized to empower any person it deems fit to sign
on behalf of and for the Applicant any document required for the allocation of the Exercise
Shares.
5.2.6.5. If
the Applicant has not fully complied with all of the conditions for exercise of the Warrant,
and such deficiency cannot be remedied by a person appointed by the Board of Directors as

funds attached to the Exercise Notice shall be returned to the Applicant within two (2) business
days from the time the Company determined that the notice was void.
26

Exercise Notice may not be revoked or amended. No right shall be granted to exercise partial
Warrants, but a warrant allocation letter may be split, transferred or waived as set forth

the last day of the exercise period for the Warrants falls on a day that is not a trading

holder of Warrants through banks and other stock exchange members (the “Authorized Persons”) shall submit an Exercise Notice
through them. The by-laws regarding the timetable for exercising the Warrants provide as follows:
5.2.7.1. An
Exercise Notice received by 12:00 noon at the offices of the stock exchange member through
which the Warrants are held shall be forwarded by the member to the stock exchange clearing

the foregoing, on the date of expiration of the exercise period, and if the date of expiration
of the exercise period is not a trading day, on the next trading day, the members of the
stock exchange clearing house must transfer the final exercise requests to the clearing house
by 12:00 noon. The exercise shall be carried out on that day. A clearing house member who
did not submit a request by the aforesaid time shall be deemed by the clearing house not
to have exercised its right to exercise, and the Warrants held through it shall expire.

the foregoing, it is hereby emphasized that the exercise of the Warrants shall be governed
by the by-laws of the stock exchange clearing house as they are on the actual exercise date.

registered owner of such allocation letter, together with the allocation letter whose split
is requested. All expenses associated with the split, including stamp duty and other mandatory
payments, if any, shall be borne by the applicant for the split.
28
5.2.9. Expiration

A
Warrant that is exercised shall expire as of the date of allocation of the Exercise Shares. A Warrant that is not exercised by the end

or the par value of the Exercise Shares, whichever is higher, all in accordance with and
subject to the Stock Exchange’s and the Authority’s guidelines as then in force.

accordance with the bylaws and the Stock Exchange guidelines, “split process”
means, for this purpose, a process in which the Company transfers to its shareholders shares
it holds in another company, or a process in which the Company transfers assets and liabilities
to a new company established for the purpose of the split and the shareholders in the new
company are also shareholders in the company transferring the assets and liabilities, provided

of such Warrant.

12.1. Our
Company and Recent Developments Company Overview
Strawberry
Fields REIT, Inc. is a Maryland corporation operating as a qualified real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Section
856 through 859 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with our taxable year
ending December 31, 2022. We believe that we have been organized and have operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in a manner
to qualify for taxation as a REIT. To assist us in complying with certain federal income tax requirements applicable to REITs, among
other purposes, our Charter imposes certain restrictions on ownership and transfer of our common stock including provisions, with certain
exceptions, that restrict any person from owning, or being deemed to own by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Code, more than
9.9%, in number of shares or value of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. See “Risk Factors” on Section
12.3 of this Shelf Offering Report.
We
operate through an umbrella partnership, commonly referred to as an UPREIT structure, in which substantially all of our properties and
assets are held through Strawberry Fields Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). We are the general partner of
the Operating Partnership. To maintain REIT status, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including requirements
related to the sources of our gross income and the composition of our assets, limitations on the concentration of ownership of our stock,
and minimum distribution requirements based on our taxable income.
We
are specializing in skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties across the United States. Our primary business
is the acquisition, ownership and triple-net leasing of skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties. As of
March 31, 2026, our portfolio consists of 133 income-producing properties leased to operate as 143 medical institutions in Arkansas,
Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas.
We
are a self-managed and self-administered real estate company that specializes in the acquisition, ownership and triple-net leasing of
skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties.
Our
revenue comes solely from monthly rent payments by tenants. As of March 31, 2026, we currently lease 143 facilities to tenants under
32 lease agreements, with an average remaining lease term of 7.1 years and annual rent escalators of 2.79%. Notably, 90.8% of properties
are held under a master lease with risk-mitigating features like cross-default provisions. As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate annualized
average base rent under the leases for our properties was approximately $142.9 million.
36
We
have experienced growth through acquisitions. Since 2020, we have acquired 72 properties with an aggregate purchase price of approximately
$439.8 million, achieving a 13.9% weighted average lease yield. This translates to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.4% in our
annualized base rent. We’ve also seen impressive growth in key financial metrics – projected Adjusted EBITDA (13.5% CAGR)
and projected Adjusted FFO (11.4% CAGR) – from 2021 to 2026.
Our
executive offices are located at 6101 Nimtz Parkway, South Bend, Indiana, 46628, and our telephone number is (574) 807-0800. While we
have (through a subsidiary) approximately 9 employees as of March 31, 2026, the core focus is on acquiring, owning, and triple-net leasing
of skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American Stock Exchange.
We maintain a website at www.strawberryfieldsreit.com. Information contained on, or accessible through our website is not incorporated
by reference into and does not constitute a part of this Shelf Offering Report or any other report or document we file with or furnish

12.3. Risk
Factors
Any
investment in our Securities involves risk. Before making an investment in our Securities, you should consider carefully the risks below
and the other information contained in this Shelf Offering Report and the documents incorporated by reference into this Shelf Offering
Report, including the risks discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Registration Statement on Form 8-K, filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2026, as well as any subsequent updates thereto and
other reports and documents we file with the ISA and/or the TASE after the date of this Shelf Offering Report, including any current
reports on Form 8-K we may file, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, and may be amended, supplemented or superseded from
time to time by other reports we file with the ISA in the future. If any of these risks were to occur, our business, financial condition
and operating results or our ability to pay interest, principal or redeem or repurchase our Series C Bonds could be harmed, which may
lower the trading price of our Securities. You may lose all or part of your investment. See also “Incorporation of Certain Information
by Reference” below and “Where You Can Find More Information.”
40
Risks
Related to Investing in the Securities Offered by this Shelf Offering Report
Our
Series C Bonds will be unsecured, and your investment in our Series C Bonds is subject to our credit risk.
Our
Series C Bonds will be unsubordinated unsecured general obligations of ours and will not, either directly or indirectly, be an obligation
of any third party. Our Series C Bonds will rank on par with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations, except as
such obligations may be preferred by operation of law. Any payment to be made on our Series C Bonds, including the return of the principal
amount at maturity or any redemption date, as applicable, depends on our ability to satisfy our obligations as they come due. As a result,
our actual and perceived creditworthiness may affect the market value of our Series C Bonds and, in the event we were to default on our
obligations, you may not receive the amounts owed to you under the terms of our Series C Bonds – $163.2 million of outstanding
unsecured indebtedness under our principal credit facility, approximately $254.1 million of secured mortgage indebtedness on our properties,
and approximately $334.8 million of other secured loans payable. A substantial portion of our existing indebtedness has scheduled maturity
dates prior to the maturity date of the Series C Bonds. Our level of debt could have important consequences to us, including the following:
● our
ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures,
debt repayment (including the Series C Bonds), acquisitions or other purposes may be impaired,
or such financing may not be available on favorable terms;
● we
may need to use a substantial portion of our cash from operations to make principal and interest
payments on our debt, reducing the funds that would otherwise be available for operations
and future business opportunities;
● our
debt level could make us more vulnerable to competitive pressures or a downturn in our business
or the economy generally than our competitors with less debt; and
● our
debt level may limit our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.
Our
ability to service our debt will depend upon, among other things, our financial and operating performance, which will be affected by
prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our results
of operations are not sufficient to service our current or future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing or
delaying our business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our
debt, or seeking additional equity capital or bankruptcy protection. We may not be able to effect any of these actions on satisfactory
terms, or at all.
41
We
have the ability to incur substantial additional debt, which may increase the risks associated with our substantial existing debt, including
our ability to service the Series C Bonds and other debt.
Our
credit agreements and other debt instruments, including the Deed of Trust that will govern the Series C Bonds, will permit us, subject
to compliance with certain covenants, to incur a substantial amount of additional indebtedness, including senior secured indebtedness.
As of March 31, 2026, and without giving effect to this offering, we have two series of traded bonds: Series A and Series B bonds. The
Company is authorized, subject to applicable terms and conditions, to issue additional bonds in each of these series by way of expansion
of the respective series. It should also be noted that Series A bonds are subject to an issuance cap in the deed of trust and that the
Series A Bonds are expected to be redeemed in September 2026. If we incur additional debt above the levels in effect upon the closing
of the offering, the risks associated with our substantial existing debt, including our ability to service our debt, could increase.
We
may not have sufficient cash from our operations to enable us to pay interest or principal on our Series C Bonds.
We
may have insufficient cash available to pay interest and principal on our Series C Bonds. Our ability to pay interest or principal on
our Series C Bonds depends in part upon the amount of cash we generate from and use in our operations, which may fluctuate significantly
based on, among other things:
● adverse
changes in financial conditions of buyers, sellers and tenants of properties;
● vacancies
or our inability to rent space on favorable terms, including possible market pressures to
offer tenants rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market
renewal options, and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-let space;
● increased
operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities, real estate taxes and state and
local taxes;
● civil
unrest, acts of war, terrorist attacks and natural disasters, which may result in uninsured
or underinsured losses;
42
● geopolitical
challenges and uncertainties),;
● decreases
in the underlying value of our real estate; and
● changing
market demographics.
Our
Series C Bonds will be unsecured obligations and will be effectively subordinated to our secured debt.
Our
Series C Bonds are unsecured and therefore will be effectively subordinated to our existing secured indebtedness and any secured financing
we may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing the financing. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation
or similar proceeding involving us, the assets that serve as collateral will be available to satisfy the obligations under any secured
financing before any payments are made on our Series C Bonds.
On
March 31, 2026, we had an aggregate of approximately $413.6 million of secured debt outstanding (excluding our subsidiary’s Series
C bonds of $78.3 million). We will continue to have the ability to incur additional secured debt, subject to limitations in our credit
facility and other indebtedness and the Deed of Trust relating to the Series C Bonds.
Restrictive
covenants in our credit facility, the Series C Bonds offered hereby, and our other indebtedness impose financial and other restrictions
on us, which may limit, among other things, our ability to borrow funds under our credit facility.
To
borrow funds under our existing credit facility, we must, among other things, meet specified financial covenants. For example, we are
prohibited under our existing credit facility from incurring total borrowings in an amount greater than 75% of our total assets, as defined
in the applicable agreements, and we must also ensure certain interest coverage, and interest and principal coverage ratios are met.
Total borrowings and total assets are terms defined in our credit facility and differ from those used in preparing our consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To the extent we are unable to satisfy the requirements in our credit facility,
we may be unable to borrow additional funds under the credit facility.
If
we are not in compliance with specified financial ratios or other requirements in our credit facility, the Series C Bonds or our other
indebtedness, we may be in breach, which could require us to repay outstanding amounts. Additionally, most of our debt instruments contain
cross-default provisions, which generally cause a default or event of default under each instrument upon a qualifying default or event
of default under any other debt instrument. If we are unable to repay outstanding indebtedness when due, holders of our secured debt
also have the right to proceed against the collateral granted to them that secures the indebtedness. If the indebtedness under the Series
C Bonds and our other debt agreements were to be accelerated, our assets may not be sufficient to repay in full that indebtedness and
our other indebtedness. If not cured or waived, such default could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and operating results.
43
Our
subsidiaries conduct a portion of our operations and own certain of our operating assets, and your right to receive payments on our Series
C Bonds is effectively subordinated to the rights of the creditors of our subsidiaries.
Our
subsidiaries conduct a portion of our operations and own certain of our operating assets. As a result, our ability to make required payments
on our Series C Bonds depends in part on the operations of our subsidiaries and our subsidiaries’ ability to distribute funds to
us. Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities, except to the extent described below, and have no obligation, contingent
or otherwise, to pay amounts due on our Series C Bonds or to make funds available for that purpose. Strawberry Fields Realty, L.P. is
the co-borrower of our Series C Bonds and such bonds will be guaranteed by Strawberry Fields REIT, LTD. For further information please
see Appendix 6.2 to the Deed of Trust.
The
rights of holders of our Series C Bonds will be structurally subordinated to the rights of our subsidiaries’ creditors. A default
by a subsidiary under its obligations could result in a block on distributions from the affected subsidiary to us. Our Series C Bonds
will be effectively junior to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, whether secured or unsecured. In the event of
a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our subsidiaries, creditors of such subsidiaries will generally be entitled to
payment of their claims from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us. As of March
31, 2026, our subsidiaries had $791.4 million of outstanding secured and unsecured debt obligations and assets with a net book value
of at least $788.0 million.
Our
Securities do not have an established trading market, which may negatively affect their market value and your ability to transfer or
sell your Securities.
Our
Securities are a new issuance of securities with no established trading market. We have received approval to list our Securities on the
TASE. An active trading market on the TASE for our Securities may not develop or, even if it develops, may not last, in which case the
trading price of our Securities could be adversely affected and your ability to transfer your Securities will be limited and you may
be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.
44
The
market price of the Securities may fluctuate.
If
an active trading market does develop on the TASE, our Securities may trade at prices lower than the offering price and/or the exercise
price of the Series 1 Warrants. The trading price of our Securities will depend on many factors, including:
● prevailing
interest rates;
● the
market for similar securities;
● general
economic and financial market conditions;
● the
credit rating assigned to our Series C Bonds;
● our
issuance of debt or preferred or common equity securities; and
● our
financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our
management will have discretion over the use of the proceeds to us from this offering and from the exercise of the Series 1 Warrants
(if exercised) and the intended use of proceeds of this offering may not increase the value of your investment.
Our
management will have discretion on the use of the net proceeds from this offering and from the exercise of the Series 1 Warrants (if
exercised), and you will be relying on their judgment regarding the application of these proceeds. We currently expect to use the net
proceeds from this offering for ongoing operations and general purposes, including the repayment of existing debts and the acquisition
of assets. There can be no assurance that management’s intended use of proceeds will increase the value of your investment. Please
read “Use of Proceeds” below.
Although
we expect to list the Securities on the TASE, there are restrictions on your ability to transfer or resell the Series C Bonds and the
Warrants Series 1 in the United States without registration under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws.
Although
the Company has shares of common stock listed on the NYSE American Exchange, the Series C Bonds and the Warrants Series 1are being offered
and sold in Israel pursuant to an exemption from registration under U.S. federal and applicable state securities laws. Therefore, you
may not resell the Series C Bonds and the Warrants Series 1in the United States or to U.S. persons.
45
A
downgrade, suspension or withdrawal of the rating assigned by a rating agency to the Series C Bonds could cause the liquidity or market
value of the Series C Bonds to decline significantly.
S&P
Global Ratings Maalot Ltd. (“Maalot”), an Israeli rating agency, assigned rating of +ilA for this Bond offering in
an amount of up to NIS 260.0 million. We cannot assure you that such rating will remain for any given period of time or that the rating
will not be revised, lowered or withdrawn entirely by Maalot (or any other rating agency) if, in such rating agency’s judgment,
future circumstances relating to the basis of the rating, such as adverse changes in our business, so warrant. If we issue other securities
with a rating, such ratings, if they are lower than market expectations or are subsequently lowered or withdrawn, or if ratings for such
other securities would imply a lower relative value for our Series C Bonds, could adversely affect the market for, or the market value
of, our Series C Bonds. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, including our Series C Bonds. Ratings
do not reflect market prices or suitability of a security for a particular investor and any rating of our Series C Bonds may not reflect
all risks related to us and our business or the structure or market value of our Series C Bonds.
It
may be difficult to obtain and enforce civil judgments against us and our directors, officers and experts.
We
are a Maryland corporation, and our principal executive offices are located in the United States. All of our assets are located in the
United States. As a result, even though the Deed of Trust is governed by Israeli law and any disputes thereunder are stipulated to be
adjudicated in Israeli courts, you may have difficulty enforcing in Israel judgments you may obtain in an Israeli court against us.
We
file reports with the SEC; see “Where You Can Find More Information” below. After the Offering, we will file with the ISA
and the TASE copies of our SEC reports, pursuant to the rules under the Israeli Securities Law for companies that are dual-listed on
the NYSE American Stock Exchange and the TASE.
Likewise,
the substantive laws regarding liability for our disclosures (including those in this Shelf Offering Report) will likely be governed
by U.S. law. The applicable reporting requirements and the substantive laws regarding liability for disclosures under U.S. law differ
from those under Israeli law and arguably afford less protection for purchasers of our securities.
46
U.S.
courts may refuse to hear a securities law claim of a non-U.S. investor who purchased our securities on the TASE. It also may be difficult
enforcing in the United States judgments you may obtain in Israeli courts against us or our directors, officers and experts in any action,
including actions based upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws.
Because
all our operations are conducted in the United States, the outcome of any debt restructuring proceedings in Israel is difficult to predict.
We
are a Maryland corporation, and we conduct all of our operations in the United States. Our principal executive offices are in the United
States, and all of our directors and officers reside in the United States. In addition, all of our assets and substantially all of the
assets of our directors, officers and experts are located in the United States. Consequently, in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency,
liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding involving us or any of our subsidiaries, bankruptcy laws of the United
States and not those of Israel are likely to apply. If we become subject to a debt restructuring in Israel, Israeli courts may seek to
assert jurisdiction over all of our assets, wherever located, including property situated in the United States. There can be no assurance,
however, that courts in the United States that have jurisdiction over us and our operations would recognize an Israeli court’s
jurisdiction.
12.4. Forward-Looking
Statements
This
Shelf Offering Report and the documents incorporated by reference in this Shelf Offering Report contain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the U.S. federal Securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding future
expectations, projections of our results of operations or financial condition. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions,
risks and uncertainties and are based on information currently available to our management. Therefore, our actual results and performance
may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements often, although not
always, include words or phrases such as the following: “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will
continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “intends,” “plans,” “projection”
and “outlook.” or comparable terms, or the negative use of those words, but the absence of these words does not necessarily
mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The
forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all
information currently available to us. Forward looking statements are not predictions of future events. These beliefs, assumptions and
expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. Some of these factors are included
in this Section 10 and others are described in the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2026 under the heading “Risk Factors”
and in our other filings with the SEC. These and other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially
from those included in any forward-looking statements we make. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is
made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Except
as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise.
47
Important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, among others:
● risks
and uncertainties related to the national, state and local economies, particularly the economies
of Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee and
Texas, and the real estate and healthcare industries in general;
● availability
and terms of capital and financing;
● the
impact of existing and future healthcare reform legislation on our tenants, borrowers and
guarantors;
● adverse
trends in the healthcare industry, including, but not limited to, changes relating to reimbursements
available to our tenants by government or private payors;
● competition
in long-term healthcare industry and shifts in the perception of various types of long-term
care facilities, including skilled nursing facilities;
● our
tenants’ ability to make rent payments;
● our
dependence upon key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed;
● availability
of appropriate acquisition opportunities and the failure to integrate successfully;
● ability
to source target-marketed deal flow;
● ability
to dispose of assets held for sale for the anticipated proceeds or on a timely basis, or
to deploy the proceeds therefrom on favorable terms;
48
● fluctuations
in mortgage and interest rates;
● changes
in the ratings of our debt securities;
● risks
and uncertainties associated with property ownership and development;
● the
potential need to fund improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow;
● potential
liability for uninsured losses and environmental liabilities;
● the
outcome of pending or future legal proceedings;
● changes
in tax laws and regulations affecting REITs;
● our
ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT; and
● the
effect of other factors affecting our business or the businesses of our operators that are
beyond our or their control, including natural disasters, other health crises or pandemics
and governmental action; particularly in the healthcare industry.
This
list of risks and uncertainties, however, is only a summary of some of the most important factors and is not intended to be exhaustive.
New risks and uncertainties may also emerge from time to time that could materially and adversely affect us.
12.5. Use
of Proceeds
The
net proceeds from the issuance, which will be received according to the Shelf Offering report (assuming the allocation of all the securities
offered to the public), will be used by the Company for ongoing operations and general purposes, including the repayment of existing
debts and the acquisition of assets.

12.9. Expenses
of the Offering
The

12.14. Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Maryland
General Corporate Law (MGCL) permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a provision eliminating the liability of its directors
and officers to the corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability resulting from actual receipt of an improper
benefit or profit in money, property or services or active and deliberate dishonesty that is established by a final judgment as being
material to the cause of action. Our charter contains such a provision that eliminates such liability to the maximum extent permitted
by Maryland law.
The
MGCL requires a Maryland corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which our charter does not), to indemnify a director or
officer who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason
of his or her service in that capacity. The MGCL permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers,
among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any
proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless
it is established that:
● The
act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the
proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty;
● The
director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or
services; or
● In
the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe
that the act or omission was unlawful.
Under
the MGCL, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify a director or officer for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the
corporation or for a judgment of liability on the basis that a personal benefit was improperly received. A court may order indemnification
if it determines that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, even though the director or officer
did not meet the prescribed standard of conduct or was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received. However,
indemnification for an adverse judgment in a suit by us or in the right of the corporation, or for a judgment of liability on the basis
that personal benefit was improperly received, is limited to expenses.
53
In
addition, the MGCL permits a corporation to advance reasonable expenses to a director or officer upon the corporation’s receipt
of:
● a
written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or
she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the corporation; and
● a
written undertaking by the director or officer or on the director’s or officer’s
behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the corporation if it is ultimately determined
that the director or officer did not meet the standard of conduct.
Our
charter obligates us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law in effect from time to time, to indemnify and, without requiring
a preliminary determination of the ultimate entitlement to indemnification, pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final
disposition of a proceeding to:
● any
present or former director or officer of ours who is made or threatened to be made a party
to, or witness in a proceeding by reason of his or her service in such capacity; and
● any
individual who, while a director or officer of ours and at our request, serves or has served
as a director, officer, trustee, member, manager, or partner of another corporation, real
estate investment trust, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or any other enterprise and who is made or threatened to be made a party to,
or witness in a proceeding by reason of his or her service in such capacity;
● in
either case, from and against any claim or liability to which such person may become subject
or which such person may incur by reason of his or her service in such capacity.
Our
charter also requires us to indemnify and advance expenses to any person who served a predecessor of ours in any of the capacities described
above and any employee or agent of ours or a predecessor of ours.
We
entered into customary indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that will require us, among other things,
to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status as directors or
officers to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law and provide for the advancement of expenses in connection therewith.
We
maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance which will indemnify our directors and officers against damages (including
legal fees and expenses), arising out of certain kinds of claims which might be made against them based on acts and things done (or not
done) by them while acting in their capacity as directors and officers.
54
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be provided to directors, officers or persons controlling us
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is therefore unenforceable.
12.15. Undertakings
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes, mutatis mutandis, to the extent applicable to an offering of securities solely in Israel
to residents of Israel and which has not been registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission:
(a) The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this registration statement:
i. To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
ii. To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration
statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration
Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
iii. To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement;
55
provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section
13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained
in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That,
for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
i. Each
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) (§ 230.424(b)(3) of this
chapter) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed
prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
ii. Each
prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) (§ 230.424(b)(2),
(b)(5), or (b)(7) of this chapter) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule
430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) (§ 230.415(a)(1)(i),
(vii), or (x) of this chapter) for the purpose of providing the information required by section
10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness
or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the
prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person
that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date.
56
(5) That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933
to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant
to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities
to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any
of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser
and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i. Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering
required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of this chapter);
ii. Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned
registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
iii. The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material
information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of
the undersigned registrant; and
iv. Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to
the purchaser.
(b) The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted
to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by
a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

of the Subsidiary Guarantee provided that the prior approval of the rating company is obtained confirming that the rating as of the
eve of the cancellation of the Subsidiary Guarantee will not be downgraded as a result thereof (the “Rating Company Approval”).

asset of theirs unless it is a sale or transfer of a “material asset of the Company” as defined in section 8.1 of the
Deed of Trust, and they are also not required to notify the Trustee of the creation of any lien on their assets except for a general

See
section 5.3(j) of the Deed
The
Company undertakes to act that insofar as it is under its control, the Bonds (Series C) will be rated by at least one rating company

the payments it undertook to pay the rating company and to provide the rating company with the reports and information required by
it in the engagement between the Company and the rating company. In this regard, inter alia, the failure to make the payments
that the Company undertook to pay the rating company and failure to provide the reports and information required by the rating company
as part of the engagement between the Company and the rating company, will be considered reasons and circumstances that are under
the control of the Company. The Company does not undertake not to replace the rating company or to terminate the engagement with
it during the period of the Bonds (Series C). In the event that the Company replaces the rating company even in the event that at
the time of the replacement it is not the only rating company that rates the Bonds (Series C) and/or terminates the work of the rating
company (in the case where it is not a single rating company), the Company undertakes to report this immediately and will notify
the Trustee and Bondholders and will state in its notice the reasons for the change in the rating company, and all this no later
than one trading day from the date of such replacement and/or from the date of the decision to terminate the work of the rating company,

aggregate principal amount of the Bonds (Series C), after the expansion, shall not exceed NIS 550 million principal amount.
Without
derogating from the generality of the foregoing, the Company reserves the right, subject to the provisions of any law, to issue at
any time and from time to time (whether by way of a private placement or pursuant to a prospectus and/or amendment to a prospectus,
whether pursuant to a shelf offering report or in any other manner), and without requiring the consent of the holders of the Bonds
(Series C) and/or the consent of the Trustee, as applicable, including to any related person (as defined in section 3.2 of the Deed),
additional series of bonds and/or additional securities, as the Company deems fit, all without prejudicing the repayment obligation
imposed on the Company under this Deed. In addition, if the Company issues an additional series of bonds or other debt securities,
and such additional series or securities are not secured by collateral (and so long as they remain unsecured), the rights of such
additional series or securities, as the case may be, in liquidation shall not rank senior to those of the Bonds (Series C) (for purposes
of section 4.2 of the Deed of Trust only: the “Additional Issuance”). Likewise, if the Company issues other bonds (of
another series) or other debt securities that are secured by collateral and/or liens (of any kind), then such other bonds or debt
securities, as applicable, shall rank senior in liquidation to the Bonds (Series C) only with respect to the collateral and/or liens
included in such other bonds. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this section shall prevent the Company from issuing additional
bonds of any kind secured by collateral and/or liens of any kind, at the Company’s sole discretion.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the additional issuance shall be subject to approval of the Stock Exchange (to the extent the securities in the additional
issuance will be traded on the Stock Exchange) and to the fulfillment of all the conditions set forth below: (a) the additional issuance
shall not adversely affect the rating of the Bonds (Series C), as then in effect (i.e., the rating on the eve of the additional issuance).
The rating company’s approval that the additional issuance will not adversely affect the rating of the Bonds (Series C) shall
be published by the Company prior to the completion of the additional issuance; (b) on the date of the additional issuance, based
on the Company’s latest financial statements published prior to the date of the additional issuance, and immediately after
giving effect to the additional issuance, the Company shall comply with all financial covenants set forth in section 6.5 of the Deed
of Trust; (d) no ground exists for immediate repayment as set forth in section 8.1 of the Deed; and (e) the Company complies with
all of its material undertakings to the holders of the Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the Deed. The Company shall deliver
to the Trustee a written confirmation from the Company, together with a calculation with respect to the condition set forth in section
4.2 of the Deed, as to the fulfillment of all the aforesaid conditions prior to completion of the additional issuance, all in a form
satisfactory to the Trustee.

Mechanism
for adjusting interest rates in certain cases
See
section 5.3 of the Deed of Trust
Adjustment
of the interest rate due to a change in the rating of the Bonds (Series C)
The
interest rate to be borne by the Bonds (Series C), shall be adjusted due to a change in the rating of the Bonds (Series C), as specified
in section 5.3 of the Deed of Trust:
If
the rating of the Bonds (Series C) by the rating company (in the case of a change in rating company, the Company will transfer to
the Trustee a comparison between the rating scale of the replaced rating company and the rating scale of the new rating company)
will be updated during any interest period, so that the rating determined for the Bonds (Series C) will be lower by one or more notch
(the “Reduced Rating”) from the base rating , and the annual interest rate that will be borne by the unpaid balance
of the principal of the Bonds (Series C), will increase by the additional interest rate, approximately 0.25% per year in respect
of any decline in the rating of the Bonds below the base rating, in accordance with the brackets determined in the Deed of Trust,
for the period starting from the date of publication of the Reduced Rating by the rating company and until whichever is earlier of
(a) full repayment of the balance of the principal) or the date the rating is increased in accordance with the provisions of section
5.3 (e) of the Deed of Trust. If the interest rate was previously raised for deviation from the financial covenants as stated in
section 5.4 of the Deed of Trust, then the increase in the interest rate for the reduction of such a rating will be limited in accordance
with the maximum interest rate increase limit (1.75% above the interest rate set in the tender).
In
the event that, after the rating is lowered in a manner that affected the interest rate to be borne by the Bonds (Series C) as stated
in section 5.3(a) of the Deed of Trust, the rating company will update the rating for the Bonds (Series C) upwards, so that the annual
interest rate borne by the principal will be reduced, at the time of the relevant payment of the interest, by the additional interest
rate in accordance with the brackets established as stated, for the period in which the Bonds (Series C) were rated at the highest
rating only (i.e., from the date the rating report regarding the increase in rating is published), so the interest rate borne by
the unpaid balance of the principal of the Bonds (Series C) after updating the rating upwards to a rating equal or higher than the
base rating, will be the interest rate set forth in the tender, as the Company will publish in an immediate report regarding the
results of the issuance, without any increase in the rating as stated in section 5.3 of the trust fund (and in any case, the interest
rate will not be lower than the interest rate established in the tender). In such a case, the Company shall act in accordance with
the provisions of subsections 5.3(a) to (c) of the Deed of Trust, mutatis mutandis arising from the high rating instead of
the reduced rating. For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that if the rating of the Bonds exceeds the base rating, this shall
not have any effect on the interest rate borne by the Bonds at that time.

Insofar
as the Bonds (Series C) shall cease to be rated at all for a reason dependent on the Company (for example, but not limited to, due
to non-compliance with the Company’s obligations towards the rating company, including due to failure to provide payments and/or
reports that the Company undertook towards the rating company) for a period exceeding 21 trading days, prior to their final repayment,
the cessation of the rating shall be considered as a maximum reduction of rating in such a way that the additional interest rate
shall amount to 1.5% (even if the interest rate was raised in accordance with paragraph 5.3(a) of the Deed of Trust prior to that
date), even if the interest rate was previously raised due to deviation from the financial covenants as stated in section 5.4 of
the Deed of Trust (but subject to the maximum interest rate increase limit), and the provisions of subsections (b) to (e) above shall
apply accordingly without derogating from the provisions of section 8.1.21 of the Deed of Trust. For the avoidance of doubt, it is
clarified that if the Bonds (Series C) cease to be rated, before their final repayment, for a reason that is not dependent on the
Company, this will not affect the interest rate as stated in subsection 5.3(a) of the Deed of Trust, and the provisions of section
5.3(f) of the Deed of Trust will not apply.
For
the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that: (1) a change in the rating horizon of the Bonds (Series C) will not result in a change
in the interest rate that the Bonds (Series C) will bear as stated in this section above; (2) if the Bonds (Series C) are rated by
more than one rating company and as long as they will be rated by more than one rating company as stated, subsection (f) above will
not apply unless in the event that all the rating companies together cease to rank the Bonds (Series C), and an examination of the
rating for the purpose of adjusting the interest rate for a change in the rating (if and to the extent that such a change is made)
will be done, at any time, according to the lower rating between them.
In
the event of a downgrade, the Company shall act in accordance with section 5.3 (b) of the Deed of Trust. To the extent that prior
to the date of the downgrade, there was an increase in the interest rate due to a deviation from one or more of the financial covenants
according to the mechanism specified in section 5.4 of the Deed of Trust, the change that will apply to the interest rate due to
the adjustment mechanism specified in section 5.3 of the Deed of Trust will be limited by the maximum interest rate increase limit.

section 5.4 of the Deed of Trust
Adjustment
of the interest rate as a result of non-compliance with financial covenants
The
interest rate to be borne by the Bonds (Series C), shall be adjusted for deviation from any of the financial covenants listed below,
as specified in section 5.4 of the Deed of Trust:
-
-
If
the ratio of financial debt to EBITDA (as defined in section 5.4 (1) of the Deed) exceeds 8.
-
If
the EBIDTA ratio to the Company’s total financing expenses payments (as defined in section 5.4(2) of the Deed) of the
Company (DSCR) shall be less than 1.35.
-
If
the consolidated equity of the Company (including minority rights) on the last day of each calendar quarter according to the Company’s
financial statements, shall be less than USD 30 million (this amount shall not be linked to any linkage basis).
Examination
of the Company’s compliance with any of the financial covenants will be carried out by the Company on the day of publication
of the financial statements and as long as the Bonds (Series C) are in circulation, in relation to the financial statements that
the Company was required to publish up to that date.
If
the Company deviates from one of the financial covenants listed in subsections a-c above according to its reviewed or audited financial
statements, the annual interest rate borne by the unpaid balance of the principal of the Bonds (Series C), at a rate of 0.5% (the
“Additional Interest Rate”), above the interest rate as it was at that time, prior to the change, in respect of the period
beginning from the date of deviation until whichever is earlier between the full repayment of the unpaid balance of the principal
of the Bonds (Series C) or the date of publication of the financial statements according to which the Company does not deviate from
the financial covenants, all subject to the maximum interest rate increase limit.
The
increase in the interest rate will be done only once in respect of any deviation from any of the financial covenants, insofar as
there is such a deviation, and the interest rate will not be raised again in the event that the deviation from the relevant financial
covenant exists (in this regard it should be clarified that insofar as the deviation from any of the financial covenants has been
corrected and thereafter there is an additional deviation, the aforementioned addition shall apply). It should be emphasized that
in the event that in respect of a decrease in the rating of the Bonds, the annual interest rate was raised in accordance with the
provisions of section 5.3 of the Deed of Trust, then in any case the Additional Interest Rate by virtue of that section together
with the Additional Interest Rate by virtue of section 5.4 of the Deed of Trust, due to deviation from the financial covenants, shall
not exceed the maximum interest rate increase limit.
For
the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that subject to the foregoing and the maximum increase in the interest rate, the additional
interest payments as a result of the downgrade of the rating as stated in section 5.2 of the Deed of Trust and/or as a result of
the failure of the Company to comply with any of the financial covenants as stated in this section 5.3 are cumulative. Therefore,
in the event that there is a decline in the rating, and in addition, the Company deviates from one or more financial covenants, the
holders of the Bonds (Series C) will be entitled to an increase in the interest rate as detailed above, provided that the annual
interest addition does not exceed the maximum interest rate increase limit.

Appendix
C - Taxation and Discount Rate
The
following description is general only and is not to be construed as tax and/or legal advice. The description does not constitute a substitute
for individual advice by experts, taking into account the special circumstances for each investor. Potential investors should consult
with their tax advisors to clarify the particular income or other tax implications to such investors, taking into account the unique
circumstances of the investor and of the proposed security.
1. In
making an investment decision, investors must rely on their own examination of the issuer
and the terms of the offering, including the merits and risks involved.Taxation according
to the laws of the United States
1.1 Taxation
under US federal law
This
section summarizes material tax implications relating to federal income tax and federal estate tax in the United States in relation to
the purchase, possession, sale or any other disposition of the bonds (Series C) (in this Section: the “Bonds”).
Unless
otherwise specified, this section is relevant only to the “Israeli holder” (as defined below) who holds the bonds as a capital
asset for US tax purposes (in general, an asset held for investment purposes).
This
description is based on the provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the “Code”), the legislative
history of the Code, existing regulations and proposed regulations published by the U.S. Treasury Department (collectively: “Treasury
Provisions”), legal interpretations and administrative guidelines published by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”),
which may apply retroactively, and which are subject to various interpretations. This description does not address all aspects of U.S.
federal income tax which may apply to investors in light of their special circumstances or to investors who are subject to special treatment
under U.S. federal income tax laws, nor does it address aspects of non-U.S. federal income tax such as gift tax as well as state or local
tax. In addition, this description is based on the provisions of the Convention between the United States and the Government of Israel
with respect to income taxation signed on November 20, 1975, and amended using protocols signed on May 30, 1980 and January 26, 1993,
and entered into force on January 1, 1995 (the “Convention”).
81
For
purposes of this description, an “Israeli holder” is any holder and owner of bonds (including an Israeli corporation and
an individual residing in Israel for tax purposes in Israel) who is a resident of Israel for the purposes of the Convention, and is entitled
to benefits by virtue of the Convention, and is the beneficial owner of the bonds, provided that such holder is not: (a) a citizen or
resident of the United States; (b) a citizen or former resident of the United States who is subject to the special rules under sections
877 or 877A of the Code; (c) a corporation, partnership or other entity created or incorporated under the laws of the United States or
one of the states within the United States; (d) a trust if (1) a U.S. court has the power to exercise primary supervision over its management
and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all significant decisions of the trust, or (2) the trust existed on August 20,
1996, in accordance with the relevant treasury regulations, it has in effect a valid choice to be considered a domestic trust, or - (e)
an estate, whose income is subject to income tax in the US, regardless of its source .
This
summary is general in nature and does not discuss any U.S. tax implications that may be relevant to Israeli holders in light of their
special circumstances or to certain types of investors who are subject to special tax treatment under US federal income tax laws, including
(but not limited to) government institutions, banks or financial institutions, insurance companies, non-US entities that can and will
be classified as partnerships or trusts for US federal income tax purposes, foreign controlled corporations, passive foreign investment
companies, securities or currency traders, tax-exempt investors, employees who receive the securities as part of their salary or during
their employment, and Israeli holders who hold (directly or indirectly) at least 10% of the voting power in the payer. In addition, this
summary does not address the U.S. tax implications of the beneficial owners of the bonds, except for the original purchasers of the bonds
who purchased the bonds in this offer under this Shelf Offering Report.
It
is recommended that Israeli holders consult with their tax advisors regarding the implications of Israeli income tax law and taxes in
respect of property, franchise, local, state and federal in the United States and other tax implications, including the applicability
of the provisions of the Convention, relating to the purchase, ownership and sale of the bonds.
1.a.1.1 Taxation
of Israeli Holders
Federal
income tax laws that apply to non-U.S. holders of bonds are complex, and this Shelf Offering Report will attempt to provide only a concise
summary of these laws. Future investors are advised to consult with their tax advisors to determine the impact of U.S. and non-U.S. federal
tax laws (including Israel), as well as any applicable income tax treaties, regarding investment in the bonds, and related reporting
requirements to the extent they exist.
82
1.a.1.2 Interest
income
In
general, the payer of interest income (including an original issuance discount (“OID”) attributable to bonds under
the relevant provisions of the Code( obtained by an Israeli holder in relation to the bonds, and which is not considered “effectively
connected” to the trade or business in the United States of the Israeli holder, must deduct tax at source in the United States
of a non-resident at a rate of 30% according to the internal law, or, as applicable, at a rate of 17.5% according to the Convention which
is collected by the company, the relevant tax withholding agent or their representatives if the Israeli holder is considered a resident
of Israel under the Convention, as well as other relevant requirements for receiving the Treaty benefits are met. However, with the exception
of section 1.1.5 and section 1.1.7 below, income from interest payments received or paid by an Israeli holder in connection
with the bonds, may comply with the “Portfolio Interest Exemption” stipulated in sections 871(h) and 881(c) of the Code,
and, accordingly, may be exempt from tax at source or US federal income tax of a non-resident – if such interest is not “effectively
connected” to the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the Israeli holder, provided that among other conditions:
(1) the interest is paid on an obligation that satisfies the criteria of registered form, as such term is defined in the Code and the
Regulations; (2) the interest is not characterized under the Code as contingent interest; (3) the Israeli holder does not directly or
constructively hold 10% or more of the total voting power, within the meaning of Section 871(h) of the Code, of all types of shares in
the company; (4) the Israeli holder is not a “controlled foreign corporation “ (as defined for US federal income tax purposes)
related to the company through the ownership of shares; (5) the Israeli holder is not a bank which is considered to be the recipient
of interest on the extension of credit made in accordance with a loan agreement signed during the ordinary course of his business, as
described in Section 881(c) (3) (A) of the Code; (6) the interest on the bonds is not considered to be “effectively connected”
to the trade or business of the Israeli holder within the United States; and (7) (a) the Israeli holder authorizes the company, the relevant
tax withholding agent or their representatives , subject to the penalties provided by law for perjury, that the Israeli holder is not
a U.S. citizen or resident and gives the name of such holder, his address and other information as may be required, on a Form W-8BEN
(in the case of an individual), Form W-8BEN-E (in the case of an entity), or other relevant US withholding tax forms to someone who is
not a resident, duly prepared, or an acceptable alternative form duly prepared and signed; or (b) in some cases, securities clearing
house , a bank or other financial institution that holds securities (including the bonds) on behalf of its clients (including the Israeli
holder) in the course of its ordinary business, confirms to the company, the relevant tax withholding agent or their representatives,
subject to the penalties provided by law for perjury, that he received a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E form, or other relevant forms confirming
withholding at source in the US for a non-resident, signed under penalty for perjury (as described above) from the beneficial owner (or
that he received from another financial institution a similar certificate, according to which he or another financial institution acting
on behalf of the owner, has received such form from the beneficial owner) as well as additional requirements regarding bonds and interest,
all in accordance with the provisions of the Code and the Regulations. The relevant non-resident US tax withholding form may need to
be updated from time to time.
Except
where otherwise provided by the Convention, an Israeli holder may be liable for federal income tax in the United States (as a rule on
the basis of net income) with respect to interest received on bonds, if such interest is effectively related to the trade or business
of the Israeli holder in the United States. In such a case, the Israeli holder classified as a US federal tax corporation may also be
subject to a US “branch profits” tax (which is generally imposed on a non-U.S. corporation with respect to a dividend equivalent
from the United States, in practice or considered, of income or profits attributable to trade or business in the United States) at a
rate of 30% (or, if certain requirements are met, a reduced rate of 12.5% under the Convention). In order to claim any benefits under
the Convention or to claim an exemption from withholding of tax at source in the United States of a non-resident, since the income generated
by the Israeli holder is effectively related to trade or business in the United States, the Israeli holder must timely provide the appropriate
form for deduction at source in the United States of a non-resident, which is properly filled out and signed under penalty of perjury,
to the Company, the relevant tax withholding agent or their representatives.
It
is anticipated that the bonds will be issued with no more than a de minimis amount (as set forth in the applicable Treasury Provisions)
of OID. If, however, a bond is issued for an amount less than the principal amount and the difference is more than a de minimis
amount, an Israeli holder will be required to include the difference in income as OID as it accrues in accordance with a constant-yield
method, based on compounding of interest before the receipt of cash attributable to this income. Such income would be subject to the
same withholding rules as interest income.
83
According
to the applicable Treasury regulations, the possibility of premium on the notes will not affect the amount or timing of interest income
recognized by the holder of the note, if the likelihood of the additional payment, as of the date of issue of the notes, is remote.
1.a.1.3 Sale,
exchange, repurchase, redemption, repayment or other disposition of the bonds
As
a rule, an Israeli holder will not be subject to US federal income tax in respect of any profit considered as capital gain for US federal
income tax purposes, from sale, exchange, repurchase, redemption, repayment, or other disposition of the bonds, unless: (1) the gain
is effectively connected to the trade or business of the Israeli holder in the United States, and if the Convention applies, such profit
is attributed to a permanent establishment of the Israeli holder in the United States; or (2) if the Israeli holder is an individual,
such Israeli holder who has been present in the United States for a total of 183 days or more in the tax year, in which the disposition
was made and certain additional conditions have been met, in such case, except as otherwise provided in the applicable tax convention,
the profit, which may be offset by certain capital losses from a U.S. source, will be subject to a fixed tax of 30%, even though the
holder is not a resident of the United States.
Capital
Gains
Gain
realized by Israeli Holders from the sale of options or shares issuable upon exercise of options generally will not be subject to U.S.
federal income tax unless one of the following conditions applies:
The
gain is effectively connected with the Israeli Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States and, if an applicable
treaty applies, such gain is attributable to a permanent establishment of the Israeli Holder in the United States;
The
Israeli Holder is a non-resident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and
whose tax home is in the United States. In such case, the individual will be subject to a 30% tax on his or her capital gains for such
taxable year; or
84
Our
shares and/or options to acquire our shares constitute a “United States real property interest” within the meaning of the
Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 (“FIRPTA”), as described below:
Our
shares and/or options with respect to our shares will not constitute a “United States real property interest” if we qualify
as a domestically controlled real estate investment trust. We will be treated as a domestically controlled real estate investment trust
if, at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% of the value of our shares is held, directly or indirectly, by non-U.S.
shareholders.
We
believe that, as of the date hereof, we qualify as a domestically controlled real estate investment trust, and therefore a sale of our
shares should not be subject to tax under FIRPTA. However, we cannot assure you that we are, or will continue to be, treated as a domestically
controlled real estate investment trust in the future.
Even
if we are not treated as a domestically controlled real estate investment trust at the time an Israeli Holder sells options and/or shares
issuable upon exercise of options, gain arising from such sale may nevertheless not be subject to tax under FIRPTA if:
The
class or series of shares sold is considered regularly traded, within the meaning of the applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations, on an
established securities market; and
The
Israeli Holder held 10% or less of the value of the class or series of shares sold (of the issued and outstanding shares) throughout
the five-year period ending on the date of sale or exchange.
If
the gain is subject to tax under FIRPTA, the Israeli Holder will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax on the entire gain in
the same manner as a U.S. resident shareholder subject to tax, including any applicable minimum tax under the Code. In addition, the
Israeli Holder may be required to withhold 15% of the amount realized and remit it to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
Warrants
As
a general matter, holders of warrants will not recognize gain or loss upon the exercise of a warrant.
A
holder’s tax basis in a share received upon exercise of a warrant will equal the sum of the holder’s adjusted tax basis in
the warrant plus the exercise price paid.
The
holder’s holding period for a share received upon exercise of a warrant will not include the period during which the warrant was
held by the holder.
85
Upon
the expiration of a warrant, the holder will recognize a capital loss equal to the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the warrant,
subject to the capital loss limitation rules.
A
sale of a warrant to a third party generally is a taxable transaction resulting in gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount
realized and the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the warrant.
Such
gain or loss will be capital gain or capital loss and will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the warrant was held for more
than one year. Upon a sale of a warrant to us, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service may assert that the holder must recognize ordinary income
on the sale. Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences of selling a warrant to us.
1.a.1.4 Federal
estate tax
If
the interest on the bonds meets the terms of the Portfolio Interest exemption described above, then the bonds held by a single Israeli
holder, who is not a US resident or citizen (as explicitly defined for US federal estate tax purposes), at the time of death will not
be included in that individual’s estate for US federal estate tax purposes (it should be noted that there is no signed estate tax
treaty between the US government and the State of Israel).
1.a.1.5
Information
reporting and backup withholdings
The
company or the relevant tax withholding agent are required to report any interest amount paid or earned on the bonds as well as the tax
amount, if any, deducted and/or withheld for such amounts paid or earned and, in certain cases of sale or transfer of shares, report
the amount of the consideration, on information returns, and copies of such information forms must be provided to any Israeli holder
and submitted to the IRS.
86
Copies
of such information forms may also be made available to the Israeli tax authorities in accordance with the provisions of the Convention
or other agreement signed by the United States with the Government of Israel. The company or the relevant tax-withholding agent is required
to make a “backup for withholding at source on a gross basis on all interest payments in respect of the bonds if certain requirements
are not met. Under the existing law, the rate of withholding at source for non-US persons in receipt of US source interest income is
30%. Withholding tax backup does not apply to payments in respect of the bonds to an Israeli holder if the relevant statements described
1.1.6 below or an applicable Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E have been duly provided by the Israeli holder, provided that the company has
no actual knowledge or reason to know that the Israeli holder is a US resident. Reporting of information, and, depending on the circumstances,
backup of withholding tax, shall apply to any payment of the proceeds from the sale, exchange, repurchase, redemption, repayment or other
disposition of the bonds within the United States or made through certain financial intermediaries related to the United States, unless
an Israeli holder approves, subject to penalties for perjury provided by law, that the Israeli holder is not a citizen or resident of
the United States and provides the name and address of the Israeli holder, as well as additional information as to the extent necessary,
in the Form W-8BEN (in the case of an individual) or Form W-8BEN-E (in the case of an entity), or other relevant withholding tax forms
to a non-resident, which have been prepared in accordance with applicable law or an acceptable alternative form, and the relevant withholding
agent has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the Israeli holder is not a U.S. citizen or resident.
1.a.1.6
Completion
of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E by bondholders
As
stated, 1.1.2 above, persons purchasing the bonds in this issuance under this Shelf Offering Report will require, as a condition
of purchase, to fill in the form W-8BEN (in case of an individual) or W-8BEN-E (in case of an entity) at the member of the stock exchange,
through which they purchase the bonds.
For
the avoidance of doubt, it should be noted that any holder of the bonds who does not provide a Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, filled in as
required, will be subject to a US withholding tax of a non-resident imposed by the company, the relevant tax withholding agent or their
representatives on all interest payments at the rate of 30% as described above.
1.a.1.7
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
The
Code’s Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) provisions generally impose a 30% gross withholding
tax obligation on interest from a U.S. source (including interest on bonds), paid to certain foreign entities, whether as beneficial
owners or Intermediaries, to the extent that the authorization, identification, withholding or other reporting requirements imposed by
FATCA are not met.
87
In
the event that withholding tax payments made to a “Foreign Financial Institution”, as the term is defined in the FATCA, subject
to a number of exceptions, withholding tax will be imposed under the FATCA, unless such Institution (i) collects and remits to the IRS
or other relevant tax authorities, certain information about such Institution’s “United States account holders” (as
specifically defined by the Code) by virtue of an agreement with the IRS or relevant foreign law enacted in connection with an intergovernmental
agreement; and (ii) establishes withholding obligations with respect to certain payments to its specific account holders and to certain
other persons. In the case of payments made to a foreign entity which is a non-financial foreign entity (as specifically defined by the
Code), subject to a number of exceptions, the withholding tax under the FATCA will generally be levied on payments from which the source
can be withheld unless such foreign entity has provided the withholding agent the following: (1) confirmation that it does not have substantial
US owners; or (2) certain information regarding its substantial US owners.
An
Israeli holder, or any non-U.S. intermediary in the chain of ownership, who has not complied with the requirements for certificates or
other requirements imposed under the FATCA or under an applicable intergovernmental agreement, will generally be subject to withholding
tax at the rate of 30% under the FATCA imposed by the Company, the applicable tax withholding agent or their representatives for withholding
tax payments. If withholding taxes are imposed under the FATCA in relation to interest payments made under the bonds, holders who may
be entitled to an exemption or reduction of federal withholding tax in the United States for such interest or consideration will be required
to apply for an IRS credit or reimbursement in order to receive the exemption or reduction benefit, if any. No additional amounts shall
be required on account of the withholding tax obligation imposed on payments in respect of the bonds as a result of the failure of an
Israeli holder to comply with the bonds, or any non-U.S. intermediary through which such holder is the owner, directly or indirectly,
of the bonds, of the requirements under the FATCA. Holders or Future holders of the bonds may be required to provide additional information
in order to allow the relevant tax withholding agent to determine whether a tax withholding is required.
88
THE
TAX AND OTHER MATTERS DESCRIBED IN THIS SUPPLEMENT DO NOT CONSTITUTE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED AS, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO PROSPECTIVE
INVESTORS. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT LEGAL AND TAX ADVISERS IN THE COUNTRIES OF THEIR CITIZENSHIP, RESIDENCE, AND DOMICILE
TO DETERMINE THE POSSIBLE TAX OR OTHER CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, HOLDING, AND WITHDRAWING INTERESTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
JURISDICTIONS.
2. Taxation

It
should be clarified that the description below relates to the manner of taxation of Israeli resident investors. Therefore, it is proposed

recent years, a number of amendments have been enacted that materially amend the Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 5721-1961 (the “Ordinance”),
relating to the taxation of securities traded on the Stock Exchange.
In
addition, from the date of this Shelf Offering Report, further legislative changes may be made to the Company’s tax regime, the
securities and the investors in such securities, beyond the changes made to date in the provisions. Naturally, it is not possible to
predict the content and effect of such changes.
On
July 25, 2005, the Knesset approved the amendment to the Income Tax Ordinance (Amendment No. 147), 5765-2005 (the “Amendment”).
The Amendment materially changed the provisions of the Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 5721-1961 (the “Ordinance”),
relating to the taxation of securities traded on the Stock Exchange.
In
addition, on December 29, 2008, the Knesset approved Amendment 169 to the Ordinance, which was published in the Official Gazette on December
31, 2008 (and came into effect on January 1, 2009), and brought about additional changes with respect to the taxation of securities.
As
of the date of publication of this Shelf Offering Report, not all of the new regulations expected to be published following the above
amendments have yet been published. In addition, as of the date of publication of this prospectus, there is no established practice regarding
some of the provisions of the said amendment and there is no case law interpreting some of the tax provisions in this amendment.
On
December 6, 2011, the Law for Changing the Tax Burden (Legislative Amendments), 5772-2011, was published in the Official Gazette, adopting
most of the tax recommendations of the committee for social-economic change headed by Professor Trajtenberg (the “Law for Changing
the Tax Burden”). Most of the changes in the law came into effect as of January 1, 2012.
Among
other things, the amendment increased the tax rates on income received by individuals from capital gains, interest and dividends, from
20% to 25%, and, with respect to a substantial shareholder8, on capital gains and dividends from 25% to 30%.
8
An individual holding, directly or indirectly, alone or together with another (as such term is defined in section 88 of the Ordinance),
10% or more of one or more of any of the means of control (as such term is defined in section 88 of the Ordinance) in the company, at
the time of the sale of the security or at any time during the 12 months preceding such sale (the “Substantial Shareholder”).
90
On
August 13, 2012, the Law for Reducing the Deficit and Changing the Tax Burden (Legislative Amendments), 5772-2012, was published in the
Official Gazette, which included Amendment No. 195 to the Ordinance (hereinafter: “Amendment 195”). Pursuant to Amendment
195, section 121B was added to the Ordinance, which provides that an individual shall be liable, as of January 1, 2013, to an additional
tax on the portion of his taxable income exceeding the amount referred to in the section (the “Surtax”), which is
updated annually in accordance with the rate of increase in the consumer price index (the “Threshold”).
This
section was updated on December 29, 2016 when the Economic Efficiency Law (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Goals for Fiscal
Years 2017 and 2018), 5777-2016, was published in the Official Gazette (the “Economic Efficiency Law”). The updated
section 121B provides that an individual whose taxable income in tax year 2025 exceeded NIS 721,560 shall be liable to additional tax
on the portion of his taxable income exceeding such amount at an additional rate of 3% above the foregoing. Taxable income includes all
types of income, including capital gains and real estate appreciation gains (a sale of rights in real estate in a residential apartment
will be included only if the sale value exceeds NIS 5,385,285 (for 2026) and the sale is not exempt from tax under any law), excluding
an inflationary amount as defined in section 88 of the Ordinance and an inflationary amount as defined in section 47 of the Real Estate
Taxation Law.
In
addition, under the Economic Efficiency Law, the corporate tax rate set forth in section 126(a) of the Ordinance was reduced, so that
as of January 1, 2018 it is 23%. In addition, under that law, the tax brackets for individuals were changed and the highest marginal
tax rate was reduced to 47% as of 2017 and thereafter.
As
part of the government’s measures to make adjustments in order to meet the fiscal frameworks for 2025 through 2027, on December
26, and in Amendment 276 to the Ordinance, the Economic Efficiency Law (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Goals for 2025) (Taxation
of Undistributed Profits), 5784-2024, was published (the “Economic Efficiency Law” and also “Amendment 276 to the Ordinance”).
The amendment provides that an additional surtax will be imposed on the portion of taxable income from capital sources (the “Additional
Surtax on Income from Capital Sources”) at a rate of 2% on capital income, excluding income from personal exertion as stated in
sections 2(1) and 2(2) of the Ordinance, on amounts exceeding NIS 721,560 (for 2025-2027, such amount will be adjusted from 2028 in accordance
with the increase in the consumer price index at the end of 2027). It was also provided under the Economic Efficiency Law that as of
2025, the tax rate applicable to passive income will increase. As a general rule, the above amounts are correct for tax year 2025 and
are adjusted annually according to the rate of increase in the consumer price index, except for the years 2025 through 2027 as stated
in Amendment 276 (the “Additional Surtax”, or “Additional Surtax on Capital Sources”, as applicable).
91
On
August 5, 2013, the Law for Changing National Priorities (Legislative Amendments for Achieving Budget Goals for 2013 and 2014), 5773-2013,
was published, which included amendments in many and varied areas of taxation, and pursuant to which, among other things, the tax exemption
provisions for foreign residents on capital gains from the sale of shares of an Israeli resident company were narrowed, such that the
exemption will not apply to the sale of a bond of an Israeli resident company where, on the date of acquisition and in the two years
preceding the sale, the principal value of the assets, directly or indirectly, derived from rights in real estate or rights in a real
estate association, including any other right in real estate, right to exploit natural resources in Israel, right to use real estate
or any asset attached to real estate in Israel and/or right to enjoy the fruits of real estate in Israel, all in accordance with section
97 of the Ordinance.
It
is clarified that the following refers to the manner of taxation of Israeli resident investors. It should be noted that with respect
to an “individual who became an Israeli resident for the first time”, “returning resident” and “veteran
returning resident”, as defined in section 14 of the Ordinance, different tax implications may apply from those described below,
and such residents are advised to seek specific advice in order to examine their eligibility for tax benefits in Israel. It should also
be noted that with respect to investors who will be deemed “controlling shareholders” or “substantial shareholders”,
as defined in the Ordinance, additional tax consequences may apply beyond those described below.
In
addition, the discussion below regarding the taxation of a foreign resident company is subject to the case where Israeli residents are
controlling shareholders therein, if the beneficiaries or those entitled to 25% or more of the income or profits of the foreign resident,
directly or indirectly, pursuant to the provisions of section 68A of the Ordinance.
As
is customary when making decisions on financial investments, the tax implications related to investing in the offered bonds should be
considered.
The
provisions included in the offering report regarding the taxation of bonds are not intended to constitute an authoritative interpretation
of the cited legal provisions in the offering report, and do not replace professional advice, in light of the specific data and unique
circumstances of each investor.
92
Under
the law currently in effect, the tax arrangements described in summary below apply to the bonds offered pursuant to this offering report:
Capital
gain from the sale of securities
Pursuant
to section 91(b)(1) of the Ordinance, real capital gain9 from the sale of the redemption of bonds by an individual resident
of Israel, where the income from the sale of the bonds does not constitute income from a “business” or an “occupation”
and where no financing expenses were claimed as a deduction, shall be taxable at the individual’s marginal tax rate pursuant to
section 121 of the Ordinance, but at a rate not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%), and the capital gain shall be deemed to be the highest
level in the taxable income ladder.
Notwithstanding
the provisions of section 91(b)(1) with respect to the sale of securities by an individual who is a “substantial shareholder”
in a company - that is, a person who holds, directly or indirectly, alone or together with another10, at least 10% of one
or more of any type of means of control11 in the company (as defined in section 88 of the Ordinance) (a “Substantial
Shareholder”) - at the time of the sale of the securities or at any time during the 12 months preceding such sale, the tax rate
applicable to real capital gain in his hands shall not exceed thirty percent (30%).
The
tax rates described above apply to the real capital gain, from which the indexation component embedded in the gain is excluded. For this
purpose, it should be noted that, in accordance with the provisions of section 88 of the Ordinance, the index on the basis of which the
indexation component is calculated is the consumer price index, as defined in that section; however, a person who, as a foreign resident,
lawfully purchased the bond in foreign currency may request that the foreign currency exchange rate be treated as the index for this
purpose.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, pursuant to section 91(b)(3) of the Ordinance, capital gain from the sale of the offered bonds that are not linked to
the index12 (or that are not denominated in foreign currency or whose value is not linked to foreign currency), by an
individual resident of Israel, where the income from the sale of the bonds does not constitute income from a “business”
or an “occupation” and where no financing expenses were claimed as a deduction, shall be taxed at a rate not exceeding
15%, or 20% in the case of a “substantial shareholder” in a company - that is, a person who holds, directly or
indirectly, alone or together with another13, at least 10% of one or more of any type of means of control14 in
the company, at the time of the sale of the securities or at any time during the 12 months preceding such sale (hereinafter: a
“Substantial Shareholder”) - and the entire capital gain shall be deemed real capital gain.
9
As defined in section 88 of the Ordinance.
10
As defined in section 88 of the Ordinance.
11
As defined in section 88 of the Ordinance.
12
As defined in section 91 of the Ordinance.
13
As defined in section 88 of the Ordinance.
14
As defined in section 88 of the Ordinance.
93
In
addition, with respect to an individual who claimed real interest expenses and indexation differentials in respect of the bonds, the
capital gain from the sale of the bonds shall be taxed at a rate of 30%, until the issuance of provisions and conditions for the deduction
of real interest expenses pursuant to sections 101A(a)(9) and 101A(b) of the Ordinance. The reduced tax rate described above shall not
apply to an individual whose income from the sale of the bonds constitutes income from a “business” or an “occupation”
in accordance with section 2(1) of the Ordinance. In such case, the individual shall be taxed at the marginal tax rate pursuant to section
121 of the Ordinance (and up to 47% in 2025). In addition, an individual shall be subject to surtax at a rate of 3% and an additional
surtax at a rate of 2% in respect of income from capital sources, as defined above, on the amount of taxable income for 2025 exceeding
NIS 721,560.
A
body of persons shall be liable for tax on real capital gain from the sale of bonds at the corporate tax rate set forth in section 126(a)
of the Ordinance (23% in 2025 and thereafter).
An
exempt mutual fund shall be exempt from tax on capital gain from the sale of such securities, and provident funds and entities exempt
from tax under section 9(2) of the Ordinance shall also be exempt from tax on capital gains from the sale of such securities, provided
the conditions set forth in that section are met. The income of a taxable mutual fund from the sale of securities shall be subject to
the tax rate applicable to the income of an individual whose income does not constitute income from a “business” or an “occupation”,
unless expressly otherwise provided by law. If no special tax rate is prescribed for the income, the income shall be taxed at the maximum
rate set forth in section 121 of the Ordinance, as well as surtax and additional surtax on income from capital sources, if applicable.
Pursuant
to Regulations 2(a) and 3(d) of the Income Tax Regulations (Calculation of Capital Gain on the Sale of a Security Traded on a Stock Exchange,
Government Loan, State Security or Unit in a Mutual Fund), 2002 (the “Capital Gain Calculation Regulations”), upon the sale
of the Company’s shares originating from options that were converted into shares as aforesaid, the original price of the option
shall be deemed the original price of the shares (for purposes of calculating the capital gain on their sale), and the payment made (if
any) in consideration for their conversion into shares shall be deemed improvement expenses. In addition, the acquisition date of such
shares shall be deemed to be the acquisition date of the options.
94
Pursuant
to the provisions of Section 94B of the Ordinance, upon the sale of a share traded on a stock exchange by a seller who is a substantial
shareholder in the company at the time of sale or at any time during the 12 months preceding the sale, the amount of the real capital
gain arising from the sale shall be reduced by an amount equal to the seller’s proportionate share of the distributable profits
in the company whose shares are being sold, accumulated from January 1, 2006 or from the end of the tax year preceding the year of acquisition
of the share, whichever is later, through the end of the tax year preceding the year of sale, in accordance with the seller’s share
in the rights to profits of the company. That portion of the distributable profits, in accordance with the seller’s relative share
in the profits, shall be subject to the dividend tax rate under Section 125B or 126(b), as applicable.
Pursuant
to the provisions of Section 94C of the Ordinance, upon the sale of a share by a body of persons, the amount of capital loss arising
from the sale of the share shall be reduced by the amount of any dividend received in respect of the share during the 24 months preceding
the sale, but not in excess of the amount of the loss, excluding a dividend on which tax was paid (other than tax paid outside Israel)
at a rate of 15% or more (but not in excess of the amount of the loss).
With
respect to withholding tax at source from the real capital gain upon the sale of the offered securities, pursuant to the Income Tax Regulations
(Withholding from Proceeds, Payment or Capital Gain upon the Sale of a Security, upon the Sale of a Unit in a Mutual Fund or in a Futures
Transaction), 2002 (the “Capital Gain Withholding Regulations”), an obligor (as such term is defined in the Capital Gain
Withholding Regulations) paying consideration to a seller who is an individual upon the sale/redemption of the securities shall withhold,
through a stock exchange member, tax at the rate of 25% of the real capital gain, and in the case of a security not linked to the index15,
at the rate of 15% of the capital gain, where the seller is an individual. An obligor paying consideration to a seller that is a body
of persons upon the sale of securities shall withhold tax at the corporate tax rate prescribed in Section 126(a) of the Ordinance (23%
in 2025) from the real capital gain or from the payment, as applicable. The foregoing is subject to valid exemption certificates (or
certificates for a reduced withholding rate) from withholding tax at source issued by the Israel Tax Authority, and subject to the offsetting
of losses that the withholding agent is entitled to perform
Pursuant
to section 89(b)(2) of the Ordinance, a foreign resident (individual or body of persons) is liable for tax on capital gain that has accrued
or arisen in Israel. Accordingly, a foreign resident (individual or body of persons), as such term is defined in the Ordinance, shall
not be liable for tax in Israel upon the sale of bonds of a foreign-resident company that is neither controlled nor managed from Israel,
and that does not hold assets in Israel (directly or indirectly), provided that the capital gain is not attributable to a permanent establishment
of the foreign resident in Israel, since such sale will not generate capital gain that has arisen or accrued in Israel. In addition,
as a general rule, a foreign resident (individual or company), as such term is defined in the Ordinance, is exempt from tax on capital
gains from the sale of bonds traded on the stock exchange in Israel, provided that the capital gain is not attributable to its permanent
establishment in Israel (except for the sale of a share in a real estate investment trust, and under Amendment 186 to the Ordinance,
also short-term government securities and short-term bonds), and subject to the conditions and limitations of section 97(b2) of the Ordinance.
If the date of acquisition of the security was before the date of its registration for trading on the stock exchange and if it had been
sold before such registration, the foreign resident would not have been entitled to the exemption upon sale as detailed in section 97(b3)
of the Ordinance, and the portion of the capital gain that would have accrued had the security been sold before the date of its registration
for trading on the stock exchange shall be subject to tax (but not more than the capital gain realized at the time of sale, in accordance
with the conditions set forth in section 97(b2) of the Ordinance). The foregoing, for purposes of the exemption under section 97(b2)
of the Ordinance, shall not apply to a foreign-resident company if Israeli residents are controlling shareholders16 in it,
or if the beneficiaries or those entitled to 25% or more of the income or profits of the foreign-resident body of persons, directly or
indirectly, pursuant to section 68A of the Ordinance. If such exemption does not apply, the exemption provisions of a tax treaty (if
any) between Israel and the country of residence of the foreign resident may apply, subject to prior presentation of an appropriate certificate
from the Tax Authority.
15
As such term is defined in Section 91 of the Ordinance.
16
“Controlling shareholders” means shareholders holding, directly or indirectly, alone, together with another,
or together with another Israeli resident, more than 25% of one or more means of control.
95
For
the purposes of withholding tax on real capital gain from the sale of the offered bonds, in accordance with sections 164-170 of the Ordinance
and the Income Tax Regulations (Withholding from Consideration, Payment or Capital Gain on the Sale of a Security, Sale of a Unit in
a Mutual Fund or Futures Transaction), 5763-2002 (the “Capital Gain Withholding Regulations”), the obligor (as defined
in those regulations) paying consideration to an individual seller upon the sale of bonds that are not linked to the index shall withhold
tax at a rate of 15% from the capital gain, and at the corporate tax rate set forth in section 126(a) of the Ordinance from the real
capital gain where the seller is a body of persons. It should be noted that in the sale of an indexed security, tax shall be withheld
at a rate of twenty-five percent (25%) from the real capital gain where the seller is an individual, and at the corporate tax rate where
the seller is a body of persons, from the real capital gain. This is subject to the prior presentation of exemption certificates (or
a reduced withholding rate certificate) and subject to the offsetting of losses that the withholding agent is permitted to make. It should
be noted that if the full withholding tax is not withheld from the real capital gain at the time of sale, the provisions of section 91(d)
of the Ordinance and the regulations thereunder regarding reporting and payment of an advance by the seller in respect of such sale shall
apply, on July 31 and January 31 of each tax year, in respect of sales of bonds that occurred in the six months preceding the month in
which the reporting date falls.
The
provisions of the consideration withholding regulations shall not apply to an obligor that is a financial institution paying a foreign-resident
seller consideration or other payment in respect of an exempt capital gain, if the foreign-resident seller submitted to the financial
institution, within 14 days of opening the account and once every three years, if present in Israel, either personally or through his
representative, a declaration on Form 2402 as to his foreign-resident status and entitlement to the exemption.
In
addition, no withholding tax shall be deducted from provident funds, mutual funds and other entities exempt from withholding tax under
the law, as listed in the appendix to the Income Tax Regulations (Withholding from Interest, Dividends and Certain Profits), 5766-2005
(the “Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations”), following the presentation by them of the appropriate certificates
evidencing exemption from withholding tax issued by the Tax Authority. In addition, no withholding tax shall be deducted by a banking
corporation or stock exchange member from a foreign resident upon the fulfillment of certain conditions.
As
a general rule, if the offered securities are delisted from trading on the stock exchange, the withholding rate that will be deducted
upon their sale (after delisting) shall be 30% of the consideration, unless an approval from the assessing officer is presented directing
a different withholding rate (including an exemption from withholding tax).
Pursuant
to section 92 of the Ordinance, losses in the tax year originating from the sale of the offered bonds in that tax year and which, had
they been capital gains, would have been taxable in the hands of the recipient, shall be offset against real capital gains and real estate
appreciation gains arising from the sale of any asset whatsoever (as defined in section 88 of the Ordinance) in Israel or outside it
(except for the taxable inflationary amount, which shall be offset at a ratio of 1 to 3.5). Such capital loss may also be offset in the
tax year in which it arose against interest and dividend income paid in respect of the same security or in respect of other securities
in that same tax year, provided that the tax rate applicable to interest or dividend from such other security does not exceed the corporate
tax rate under section 126(a) of the Ordinance in the case of a company and does not exceed the tax rate set forth in sections 125B(1)
and 125C(b) of the Ordinance in the case of an individual. Loss offsetting shall be carried out by offsetting the capital loss against
capital gains or against income from interest or dividends, as aforesaid. Pursuant to section 92(a)(3) of the Ordinance, such capital
loss originating from the sale of an asset outside Israel shall first be offset against capital gains outside Israel. Investors whose
income from the sale of securities constitutes business income shall be subject to other offset rules.
It
should be noted that, following the Law for Changing the Tax Burden, the tax applicable to a dividend received by an individual who is
a substantial shareholder is 30%. Accordingly, the capital loss arising in the tax year from the sale of securities will not be deductible
against dividend or interest income from other securities in the hands of an individual classified as a substantial shareholder.
A
loss from the sale of bonds that cannot be offset, in whole or in part, in the relevant tax year, may be offset against real capital
gains and real estate appreciation gains only, as provided in section 92(b) of the Ordinance, in subsequent tax years, one after the
other, after the year in which the loss arose, provided that a tax return for the tax year in which the loss arose has been filed with
the assessing officer. Such capital loss originating from the sale of an asset outside Israel shall first be offset against capital gains
from the sale of an asset outside Israel.
96
With
respect to losses from traded securities that arose before 2006, there are additional restrictions on the manner of offsetting, as set
forth in the transitional provisions of section 92 of the Ordinance prior to Amendment 147. A real loss from securities, as defined in
section 6 of the Adjustments Law (as worded before its repeal in Amendment 147), which existed before January 1, 2006 and was not offset
before that date and could be carried forward pursuant to the provisions of section 6, may be offset only against gains from the sale
of securities traded on the stock exchange. If the seller was a financial institution when the loss arose, the loss shall be treated,
for purposes of section 28(b) of the Ordinance, as a carried-forward business loss.
Pursuant
to the Capital Gain Withholding Regulations, it has been determined that, for purposes of calculating capital gain for withholding tax
on the sale of securities and futures transactions, the obligor (as defined in those regulations) shall offset a capital loss generated
from the sale of securities and futures transactions in accordance with section 92 of the Ordinance, provided that all of the following
conditions are met: (1) the loss was generated from the sale of securities that were under the control of the obligor; and (2) the gain
was generated in the same tax year in which the loss was created, whether before or after the date on which the loss arose.
The
tax rate that will apply to interest income from bonds
Pursuant
to section 125C(c) of the Ordinance, an individual who is not a substantial shareholder in the paying company shall be subject to tax
at a rate of 15% on interest (including partial linkage differentials, as defined in section 3(h6) of the Ordinance) or discount fees,
if any, derived from a bond that is not linked to the index, or that is partially linked to the rate of increase in the index, in whole
or in part, or that is not linked to the index until maturity.
Pursuant
to section 125C(d) of the Ordinance, the reduced tax rate described above shall not apply if, inter alia, one of the following conditions
is met: (1) the interest is income from a “business” or an “occupation” under section 2(1) of the Ordinance or
is recorded in the individual’s books of account or is required to be so recorded; (2) the individual claimed a deduction for interest
expenses and linkage differentials in respect of the bonds on which the interest is paid; (3) the individual is a substantial shareholder,
as defined in section 88 of the Ordinance, in the company paying the interest; (4) the individual is an employee of the company paying
the interest or provides services to it or sells products to it or has other special relations with the company, unless it is proven
to the satisfaction of the assessing officer that the interest rate was determined in good faith and without being affected by such relationship
between the individual and the body of persons; (5) the interest was paid from a training fund before the periods specified in section
9(16a) or (16b) have elapsed; (6) any other condition set by the Minister of Finance with the approval of the Knesset Finance Committee
is met. In such cases, the individual shall be subject to tax on the interest or discount fees at the marginal tax rate pursuant to section
121 of the Ordinance. In addition, surtax at a rate of 3% shall apply to the portion of the individual’s taxable income exceeding
NIS 721,560 (in 2025).
97
The
tax rate applicable to interest income or discount fees of a body of persons resident in Israel that is not a body of persons to which
section 9(2) of the Ordinance applies in determining its income, except with respect to section 3(h) of the Ordinance regarding accrued
interest originating from bonds traded on the stock exchange, shall be the corporate tax rate pursuant to section 126(a) of the Ordinance.
An
exempt mutual fund shall be exempt from tax on interest received by it, and provident funds and entities exempt from tax under section
9(2) of the Ordinance shall also be exempt from tax on such interest income or discount fees, subject to the conditions and limitations
of section 9(2) of the Ordinance and subject to the provisions of section 3(h) of the Ordinance regarding interest or discount fees accrued
during the holding period by another holder. The income or gains of a taxable mutual fund from interest or discount fees shall be subject
to the tax rate applicable to the income of an individual whose income does not constitute income from a “business” or an
“occupation”, unless otherwise expressly provided. If no special tax rate is established for such income, the income shall
be subject to tax at the maximum rate set forth in section 121 of the Ordinance.
As
a general rule, a foreign resident (individual or body of persons) is liable for tax on interest income or discount fees that accrued
or were produced in Israel. A foreign resident shall not be liable for tax in Israel on interest income or discount fees whose source
is outside Israel. Interest income or discount fees shall be deemed income whose source is outside Israel when paid by a foreign resident.
To the Company’s understanding, the interest income and discount fees shall be deemed income that accrued or was produced outside
Israel, in accordance with the provisions of section 4A of the Ordinance. Accordingly, as a general rule, foreign resident investors
are not subject to tax in Israel in respect of their interest income or discount fees from the securities issued.
Pursuant
to Section 9(15D) of the Ordinance, interest, discount amounts or linkage differentials paid to a foreign resident in respect of a bond
traded on a stock exchange in Israel and issued by a body of persons resident in Israel are exempt from tax, provided that such income
is not attributable to the foreign resident’s permanent establishment in Israel. The exemption shall not apply in the following
cases: (a) the foreign resident is a substantial shareholder in the issuing body of persons; or (b) the foreign resident is a “relative”
as defined in paragraph (3) of the definition of “relative” in Section 88 of the Ordinance, of the issuing body of persons;
or (c) the foreign resident is an employee of, service provider to, or seller of products to the issuing body of persons, or has a special
relationship with it (unless it is proven that the rate of interest or discount was determined in good faith and was not affected by
the existence of such special relationship).
98
Pursuant
to sections 164 and 170 of the Ordinance and the Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations, the withholding tax rate applicable to
Israeli residents on interest (as defined in the Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations)17 paid on bonds traded on
the stock exchange that are not linked to the index, for an individual who is not a substantial shareholder in the company paying the
interest, shall be 15%. The withholding tax rate on such interest for an individual who is a substantial shareholder in the company paying
the interest, or an individual who works for the company paying the interest or provides services to it or sells products to it (including
a foreign resident who does not meet the exemption conditions set forth in section 9(15d) of the Ordinance), shall be in accordance with
the maximum marginal tax rate under section 121 of the Ordinance as detailed above. In the case of a body of persons, tax shall be withheld
in accordance with the corporate tax rate set forth in section 126(a) of the Ordinance.
Pursuant
to section 2(4) of the Ordinance and additional applicable laws, discounting fees in respect of a bond shall be treated as interest subject
to tax and withholding at source as aforesaid. The withholding tax in respect of discount fees shall be withheld at the principal repayment
dates.
The
Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations do not prescribe withholding tax at source upon payment to a person who is not considered
a “recipient”, as defined in the regulations, so that in relation to an entity defined as a “mutual fund”, pursuant
to section 88 of the Ordinance, provident funds and other entities listed in the appendix to the Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations,
no withholding tax shall be deducted at source in respect of the payment of interest.
The
foregoing is subject to and takes into account exemption certificates (or a reduced withholding rate) and subject to the offsetting of
losses that the withholding agent is permitted to make.
17
Interest - interest, non-exempt linkage differentials from tax under any law, including partial linkage differentials, as defined under
section 9(13) of the Ordinance, and discount fees.
99
It
is clarified that, in accordance with the directives of the Tax Authority dated December 27, 2010, as of January 1, 2011, the withholding
tax on interest (including discount fees) paid on bonds traded on the stock exchange, and its remittance to the Tax Authority, shall
be carried out by stock exchange members and not by the Company. The Company shall transfer to the stock exchange members (through the
stock exchange) the gross amount of the interest. The stock exchange members shall withhold tax at source from the interest payments
to be paid by the Company to the bondholders in accordance with the Interest and Dividend Withholding Regulations and shall remit it
to the Tax Authority. In the event that interest is paid to a substantial shareholder or to an individual working for a body of persons
paying the interest or to a person who provides services or sells products to a body of persons paying the interest, the Company shall
be responsible for completing the withholding tax on the interest payments up to the maximum tax rate, as prescribed in the Interest
and Dividend Withholding Regulations.
Interest
income in the hands of an Israeli resident (individual or company), whose source is the offered bonds, may be offset against a current
business loss from an Israeli source (which, had it been business income, would have been taxed under the provisions of the Ordinance),
subject to the provisions of section 28 of the Ordinance. In addition, subject to the conditions of section 29(2) of the Ordinance, interest
income may also be offset against a business loss from a foreign source, which, had it been profit, would have been taxable in Israel,
provided that a tax return was filed with the assessing officer for the tax year in which the loss arose, as stated in sections 131 and
132 of the Ordinance.
In
addition, subject to the conditions of section 29(1) of the Ordinance, interest income in the hands of an Israeli resident (individual
or company) derived from the offered bonds may be offset against a passive loss (current or carried forward) incurred by the Israeli
resident outside Israel, which, had it been profit, would have been taxable as passive income, provided that a tax return was filed with
the assessing officer for the tax year in which the loss arose, as stated in sections 131 and 132 of the Ordinance.
Under
Regulation 4 of the Income Tax Regulations (Calculation of Capital Gain on the Sale of a Security Traded on the Stock Exchange, State
Loan or Unit in a Mutual Fund), 5763-2002, it is provided that upon redemption of bonds traded on the stock exchange in which discount
fees are also paid, the redemption consideration shall be deemed to be the consideration plus the discount fees, if all of the following
conditions are met: (1) the capital gain on the sale of the bond is not exempt from tax; (2) on the redemption date, a capital loss exists;
and (3) the redemption is not by controlling shareholders or by a person who held the bond from the date it was allocated or issued,
all up to the amount of the capital loss. Discount fees deemed to be consideration under these provisions shall not be considered income
under section 2(4) of the Ordinance.
100
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the withholding tax rate applicable to a foreign resident (individual or body of persons, to the extent taxable as aforesaid)
may be reduced pursuant to a valid approval from the Tax Authority, subject to the provisions of any double taxation treaties to which
the State of Israel is a party (if any), and subject to the prior presentation of a certificate of exemption from withholding tax or
a certificate of reduced withholding tax rate from the Tax Authority in Israel, if granted.
Tax
Rate Applicable to Dividend Income in Respect of the Offered Options Converted into Shares
Pursuant
to Section 125B of the Ordinance, a dividend derived from the Company’s shares shall generally be subject to tax, in the hands
of Israeli resident individuals, at the rate of twenty-five percent (25%), except with respect to an individual who is a substantial
shareholder in the Company at the time of receipt of the dividend or at any time during the 12 months preceding such receipt, in which
case the applicable tax rate shall be thirty percent (30%). In addition to the foregoing, an individual’s income shall be subject
to surtax at the rate of 3% of taxable income for the 2025 tax year exceeding NIS 721,560 (as of 2025; this amount is updated annually
in accordance with increases in the Consumer Price Index).
In
addition, an individual whose taxable income from capital sources in 2025 exceeded NIS 721,560 shall be subject to an additional surtax
at the rate of 2% on the portion of such individual’s taxable income from capital sources exceeding the aforesaid amount.
As
a general rule, dividends received by Israeli resident companies shall, pursuant to Section 126(b) of the Ordinance, not be included
in their taxable income, provided that the dividend is derived from income produced or accrued in Israel and received directly or indirectly
from another body of persons subject to corporate tax, and provided further that income for which a special tax rate has been prescribed
shall also not be included.
A
foreign resident (individual or company) who is not a substantial shareholder shall be subject to tax at the rate of twenty-five percent
(25%). A foreign resident who is a substantial shareholder in the Company at the time of receipt of the dividend or at any time during
the 12 months preceding such receipt shall be subject to tax at the rate of thirty percent (30%).
101
In
addition to the foregoing, an individual’s income shall be subject to surtax at the rate of 3% of taxable income for the 2025 tax
year exceeding NIS 721,560 (as of 2025; this amount is updated annually in accordance with increases in the Consumer Price Index).
In
addition, an individual whose taxable income from capital sources in 2025 exceeded NIS 721,560 shall be subject to an additional surtax
at the rate of 2% on the portion of such individual’s taxable income from capital sources exceeding the aforesaid amount.
These
tax rates may be reduced pursuant to the provisions of an applicable double taxation treaty (if any) entered into between the State of
Israel and the country of residence of the foreign resident, and subject to the prior submission of a certificate of exemption from withholding
tax or a certificate providing for withholding tax at a reduced rate issued by the Israel Tax Authority.
A
dividend received by a taxable mutual fund shall be subject to tax in accordance with the tax rates applicable to an individual for whom
the income does not constitute a “business” or “profession,” unless expressly provided otherwise. Where no special
tax rate has been prescribed for such income, the income shall be taxed at the maximum tax rate set forth in Section 121 of the Ordinance.
An
exempt mutual fund, as well as provident funds and other entities exempt from tax pursuant to Section 9(2) of the Ordinance, shall be
exempt from tax in respect of such dividend, subject to the provisions of that section.
Pursuant
to the said Dividend and Interest Withholding Regulations, the rate of tax to be withheld at source on dividends paid to an Israeli resident
individual and to a foreign resident (individual or body of persons) in respect of the offered securities listed for trading on the stock
exchange and held through a nominee company is 25%. Withholding tax at source on dividends paid by an Israeli resident body of persons
whose shares are listed for trading on the stock exchange in respect of shares held through a nominee company shall be effected through
a financial institution.
With
respect to an individual or foreign resident who is a substantial shareholder and whose shares are neither registered in nor held through
the nominee company, withholding tax at source on such dividend income shall be at the rate of 30%.
With
respect to a foreign resident, the rate of withholding tax at source shall be subject to the provisions of any double taxation treaty
entered into between the country of residence of the company and the country of residence of such holder, and to obtaining approval from
the tax authority. Pursuant to the Dividend and Interest Withholding Regulations, where a dividend is paid to an Israeli resident (individual
or body of persons) for whom a limited tax rate has been prescribed by law, the tax shall be withheld at the prescribed rate.
102
No
tax shall be withheld at source from payments made to provident funds, mutual funds, and other entities exempt from withholding tax at
source under applicable law.
Foreign
Tax Credit
Against
the tax liability stated above, an Israeli resident (individual or company) shall be granted a credit in the amount of foreign tax withheld
abroad, if any, in respect of the said bonds, subject to the provisions of the relevant tax treaty (if any, and if none, no credit shall
be granted) and the conditions set forth in sections 199, 203 and 204 of the Ordinance, and subject to the presentation of appropriate
certificates.
The
amount of foreign tax withheld abroad, if any, in respect of the said bonds that exceeds the Israeli taxes applicable to an Israeli resident
(individual or company) in the relevant tax year, shall be credited against Israeli taxes applicable to foreign-source income from the
same source, subject to the conditions set forth in sections 199-210 of the Ordinance and subject to the credit limitation set forth
in section 204 of the Ordinance.
The
amount of foreign tax withheld abroad, if any, in respect of the said bonds that cannot be credited, in whole or in part, against the
Israeli taxes applicable to foreign-source income from the same source in such tax year and that meets the conditions referred to in
subsection B above, may be credited against the tax imposed in Israel on income produced outside Israel from the same source during the
following five years, one after the other, subject to the conditions set forth in section 205A of the Ordinance.
Issuance
of additional bonds as part of the expansion of the series
Since
the bonds (Series C) are issued at their nominal value, there will be no discount in the issuance by virtue of this Shelf Offering Report.
In
the event that the company issues additional bonds in the future, as part of the expansion of the series, at a discount rate different
from the discount rate for that series (including the absence of discount, if applicable), the company will, before expanding the series,
turn to the Tax Authority in order to receive its approval, that for the purpose of withholding tax on the discount fees for the bonds,
a uniform discount rate will be determined for the bonds according to the formula that weighs the various discount rates in that series,
if any (hereinafter in this section: “weighted discount rate”). In the event of obtaining such approval, the Company
shall calculate before the expansion of the series the weighted discount rate for all bonds in accordance with that approval, and before
the expansion of the series, the Company shall submit an immediate report, in which it shall notify the weighted discount rate for the
entire series, and tax shall be deducted on the redemption dates of the bonds from the said series according to the weighted discount
rate as stated and in accordance with the provisions of the law. In such a case, all of the other provisions of the law that pertain
to taxes on discount fees will apply. If such approval is not obtained from the Tax Authority, the Company shall submit an immediate
report prior to the expansion of the series, in which it shall notify of the non-receipt of such approval and that the uniform discount
rate shall be the highest discount rate created in respect of the series, and all the other provisions of the law relating to taxation
of discount fees shall apply. Members of the stock exchange will withhold tax at source at the time of redemption of the series, in accordance
with the rate reported as stated.
Therefore,
there may be cases in which withholding tax will be deducted in respect of discount fees at a higher rate than the discount fees determined
for those who held the bonds from the Series Cefore increasing the series (“excess discount fees”), whether or not
an approval from the Tax Authority has been received for determining a uniform discount rate for that series. A taxpayer who held the
bonds from the said Series Cefore expanding the series until the repayment of the bonds held by him, will be entitled to submit a report
to the Tax Authority and receive a tax refund in the amount of the tax deducted from the excess discount fees, to the extent that he
is entitled to a refund as stated by law.
Stock
Exchange members shall deduct at source from the interest payments paid by them to the bond holders the tax payments that must be withheld
at source, except for entities exempted from such withholding tax in accordance with the law. On the dates of repayment of the principal
of bonds, stock exchange members will deduct tax at source in respect of the discount fees, if any.
As
of the date of the Shelf Offering Report, the company has started the process of opening a deductions file at the Income Tax in Israel.
