C.Reasons for the Offer and Use of Proceeds Not applicable. D.Risk Factors Our business faces significant risks. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this annual report and in our other filings withthe United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the following risk factors which we face and which are faced by our industry.Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. In that event, the trading price ofour ordinary shares would likely decline and you might lose all or part of your investment. This report also contains forward-looking statements that involverisks and uncertainties. Our results could materially differ from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, as a result of certain important factorsincluding the risks described below and elsewhere in this report and our other SEC filings. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” onpage i. 2 Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry Product development is a lengthy and expensive process, with an uncertain outcome. We intend to develop and commercialize pipeline product candidates based on our patented proteolytic enzyme technology for marketingauthorization of NexoBrid in the U.S. and for new indications, such as for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds and treatment of connectivetissue and other indications. However, before obtaining regulatory approval for the sale of our pipeline product candidates in any jurisdiction, we mustconduct, at our own expense, clinical studies to demonstrate that the products are safe and effective. Preclinical and clinical testing is expensive, is difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. Afailure of one or more of our clinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of,preclinical testing and the clinical trial process. For example, on August 3, 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) put one of our Phase 2studies of NexoBrid on a clinical hold due to safety concerns in the study group, including four deaths and a higher incidence of pain and pyrexia comparedto the standard of care (“SOC”) group. Although the Data Safety Monitoring Board unanimously concluded that no causal relationship between these deathsand the NexoBrid treatment was established and provided a reasoning for the higher incidence of such adverse events, the FDA delayed the continuation ofthe development plan until we proposed to initiate an additional smaller Phase 2 study to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed corrective measures.We successfully completed this smaller Phase 2 study, allowing us to continue the development plan, but experienced a significant delay and higher costs asa result. Even if preclinical or clinical trials are successful, we still may be unable to commercialize the product, as success in preclinical trials, clinical trialsor previous clinical trials, does not ensure that later clinical trials will be successful. Similar or other events could delay or prevent our ability to complete necessary clinical trials for our pipeline product candidates, including: ·regulators may not authorize us to conduct a clinical trial within a country or at a prospective trial site or may change the design of a study; ·delays may occur in reaching agreement on acceptable clinical trial terms with regulatory authorities or prospective sites, or obtaininginstitutional review board approval; ·our preclinical tests or clinical trials may produce negative or inconclusive results, and we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conductadditional trials or to abandon strategic projects; ·the number of patients required for our clinical trials may be larger than we anticipate, enrollment in our clinical trials may be slower or moredifficult than we expect, or patients may not participate in necessary follow-up visits to obtain required data, any of which would result insignificant delays in our clinical testing process; ·our third-party contractors, such as a research institute, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations tous; ·we may be forced to suspend or terminate our clinical trials if the participants are being exposed, or are thought to be exposed, to unacceptablehealth risks or if any participant experiences an unexpected serious adverse event; ·regulators or institutional review boards may require that we hold, suspend or terminate clinical research for various reasons, includingnoncompliance with regulatory requirements; ·undetected or concealed fraudulent activity by a clinical researcher, if discovered, could preclude the submission of clinical data prepared bythat researcher, lead to the suspension or substantive scientific review of one or more of our marketing applications by regulatory agencies, andresult in the recall of any approved product distributed pursuant to data determined to be fraudulent; 3 ·the cost of our clinical trials may be greater than we anticipate; ·an audit of preclinical or clinical studies by regulatory authorities may reveal noncompliance with applicable protocols or regulations, whichcould lead to disqualification of the results and the need to perform additional studies; and ·delays may occur in obtaining our clinical materials. Moreover, we do not know whether preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin or be completed as planned or will need to be restructured.Significant delays could also shorten the patent protection period during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize our pipeline productcandidates or could allow our competitors to bring products to the market before we do, impairing our ability to commercialize our pipeline productcandidates. We may be unable to successfully obtain approval of NexoBrid for treatment of severe burns in the United States and other markets. In the short term, we rely on sales of NexoBrid in Europe for the treatment of severe burns for a significant portion of our total revenues. However,our continued growth depends, in large part, on our ability to develop and obtain marketing authorization for NexoBrid for treatment of severe burns inadditional markets, especially in the United States from the FDA. We recently announced top-line results from the Phase 3 pivotal study to support aBiologics License Application (“BLA”) submission to the FDA, according to which the study has met its primary and all secondary endpoints, and we planto submit the Biologics License Application ("BLA") in the second half of 2019 based on the above available acute primary, secondary, and safety data withthe long term twelve-month safety follow-up data submitted during the BLA review, subject to FDA concurrence at a pre BLA meeting planned for first halfof 2019. FDA may decide not to grant us the meeting or not to accept a BLA submission without the long term twelve-month safety follow-up data, in whichcase we will not be able to submit a BLA until the study is completed or until such time that the FDA accepts our BLA submission. We cannot predictwhether the study will be successful and, even if it is successful in every aspect the FDA will accept a BLA submission following this study, how long theFDA may not take to review and approve NexoBrid following our BLA submission or whether any such approval in the United States will ultimately begranted. Similarly, we cannot predict how long regulatory authorities outside of the United States and Europe will take to provide NexoBrid with marketingauthorization in their jurisdictions or whether such authorizations will be granted at all. A number of companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnologyindustry have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials, even after obtaining promising results in earlier clinical trials. See “—Productdevelopment is a lengthy and expensive process, with an uncertain outcome” and “—Development and commercialization of NexoBrid in the United Statesand our pipeline product candidates worldwide requires successful completion of the regulatory approval process, and may suffer delays or fail.” The failureto receive such marketing authorization, especially in the United States, would have a materially adverse impact on our business prospects. Development and commercialization of NexoBrid in the United States and our pipeline product candidates worldwide requires successful completion ofthe regulatory approval process, and may suffer delays or fail. In the United States and Europe, as well as other jurisdictions, we are required to apply for and receive marketing authorization before we can marketour products, as we have already received for NexoBrid in the European Union, Israel, Argentina South Korea and Russia. This process can be time-consuming and complicated and may result in unanticipated delays. To secure marketing authorization, an applicant generally is required to submit anapplication that includes the data supporting preclinical and clinical safety and efficacy as well as detailed information on the manufacturing and control ofthe product, proposed labeling and other information. Before marketing authorization is granted, regulatory authorities generally require the inspection ofthe manufacturing facility or facilities and quality systems (including those of third parties) at which the product candidate is manufactured and tested, toassess compliance with strictly enforced current good manufacturing practices (“cGMP”), as well as potential audits of the non-clinical and clinical trial sitesthat generated the data cited in the marketing authorization application. We cannot predict how long the applicable regulatory authority or agency will take to grant marketing authorization or whether any suchauthorizations will ultimately be granted. Regulatory agencies, including the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”), have substantialdiscretion in the approval process, and the approval process and the requirements governing clinical trials vary from country to country. The policies of theFDA, the EMA or other regulatory authorities may change or may not be explicit, and additional government regulations may be enacted that could prevent,limit or delay regulatory approval of NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates. For example, in December 2016, the 21st Century Cures Act, orCures Act, was signed into law in the United States. The Cures Act, among other things, is intended to modernize the regulation of drugs and biologics andspur innovation. If we are slow or unable to adapt to changes in existing requirements or the adoption of new requirements or policies, or if we are not able tomaintain regulatory compliance, we may lose any marketing approval that we may have obtained and we may not achieve or sustain profitability. We alsocannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative or executive action, either inthe United States or abroad. For example, certain policies of the current U.S. presidential administration may impact our business and industry. Namely, thisadministration has taken several executive actions, including the issuance of a number of executive orders, that could impose significant burdens on, orotherwise materially delay, the FDA’s ability to engage in routine regulatory and oversight activities such as implementing statutes through rulemaking,issuance of guidance, and review and approval of marketing applications. It is difficult to predict how these requirements will be implemented, and the extentto which they will impact the FDA’s ability to exercise its regulatory authority. If these executive actions impose constraints on the FDA’s ability to engagein oversight and implementation activities in the normal course, our business may be negatively impacted. 4 In addition, any regulatory approval that we will receive may also contain requirements for potentially costly post-marketing testing, includingPhase 4 clinical trials, and surveillance to monitor the safety and efficacy of the product candidate. For example, as part of the EMA regulatory approvalprocess, we agreed to provide further data from a post-marketing Phase 3 clinical trial of NexoBrid. We believe that our U.S. Phase 3 study will also serve toaddress this post-marketing commitment to EMA. If the EMA does not accept such study or is not satisfied with the study results, we will need to performanother costly study to provide such data. Once a product is approved, the manufacturing processes, labeling, packaging, distribution, adverse eventreporting, storage, advertising, promotion, import, export and recordkeeping for the product will be subject to extensive and ongoing regulatoryrequirements. These requirements include submission of safety and other post-marketing information and reports, registration and continued compliance withcGMP for any clinical trials that we conduct post-approval. Although our manufacturing facility is cGMP-certified, we may face difficulties in obtainingregulatory approval for the manufacturing and quality control process of our pipeline product candidates. Any delays or failures in obtaining regulatory and marketing approval for NexoBrid in the United States, or for our pipeline product candidatesworldwide, would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Changes in funding for the FDA and other government agencies could hinder their ability to hire and retain key leadership and other personnel, orotherwise prevent new products and services from being developed or commercialized in a timely manner, which could negatively impact our business. The ability of the FDA to review and approve new products can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding levels,ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept the payment of user fees, and statutory, regulatory, and policy changes. Average review times at theagency have fluctuated in recent years as a result. In addition, government funding of other government agencies that fund research and developmentactivities is subject to the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable. Disruptions at the FDA and other agencies may also slow the time necessary for new drugs and biologics to be reviewed and/or approved bynecessary government agencies, which would adversely affect our business. For example, over the last several years, including for 35 days beginning onDecember 22, 2018, the U.S. government has shut down several times and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA, have had to furloughcritical FDA employees and stop critical activities. If a prolonged government shutdown occurs, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timelyreview and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. We are dependent on our contract with the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority to fund our Phase 3 pivotal studies and otherdevelopment activities of NexoBrid in the United States, and if we do not continue to receive funding under this contract, we may need to obtain alternativesources of funding. We have a contract with BARDA valued at up to $132 million for the advancement of the development and manufacturing, as well as theprocurement, of NexoBrid in the United States. Under the contract, BARDA has agreed to fund up to $56 million of the development costs of NexoBridrequired to obtain marketing approval in the United States, including our ongoing pediatric phase 3 study and its expansion to include U.S. pediatric burncare sites, and has an option to further fund $10 million in development activities for other potential NexoBrid indications. BARDA has also made a $16.5million commitment for procurement of NexoBrid, which is contingent upon the U.S. FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) and/or FDA marketingauthorization for NexoBrid, and has a $50 million option for additional procurement of NexoBrid. In addition, we were recently awarded a new contract todevelop NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries as part of BARDA preparedness for mass casualty events. The contract provides approximately$12 million of funding to support research and development activities up to pivotal studies in animals under the U.S. FDA Animal Efficacy Rule andcontains options for additional funding of up to $31 million for additional development activities, animal pivotal studies, and the BLA submission forlicensure of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries. However, both contracts provides that BARDA may terminate the contract at any time, atits convenience, without any further funding obligations. There can be no assurances that BARDA will not terminate the contract. Changes in governmentbudgets and agendas may result in a decreased and de-prioritized emphasis on supporting the development of products for the treatment of severe burns suchas NexoBrid. Any reduction or delay in BARDA funding may force us to suspend the program or seek alternative funding, which may not be available onnon-dilutive terms, terms favorable to us or at all. Further, we cannot provide any assurances as to when or whether BARDA’s commitment for procurement ofNexoBrid will occur nor when or whether BARDA's option to fund additional development activities for NexoBrid will be exercised.5 Recently enacted and future legislation may increase the difficulty and cost for us to obtain marketing approval of and commercialize our productcandidates and affect the prices we may obtain. The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that may affect our ability to sell NexoBrid, EscharEx or any of our pipeline product candidates profitably, if approved.We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts of hospitals, governments, insurance companies, managed careorganizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs of healthcare may adversely affect: ·the market acceptance or demand for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any of our pipeline product candidates, if approved; ·the ability to set a price that we believe is fair for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any of our pipeline product candidates, if approved; ·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability; ·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and ·the availability of capital. Among policy makers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems withthe stated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been aparticular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. In March 2010, President Obama signed into law thePatient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, or collectively, the Affordable Care Act, asweeping law intended to broaden access to health insurance, reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud andabuse, add new transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and imposeadditional health policy reforms. Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential product candidates are the following: ·an annual, nondeductible 2.3% fee on any entity that manufactures or imports certain branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs. Through a series of legislativeamendments, the tax was suspended for 2016 through 2019, but is scheduled to return beginning in 2020, absent further Congressional action; ·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0% of theaverage manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively; ·addressed a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected; ·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 70% point-of-sale discounts off negotiatedprices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for the manufacturer’s outpatientdrugs to be covered under Medicare Part D; ·extension of manufacturers’ Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaid managed careorganizations; 6 ·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage to additionalindividuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of the Federal PovertyLevel, thereby potentially increasing manufacturers’ Medicaid rebate liability; ·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; ·a new requirement to annually report drug samples that manufacturers and distributors provide to physicians; and ·a new Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectiveness research.There have been judicial and congressional challenges to certain aspects of the Affordable Care Act, and we expect the current U.S. presidentialadministration to continue to seek amendments to or repeal of the Affordable Care Act. While Congress has not passed repeal legislation, the Tax Cuts andJobs Act of 2017 includes a provision repealing, effective January 1, 2019, the tax-based shared responsibility payment imposed by the Affordable Care Acton certain individuals who fail to maintain qualifying health coverage for all or part of a year that is commonly referred to as the “individual mandate.” OnDecember 14, 2018, a U.S. District Court Judge in the Northern District of Texas, ruled that the individual mandate is a critical and inseverable feature of theAffordable Care Act, and therefore, because it was repealed as part of the Tax Act, the remaining provisions of the Affordable Care Act are invalid as well.While the Trump Administration and CMS have both stated that the ruling will have no immediate effect, it is unclear how this decision, subsequent appeals,if any, and other efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act will impact the Affordable Care Act and our business. Congress may consider otherlegislation to repeal or replace elements of the Affordable Care Act in the future. We cannot predict what legislation, if any, to repeal or replace theAffordable Care Act will become law, or what impact any such legislation may have on our product candidate In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changes includedaggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of 2% per fiscal year, which went into effect in April 2013 and, due to subsequent legislativeamendments, will stay in effect through 2027 unless additional Congressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law theAmerican Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among other things, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, and increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These laws may result in additional reductions inMedicare and other healthcare funding, which could negatively impact the market for NexoBrid and our other product candidates, if approved, and,accordingly, our financial operations. There has been heightened governmental scrutiny recently over the manner in which drug manufacturers set prices fortheir marketed products, which have resulted in several Congressional inquiries and proposed bills designed to, among other things, bring more transparencyto product pricing, review the relationship between pricing and manufacturer patient programs, and reform government program reimbursementmethodologies for drug products. We expect that other possible healthcare reform measures may result in additional reductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, morerigorous coverage criteria, new payment methodologies and additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approved product. Anyreduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other government programs may result in a similar reduction in payments from private payors. Theimplementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generate revenue, attain profitability, orcommercialize our drugs. Legislative and regulatory proposals have been made to expand post-approval requirements and restrict sales and promotional activities for drugs.We cannot be sure whether additional legislative changes will be enacted, or whether the FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations will be changed, orwhat the impact of such changes on the marketing approvals of our product candidates, if any, may be. In addition, increased scrutiny by the U.S. Congress ofthe FDA’s approval process may significantly delay or prevent marketing approval, as well as subject us to more stringent product labeling and post-marketing testing and other requirements. 7 The commercial success of NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates will depend upon their degree of market acceptance. NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates may not gain market acceptance by physicians and their teams, healthcare payors andothers in the medical community. Although many physicians in burn centers throughout Europe, the United States and other international markets have usedNexoBrid for severe burns as part of our clinical trials or since NexoBrid’s commercial launch in Europe, Israel Argentina and South Korea, we cannotguarantee that use of NexoBrid will be accepted in the market. We need to successfully integrate NexoBrid into the overall treatment of burns in burn centers.If NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates do not achieve an adequate level of acceptance, we may not generate revenue and we may notachieve or sustain profitability. The degree of market acceptance of NexoBrid in Europe, Israel, Argentina, south Korea and Russia, if we receive marketingapproval, in other countries and of EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates, will depend on a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control,including: ·the willingness of physicians, burn care teams and hospital administrators to administer our products and their acceptance as part of the medicaldepartment routine; ·the consent of hospitals to fund/purchase NexoBrid or obtain third-party coverage or reimbursement for our products; ·the ability to offer NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates for sale at an attractive value; ·the efficacy and potential advantages of NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates relative to current standard of care; ·the prevalence and severity of any side effects; and ·the efficacy, potential advantages and timing of introduction to the market of alternative treatments. Failure to achieve market acceptance for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any of our pipeline product candidates, if and when they are approved forcommercial sale, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may be unsuccessful in commercializing our products due to unfavorable pricing regulations or third-party coverage and reimbursement policies. While we are executing a country-specific market access strategy, which includes pricing and/or reimbursement targets for NexoBrid in most ofEurope, we cannot guarantee that we will receive favorable hospital, regional or national funding or pricing and reimbursement. Additionally, we cannotpredict the pricing and reimbursement of NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates. The regulations that govern marketing approvals, pricingand reimbursement for new products vary widely from country to country, among regions within some countries and among some hospitals. In some foreignjurisdictions, including the European Union, the pricing of prescription pharmaceuticals is subject to governmental control. In other countries, coveragenegotiations must occur at the regional or hospital level in order to be included in the hospital formulary. Pricing negotiations with governmental authoritiesat the regional or hospital level can take considerable time after the receipt of marketing approval for a product candidate. As a result, even after obtaining regulatory approval for a product in a particular country, we may be subject to price regulations or denied or limitedby reimbursement or formulary inclusion, which may delay or limit our commercial launch of the product and negatively impact the revenue we are able togenerate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in NexoBrid, EscharEx orour pipeline product candidates, even after obtaining regulatory approval. Additionally, we cannot be sure that coverage and reimbursement will be available for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any pipeline product candidate thatwe commercialize in the future and, if reimbursement is available, whether the level of reimbursement will be adequate. Coverage and reimbursement mayaffect the demand for, the price of, or the budget allocated for reimbursement for any product for which we obtain marketing approval. Obtaining coverageand adequate reimbursement for our products may be particularly difficult because of the higher prices often associated with products administered under thesupervision of a physician. If coverage and reimbursement are not available or are available only at limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize NexoBrid, EscharEx or any pipeline product candidate that we successfully develop. Eligibility for reimbursement does not guarantee thatany product will be paid for in all cases or at a rate that covers our costs. Interim payments for new products, if applicable, may also not be sufficient to coverour costs and may not be made permanent. Payment rates may vary according to the use of the product and the clinical setting in which it is used, may bebased on payments allowed for lower cost products that are already reimbursed and may be incorporated into existing payments for other services. Net pricesfor products may be reduced by mandatory discounts or rebates required by government healthcare programs or private payors and by any future relaxation oflaws that presently restrict imports of products from countries where they may be sold at lower prices than in certain other countries, such as the United States.In the United States, third-party payors often rely on the coverage policies and payment limitations imposed by Medicare and other government payors, insetting their own coverage policies and reimbursement rates. Our inability to promptly obtain coverage and profitable payment rates from hospital budget,government-funded and private payors for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any pipeline product candidate could have a material adverse effect on our operatingresults, our ability to raise capital needed to commercialize products and our overall financial condition. 8 Our success will depend initially on our ability to commercialize NexoBrid in Europe. We are currently marketing a single product, NexoBrid, based on our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, which has already been approved bythe EMA and the Israeli, Argentinean, Russian and South Korean Ministries of Health for marketing in the European Union, Israel, Argentina, Russia andSouth Korea respectively, for the treatment of adults with deep partial- and full-thickness burns, which we refer to as severe burns. NexoBrid is not currentlyapproved for marketing in any other jurisdiction, including the United States, and has not been approved for any other indication or for use in children. Welaunched NexoBrid in Europe in 2014, in Israel in 2015, and in Argentina in 2016, South Korea and Russia in 2019, through our local distributors. InNovember 2017, the European Commission re-granted a five-year renewal of our NexoBrid marketing authorization. We anticipate that, for at least the nextseveral years, our ability to generate revenues and become profitable will depend on the commercial success of NexoBrid in these markets. We are marketing, selling and distributing NexoBrid in Europe and in Israel through our own sales force. We have established a commercialorganization for the marketing, sales and distribution of NexoBrid, including our European headquarters in Germany and sales and marketing teamsthroughout Europe. In order to successfully commercialize NexoBrid, we must successfully manage and operate our marketing, sales, distribution, managerialand other non-technical capabilities, which includes many challenges, such retaining talented personnel; training employees; having the appropriate systemof incentives; managing headcount in Europe; and managing business units in Europe. The continued operation of our own sales infrastructure is expensiveand time-consuming. Moreover, we do not have substantial experience as a company in operating a significant sales infrastructure and we cannot be certainthat we will be able to do so successfully. We will have to compete with other pharmaceutical, biotechnology and wound care companies to recruit, hire, trainand retain personnel for medical affairs, marketing and sales. We have a history of net losses. We expect to continue to incur substantial and increasing net losses for the foreseeable future, and we may never achieve ormaintain profitability. We are not profitable and have incurred significant net losses, including net losses of $22.2 million and $1.0 million for the years endedDecember 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $130.7 million. We expect to incur substantial netlosses for the foreseeable future. These losses and negative cash flows have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our shareholders equity andworking capital. We make business decisions based on forecasts of future sales of our products and pipeline product candidates that may be inaccurate. Our market estimates are based on many assumptions, including, but not limited to, reliance on external market research, our own internal research,population estimates, estimates of disease diagnostic rates, treatment trends, and market estimates by third parties. Any of these assumptions can materiallyimpact our forecasts and we cannot be assured that the assumptions are accurate. If the market for any of our products or product candidates is less than thisdata would suggest, the potential sales for the product or pipeline product candidates in question could be adversely affected, and our inventories and netlosses could increase. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with biopharmaceutical product development and commercialization, we are unable toaccurately predict the timing or amount of future expenses or when, or if, we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. We have financed ouroperations primarily through the sale of equity securities, licensing agreements and government grants. The size of our future net losses will depend, in part,on the rate of growth or contraction of our expenses and the level and rate of growth, if any, of our revenues. If we are unable to successfully commercializeNexoBrid, EscharEx or one or more of our pipeline product candidates or if revenue from NexoBrid, EscharEx or any pipeline product candidate that receivesmarketing approval is insufficient, we will not achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increaseprofitability. 9 We expect to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses and future capital requirements may increase if and as we: ·accelerate our clinical development activities, particularly with respect to our clinical development of EscharEx for the debridement of chronicand other hard-to-heal wounds and our clinical trials for our product candidate for the treatment of connective tissue disorders or otherindications; ·continue to operate our sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure in Europe and thereafter in the United States to commercialize NexoBridand any pipeline product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval; ·further scale-up the manufacturing process for NexoBrid; ·seek regulatory and marketing approvals for NexoBrid and any pipeline product candidate that successfully completes clinical trials; ·initiate additional preclinical, clinical or other studies for NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates and seek to identify andvalidate new products; ·acquire rights to other product candidates and technologies; ·change or add suppliers; ·maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio; ·attract and retain skilled personnel; and ·experience any delays or encounter issues with any of the above. We may need substantial additional capital in the future, which may cause dilution to our existing shareholders, restrict our operations or require us torelinquish rights to our pipeline product candidates or intellectual property. If additional capital is not available, we may have to delay, reduce or ceaseoperations. We may seek additional funding in the future, which may consist of equity offerings, collaborations, licensing arrangements or any other means todevelop our pipeline product candidates, increase our commercial manufacturing capabilities, operate our sales and marketing capabilities or other generalcorporate purposes. For example, on March 7, 2016, the SEC declared our shelf registration statement on Form F-3 effective. Under this shelf registrationstatement, we could offer from time to time up to $125 million in the aggregate of our ordinary shares, warrants and/or debt securities in one or more series orissuances. In September 2017, we used the shelf registration statement to complete an underwritten public offering of 5,037,664 of our ordinary shares, for netproceeds of $22.7 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses payable by us. Our September 2017 offering diluted then-existing shareholders and to the extent that we raise additional capital through, for example, the sale ofequity or convertible debt securities, our existing shareholders’ ownership interest will be further diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or otherpreferences that adversely affect our shareholders’ rights. The incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance of certain equity securities could result in increasedfixed payment obligations and could also result in certain restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt or to issueadditional equity, limitations on our ability to acquire or license intellectual property rights and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact ourability to conduct our business. In addition, the issuance of additional equity securities by us, or the possibility of such issuance, may cause the market priceof our ordinary shares to decline. Securing additional financing may also divert our management from our day-to-day activities, which may adversely affectour ability to develop and commercialize NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates. Additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. In the event that we enter into collaborations or licensing arrangementsin order to raise capital, we may be required to accept unfavorable terms, including relinquishing or licensing to a third party on unfavorable terms our rightsto product candidates or intellectual property that we otherwise would seek to develop or commercialize ourselves or reserve for future potentialarrangements when we might be able to achieve more favorable terms. 10 If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may be required to: ·delay, scale back or discontinue the development, manufacturing scale-up or commercialization of NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline productcandidates; ·seek corporate partners for NexoBrid, EscharEx or one or more of our pipeline product candidates on terms that are less favorable than mightotherwise be available; or ·relinquish or license on unfavorable terms, our rights to NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates that we otherwise would seek todevelop or commercialize ourselves. Any such consequence will have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and prospects and on our ability to develop our pipeline productcandidates. We depend on a sole supplier to obtain our intermediate drug substance, bromelain SP, which is necessary for the production of our products. We currently procure bromelain SP, an intermediate drug substance in the manufacturing of NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline productcandidates, from a single supplier, Challenge Bioproducts Corporation Ltd. (“CBC”). CBC’s manufacturing facilities are located in the Republic of Chinaand it uses proprietary methods to manufacture bromelain SP. Our supply agreement with CBC has no fixed expiration date and can be voluntarily terminatedby us, with at least six months’ advance written notice, or by CBC, with at least 24 months’ advance written notice. Although we have a contractual right toprocure this material from other suppliers, subject to payment of a one-time, non-material licensing fee to CBC, procuring this material from any other sourcewould require time and effort which may interrupt our supply of bromelain SP and may cause an interruption of the supply of NexoBrid, EscharEx and ourpipeline product candidates to the marketplace and for future clinical trials or other development purposes. Regulatory authorities could require that weconduct additional studies in support of a new supplier, which could result in significant additional costs or delays. Furthermore, there can be no assurancethat we would be able to procure alternative supplies of bromelain SP at all or at comparable quality or competitive prices or upon fair and reasonablecontractual terms and conditions. Although we believe that we currently store sufficient inventory of bromelain SP in our warehouse and CBC warehouse tocontinue full capacity operations for approximately two years, this inventory may prove insufficient, and any interruption or failure to source additionalbromelain SP from CBC or other third parties in a timely manner, or at all, would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results ofoperations. If our manufacturing facility in Yavne, Israel were to suffer a serious accident, or if a force majeure event materially affected our ability to operate andproduce NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates, all of our manufacturing capacity could be shut down for an extended period. We currently rely on a single manufacturing facility in Yavne, Israel, and we expect that all of our revenues in the near future will be derived fromproducts manufactured at this facility. If this facility were to suffer an accident or a force majeure event such as war, missile or terrorist attack, earthquake,major fire or explosion, major equipment failure or power failure lasting beyond the capabilities of our backup generators or similar event, our revenueswould be materially adversely affected and any of our clinical trials could be materially delayed. In this situation, our manufacturing capacity could be shutdown for an extended period, we could experience a loss of raw materials, work in process or finished goods inventory and our ability to operate our businesswould be harmed. In addition, in any such event, the reconstruction of our manufacturing facility and storage facilities, and obtaining regulatory approval forthe new facilities could be time-consuming. During this period, we would be unable to manufacture NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates. In addition,we currently have limited inventory of NexoBrid that we can supply to our customers in the event that we are unable to further manufacture NexoBrid. Moreover, our business insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with the security situation in the Middle East.Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assureyou that this government coverage will be maintained, or if maintained, will be sufficient to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damagesincurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. 11 We may not be able to expand our production or processing capabilities or satisfy future demand. We are currently seeking to expand our manufacturing capabilities in order to increase our capacity to manufacture NexoBrid and future products.We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain the requisite approvals, including meeting regulatory and quality requirements, or the necessary capitalresources for procuring this facility, or if we do, that the facility will satisfy additional growing demand. Conversely, there can be no assurance, even if weobtain a new facility, that demand for our products will increase proportionately to the increased production capability. Furthermore, we cannot assure thatthis or similar projects will be implemented in a timely and cost efficient manner, and that our current production will not be adversely affected by theoperational challenges of implementing the expansion project. We are subject to a number of other manufacturing risks, any of which could substantially increase our costs and limit supply of NexoBrid, EscharEx andour pipeline product candidates. The process of manufacturing NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates is complex, highly regulated and subject to the risk ofproduct loss due to contamination, equipment failure or improper installation or operation of equipment, or vendor or operator error. Even minor deviationsfrom normal manufacturing processes or quality requirements for our products could result in reduced production yields, product defects and other supplydisruptions. If microbial, viral or other contaminations are discovered in NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates or in the manufacturing facilities inwhich NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates are or will be made, such manufacturing facilities may need to be closed to investigate and remedy thecontamination. Although we have not experienced any contaminations, major equipment failures, or other similar manufacturing problems of such magnitude, anyadverse developments affecting manufacturing operations for NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates may result in shipment delays, inventoryshortages, lot failures, withdrawals or recalls, or other interruptions in the supply of NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates. We may also have to takeinventory write-offs and incur other charges and expenses for our products that fail to meet specifications, undertake costly remediation efforts, or seek morecostly manufacturing alternatives. Our ability to continue manufacturing and distributing our products depends on our continued adherence to current good manufacturing practicesregulations. The manufacturing processes for our products are governed by detailed regulations that are set forth in the current cGMP. Failure by ourmanufacturing and quality operations unit to adhere to established regulations or to meet a specification or procedure set forth in cGMP requirements couldrequire that a product or material be rejected and destroyed. Our adherence to cGMP regulations and the effectiveness of our quality control systems areperiodically assessed through inspections of our manufacturing facility by regulatory authorities. Such inspections could result in deficiency citations, whichwould require us to take action to correct those deficiencies to the satisfaction of the applicable regulatory authorities. If critical deficiencies are noted or ifwe are unable to prevent recurrences, we may have to recall products or suspend operations until appropriate measures can be implemented. Since cGMPreflects ever-evolving standards, we need to regularly update our manufacturing processes and procedures to comply with cGMP. These changes may causeus to incur additional costs and may adversely impact our profitability. For example, more sensitive testing assays (if and when they become available ordiscontinuation of the availability of the disposables used in production) may be required or existing procedures or processes may require revalidation, all ofwhich may be costly and time-consuming and could delay or prevent the manufacturing of NexoBrid or launch of a new product. We may have liabilities under our former agreements with PolyHeal Ltd. In 2010 we entered into a series of agreements with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”), and PolyHeal Ltd. (“PolyHeal”), to collaborate inthe development, manufacturing and commercialization of PolyHeal’s wound product (the “PolyHeal Product”). Under the 2010 series of agreementsbetween PolyHeal and the company (collectively, the “2010 PolyHeal Agreements”), PolyHeal granted us an exclusive global license to develop,manufacture and commercialize the PolyHeal Product, and we granted an exclusive sub-license to Teva to commercialize the PolyHeal Product worldwide. Inaddition, in accordance with the 2010 PolyHeal Agreements, Teva made investments in our ordinary shares and agreed to fund our research and developmentexpenses and certain manufacturing costs and perform all marketing activities for the PolyHeal Product, under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. On November15, 2012, we informed Teva of the first administration of the next generation of the PolyHeal Product in humans, which constituted a milestone under the2010 PolyHeal Agreements. Upon achievement of this milestone, Teva was required to invest an additional $6.75 million in exchange for our ordinaryshares, and following and pending such investment, we were required to purchase, for an identical amount, ordinary shares of PolyHeal from its existingshareholders. In addition, we believe that Teva was obligated to us for certain payments pursuant to a 2007 collaboration agreement between Teva ("2007Teva Agreement")and the Company and the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. On March 24, 2019 we entered into a settlement agreement and mutual generalrelease (the “Teva Settlement Agreement”) with Teva, which settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that each party or any of its controlledaffiliates had or has to the other party or any of its controlled affiliates under, in connection with or arising out of 2007 Teva agreement and 201 PolyHealAgreement, which have terminated effective as of December 31, 2012 and September 2, 2013, as applicable, and which related to the Company's Product,NexoBrid, and to PolyHeal.12On September 15, 2014, a statement of claim was filed against the company by certain shareholders of PolyHeal. The plaintiffs allege that thecompany is obligated to pay them a total amount of approximately $1.3 million plus applicable interest (totaled $1.5 million as of the date of the ruling) inexchange for their respective portion of PolyHeal’s shares, following the milestone occurrence. On November 13, 2017, the Tel Aviv District Court issued aruling in favor of the plaintiffs (the “2017 Ruling”). The Court ruled that we are obligated to purchase PolyHeal’s shares for approximately $6.75 million plusapplicable interest (totaled $7.5 million as of the date of the ruling), which represents the purchase price for the total number of shares that we were obligatedto purchase from PolyHeal subject to the receipt of equivalent funds from Teva. On December 27, 2017, we filed an appeal to the Supreme Court over the saidruling (the “Appeal”), alleging, among other things, that the agreement according to which the ruling was granted was misinterpreted by the District Court.We further alleged that both the wording of the agreement and the conduct of the parties thereunder prove that our’ obligation to purchase PolyHeal’s shareswas subject to the prior receipt of funds, which were never received, from Teva. On January 30, 2018, certain PolyHeal shareholders filed a cross appeal,alleging that they are entitled to receive from us a full repayment of their counsel’s fees in a sum equal to 12.5% of the consideration to be paid for theirshares (the “Cross Appeal”). In accordance with the 2017 Ruling, on February 7, 2018, we purchased PolyHeal’s Shares in consideration for a total sum ofapproximately $1.5 million.On March 24, 2019, we entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release (the "PolyHeal Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs,which contingent upon the Supreme Court’s approval of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that we andthe plaintiffs had, has or may have to the other party under, in connection with or arising out of the transactions described above. Pursuant to the terms of thisPolyHeal Settlement Agreement, the plaintiffs will repay to the company a non-material portion of the amount that was ruled in their favor under the 2017Ruling, and the Israeli Supreme Court will approve and accept the appeal that was filed by us on December, 2017, cancel the 2017 Ruling that was issued bythe District Court against us, and reject the Cross-Appeal. However, if the Israeli Supreme Court does not approve of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement orrefuses to take the actions requested from the court in the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, these matters may result in the continuation of the existinglitigation which would increase our expenses and may disrupt our management’s focus on our business. In addition, we could be required to purchase an equivalent of $6 million of additional ordinary shares of PolyHeal from other shareholders, whichcould have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition. Accordingly, a full provision for the purchase price of the shares, plus theaccrued interest, totaling $6 million, was recorded within the loss from discontinued operations in respect of the consideration for PolyHeal’s shares. NexoBrid, EscharEx, our current pipeline product candidates or future product candidates may cause unanticipated and undesirable side effectsor have other properties, which are currently unknown to us. NexoBrid, EscharEx and all of our current pipeline product candidates rely on our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, although their specificformulations or mode of applications may vary. Like most pharmaceutical products, our approval labels in Europe, Israel, Argentina, South Korea and Russiafor NexoBrid lists certain side effects. If we or others identify previously unknown problems with NexoBrid, EscharEx or their underlying proteolyticenzymes, including adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, problems with our manufacturers or manufacturing processes, or failure to complywith regulatory requirements, the following consequences, among others, may occur: ·restrictions on the marketing or manufacturing of the product, withdrawal of the product from the market or voluntary or mandatory productrecalls; 13 ·fines, warning letters or holds on clinical trials; ·harm to our reputation, reduced demand for our products and loss of market acceptance; ·refusal by the applicable regulatory authority to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications filed by us, orsuspension or revocation of product license approvals; ·product seizure or detention, or refusal to permit the import or export of products; and ·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties. Any of these events could prevent us from achieving or maintaining market acceptance of NexoBrid, our pipeline product candidates or futureproduct candidates, which would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. We may rely on the Animal Rule in conducting trials, which could be time consuming and expensive. To obtain FDA approval for our product candidates, we may obtain clinical data from trials in healthy human subjects that demonstrate adequatesafety, and efficacy data from adequate and well-controlled animal studies under regulations issued by the FDA in 2002, often referred to as the “AnimalRule.” Among other requirements, the animal studies must establish that the drug or biological product is reasonably likely to produce clinical benefits inhumans. If we use this approach we may not be able to sufficiently demonstrate this correlation to the satisfaction of the FDA, as these corollaries are difficultto establish and are often unclear. Because the FDA must agree that data derived from animal studies may be extrapolated to establish safety andeffectiveness in humans, seeking approval under the Animal Rule may add significant time, complexity and uncertainty to the testing and approval process.The FDA may decide that our data are insufficient for approval and require additional preclinical, clinical or other studies, refuse to approve our productcandidates, or place restrictions on our ability to commercialize the products. In addition, products approved under the Animal Rule are subject to additionalrequirements including post-marketing study requirements, restrictions imposed on marketing or distribution or requirements to provide information topatients. Further, regulatory authorities in other countries may not have established an “Animal Rule” equivalent, and consequently there can be noassurance that we will be able to make a submission for marketing approval in foreign countries based on such animal data. We face competition from the existing standard of care and potential changes in medical practice and technology and the possibility that our competitorsmay develop products, treatments or procedures that are similar, more advanced, safer or more effective than ours. The medical, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are intensely competitive and subject to significant technological and practice changes.We may face competition from many different sources with respect to NexoBrid, our pipeline product candidates or any product candidates that we may seekto develop or commercialize in the future. Possible competitors may be medical practitioners, pharmaceutical and wound care companies, academic andmedical institutions, governmental agencies and public and private research institutions, among others. Should any competitor’s product candidates receiveregulatory or marketing approval prior to ours, they may establish a strong market position and be difficult to displace, or may diminish the need for ourproducts. Our commercial opportunity could be reduced or eliminated if our competitors develop and commercialize products, treatments or procedures thatare safer, more effective, have fewer or less severe side effects, are more convenient or are less expensive than any product that we may develop. In addition,we face competition from the current standard of care for eschar removal in severe burns, which is surgery, where debridement can occur by tangentialexcision, dermabrasion or hydro jet, or non-surgical alternatives, such as topical medications applied to the eschar to facilitate the natural healing process.We face competition in the removal of eschar in severe burns from surgery and topical medications such as gels. In chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, weexpect to face competition from Smith & Nephew Plc’s Santyl, a collagenase-based product indicated for debriding chronic dermal ulcers and severelyburned areas. Many of our current or future competitors may have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in research and development,manufacturing, preclinical testing, conducting clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing approved products than we may have. Mergersand acquisitions in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries or wound care markets may result in even more resources being concentrated among asmaller number of our competitors. For example, Healthpoint Biotherapeutics, which marketed Santyl, was acquired by Smith & Nephew Plc in 2012. Smallerand other early stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and establishedcompanies. These companies compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel, establishing clinical trial sites andpatient registration for clinical trials, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to, or necessary for, our programs. 14 We may lose orphan drug designation for NexoBrid in the United States and the European Union. NexoBrid has been designated an orphan drug in the United States European Union and South Korea. One of the incentives provided by an orphandrug designation is market exclusivity for seven and ten years in the United States and the European Union, respectively. While the marketing exclusivity ofan orphan drug prevents other sponsors from obtaining approval of a similar medicinal product for the same indication (unless the sponsor demonstratesclinical superiority or a market shortage occurs), it would not prevent other sponsors from obtaining approval of the same compound for other indications. Inaddition, the FDA or the EMA may revisit any orphan drug designation and retains the ability to withdraw the designation at any time. The U.S. Congress hasconsidered, and may consider in the future, legislation that would restrict the duration or scope of the market exclusivity of an orphan drug and, thus, wecannot be sure that the benefits to us of the existing statute will remain in effect. Regulatory approval for NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates is and may be limited to specific indications and conditions for whichclinical safety and efficacy have been demonstrated, and the prescription off-label uses could adversely affect our business. The marketing approval for NexoBrid in the European Union, Israel, Argentina. South Korea and Russia is limited to the treatment of deep partial-and full-thickness burns in adults. In addition, any additional regulatory approval of NexoBrid for severe burns and any regulatory approval we may receivefor any of our pipeline product candidates in the future, would be limited to those specific indications for which such pipeline product candidate had beendeemed safe and effective by the EMA, the FDA or other regulatory authority and, like the EMA marketing approval for NexoBrid, would be subject to arenewal examination five years after the marketing approval was extended for an additional five years during 2017. Additionally, labeling restrictions limitthe manner in which a product may be used. For example, NexoBrid’s label provides that it only be used in specialized burns centers or by burn specialistsand that it is not to be applied to more than 15% of the patient’s total body surface area. If physicians prescribe the medication for unapproved, or “off-label,”uses or in a manner that is inconsistent with the manufacturer’s labeling, it could produce results such as reduced efficacy or other adverse effects, and thereputation of our products in the marketplace may suffer. In addition, should any of our future products have a significant price difference and if they are usedinterchangeably, off-label uses may cause a decline in our revenues or potential revenues. Furthermore, while physicians may choose to prescribe treatments for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and for uses that differfrom those approved by regulatory authorities, we cannot promote the products for any indications other than those that are specifically approved by theEMA, the FDA or other regulatory authorities. Regulatory authorities restrict communications by companies on the subject of off-label use. If ourpromotional activities fail to comply with these regulations or guidelines, we may be subject to enforcement actions by, these authorities. In the UnitedStates, “off-label promotion” by pharmaceutical companies has resulted in significant litigation under the Federal False Claims Act, violations of which mayresult in substantial civil penalties and fines as well as exclusion from government health care programs. More generally, failure to follow the rules andguidelines of regulatory agencies relating to promotion and advertising, such as that promotional materials not be false or misleading, can result in refusal toapprove a product, the suspension or withdrawal of an approved product from the market, product recalls, fines, disgorgement of money, operatingrestrictions, injunctions or criminal prosecution. If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business could be disrupted. Our future financial performance and ability to successfully commercialize our products and to compete effectively will depend, in part, on ourability to manage any future growth effectively. We have made and expect to continue to make significant investments to enable our future growth through,among other things, new product development, clinical trials for new indications and expansion of our marketing and sales infrastructure. While we believethat our current manufacturing capacity is sufficient to meet the expected near-term commercial demand for NexoBrid, we are planning to scale-up the currentcapacity, which we estimate will be valid and qualified, subject to successful authorities’ cGMP audit, during 2022 and which we believe will costapproximately $8-12 million. We must also be prepared to expand our work force and train, motivate and manage additional employees as the need foradditional personnel arises. Even following expansion, our facilities, personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our futureoperations, or we may expand, but then fail to grow our sales of NexoBrid or our pipeline product candidates sufficiently to support such operational growth.Any failure to manage future growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.15 Exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Israeli shekel, the Euro and other non-U.S. currencies may negatively affect our earnings. The dollar is our functional and reporting currency. However, a significant portion of our operating expenses are incurred in Israeli shekels andEuros. As a result, we are exposed to the risks that the shekel may appreciate relative to the dollar, or, if the shekel instead devalues relative to the dollar, thatthe inflation rate in Israel may exceed such rate of devaluation of the shekel, or that the timing of such devaluation may lag behind inflation in Israel. In anysuch event, the dollar cost of our operations in Israel would increase and our dollar-denominated results of operations would be adversely affected. We cannotpredict any future trends in the rate of inflation in Israel or the rate of devaluation (if any) of the shekel against the dollar. For example, the dollar depreciatedrelative to the shekel by 9.8% and 1.5% in 2017 and 2016, respectively, while the dollar appreciated relative to the shekel by 8.1% in 2018. If the dollar orEuro cost of our operations in Israel increases, our dollar- and Euro-measured results of operations will be adversely affected. Our operations also could beadversely affected if we are unable to effectively hedge against currency fluctuations in the future. In addition, we expect that our revenues will continue to be denominated in currencies other than the dollar and the shekel, such as the Euro.Therefore, our operating results and cash flows are also subject to fluctuations due to changes in the relative values of the dollar and these foreign currencies.These fluctuations could negatively affect our operating results and could cause them to vary from quarter to quarter. Furthermore, to the extent that we mayreceive revenues from sales in certain countries, such as certain countries in the Asia Pacific region, where our sales are expected to be denominated indollars, a strengthening of the dollar in relation to other currencies could make our products less competitive in those foreign markets and collection ofreceivables more difficult. For further information, see “ITEM 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” elsewhere in this annualreport. Certain of our business practices could become subject to scrutiny by regulatory authorities, as well as to lawsuits brought by private citizens. Failure tocomply with applicable law or an adverse decision in lawsuits may result in adverse consequences to us. The laws governing our conduct in the United States are enforceable by criminal, civil and administrative penalties. Violations of laws such as theFederal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the “FDCA”), the Public Health Service Act, the Federal False Claims Act, provisions of the U.S. Social Security Act,including the “Anti-Kickback Statute,” or any regulations promulgated under their authority, may result in various administrative, civil and criminalsanctions, jail sentences, fines or exclusion from federal and state programs, as may be determined by the U.S. Department of Justice, the Office of InspectorGeneral of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (the “OIG”), the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, other regulatory authorities and thecourts. There can be no assurance that our activities will not come under the scrutiny of regulators and other government authorities or that our practices willnot be found to violate applicable laws, rules and regulations or prompt lawsuits by private citizen “relators” under federal or state false claims laws. The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or receiving any remuneration(including any kickback, bribe or rebate), directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, to induce or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for orrecommending the purchase, lease or order of any good, facility, item or service reimbursable, in whole or in part, under Medicare, Medicaid or other federalhealthcare programs. The term “remuneration” has been broadly interpreted to include anything of value. Although there are a number of statutoryexceptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practicesthat involve remuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. For example, even common business arrangements, such as discounted terms and volume incentives for customers in a position to recommend orchoose drugs and devices for patients, such as physicians and hospitals, can result in substantial legal penalties, including, among other things, exclusionfrom Medicare and Medicaid programs if not carefully structured to comply with applicable requirements. Also, certain business practices, such as paymentof consulting fees to healthcare providers, sponsorship of educational or research grants, charitable donations, interactions with healthcare providers andfinancial support for continuing medical education programs, must be conducted within narrowly prescribed and controlled limits to avoid any possibility ofunlawfully inducing healthcare providers to prescribe or purchase particular products or rewarding past prescribing. Failure to meet all of the requirements ofa particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safe harbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the Anti-Kickback Statute. Instead, thelegality of the arrangement will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts haveinterpreted the statute’s intent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federalhealthcare covered business, the Anti-Kickback Statute has been violated. In addition, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. Moreover, a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of thefederal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the federal civil False Claims Act. Violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute may result in civil monetary penalties up to $100,000 for each violation, plus up to three times the remuneration involved. Civil penaltiesfor such conduct can further be assessed under the federal False Claims Act. Violations can also result in criminal penalties, including criminal fines andimprisonment of up to 10 years. Similarly, violations can result in exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare andMedicaid. 16 Significant enforcement activity has also taken place under federal and state false claims act statutes. Violations of the federal False Claims Act canresult in treble damages, and a penalty of up to $22,363 for each false claim submitted for payment. Several pharmaceutical, device and other healthcarecompanies have been prosecuted under these laws for, among other things, allegedly providing free product to customers with the expectation that thecustomers would bill federal programs for the product. Other companies have been prosecuted for causing false claims to be submitted because of thecompanies’ marketing of products for unapproved, and thus non-covered, uses. The government may further prosecute conduct constituting a false claimunder the criminal False Claims Act. The criminal False Claims Act prohibits the making or presenting of a claim to the government knowing such claim tobe false, fictitious, or fraudulent and, unlike the civil False Claims Act, requires proof of intent to submit a false claim. The federal False Claims Act, as well as certain state false claims acts, also permits relators to file complaints in the name of the United States (and ifapplicable, particular states). These relators may be entitled to receive up to 30% of total recoveries and have been active in pursuing cases againstpharmaceutical companies. Where practices have been found to involve improper incentives to use products, the submission of false claims, or otherimproper conduct, government investigations and assessments of penalties against manufacturers have resulted in substantial damages and fines. In addition,to avoid exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs, many manufacturers have been required to enter into Corporate Integrity Agreementsthat prescribe allowable corporate conduct and impose reporting and disclosure obligations by the manufacturer to the government. Failure to satisfyrequirements under the FDCA can also result in a variety of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, including injunctions or consent decrees thatprescribe allowable corporate conduct. The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes that prohibit, amongother things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private third-partypayors, knowingly and willfully embezzling or stealing from a healthcare benefit program, willfully obstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcareoffense, and knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement inconnection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. Like the Anti-Kickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended theintent standard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of the statute orspecific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and ClinicalHealth (“HITECH”) Act and its implementing regulations, also imposes obligations, including mandatory contractual terms, with respect to safeguarding theprivacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Additionally, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments and transfers of value provided to healthcareprofessionals and/or entities. The Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed annual reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs,devices, biologicals and medical supplies for payments and other transfers of value provided by them, directly or indirectly, to physicians and teachinghospitals, as well as ownership and investment interests held by physicians and their family members. A manufacturer’s failure to submit timely, accuratelyand completely the required information for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests may result in civil monetary penalties of upto an aggregate of $150,000 per year, and up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures.” Any failure to comply could result in significantfines and penalties. 17 In addition, we are subject to analogous state and foreign laws and regulations, such as state anti-kickback and false claims laws, which may apply tosales or marketing arrangements and claims involving healthcare items or services reimbursed by non-governmental third-party payors, including privateinsurers; state and foreign laws that require pharmaceutical companies to comply with the pharmaceutical industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines andthe relevant compliance guidance promulgated by the federal government or otherwise restrict payments that may be made to healthcare providers; state andforeign laws that require drug manufacturers to report information related to payments and other transfers of value to physicians and other healthcareproviders or marketing expenditures; and state and foreign laws governing the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances. Many ofthese laws differ from each other in significant ways and often are not preempted by HIPAA thus complicating compliance efforts. Efforts to ensure that our business arrangements with third parties will comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations may involvesubstantial costs. It is possible that governmental authorities will conclude that our business practices do not comply with current or future statutes,regulations or case law involving applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. If our operations are found to be in violation of any ofthese laws or any other governmental regulations that may apply to us, we may be subject to significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties,including, without limitation, damages, fines, imprisonment, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, such as Medicare andMedicaid, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. If any of the physicians or otherhealthcare providers or entities with whom we expect to do business is found not to be in compliance with applicable laws, it may be subject to criminal, civilor administrative sanctions, including exclusions from participation in government healthcare programs, which could also materially affect our business. As a public company with securities registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are subject tothe U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”). The FCPA and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and theirintermediaries from making improper payments to officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. While we continue to maintain and enhanceinternal policies mandating compliance with these anti-bribery laws, we may operate in parts of the world that have experienced governmental corruption tosome degree and in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices or may require us to interactwith doctors and hospitals, some of which may be state controlled, in a manner that is different than in the United States. Our internal control policies andprocedures may not be sufficient to effectively protect us against reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. Violations of these laws, orallegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cashflows. Laws and regulations affecting government contracts make it more costly and difficult for us to successfully conduct our business. We must comply with numerous laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of government contracts, which canmake it more difficult for us to retain our rights under our BARDA contract. These laws and regulations affect how we conduct business with governmentagencies. Among the most significant government contracting regulations that affect our business are: ·the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) and agency-specific regulations supplemental to the FAR, which comprehensively regulate theprocurement, formation, administration and performance of government contracts; ·business ethics and public integrity obligations, which govern conflicts of interest and the hiring of former government employees, restrict thegranting of gratuities and funding of lobbying activities and include other requirements such as the Anti-Kickback Statute and Foreign CorruptPractices Act; 18 ·export and import control laws and regulations; and ·laws, regulations and executive orders restricting the use and dissemination of information classified for national security purposes and theexportation of certain products and technical data. Any material changes in applicable laws and regulations could restrict our ability to maintain our existing BARDA contract or obtain new contractswith the U.S. federal government. We could be subject to product liability lawsuits, which could result in costly and time-consuming litigation and significant liabilities. The development of biopharmaceutical products involves an inherent risk of product liability claims and associated adverse publicity. Our productsmay be found to be harmful or to contain harmful substances. This exposes us to substantial risk of litigation and liability or may force us to discontinueproduction of certain products. Although we have product liability insurance covering up to $10.0 million for claims in the European Union Israel Argentina,South Korea and Russia the coverage may not insure us against all claims that may be asserted against us. Product liability insurance is costly and oftenlimited in scope. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain or maintain insurance on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect ourselves againstpotential product liability claims that could impede or prevent commercialization of NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates. Furthermore, aproduct liability claim could damage our reputation, whether or not such claims are covered by insurance or are with or without merit. A product liabilityclaim against us or the withdrawal of a product from the market could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. Furthermore,product liability lawsuits, regardless of their success, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to resolve and would divert management’s time andattention, which could seriously harm our business. Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain protection for the intellectual property relating to, or incorporated into, our technologyand products. Our commercial success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection and trade secret protection for our intellectualproperty and proprietary technologies, our products and their uses, as well as our ability to operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others.We rely on a combination of patent, trademark and trade secret laws, non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements, licenses, assignments of inventionagreements and other restrictions on disclosure and use to protect our intellectual property rights. As of December 31, 2018, we had been granted a total of 96 patents and have 37 pending patent applications. The family of patents that coversNexoBrid specifically includes 35 granted patents worldwide and 1 pending national phase application. EscharEx is covered in 30 national phaseapplications. However, there can be no assurance that patent applications relating to our products, processes or technologies will result in patents beingissued, that any patents that have been issued will be adequate to protect our intellectual property or that we will enjoy patent protection for any significantperiod of time. Additionally, any issued patents may be challenged by third parties, and patents that we hold may be found by a judicial authority to beinvalid or unenforceable. Other parties may independently develop similar or competing technology or design around any patents that may be issued to orheld by us. Our current patents will expire or they may otherwise cease to provide meaningful competitive advantage, and we may be unable to adequatelydevelop new technologies and obtain future patent protection to preserve our competitive advantage or avoid adverse effects on our business. Our patent protection may be limited, subjecting us to challenges by competitors. At present, we consider our patents relating to our proteolytic enzyme technology, which underlies NexoBrid, EscharEx and our current pipelineproduct candidates, to be material to the operation of our business as a whole. Our patents which cover NexoBrid claim specific mixtures of proteolyticenzymes, methods of producing such mixtures and methods of treatment using such mixtures. Although the protection achieved is significant for NexoBrid,EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates, when looking at our patents’ ability to block competition, the protection offered by our patents may be, tosome extent, more limited than the protection provided by patents which claim chemical structures that were previously unknown. If our patents coveringNexoBrid in various jurisdictions were subject to a successful challenge or if a competitor were able to successfully design around them, our business andcompetitive advantage could be significantly affected. 19 In addition, the patent landscape in the biotechnology field is highly uncertain and involves complex legal, factual and scientific questions, andchanges in either patent laws or in the interpretation of patent laws in the United States and other countries may diminish the value and strength of ourintellectual property or narrow the scope of our patent protection. In addition, we may fail to apply for or be unable to obtain patents necessary to protect ourtechnology or products or enforce our patents due to lack of information about the exact use of our process by third parties. Even if patents are issued to us,they may be challenged, narrowed, invalidated, held to be unenforceable or circumvented, which could limit our ability to prevent competitors from usingsimilar technology or marketing similar products, or limit the length of time our technologies and products have patent protection. In addition, we are a partyto license agreement with Mark Klein, that imposes various obligations upon us as a licensee, including the obligation to make milestone and royaltypayments contingent on the sales of NexoBrid. If we fail to comply with these obligations, the licensor may terminate the license, in which event we mightnot be able to market any product that is covered by the licensed intellectual property, including NexoBrid. In order to preserve and enforce our patent and other intellectual property rights, we may need to assert claims or file lawsuits against third parties.Such lawsuits could entail significant costs to us and divert our management’s attention from developing and commercializing our products. Lawsuits mayultimately be unsuccessful and may also subject us to counterclaims and cause our intellectual property rights to be challenged, narrowed, invalidated orheld to be unenforceable. The timing of a patent application, grant, and expiration may put us at a disadvantage compared to our competitors. Our material patents also may not afford us protection against competitors with similar technology. Because patent applications in the United Statesand many other jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months after their filing, if at all, and because publications of discoveries in scientificliterature often lag behind actual discoveries, neither we nor our licensors can be certain that we or they were the first to make the inventions claimed in ouror their issued patents or pending patent applications, or that we or they were the first to file for protection of the inventions set forth in such patentapplications. As a result, the patents we own and license may be invalidated in the future, and the patent applications we own and license may not be granted.For example, if a third party has also filed a patent application covering an invention similar to one covered in one of our patent applications, we may berequired to participate in an adversarial proceeding known as an “interference proceeding,” declared by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or its foreigncounterparts, to determine priority of invention. The costs of these proceedings could be substantial and our efforts in them could be unsuccessful, resultingin a loss of our anticipated patent position. In addition, if a third party prevails in such a proceeding and obtains an issued patent, we may be prevented frompracticing technology or marketing products covered by that patent. Additionally, patents and patent applications owned by third parties may prevent usfrom pursuing certain opportunities such as entering into specific markets or developing certain products. Finally, we may choose to enter into markets wherecertain competitors have patents or patent protection over technology that may impede our ability to compete effectively. We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights in all jurisdictions. Effective protection of our intellectual property rights may be unavailable or limited in some countries, and even if available, we may fail to pursueor obtain necessary intellectual property protection in such countries, including because filing, prosecuting, maintaining and defending patents on productcandidates in all countries throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive. In addition, the legal systems of certain countries do not favor theaggressive enforcement of patents and other intellectual property rights, and the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect our rights to the same extentas the laws of the United States. As a result, our intellectual property may not provide us with sufficient rights to exclude others from commercializingproducts similar or identical to ours. Competitors may use our technologies in jurisdictions where we have not obtained patent protection to develop theirown products, and we may be unable to prevent such competitors from importing such infringing products into territories where we have patent protectionbut where enforcement is not as strong as in the United States or into jurisdictions in which we do not have patent protection. These products may competewith our product candidates and our patents and other intellectual property rights may not be effective or sufficient to prevent them from competing in thosejurisdictions. 20 Our currently issued NexoBrid Family patents are nominally due to expire at various dates between 2025 and 2029. However, because of theextensive time required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potential product, and although such delays may entitle us to patent termextensions, it is possible that, before NexoBrid can be commercialized in additional international jurisdictions and/or before any of our future products canbe commercialized, any related patent may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization, thereby reducing any advantages ofthe patent. The international PCT patent applications relating to EscharEx were filed on January 30, 2017. National phase applications corresponding tothese PCT applications were filed in several jurisdictions and if granted, the expiration date of these patents would be January 30, 2037, absent patent-termadjustment and/or extensions. Our pending and future patent applications may not lead to the issuance of patents or, if issued, the patents may not be issuedin a form that will provide us with any competitive advantage. We also cannot guarantee that: ·any of our present or future patents or patent claims or other intellectual property rights will not lapse or be invalidated, circumvented,challenged or abandoned; ·our intellectual property rights will provide competitive advantages or prevent competitors from making or selling competing products; ·our ability to assert our intellectual property rights against potential competitors or to settle current or future disputes will not be limited by ouragreements with third parties; ·any of our pending or future patent applications will be issued or have the coverage originally sought; ·our intellectual property rights will be enforced in jurisdictions where competition may be intense or where legal protection may be weak; or ·we will not lose the ability to assert our intellectual property rights against, or to license our technology to, others and collect royalties or otherpayments. We may be unable to identify all past or future unauthorized uses of our intellectual property. Additionally, unauthorized use of our intellectual property may have occurred or may occur in the future. Any failure to identify unauthorized useof, and otherwise adequately protect, our intellectual property could adversely affect our business, including by reducing the demand for our products. Anyreported adverse events involving counterfeit products that purport to be our products could harm our reputation and the sale of our products. Moreover, ifwe are required to commence litigation related to unauthorized use, whether as a plaintiff or defendant, such litigation would be time-consuming, force us toincur significant costs and divert our attention and the efforts of our management and other employees, which could, in turn, result in lower revenue andhigher expenses. In addition to patented technology, we rely on our unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, processes and know-how. We rely on proprietary information, such as trade secrets, know-how and confidential information, to protect intellectual property that may not bepatentable or that we believe is best protected by means that do not require public disclosure. We generally seek to protect this proprietary information byentering into confidentiality agreements, or consulting, services or employment agreements that contain non-disclosure and non-use provisions with ouremployees, consultants, contractors, scientific advisors and third parties. However, we may fail to enter into the necessary agreements, and even if enteredinto, these agreements may be breached or otherwise fail to prevent disclosure, third-party infringement or misappropriation of our proprietary information,may be limited as to their term and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure or use of proprietary information. We havelimited control over the protection of trade secrets used by our suppliers and service providers and could lose future trade secret protection if anyunauthorized disclosure of such information occurs. In addition, our proprietary information may otherwise become known or be independently developedby our competitors or other third parties. To the extent that our employees, consultants, contractors, scientific advisors and other third parties use intellectualproperty owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in related or resulting know-how and inventions. Costly and time-consuminglitigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our and relevant third parties’ proprietary rights and failure to obtain or maintainprotection for our proprietary information could adversely affect our competitive business position. In addition, if a third party is able to establish that we areusing their proprietary information without their permission, we may be required to obtain a license to such information or, if such a license is not available,re-design our products to avoid any such unauthorized use or temporarily delay or permanently stop manufacturing or sales of the affected products.Furthermore, laws regarding trade secret rights in certain markets where we operate may afford little or no protection to our trade secrets. 21 We also rely on physical and electronic security measures to protect our proprietary information, but we cannot provide assurance that these securitymeasures will not be breached or will provide adequate protection for our property. There is a risk that third parties may obtain and improperly utilize ourproprietary information to our competitive disadvantage. We may not be able to detect or prevent the unauthorized use of such information or takeappropriate and timely steps to enforce our intellectual property rights. Some of our employees were previously employed at universities or other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies, including potentialcompetitors. While we take steps to prevent our employees from using the proprietary information or know-how of others in their work for us, we may besubject to claims that we or these employees have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed intellectual property, trade secrets or other proprietaryinformation of any such employee’s former employer. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims and, even if we are successful in defendingourselves, could result in substantial costs to us or be distracting to our management. If we fail to defend any such claims successfully, in addition to payingmonetary damages, we may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel. If we are unable to protect our trademarks from infringement, our business prospects may be harmed. We own trademarks that identify “MediWound,” “NexoBrid” and “EscharEx,” among others, and have registered these trademarks in certain keymarkets. Although we take steps to monitor the possible infringement or misuse of our trademarks, it is possible that third parties may infringe, dilute orotherwise violate our trademark rights. Any unauthorized use of our trademarks could harm our reputation or commercial interests. In addition, ourenforcement against third-party infringers or violators may be unduly expensive and time-consuming, and the outcome may be an inadequate remedy. We may be subject to claims that we infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of third parties. Our development, marketing or sale of NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates may infringe or be accused of infringing one or moreclaims of an issued patent or may fall within the scope of one or more claims in a published patent application that may be subsequently issued and to whichwe do not hold a license or other rights. We may also be subject to claims that we are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating other intellectualproperty rights, such as trademarks, copyrights or trade secrets. Third parties could therefore bring claims against us or our strategic partners that would causeus to incur substantial expenses, including litigation costs or costs associated with settlement, and, if successful against us, could cause us to pay substantialdamages. Further, if such a claim were brought against us, we could be forced to temporarily delay or permanently stop manufacturing or sales of NexoBrid,EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates that are the subject of the suit. If we are found to be infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the patent or other intellectual property rights of a third party, or in order toavoid or settle claims, we may choose or be required to seek a license from a third party and be required to pay license fees or royalties or both, which couldbe substantial. These licenses may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Even if we were able to obtain a license, the rights may be nonexclusive,which could result in our competitors gaining access to the same intellectual property. Ultimately, we could be prevented from commercializing a product, orbe forced to cease some aspect of our business operations, if, as a result of actual or threatened claims, we or our strategic partners are unable to enter intolicenses on acceptable terms. There have been substantial litigation and other proceedings regarding patent and other intellectual property rights in the pharmaceutical andbiotechnology industries. In addition, to the extent that we gain greater visibility and market exposure as a public company in the United States, we face agreater risk of being involved in such litigation. In addition to infringement claims against us, we may become a party to other patent litigation and otherproceedings, including interference, opposition, re-examination and similar proceedings before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and its foreigncounterparts, regarding intellectual property rights with respect to NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline product candidates. The cost to us of any patentlitigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. A negative outcome could result in liability for monetary damages,including treble damages and attorneys’ fees if, for example, we are found to have willfully infringed a patent. A finding of infringement could prevent usfrom developing, marketing or selling a product or force us to cease some or all of our business operations. Some of our competitors may be able to sustainthe costs of such litigation or proceedings more effectively than we can because of their substantially greater financial resources. Uncertainties resulting fromthe initiation and continuation of patent litigation or other proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our ability to compete in the marketplace,and patent litigation and other proceedings may also absorb significant management time. 22 We are subject to extensive environmental, health and safety, and other laws and regulations. Our business involves the controlled use of chemicals. The risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials cannot be eliminated. Ifan accident, spill or release of any such chemicals or substances occurs, we could be held liable for resulting damages, including for investigation,remediation and monitoring of the contamination, including natural resource damages, the costs of which could be substantial. We are also subject tonumerous environmental, health and workplace safety laws and regulations, including those governing laboratory procedures. Although we maintainworkers’ compensation insurance to cover the costs and expenses that may be incurred because of injuries to our employees resulting from the use of thesematerials, this insurance may not provide adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Additional or more stringent laws and regulations affecting ouroperations may be adopted in the future. We may incur substantial capital costs and operating expenses and may be required to obtain consents to complywith any of these or certain other laws or regulations and the terms and conditions of any permits required pursuant to such laws and regulations, includingcosts to install new or updated pollution control equipment, modify our operations or perform other corrective actions at our respective facilities. In addition,fines and penalties may be imposed for noncompliance with environmental, health and safety and other laws and regulations or for the failure to have, orcomply with the terms and conditions of, required environmental or other permits or consents. We are subject to foreign data privacy and security laws. We are also subject to data privacy and security laws in the E.U. as well as the EEA, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data ProtectionRegulation, or GDPR) in relation to our collection, control, processing, sharing, disclosure and other use of personal data (i.e. data relating to an identifiableliving individual). The GDPR is directly applicable in each E.U. and EEA Member State, however, it provides that E.U. and EEA Member States mayintroduce further conditions, including limitations, which could limit our ability to collect, control, process, share, disclose and otherwise use personal data(including health and medical information), and/or could cause our compliance costs to increase, ultimately having an adverse impact on our business. TheGDPR imposes a strict data protection compliance regime including with regard to engaging third party processors and cross-border transfers of personal dataout of the E.U. and EEA. Fines for certain breaches of the GDPR are significant: up to the greater of EUR 20 million or 4% of total global annual turnover. Inaddition to the foregoing, a breach of the GDPR could result in regulatory investigations, reputational damage, orders to cease/ change our processing of ourdata, enforcement notices, assessment notices (for a compulsory audit), as well potential civil claims including class action type litigation where individualssuffer harm. Under applicable employment laws, we may not be able to enforce covenants not to compete. We generally enter into non-competition agreements with our employees. These agreements prohibit our employees, if they cease working for us,from competing directly with us or working for our competitors or clients for a limited period. We may be unable to enforce these agreements under the lawsof the jurisdictions in which our employees work and it may be difficult for us to restrict our competitors from benefitting from the expertise our formeremployees or consultants developed while working for us. For example, Israeli labor courts have required employers seeking to enforce non-competeundertakings of a former employee to demonstrate that the competitive activities of the former employee will harm one of a limited number of materialinterests of the employer which have been recognized by the courts, such as the protection of a company’s trade secrets or other intellectual property. We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees, which could result in litigation andadversely affect our business. A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed for us by our employees in the course of their employment. Under the IsraeliPatent Law, 5727-1967, or the Patent Law, inventions conceived by an employee in the course and as a result of or arising from his or her employment with acompany are regarded as “service inventions,” which belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement between the employee and employer giving theemployee proprietary rights. The Patent Law also provides under Section 134 that if there is no agreement between an employer and an employee as towhether the employee is entitled to consideration for service inventions, and to what extent and under which conditions, the Israeli Compensation andRoyalties Committee, or the Committee, a body constituted under the Patent Law, shall determine these issues. Section 135 of the Patent law provides criteriafor assisting the Committee in making its decisions. According to case law handed down by the Committee, an employee’s right to receive consideration forservice inventions is a personal right and is entirely separate from the proprietary rights in such invention. Therefore, this right must be explicitly waived bythe employee. A decision handed down in May 2014 by the Committee clarifies that the right to receive consideration under Section 134 can be waived andthat such waiver can be made orally, in writing or by behavior like any other contract. The Committee will examine, on a case by case basis, the generalcontractual framework between the parties, using interpretation rules of the general Israeli contract laws. Further, the Committee has not yet determined onespecific formula for calculating this remuneration, nor the criteria or circumstances under which an employee’s waiver of his right to remuneration will bedisregarded. Similarly, it remains unclear whether waivers by employees in their employment agreements of the alleged right to receive consideration forservice inventions should be declared as void being a depriving provision in a standard contract. We generally enter into assignment-of-inventionagreements with our employees pursuant to which such individuals assign to us all rights to any inventions created in the scope of their employment orengagement with us. Although our employees have agreed to assign to us service invention rights and have specifically waived their right to receive anyspecial remuneration for such service inventions beyond their regular salary and benefits, we may face claims demanding remuneration in consideration forassigned inventions. As a consequence of such claims, we could be required to pay additional remuneration or royalties to our current or former employees orbe forced to litigate such claims, which could negatively affect our business. 23 The United Kingdom’s impending departure from the European Union could adversely affect our business. The United Kingdom held a referendum in June 2016 in which a majority of voters voted to exit the European Union, which is generally referred toas Brexit. Negotiations are continuing to determine the future terms of the United Kingdom’s relationship with the European Union, including, among otherthings, the terms of trade between the United Kingdom and the European Union as well as other world trading partners. The effects of Brexit will depend onany agreements the United Kingdom makes to retain access to European Union markets either during a transitional period or more permanently. In addition,Brexit could materially impact the regulatory regime with respect to the approval of our product candidates in the United Kingdom or the European Unionand could require us to obtain separate approvals for our product candidates in the United Kingdom and the European Union. Any delay in obtaining, or aninability to obtain, any regulatory approvals, as a result of Brexit or otherwise, would prevent us from commercializing our product candidates in the UnitedKingdom and/or the European Union and restrict our ability to generate revenue and achieve and sustain profitability. If any of these outcomes occur, wemay be forced to restrict or delay efforts to seek regulatory approval in the United Kingdom and/or European Union for our product candidates, which couldsignificantly and materially harm our business. Brexit could adversely affect European and worldwide economic and market conditions and could contributeto instability in global financial and foreign exchange markets, including volatility in the value of the sterling and euro. Any of these effects of Brexit, andothers we cannot anticipate, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. 24 Risks Related to an Investment in Our Ordinary Shares The market price of our ordinary shares may be subject to fluctuation and you could lose all or part of your investment. Our ordinary shares were first offered publicly in our IPO in March 2014 at a price of $14.00 per share, and our ordinary shares have subsequentlytraded as high as 18.16 per share and as low as $3.95 per share through March 24, 2019. The market price of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Marketmay fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to: ·actual or anticipated variations in our and our competitors’ results of operations and financial condition; ·market acceptance of our products; ·general economic and market conditions and other factors, including factors unrelated to our operating performance; ·the mix of products that we sell and related services that we provide; ·changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts, if our ordinary shares continue to be covered by analysts; ·publication of the results of preclinical or clinical trials for NexoBrid, EscharEx or any of our pipeline product candidates; ·failure by us to achieve a publicly announced milestone; ·delays between our expenditures to develop and market new or enhanced products and the generation of sales from those products; ·development of technological innovations or new competitive products by others; ·announcements of technological innovations or new products by us; ·regulatory developments and the decisions of regulatory authorities as to the marketing of our current products or the approval or rejection ofnew or modified products; ·developments concerning intellectual property rights, including our involvement in litigation; ·changes in our expenditures to develop, acquire or license new products, technologies or businesses; ·changes in our expenditures to promote our products; ·our sale or proposed sale, or the sale by our significant shareholders, of our ordinary shares or other securities in the future; ·changes in key personnel; ·success or failure of our research and development projects or those of our competitors; and ·the trading volume of our ordinary shares. 25 These factors and any corresponding price fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares and result insubstantial losses being incurred by our investors. In the past, following periods of market volatility, public company shareholders have often institutedsecurities class action litigation. If we were involved in securities litigation, it could impose a substantial cost upon us and divert the resources and attentionof our management from our business. If equity research analysts do not continue to publish research or reports about our business or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade ourordinary shares, the price of our ordinary shares could decline. The trading market for our ordinary shares will rely in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and ourbusiness, if at all. We do not have control over these analysts and we do not have commitments from them to write research reports about us. The price of ourordinary shares could decline if no research reports are published about us or our business, or if one or more equity research analysts downgrades our ordinaryshares or if those analysts issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business. Future sales of our ordinary shares could reduce the market price of our ordinary shares. If we or our existing shareholders, particularly certain of our directors or their affiliates or certain of our executive officers, sell a substantial numberof our ordinary shares in the public market, the market price of our ordinary shares could decrease significantly. The perception in the public market that weor our shareholders might sell our ordinary shares could also depress the market price of our ordinary shares and could impair our future ability to obtaincapital, especially through an offering of equity securities. We have made significant offerings of our ordinary shares in the past and may do so again in the future. For example, on March 7, 2016, the SECdeclared effective our shelf registration statement on Form F-3, which registered the resale of 11,640,827 shares subject to registration rights. All shares soldpursuant to an offering covered by such registration statement (or a subsequent shelf registration that we file to replace it after it expired) will be freelytransferable. See “ITEM 7.B. Related Party Transactions—Registration Rights Agreement.” In September 2017, we completed an underwritten public offeringof 5,037,664 of our ordinary shares. Sales by us or our shareholders of a substantial number of ordinary shares in the public market could cause the marketprice of our ordinary shares to decline or could impair our ability to raise capital through a future sale of, or pay for acquisitions using, our equity securities. In addition to these registration rights, as of March 15, 2019, 2,409,082 ordinary shares were subject to outstanding option and RSU awards grantedto employees and office holders under our share incentive plans, including 1,475,457 ordinary shares issuable under currently exercisable share options. OnApril 28, 2014, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 registering the issuance of up to 3,032,742 ordinary shares issuable under our share incentiveplans, which amount included 2,178,806 ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of option awards previously granted under our 2003 Israeli Share OptionPlan and 853,936 ordinary shares issuable under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. On January 1, 2015, 2018 and 2019, the shares available for issuance underour 2014 Equity Incentive Plan automatically increased by 431,006, 540,955 and 543,577 shares, respectively. As of March 15, 2019, 3,412,194 sharesremained available for issuance under our share incentive plans, which amount includes 1,272,943 ordinary shares subject to outstanding awards. Sharesincluded in such registration statement may be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, except for shares held by affiliates who have certainrestrictions on their ability to sell. The significant share ownership position of Clal Biotechnology Industries Ltd. may limit your ability to influence corporate matters. As of March 15, 2018, Clal Biotechnology Industries Ltd. (“CBI”), beneficially owns or controls, directly and indirectly, 34.7% of our issued andoutstanding ordinary shares. Accordingly, CBI is able to significantly influence the outcome of matters required to be submitted to our shareholders forapproval, including decisions relating to the election of our board of directors and the outcome of any proposed merger or consolidation of the company.CBI’s interests may not be consistent with those of our other shareholders. In addition, CBI’s significant interest in us may discourage third parties fromseeking to acquire control of us, which may adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares. 26 We have never paid cash dividends on our share capital, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our share capital, nor do we anticipate paying any cash dividends on our share capital in theforeseeable future. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result,capital appreciation, if any, of our ordinary shares will be an investor’s sole source of gain for the foreseeable future. In addition, Israeli law limits our abilityto declare and pay dividends, and may subject our dividends to Israeli withholding taxes. See “ITEM 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other FinancialInformation—Dividend Policy,” “ITEM 10.B. Articles of Association—Dividend and liquidation rights” and “ITEM 10.E. Taxation—Israeli TaxConsiderations and Government Programs.” As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted, and intend, to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of otherwise applicableSEC and Nasdaq requirements. As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to, and do, follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwiserequired under the Nasdaq Stock Market for domestic U.S. issuers. For instance, we follow home country practice in Israel with regard to the (i) quorumrequirement for shareholder meetings, (ii) independent director oversight of director nominations requirement and (iii) independence requirement for theboard of directors. See “ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance.” We may in the future elect to follow home country practices in Israel with regard to other mattersas well, such as the formation and composition of the nominating and corporate governance committee, separate executive sessions of independent directorsand the requirement to obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events (such as for the establishment or amendment of certain equity-basedcompensation plans, issuances that will result in a change of control of the company, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a20% or more interest in the company and certain acquisitions of the stock or assets of another company). Following our home country governance practicesas opposed to the requirements that would otherwise apply to a U.S. company listed on the Nasdaq Global Market may provide less protection to you thanwhat is accorded to investors under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules applicable to domestic U.S. issuers. See “ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance.” As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to the provisions of Regulation FD or U.S. proxy rules and are exempt from filing certain Exchange Actreports. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxystatements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained inSection 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file annual and current reports and financial statements with theSEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, and we are generally exempt from filingquarterly reports with the SEC under the Exchange Act. Moreover, we are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which prohibits the selectivedisclosure of material nonpublic information to, among others, broker-dealers and holders of a company’s securities under circumstances in which it isreasonably foreseeable that the holder will trade in the company’s securities on the basis of the information. Even though we intend to comply voluntarilywith Regulation FD, these exemptions and leniencies will reduce the frequency and scope of information and protections to which you are entitled as aninvestor. For so long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer, we are not required to comply with the proxy rules applicable to U.S. domestic companies,including the requirement applicable to emerging growth companies to disclose the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and other two most highlycompensated executive officers on an individual, rather than an aggregate, basis. Nevertheless, the regulations promulgated under the Israeli Companies Lawrequire us to disclose the annual compensation of our five most highly compensated officers on an individual, rather than on an aggregate, basis. See “ITEM6.B. Compensation.” Under the Companies Law regulations, this disclosure is required to be included in the proxy statement for our annual meeting ofshareholders each year, which we furnish to the SEC under cover of a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K. Because of that disclosure requirementunder Israeli law, we are also including such information in this annual report, pursuant to the disclosure requirements of Form 20-F. 27 We would lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our outstanding ordinary shares are held of record by U.S. shareholders and we fail tomeet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. Although we have elected to comply with certain U.S. regulatoryprovisions, our loss of foreign private issuer status would make such provisions mandatory. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securitieslaws as a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher. If we lose our foreign private issuer status, we will be required to file periodic reports andregistration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer.We would also be required to follow U.S. proxy disclosure requirements, including the requirement to disclose more detailed information about thecompensation of our senior executive officers on an individual basis. We may also be required to modify certain of our policies to comply with acceptedgovernance practices associated with U.S. domestic issuers. Such conversion and modifications will involve additional costs. In addition, we would lose ourability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on U.S. stock exchanges that are available to foreign private issuers. We are an “emerging growth company” and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our ordinary sharesless attractive to investors. We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), and we may take advantage ofcertain exemptions from various requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. Most of suchrequirements relate to disclosures that we would only be required to make if we cease to be a foreign private issuer in the future. Nevertheless, as a foreignprivate issuer that is an emerging growth company, we will not be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of theSarbanes-Oxley Act for up to five fiscal years after the date of our initial public offering. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of:(a) the last day of our fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.07 billion; (b) December 31, 2019, the last day of our fiscalyear following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering; (c) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issuedmore than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; or (d) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act. When we areno longer deemed to be an emerging growth company, we will not be entitled to the exemptions provided in the JOBS Act discussed above. We cannotpredict if investors will find our ordinary shares less attractive as a result of our reliance on exemptions under the JOBS Act. If some investors find ourordinary shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our ordinary shares and our share price may be more volatile. If we are unable to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or if our internal control over financial reporting or our disclosurecontrols and procedures are not effective, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and the completeness of the reports we furnish or file with the SEC,the reliability of our financial statements may be questioned and our share price may suffer. We are required to comply with the internal control, evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). Pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we are required to furnish a report by management on the effectiveness of ourinternal control over financial reporting. Additionally, pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, unless we lose our status as an “emerginggrowth company” under the JOBS Act prior to the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of our IPO occurred, we will not be required to obtainan auditor attestation under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. To maintain the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting, we expect that we will needto continue to enhance existing, and implement new, financial reporting and management systems, procedures and controls to manage our businesseffectively and support our growth in the future. The process of evaluating our internal control over financial reporting requires an investment of substantialtime and resources, including by our Chief Financial Officer and other members of our senior management. The determination and any remedial actionsrequired could divert internal resources and take a significant amount of time and effort to complete and could result in us incurring additional costs that wedid not anticipate, including the hiring of outside consultants. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404, any failure of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our stated results ofoperations and harm our reputation. As a result, we may experience higher than anticipated operating expenses, as well as higher independent auditor feesduring and after the implementation of these changes. If we are unable to implement any of the required changes to our internal control over financialreporting effectively or efficiently, it could adversely affect our operations, financial reporting or results of operations. Further, if our internal controls overfinancial reporting are not effective, the reliability of our financial statements may be questioned and our share price may suffer. 28 Our U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse tax consequences if we are characterized as a passive foreign investment company. Generally, if for any taxable year 75% or more of our gross income is passive income, or at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our assets(which may be determined in part by the market value of our ordinary shares, which is subject to change) are held for the production of, or produce, passiveincome, we would be characterized as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Based on our current estimates ofour gross income and gross assets and the nature of our business, we do not believe we were classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31,2018. There can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for the current or any future taxable year. PFIC status is determined as of the end of thetaxable year and depends on a number of factors, including the value of a corporation’s assets and the amount and type of its gross income. Furthermore,because the value of our gross assets is likely to be determined in large part by reference to our market capitalization, a decline in the value of our ordinaryshares may result in our becoming a PFIC. If we are characterized as a PFIC, our U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse tax consequences, including havinggains realized on the sale of our ordinary shares treated as ordinary income, rather than as capital gain, the loss of the preferential rate that may be applicableto dividends received on our ordinary shares by individuals who are U.S. Holders (as defined in “ITEM 10.E. Taxation—United States Federal IncomeTaxation”), and having interest charges apply to distributions by us and the proceeds of share sales. Certain elections exist that may alleviate some of theadverse consequences of PFIC status and would result in an alternative treatment (such as mark-to-market treatment) of our ordinary shares. However, we donot intend to provide the information necessary for U.S. holders to make qualified electing fund elections if we are classified as a PFIC. See “ITEM 10.E.Taxation—United States Federal Income Taxation—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations.” Risks Primarily Related to our Operations in Israel Our headquarters, manufacturing and other significant operations are located in Israel and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by political,economic and military instability in Israel and by conflicts between Israel and other countries. Our headquarters, manufacturing and research and development facilities are located in Yavne, Israel. In addition, the majority of our keyemployees, officers and directors are residents of Israel. In recent years, there has been political, economic, and military instability in Israel, includinghostilities between Israel and its Arab neighbors, Hezbollah (an Islamist militia and political group in Lebanon) and Hamas (an Islamist militia and politicalgroup in the Gaza strip). Recent political uprisings, social unrest and violence in various countries in the Middle East and North Africa, including Israel’s neighbors Egyptand Syria, are affecting the political stability in those regions. This instability may lead to deterioration of the political relationships that exist between Israeland these countries and have raised concerns regarding security in the region. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and is widely believed to bedeveloping nuclear weapons, and has been expanding its influence in Syria and in Lebanon through Hezbollah and other proxy terrorist groups. AlthoughIran’s activities have not directly affected the political and economic conditions in Israel, Iran’s purpose is widely believed to take control of the MiddleEast, including Israel. These events and any future political, economic and military instability have the potential to interrupt our operations by damaging ourfacilities or preventing our employees, officers and directors from working. Such interruptions or stoppages may result in a material adverse effect on ourbusiness, operations and results of operations. Our commercial insurance may leave us subject to a risk of a loss if a terrorist attack or act of war occurs. Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the security situation in the Middle East. Thereinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war that the Israeli government is currently committed to covering mightnot be maintained or, if maintained, might not be sufficient to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have amaterial adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflict involving Israel could adversely affect our operations and results of operations. 29 Our operations may be disrupted by the obligation of our employees to perform military service. As of December 31, 2018, we had 61 employees based in Israel, certain of which may be called upon to perform up to 54 days of military service ineach three-year period (and in the case of non-officer commanders or officers, up to 70 or 84 days, respectively, in each three-year period) of military reserveduty until they reach the age of 40 (and in some cases, depending on their specific military profession, up to 45 or even 49 years of age). In certain emergencycircumstances, these employees may be called to immediate and unlimited active duty. Our operations could be disrupted by the absence of a significantnumber of employees related to military service, which could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations. Boycotts and various Middle Eastern business restrictions in the region may adversely impact our ability to operate sell our products. Several countries, principally in the Middle East, restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, and additional countries may imposerestrictions on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies whether as a result of hostilities in the region or otherwise. In addition, there have beenincreased efforts by activists to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods based on Israeli government policies. Such actions, particularly ifthey become more widespread, may adversely impact our ability to sell our products. Provisions of Israeli law and our articles of association may delay, prevent or otherwise impede a merger with, or an acquisition of, us, even when theterms of such a transaction are favorable to us and our shareholders. Israeli corporate law regulates mergers, requires tender offers for acquisitions of shares above specified thresholds, requires special approvals fortransactions involving directors, officers or significant shareholders and regulates other matters that may be relevant to such types of transactions. Forexample, a tender offer for all of a company’s issued and outstanding shares can only be completed if the acquirer receives positive responses from theholders of at least 95% of the issued share capital. Completion of the tender offer also requires approval of a majority of the offerees that do not have apersonal interest in the tender offer, unless, following consummation of the tender offer, the acquirer would hold at least 98% of the company’s outstandingshares. Furthermore, the shareholders, including those who indicated their acceptance of the tender offer, may, at any time within six months following thecompletion of the tender offer, petition an Israeli court to alter the consideration for the acquisition, unless the acquirer stipulated in its tender offer that ashareholder that accepts the offer may not seek such appraisal rights. See “ITEM 10.B. Articles of Association—Acquisitions Under Israeli law” for additionalinformation. Furthermore, Israeli tax considerations may make potential transactions unappealing to us or to our shareholders whose country of residence doesnot have a tax treaty with Israel exempting such shareholders from Israeli tax. For example, Israeli tax law does not recognize tax-free share exchanges to thesame extent as U.S. tax law. With respect to mergers, Israeli tax law allows for tax deferral in certain circumstances but makes the deferral contingent on thefulfillment of a number of conditions, including, in some cases, a holding period of two years from the date of the transaction during which sales anddispositions of shares of the participating companies are subject to certain restrictions. Moreover, with respect to certain share swap transactions, the taxdeferral is limited in time, and when such time expires, the tax becomes payable even if no disposition of the shares has occurred. We received Israeli government grants for certain research and development activities. The terms of those grants require us to satisfy specified conditionsand to pay penalties in addition to repayment of the grants upon certain events. Our research and development efforts were and are financed in part through grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (“IIA”), formerly operatingas the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist (the “OCS”). The total gross amount of grants actually received by us from the IIA, including accrued LIBORinterest and net of royalties actually paid as of December 31, 2018, totaled approximately $13.7 million and the amortized cost (using the interest method) ofthe liability as of that date totaled approximately $7.7 million. As of December 31, 2018, we had accrued and paid royalties to the IIA $0.3. We expect toreceive additional grants from the IIA and we applied for further grants for 2019. However, as the funds available for IIA grants out of the annual budget of theState of Israel have been reduced in the past and may be further reduced in the future, we cannot predict whether we will be entitled to any future grants, orthe amounts of any such grants. 30 The grants are repayable by payment of royalties from the sale of products developed as part of the programs for which grants were received. Ourobligation to pay these royalties is contingent on our actual sale of such products and services. In the absence of such sales, no payment of such royalties isrequired. Even following full repayment of any IIA grants, we must nevertheless continue to comply with the requirements of the Encouragement of Research,Development and Technological Innovation in the Industry Law, 5744-1984 (formerly known as the Law for the Encouragement of Industrial Research andDevelopment, 5744-1984), and related regulations (collectively, the “Innovation Law”). When a company develops know-how, technology or products usingIIA grants, the terms of these grants and the Innovation Law restrict the transfer outside of Israel of such know-how, and the manufacturing or manufacturingrights of such products, technologies or know-how, without the prior approval of the IIA. Therefore, if aspects of our technologies are deemed to have beendeveloped with IIA funding, the discretionary approval of an IIA committee would be required for any transfer to third parties outside of Israel of know-howor manufacturing or manufacturing rights related to those aspects of such technologies. We may not receive those approvals. Furthermore, the IIA may imposecertain conditions on any arrangement under which it permits us to transfer technology or development out of Israel. The transfer of IIA-supported technology or know-how or manufacturing or manufacturing rights related to aspects of such technologies outside ofIsrael may involve the payment of significant penalties and other amounts, depending upon the value of the transferred technology or know-how, the amountof IIA support, the time of completion of the IIA-supported research project and other factors. If our products are manufactured outside of Israel, assuming wereceive prior approval from the IIA for the foreign manufacturing, we may be required to pay increased royalties. The increase in royalties depends on themanufacturing volume that is performed outside of Israel. These restrictions and requirements for payment may impair our ability to sell our technologyassets outside of Israel or to outsource or transfer development or manufacturing activities with respect to any product or technology outside of Israel.Furthermore, the consideration available to our shareholders in a transaction involving the transfer outside of Israel of technology or know-how developedwith IIA funding (such as a merger or similar transaction) may be reduced by any amounts that we are required to pay to the IIA. It may be difficult to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court against us, our officers and directors or the Israeli experts named in this annual report inIsrael or the United States, to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our officers and directors and these experts. We are incorporated in Israel. All of our executive officers and three of our directors listed in this annual report reside outside of the United States,and most of our assets and most of the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, a judgment obtained against us, or any ofthese persons, including a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, may not be collectible in the United States andmay not be enforced by an Israeli court. It also may be difficult for you to effect service of process on these persons in the United States or to assert U.S.securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of U.S. securities lawsreasoning that Israel is not the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it maydetermine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be provenas a fact by expert witnesses, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There islittle binding case law in Israel that addresses the matters described above. As a result of the difficulty associated with enforcing a judgment against us inIsrael, you may not be able to collect any damages awarded by either a U.S. or foreign court. Your rights and responsibilities as a shareholder will be governed by Israeli law, which differs in some material respects from the rights andresponsibilities of shareholders of U.S. companies. Since we are incorporated under Israeli law, the rights and responsibilities of our shareholders are governed by our articles of association and Israelilaw. These rights and responsibilities differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in U.S.-based corporations. In particular, ashareholder of an Israeli company has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising its rights and performing its obligations towards thecompany and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing its power in the company, including, among other things, in voting at the general meeting ofshareholders on certain matters, such as an amendment to the company’s articles of association, an increase of the company’s authorized share capital, amerger of the company and approval of related party transactions that require shareholder approval. A shareholder also has a general duty to refrain fromdiscriminating against other shareholders. In addition, a controlling shareholder or a shareholder who knows that it possesses the power to determine theoutcome of a shareholders’ vote or to appoint or prevent the appointment of an office holder in the company or has another power with respect to thecompany, has a duty to act in fairness towards the company. However, Israeli law does not define the substance of this duty of fairness. See “ITEM 6.C. BoardPractices.” Some of the parameters and implications of the provisions that govern shareholder behavior have not been clearly determined. These provisionsmay be interpreted to impose additional obligations and liabilities on our shareholders that are not typically imposed on shareholders of U.S. corporations. Additionally, the quorum requirements for meetings of our shareholders are lower than is customary for domestic issuers. As permitted under theCompanies Law, pursuant to our articles of association, the quorum required for an ordinary meeting of shareholders will consist of at least two shareholderspresent in person, by proxy or by other voting instrument in accordance with the Companies Law, who hold at least 25% of our outstanding ordinary shares(and in an adjourned meeting, with some exceptions, any number of shareholders). For an adjourned meeting at which a quorum is not present, the meetingmay generally proceed irrespective of the number of shareholders present at the end of half an hour following the time fixed for the meeting. 31 Item 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY A. History and Development of the Company Our History MediWound Ltd. (“MediWound”) was founded in January 2000 with the goal of developing, manufacturing and commercializing novel products toaddress unmet needs in the fields of severe burns as well as chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds and connective tissue disorders.

Principal Capital Expenditures See “ITEM 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources.” B.Business Overview We are a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing novel therapeutics products toaddress unmet needs in the fields of severe burns, chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, connective tissue disorders and other indications. Our firstinnovative biopharmaceutical product, NexoBrid, received marketing authorization from the EMA and the Israeli, Argentinean, South Korean and RussianMinistries of Health for removal of dead or damaged tissue, known as eschar, in adults with deep partial- and full-thickness thermal burns, also referred to assevere burns. NexoBrid, which is based on our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, represents a new paradigm in burn care management and our clinicaltrials have demonstrated, with statistical significance, its ability to non-surgically and rapidly remove the eschar earlier relative to existing standard of careupon patient admission, without harming viable tissues. We have established a commercial organization for the marketing, sales and distribution ofNexoBrid, including European headquarters in Germany and sales and marketing teams throughout Europe. We sell NexoBrid in Europe and Israel throughour commercial organization, and we have launched NexoBrid in Argentina and South Korea and expect to launch in Russia in the first half of 2019, throughour local distributor. We have recently announced the positive top-line results from our U.S. Phase 3 pivotal (DEDECT) study to support BLA submission tothe FDA, has met its primary and all secondary endpoints and we are conducting a pediatric Phase 3 (CIDS) study to broaden the approved indication ofNexoBrid, which we have recently expended to United States burn centers. Both the DETECT and the CIDS studies as well as the intended BLA submissionto the FDA are funded by BARDA. We manufacture NexoBrid in our state-of-the-art, EMA-certified, cGMP-compliant, sterile pharmaceutical productsmanufacturing facility at our headquarters in Yavne, Israel.32 NexoBrid is an easy to use, topically-applied product that removes eschar in four hours without harming the surrounding healthy tissues. Theremoval of eschar is a procedure also known as debridement. Debridement is a critical first step in the successful healing of severe burns and chronic andother hard-to-heal wounds. Under existing SOC, burn eschar may be removed either by employing certain existing topical agents that have been found to beminimally effective or that take a significantly longer period of time to work, or by resorting to non-selective surgery, which is traumatic and may result inloss of blood and viable tissue. NexoBrid’s rapid and selective debridement alleviates the known risks associated with eschar, such as infection, eventualsepsis, wound deterioration and consequential scarring, and it allows physicians to reach an informed decision on further treatment at an earlier stage bydirect visual assessment of the actual burn depth. Furthermore, NexoBrid minimizes the burden associated with invasive surgical procedures, reduces theneed for skin grafting and sacrifice of healthy tissue from donor sites on a patient’s body and generally results in a more favorable overall long-term patientoutcome. NexoBrid has been investigated in hundreds of patients across more than 15 countries and four continents in seven completed Phase 2 and Phase 3clinical studies. There have been hundreds of presentations and several award winning abstracts of NexoBrid in international and national scientificconferences, and NexoBrid has been presented in about 50 peer-reviewed papers, resulting in support of burn specialists and key opinion leaders. Awarenessof NexoBrid continues to grow through our marketing efforts and continued multinational clinical development. Our second innovative product candidate, EscharEx, is a topical biological drug being developed for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-healwounds and is complementary to the large number of existing wound healing products, which require a clean wound bed in order to heal the wound.EscharEx contains the same proteolytic enzyme technology as NexoBrid, and benefits from the wealth of existing development data on NexoBrid. We havereported final results from our second Phase 2 study evaluating EscharEx for the debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds. In two Phase 2studies that we conducted, this technology demonstrated safety and efficacy in the debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, in a fewapplications. The market opportunities for our patented proteolytic enzyme technology include both eschar removal of severe burns using NexoBrid anddebridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds using EscharEx. Approximately 100,000 patients with severe burns are hospitalized every year in theUnited States and Europe. The severe burn patients are predominantly treated by specialists in approximately 250 burn centers in Europe and the UnitedStates, as well as at burn units of large hospitals in Europe. In addition to marketing NexoBrid in Europe, we have signed local distribution agreements for distribution in Argentina, Russia, South Korea,Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Japan, and Taiwan. We plan to target other international markets, such asLatin America, certain Asia-Pacific countries and members of the Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”), by leveraging our approved registration filefor additional regional marketing authorizations. In addition to the market opportunities for NexoBrid discussed above, we believe that NexoBrid has the potential to play a critical role in the eventof a mass casualty incident (“MCI”), which is generally defined as any incident in which emergency medical services resources, such as personnel andequipment, are overwhelmed by the number and severity of casualties. A variety of public emergencies may give rise to an MCI, such as terrorist attacks,natural disasters, fires and explosions. One example of a MCI is a mass burn casualty disaster, which is defined by the American Burn Association as acatastrophic event in which the number of burn victims exceeds the capacity of the local burn center to provide optimal care. If a significant number of burnvictims arrive at a burn center following an event, some victims may go untreated until the bottleneck is resolved. The use of non-surgical means that arecapable of providing fast debridement without harming healthy tissues, particularly during public health emergencies, could potentially reduce the time,labor and resource burdens associated with the current standard-of-care, thereby enabling the treatment of more patients. In the event of a mass burn casualtydisaster, healthcare professionals can use NexoBrid to begin treatment at the patient’s bedside without the need for a surgical team and facilities. NexoBridhas demonstrated in clinical studies, with statistical significance, its ability to non-surgically and rapidly remove eschar in a single four-hour application.Once the acute treatment has been completed, the wound can be covered with available means and further managed once the MCI is under control and thebottlenecks resolved. NexoBrid has been recognized by BARDA as a potential solution for treatment of burns in the event of a MCI. In September 2015, wewere awarded a contract by BARDA valued at up to $112 million for the advancement of the development and manufacturing, as well as the procurement, ofNexoBrid as a medical countermeasure as part of BARDA’s preparedness for mass casualty events. In July 2017, BARDA expanded its committed funds tosupport our research and development activities by an additional $32 million, bringing potential total non-dilutive funding to a maximum of $132 million. 33 In addition, in September 2018 we awarded a new contract to develop NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries as part of BARDApreparedness for mass casualty events. The contract provides approximately $12 million of funding to support research and development activities up topivotal studies in animals under the U.S. FDA Animal Rule and contains options for additional funding of up to $31 million for additional developmentactivities, animal pivotal studies, and the BLA submission for licensure of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries. See “—BARDA Contract”below. We believe that the indication of debridement of chronic wound and other hard-to-heal-wounds with EscharEx represents a significant opportunity,having what is believed to be a total addressable patient base of more than 14 million patients in the United States and Europe alone, suffering from disorderssuch as diabetic foot ulcers (“DFUs”), venous leg ulcers (“VLUs”), pressure ulcers and surgical/traumatic hard-to-heal wounds. Currently, surgery is aneffective method to debride a wound, however, sharp debridement requires surgically skilled physicians performing surgery with patients under, anesthesia,which in elderly patients with various co-morbidities is accompanied with a higher risk of local and systemic complications. Surgery may also involvehemorrhage which could be more difficult to control due to a high incidence of use of anticoagulants in this population. Surgery on wounds may very easilybecome infected with the infection propagating to surrounding soft and boney tissues ending in life threatening major complication or amputation. Veryoften even minor, limited sharp debridement exposes other sensitive tissue, such as tendons, deep vessels/nerves and bones that may become infected or maybe severely damaged, necessitating additional, more extensive debridement or even amputation. Due to these limitations, chronic wounds are treated byconservative methods such as current enzymes, hydrogels and other topical dressings, which require numerous application sessions and a long time toachieve a clean wound bed, if they achieve this at all. Thus, there is an unmet need for a non-surgical product that will be effective like surgery, but withoutits limitations, and will significantly enhance the rate of, and time to achieve, complete debridement. As documented in the Phase 2 study described above,EscharEx significantly improves the rate of complete debridement after few once-daily applications, thus facilitating wound debridement without the needfor surgery. We are also using our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, which underlies NexoBrid, and our wealth of data and experience gained during theNexoBrid development, to support the development of additional indications such as treatment of connective tissue disorders. In ex-vivo model studies,which are laboratory studies conducted on tissues or cells extracted from a living organism, which in our case were conducted on diseased contracted cordsthat had been surgically removed from patients with a Dupuytren contracture, our technology confirmed with statistical significance that it could dissolve thepathological cords. We are developing an injectable formulation and conducted toxicology studies to enable initiation of clinical studies. We continue toexplore additional indications as well. Our Focus: Burn Wounds Severe burns require specialized care in hospitals or burn centers. Approximately 100,000 patients with severe burns are hospitalized every year inthe United States and Europe. The prevalence of patients with severe burns is even higher in emerging economies. For example, approximately 400,000patients are hospitalized every year with burns in India according to a study conducted by IMS Health. We believe these patients can benefit fromNexoBrid’s effective and selective, non-surgical eschar removal. Burns are life threatening and debilitating traumatic injuries causing considerable morbidity and mortality. A burn may result from thermal,electrical or chemical means that destroy the skin to varying depths. According to Critical Care, an international clinical medical journal, burns are alsoamong the most expensive traumatic injuries because of long and costly hospitalization, rehabilitation and wound and scar treatment. Most burn injuries involve part of or the entire thickness of the skin and in some cases, the deeper subcutaneous fat tissue or underlying structures.The severity of the burn depends on three main factors: ·The extent of the surface the burn occupies is usually referred to as percent of total body surface area (“TBSA”). A burn on an adult’s entire palmwould generally amount to 1% TBSA, and the average hospitalized patient has a burn covering approximately 9% TBSA. Burns covering morethan 15-20% TBSA usually require hospitalization and may result in dehydration, shock and increased risk of mortality. 34 ·The depth of the burn, referred to in terms of “degree” is generally classified into four categories: ○Superficial or first degree burns. Such burns do not penetrate the basal membrane and usually heal naturally. ○Dermal/partial thickness or second degree burns. Such burns are characterized by varying amounts of damaged dermis and can be furthersubdivided into superficial and deep partial-thickness burns. Superficial partial-thickness burns may heal spontaneously after removal ofthe covering thin eschar. Conversely, deep partial-thickness burns are often difficult for physicians to accurately diagnose before escharremoval and may progress and transform into full-thickness burns if not debrided in a timely manner, depending on the magnitude of latenttissue death of the surrounding skin. ○Full thickness or third degree burns. Such burns are characterized by death of the entire dermal tissue down to the subcutaneous fat andmust be debrided and treated by autografting, which is the process of harvesting skin from healthy donor sites on a patient’s body andtransplanting it on the post-debridement, clean wound bed. ○Fourth degree burns. Such burns, which are rare, extend beyond the subcutaneous fat tissue into the underlying structures, such as muscleor bone, and also require debridement and further substantial treatment. ·Other factors include the age of the victim, the body part where the burn occurred and any co-morbidities of the patient. For example, somepatients may require hospitalization regardless of the TBSA or degree of the burn, such as children, the elderly or victims with burns to theextremities, joints or head/neck area or with co-morbidities such as smoke inhalation, diabetes or obesity. When patients are hospitalized for a severe burn, the first step in the treatment after patient stabilization and resuscitation is usually eschar removal.The eschar is the burned tissue in the wound, which is deprived of blood and isolated from all natural systemic defense mechanisms. Debridement is anessential first step in the treatment of patients with severe burns, allowing for: ·the prevention of local infection, sepsis (a systemic inflammatory response caused by severe infection) and additional damage to surroundingviable tissue; and ·the initiation of the body’s healing process and scar prevention. In addition to minimizing the possibility of additional complications, once the eschar is removed, a physician may properly diagnose the true extentof the trauma by a direct visual assessment of the clean wound bed. An informed treatment strategy can be decided upon only if the depth of the burn andextent of the tissue damage is known. Diagnosis of burn depth is difficult, especially because the burn commonly changes its appearance during the first daysafter injury due to burn progression. Burns that are initially difficult to classify due to the presence of eschar are referred to as “indeterminate” burns. Thisambiguity can delay the assessment of the burn depth and formulation of proper treatment. Unless the burns are life-threatening, definitive treatment ispostponed for several days post-injury until diagnosis is clearer, when burn progression by death of the surrounding and underlying tissue has alreadyoccurred and ended. During this delay, local and systemic effects of post-burn inflammation and bacterial contamination can occur. Therefore, earlier,selective eschar removal is essential to prevent eschar-related complications and to allow the physician to reach an informed decision on further treatment. Currently, there are two main treatment modalities for debridement: ·Surgical debridement ○Surgical debridement predominantly includes tangential excision, a procedure in which a surgeon amputates the entire dead tissue mass,layer after layer, down to healthy, viable tissue. The excision is extended into healthy intact tissue to make sure that no trace of the escharremains, resulting in up to an estimated 30-50% of healthy tissue being excised during this procedure. Other methods includedermabrasion, in which a mechanically powered, hand-held rotating abrading cylinder is used to slowly scrape off tissue, and hydrosurgery, in which a high-pressure flow of water abrades the tissue. These alternative methods have attempted to limit the trauma associatedwith tangential excision, but entail spray of contaminated eschar or take a significantly longer time to complete than tangential excision. 35 ○The benefits of surgical eschar removal are that it is usually fast and effective. Disadvantages include the significant trauma of theprocedure, associated blood loss, risk of surgery in delicate areas of the body such as hands, added costs, and, most importantly, the loss ofviable tissue that necessitates additional surgical procedures for harvesting skin from healthy donor sites and autografting. ○Due to the disadvantages of surgery in extensive burns some surgeons limit their debriding surgery to only a part of the affected area in asingle session (15-30% TBSA in most centers), thus delaying full debridement by days. After several days, complications related to escharcontamination may begin and some of the benefits of the earlier debridement may not be realized. On the other hand, when excising burnsimmediately, all suspected necrotic tissue will be excised, inevitably resulting in over-excision, especially in “indeterminate” burns, asafter surgical excision, the remaining skin often no longer has any spontaneous healing potential and will heal only by autografting. ·Non-surgical debridement ○Non-surgical debridement includes many different treatment options that do not require direct surgical removal of the skin to removeeschar. With non-surgical debridement, the eschar is naturally, but slowly, removed by contaminant microorganisms, tissue autolysis, orself-decomposition, and the inflammatory process that may lead to serious local and systemic complications. In seeking to facilitate suchnatural processes, topical medication, anti-microbial agents, enzymes and biological/chemical applications are often applied onto theeschar. ○The benefits of this approach are that it is non-surgical, reduces trauma to the patient and is easier to apply. Disadvantages includenumerous dressing changes and mechanical scraping with limited debridement efficacy. This prolongs the eschar removal process, whichmay lead to death of the tissue surrounding the initial burn wound, causing partial-thickness wounds to transform into full-thicknesswounds and forming granulation tissue that may develop into heavy scars. As demonstrated in our clinical trials, NexoBrid combines the advantages of surgical and non-surgical debridement modalities by providing fast andeffective eschar removal while not harming viable tissues. This allows for earlier direct visual assessment of the burn wound in order to formulate propertreatment. Chronic and Other Hard-to-Heal Wounds The chronic and other hard-to-heal wound market consists of a broader addressable population of more than 14 million patients in Europe and theUnited States alone suffering from chronic wounds such as DFUs, VLUs and pressure ulcers and additional patients suffering from surgical/traumatic hard-to-heal wounds. Chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds represent a $25 billion burden to the U.S. healthcare system. Chronic and hard-to-heal wounds arecaused by impairment in the biochemical and cellular healing processes due to local or systemic conditions and generally can take several weeks to heal, ifnot longer. Such wounds can lead to significant morbidity, including pain, infection, impaired mobility, hospitalization, reduced productivity, amputationand mortality. In each of the various wound types, the presence of the eschar is a frequent cause for “chronification” of wounds and the removal of eschar isthe key step to commence healing. Eschar needs to be removed to prevent further deterioration of the wound that may result in additional adverse patientoutcomes. If not effectively treated, these wounds can lead to potentially severe complications including further infection, osteomyelitis, fasciitis,amputation and mortality. Most advanced wound care therapies, including negative pressure wound therapy, such as V.A.C. Therapy, and skin substitutessuch as Apligraf and Dermagraft and human amniotic tissue products, are complementary to our lead product candidate, EscharEx, as these products require aclean wound bed to effectively heal a wound. Four common chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds are: ·Diabetic foot ulcers. Diabetes can lead to a reduction in blood flow, which can cause patients to lose sensation in their feet and may preventthem from noticing injuries, sometimes leading to the development of DFUs, which are open sores or ulcers on the feet that may take severalweeks to heal, if ever. In the United States alone, over 23 million people, or approximately 8% of the population, suffer from diabetes, a chronic,life-threatening disease. Based on our comprehensive market research study conducted in 2015 on EscharEx that involved more than 200healthcare professionals in the U.S. and Europe, every year, in the United States alone, over 900,000 people develop a DFU and over 600,000undergo debridement of DFUs. 36 ·Venous leg ulcers. VLUs develop as a result of vascular insufficiency, or the inability for the vasculature of the leg to return blood back towardthe heart properly. Based on our comprehensive market research study on EscharEx that involved more than 200 healthcare professionals in theU.S. and Europe, in the United States alone, affect approximately 1.25 million people per year, out of which over 650,000 undergo debridementof VLUs. These ulcers usually form on the sides of the lower leg, above the ankle and below the calf, and are slow to heal and often recur ifpreventative steps are not taken. The risk of VLUs can increase as a result of a blood clot forming in the deep veins of the legs, obesity, smoking,lack of physical activity or work that requires many hours of standing. ·Pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers form as a result of pressure sores, or bed sores, which are injuries to the skin or the tissue beneath the skin.Constant pressure on an area of skin reduces blood supply to the area and over time can cause the skin to break down and form an open ulcer.These often occur in patients who are hospitalized or confined to a chair or bed, and usually form over bony areas, where there is little cushionbetween the bone and the skin, such as lower parts of the body. Annually, 2.5 million pressure ulcers are treated in the United States in acutecare facilities alone. ·Surgical/traumatic wounds. Surgical wounds form as a result of various types of surgical procedures such as investigative or corrective, minoror major, open (traditional) or minimal access surgery, elective or emergency, and incisions (simple cuts) or excision (removal of tissue), amongothers. Traumatic wounds form as a result of cuts, lacerations or puncture wounds, which have caused damage to the skin and underlying tissue.Severe traumatic wounds may require surgical intervention to close the wound and stabilize the patient. Surgical/traumatic hard-to-heal woundsdevelop for various reasons, such as local surgical complications, suboptimal closure techniques, presence of foreign materials, exposed bonesor tendons and infection. In the United States, millions receive post-surgical wound care annually. Connective Tissue Disorders In addition to severe burns and chronic and other hard-to-heal wound indications, we are developing an injectable product based on our patentedproteolytic enzyme technology for connective tissue pathologies and indications, such as: ·Dupuytren’s disease: a condition where one or more fingers are permanently flexed, caused by the formation of scar-like tissues below thepalmar skin (Palmar Fascia), forming hard “cords” that freeze the fingers in non-functional flexion contraction. This condition affectsapproximately 6.2 million people in the United States alone. ·Peyronie’s disease: the development of scar-like tissue, similar to Dupuytren’s cords in the shaft of the penis, causing pain and distortion onerection, preventing intercourse. Peyronie’s disease is typically caused by trauma and affects men over 50 years old. Surgical treatment may bean option in some cases, but can cause complications and may result in a shortening and even greater distortion of the penis. Approximately3.7% to 7.1% of the male population above the age of 50 suffers from Peyronie’s disease in the United States and approximately 3.2% of suchage group suffer from the disease in Europe. ·Frozen shoulder syndrome: a disorder that causes the smooth tissues of the shoulder capsule to become thick, stiff and inflamed, affectingapproximately 2% to 5% of the worldwide population and 10% to 20% of people with diabetes according to industry sources. 37 ·Excessive/unaesthetic scars: A scar is a mark on the skin which is formed due to infection, injury, surgery, inflammation of tissue, burns, andacne. Scars can be of various sizes, shapes, and colors, depending on the age of the scar, the site of the scar and family history. Scar formation isunpredictable and varies from person to person. Excessive scarring can have unpleasant physical, aesthetic, psychological and socialconsequences. Estimates indicate that each year around 100 million people in the developed world acquire scars following elective surgery andsurgery for trauma. Of these, approximately 15% have excessive or unaesthetic scars. Currently, SOC for connective tissue disorders involves surgery, with a very high recurrence rate, and some non-surgical alternatives. One suchalternative for the treatment of Dupuytren’s and Peyronie’s diseases is Xiaflex, a collagenase-based injectable enzyme that has received orphan drug status inthe United States. BARDA Contract In September 2015, BARDA awarded us a contract valued at up to $112 million. In July 2017, BARDA expanded its commitment by an additional$32 million, bringing potential total non-dilutive funding to a maximum of $132 million. The contract is for the advancement of the development andmanufacturing, as well as the procurement, of NexoBrid as a medical countermeasure as part of BARDA preparedness for mass casualty events. The contract includes $56 million of funding to support development activities to complete the FDA approval process for NexoBrid for use inthermal burn injuries, as well as $16.5 million for procurement of NexoBrid, which is contingent upon FDA Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) or FDAmarketing authorization for NexoBrid. In addition, the contract includes options for further funding of up to $10 million for expanding NexoBrid’sindications and up to $50 million for additional procurement of NexoBrid. The agreement may be terminated by BARDA at any time at BARDA’s discretion. In September, 2018, BARDA awarded us an additional new contract to develop NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries as part ofBARDA preparedness for mass casualty events. The contract provides approximately $12 million of funding to support research and development activitiesup to pivotal studies in animals under the U.S. FDA Animal Rule and contains options for additional funding of up to $31 million for additionaldevelopment activities, animal pivotal studies, and the BLA submission for licensure of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries. As of December 31, 2018 the Company has recorded $28.2 million in funding from BARDA under both contracts. NexoBrid and Our Clinical History NexoBrid, our innovative biopharmaceutical product, received marketing authorization from the EMA and the Israeli, Argentinean, South Koreanand Russian Ministries of Health for the removal of eschar in adults with deep partial- and full-thickness thermal burns. The active ingredient in NexoBrid isa mixture of proteolytic enzymes enriched in bromelain prepared from an extract of pineapple plant stems. Proteolysis is a breakdown of proteins into smallerbuilding blocks, polypeptides or amino acids. Our research and development team further developed and optimized this patented proteolytic enzymetechnology, which is the basis for NexoBrid and all of our current pipeline product candidates. One vial of NexoBrid containing 2 grams of concentrate ofproteolytic enzymes enriched in bromelain is sufficient for treating a burn wound area of 100cm2. We developed NexoBrid to fulfill the previously unmet need for an effective and selective debriding agent that combines the efficacy and speed ofsurgery with the non-invasiveness of non-surgical methods. NexoBrid enhances the ability of physicians to conduct an earlier direct visual assessment of theburn depth to reach an informed decision on further treatment as well as to reduce the surgical burden and achieve a favorable long-term patient outcome. NexoBrid has been investigated in hundreds of patients across 15 countries and four continents in seven completed Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinicalstudies. While we are marketing our product for the removal of eschar in burn wounds under the name “NexoBrid,” in clinical trials the product has beenreferred to as “Debridase” and “Debrase.” 38 The following table sets forth information regarding the completed clinical trials of NexoBrid: Trial 1Trial 2Trial 3Trial 4Trial 5Trial 6Trial 7Study Type· RetrospectivePhase 2· Investigatorinitiated· Dose rangePhase 2· ProspectivePhase 2· IND/FDA· Phase 2· IND/FDA· Phase 3· EMA· Phase 3b· EMA· Phase 2· EMADesign· Data collectedfrom files ofpatients treatedwith NexoBrid· Parallel,controlled,observer-blind,randomized,single-center· Parallel,controlled,observer-blind, three-arm,randomized,multi-center· Parallel,controlled, openlabel, three-arm,randomized,single-center· Parallel,controlled,open label,two-arm,randomized,multi-center· Parallel,controlled,blinded, two-arm, multi-center· Open label,single-arm,multi-centerMain Objectives· Safety· Efficacy· Comparison ofefficacy andsafety· Safety· Efficacy· Safety· Safety· Efficacy· Long-term scarassessment· Quality of life· Safety andpharmacokinetics· EfficacyWound Types· Deeppartial/fullthicknessthermal burns· Deeppartial/fullthicknessthermal burns· Deeppartial/fullthicknessthermal burns· Deeppartial/fullthicknessthermal burns· Deeppartial/fullthicknessthermal burns· Scar formation· Deep partial/fullthickness thermalburnsNumber ofPatients· 154· 20· 140· 30· 182· 89· 36Study Length· 1985-2000· 2002-2005· 2003-2004· 2006-2007· 2006-2009· 2011· 2009-2015Location· Israel· Israel· International· United States· International· International· International Trial 1: Retrospective Phase 2—Israel Trial 1 evaluated the safety and efficacy of NexoBrid in hospitalized subjects between six months and 82 years of age with severe burns of up to67% TBSA. Data from 154 subjects with complete file documentation were analyzed, including a signed informed consent form and pre- and post-escharremoval photographs. According to the trial, NexoBrid allowed early and fast debridement, reduced surgical burden and was determined to be safe locallyand systemically. Trial 2: Dose Range Phase 2—Israel Trial 2 evaluated the efficacy and safety of three doses of NexoBrid. Twenty hospitalized adult subjects with severe burns of 1-15% TBSA wererandomized and provided a one-, two- or four-gram dose of NexoBrid powder per 20 grams of a sterile gel substance (“Gel Vehicle”). The study confirmedthat the use of two grams of NexoBrid mixed with 20 grams of Gel Vehicle per 100cm2 was a safe and effective dose. Trial 3: Prospective Phase 2—International/Investigational New Drug (“IND”) Trial 3 evaluated the safety and enzymatic eschar removal efficacy of NexoBrid as compared to the Gel Vehicle and SOC. A total of 140 hospitalizedadult subjects with severe burns of 2-15% TBSA (but not more than 30% TBSA in total), were randomized in a 2:1:1 ratio to NexoBrid, Gel Vehicle and SOCtreatment. The trial results showed that NexoBrid was a fast and effective enzymatic debriding agent, combining the advantage of early eschar removal withreduced surgical burden. 39 Trial 4: Prospective Phase 2—United States/IND Trial 4 evaluated the safety and exploratory efficacy of NexoBrid in comparison to the Gel Vehicle and SOC in hospitalized adult subjects withsevere burns of 1-5% TBSA. Thirty hospitalized subjects were randomized and provided NexoBrid, the Gel Vehicle or SOC treatment. Although this studywas designed as a safety study and was conducted in a limited number of patients, the results suggest that NexoBrid provided effective debridement and maybe an alternative to surgical debridement. According to the trial, NexoBrid had a similar safety profile to the Gel Vehicle and SOC and the Gel Vehicle wasnot shown to have any deleterious effect. Trial 5: Phase 3—EMA Trial 5 evaluated the safety and efficacy of NexoBrid. The study was a prospective, controlled, two-arm, parallel, open-label, randomized, multi-center design. It included 182 enrolled patients between the ages of four and 55, who were hospitalized with severe burn wounds covering from 5-30% TBSA.The two arms consisted of patients who were treated with NexoBrid and patients who were treated with SOC, which included surgical and non-surgical escharremoval. The treatment of the study arms differed only by the studied eschar removal modalities. The co-primary endpoints were the percentage of woundarea that was excised and the percentage of wound area that was autografted. The secondary endpoints included need for and extent of eschar excision, timeto wound closure, time to complete eschar removal (≥ 90%) and blood loss. The study was successfully concluded when pre-planned interim analysisdemonstrated a statistically significant difference in both primary endpoints between the groups. The results showed that NexoBrid significantly reduced both the percentage of wounds requiring excision or autografting and the percentage ofwound area requiring excision or autografting. P-value is a measure of statistical significance, with P<0.05 considered statistically significant. In patients who received NexoBrid, 24.5% of wounds required excision, whereas, in patients who received SOC, 70.0% of wounds required excision(P<0.0001). With regard to the proportion of wound area excised when excision was required, patients who received NexoBrid had 13.1% of wound areaexcised, compared to 56.7% of wound area excised for patients receiving SOC (P<0.0001). The results were similar for autografting, although this endpointcould only be evaluated for deep partial-thickness wounds, as full-thickness wounds always require autografting due to the lack of viable dermis, regardlessof the technique used to remove the eschar. In patients receiving NexoBrid, 17.9% of deep partial-thickness wounds required autografting, compared to34.1% for patients receiving SOC (P=0.0099). With regard to the proportion of wound area autografted, patients who received NexoBrid had 8.4% of deeppartial-thickness wound area autografted, compared to 21.5% for patients receiving SOC (P<0.0054). (1)Only deep partial-thickness wounds are presented, as full-thickness wounds always require autografting due to the lack of viable dermis, regardless of thetechnique used to remove the eschar. NexoBrid successfully removed the eschar in 96.3% of the wounds compared to 93.5% of the wounds debrided by SOC. The results also showed that NexoBrid significantly reduced the time required to achieve successful eschar removal, allowing for early and directassessment of the wound bed. For patients with successful eschar removal, defined as at least 90%, those who received NexoBrid achieved successful escharremoval in 0.8 days, compared to 6.7 days for patients receiving SOC, as measured from the time of signing informed consent (P<0.0001), which representsthe time at which a patient can start being treated with an investigational product in a clinical trial setting. 40 With regard to hand burns, results showed that the use of NexoBrid significantly reduced surgical burden in terms of the need for excision, graftingor escharotomy. In patients who received NexoBrid, 9.7% required excision, compared to 70.7% for patients receiving SOC (P<0.0001). When excision wasrequired, the proportion of wound area excised was 3.5% for patients receiving NexoBrid and 52.0% for patients receiving SOC (P<0.0001). As forautografting, 4.2% of patients treated with NexoBrid required autografting, compared to 50.0% of patients treated with SOC (P=0.0005). When autograftingwas performed, the proportion of wound area autografted was 2.1% for patients who received NexoBrid and 30.5% for patients who received SOC (P=0.0017).With respect to escharotomies, no escharotomy was needed for hand burns treated with NexoBrid, whereas 9.7% of hand burns treated with SOC requiredescharotomies (P=0.07). Trial 6: Phase 3b—EMA Trial 6 assessed long-term scar formation and quality of life in adults and children who received NexoBrid or SOC during the Phase 3 clinical study.The follow-up was completed two to four years after injury. The study was a prospective, controlled, two-arm, parallel, blinded, multi-center design andincluded 89 patients. Scar quality was assessed using the Modified Vancouver Scar Scale (“MVSS”). The MVSS measures pliability, height, vascularity, andpigmentation, as well as pain and pruritus, on a scale of 0 to 18, with a higher score indicating a more severe scar. To assess quality of life, the study used theShort Form-36 questionnaire (“SF-36”) for adults and the Burn Outcome Questionnaire (“BOQ”) for children. The results confirmed that based on the MVSS the quality of scars was comparable between the patients who received NexoBrid and those who weretreated with SOC (3.12 and 3.38, respectively, P=0.88). However, patients who received NexoBrid experienced a significantly reduced overall quantity ofscarring as compared to those who received SOC; with NexoBrid, 40% of patients had donor site scars, as compared to 68% of patients with SOC (P=0.01).Donor site scars on those who received NexoBrid were also 30% smaller than scars on those who received SOC (P=0.108). It was also confirmed that qualityof life using the SF-36 and BOQ was comparable in both groups. 41Clinical development overall safety assessment The most commonly reported adverse reactions when using NexoBrid are local pain and transient pyrexia/hyperthermia. The data from its clinicaldevelopment showed that the frequency of pain and pyrexia/hyperthermia was reduced through precautionary measures, including preventive analgesia asroutinely practiced for extensive dressing changes in burn patients as well as antibacterial soaking of the treatment area before and after NexoBridapplication. NexoBrid was not found to be associated with a significantly increased risk of serious or severe adverse events compared to SOC. Seriousinfections occurred with similar frequency in the SOC and NexoBrid cohorts and the incidence was low. Adverse events occurring in ≥3.0% of treatedsubjects (e.g. pruritus, or itching, anemia, insomnia, nausea, vomiting and skin graft failure) are common in burn patients and their rate was comparablebetween NexoBrid and SOC treated patients and below the rates reported in the literature. NexoBrid debridement was associated with a slightly higher rate ofwound complications, general infections, wound infections/wound cultures and extent in antibiotic-use. The imbalances were small, wound infections wereonly mild to moderate in severity and each responded well to treatment. No detrimental effect on long-term outcome has been detected for the NexoBridtreated patients. During the above mentioned completed trials, there were five deaths (four reported in the Phase 2 study) resulting from medical reasons in NexoBridpatients compared to one non-related death in the SOC group. Neither the analysis of the narratives contained in the death investigative report, nor theopinions of the physicians who treated the patients, nor the Data Safety Monitoring Board have associated NexoBrid with the deaths in patients who receivedthe treatment. The EMA concluded that the benefit-risk of NexoBrid for the removal of eschar in adults with deep partial, mixed and full-thickness burns ispositive. Trial 7: Phase 2—EMA Trial 7 evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics (transcutaneous absorption) and efficacy of NexoBrid in hospitalized children and adults withthermal burns. The multicenter, open-label, single-arm study was conducted in Europe, Israel and India and included 36 patients with severe burns of 4% to30% total body surface area (TBSA). NexoBrid was applied to burns of up to 15% TBSA in one session, and when the wound area to be treated was more than15% TBSA, NexoBrid was applied in two separate sessions, each up to 15% TBSA. Trial results showed that the use of NexoBrid was safe and effective.Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic profile following NexoBrid’s first and second topical application was comparable, suggesting no concern withaccumulation following a second topical application of NexoBrid. Ongoing and future clinical trials U.S. Phase 3 Study – DETECT study The DEDECT study is a prospective, multicenter, multinational, randomized, controlled, assessor blinded Phase 3 study, performed in subjects withthermal burns, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NexoBrid compared to Gel Vehicle and compared to SOC in 175 patients hospitalized patients withsevere burns of up to 30% TBSA randomized in a 3:1:3 ratio, with 12-month and 24-month follow-ups. The study involves 44 burn centers. The studyobjectives are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NexoBrid by removing burn eschar earlier and reducing surgical burden and related blood loss inhospitalized patients with severe burns. Complete eschar removal was the primary endpoint of the study and was tested against the Gel Vehicle control arm.The primary analysis was based on whether complete eschar removal was achieved in all target wounds of a patient. The analysis compared all randomizedpatients to the NexoBrid arm to all randomized patients to the Gel Vehicle control arm. Secondary endpoints included reduction in the need for surgicaleschar removal (surgical burden), earlier eschar removal, and blood loss, which were tested against the SOC control arm. All secondary endpoints wereanalyzed and compared all patients randomized to the NexoBrid arm to all patients randomized to the SOC control arm. On January 2019 we announcedpositive top-line results. The study met its primary endpoint with statistical significance. Patients treated with NexoBrid demonstrated a significantly higherincidence of complete eschar removal compared with patients treated with the Gel Vehicle (NexoBrid: 93.3% (70/75) vs. Gel Vehicle: 4.0% (1/25),p<0.00011). 1 Fisher's exact test42 The study included secondary endpoints that were all met with statistical significance and provided further insight on several efficacy parameters:(i) Patients treated with NexoBrid demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of surgical eschar removal compared with patients treated with SOC(NexoBrid: 4.0% (3/75) vs. SOC: 72.0% (54/75), p<0.00012); Patients treated with NexoBrid demonstrated a significantly shorter time to achieve completeeschar removal compared with patients treated with SOC (median time - NexoBrid: 1.0 days vs. SOC: 3.8 days, p<0.00013); and Patients treated withNexoBrid incurred significantly lower blood loss during the eschar removal procedure compared with patients treated with SOC (mean volume – NexoBrid:14.2 ml vs. SOC: 814.5 ml, p<0.00014). In addition, Patients treated with NexoBrid had a non-inferior time to complete wound closure compared withpatients treated with SOC (p=0.00035). The study Data Safety Monitoring Board ("DSMB") concluded after all patients have been treated, that the overallsafety profile of NexoBrid in the study is good, and consistent with the safety data known from previous studies. The planned twelve-month and twenty four-month safety follow-ups for cosmesis, function, quality of life and safety measurements are ongoing, andthe Company expects to submit to the FDA the analysis of the twelve-month safety follow up in the first half of 2020 and of the twenty four months safetyfollow-up in the first half of 2021. We plan to submit the Biological License Application (BLA) in the second half of 2019 based on the above available acute primary, secondary, andsafety data with the twelve-month safety follow-up data submitted during the BLA review, subject to FDA concurrence at a pre BLA meeting planned for firsthalf of 2019. The study also serves to address our post approval commitment to EMA. This study is funded by BARDA.

The studyobjectives are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with NexoBrid compared with SOC in hospitalized children with severe thermal burns of 1% to30% total body surface area (TBSA). We recently expended this study also to United States burn centers, following approval of the study protocol by theFDA. The study is underway in accordance with a study design endorsed by the FDA and the EMA as part of the agreed Pediatric Investigational Plan (“PIP”)to support extension of the indication to pediatric patients. The study includes three pre-defined stages: Stage 1 includes patients from age four to 18; Stage 2includes patients from age one to 18; and Stage 3 includes patients from birth to age 18. The study is currently in Stage 2. Recently, after reviewing the dataof 50 pediatric patients, the study Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommended to lower the study exclusion criteria age even further, to includepediatric patients also from new born to one years old. Based on this recommendation, we intend to approach the study sites’ Institutional Review Boards andask to allow to include into the CIDS study pediatric patients of all ages, from new born to eighteen years of age, offering NexoBrid to this important andsensitive group of patients. The primary endpoints evaluate early eschar removal, surgical burden and cosmesis and function with a 24-month follow-up. Interim results with predefined stopping rules after a 12-month follow-up of all patients are expected to be available in the second half of 2022, with finalresults available in the second half of 2023. This study is funded by BARDA. See “—BARDA Contract” above. European observational retrospective data collection study As part of our post marketing commitment in Europe and as is customary for recently approved drugs, we agreed with European regulatoryauthorities to conduct an observational retrospective data collection study to assess risk minimization measures in burn patients who were treated withNexoBrid. The data was collected by investigators who will fill in report based on medical records of patients who received NexoBrid treatment at burncenters in the first two years from product launch and signed on inform consent form. Data was collected retrospectively from 160 burned patients which weretreated with NexoBrid during 2 years period from launch date in 6 E.U. countries (Germany, Belgium, Sweden, Poland, Spain and Slovak Republic). Themain objective of this study is assessing the effectiveness of the risk minimization activities and their effect on the incidence rate of pain and pyrexiacompared to the incidence rate reported during Trial 5 (Phase 3—EMA). We recently completed the survey data collection and overall, the study met its co-primary endpoints showing non-inferiority in incidence rates of reported events of pain and pyrexia in the NexoBrid treated patients as compared with theevents reported in clinical development of NexoBrid. Final results shall be reported to EMA on the second half of 2019. This study is funded by BARDA. See“—BARDA Contract” above. EscharEx and Our Clinical History EscharEx is a topical agent being developed for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, in order to fulfill an unmet need for aneffective and non-surgical debridement mean. EscharEx is based on the same patented proteolytic enzyme technology as NexoBrid but differs in otheraspects, such as in formulation and presentation. We completed a first Phase 2 feasibility study in Israel for chronic and other hard-to-heal wound technology. In January 2017 we announced thefinal results of a second Phase 2 prospective study in Israel and Europe. In November 2017, we announced the final results of a second cohort of the secondPhase 2 study. Based on the completed studies, we believe that our technology may be effective for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds. First Phase 2 feasibility study—Israel This first Phase 2 feasibility study was conducted in Israel to study the efficacy of our technology on chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds. Thestudy assessed 24 patients at two sites. The results showed that our technology was effective in debriding various chronic and other hard-to-heal woundetiologies, such as DFUs, VLUs, pressure sores and trauma on diseased skin. 44 Second Phase 2 study—Israel/E.U. – First Cohort This second Phase 2 prospective study was conducted in Israel and Europe to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EscharEx in comparison to the GelVehicle1 at a ratio of 2:1 for the treatment of a variety of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, in three etiologies, DFUs, VLUs and post-surgical ortraumatic hard-to-heal wounds. This was a prospective, controlled, assessor-blinded, randomized, multi-center Phase 2 study in Israel and Europe. The primary endpoint assessed incidence of complete non-viable tissue removal (debridement) at the end of the debridement period (up to 10treatment days) and the secondary endpoints assessed various efficacy and safety endpoints, including wound bed preparation and wound healing. In January 2017 we reported final results of the first cohort of 73 patients. The average wound age in the EscharEx arm was more than double (72.8 weeks) that of the gel vehicle group (30.8 weeks). The average wound sizewas 33.6 cm2 in the EscharEx arm vs. 25.8 cm2 in the gel vehicle group. Despite the larger wounds and that wounds treated with EscharExwere older thanwounds treated with gel vehicle (72.8 vs. 30.8 weeks), the study met its primary endpoint, as EscharEx demonstrated a statistically significant higherincidence of complete debridement at the end of the debridement period. Patients treated with EscharEx demonstrated a higher incidence of completedebridement (55% or 27/49) compared with patients treated with the hydrogel vehicle (29% or 7/24) with p=0.047. Predefined sub-group analyses showed that 50% of patients with DFUs treated with EscharEx (8/16) achieved complete debridement at the end ofthe debridement period compared with 14.3% of patients with DFUs treated with hydrogel vehicle (1/7). In addition, 62.5% of patients with VLUs treatedwith EscharEx (10/16) achieved complete debridement at the end of the debridement period compared with 25% of patients with VLUs treated with hydrogelvehicle (2/8). Post hoc analysis showed that 56.3% of patients with DFU or VLU in the EscharEx group had complete debridement at the end of thedebridement period compared with 20.0% in hydrogel vehicle group (p=0.028). The study included secondary endpoints that provide further insight into number of efficacy and safety parameters. The secondary endpoint of timeto complete debridement demonstrated a clear trend (p=0.075) that strongly suggests that not only is there a difference in the incidence of debridement, asconfirmed by the primary endpoint, but that debridement occurred earlier in the group treated by EscharEx. The advantage in time to complete debridementwas corroborated by the statistically significant post hoc result in the subgroup of patients with DFUs or VLUs that were treated with EscharEx (p=0.024). Post hoc analysis shows that of patients that achieved complete debridement in the EscharEx group, 93% (25/27) completed the debridement within7 days (4-5 applications on average). The overall patient demographics were comparable across both arms. No deleterious effect on wound healing was observed and no materialdifferences were found in reported adverse events. The overall safety was comparable between the arms. Second Phase 2 study—Israel/E.U. – Second Cohort After successfully completing the first cohort of the study which included 73 patients recruited in 15 clinical sites, we initiated a second cohort ofpatients to demonstrate safety over extended periods of application to further support the product’s convenient application. In this second cohort, werecruited patients from two etiologies, either DFUs or VLUs, over extended periods of application (24-72 hours) in up to eight applications, randomizing thepatients to two study arms EscharEx or gel vehicle at a ratio of 2:1. The second cohort of the study included 38 patients. The primary objective was to assesssafety. In September 2017 we reported final results of the second cohort of 38 patients. EscharEx met its primary safety endpoint in this cohort, and the overall patient demographics and wound baseline characteristics were comparableacross the arms in the second cohort. No related systemic adverse events were reported and adverse events related to local application were mild to moderate,reversible and resolved during the trial. Vital signs, pain scores, infection rates, laboratory parameters and blood loss were comparable between the two armsof the trial. Overall, no material safety concerns were identified. 1 Hydrogel is not a true sham placebo as it is a common and widely used treatment for the debridement of chronic wounds. 45 Following discussions with the FDA regarding the clinical program for EscharEx to treat chronic and hard-to-heal wounds, we were able to obtainFDA concurrence that complete debridement will be the primary endpoint of the studies and wound closure will be measured as a safety outcome todocument that EscharEx has no deleterious effect on wound closure. This design was used in our recently reported successful second Phase 2 study as well asin our on-going NexoBrid U.S. Phase 3 study in burns. We recently met with the Agency to discuss EscharEx development, received concurrence on manyaspects, and suggested additional secondary efficacy endpoints on which we were requested to provide additional information. We recently submitted theinformation, and subject to FDA concurrence, plan to initiate EscharEx clinical program in the first half of 2019. In tandem, we have been working on a second generation of EscharEx, or EX-02. This advanced formulation is designed to have several advantages.Based on our current pre-clinical studies, EX-02 demonstrated even higher potency in lower doses, which should further contribute to EscharEx’s efficacyand tolerability. In addition, we believe EX-02 would be even easier to prepare and applied, which will further support compliance by the patient or caregiverand finally, EX-02 is more differentiated from NexoBrid, which further limits the chances for inter-competition between the two products. The development of EscharEx for chronic and other hard-to-heal wound indications is in Phase 2 studies, and there is no certainty that EscharEx willachieve all the objectives of the trials as required or that FDA will allow at this stage to initiate further studies or that we will successfully complete thedevelopment to obtain a marketing authorization for EscharEx. See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors—Development and commercialization of NexoBrid in theUnited States and our pipeline product candidates worldwide requires successful completion of the regulatory approval process, and may suffer delays orfail.” MWPC003 and Our Pre-Clinical History We have performed preclinical model studies in Israel for the use of our patented proteolytic enzyme technology in treating connective tissuedisorders. Our technology has shown promising results in preclinical model studies for the treatment of connective tissue pathologies. We are advancing thein-house production capacity of the injectable formulation and completed local toxicology studies to potentially allow us to initiate the clinicaldevelopment of our pipeline product candidate, MWPC003, for connective tissue disorders. We have 6 patents (in the United States and in other international markets) and 8 patent applications for MWPC003. These patents provide broadprotection for the specific mixture of proteolytic enzymes in the treatment of a variety of connective tissue diseases. The patents are nominally set to expireon July 19, 2032. Preclinical model study—Israel In preclinical model studies, excised Dupuytren cords were injected with either MWPC003 or a saline solution (control) following Starkweather’sex-vivo validated model. MWPC003 repeatedly provided enzymatic degradation of Dupuytren cords (fasciotomy) in a tearing test model confirming withstatistical significance that MWPC003 completely dissolves Dupuytren’s cords (Fisher Exact test p<0.0001). In a second ex vivo study conducted in 71 cordsinjected with MWPC003 in descending doses, it was demonstrated that even very small doses of MWPC003 can dissolve the pathological cord in more than80% of cases with the Cochran-Armitage test (p=0.0021) indicating that the probability for cord dissolution increases as the dose increases. Toxicologystudies conducted in two species did not indicate systemic toxicity and the intra-dermal local effect was reversible. Although we have conducted preclinical trials, the development of MWPC003 for connective tissue disorder indications is still in its preliminaryphase and there is no certainty that it will achieve all the aims of the trials as required and/or successfully complete the approval process for such indication.See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors—Development and commercialization of NexoBrid in the United States and our pipeline product candidates worldwiderequires successful completion of the regulatory approval process, and may suffer delays or fail.” Research and Development Our research and development strategy is centered on developing our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, which underlies NexoBrid andEscharEx, into additional product candidates for high-value indications. For more information regarding our research and development expenses, see “ITEM5.C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.” 46 Clinical Trials We conduct clinical tests and preclinical studies to support the efficacy and safety of our products and their ingredients and to extend and validatetheir benefits for human health. Preclinical studies allow us to substantiate the safety of our products and obtain preliminarily indications of theirpharmacological profile. As of the date hereof, we had conducted more than 20 preclinical studies, according to the principles of Good Laboratory Practices(“GLP”), and twelve clinical studies, according to the principles of Good Clinical Practices (“GCP”), for NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline productcandidates. As a result, we have developed significant experience in planning, designing, executing, analyzing and publishing clinical studies. Our research and development team manages our clinical studies and coordinates the project planning, trial design, execution, outcome analysesand clinical study report submission. During the design, execution and analyses of our studies, our research and development team consults with key opinionleaders and top-tier consultants in the relevant field of research to optimize both design and execution, as well as to strengthen the scientific, medical andregulatory compliance level of the investigational plan. Our clinical studies have been conducted in collaboration with leading medical and research centersthroughout the world. Manufacturing, Supply and Production We operate a manufacturing facility in Yavne, Israel, in a building that we sub-lease from Clal Life Sciences L.P., with 28 employees as ofDecember 31, 2018. This facility allows us to manufacture sterile biopharmaceutical products, such as NexoBrid. The facility meets current cGMPrequirements, as certified by each of the EMA and the Israeli Ministry of Health. Our facility was approved and, after passing a periodic ministry of healthaudit in May 2017, reapproved as cGMP-compliant for an additional three-year term as of the audit date, until 2020 during which the Israeli Ministry ofHealth is scheduled to conduct its periodic audit for assessment of cGMP compliance renewal. Additionally, as we seek regulatory approval in the UnitedStates and other international jurisdictions for NexoBrid, the FDA or other regional applicable authorities may inspect our plant to confirm it meets allregulatory requirements. Applicable changes in our production processes for NexoBrid must be approved by the EMA and similar authorities in otherjurisdictions. While we believe that our current manufacturing capacity at the facility is sufficient to meet the expected near-term commercial demand forNexoBrid, we are planning to scale-up the current capacity, which we estimate will be valid and qualified, subject to successful authorities cGMP audit,during 2022, and which we expect to cost approximately $8-12 million. The intermediate drug substance used by us in the manufacturing of NexoBrid is bromelain SP, which is derived from pineapple plant stems. Wehave entered into an agreement with CBC, dated January 11, 2001, as amended on February 28, 2010, pursuant to which CBC uses proprietary methods tomanufacture bromelain SP and supplies us with this intermediate drug substance in bulk quantities. According to the terms of the agreement, CBC shall not,and shall not permit related companies or a third party to, manufacture, use, supply or sell the raw materials for the use or production of a product directly orindirectly competing with any of our products. Our supply agreement with CBC has no fixed expiration date and can be voluntarily terminated by us, with atleast six months’ advance written notice, or by CBC, with at least 24 months’ advance written notice. Upon obtaining bromelain SP from CBC, we further process it into the drug substance and then into the drug product to finally create the powderform of NexoBrid. The necessary inactive ingredients contained in NexoBrid, or the excipients, are readily available and generally sold to us by multiplesuppliers. In addition to this powder, we manufacture a gel substance by combining water for injections produced by us at our facility and additionalexcipients. The powder and gel are kept in separate containers in one package of NexoBrid and are simply mixed by a healthcare professional prior to use.NexoBrid is authorized to be sold in Europe, Israel and Argentina in packages containing either a vial of two grams of powder and a jar of 20 grams of gel, ora vial of five grams of powder and a jar of 50 grams of gel. Once the powder and gel are mixed, NexoBrid should be applied within 15 minutes at a ratio ofeither 2 grams of powder and 20 grams of gel to a burn wound area of 100 cm2 or 5 grams of powder and 50 grams of gel to a burn wound area of 250 cm2, asapplicable; however, under current usage, NexoBrid’s label provides that it should not be applied to more than 15% TBSA. Prior to mixture and application,NexoBrid has a shelf life of three years when stored under refrigeration. 47 Marketing, Sales and Distribution We sell NexoBrid in Europe and Israel through our own commercial organization and launched NexoBrid in Argentina, South Korea and in thecoming months in Russia through our local distributors. We are marketing NexoBrid by targeting a focused segment of burn specialists treating patients withsevere burns in burn centers throughout the European Union. We believe that additional burn units in large hospitals as well as smaller hospitals will followthe treatment trends once established by the burn centers. In Europe, the marketing, sales and distribution of NexoBrid is carried out by our wholly-ownedGerman subsidiary, MediWound Germany GmbH, which consists of a marketing team of specialized and knowledgeable sales representatives in Europe. Weobtained national reimbursement in Belgium and Italy and we continue to locally execute our market access strategy for most of Europe to obtainprocurement by hospitals as part of their budget, or under local, regional or national reimbursement, depending on the specific process required in eachcountry. See “—Government Legislation and Regulation—Pharmaceutical Coverage, Pricing and Reimbursement.” In addition to receiving marketingauthorization for NexoBrid in the European Union, key opinion leaders in the burn care field worldwide are already aware of NexoBrid’s efficiency inremoving eschar due to hundreds of scientific presentations and several award winning abstracts at international and national conferences and about 50 peer-reviewed papers. As part of the awarded contract with BARDA, we believe that, contingent upon the FDA Emergency Use Authorization and/or FDA marketingauthorization for NexoBrid, BARDA’s procurement of $16.5 million of NexoBrid as a medical countermeasure for preparedness for mass casualty events willbe initiated in the second half of 2019, following the completion of the DETECT study acute phase. In addition, upon FDA marketing authorization, we anticipate that NexoBrid will require a focused commercial team on the ground in the UnitedStates to cover the specialty hospital call point and maximize NexoBrid’s commercial value. We plan to enter other international markets through collaboration with local distributors and leverage our approved registration file in Europe toobtain regional marketing authorizations. We have signed local distribution agreements for distribution in Argentina, Russia, South Korea, Mexico,Colombia, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Japan and Taiwan. Our distributors in Argentina, South Korea and Russia obtainedmarketing authorization and launched NexoBrid. Our additional distributors have filed or are in the process of filing for market authorization in theirrespective territories and are expected to launch NexoBrid after receipt of local regulatory approval, which may take a year or more to be granted andconsequently may occur in certain markets during 2019. Intellectual Property Our intellectual property and proprietary technology are important to the development, manufacture and sale of NexoBrid, EscharEx and our futurepipeline product candidates. We seek to protect our intellectual property, core technologies and other know-how through a combination of patents,trademarks, trade secrets, non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements, licenses, assignments of invention and other contractual arrangements with ouremployees, consultants, partners, suppliers, customers and others. Additionally, we rely on our research and development program, clinical trials, know-howand marketing and distribution programs to advance our products and product candidates. As of December 31, 2018, we had been granted a total of 96patents and have 37 pending patent applications. The family of patents that covers NexoBrid specifically includes 35 granted patents worldwide and 1pending national phase application. EscharEx is covered by 30 national phase applications. The main patents for our proteolytic enzyme technology which underlies NexoBrid, EscharEx and our current pipeline product candidates havebeen issued in Europe, the United States and other international markets. Our patents which cover NexoBrid claim specific mixtures of proteolytic enzymes,methods of producing such mixtures and methods of treatment using such mixtures. Although the protection achieved is significant for NexoBrid, EscharExand our pipeline product candidates, when looking at our patents’ ability to block competition, the protection offered by our patents may be, to some extent,more limited than the protection provided by patents which claim chemical structures which were previously unknown. Absent patent-term extensions, theNexoBrid family patents are nominally set to expire in 2025 in Europe and 2029 in the United States. Patents issued in other foreign jurisdictions willnominally expire in 2025. The national phase applications relating to EscharEx, if granted, will expire on January 30, 2037, absent any patent-termadjustment and/or extensions. 48 While our policy is to obtain patents by application, license or otherwise, to maintain trade secrets and to seek to operate without infringing on theintellectual property rights of third parties, technologies related to our business have been rapidly developing in recent years. Additionally, patentapplications that we may file or license from third parties may not result in the issuance of patents, and our issued patents and any issued patents that we mayreceive in the future may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. For example, we cannot predict the extent of claims that may be allowed or enforced inour patents nor be certain of the priority of inventions covered by pending third‑party patent applications. If third parties prepare and file patent applicationsthat also claim technology or therapeutics to which we have rights, we may have to participate in proceedings to determine priority of invention, which couldresult in substantial costs to us, even if the eventual outcome is favorable to us. Moreover, because of the extensive time required for clinical developmentand regulatory review of a product we may develop, it is possible that, before NexoBrid can be commercialized in additional jurisdictions and/or before anyof our future products can be commercialized, related patents will have expired or will expire a short period following commercialization, thereby reducingthe advantage of such patent. Loss or invalidation of certain of our patents, or a finding of unenforceability or limited scope of certain of our intellectualproperty, could have a material adverse effect on us. See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors—Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintainprotection for the intellectual property relating to, or incorporated into, our technology and products.” In addition to patent protection, we also rely on trade secrets, including unpatented know‑how, technology innovation, drawings, technicalspecifications and other proprietary information in attempting to develop and maintain our competitive position. We also rely on protection available undertrademark laws, and we currently hold various registered trademarks, including “MediWound,” “NexoBrid” and “EscharEx” in various jurisdictions,including the United States, the European Union and Israel. Klein License Agreement In September 2000, we signed an exclusive license agreement, as amended in June 2007, with Mark Klein, a third party, for use of certain patentsand intellectual property (the “Klein License Agreement”). Under the Klein License Agreement, we received an exclusive license to use the third party’spatents and intellectual property to develop, manufacture, market and commercialize NexoBrid and its pipeline product candidates for the treatment of burnsand other wounds. The claims of such patents are directed to a process of preparing a mixture of escharase and proteolytic enzymes and cover the underlyingproteolytic mixture of escharase and proteolytic enzymes prepared by that specific process. Pursuant to the Klein License Agreement, we are obligated tokeep accounting records related to the sales of NexoBrid and its pipeline product candidates and pay royalties as discussed below. The Klein LicenseAgreement may be terminated by Mark Klein, subject to notice and dispute resolution provisions of the Klein License Agreement, in the event of our breach,bankruptcy petition, insolvency or failure to achieve a development milestone within six months of a target date. We have already achieved all developmentmilestones under the Klein License Agreement. In consideration for the Klein License Agreement, we paid an aggregate amount of $1.0 million following the achievement of certain developmentmilestones. In addition, we undertook to pay royalties of 1.5‑2.5% from revenues, 10% of royalties received from sublicensing and 2% of lump‑sum paymentsreceived from sublicensing, in each case relating to products based on the licensed patents and intellectual property, for a term of 10‑15 years, as applicable,from the date of the first commercial delivery in a major country. In addition, under the Klein License Agreement, we agreed to pay a one‑time lump‑sumamount of $1.5 million upon reaching aggregate revenues of $100 million from the sale of such products. 49 LR License Agreement In August 2016, we signed an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide license agreement with L.R. Research and Development Ltd. (“LR”), an entitycontrolled by Prof. Rosenberg, for use of a certain patent and related intellectual property (the “LR License Agreement”). For additional information, see“ITEM 7.B. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions – Related Party Transactions.” Competition NexoBrid received orphan drug status in the European Union on July 31, 2002 and in the United States on August 20, 2003 for debridement of deeppartial‑ and full‑thickness burns in hospitalized patients. In the United States and the European Union, a sponsor that develops an orphan drug has marketingexclusivity for seven years post‑approval by the FDA and for ten years post‑approval by the EMA, respectively. The exclusive marketing rights in bothregions are subject to certain exceptions, including the development of a clinically significant benefit over the prevalent SOC. Once the market exclusivityfor our orphan indication expires in a given jurisdiction, subject to other protections such as patents, we could face competition from other companies thatmay attempt to develop other products for the same indication. The medical, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are intensely competitive and subject to significant technological change and changes inpractice. While we believe that our innovative technology, knowledge, experience and scientific resources provide us with competitive advantages, we mayface competition from many different sources with respect to NexoBrid, EscharEx, our existing pipeline product candidates or any product candidates that wemay seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Possible competitors may include medical practitioners, pharmaceutical and wound care companies,academic and medical institutions, governmental agencies and public and private research institutions, among others. Any product that we successfullydevelop and commercialize will compete with existing therapies and new therapies that may become available in the future. In addition, we face competition from the current SOC. The current SOC for eschar removal in severe burns is surgery, where debridement can beperformed by tangential excision, dermabrasion or hydro jet, or non‑surgical alternatives, such as applying topical medications to the eschar to facilitate thenatural healing process. Consequently, we face competition from traditional surgical procedures and topical agents. However, based on our clinical trials, webelieve that NexoBrid has a sustainable competitive advantage over the current non‑surgical alternatives and is less invasive than surgery in removing escharin patients with burn wounds. See “—NexoBrid and Our Clinical History” for the results of our clinical trials. Although we are in the clinical and preclinical phases for our pipeline product candidates for debridement of chronic and other hard‑to‑heal woundsand treatment of connective tissue disorders and other indications, respectively, if one of our pipeline product candidates receives approval in the future, wewould compete with traditional surgery and existing non‑surgical and other treatments. In chronic and other hard‑to‑heal wounds, we expect to facecompetition from other debriding agents and wound bed preparation techniques, such as sharp debridement and surgery and topical medication such as gelsand enzymes, such as Smith & Nephew Plc’s Santyl. In addition to the currently available products, other products may be introduced to debride chronic and other hard‑to‑heal wounds or treatconnective tissue disorders during the time that we engage in necessary development. Accordingly, if one of our pipeline product candidates is approved, ourmain challenge in the market would be to convince physicians seeking alternatives to surgery to use our product instead of already existing treatments.While we are still in the development stages, based on our studies, we believe that our pipeline product candidates will be more effective than the currentnon‑surgical alternatives and less invasive than surgery in removing eschar in chronic and other hard‑to‑heal wounds and may be comparable or perhapsbetter than currently available treatments for connective tissue disorders. Government Legislation and Regulation Our business is subject to extensive government regulation. Regulation by governmental authorities in the United States, the European Union andother jurisdictions is a significant factor in the development, manufacture and marketing of NexoBrid and in ongoing research and development activities.NexoBrid has completed the EMA’s preclinical and clinical trials and other pre‑marketing approval requirements and received marketing authorization forthe European Union on December 18, 2012. Our pipeline product candidates would also have to complete such steps in the European Union. Additionally,we must also complete the approval processes in the United States and other jurisdictions in order to market NexoBrid, EscharEx or our pipeline productcandidates. 50 European Union The approval process of medicinal products in the European Union generally involves satisfactorily completing each of the following: ·laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies all performed in accordance with the applicable E.U. GLP or GMP regulations; ·submission to the relevant national authorities of a clinical trial application (“CTA”), which must be approved before human clinical trials maybegin; ·performance of adequate and well‑controlled clinical trials to establish the safety and efficacy of the product for each proposed indication; ·submission to the relevant competent authorities of a marketing authorization application (“MAA”), which includes the data supportingpreclinical and clinical safety and efficacy as well as detailed information on the manufacture and composition and control of the productdevelopment and proposed labeling as well as other information; ·inspection by the relevant national authorities of the manufacturing facility or facilities and quality systems (including those of third parties) atwhich the product is produced, to assess compliance with strictly enforced cGMP; ·potential audits of the non‑clinical and clinical trial sites that generated the data in support of the MAA; and ·review and approval by the relevant competent authority of the MAA before any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the product. Quality/preclinical studies In order to assess the potential safety and efficacy of a product, tests include laboratory evaluations of product characterization, analytical tests andcontrols, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity and pharmacological effects in animal studies. The conduct of the preclinical tests and formulation of thecompounds for testing must comply with the relevant E.U. regulations and requirements. The results of such tests, together with relevant manufacturingcontrol information and analytical data, are submitted as part of the CTA. Clinical trial approval Pursuant to the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC, as amended, a system for the approval of clinical trials in the European Union has beenimplemented through national legislation of the member states. Under this system, approval must be obtained from the competent national authority of aEuropean Union member state in which a study is planned to be conducted. To this end, a CTA is submitted, which must be supported by an investigationalmedicinal product dossier and additional supporting information prescribed by the Clinical Trials Directive and other applicable guidance documents.Furthermore, a clinical trial may only be started after a competent ethics committee has issued a favorable opinion on the clinical trial application in thatcountry. Clinical drug development is often described as consisting of four temporal phases (Phase 1‑4). See, for example, the EMA’s note for guidance ongeneral considerations for clinical trials (CPMP/ICH/291/95). ·Phase 1 (Most typical kind of study: Human Pharmacology); ·Phase 2 (Most typical kind of study: Therapeutic Exploratory); 51 ·Phase 3 (Most typical kind of study: Therapeutic Confirmatory); and ·Phase 4 (Variety of Studies: Therapeutic Use). Studies in Phase 4 are all studies other than routine surveillance performed after drug approval and are related to the approved indication. Forexample, as part of the EMA regulatory approval process, we agreed to provide further data from our post‑marketing clinical trial of NexoBrid, the U.S. Phase3 study (DEDCET). While we believe that the EMA will accept this study to satisfy one of our post‑marketing commitments, if the EMA does not accept thestudy or is not satisfied by the study results, we will need to perform another costly study to provide such data. The phase of development provides an inadequate basis for classification of clinical trials because one type of trial may occur in several phases. Thephase concept is a description, not a set of requirements. The temporal phases do not imply a fixed order of studies since for some drugs in a developmentplan the typical sequence will not be appropriate or necessary. Pediatric investigation plan (“PIP”) We initiated a PIP study in November 2014. On January 26, 2007, Regulation (EC) 1901/2006 came into force with its primary purpose being the improvement of the health of children withoutsubjecting children to unnecessary trials, or delaying the authorization of medicinal products for use in adults. The regulation established the PediatricCommittee (“PDCO”), which is responsible for coordinating the EMA’s activities regarding pharmaceutical drugs for children. The PDCO’s main role is todetermine which studies the applicant needs to perform in the pediatric population as part of the PIP. All applications for marketing authorization for new pharmaceutical products that were not authorized in the European Union prior to January 26,2007 must include the results of studies carried out in children of different ages. The PDCO determines the requirements and procedures of such studies,describing them in a PIP. This requirement also applies when a company wants to add a new indication, pharmaceutical form or route of administration for amedicine that is already authorized. The PDCO can grant deferrals for some medicines, allowing a company to delay development of the medicine in childrenuntil there is enough information to demonstrate its effectiveness and safety in adults. The PDCO can also grant waivers when development of a medicine inchildren is not needed or is not appropriate, such as for diseases that only affect the elderly population. Before a marketing authorization application can be filed, or an existing marketing authorization can be amended, the EMA confirms that theapplicant complied with the studies’ requirements and measures listed in the PIP. Since the regulation became effective, several incentives for thedevelopment of medicines for children become available in the European Union, including: ·medicines that have been authorized for marketing in the European Union with the results of PIP studies included in the product information areeligible for an extension of their patent protection by six months. This is the case even when the studies’ results are negative; ·for orphan medicines, such as NexoBrid, the incentive is an additional two years of market exclusivity instead of one; ·scientific advice and protocol assistance at the EMA are free of charge for questions relating to the development of medicines for children; and ·medicines developed specifically for children that are already authorized, but are not protected by a patent or supplementary protectioncertificate, can apply for a pediatric use marketing authorization (“PUMA”). If a PUMA is granted, the product will benefit from 10 years ofmarket protection as an incentive. 52 Marketing authorization Authorization to market a product in the European Union member states proceeds under one of four procedures: a centralized authorizationprocedure, a mutual recognition procedure, a decentralized procedure or a national procedure. Marketing authorization may be granted only to an applicantestablished in the European Union. Through our wholly‑owned German subsidiary, we received approval for NexoBrid pursuant to the centralizedauthorization procedure. The centralized procedure provides for the grant of a single marketing authorization that is valid for all E.U. member states as well as the EuropeanEconomic Area (“EEA”) member states, Norway, Iceland and Lichtenstein. The centralized procedure is compulsory for medicines produced by certainbiotechnological processes, products designated as orphan medicinal products and products with a new active substance indicated for the treatment of certaindiseases, and is optional for products that are highly innovative or for which a centralized process is in the interest of patients. Products that have receivedorphan designation in the European Union, such as NexoBrid, will qualify for this centralized procedure, under which each product’s marketingauthorization application is submitted to the EMA. Under the centralized procedure in the European Union, the maximum time frame for the evaluation of amarketing authorization application is 210 days (excluding clock stops, when additional written or oral information is to be provided by the applicant inresponse to questions asked by the Committee of Medicinal Products for Human Use). In general, if the centralized procedure is not followed, there are three alternative procedures where applications are filed with one or more membersstate medicines regulators, each of which will grant a national marketing authorization: ·Mutual recognition procedure. If an authorization has been granted by one member state, or the Reference Member State, an application may bemade for mutual recognition in one or more other member states, or the Concerned Member State(s). ·Decentralized procedure. The decentralized procedure may be used to obtain a marketing authorization in several European member stateswhen the applicant does not yet have a marketing authorization in any country. ·National procedure. Applicants following the national procedure will be granted a marketing authorization that is valid only in a singlemember state. Furthermore, this marketing authorization is not based on recognition of another marketing authorization for the same productawarded by an assessment authority of another member state. If marketing authorization in only one member state is preferred, an applicationcan be filed with the national competent authority of a member state. The national procedure can also serve as the first phase of a mutualrecognition procedure. It is not always possible for applicants to follow the national procedure. In the case of medicinal products in the category for which the centralizedauthorization procedure is compulsory, that procedure must be followed. In addition, the national procedure is not available in the case of medicinal productdossiers where the same applicant has already obtained marketing authorization in one of the other European Union member state or has already submitted anapplication for marketing authorization in another member state and the application is under consideration. In the latter case, applicants must follow a mutualrecognition procedure. After a drug has been authorized and launched, it is a condition of maintaining the marketing authorization that all aspects relating to its quality,safety and efficacy must be kept under review. Sanctions may be imposed for failure to adhere to the conditions of the marketing authorization. In extremecases, the authorization may be revoked, resulting in withdrawal of the product from sale. Period of authorization and renewals Marketing authorization is valid for an initial five‑year period and may be renewed thereafter on the basis of a re‑evaluation of the risk‑benefitbalance by the EMA or by the competent authority of the authorizing member state. To this end, the marketing authorization holder shall provide the EMAor other applicable competent authority a consolidated version of the file in respect of quality, safety and efficacy, including all variations introduced sincethe marketing authorization was granted, at least six months before the end of the initial five‑year period. Once renewed, the marketing authorization is validfor an unlimited period, unless the EMA or other applicable competent authority decides, on justified grounds relating to pharmacovigilance, to proceed withone additional five‑year renewal. Any authorization which is not followed by the actual placing of the drug on the E.U. market (in case of centralizedprocedure) or on the market of the authorizing member state within three years after authorization shall cease to be valid. On November 2017, the EuropeanCommission granted a five‑year renewal of our NexoBrid marketing authorization. 53 Orphan designation On July 31, 2002, NexoBrid received orphan drug status in the European Union, and on December 20, 2012, the EMA confirmed NexoBrid’sdesignation as an orphan drug for marketing authorization. In the European Union, the Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products grants orphan drug designation to promote the development of products thatare intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of a life‑threatening or chronically debilitating condition affecting not more than five in 10,000persons in the European Union. Additionally, designation is granted for products intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of a life‑threatening,seriously debilitating or serious and chronic condition and when, without incentives, it is unlikely that sales of the drug in the European Union would besufficient to justify the investment necessary to develop the drug or biological product. In the European Union, orphan drug designation also entitles a party to financial incentives such as reduction of fees or fee waivers and ten years ofmarket exclusivity following drug or biological product approval. This period may be reduced to six years if the orphan drug designation criteria are nolonger met, including where it is shown that the product is sufficiently profitable not to justify maintenance of market exclusivity or a safer, more effective orotherwise clinically superior product is available. Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in, or shorten the duration of, the regulatory review and approval process. Regulatory data protection Without prejudice to the law on the protection of industrial and commercial property, some marketing authorizations benefit from an “8+2(+1)” yearperiod of regulatory protection. During the first eight years from the grant of the innovator company’s marketing authorization, data exclusivity applies. Afterthe eight years have expired, a generic company can make use of the preclinical and clinical trial data of the originator in their regulatory applications butstill cannot market their product until the end of 10 years. An additional one year of market exclusivity can be obtained if, during the first eight years of those10 years, the marketing approval holder obtains an approval for one or more new therapeutic indications which, during the scientific evaluation prior to theirapproval, are determined to bring a significant clinical benefit in comparison with existing therapies. Under the current rules, a third party may reference thepreclinical and clinical data of the reference product beginning eight years after first approval, but the third party may market a generic version only after 10(or 11) years have lapsed. Additional data protection can be applied for when an applicant has complied with all requirements as set forth in an approved PIP. Data Privacy and Security Laws We are also subject to data privacy and security laws in the E.U. as well as the EEA, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data ProtectionRegulation, or GDPR) in relation to our collection, control, processing, sharing, disclosure and other use of personal data (i.e. data relating to an identifiableliving individual). The GDPR is directly applicable in each E.U. and EEA Member State, however, it provides that E.U. and EEA Member States mayintroduce further conditions, including limitations, which could limit our ability to collect, control, process, share, disclose and otherwise use personal data(including health and medical information), and/or could cause our compliance costs to increase, ultimately having an adverse impact on our business. TheGDPR imposes a strict data protection compliance regime including: providing detailed disclosures about how personal data is collected and processed (in aconcise, intelligible and easily accessible form); demonstrating that valid consent or another an appropriate legal basis is in place or otherwise exists tojustify data processing activities; appointing data protection officers in certain circumstances (and there are specific local law requirements, such as those inGermany, on the same); granting strengthened rights for data subjects in regard to their personal data (including the right to be “forgotten” and the right todata portability); introducing the obligation to notify data protection regulators or supervisory authorities (and in certain cases, affected individuals) ofsignificant data breaches; imposing limitations on retention of personal data; maintaining a record of data processing; defining for the first timepseudonymized (i.e., key-coded) data; and complying with principal of accountability and complying with the obligation to demonstrate compliancethrough policies, procedures, training and audit. We are also subject to GDPR rules with respect to cross-border transfers of personal data out of the E.U. andEEA, which are evolving (for example, the European Commission has the ability to review adequacy decisions, such as the one in place for Israel). 54 We depend on a number of third parties in relation to the operation of our business, a number of which process personal data on our behalf. There is noassurance that our own privacy and security-related safeguards and/or any contractual measures that we enter into with these providers will protect us fromthe risks associated with the third-party processing, storage and transmission of such information. Any violation of data or security laws by our third partyprocessors could have a material adverse effect on our business and result in the fines and penalties outlined below. We are subject to the supervision of local data protection authorities in those E.U. and EEA jurisdictions where we are established or otherwise subjectto the GDPR. Fines for certain breaches of the GDPR are significant: up to the greater of EUR 20 million or 4% of total global annual turnover. In addition tothe foregoing, a breach of the GDPR could result in regulatory investigations, reputational damage, orders to cease/ change our processing of our data,enforcement notices, assessment notices (for a compulsory audit), as well potential civil claims including class action type litigation where individuals sufferharm. Manufacturing The manufacturing of authorized drugs, for which a separate manufacturer’s license is mandatory, must be conducted in strict compliance with theEMA’s cGMP requirements and comparable requirements of other regulatory bodies, which mandate the methods, facilities and controls used inmanufacturing, processing and packing of drugs to assure their safety and proper identification. The EMA enforces its cGMP requirements throughmandatory registration of facilities and inspections of those facilities. The EMA may have a coordinating role for these inspections while the responsibilityfor carrying them out rests with the competent authority of the member state under whose responsibility the manufacturer falls. Failure to comply with theserequirements could interrupt supply and result in delays, unanticipated costs and lost revenues, and could subject the applicant to potential legal orregulatory action, including but not limited to warning letters, suspension of manufacturing, seizure of product, injunctive action or possible civil andcriminal penalties. In January 2013, the European Union and Israel signed the Protocol on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Products (the“ACAA”), which covers medicinal products. The ACAA provides for mutual recognition of the conclusions of inspections of compliance of manufacturersand importers with the principles and guidelines of European Union cGMP and equivalent Israeli cGMP. Certification of the conformity of each batch to itsspecifications by either the importer or the manufacturer established in Israel or in the European Union shall be recognized by the other party withoutre‑control at import from one party to the other. 55 Marketing and promotion The marketing and promotion of authorized drugs, including industry‑sponsored continuing medical education and advertising directed toward theprescribers of drugs and/or the general public, are strictly regulated in the European Union, notably under Directive 2001/83, as amended by Directive2004/27. The applicable legislation aims to ensure that information provided by holders of marketing authorizations regarding their products is truthful,balanced and accurately reflects the safety and efficacy claims authorized by the EMA or by the applicable national authority of the authorizing memberstate. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in adverse publicity, warning letters, mandated corrective advertising and potential civil andcriminal penalties. United States Review and approval of biologics In addition to E.U. regulations, NexoBrid is an investigational drug in the United States and is therefore subject to various U.S. regulations. In theUnited States, the FDA regulates drugs and biologics under the FDCA and implementing regulations and other laws, including the Public Health Service Act.On March 24, 2011, the FDA classified NexoBrid as a biological product. Biologics require the submission of a BLA and licensure by the FDA prior to beingmarketed in the United States. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals and the subsequent compliance with appropriate federal, state, local and foreignstatutes and regulations requires the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources. Failure to comply with the applicable U.S. requirements at anytime during the product development process, approval process or after approval may subject an applicant to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctionsas well as enforcement actions brought by the FDA, the U.S. Department of Justice or other governmental entities. Possible sanctions may include the FDA’srefusal to approve pending BLAs, withdrawal of an approval, imposition of a clinical hold, issuance of warning letters, product recalls, product seizures, totalor partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, refusals of government contracts, restitution, disgorgement and civil or criminalpenalties. The process required by the FDA prior to marketing and distributing a biologic in the United States generally involves the following: ·completion of laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies in compliance with the FDA’s GLP or GMP regulations, as applicable; ·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application (“IND”), which must become effective before clinical trials may begin; ·approval by an independent institutional review board (“IRB”) at each clinical site before each trial may be initiated; ·performance of adequate and well‑controlled clinical trials in accordance with GCP to establish the safety and efficacy of the product for eachindication; ·preparation and submission to the FDA of a BLA or supplemental BLA; ·satisfactory completion of an FDA advisory committee review, if applicable; ·satisfactory completion of one or more FDA inspections of the manufacturing facility or facilities at which the product, or components thereof,are produced to assess compliance with cGMP requirements, and to assure that the facilities, methods and controls are adequate to preserve theproduct’s identity, strength, quality and purity; and 56 ·payment of user fees and FDA review and approval of the BLA. We commenced the process of seeking FDA approval for NexoBrid for the removal of eschar in adults with severe burns by submitting an INDbriefing package to the FDA on July 30, 2002. Preclinical studies Preclinical studies include laboratory evaluation of product chemistry, toxicity and formulation, as well as animal studies to assess the potentialsafety and efficacy of the product candidate. Preclinical safety tests must be conducted in compliance with FDA regulations regarding good laboratorypractices. The results of the preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted to the FDA as part of an IND whichmust become effective before clinical trials may commence. Some preclinical testing may continue even after the IND is submitted. Clinical trials in support of a BLA Clinical trials involve the administration of an investigational product to human subjects under the supervision of qualified investigators inaccordance with GCP requirements, which include, among other things, the requirement that all research subjects provide their informed consent in writingbefore their participation in any clinical trial. Clinical trials are conducted under written study protocols detailing, among other things, the objectives of thestudy, the parameters to be used in monitoring safety and the effectiveness criteria to be evaluated. A protocol for each clinical trial and any subsequentprotocol amendments must be submitted to the FDA as part of the IND. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unlessbefore that time the FDA raises concerns or questions related to a proposed clinical trial and places the trial on clinical hold. In such a case, the IND sponsorand the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns before the clinical trial can begin. In addition, an IRB representing each institution participating in the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before itcommences at that institution, and the IRB must conduct continuing review and reapprove the study at least annually. The IRB must review and approve,among other things, the study protocol and informed consent information to be provided to study subjects. An IRB must operate in compliance with FDAregulations. Information about certain clinical trials must be submitted within specific timeframes to the National Institutes of Health for publicdissemination on their website, ClinicalTrials.gov. Clinical trials are typically conducted in three sequential phases, which may overlap or be combined. In the United States, the three phases aregenerally described as follows: Phase 1:The drug is initially introduced into healthy human subjects or patients with the target disease or condition and tested for safety,dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretion and, if possible, to gain an early indication of its effectivenessand to determine optimal dosage. Phase 2:The drug is administered to a limited patient population to identify possible adverse effects and safety risks, to preliminarilyevaluate the efficacy of the product for specific targeted diseases and to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage. Phase 3:The drug is administered to an expanded patient population, generally at geographically dispersed clinical trial sites, inwell‑controlled clinical trials to generate enough data to statistically evaluate the efficacy and safety of the product for approval,to establish the overall risk‑benefit profile of the product, and to provide adequate information for the labeling of the product. Progress reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at least annually to the FDA and more frequently if serious adverseevents occur. Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials may not be completed successfully within any specified period, or at all. Furthermore, the FDA or thesponsor may suspend or terminate a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including a finding that the research subjects are being exposed to anunacceptable health risk. Similarly, an IRB can suspend or terminate approval of a clinical trial at its institution if the clinical trial is not being conducted inaccordance with the IRB’s requirements or if the drug has been associated with unexpected serious harm to patients. 57 Submission of a BLA to the FDA The results of the preclinical studies and clinical trials, together with other detailed information, including information on the manufacture, controland composition of the product, are submitted to the FDA as part of a BLA requesting approval to market the product candidate for a proposed indication.Under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, as amended, applicants are required to pay fees to the FDA for reviewing a BLA. These user fees, as well as theannual fees required for approved products, can be substantial. Each BLA submitted to the FDA for approval is typically reviewed for administrativecompleteness and reviewability within 60 days following submission of the application. If found complete, the FDA will “file” the BLA, which triggers a fullreview of the application. The FDA may refuse to file any BLA that it deems incomplete or not properly reviewable at the time of submission. The FDA’sestablished goals are to review and act on 90% of priority original BLA applications and priority original efficacy supplements within six months of the60‑day filing date and receipt date, respectively. The FDA’s established goals are to review and act on 90% of original BLA applications and standardoriginal efficacy supplements with 10 months of the 60‑day filing date and receipt date, respectively. The FDA, however, may not be able to approve abiologic within these established goals, and its review goals are subject to change from time to time. Further, the outcome of the review, even if generallyfavorable, may not be an actual approval but rather an “action letter” that describes additional work that must be completed before the application can beapproved. Before approving a BLA, the FDA generally inspects the facilities at which the product is manufactured or facilities that are significantly involvedin the product development and distribution process, and will not approve the product unless cGMP compliance is satisfactory. The FDA may deny approvalof a BLA if applicable statutory or regulatory criteria are not satisfied, or may require additional testing or information, which can delay the approval process.FDA approval of any application may include many delays or may never be granted. If a product is approved, the approval will impose limitations on theindicated uses for which the product may be marketed, will require that warning statements be included in the product labeling, may impose additionalwarnings to be specifically highlighted in the labeling (e.g., a Black Box Warning), which can significantly affect promotion and sales of the product, mayrequire that additional studies be conducted following approval as a condition of the approval and may impose restrictions and conditions on productdistribution, prescribing or dispensing in the form of a risk management plan, or impose other limitations. Once a product is approved, marketing the product for other indicated uses or making certain manufacturing or other changes requires FDA reviewand approval of a supplemental BLA or a new BLA, which may require additional clinical data. In addition, further post‑marketing testing and surveillance tomonitor the safety or efficacy of a product may be required. Also, product approvals may be withdrawn if compliance with regulatory standards is notmaintained or if safety or manufacturing problems occur following initial marketing. In addition, new government requirements may be established thatcould delay or prevent regulatory approval of our product candidates under development. Post‑approval requirements Any drug or biologic products for which we receive FDA approvals are subject to continuing regulation by the FDA. Certain requirements include,among other things, record‑keeping requirements, reporting adverse experiences with the product, providing the FDA with updated safety and efficacyinformation annually or more frequently for specific events, product sampling and distribution requirements, complying with certain electronic records andsignature requirements and complying with FDA promotion and advertising requirements. These promotion and advertising requirements include, amongothers, standards for direct‑to‑consumer advertising, prohibitions against promoting drugs for uses or in patient populations that are not described in thedrug’s approved labeling, known as “off‑label use,” and other promotional activities, such as those considered to be false or misleading. Failure to complywith FDA requirements can have negative consequences, including the immediate discontinuation of noncomplying materials, adverse publicity,enforcement letters from the FDA, mandated corrective advertising or communications with doctors, and civil or criminal penalties. Such enforcement mayalso lead to scrutiny and enforcement by other government and regulatory bodies. Although physicians may prescribe legally available drugs for off‑labeluses, manufacturers may not encourage, market or promote such off‑label uses. As a result, “off‑label promotion” has formed the basis for litigation under theFederal False Claims Act, violations of which are subject to significant civil fines and penalties. 58 The manufacturing of NexoBrid, EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates is and will be required to comply with applicable FDAmanufacturing requirements contained in the FDA’s cGMP regulations. NexoBrid is manufactured at our production plant in Yavne, Israel, which is cGMPcertified. The FDA’s cGMP regulations require, among other things, quality control and quality assurance, as well as the corresponding maintenance ofcomprehensive records and documentation. Drug and biologic manufacturers and other entities involved in the manufacture and distribution of approveddrugs and biologics are also required to register their establishments and list any products they make with the FDA and to comply with related requirementsin certain states. These entities are further subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with cGMP andother laws. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area of production and quality control to maintain cGMPcompliance. In addition, a BLA holder must comply with post‑marketing requirement, such as reporting of certain adverse events. Such reports can presentliability exposure, as well as increase regulatory scrutiny that could lead to additional inspections, labeling restrictions or other corrective action to minimizefurther patient risk. Discovery of problems with a product after approval may result in serious and extensive restrictions on the product, manufacturer orholder of an approved BLA, as well as lead to potential market disruptions. These restrictions may include recalls, suspension of a product until the FDA isassured that quality standards can be met, and continuing oversight of manufacturing by the FDA under a “consent decree,” which frequently includes theimposition of costs and continuing inspections over a period of many years, as well as possible withdrawal of the product from the market. In addition,changes to the manufacturing process generally require prior FDA approval before being implemented. Other types of changes to the approved product, suchas adding new indications and additional labeling claims, are also subject to further FDA review and approval. The FDA also may impose a number of post‑approval requirements as a condition of approval of a BLA. For example, the FDA may requirepost‑marketing testing, or Phase 4 testing, as well as risk minimization action plans and surveillance to monitor the effects of an approved product or placeother conditions on an approval that could otherwise restrict the distribution or use of NexoBrid. Orphan designation and exclusivity On August 20, 2003, NexoBrid received orphan drug status in the United States. Under the Orphan Drug Act, the FDA may designate a drug productas an “orphan drug” if it is intended to treat a rare disease or condition (generally meaning that it affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States,or more in cases in which there is no reasonable expectation that the cost of developing and making a drug product available in the United States fortreatment of the disease or condition will be recovered from sales of the product). A company must request orphan product designation before submitting aBLA. If the request is granted, the FDA will disclose the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential use. Orphan drug designation entitles a party toseven years of market exclusivity following drug or biological product approval, but does not convey any advantage in or shorten the duration of theregulatory review and approval process. If a product with orphan status receives the first FDA approval for the disease or condition for which it has such designation, the product will beentitled to orphan product exclusivity. Orphan product exclusivity means that FDA may not approve any other applications for the same product for the sameindication for seven years, except in certain limited circumstances. Competitors may receive approval of different products for the indication for which theorphan product has exclusivity and may obtain approval for the same product but for a different indication. If a drug or drug product designated as an orphanproduct ultimately receives marketing approval for an indication broader than that designated in its orphan product application, it may not be entitled toexclusivity. Pediatric studies and exclusivity Under the Pediatric Research Equity Act of 2003, a BLA or supplement thereto must contain data that are adequate to assess the safety andeffectiveness of the drug product for the claimed indications in all relevant pediatric subpopulations, and to support dosing and administration for eachpediatric subpopulation for which the product is safe and effective. With enactment of the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (the“FDASIA”) in 2012, sponsors must also submit pediatric study plans prior to the assessment data. Those plans must contain an outline of the proposedpediatric study or studies the applicant plans to conduct, including study objectives and design, any deferral or waiver requests, and other informationrequired by regulation. The applicant, the FDA, and the FDA’s internal review committee must then review the information submitted, consult with eachother and agree upon a final plan. The FDA or the applicant may request an amendment to the plan at any time. 59 The FDA may, on its own initiative or at the request of the applicant, grant deferrals for submission of some or all pediatric data until after approvalof the product for use in adults, or full or partial waivers from the pediatric data requirements. Additional requirements and procedures relating to deferralrequests and requests for extension of deferrals are contained in the FDASIA. Unless otherwise required by regulation, the pediatric data requirements do notapply to products with orphan designation. Pediatric exclusivity is another type of non‑patent marketing exclusivity in the United States and, if granted, provides for the attachment of anadditional six months of marketing protection to the term of any existing regulatory exclusivity, including the non‑patent and orphan exclusivity. Thissix‑month exclusivity may be granted if a BLA sponsor submits pediatric data that fairly respond to a written request from the FDA for such data. The data donot need to show that the product is effective in the pediatric population studied; rather, if the clinical trial is deemed to fairly respond to the FDA’s request,the additional protection is granted. If reports of requested pediatric studies are submitted to and accepted by the FDA within the statutory time limits,whatever statutory or regulatory periods of exclusivity or patent protection cover the product are extended by six months. This is not a patent term extension,but it effectively extends the regulatory period during which the FDA cannot accept or approve another application.The Animal Rule In the case of product candidates that are intended to treat certain rare life-threatening diseases, conducting controlled clinical trials to determineefficacy may be unethical or unfeasible. Under regulations issued by the FDA in 2002, often referred to as the ‘‘Animal Rule,’’ the approval of such productscan be based on clinical data from trials in healthy human subjects that demonstrate adequate safety and efficacy data from adequate and well-controlledanimal studies. Among other requirements, the animal studies must establish that the drug or biological product is reasonably likely to produce clinicalbenefits in humans. Because the FDA must agree that data derived from animal studies may be extrapolated to establish safety and effectiveness in humans,seeking approval under the Animal Rule may add significant time, complexity and uncertainty to the testing and approval process. In addition, productsapproved under the Animal Rule are subject to additional requirements including post-marketing study requirements, restrictions imposed on marketing ordistribution or requirements to provide information to patients. Patent term restoration and extension A patent claiming a new drug product may be eligible for a limited patent term extension under the Drug Price Competition and Patent TermRestoration Act of 1984 (the “Hatch‑Waxman Act”), which permits a patent restoration of up to five years for the patent term lost during productdevelopment and the FDA regulatory review. The restoration period granted is typically one‑half the time between the effective date of an IND and thesubmission date of a BLA, plus the time between the submission date of a BLA and the ultimate approval date. Patent term restoration cannot be used toextend the remaining term of a patent past a total of fourteen years from the product’s approval date. Only one patent applicable to an approved drug productis eligible for the extension, and the application for the extension must be submitted prior to the expiration of the patent in question. A patent that coversmultiple drugs for which approval is sought can only be extended in connection with one of the approvals. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office reviews andapproves the application for any patent term extension or restoration in consultation with the FDA. Biosimilar products As part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111‑148 (the “Affordable Care Act”), under the subtitle ofBiologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (“BPCI”), a statutory pathway has been created for licensure, or approval, of biological productsthat are biosimilar to or interchangeable with an FDA‑licensed reference biological product. The FDA has issued several guidance documents outlining anapproach to review and approval of biosimilars. Biosimilarity, which requires that there be no clinically meaningful differences between the biologicalproduct and the reference product in terms of safety, purity, and potency, can be shown through analytical studies, animal studies, and a clinical study orstudies. Interchangeability requires that a product is biosimilar to the reference product and the product must demonstrate that it can be expected to producethe same clinical results as the reference product in any given patient and, for products that are administered multiple times to an individual, the biologic andthe reference biologic may be alternated or switched after one has been previously administered without increasing safety risks or risks of diminished efficacyrelative to exclusive use of the reference biologic. However, complexities associated with the larger, and often more complex, structures of biologicalproducts, as well as the processes by which such products are manufactured, pose significant hurdles to implementation of the abbreviated approval pathwaythat are still being worked out by the FDA. 60 Under the BPCIA, an application for a biosimilar product may not be submitted to the FDA until four years following the date that the referenceproduct was first licensed by the FDA. In addition, the approval of a biosimilar product may not be made effective by the FDA until 12 years from the date onwhich the reference product was first licensed. During this 12‑year period of exclusivity, another company may still market a competing version of thereference product if the FDA approves a full BLA for the competing product containing the sponsor’s own preclinical data and data from adequate andwell‑controlled clinical trials to demonstrate the safety, purity and potency of their product. The approval of a biologic product biosimilar to NexoBrid couldhave a materially adverse impact on our business, may be significantly less costly to bring to the market and may be priced significantly lower thanNexoBrid, but such approval may only occur after our 12‑year exclusivity period. The BPCIA also created certain exclusivity periods for biosimilars approved as interchangeable products. At this juncture, it is unclear whetherproducts deemed “interchangeable” by the FDA will, in fact, be readily substituted by pharmacies, which are governed by state pharmacy law. The BPCIA iscomplex and continues to be interpreted and implemented by the FDA. In addition, recent government proposals have sought to reduce the 12‑year referenceproduct exclusivity period. Other aspects of the BPCIA, some of which may impact the BPCIA exclusivity provisions, have also been the subject of recentlitigation. As a result, the ultimate impact, implementation, and meaning of the BPCIA remains subject to significant uncertainty. Review and Approval of Drug Products Outside the European Union and the United States In addition to the above regulations, we must obtain approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries outside ofthe European Union and the United States before we can commence clinical trials or marketing of NexoBrid in those countries. The approval process variesfrom country to country and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA or EMA approval. In addition, the requirements governing theconduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country. In all cases, clinical trials are conducted inaccordance with GCP and the applicable regulatory requirements and the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. Pharmaceutical Coverage, Pricing and Reimbursement Significant uncertainty exists as to the coverage and reimbursement status of any products for which we obtain regulatory approval. In the UnitedStates, European Union and other markets, sales of any products for which we receive regulatory approval for commercial sale will depend to a large extenton the availability of reimbursement from third‑party payors. Third‑party payors include governments, government health administrative authorities,managed care providers, private health insurers and other organizations. The process for determining whether a payor will provide coverage for a drugproduct may be separate from the process for setting the price or reimbursement rate that the payor will pay for the drug product. Third‑party payors may limitcoverage to specific drug products on an approved list, or formulary, which might not include all of the drug products approved for a particular indication bythe FDA, EMA or National Ministries of Health. Third‑party payors are increasingly challenging the price and examining the medical necessity andcost‑effectiveness of medical products and services, in addition to their safety and efficacy. We may need to conduct expensive pharmacoeconomic studies inorder to demonstrate the medical necessity and cost‑effectiveness of NexoBrid, in addition to the costs required to obtain the FDA or other Ministry of Healthapprovals. Additionally, NexoBrid may not be considered medically necessary or cost‑effective. A payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug productdoes not guarantee that an adequate reimbursement rate will be approved. Adequate third‑party reimbursement may not be available to enable us to maintainprice levels sufficient to realize an appropriate return on our investment in product development. In the United States, the Affordable Care Act substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers andsignificantly impacted the pharmaceutical industry. The Affordable Care Act contains a number of provisions, including those governing enrollment infederal healthcare programs, reimbursement changes and fraud and abuse provisions, which will impact existing government healthcare programs and willresult in the development of new programs, including Medicare payment for performance initiatives and improvements to the physician quality reportingsystem and feedback program. 61 Additionally, the Affordable Care Act: ·increases the minimum level of Medicaid rebates payable by manufacturers of brand‑name drugs from 15.1% to 23.1%; ·requires collection of rebates for drugs paid by Medicaid managed care organizations; and ·imposes a non‑deductible annual fee on pharmaceutical manufacturers or importers who sell “branded prescription drugs” to specified federalgovernment programs. There have been judicial and congressional challenges to certain aspects of the Affordable Care Act, and we expect the current U.S. presidentialadministration to continue to seek amendments to or repeal of the Affordable Care Act. While Congress has not passed repeal legislation, the Tax Cuts andJobs Act of 2017 includes a provision repealing, effective January 1, 2019, the tax-based shared responsibility payment imposed by the Affordable Care Acton certain individuals who fail to maintain qualifying health coverage for all or part of a year that is commonly referred to as the “individual mandate.” OnDecember 14, 2018, a U.S. District Court Judge in the Northern District of Texas, ruled that the individual mandate is a critical and inseverable feature of theAffordable Care Act, and therefore, because it was repealed as part of the Tax Act, the remaining provisions of the Affordable Care Act are invalid as well.While the Trump Administration and CMS have both stated that the ruling will have no immediate effect, it is unclear how this decision, subsequent appeals,if any, and other efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act will impact the Affordable Care Act and our business. Congress may consider otherlegislation to repeal or replace elements of the Affordable Care Act in the future. We cannot predict what legislation, if any, to repeal or replace theAffordable Care Act will become law, or what impact any such legislation may have on our product candidate. In the European Union, pricing and reimbursement schemes vary widely from country to country and often within regions or provinces of countries.Some countries provide that drug products may be marketed only after a reimbursement price has been agreed and may limit the annual budget of coverage orrequest that the company participate in the cost above certain use levels or for treatments perceived as unsuccessful and impose monitoring processes on theuse of the product. Some countries and hospitals may require inclusion into the hospital formulary for payment from the hospital budget. Some countries andhospitals may require the completion of additional studies that compare the cost‑effectiveness of a particular drug candidate to currently available therapies.For example, the European Union provides options for its member states to restrict the range of drug products for which their national health insurancesystems provide reimbursement and to control the prices of medicinal products for human use. European Union member states may approve a specific pricefor a drug product or may instead adopt a system of direct or indirect controls on the profitability of the company placing the drug product on the market.Other member states allow companies to fix their own prices for drug products, but monitor and control company profits. The downward pressure on healthcare costs in general, particularly prescription drugs, has become intense. As a result, increasingly high barriers are being erected to the entry of new products.In addition, in some countries, cross‑border imports from low‑priced markets exert competitive pressure that may reduce pricing within a country. Anycountry that has price controls or reimbursement limitations for drug products may not allow favorable reimbursement and pricing arrangements. Healthcare Law and Regulation Healthcare providers, physicians and third‑party payors play a primary role in the recommendation and prescription of drug products that are grantedmarketing approval. Arrangements with healthcare providers, third‑party payors and other customers are subject to broadly applicable fraud and abuse andother healthcare laws and regulations. Such restrictions under applicable federal and state healthcare laws and regulations, include the following: ·the federal healthcare Anti‑Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receivingor providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce or reward either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase,order or recommendation of, any good or service for which payment may be made, in whole or in part, under a federal healthcare program suchas Medicare and Medicaid; ·the federal False Claims Act imposes civil penalties, and provides for civil whistleblower or qui tam actions, against individuals or entities forknowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, to the federal government, claims for payment that are false or fraudulent or making a falsestatement to avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government; 62 ·HIPAA, imposes criminal and civil liability for executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program or making false statementsrelating to healthcare matters; ·HIPAA, as amended by HITECH and its implementing regulations, also imposes obligations, including mandatory contractual terms, withrespect to safeguarding the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information; ·the federal false statements statute prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making anymaterially false statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; ·the federal physician payment transparency requirements under the Affordable Care Act require certain manufacturers of drugs, devices andmedical supplies to report to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services information related to payments and other transfers of value tophysicians, certain other healthcare professionals, and teaching hospitals and physician ownership and investment interests; ·analogous state and foreign laws and regulations, such as state anti‑kickback and false claims laws, may apply to sales or marketingarrangements and claims involving healthcare items or services reimbursed by non‑governmental third‑party payors, including private insurers;and ·similar healthcare laws and regulations in the E.U. and other jurisdictions, including reporting requirements detailing interactions with andpayments to healthcare providers and laws governing the privacy and security of personal data, including the General Data ProtectionRegulation (“GDPR”), which imposes obligations and restrictions on the collection and use of personal data relating to individuals located inthe E.U. and EEA (including with regard to health data). Some state laws require pharmaceutical companies to comply with the pharmaceutical industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines and the relevantcompliance guidance promulgated by the federal government in addition to requiring drug manufacturers to report information related to payments tophysicians and other health care providers or marketing expenditures. State and foreign laws also govern the privacy and security of health information insome circumstances, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and often are not preempted by HIPAA, thus complicating compliance efforts. Environmental, Health and Safety Matters We are subject to extensive environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in a number of jurisdictions, primarily Israel, governing, amongother things: the use, storage, registration, handling, emission and disposal of chemicals, waste materials and sewage; chemicals, air, water and groundcontamination; air emissions and the cleanup of contaminated sites, including any contamination that results from spills due to our failure to properlydispose of chemicals, waste materials and sewage. Our operations at our Yavne manufacturing facility use chemicals and produce waste materials and sewage.Our activities require permits from various governmental authorities including, local municipal authorities, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and theMinistry of Health. The Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Health, local authorities and the municipal water and sewage companyconduct periodic inspections in order to review and ensure our compliance with the various regulations. These laws, regulations and permits could potentially require the expenditure by us of significant amounts for compliance or remediation. If we failto comply with such laws, regulations or permits, we may be subject to fines and other civil, administrative or criminal sanctions, including the revocation ofpermits and licenses necessary to continue our business activities. In addition, we may be required to pay damages or civil judgments in respect of third‑partyclaims, including those relating to personal injury (including exposure to hazardous substances we use, store, handle, transport, manufacture or dispose of),property damage or contribution claims. Some environmental, health and safety laws allow for strict, joint and several liability for remediation costs,regardless of comparative fault. We may be identified as a responsible party under such laws. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on ourbusiness, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, laws and regulations relating to environmental, health and safety matters are often subject to change. In the event of any changes or newlaws or regulations, we could be subject to new compliance measures or to penalties for activities which were previously permitted. For instance, new Israeliregulations were promulgated in 2012 relating to the discharge of industrial sewage into the sewer system. These regulations establish new and potentiallysignificant fines for discharging forbidden or irregular sewage into the sewage system. Properties Our principal executive offices are located at 42 Hayarkon Street, Yavne 8122745, Israel. We lease these facilities from our largest shareholder, ClalLife Sciences, L.P. (“CLS”), pursuant to a sub‑lease agreement, as amended, that expires on October 30, 2022. The facilities consist of approximately 32,300square feet of space, and the yearly lease fee is approximately $385 thousands. These facilities house our administrative headquarters, our research anddevelopment laboratories and our manufacturing plant. The sub-lease agreement include an option to extend the lease period for additional 3 years at oursole discretion. 63 We also lease offices at Eisenstrasse 5, 65428 Rüsselsheim, Germany. We lease these facilities pursuant to a lease agreement with a term of threeyears that expires on April 30, 2022. The facilities consist of approximately 2,670 square feet of space, and lease payments are approximately €2,800 (or$3,100) per month. These facilities house our European headquarters. Legal Proceedings From time to time, we may be party to litigation or subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. On September 15, 2014, a statement of claim was filed against the company by certain shareholders of PolyHeal. The plaintiffs allege that thecompany is obligated to pay them a total amount of approximately $1.3 million plus applicable interest (totaled in $1.5 million as of the ruling date) inexchange for their respective portion of PolyHeal’s shares, following the milestone occurrence under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. This claim arose out of adispute with Teva under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. On December 14, 2014, the company filed a petition for a right to defend with the Tel Aviv‑JaffaDistrict Court, in which the company: (i) rejected the arguments raised against it in the statement of claim; (ii) emphasized that its obligation under the 2010PolyHeal Agreement to purchase the 7.5% of PolyHeal’s shares is subject to the consumption of the deferred closing, as defined in the 2010 PolyHealAgreement, including the receipt of the funds from Teva on a “back to back” basis; and (iii) stated that since no such payment has been made by Teva, thecompany is not subject to any obligation to purchase PolyHeal shares and/or make any payments to PolyHeal’s shareholders. On November 13, 2017, the Tel Aviv‑Jaffa District Court issued a ruling in favor of the plaintiffs. The court ruled that the we are obligated topurchase PolyHeal’s shares for approximately $6.75 plus applicable interest (totaled in $7.5 million as of the ruling date) million plus applicable interest,which represents the purchase price for the total number of shares that the PolyHeal Agreements contemplate would be acquired by the Company from all theshareholders of PolyHeal. The Court ordered that we are obligated to purchase shares in PolyHeal from the plaintiffs, on the basis of their actual shareholdings in PolyHeal as of January 15, 2013, for approximately $1.5 million, within 15 days from the date of the Court’s ruling. On December 27, 2017, wefiled an appeal to the Supreme Court over the said ruling, alleging, among other things, that the agreement according to which the ruling was granted wasmisinterpreted by the District Court. We further alleged that both the wording of the agreement and the conduct of the parties thereunder prove that ourobligation to purchase PolyHeal’s shares was subject to the prior receipt of funds, which were never received, from Teva. On January 30, 2018, certainPolyHeal shareholders filed a cross appeal, alleging that they are entitled to receive from us a full repayment of their counsel’s fees in a sum equal to 12.5% ofthe consideration to be paid for their shares. Accordingly, a full provision for the purchase price of the shares plus the accrued interest, totaling $7.5 million, was recorded within the loss fromdiscontinued operations in respect of this claim, of which approximately $1.5 million was paid to plaintiffs in consideration for PolyHeal’s shares. On March 24, 2019, we entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release (the "PolyHeal Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs,which contingent upon the Israeli Supreme Court's approval of this settlement agreement, settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that we and theplaintiffs had, has or may have to the other party under, in connection with or arising out of the transactions described above. Pursuant to the terms of thisPolyHeal Settlement Agreement, the plaintiffs will repay to the company a non-material portion of the amount that was ruled in their favor under the 2017Ruling, and the Israeli Supreme Court will approve and accept the appeal that was filed by us on December, 2017, cancel the 2017 Ruling that was issued bythe District Court against us, and reject the Cross-Appeal. However, if the Israeli Supreme Court does not approve of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement orrefuses to take the actions requested from the court in the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, these matters may result in the continuation of the existinglitigation or new litigation or arbitration proceedings, any of which would materially increase our expenses and may disrupt our management’s focus on ourbusiness. See “ITEM 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Legal Proceedings” and “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors- We may haveliabilities under our former agreements with PolyHeal Ltd.” On March 24, 2019, we entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release (the “Teva Settlement Agreement”) with Teva, whichcontingent upon the Supreme Court’s approval of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, which settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that eachparty or any of its controlled affiliates had or has to the other party or any of its controlled affiliates under, in connection with or arising out of certaintransactions and agreements entered into between us and Teva from 2007 to 2012 (collectively, the “Collaboration Agreements”), which have terminatedeffective as of December 31, 2012 and September 2, 2013, as applicable, and which related to NexoBrid, and PolyHeal, including the above PolyHealmilestone and certain payments, which are primarily reimbursement for development and manufacturing costs, that we believed were to be borne by Tevathrough the effective date of termination of such Collaboration Agreements in December 2012.64 Pursuant to the terms of the Teva Settlement Agreement, Teva has agreed to pay us $4.0 million in cash, and to reduce the contingent considerationthat is payable to Teva pursuant to the our repurchase of our shares from Teva in 2013, so that we will be obligated to pay Teva annual payments at a reducedrate of 15% of its recognized revenues from the sale or license of NexoBrid after January 1, 2019, up to a reduced aggregate amount of $10.2 million. Inaddition, we also agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Teva and its controlled affiliates from and against claims relating to a certain milestonerelated to PolyHeal under an agreement associated with the Collaboration Agreements, up to an amount of $10 million, if a notice of such claim has beenreceived by us prior to December 31, 2023.

Company Overview We are a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing novel therapeutics products toaddress unmet needs in the fields of severe burns, chronic and other hard‑to‑heal wounds, connective tissue disorders and other indications. Our firstinnovative biopharmaceutical product, NexoBrid, received marketing authorization from the EMA and the Israeli, Argentinean, South Korean and RussianMinistries of Health for removal of dead or damaged tissue, known as eschar, in adults with deep partial‑ and full‑thickness thermal burns, also referred to assevere burns. NexoBrid, which is based on our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, represents a new paradigm in burn care management and our clinicaltrials have demonstrated, with statistical significance, its ability to non‑surgically and rapidly remove the eschar earlier relative to existing standard of careupon patient admission, without harming viable tissues. We established a commercial organization for the marketing, sales and distribution of NexoBrid,including European headquarters in Germany and sales and marketing teams throughout Europe. We sell NexoBrid in Europe and Israel through ourcommercial organization, and we have launched NexoBrid in Argentina and South Korea, through our local distributor. We are conducting an on‑going U.S.Phase 3 pivotal study to support a BLA submission to the FDA and a European pediatric study to broaden the approved indication of NexoBrid, both ofwhich are funded by BARDA. We manufacture NexoBrid in our state‑of‑the‑art, EMA‑certified, cGMP‑compliant, sterile pharmaceutical productsmanufacturing facility at our headquarters in Yavne, Israel. 65 The Company's securities are listed for trading on NASDAQ since March 2014 following our Initial Public Offering. In 2017, we completed anunderwritten public offering of 5,037,664 ordinary shares and received net proceeds of approximately $22.7 million, after deducting the underwritingdiscount and offering expenses payable by us. Our revenue was $1.6 million, $2.5 million and $3.4 million in 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. In addition, we have signed local distributionagreements for distribution of NexoBrid in Argentina, Russia, South Korea, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka,Japan and Taiwan. Our future growth will depend, in part, on our ability to expand the commercialization of NexoBrid throughout Europe and receivemarketing approval in the United States and other jurisdictions for NexoBrid and EscharEx. However, our net operating losses were $20.2 million, $13.7million and $4.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of$130.7 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future as Research and Development activitiesare central to our operation. We expect to continue to invest in our research and development efforts, including continuing our NexoBrid ongoing clinical trials, as well as theclinical development of EscharEx and our pipeline product candidates. In addition, we expect to continue to advance NexoBrid as a standard of care, expendits commercial reach to additional important international markets and its potential use by countries for preparedness for mass casualty events. Key Components of Statements of Operations Revenues Sources of revenues. We derive revenues from direct and indirect sales of NexoBrid to burn centers and hospitals burn units in Europe and Israel aswell as to local distributors in other countries in accordance with distribution agreements. Therefore, our ability to generate revenues will depend on thesuccessful commercialization of NexoBrid. Cost of Revenues Our total cost of revenues includes expenses for the manufacturing of NexoBrid, including the cost of raw materials, employee‑related expensesincluding salaries, equity based‑compensation and other benefits and related expenses, rental fees, utilities and depreciation, changes in inventory of finishedproducts and other manufacturing expenses, which is partially offset by an allotment of manufacturing costs associated with research and developmentactivities to research and development expenses. We expect that our cost of revenues will increase as we expand the sale of NexoBrid throughout theEuropean Union and internationally. We expect that our cost of revenues as a percentage of our total revenues will decrease to the extent that our sales fromNexoBrid increase. Operating Expenses Research and Development Expenses, gross Research and development activities are central to our business model. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally havehigher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later‑stage clinical trials.We expect research and development costs to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as EscharEx progresses in its clinical program in the U.S. andour other pipeline product candidates’ progress in clinical trials. However, we do not believe that it is possible at this time to accurately project totalprogram‑specific expenses to reach commercialization. There are numerous factors associated with the successful development of any of our productcandidates, including future trial design and various regulatory requirements, many of which cannot be determined with accuracy at this time based on ourstage of development. Additionally, future commercial and regulatory factors beyond our control will affect our clinical development programs andplans. Our actual spending could differ as our plans change and we invest in other drugs or potentially reduce our anticipated funding on research for existingproducts. Research and development consist primarily of compensation for employees engaged in research and development activities including salaries,equity‑based compensation and benefits and related expenses, clinical trials, contract research organization sub‑contractors expenses, development materials,external advisors and the allotted cost of our manufacturing facility for research and development purposes. Since 2016, we have cumulatively spent approximately $47.3 million on research and development primarily of NexoBrid and EscharEx, of which$30.7 million was funded by participation by BARDA funds and the Israeli government grants. Our total research and development expenses, net ofparticipations, were approximately $7.1 million, $5.5 million and $4.1 million in 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. Our research and developmentexpenses related primarily to the development of NexoBrid and EscharEx. We charge all research and development expenses to operations as they areincurred. 66 The successful development of our patented proteolytic enzyme technology used in NexoBrid, EscharEx and additional pipeline product candidatesis highly uncertain. As such, at this time, we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary tocomplete the remainder of the development of our technology for additional indications. This uncertainty is due to numerous risks and uncertaintiesassociated with developing products, including the uncertainty of: ·the scope, rate of progress and expense of our research and development activities; ·preclinical results; ·clinical trial results; ·the terms and timing of regulatory approvals; ·the expense of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights; and ·the ability to market, commercialize and achieve market acceptance for NexoBrid or any other product candidate that we may develop in thefuture. A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of other products that we may develop could result in asignificant change in the costs and timing associated with their development. For example, if the EMA, the FDA or other regulatory authority were to requireus to conduct preclinical and clinical studies beyond those which we currently anticipate for the completion of clinical development of our productcandidates or if we experience significant delays in enrollment in any clinical trials, we could be required to expend significant additional financial resourcesand time on the completion of the clinical development. Participation by Third Parties Our research and development expenses are net of the following participations by third parties: Participation by the IIA. We receive grants, subject to repayment through future royalty payments, as part of the NexoBrid and EscharEx researchand development programs approved by the IIA. The requirements and restrictions for such grants are found in the Innovation Law. Under the InnovationLaw, royalties of 3% on the revenues derived from sales of products or services developed in whole or in part using IIA grants are payable to the IIA. Themaximum aggregate royalties paid generally cannot exceed 100% of the grants made to us, plus annual interest generally equal to the 12‑month LIBORapplicable to dollar deposits, as published on the first business day of each calendar year. The total gross amount of grants actually received by us from theIIA, including accrued LIBOR interest and net of royalties actually paid as of December 31, 2018, totaled approximately $13.7 million and the amortizedcost (using the effective interest method) of the liability as of that date totaled approximately $7.7 million. As of December 31, 2018, we had accrued andpaid royalties to the IIA totaling $0.3 million. In addition to paying any royalty due, we must abide by other restrictions associated with receiving such grants under the Innovation Law thatcontinue to apply following repayment to the IIA. These restrictions may impair our ability to outsource manufacturing, engage in change of controltransactions or otherwise transfer our know‑how outside of Israel and may require us to obtain the approval of the IIA for certain actions and transactions andpay additional royalties and other amounts to the IIA. In addition, any change of control and any change of ownership of our ordinary shares that would makea non‑Israeli citizen or resident an “interested party,” as defined in the Innovation Law, requires prior written notice to the IIA. If we fail to comply with theInnovation Law, we may be subject to criminal charges. See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors – We received Israeli Government grants for certain research anddevelopment activities. The terms of those grants require us to satisfy specified conditions and to pay penalties in addition to repayment of the grants uponcertain events.” Research and development grants received from the IIA are recognized upon receipt as a liability if future economic benefits are expected from theproject that will result in royalty‑bearing sales. The amount of the liability for the loan is first measured at fair value using a discount rate that reflects amarket rate of interest that reflects the appropriate degree of risks inherent in our business. The change in the fair value of the liability associated with grantsfrom the IIA is reflected as an increase or decrease in our research and development expenses for the relevant period. 67 Participation by BARDA. On September 29, 2015, we were awarded a contract by BARDA valued up to $112 million for the advancement of thedevelopment and manufacturing, as well as the procurement, of NexoBrid in the United States. On July 17, 2017, we entered into an amendment to ourcontract with BARDA that increased its potential value to a maximum of $132 million. See “ITEM 4.B. Business Overview—BARDA Contract.” Pursuant tothe contract, BARDA has committed to fund all development costs of NexoBrid required for achieving marketing authorization by the FDA, either directly orindirectly by reimbursing actual costs incurred by us. In September 2018, we were awarded a new contract to develop NexoBrid for the treatment of SulfurMustard injuries as part of BARDA preparedness for mass casualty events. The contract provides approximately $12 million of funding to support researchand development activities up to pivotal studies in animals under the U.S. FDA Animal Rule and contains options for additional funding of up to $31 millionfor additional development activities, animal pivotal studies, and the BLA submission for licensure of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries. As of December 31, 2018, we have recorded $28.2 million in funding from BARDA out of the $68 million of committed funds provided for underthose two contracts. Selling and Marketing Expenses Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation expenses for personnel engaged in sales and marketing, including salaries, equitybased‑compensation and benefits and related expenses, as well as promotion, advertising, market access, medical, sales and distribution activities. Theseexpenses also include costs related to the maintenance of our offices in Germany, which is focused primarily on marketing NexoBrid, and marketingauthorization holder related costs. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses consist principally of compensation for employees in executive and administrative functions includingsalaries, equity‑based compensation, benefits, and other related expenses, professional consulting services, including legal and audit fees, as well as costs ofoffice and overhead. We expect general and administrative expenses to remain stable. Financial Income/Financial Expense Financial income includes interest income, revaluation of financial instruments and exchange rate differences. Financial expense consists primarilyof revaluation of financial instruments, financial expenses in respect of deferred revenue and exchange rate differences. The interest due on governmentgrants received from the IIA is also considered a financial expense, and is recognized beginning on the date we receive the grant until the date on which thegrant is expected to be repaid as part of the revaluation to fair value of liabilities in respect of government grants. Discontinued Operation Following the expiration of our PolyHeal license, we accounted for our operation related to PolyHeal as a discontinued operation in accordance withIFRS accounting standard 5, “Non‑current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.” Accordingly, the results of operations of the development,manufacturing and sales of PolyHeal, including impairments of inventories, our exclusive global license of the PolyHeal product and other assets, and anylegal process profit or loss are reported separately as a discontinued operation in our statement of operations for the periods presented below, as well as for allhistorical periods to be presented in future quarterly and annual releases of our results of operations. Taxes on Income The standard corporate tax rate in Israel was 25% and 24%, in the years 2016 and 2017 tax years, respectively and as of January 1, 2018 andthereafter, the corporate tax rate is 23%. We do not generate taxable income in Israel, as we have historically incurred operating losses resulting in carry forward tax losses totalingapproximately $133 million as of December 31, 2018. We anticipate that we will be able to carry forward these tax losses indefinitely to future tax years.Accordingly, we do not expect to pay taxes in Israel until we have taxable income after the full utilization of our carry forward tax losses. Under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719‑1959 (the “Investment Law”), we have been granted “Beneficiary Enterprise”status, which provides certain benefits, including tax exemptions and reduced corporate tax rates. Income not eligible for Beneficiary Enterprise benefits istaxed at a regular corporate tax rate. The benefit entitlement period starts from the first year that the Beneficiary Enterprise first earns taxable income, and islimited to 12 years from the year in which the company requested to have tax benefits apply. 68 Comparison of Period to Period Results of Operations The following table sets forth our results of operations in dollars for the periods indicated: Years Ended December 31, 2016 2017 2018 Consolidated statements of operations data: Revenues 1,558 $2,496 $3,401 Cost of revenues 2,158 1,578 2,088 Gross (loss) profit (600) 918 1,313 Operating expenses: Research and development, gross 14,779 14,625 17,915 Participation by BARDA and IIA (7,711) (9,163) (13,843)Research and development, net of participations 7,068 5,462 4,072 Selling and marketing 8,403 5,362 4,188 General and administrative 4,084 3,781 3,799 Other income from settlement agreement (7,537)Other expenses - - 751 Operating loss (20,155) (13,687) (3,960)Financial income 2,166 406 412 Financial expense (896) (1,252) (2,117)Loss from continuing operations (18,885) (14,533) (5,665)Profit (loss) from discontinued operation - (7,616) 4,608 Net loss (18,885) $(22,149) $(1,057) 69 Year Ended December 31, 2017 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2018 Revenues We generated revenues from sales of NexoBrid in 2017 of approximately $2.5 million, compared to approximately $3.4 million in revenues from thesale of NexoBrid in 2018. Costs and Expenses Cost of revenues Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased from approximately 63% in the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately 61% in theyear ended December 31, 2018. Allotment of manufacturing costs to research and development increased $0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to thedevelopment activities of NexoBrid and EscharEx in 2018. Change in inventory of finished products increased from $(1.0) million in 2017 to $0.3 in 2018 Research and development expenses, net of participations Research and development expenses, gross, increase 22% from approximately $14.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately$17.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. The expenses primarily related to development of NexoBrid, which was predominantly funded byBARDA participation, and EscharEx. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in subcontractors costs and in the allotment cost of manufacturing forresearch and development purposes related to NexoBrid and EscharEx. Salary and related expenses remained stable in the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018. Subcontracting costs increased $2.6 million in theyear ended December 31, 2018 primarily due to clinical development activity of NexoBrid. Allotment of manufacturing costs for research and development purposes increased $0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2018 primarily dueto development activities of NexoBrid and EscharEx. Moreover, participation from BARDA and the Israeli Innovation Authority increased by approximately $4.6 million from $9.2 million in the yearended December 31, 2017 to $13.8 in the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to increase of BARDA funds. 70 Selling and marketing expenses Selling and marketing expenses decreased 22%, from approximately $5.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 to approximately $4.2million in the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in marketing activities associated with the launch of NexoBrid inthe E.U. and a decrease of headcount of employees focused on selling and marketing. General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses remained stable at $3.8 million in the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018. Financial income Financial income remained in the same level of about $0.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2018.

The increase in financial expenses in 2018 included $0.4 million due to the revaluation of contingent consideration for purchase ofshares, $0.2 million of exchange differences and $0.2 million of finance expenses in respect of deferred revenues. Year Ended December 31, 2016 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2017 Revenues We generated revenues from sales of NexoBrid in 2016 of approximately $1.6 million, compared to approximately $2.5 million in revenues from thesale of NexoBrid in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the volume of sales in the EU. Costs and Expenses Cost of revenues Cost of revenues decreased 27% from approximately $2.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to approximately $1.6 million in the yearended December 31, 2017. The cost of revenues consisted primarily of employee related expenses, including salaries and benefit and equity‑based compensation, cost ofmaterials, changes in inventory of finished products and other manufacturing expenses, which is partially offset by an allotment of manufacturing costsassociated with research and development activities to research and development expenses. Allotment of manufacturing costs to research and developmentdecreased $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to a reduction in the development activities of EscharEx in 2017. Change ininventory of finished products decreased $1.8 million from $0.8 million in 2016 to $(1.0) in 2017. Research and development expenses, net of participations Research and development expenses, gross, decreased 1% from approximately $14.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to approximately$14.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2017. The expenses primarily related to development of NexoBrid, which was predominantly funded byBARDA participation, and EscharEx. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the allotment of cost of manufacturing for research and developmentpurposes related to NexoBrid and EscharEx. Salary and related expenses increased $0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 due to an increased headcount of employees focused onresearch and development. Subcontracting costs increased $0.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 primarily due to clinical development activityof NexoBrid. 71Allotment of manufacturing costs for research and development purposes decreased $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 primarily dueto reduction in the development activities of EscharEx. Moreover, participation from BARDA and the Israeli Innovation Authority increased by approximately $1.5 million from $7.7 million in the yearended December 31, 2016 to $9.2 in the year ended December 31, 2017. Selling and marketing expenses Selling and marketing expenses decreased 36%, from approximately $8.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to approximately $5.4million in the year ended December 31, 2017.

Financial expenses in 2017 included $0.4 million due to the revaluation of contingent consideration for the purchase of shares. B. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our primary uses of cash are to fund working capital requirements, research and development expenses of NexoBrid and EscharEx and sales andmarketing activities associated with the commercialization of NexoBrid in Europe. In March 2014, we closed our IPO, resulting in net proceeds to us ofapproximately $71.7 million. In September 2015, we were awarded a contract by BARDA, which was modified in July 2017 and is currently valued at up to$132 million, for the advancement of the development and manufacturing, as well as the procurement, of NexoBrid in the United States. In addition, we wererecently awarded a new contract to develop NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries as part of BARDA preparedness for mass casualty events.The contract provides approximately $12 million of funding to support research and development activities up to pivotal studies in animals under the U.S.FDA Animal Rule and contains options for additional funding of up to $31 million for additional development activities, animal pivotal studies, and theBLA submission for licensure of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries. See “ITEM 4.B. Business Overview—BARDA Contract.” Since weexpect a significant portion of the funding for our NexoBrid development plan will be funded by BARDA, we intend to use a portion of our proceeds raisedduring our IPO initially intended for the development of NexoBrid to further advance the development of EscharEx. Furthermore, on March 7, 2016, the SECdeclared our shelf registration statement on Form F‑3 effective. Under this shelf registration statement, we could offer from time to time up to $125 million inthe aggregate of our ordinary shares, warrants and/or debt securities in one or more series or issuances. In September 2017, we completed an underwrittenpublic offering of 5,037,664 ordinary shares and received net proceeds of approximately $22.7 million, after deducting the underwriting discount andoffering expenses payable by us. We currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities offered by us pursuant to our registration statement onForm F‑3 to fund our research and development activities, primarily the clinical development of EscharEx, and the remainder, if any, for working capital andother general corporate purposes. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows from operations andthe anticipated growth of our business. 72 The table below summarizes our sources of financing for the periods presented. Issuance ofOrdinaryShares andWarrants GovernmentGrants andBARDAFunding,net Total (in thousands) Year ended December 31, 2018 $- $13,784 $13,784 Year ended December 31, 2017 $22,665 $8,895 $31,560 Year ended December 31, 2016 $7 $6,466 $6,473 Our sources of financing in the year ended December 31, 2018 totaled $13.3 million and consisted primarily of funding under the BARDA contracttotaling $13.2 million and the IIA government grants, net of repayments totaling $0.1 million. Our sources of financing in the year ended December 31, 2017 totaled $31.6 million and consisted primarily of the underwritten public offeringproceeds of $22.7 million, IIA government grants totaling $0.3 million and funding under the BARDA contract totaling $8.6 million. Our sources of financing in the year ended December 31, 2016 totaled $6.5 million and consisted primarily of IIA government grants totaling $0.9million and funding under the BARDA contract totaling $5.6 million. As of December 31, 2018, we had $23.6 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits. Our net operating losses were $20.2 million. $13.7million and $4.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of$130.7 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. The net losses we will incur may fluctuatefrom quarter to quarter. Our capital expenditures for fiscal years 2016, 2017, and 2018 amounted to $0.7 million, $1.0 million, and $0.5 million, respectively. Capitalexpenditures consist primarily of investments in manufacturing and laboratory equipment. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth, the timing and extent of our spending on research anddevelopment efforts, and international expansion. We may also seek to invest in or acquire complementary businesses or technologies. To the extent thatexisting cash and cash from operations are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funding through debt and equityfinancing. Additional funds may not be available on favorable terms or at all. We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and short‑term bank depositswill be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months. Cash Flows The following table summarizes our consolidated statement of cash flows for the periods presented: Year Ended December 31, 2016 2017 2018 (in thousands) Net cash provided by (used in): Continuing operating activities $(16,445) $(14,892) $(12,154)Continuing investing activities 1,816 437 (17,040)Continuing financing activities 907 22,995 46 Discontinued operating activities — (1,563) - 73 Net cash used in continuing operating activities The use of cash in all periods resulted primarily from our net losses adjusted for non‑cash charges and measurements and changes in components ofworking capital. Adjustments to net income for non‑cash items include depreciation and amortization, equity‑based compensation, revaluation of contingentliabilities and changes in assets and liabilities items. Net cash used in continuing operating activities was approximately $14.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to approximately$12.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was attributed primarily to the decrease in operating loss as a result of BARDA support anda decrease in change of working capital assets, net. Net cash used in continuing operating activities was approximately $16.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to approximately$14.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was attributed primarily to the decrease in operating loss, which was partially offset by anincrease in change of working capital assets, net. Net cash used in discontinued operating activities Net cash used in discontinued operating activities was approximately $1.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, attributed primarily to theconsideration paid to PolyHeal’s shareholders following the district court ruling. See “ITEM 8.A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Legal Proceedings” and “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors—We may have continuing obligations or liabilities under our former agreements with TevaPharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and PolyHeal Ltd. Net cash provided by (used in) continuing investing activities The use of cash in continuing investing activities has historically been primarily related to investments in short‑term banks deposits and purchasesof property and equipment. Net cash provided by investing activities was $0.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to cash used byinvesting activities of $17.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was attributable primarily to $16.6 million investment in short-term bank deposits and a decrease in purchase of property and equipment. Net cash provided by investing activities was $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to cash provided by investingactivities of $0.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was attributable primarily to decrease of proceeds from short-term bankdeposits and an increase in purchase of property and equipment. Net cash provided by continuing financing activities Net cash provided by continuing financing activities was $23.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $0 million duringthe year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease was attributed primarily to our receipt of $22.7 million net proceeds from our underwritten public offeringin 2017. Net cash provided by continuing financing activities was $0.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $23.0 million duringthe year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was attributed primarily to our receipt of $22.7 million net proceeds from our underwritten public offering in2017. Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our accounting policies and their effect on our financial condition and results of operations are more fully described in our consolidated financialstatements included elsewhere in this annual report. We have prepared our financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. Thepreparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and thedisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportingperiods. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors” for a discussion of thepossible risks which may affect these estimates. 74 While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in thisannual report, we believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to our financial results and to the understanding of our past and futureperformance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s estimates and assumptions. We consider an accounting estimate tobe critical if: (a) it requires us to make assumptions because information was not available at the time or it included matters that were highly uncertain at thetime we were making our estimate; and (b) changes in the estimate could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Revenue Recognition We currently generate revenues from direct and indirect sales of NexoBrid to burn centers and hospital burn units in Europe and Israel as well as tolocal distributors in other countries. Revenues are recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and therevenues can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenues are measured at the fair value of the consideration received orreceivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty and net of returns and allowances, trade discounts andvolume rebates. Revenues from the sale of products are recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products have passed to the buyerand the seller no longer retains continuing managerial involvement. The delivery date of the products is usually the date of which ownership passes to thebuyer. Revenues from distributor’s agreements which are comprised of multiple elements and provide for varying consideration terms, such as upfrontpayments and milestone payments, are recognized when the criteria for revenue recognition have been met and only to the extent of the consideration that isnot contingent upon completion or performance of future services under the contract. Deferred revenues include unearned amounts received from customers not yet recognized as revenues. In May 2014, IFRS 15, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“the new Standard”) was issued by the IASB. The new Standard introduces a five-step model that will apply to revenue earned from contracts with customers and is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018. The new Standard allows the option of modified retrospective adoption. Under this option, the Company is required to recognize the cumulativeeffect of the initial adoption of the new Standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the date of initial application. Accordingto the new Standard, when long-term advances (exceeding one year) are received for a future service, the Company is required to accrue interest andrecognize finance expense on the advances over the period of the contract. We adopted this standard using the modified retrospective method rather than full retrospective method. The accumulated effect of implementingthe new Standard as of January 1, 2018 was an increase of deferred revenues by $249 thousands and increase of accumulated deficit by $249 thousands. Research and Development Expenses Research expenses are recognized as expenses when incurred. Costs incurred on development projects are recognized as intangible assets as of thedate as of which it can be established that it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to us considering its commercialfeasibility. This is generally the case when regulatory approval for commercialization is achieved and costs can be measured reliably. Given the current stageof the development of our products, no development expenditures have yet been capitalized. Intellectual property‑related costs for patents are part of theexpenditure for the research and development projects. Therefore, registration costs for patents are expensed when incurred as long as the research anddevelopment project concerned does not meet the criteria for capitalization. Equity‑Based Compensation We account for our equity‑based compensation for employees in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 2 “Share‑based Payment,” which requiresus to measure the cost of equity‑based compensation based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. 75 We have selected the binominal pricing model as the most appropriate method for determining the estimated fair value of our equity‑based awards.The resulting cost of an equity incentive award is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period of the award, which is usually the vesting period.We recognize compensation expense over the vesting period using the accelerated method pursuant to which each vesting tranche is treated as a separateamortization period from grant date to vest date, and classify these amounts in the consolidated financial statements based on the department to which therelated employee reports. The determination of the grant date fair value of options using an option pricing model is affected by estimates and assumptions regarding a numberof complex and subjective variables. These variables include the expected volatility of our share price over the expected term of the options, share optionexercise and cancellation behaviors, risk‑free interest rates and expected dividends, which are estimated as follows: ·Fair value of our ordinary shares. After March 20, 2014, the date our ordinary shares began trading on Nasdaq, the grant date fair value forequity‑based awards is based on the closing price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq on the date of grant and fair value for all other purposesrelated to share‑based awards is the closing price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq on the relevant date. ·Volatility. The expected share price volatility was based on the historical equity volatility of the ordinary shares of comparable companies thatare publicly traded. ·Early exercise factor. Since adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate, the early exercise factor isdetermined based on peer group imperial studies. ·Risk‑free rate. The risk‑free interest rate is based on the yield from U.S. Treasury zero‑coupon bonds with a term equivalent to the contractuallife of the options. ·Expected dividend yield. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends and do not presently plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeablefuture. Consequently, we used an expected dividend yield of zero. If any of the assumptions used in the option pricing models change significantly, equity‑based compensation for future awards may differ materiallycompared with the awards granted previously. Government Grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority Research and development grants received from the IIA are recognized upon receipt as a liability if future economic benefits are expected from theproject that will result in royalty‑bearing sales. The amount of the liability for the loan is first measured at fair value using a discount rate that reflects amarket rate of interest that reflects the appropriate degree of risks inherent in our business. We used a discount rate of 12% based in part on our cost of capitaldetermined by an independent valuation analysis conducted at the time of our initial recognition of IIA grants as a liability on our balance sheets. Thedifference between the amount of the grant received and the fair value of the liability is accounted for as a government grant and recognized as a reduction ofresearch and development expenses. After initial recognition, the liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Royaltypayments are treated as a reduction of the liability. If no economic benefits are expected from the research activity, the grant receipts are recognized as areduction of the related research and development expenses. In that event, the royalty obligation is treated as a contingent liability in accordance with IAS37, “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.” At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate whether there is reasonable assurance that the liability recognized will be repaid based on our bestestimate of future sales and, if not, the appropriate amount of the liability is derecognized against a corresponding reduction in research and developmentexpenses. Government Funding from BARDA Non‑royalty bearing funds from BARDA for funding research and development activities of NexoBrid are recognized at the time we are entitled tosuch funds on the basis of the related costs incurred and are recorded as a reduction from our research and development expenses. Contingent Consideration for Purchase of Shares On September 2, 2013, in accordance with the terms of the Teva Shareholders’ Rights Agreement entered into in 2007 and amended in 2010, weexercised our rights to repurchase all of our shares held by Teva in consideration for an obligation to pay Teva future royalty payments of 20% of ourrevenues from the sale or license of NexoBrid resulting in royalty payments up to a total amount of $30.6 million and from the sale or license of the PolyHealProduct resulting in royalty payments up to a total amount of $10.8 million. We account for this obligation as a liability on our balance sheet in an amountequal to the fair value of the future royalty payments. In order to determine the fair value, we estimated the amount and timing of the future payments to Tevabased on our projected results of operations. The obligation to pay Teva future royalty payments no longer includes amounts from the sale or license of thePolyHeal Product since the license to the PolyHeal Product has expired. The resulting liability as of the exercise date was estimated at approximately $19.2million. The contingent consideration was revalued as of December 31, 2017 and 2018 to be approximately $14.4 million and $14.5 million, respectively,and we recorded financial expenses of $0.4 million and $0.8 million in 2017 and 2018 respectively. 76 Pursuant to the terms of the Teva Settlement Agreement signed in March 2019, Teva has agreed to reduce the contingent consideration that ispayable to Teva pursuant to the our repurchase of our shares from Teva in 2013, so that we will be obligated to pay Teva annual future royalty payments of15% of our revenues from the sale or license of NexoBrid starting from January 1, 2019, up to a total amount of $10.2 million and to pay us $4.0 million incash. Pursuant to a Settlement Agreement with Teva, the fair value of the revised future royalty obligation to Teva was estimated at $ 6.3 million as ofDecember 31, 2018 using a discounted cash flow model based on sales projections. In addition, a one-time net income of $7,537 was recorded as otherincome and a one-time income of $4,608 was recorded within the profit from discontinued operation in the fourth quarter and full year ending December 31,2018. Impairment of Non‑Financial Assets The intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date until they begin generating net cash inflows and subsequently wheneverthere is an indication that the asset may be impaired. We evaluate the need to record an impairment of the carrying amount of non‑financial assets wheneverevents or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. If the carrying amount of non‑financial assets exceeds theirrecoverable amount, the assets are reduced to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset that does not generate independent cash flows isdetermined for the cash‑generating unit to which the asset belongs and is calculated based on the projected cash flows that will be generated by the cashgenerating unit. An impairment loss of an asset, other than goodwill, is reversed only if there have been changes in the estimates used to determine the asset’srecoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. Reversal of an impairment loss, as above, may not increase the value above the lower of (i)the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prioryears and (ii) its recoverable amount. C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc. Our research and development strategy is centered on developing our patented proteolytic enzyme technology, which underlies NexoBrid andEscharEx, into additional products for high‑value indications. Our research and development team is located at our facilities in Yavne, Israel, and consists of24 employees as of December 31, 2018 and is supported by highly experienced consultants in various research and development disciplines. We have received government grants (subject to payment of royalties) as part of NexoBrid and EscharEx research and development programsapproved by the IIA (in 2017 and 2018 only for EscharEx). The total gross amount of grants actually received by us from the IIA, including accrued LIBORinterest and net of royalties actually paid as of December 31, 2018, totaled approximately $13.7 million and the amortized cost (using the interest method) ofthe liability totaled approximately $7.4 million and $7.7 million as of December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively. Because the repayment of IIA grants is inthe form of future royalties, the balance of the commitments to the IIA is presented as an amortized liability on our balance sheet. As of December 31, 2018,we had accrued and paid royalties to the IIA totaling $0.3 million. We received funds from BARDA in accordance with the terms of our BARDA contract. As of December 31, 2018 we had accrued $28.2 million. For a description of our research and development policies, see “ITEM 4.B. Business Overview—Research and Development.” D. Trend Information Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this annual report, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events for the periodfrom January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our net revenue, income, profitability, liquidity orcapital resources, or that caused the disclosed financial information to be not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial condition. 77 E. Off‑Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not currently engage in off‑balance sheet financing arrangements. In addition, we do not have any interest in entities referred to as variableinterest entities, which includes special purposes entities and other structured finance entities. F. Contractual Obligations Our significant contractual obligations as of December 31, 2018 are summarized in the following table: Payments Due by Period Total 2019 2020 2021 andthereafter (in thousands) Operating lease obligations(1) $1,824 $592 $476 $756 (1)Operating lease obligations consist of payments pursuant to lease agreements for office and laboratory facilities, as well as lease agreements for 16vehicles, which generally run for a period of three years.

The 2003 Plan provides for the grant of options to our and oursubsidiaries’ directors, employees, officers, consultants and service providers, among others. The initial reserved pool under the 2003 Plan was 1,710,000 ordinary shares and subsequently increased to a total of 3,230,000 ordinary shares. The2003 Plan expired on December 31, 2013. The 2003 Plan is administered by our board of directors or a committee designated by our board of directors, whichdetermines, subject to Israeli law, the grantees of options, the terms of the options, including exercise prices, vesting schedules, acceleration of vesting, thetype of option and the other matters necessary or desirable for, or incidental to the administration of the 2003 Plan. The 2003 Plan provides for the issuanceof options under various tax regimes including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 102 and 3(i) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) 1961(the “Ordinance”). Section 102 of the Ordinance allows employees, directors and officers who are not controlling shareholders and who are Israeli residents to receivefavorable tax treatment for compensation in the form of shares or options. Section 102 of the Ordinance includes two alternatives for tax treatment involvingthe issuance of options or shares to a trustee for the benefit of the grantees and also includes an additional alternative for the issuance of options or sharesdirectly to the grantee. Section 102(b)(2) of the Ordinance, which provides the most favorable tax treatment for grantees, permits the issuance to a trusteeunder the “capital gains track.” In order to comply with the terms of the capital gains track, all options granted under a specific plan and subject to theprovisions of Section 102 of the Ordinance, as well as the shares issued upon exercise of such options and other shares received following any realization ofrights with respect to such options, such as share dividends and share splits, must be registered in the name of a trustee selected by the board of directors andheld in trust for the benefit of the relevant employee, director or officer. The trustee may not release these options or shares to the relevant grantee before thesecond anniversary of the registration of the options in the name of the trustee. However, under this track, we are not allowed to deduct an expense withrespect to the issuance of the options or shares. The 2003 Plan provides that options granted to our employees, directors and officers who are not controlling shareholders and who are consideredIsraeli residents are intended to qualify for special tax treatment under the “capital gains track” provisions of Section 102(b)(2) of the Ordinance. Our Israelinon‑employee service providers and controlling shareholders may only be granted options under Section 3(i) of the Ordinance, which does not provide forsimilar tax benefits. Options granted under the 2003 Plan are subject to vesting schedules and generally expire ten years from approval of the option and vest over afour‑year period commencing on the date of grant, such that 25% of the granted options vest annually on each of the first, second, third and fourthanniversaries of the date of grant. Under the 2003 Plan, in the event of termination of employment or services for reasons of disability or death, the grantee, orin the case of death, his or her legal successor, may exercise options that have vested prior to termination within a period of six months after the date oftermination. If a grantee’s employment or service is terminated for cause, all of the grantee’s vested and unvested options expire on the date of termination. Ifa grantee’s employment or service is terminated for any other reason, the grantee may exercise his or her vested options within 90 days after the date oftermination. Any expired or unvested options are returned to the pool for reissuance. 83 The 2003 Plan provides that in the event of a merger or consolidation of our company or a sale of all, or substantially all, of our assets, theunexercised options outstanding may be assumed, or substituted for an appropriate number of shares of each class of shares or other securities as weredistributed to our shareholders in connection with such transaction and the exercise price will be appropriately adjusted. If not so assumed or substituted, allnon‑vested and non‑exercised options will expire upon the closing of the transaction. Our board of directors or its designated committee, as applicable, mayprovide in the option agreement that if the acquirer does not agree to assume or substitute the options, vesting of the options shall be accelerated so that anyunvested option or any portion thereof will vest 10 days prior to the closing of the transaction. In the event that such consideration received in thetransaction is not solely in the form of ordinary shares of another company, the board of directors or the designated committee, as applicable, may, with theapproval of the acquirer, provide that in lieu of the assumption or substitution of the options, the options will be substituted by another type of asset orproperty, including cash. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan In March 2014, we adopted and obtained shareholder approval for our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2014 Plan provides for thegrant of options, restricted shares, restricted share units and other share‑based awards to our and our subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ directors, employees, officers,consultants and advisors, among others and to any other person whose services are considered valuable to us or them, to continue as service providers, toincrease their efforts on our behalf or behalf of a subsidiary or affiliate and to promote the success of our business. Following the approval of the 2014 Plan bythe Israeli tax authorities, we are only granting options or other equity incentive awards under the 2014 Plan, although previously‑granted options andawards will continue to be governed by our 2003 Plan and the shares underlying such options and awards will count against the reserved pool for the2014 Plan. The initial reserved pool under the 2014 Plan was 3,032,742 ordinary shares, which will automatically increase on January 1 of each year by anumber of ordinary shares equal to the lowest of (i) 2% of our outstanding shares, (ii) 600,000 shares and (iii) a number of shares determined by our board ofdirectors, if so determined prior to January 1 of the year in which the increase will occur; provided that the pool of shares reserved under the Plan shall notexceed 15% (fifteen percent) of the then outstanding shares. The reserved pool was increased by 431,006, 540,955 and 423,577 ordinary shares as of January1, 2015, January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2019, respectively, representing 2% of our outstanding shares as of each such date. We did not increase the reservedpool in 2016 or 2017. The 2014 Plan is administered by our board of directors or by a committee designated by the board of directors, which determine, subject to Israelilaw, the grantees of awards and the terms of the grant, including exercise prices, vesting schedules, acceleration of vesting and the other matters necessary inthe administration of the 2014 Plan. The 2014 Plan enables us to issue awards under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections102 and 3(i) of the Ordinance, as discussed under “—2003 Share Incentive Plan” above, and under Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, asamended (the “Code”). Options granted under the 2014 Plan to U.S. residents may qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, ormay be non‑qualified. The exercise price for “incentive stock options” must not be less than the fair market value on the date on which an option is granted,or 110% of the fair market value if the option holder holds more than 10% of our share capital. We currently intend to grant awards under the 2014 Plan under the capital gains track of Section 102(b)(2) of the Ordinance only to our employees,directors and officers who are not controlling shareholders and are considered Israeli residents. Awards under the 2014 Plan may be granted until ten years from the date on which the 2014 Plan was approved by our board of directors. 84 Options granted under the 2014 Plan generally vest over three or four years commencing on the date of grant, such that 33% or 25%, respectively,vests annually on the anniversary of the date of grant. Options, other than certain incentive share options, that are not exercised within ten years from thegrant date expire, unless otherwise determined by our board of directors or its designated committee, as applicable. Share options that qualify as “incentivestock options” and are granted to a person holding more than 10% of our voting power will expire within five years from the date of the grant. In the event ofthe death of a grantee while employed by or performing service for us or a subsidiary or within three months thereafter, or the termination of a grantee’semployment or services for reasons of disability, the grantee, or in the case of death, his or her legal successor, may exercise options that have vested prior totermination within a period of one year from the date of disability or death. If we terminate a grantee’s employment or service for cause, all of the grantee’svested and unvested options will expire on the date of termination. If a grantee’s employment or service is terminated for any other reason, the grantee mayexercise his or her vested options within three months of the date of termination. Any expired or unvested options return to the pool for reissuance. In the event of a merger or consolidation of our company or a sale of all, or substantially all, of our shares or assets or other transaction having asimilar effect on us, then without the consent of the option holder, our board of directors or its designated committee, as applicable, may but is not required to(i) cause any outstanding award to be assumed or an equivalent award to be substituted by such successor corporation, or (ii) in case the successor corporationrefuses to assume or substitute the award (a) provide the grantee with the option to exercise the award as to all or part of the shares or (b) cancel the optionsagainst payment in cash in an amount determined by the board of directors or the committee as fair in the circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ourboard of directors or its designated committee may upon such event amend or terminate the terms of any award, including conferring the right to purchaseany other security or asset that the board of directors shall deem, in good faith, appropriate. Our board of directors or its designated committee may, in itsdiscretion, approve that any awards granted under the 2014 Plan shall be subject to additional conditions in the case of a merger or a consolidation. Restricted share awards are ordinary shares that are awarded to a participant subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions established by theboard of directors or a committee designated by the board of directors. Until such time as the applicable restrictions lapse, restricted shares are subject toforfeiture and may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of by the participant who holds those shares. Generally, if a grantee’s employment orservice is terminated for any reason prior to the expiration of the time when the restrictions lapse, shares that are still restricted will be forfeited. The following table provides information regarding the outstanding options to purchase our ordinary shares held by each of our directors andexecutive officers who beneficially own greater than 1% of our ordinary shares or options to purchase more than 1% of our ordinary shares as of March 15,2019: Name Number ofOptions Number ofRSUs Grant Date ExercisePrice VestedOptions asof March15, 2019 Expiration DateGal Cohen, President and ChiefExecutive Officer 45,600 1/15/2011 $9.82 45,600 1/14/2021 152,000 12/24/2013 $12.89 152,000 12/23/2023 70,000 1/28/2016 $9.58 52,500 12/22/2025Sharon Malka, Chief financialand operation Officer 49,172 1/15/2011 $7.97 49,172 1/14/2021 38,000 1/15/2011 $9.82 38,000 1/14/2021 121,600 12/24/2013 $12.89 121,600 12/23/2023 50,000 12/23/2015 $9.58 37,500 12/22/2025 135,000 12/31/2018 $5.15 - 12/30/2028 45,000 12/31/2018 Lior Rosenberg, Chief MedicalTechnology Officer 76,000 12/24/2013 $12.89 76,000 12/23/2023 25,000 12/23/2015 $9.58 18,750 12/22/2025 20,000 12/31/2018 $5.15 - 12/30/2028 6,667 12/31/2018 85 C. Board Practices Board of Directors Under the Israeli Companies Law, the management of our company is vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors may exercise all powersand may take all actions that are not specifically granted to our shareholders or to management. Our executive officers are responsible for our day‑to‑daymanagement and have individual responsibilities established by our board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer is appointed by, and serves at thediscretion of, our board of directors, subject to the employment agreement that we have entered into with him. All other executive officers are also appointedby our board of directors, and are subject to the terms of any applicable employment agreements that we may enter into with them. Under our articles of association, our board of directors must consist of at least five and not more than nine directors, including at least two externaldirectors required to be appointed under the Israeli Companies Law. At any time the minimum number of directors (other than the external directors) shall notfall below three. Other than external directors, for whom special election requirements apply under the Israeli Companies Law, as detailed below, the IsraeliCompanies Law and our articles of association provide that directors are elected annually at the general meeting of our shareholders by a vote of the holdersof a majority of the voting power represented present and voting, in person or by proxy, at that meeting. We have only one class of directors. In accordance with the exemption available to foreign private issuers under Nasdaq rules, we are not required to comply with the requirements of theNasdaq rules with regard to having a majority of independent directors on our board of directors, as long as we follow Israeli law and practice, in accordancewith which our board of directors includes at least two external directors. Our board of directors has determined that four of our directors are independentunder the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. The definition of “independent director” under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules and “external director” under the IsraeliCompanies Law overlap to a significant degree such that we would generally expect the two directors that serve as external directors to qualify asindependent under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. However, it is possible for a director to qualify as an “external director” under the Israeli Companies Lawwithout qualifying as an “independent director” under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, or vice‑versa. The definition of external director under the IsraeliCompanies Law includes a set of statutory criteria that must be satisfied, including criteria whose aim is to ensure that there is no factor that would impair theability of the external director to exercise independent judgment. The definition of independent director under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules specifiessimilar, although less stringent, requirements in addition to the requirement that the board of directors consider any factor which would impair the ability ofthe independent director to exercise independent judgment. In addition, external directors serve for a period of three years pursuant to the requirements of theIsraeli Companies Law. However, external directors must be elected by a special majority of shareholders while independent directors may be elected by anordinary majority. See “—External Directors” for a description of the requirements under the Israeli Companies Law for a director to serve as an externaldirector. In accordance with the exemption available to foreign private issuers under Nasdaq rules, we do not follow the requirements of the Nasdaq rules withregard to the process of nominating directors, and instead follow Israeli law and practice, in accordance with which our board of directors (or a committeethereof) is authorized to recommend to our shareholders director nominees for election. Under the Israeli Companies Law and our articles of association, nominees for directors may also be proposed by any shareholder holding at least1% of our outstanding voting power. However, any such shareholder may propose a nominee only if a written notice of such shareholder’s intent to propose anominee has been given to our Secretary (or, if we have no such Secretary, our Chief Executive Officer). Pursuant to our Articles of Association, any suchnotice must include certain information, including, among other things, a description of all arrangements between the nominating shareholder and theproposed director nominee(s) and any other person pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by the nominating shareholder, the consent of theproposed director nominee(s) to serve as our director(s) if elected and a declaration signed by the nominee(s) declaring that there is no limitation under theIsraeli Companies Law preventing their election, and that all of the information that is required under the Israeli Companies Law to be provided to us inconnection with such election has been provided. Under the Israeli Companies Law regulations, any such shareholder nomination must be delivered to ourregistered Israeli office within seven days after we publish notice of our upcoming annual general meeting of shareholders (or within 14 days after we publisha preliminary notification of an upcoming annual general meeting). 86 In addition, our articles of association allow our board of directors to appoint directors to fill vacancies on our board of directors for a term of officeequal to the remaining period of the term of office of the director(s) whose office(s) have been vacated. External directors are elected for an initial term ofthree years and may be elected for additional three‑year terms under the circumstances described below. External directors may be removed from office onlyunder the limited circumstances set forth in the Israeli Companies Law. See “—External Directors.” Under the Israeli Companies Law, our board of directors must determine the minimum number of directors who are required to have accounting andfinancial expertise. See “—External Directors” below. In determining the number of directors required to have such expertise, our board of directors mustconsider, among other things, the type and size of the company and the scope and complexity of its operations. Our board of directors has determined that theminimum number of directors of our company who are required to have accounting and financial expertise is one.We are not a party to, and are not aware of, any voting agreements among our shareholders. In addition, there are no family relationships among ourexecutive officers and directors. Under regulations recently promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law, Israeli public companies whose shares are traded on certain U.S. stockexchanges, such as the Nasdaq Global Market, and that lack a controlling shareholder (as defined below) are exempt from the requirement to appoint externaldirectors. Any such company is also exempt from the Israeli Companies Law requirements related to the composition of the audit and compensationcommittees of the Board. Eligibility for these exemptions is conditioned on compliance with U.S. stock exchange listing rules related to majority Boardindependence and the composition of the audit and compensation committees of the Board, as applicable to all listed domestic U.S. companies. Because wehave a controlling shareholder (CBI), we are not eligible for these exemptions under the new regulations. External Directors Under the Israeli Companies Law, we are required to include at least two members who qualify as external directors. Our current external directors areNissim Mashiach and Sharon Kochan, each of whom serves on our audit committee and compensation committee. The provisions of the Israeli Companies Law set forth special approval requirements for the election of external directors. External directors must beelected by a majority vote of the shares present and voting at a meeting of shareholders, provided that either: ·such majority includes at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personalinterest in the election of the external director (other than a personal interest not deriving from a relationship with a controlling shareholder)that are voted at the meeting, excluding abstentions, to which we refer as a disinterested majority; or ·the total number of shares voted by non‑controlling shareholders and by shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the election of theexternal director against the election of the external director does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights in the company. The term “controlling shareholder” as used in the Israeli Companies Law for purposes of all matters related to external directors and for certain otherpurposes (such as the requirements related to appointment to the audit committee or compensation committee, as described below), means a shareholder withthe ability to direct the activities of the company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a controlling shareholder ifthe shareholder holds 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its generalmanager. With respect to certain matters, a controlling shareholder is deemed to include a shareholder that holds 25% or more of the voting rights in a publiccompany if no other shareholder holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the company, but excludes a shareholder whose power derives solely from his orher position as a director of the company or from any other position with the company. The initial term of an external director is three years. Thereafter, an external director may be reelected by shareholders to serve in that capacity for upto two additional three‑year terms, provided that either: (i)his or her service for each such additional term is recommended by one or more shareholders holding at least 1% of the company’s voting rightsand is approved at a shareholders meeting by a disinterested majority, where the total number of shares held by non‑controlling, disinterestedshareholders voting for such reelection exceeds 2% of the aggregate voting rights in the company, subject to additional restrictions set forth inthe Israeli Companies Law with respect to affiliations of external director nominee; or (ii)his or her service for each such additional term is recommended by the board of directors and is approved at a meeting of shareholders by thesame majority required for the initial election of an external director (as described above). 87 The term of office for external directors for Israeli companies traded on certain foreign stock exchanges, including the Nasdaq Global Market, maybe extended indefinitely in increments of additional three‑year terms, in each case provided that the audit committee and the board of directors of thecompany confirm that, in light of the external director’s expertise and special contribution to the work of the board of directors and its committees, thereelection for such additional period(s) is beneficial to the company, and provided that the external director is reelected subject to the same shareholder voterequirements (as described above regarding the reelection of external directors). Prior to the approval of the reelection of the external director at a generalmeeting of shareholders, the company’s shareholders must be informed of the term previously served by him or her and of the reasons why the board ofdirectors and audit committee recommended the extension of his or her term. External directors may be removed from office by a special general meeting of shareholders called by the board of directors, which approves suchdismissal by the same shareholder vote percentage required for their election or by a court, in each case, only under limited circumstances, including ceasingto meet the statutory qualifications for appointment, or violating their duty of loyalty to the company. If an external directorship becomes vacant and there are fewer than two external directors on the board of directors at the time, then the board ofdirectors is required under the Israeli Companies Law to call a shareholders’ meeting as soon as practicable to appoint a replacement external director. Eachcommittee of the board of directors that exercises the powers of the board of directors must include at least one external director, except that the auditcommittee and the compensation committee must include all external directors then serving on the board of directors and an external director must serve aschair thereof. Under the Israeli Companies Law, external directors of a company are prohibited from receiving, directly or indirectly, any compensation fromthe company other than for their services as external directors pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder.Compensation of an external director is determined prior to his or her appointment and may not be changed during his or her term subject to certainexceptions. The Israeli Companies Law provides that a person is not qualified to be appointed as an external director if (i) the person is a relative of a controllingshareholder of the company, or (ii) if that person or his or her relative, partner, employer, another person to whom he or she was directly or indirectlysubordinate, or any entity under the person’s control, has or had, during the two years preceding the date of appointment as an external director: (a) anyaffiliation or other disqualifying relationship with the company, with any person or entity controlling the company or a relative of such person, or with anyentity controlled by or under common control with the company; or (b) in the case of a company with no shareholder holding 25% or more of its votingrights, had at the date of appointment as an external director, any affiliation or other disqualifying relationship with a person then serving as chairman of theboard or chief executive officer, a holder of 5% or more of the issued share capital or voting power in the company or the most senior financial officer. The term “relative” is defined in the Israeli Companies Law as a spouse, sibling, parent, grandparent or descendant; spouse’s sibling, parent ordescendant; and the spouse of each of the foregoing persons. Under the Israeli Companies Law, the term “affiliation” and the similar types of disqualifyingrelationships include (subject to certain exceptions): ·an employment relationship; ·a business or professional relationship even if not maintained on a regular basis (excluding insignificant relationships); ·control; and ·service as an office holder, excluding service as a director in a private company prior to the initial public offering of its shares if such directorwas appointed as a director of the private company in order to serve as an external director following the initial public offering. The term “office holder” is defined in the Israeli Companies Law as a general manager, chief business manager, deputy general manager, vice generalmanager, any other person assuming the responsibilities of any of these positions regardless of that person’s title, a director and any other manager directlysubordinate to the general manager. 88In addition, no person may serve as an external director if that person’s position or professional or other activities create, or may create, a conflict ofinterest with that person’s responsibilities as a director or otherwise interfere with that person’s ability to serve as an external director or if the person is anemployee of the Israel Securities Authority of an Israeli stock exchange. A person may furthermore not continue to serve as an external director if he or shereceived direct or indirect compensation from the company including amounts paid pursuant to indemnification or exculpation contracts or commitmentsand insurance coverage for his or her service as an external director, other than as permitted by the Israeli Companies Law and the regulations promulgatedthereunder. Following the termination of an external director’s service on a board of directors, such former external director and his or her spouse and childrenmay not be provided a direct or indirect benefit by the company, its controlling shareholder or any entity under its controlling shareholder’s control. Thisincludes engagement as an office holder of the company or a company controlled by its controlling shareholder or employment by, or provision of servicesto, any such company for consideration, either directly or indirectly, including through a corporation controlled by the former external director. Thisrestriction extends for a period of two years with regard to the former external director and his or her spouse or child and for one year with respect to otherrelatives of the former external director. If at the time at which an external director is appointed all members of the board of directors who are not controlling shareholders or relatives ofcontrolling shareholders of the company are of the same gender, the external director to be appointed must be of the other gender. A director of one companymay not be appointed as an external director of another company if a director of the other company is acting as an external director of the first company atsuch time. According to the Israeli Companies Law and regulations promulgated thereunder, a person may be appointed as an external director only if he or shehas professional qualifications or if he or she has accounting and financial expertise (each, as defined below); provided that at least one of the externaldirectors must be determined by our board of directors to have accounting and financial expertise. However, if at least one of our other directors (i) meets theindependence requirements under the Exchange Act, (ii) meets the standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market rules for membership on the audit committee and(iii) has accounting and financial expertise as defined under the Israeli Companies Law, then neither of our external directors is required to possessaccounting and financial expertise as long as each possesses the requisite professional qualifications. A director with accounting and financial expertise is a director who, due to his or her education, experience and skills, possesses an expertise in, andan understanding of, financial and accounting matters and financial statements, such that he or she is able to understand the financial statements of thecompany and initiate a discussion about the presentation of financial data. A director is deemed to have professional qualifications if he or she has any of (i)an academic degree in economics, business management, accounting, law or public administration, (ii) an academic degree or has completed another form ofhigher education in the primary field of business of the company or in a field which is relevant to his/her position in the company or (iii) at least five years ofexperience serving in one of the following capacities, or at least five years of cumulative experience serving in two or more of the following capacities: (a) asenior business management position in a company with a significant volume of business, (b) a senior position in the company’s primary field of business or(c) a senior position in public administration or service. The board of directors is charged with determining whether a director possesses financial andaccounting expertise or professional qualifications. Our board of directors has determined that Sharon Kochan has accounting and financial expertise and possesses professional qualifications asrequired under the Israeli Companies Law. Leadership Structure of the Board In accordance with the Israeli Companies Law and our articles of association, our board of directors is required to appoint one of its members to serveas chairman of the board of directors. Our board of directors has appointed Stefan T. Wills to serve as chairman of the board of directors. 89 Audit Committee Israeli Companies Law requirements Under the Israeli Companies Law, we are required to have an audit committee comprised of at least three directors, including all of the externaldirectors, one of whom must serve as chairman of the committee. The audit committee may not include the chairman of the board, a controlling shareholder ofthe company, a relative of a controlling shareholder, a director employed by or providing services on a regular basis to the company, to a controllingshareholder or to an entity controlled by a controlling shareholder, or a director who derives most of his or her income from a controlling shareholder. Inaddition, under the Israeli Companies Law, the audit committee of a publicly traded company must consist of a majority of unaffiliated directors. In general,an “unaffiliated director’’ under the Israeli Companies Law is defined as either an external director or as a director who meets the following criteria: ·he or she meets the qualifications for being appointed as an external director, except for the requirement (i) that the director be an Israeli resident(which does not apply to companies such as ours whose securities have been offered outside of Israel or are listed for trading outside of Israel)and (ii) for accounting and financial expertise or professional qualifications; and ·he or she has not served as a director of the company for a period exceeding nine consecutive years. For this purpose, a break of less than twoyears in the service shall not be deemed to interrupt the continuation of the service. Nasdaq listing rules Under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, we are required to maintain an audit committee consisting of at least three independent directors, each ofwhom is financially literate and one of whom has accounting or related financial management expertise or, if we choose to follow requirements under Israelilaw, we must disclose that fact in this annual report. Our audit committee consists of Sharon Kochan (chairperson), Vickie R. Driver and Nissim Mashiach, each of whom is an independent director inaccordance with Rule 10A‑3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act and satisfies the independent director requirements under the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Allmembers of our audit committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Our board of directors hasdetermined that Sharon Kochan is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in the SEC regulations. Audit committee role Our board of directors has adopted an audit committee charter that sets forth the responsibilities of the audit committee consistent with the rules andregulations of the SEC and the Nasdaq Stock Market rules, as well as the requirements for such committee under the Israeli Companies Law, including thefollowing: ·oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm and recommending the engagement, compensation or termination ofengagement of our independent registered public accounting firm to the board of directors in accordance with Israeli law; ·recommending the engagement or termination of the person filling the office of our internal auditor; and ·recommending the terms of audit and non‑audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm for pre‑approval by ourboard of directors. Our audit committee provides assistance to our board of directors in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations in matters involving ouraccounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control and legal compliance functions by pre‑approving the services performed by our independentaccountants and reviewing their reports regarding our accounting practices and systems of internal control over financial reporting. Our audit committee alsooversees the audit efforts of our independent accountants and takes those actions that it deems necessary to satisfy itself that the accountants are independentof management. 90 Under the Israeli Companies Law, our audit committee is responsible for: ·determining whether there are deficiencies in the business management practices of our company, including in consultation with our internalauditor or the independent auditor, and making recommendations to the board of directors to improve such practices; ·determining whether to approve certain related party transactions (including transactions in which an office holder has a personal interest andwhether such transaction is extraordinary or material under the Israeli Companies Law) (see “—Approval of Related Party Transactions UnderIsraeli Law”); ·establishing the approval process (including, potentially, the approval of the audit committee and conducting a competitive proceduresupervised by the audit committee) for certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personalinterest; ·where the board of directors approves the working plan of the internal auditor, examining such working plan before its submission to the boardof directors and proposing amendments thereto; ·examining our internal audit controls and internal auditor’s performance, including whether the internal auditor has sufficient resources andtools to fulfill his responsibilities; ·examining the scope of our auditor’s work and compensation and submitting a recommendation with respect thereto to our board of directors orshareholders, depending on which of them is considering the appointment of our auditor; and ·establishing procedures for the handling of employees’ complaints as to the management of our business and the protection to be provided tosuch employees. Our audit committee may not approve any actions requiring its approval (see “—Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law”), unlessat the time of the approval a majority of the committee’s members are present, which majority consists of unaffiliated directors including at least one externaldirector. Compensation Committee and Compensation Policy Our Compensation Committee consists of Sharon Kochan (chairperson), Vickie R. Driver and Nissim Mashiach, each of whom is independent underthe Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Under the Israeli Companies Law, the board of directors of a public company must appoint a compensation committee. The compensation committeemust be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors, who must constitute a majority of the members of, and include thechairperson of, the compensation committee. However, subject to certain exceptions, Israeli companies whose securities are traded on stock exchanges suchas the Nasdaq Global Market, and who do not have a controlling shareholder, do not have to meet this majority requirement so long as the compensationcommittee meets other Israeli Companies Law composition requirements, as well as the requirements of the jurisdiction where the company’s securities aretraded. Each compensation committee member who is not an external director must be a director whose compensation does not exceed an amount that may bepaid to an external director. The compensation committee is subject to the same Israeli Companies Law restrictions as the audit committee as to who may notbe a member of the compensation committee. The duties of the compensation committee include the recommendation to the company’s board of directors of a policy regarding the terms ofengagement of office holders, which we refer to as a compensation policy. That policy must be adopted by the company’s board of directors, after consideringthe recommendations of the compensation committee, and must be approved by the company’s shareholders, which approval requires what we refer to as aSpecial Majority Approval for Compensation. Special Majority Approval for Compensation requires shareholder approval by a majority vote of the sharespresent and voting at a meeting of shareholders called for such purpose, provided that either (a) such majority includes at least a majority of the shares heldby all shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in such compensation arrangement or (b) the total number ofshares of non-controlling shareholders and shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the compensation arrangement and who vote against thearrangement does not exceed 2% of the company’s aggregate voting rights. 91 We have adopted a compensation policy, which serves as the basis for decisions concerning the financial terms of employment or engagement ofoffice holders, including exculpation, insurance, indemnification or any monetary payment or obligation of payment or other benefit in respect ofemployment or engagement. Under the Israeli Companies Law, the compensation policy must relate to certain factors, including advancement of thecompany’s objectives, the company’s business plan and its long-term strategy, and creation of appropriate incentives for office holders. It must also consider,among other things, the company’s risk management, size and the nature of its operations. The compensation policy must furthermore consider the followingadditional factors: ·the knowledge, skills, expertise and accomplishments of the relevant office holder; ·the office holder’s roles and responsibilities and prior compensation agreements with him or her; ·the relationship between the terms offered and the average compensation of the other employees of the company, including those employedthrough manpower companies; ·the impact of disparities in salary upon work relationships in the company; ·the possibility of reducing variable compensation at the discretion of the board of directors; ·the possibility of setting a limit on the exercise value of non-cash variable equity-based compensation; and ·as to severance compensation, the period of service of the office holder, the terms of his or her compensation during such service period, thecompany’s performance during that period of service, the person’s contribution towards the company’s achievement of its goals and themaximization of its profits, and the circumstances under which the person is leaving the company. The compensation policy must also include the following principles: ·the link between variable compensation and long-term performance, which variable compensation shall, other than office holder who report tothe CEO, be primarily based on measurable criteria; ·the relationship between variable and fixed compensation, and the ceiling for the value of variable compensation; ·the conditions under which an office holder would be required to repay compensation paid to him or her if it was later shown that the data uponwhich such compensation was based was inaccurate and was required to be restated in the company’s financial statements; ·the minimum holding or vesting period for variable, equity-based compensation; and ·maximum limits for severance compensation. The compensation committee is responsible for (a) recommending the compensation policy to the company’s board of directors for its approval (andsubsequent approval by its shareholders) and (b) duties related to the compensation policy and to the compensation of a company’s office holders as well asfunctions previously fulfilled by a company’s audit committee with respect to matters related to approval of the terms of engagement of office holders,including: ·recommending whether a compensation policy should continue in effect, if the then-current policy has a term of greater than three years(approval of either a new compensation policy or the continuation of an existing compensation policy must in any case occur every three years,other than following a company’s initial public offering, in which case such approval must occur within 5 years of the initial public offering); 92 ·recommending to the board of directors periodic updates to the compensation policy and assessing implementation of the compensation policy; ·approving compensation terms of executive officers, directors and employees that require approval of the compensation committee; ·determining whether the compensation terms of a chief executive officer nominee, which were determined pursuant to the compensation policy,will be exempt from approval of the shareholders because such approval would harm the ability to engage with such nominee; and ·determining, subject to the approval of the board and under special circumstances, whether to override a determination of the company’sshareholders regarding certain compensation related issues. Nasdaq listing rules Under Nasdaq corporate governance rules, we are required to maintain a compensation committee consisting of at least two independent directors or,if we choose to follow requirements under Israeli law, we must disclose that fact in this annual report. Each of the members of the compensation committee isrequired to be independent under Nasdaq rules relating to compensation committee members, which are different from the general test for independence ofboard and committee members. Each of the members of our compensation committee satisfies those requirements. Compensation committee role Our board of directors has adopted a compensation committee charter setting forth the responsibilities of the compensation committee, whichinclude: ·the responsibilities set forth in the compensation policy; ·reviewing and approving the granting of options and other incentive awards to the extent such authority is delegated by our board of directors;and ·reviewing, evaluating and making recommendations regarding the compensation and benefits for our non-employee directors. Internal Auditor Under the Israeli Companies Law, the board of directors of an Israeli public company must appoint an internal auditor recommended by the auditcommittee. An internal auditor may not be: ·a person (or a relative of a person) who holds 5% or more of the company’s outstanding shares or voting rights; ·a person (or a relative of a person) who has the power to appoint a director or the general manager of the company (i.e., the chief executiveofficer); ·an office holder (including a director) of the company (or a relative thereof); or ·a member of the company’s independent accounting firm, or anyone on its behalf. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, our compliance with applicable law and orderly business procedures. The audit committee is required to oversee the activities and to assess the performance of the internal auditor as well as to review the internalauditor’s work plan. Our internal auditor is Mr. Yisrael Gewirtz. 93 Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law Fiduciary Duties of Directors and Executive Officers The Israeli Companies Law codifies the fiduciary duties that office holders owe to a company. Each person listed in the table under “—ExecutiveOfficers and Directors” is an office holder under the Israeli Companies Law. An office holder’s fiduciary duties consist of a duty of care and a duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the level ofcare with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would have acted under the same circumstances. The duty of loyalty requires that an officeholder act in good faith and in the best interests of the company. The duty of care includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain: ·information on the advisability of a given action brought for his or her approval or performed by virtue of his or her position; and ·all other important information pertaining to any such action. The duty of loyalty includes a duty to: ·refrain from any conflict of interest between the performance of his or her duties to the company and his or her other duties or personal affairs; ·refrain from any activity that is competitive with the business of the company; ·refrain from exploiting any business opportunity of the company to receive a personal gain for himself or herself or others; and ·disclose to the company any information or documents relating to the company’s affairs which the office holder received as a result of his or herposition as an office holder. Disclosure of personal interests of an office holder and approval of certain transactions The Israeli Companies Law requires that an office holder promptly disclose to the board of directors any personal interest that he or she may beaware of and all related material information or documents concerning any existing or proposed transaction with the company. An interested office holder’sdisclosure must be made promptly and in any event no later than the first meeting of the board of directors at which the transaction is considered. A personalinterest includes an interest of any person in an act or transaction of a company, including a personal interest of such person’s relative or of a corporate bodyin which such person or a relative of such person is a 5% or greater shareholder, director or general manager or in which he or she has the right to appoint atleast one director or the general manager, but excluding a personal interest stemming from one’s ownership of shares in the company. A personal interest furthermore includes the personal interest of a person for whom the office holder holds a voting proxy or the personal interest ofthe office holder with respect to his or her vote on behalf of a person for whom he or she holds a proxy even if such shareholder has no personal interest in thematter. An office holder is not, however, obliged to disclose a personal interest if it derives solely from the personal interest of his or her relative in atransaction that is not considered an extraordinary transaction. Under the Israeli Companies Law, an extraordinary transaction is defined as any of thefollowing: ·a transaction other than in the ordinary course of business; ·a transaction that is not on market terms; or ·a transaction that may have a material impact on a company’s profitability, assets or liabilities. 94 If it is determined that an office holder has a personal interest in a transaction which is not an extraordinary transaction, approval by the board ofdirectors is required for the transaction, unless the company’s articles of association provide for a different method of approval. Further, so long as an officeholder has disclosed his or her personal interest in a transaction, the board of directors may approve an action by the office holder that would otherwise bedeemed a breach of his or her duty of loyalty. However, a company may not approve a transaction or action that is not in the best interest of the company orthat is not performed by the office holder in good faith. An extraordinary transaction in which an office holder has a personal interest requires approval firstby the company’s audit committee and subsequently by the board of directors. The compensation of, or an undertaking to indemnify or insure, an officeholder who is not a director requires approval first by the company’s compensation committee, then by the company’s board of directors. If suchcompensation arrangement or an undertaking to indemnify or insure is inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy, or if the office holder isthe chief executive officer (apart from a number of specific exceptions), then such arrangement is further subject to a Special Majority Approval forCompensation. Arrangements regarding the compensation, indemnification or insurance of a director require the approval of the compensation committee,board of directors and shareholders by ordinary majority, in that order, and under certain circumstances, a Special Majority Approval for Compensation. Generally, a person who has a personal interest in a matter which is considered at a meeting of the board of directors or the audit committee may notbe present at such a meeting or vote on that matter unless the chairman of the relevant committee or board of directors (as applicable) determines that he orshe should be present in order to present the transaction that is subject to approval. If a majority of the members of the audit committee or the board ofdirectors (as applicable) has a personal interest in the approval of a transaction, then all directors may participate in discussions of the audit committee or theboard of directors (as applicable) on such transaction and the voting on approval thereof, but shareholder approval is also required for such transaction. Disclosure of personal interests of controlling shareholders and approval of certain transactions Pursuant to Israeli law, the disclosure requirements regarding personal interests that apply to directors and executive officers also apply to acontrolling shareholder of a public company. In the context of a transaction involving a shareholder of the company, a controlling shareholder also includesa shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the company if no other shareholder holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the company.For this purpose, the holdings of all shareholders who have a personal interest in the same transaction will be aggregated. The approval of the auditcommittee or the compensation committee, the board of directors and the shareholders of the company, in that order, is required for (a) extraordinarytransactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, (b) the engagement with a controlling shareholder orhis or her relative, directly or indirectly, including through a company under the control of the controlling shareholder, for the provision of services to thecompany, (c) the terms of engagement and compensation of a controlling shareholder or his or her relative who is an office holder or (d) the employment of acontrolling shareholder or his or her relative by the company, other than as an office holder. In addition, the shareholder approval requires one of thefollowing, which we refer to as a Special Majority: ·at least a majority of the shares held by all shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting atthe meeting approves the transaction, excluding abstentions; or ·the shares voted against the transaction by shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction and who are present and voting at themeeting do not exceed 2% of the voting rights in the company. To the extent that any such transaction with a controlling shareholder is for a period extending beyond three years, approval is required once everythree years, unless, with respect to certain transactions, the audit committee determines that the duration of the transaction is reasonable given thecircumstances related thereto. Arrangements regarding the compensation, indemnification or insurance of a controlling shareholder in his or her capacity asan office holder require the approval of the compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders by a Special Majority, in that order, and the termsthereof may not be inconsistent with the company’s stated compensation policy. Pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law, certain transactions with a controlling shareholder or his or her relative, orwith directors, that would otherwise require approval of a company’s shareholders may be exempt from shareholder approval upon certain determinations ofthe audit committee and board of directors. As of March 15, 2019, Clal Biotechnology Industries Ltd. beneficially owned or controlled, directly and indirectly, 34.7% of our issued andoutstanding ordinary shares. 95 Shareholder duties Pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, a shareholder has a duty to act in good faith and in a customary manner toward the company and othershareholders and to refrain from abusing his or her power in the company, including, among other things, in voting at a general meeting and at shareholderclass meetings with respect to the following matters: ·an amendment to the company’s articles of association; ·an increase of the company’s authorized share capital; ·a merger; or ·the approval of related party transactions and acts of office holders that require shareholder approval. A shareholder also has a general duty to refrain from discriminating against other shareholders. In addition, certain shareholders have a duty offairness toward the company. These shareholders include any controlling shareholder, any shareholder who knows that he or she has the power to determinethe outcome of a shareholder vote and any shareholder who has the power to appoint or to prevent the appointment of an office holder of the company orother power towards the company. The Israeli Companies Law does not define the substance of the duty of fairness, except to state that the remedies generallyavailable upon a breach of contract will also apply in the event of a breach of the duty to act with fairness. Exculpation, Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Officers Under the Israeli Companies Law, a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty. An Israelicompany may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of abreach of duty of care but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our articles of association include such aprovision. A company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising out of a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders. Under the Israeli Companies Law, a company may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities and expenses incurred for actsperformed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles ofassociation include a provision authorizing such indemnification: ·financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitrator’s awardapproved by a court. However, if an undertaking to indemnify an office holder with respect to such liability is provided in advance, then suchan undertaking must be limited to events which, in the opinion of the board of directors, can be foreseen based on the company’s activitieswhen the undertaking to indemnify is given, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the board of directors as reasonable underthe circumstances, and such undertaking shall detail the abovementioned foreseen events and amount or criteria; ·reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder (1) as a result of an investigation or proceeding institutedagainst him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (i) no indictment was filed againstsuch office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding, and (ii) no financial liability was imposed upon him or her as a substitute forthe criminal proceeding as a result of such investigation or proceeding or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect toan offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and (2) in connection with a monetary sanction; and 96 ·reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court in proceedings instituted againsthim or her by the company, on its behalf, or by a third party, or in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder wasacquitted, or as a result of a conviction for an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent. Under the Israeli Companies Law, a company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed by him or heras an office holder, if and to the extent provided in the company’s articles of association: ·a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that theact would not harm the company; ·a breach of duty of care to the company or to a third party, to the extent such a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;and ·a financial liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party. Under the Israeli Companies Law, a company may not indemnify, exculpate or insure an office holder against any of the following: ·a breach of the duty of loyalty, except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company to the extent that theoffice holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company; ·a breach of duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder; ·an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or ·a fine or forfeit levied against the office holder. Under the Israeli Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by thecompensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders. See“—Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law.” Our articles of association permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted or to be permitted by theIsraeli Companies Law. We have obtained directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of our office holders and intend to continue to maintainsuch coverage and pay all premiums thereunder to the fullest extent permitted by the Israeli Companies Law. In addition, we have entered into agreementswith each of our directors and executive officers exculpating them from liability to us for damages caused to us as a result of a breach of duty of care andundertaking to indemnify them, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by our articles of association and Israeli Law. The maximum indemnification amount set forth in such agreements is limited to an amount equal to the greater of (x) 25% of our total shareholders’equity based on our most recently financial statements of the time of the actual payment of the indemnification or (y) $25 million. The maximum amount setforth in such agreements is in addition to amounts actually paid, if any, under insurance policies and/or by a third-party pursuant to an indemnificationarrangement.

The LR License Agreement may be terminated by LR or us, subject to the dispute resolution procedures contained in the LR LicenseAgreement, as a result of a material breach by the other party when such breach has not been cured within thirty days of written notification, or the otherparty’s liquidation or entering into any arrangement with its creditors. We may also terminate the LR License Agreement at any time, in whole or in part, bygiving LR 90 days’ written notice and we shall have no obligation to compensate LR as a result of such termination. In consideration for the LR License Agreement, we have agreed to make a one-time payment of $64,000 within 60 days following the receipt ofmarketing authorization with respect to products we develop pursuant to the LR License Agreement in the US or the EU. In addition, we undertook to payroyalties of 10% from net sales of product developed pursuant to the LR License Agreement and 10% of all consideration actually received by us fromsublicensing the Licensed Products. In the event that a Competitor Product, as defined in the LR License Agreement, is marketed in certain territories, theroyalty payments or sublicense fees paid by us to LR in that territory will be reduced to 5%. Sub-Lease Agreement In January 2018, we entered into a sub-lease agreement (the “Sub-Lease Agreement”), with Clal Life Sciences, L.P. (“CLS”), a subsidiary of CBI, ourindirect parent company, which was amended in February 2019. Pursuant to the Sub-Lease Agreement, we currently sublease approximately 32,300 squarefeet of laboratory, office and clean room space from CLS and our yearly rent is $385,000. The Sub-Lease Agreement is scheduled to expire on October 30,2022. The sub-lease agreement include an option to extend the lease period for additional 3 years at our sole discretion. Agreements with Directors and Officers We have entered into employment agreements with each of our executive officers, which include standard provisions for a company in our industryregarding non-competition/solicitation, confidentiality of information and assignment of inventions. However, the enforceability of the non-competitionprovisions may be limited under applicable law. Our executive officers will not receive benefits upon the termination of their respective employment with us,other than payment of salary and benefits (and limited accrual of vacation days) during the required notice period for termination of their employment, whichvaries for each individual. Options. Since our inception, we have granted options to purchase our ordinary shares to our officers and certain of our directors. Such optionagreements may contain acceleration provisions upon certain merger, acquisition or change of control transactions. We describe our option plans under“ITEM 6.B.

Compensation—2014 Equity Incentive Plan.” If an executive officer isinvoluntarily terminated without cause or the executive officer voluntarily terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the employmentagreement), all options will immediately vest. Upon the consummation of a merger or acquisition transaction, an executive officer’s options will be assumedor substituted by the surviving company, if applicable, or, in the compensation committee’s sole discretion, will vest immediately or be amended, modifiedor terminated. Our compensation committee approved accelerated vesting in the case of a merger or an acquisition transaction for certain of our directors andexecutive officers with respect to the option grants dated December 23, 2015, June 22, 2017, January 16, 2018 and December 31, 2018. Exculpation, indemnification and insurance. Our articles of association permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure each of our directors and officeholders to the fullest extent permitted by the Israeli Companies Law. Additionally, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of ourdirectors and executive officers, undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by Israeli law, including with respect to liabilities resultingfrom a public offering of our shares, to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. We have also obtained Directors and Officers insurancefor each of our executive officers and directors. See “ITEM 6.C.

C.Interests of Experts and Counsel Not applicable. Item 8.FINANCIAL INFORMATION A.Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information Consolidated Financial Statements We have appended our consolidated financial statements at the end of this annual report, starting at page F-2, as part of this annual report. Legal Proceedings From time to time, we may be party to litigation or subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. On September 15, 2014, a statement of claim was filed against the company by certain shareholders of PolyHeal. The plaintiffs allege that thecompany is obligated to pay them a total amount of approximately $1.5 million in exchange for their respective portion of PolyHeal’s shares, following themilestone occurrence under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. This claim arises out of a dispute with Teva under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement. On December14, 2014, the company filed a petition for a right to defend (the “Petition”) with the Tel Aviv-Jaffa District Court, in which the company: (i) rejected thearguments raised against it in the statement of claim; (ii) emphasized that its obligation under the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement to purchase the 7.5% ofPolyHeal’s shares is subject to the consumption of the deferred closing, as defined in the 2010 PolyHeal Agreement, including the receipt of the funds fromTeva on a “back to back” basis; and (iii) stated that since no such payment has been made by Teva, the company is not subject to any obligation to purchasePolyHeal shares and/or make any payments to PolyHeal’s shareholders. On November 13, 2017, the Tel Aviv-Jaffa District Court issued a ruling in favor of the plaintiffs. The court ruled that we are obligated to purchasePolyHeal’s shares for approximately $6.75 million plus applicable interest (totaled in $7.5 million as of the ruling date), which represents the purchase pricefor the total number of shares that the PolyHeal Agreements contemplate would be acquired by the Company from the shareholders of PolyHeal. The Courtordered that we are obligated to purchase shares in PolyHeal from the plaintiffs, on the basis of their actual share holdings in PolyHeal as of January 15, 2013,for approximately $1.3 million plus applicable interest (totaled in $1.5 million as of the ruling date), within 15 days from the date of the Court’s ruling. OnDecember 27, 2017, we filed an appeal to the Supreme Court over the said ruling, alleging, among other things, that the agreement according to which theruling was granted was misinterpreted by the District Court. We further alleged that both the wording of the agreement and the conduct of the partiesthereunder prove that our obligation to purchase PolyHeal’s shares was subject to the prior receipt of funds, which were never received, from Teva. OnJanuary 30, 2018, certain PolyHeal shareholders filed a cross appeal, alleging that they are entitled to receive from us a full repayment of their counsel’s feesin a sum equal to 12.5% of the consideration to be paid for their shares. Accordingly, a full provision for the purchase price of the shares plus the accrued interest, totaling $7.5 million was recorded within the loss fromdiscontinued operations in 2017 in respect of this claim, of which approximately $1.5 million was paid to plaintiffs in consideration for PolyHeal’s shares. 102 On March 24, 2019, we entered into the PolyHeal Settlement with the plaintiffs, which contingent upon the Supreme Court’s approval of thePolyHeal Settlement Agreement, settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that we and the plaintiffs had, has or may have to the other party under, inconnection with or arising out of the transactions described above. Pursuant to the terms of this PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, the plaintiffs will repay tothe company a non-material portion of the amount that was ruled in their favor under the 2017 Ruling, and the Israeli Supreme Court will approve and acceptthe appeal that was filed by us on December, 2017, cancel the 2017 Ruling that was issued by the District Court against us, and reject the Cross-Appeal.However, if the Israeli Supreme Court does not approve of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement or refuses to take the actions requested from the court in thePolyHeal Settlement Agreement, these matters may result in the continuation of the existing litigation or new litigation or arbitration proceedings, any ofwhich would materially increase our expenses and may disrupt our management’s focus on our business. See “ITEM 3.D. Risk Factors—We may haveliabilities under our former agreements with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and PolyHeal Ltd.” On March 24, 2019, we entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release (the “Teva Settlement Agreement”) with Teva, whichcontingent upon the Supreme Court’s approval of the PolyHeal Settlement Agreement, which settles any and all debts, obligations or liabilities that eachparty or any of its controlled affiliates had or has to the other party or any of its controlled affiliates under, in connection with or arising out of certaintransactions and agreements entered into between us and Teva from 2007 to 2012 (collectively, the “Collaboration Agreements”), which have terminatedeffective as of December 31, 2012 and September 2, 2013, as applicable, and which related to NexoBrid, and PolyHeal, including the above PolyHealmilestone and certain payments, which are primarily reimbursement for development and manufacturing costs, that we believed were to be borne by Tevathrough the effective date of termination of such Collaboration Agreements in December 2012. Pursuant to the terms of the Teva Settlement Agreement, Teva has agreed to pay us $4.0 million in cash, and to reduce the contingent considerationthat is payable to Teva pursuant to the our repurchase of our shares from Teva in 2013, so that we will be obligated to pay Teva annual payments at a reducedrate of 15% of its recognized revenues from the sale or license of NexoBrid after January 1, 2019, up to a reduced aggregate amount of $10.2 million. Inaddition, we also agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Teva and its controlled affiliates from and against claims relating to a certain milestonerelated to PolyHeal under an agreement associated with the Collaboration Agreements, up to an amount of $10 million, if a notice of such claim has beenreceived by us prior to December 31, 2023. Dividend Policy We have never declared or paid cash dividends to our shareholders and we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intendto reinvest any earnings in developing and expanding our business. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be at the discretion of ourboard of directors and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions,capital requirements, business prospects, our strategic goals and plans to expand our business, applicable law and other factors that our board of directors maydeem relevant. B. Significant Changes No significant changes have occurred since December 31, 2018, except as otherwise disclosed in this annual report. Item 9.THE OFFER AND LISTING A. Listing Details Our ordinary shares have been traded on Nasdaq under the symbol “MDWD”. As of March 15, 2019, we had 9 holders of record of our ordinary shares. The actual number of shareholders is greater than this number of recordholders, and includes shareholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held in street name by brokers and other nominees. 103 B. Plan of Distribution Not applicable. C. Markets See “—Listing Details” above. D. Selling Shareholders Not applicable. E. Dilution Not applicable. F. Expenses of the Issue Not applicable. Item 10.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION A. Share Capital Not applicable. B. Articles of Association Our authorized share capital consists of 37,244,508 ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share, of which 27,178,839 shares are issued andoutstanding as of March 15, 2019. All of our outstanding ordinary shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Our ordinary shares are not redeemable and do not have anypreemptive rights. Our prior articles were replaced in March 2014 by new articles of association and at which time all of our issued and outstanding preferred sharesconverted into ordinary shares. On June 2018, we amended the articles by increasing the share capital of the Company to NIS 372,445.08 divided into37,244,508 of our ordinary shares. The description below is a summary of the material provisions of our new articles of association and of the CompaniesLaw. Voting rights and conversion. All ordinary shares have identical voting and other rights in all respects. Transfer of shares Our fully paid ordinary shares are issued in registered form and may be freely transferred under our articles of association, unless the transfer isrestricted or prohibited by another instrument, applicable law or the rules of a stock exchange on which the shares are listed for trade. The ownership orvoting of our ordinary shares by non-residents of Israel is not restricted in any way by our articles of association or the laws of the State of Israel, except forownership by nationals of some countries that are, or have been, in a state of war with Israel. Election of directors Our ordinary shares do not have cumulative voting rights for the election of directors. As a result, the holders of a majority of the voting powerrepresented at a meeting of shareholders have the power to elect all of our directors, subject to the special approval requirements for external directorsdescribed under “ITEM 6.C. Board Practices—External Directors.” Under our articles of association, our board of directors must consist of at least five andnot more than nine directors, including at least two external directors required to be appointed under the Israeli Companies Law. At any time the minimumnumber of directors (other than the external directors) shall not fall below three. Pursuant to our articles of association, each of our directors, other than theexternal directors, for whom special election requirements apply under the Israeli Companies Law, will be appointed by a simple majority vote of holders ofour voting shares, participating and voting at an annual general meeting of our shareholders. Each director will serve until his or her successor is duly electedand qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal by a vote of the majority voting power of our shareholders at a general meeting of ourshareholders or until his or her office expires by operation of law, in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law. In addition, our articles of association allowour board of directors to appoint directors to fill vacancies on the board of directors to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders. Externaldirectors are elected for an initial term of three years, may be elected for additional terms of three years each under certain circumstances, and may be removedfrom office pursuant to the terms of the Israeli Companies Law. Under regulations recently promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law, Israeli publiccompanies whose shares are traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Global Market and that lack a controlling shareholder are exemptfrom the requirement to appoint external directors. See “ITEM 6.C. Board Practices—Board of Directors and External Directors.” 104 Dividend and liquidation rights We may declare a dividend to be paid to the holders of our ordinary shares in proportion to their respective shareholdings. Under the IsraeliCompanies Law, dividend distributions are determined by the board of directors and do not require the approval of the shareholders of a company unless thecompany’s articles of association provide otherwise. Our articles of association do not require shareholder approval of a dividend distribution and providethat dividend distributions may be determined by our board of directors. Pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, the distribution amount is limited to the greater of retained earnings or earnings generated over the previoustwo years, according to our then last reviewed or audited financial statements, provided that the end of the period to which the financial statements relate isnot more than six months prior to the date of the distribution. If we do not meet such criteria, then we may distribute dividends only with court approval. Ineach case, we are only permitted to distribute a dividend if our board of directors and the court, if applicable, determines that there is no reasonable concernthat payment of the dividend will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due. In the event of our liquidation, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors, our assets will be distributed to the holders of our ordinary shares inproportion to their shareholdings. This right, as well as the right to receive dividends, may be affected by the grant of preferential dividend or distributionrights to the holders of a class of shares with preferential rights that may be authorized in the future. Exchange controls There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on remittances of dividends on our ordinary shares, proceeds from the sale of the shares orinterest or other payments to non-residents of Israel, except for shareholders who are subjects of countries that are, or have been, in a state of war with Israel. Shareholder meetings Under Israeli law, we are required to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year that must be held no later than 15months after the date of the previous annual general meeting. All meetings other than the annual general meeting of shareholders are referred to in our articlesof association as extraordinary general meetings. Our board of directors may call extraordinary general meetings whenever it sees fit, at such time and place,within or outside of Israel, as it may determine. In addition, the Israeli Companies Law provides that our board of directors is required to convene anextraordinary general meeting upon the written request of (i) any two or more of our directors or one-quarter or more of the members of our board of directorsor (ii) one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, either (a) 5% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding voting power or(b) 5% or more of our outstanding voting power. Subject to the provisions of the Israeli Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote atgeneral meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the board of directors, which may generally be between four and 21 days prior tothe date of the meeting and in certain circumstances, between four and 40 days prior to the date of the meeting. Furthermore, the Israeli Companies Lawrequires that resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders: ·amendments to our articles of association; 105 ·appointment or termination of our auditors; ·appointment of external directors; ·approval of certain related party transactions; ·increases or reductions of our authorized share capital; ·a merger; and ·the exercise of our board of director’s powers by a general meeting, if our board of directors is unable to exercise its powers and the exercise ofany of its powers is required for our proper management. The Israeli Companies Law requires that a notice of any annual general meeting or extraordinary general meeting be provided to shareholders atleast 21 days prior to the meeting and if the agenda of the meeting includes the appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with officeholders or interested or related parties, or an approval of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to the meeting. Under the Israeli Companies Law and under our articles of association, shareholders are not permitted to take action by way of written consent inlieu of a meeting. Voting Rights Quorum requirements Pursuant to our articles of association, holders of our ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share held on all matters submitted toa vote before the shareholders at a general meeting. As a foreign private issuer, the quorum required for our general meetings of shareholders consists of atleast two shareholders present in person, by proxy or written ballot who hold or represent between them at least 25% of the total outstanding voting rights. Ameeting adjourned for lack of a quorum is generally adjourned to the same day in the following week at the same time and place or to a later time or date if sospecified in the notice of the meeting. At the reconvened meeting, any two or more shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a lawfulquorum. Vote requirements Our articles of association provide that all resolutions of our shareholders require a simple majority vote, unless otherwise required by the IsraeliCompanies Law or by our articles of association. Under the Israeli Companies Law, each of (i) the approval of an extraordinary transaction with a controllingshareholder and (ii) the terms of employment or other engagement of the controlling shareholder of the company or such controlling shareholder’s relative(even if such terms are not extraordinary) requires the approval described above under “ITEM 6.C. Board Practices—Approval of Related Party TransactionsUnder Israeli Law—Disclosure of personal interests of controlling shareholders and approval of certain transactions.” Under our articles of association, thealteration of the rights, privileges, preferences or obligations of any class of our shares requires a simple majority of the class so affected (or such otherpercentage of the relevant class that may be set forth in the governing documents relevant to such class), in addition to the ordinary majority vote of allclasses of shares voting together as a single class at a shareholder meeting. Further exceptions to the simple majority vote requirement are a resolution for the voluntary winding up, or an approval of a scheme of arrangementor reorganization, of the company pursuant to Section 350 of the Israeli Companies Law, which requires the approval of holders of 75% of the voting rightsrepresented at the meeting and voting on the resolution. 106 Access to corporate records Under the Israeli Companies Law, shareholders are provided access to: minutes of our general meetings; our shareholders register and principalshareholders register, articles of association and annual audited financial statements; and any document that we are required by law to file publicly with theIsraeli Companies Registrar or the Israel Securities Authority. In addition, shareholders may request any document related to an action or transactionrequiring shareholder approval under the related party transaction provisions of the Israeli Companies Law. We may deny this request if we believe it has notbeen made in good faith or if such denial is necessary to protect our interest or protect a trade secret or patent. Modification of class rights Under the Israeli Companies Law and our articles of association, the rights attached to any class of share, such as voting, liquidation and dividendrights, may be amended by adoption of a resolution by the holders of a majority of the shares of that class present at a separate class meeting, or otherwise inaccordance with the rights attached to such class of shares, as set forth in our articles of association. Registration rights We have entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with certain of our shareholders. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, holders ofa total of 11,640,827 of our ordinary shares have the right to require us to register these shares under the Securities Act under specified circumstances and willhave incidental registration rights as described below. After registration pursuant to these rights, these shares will become freely tradable without restrictionunder the Securities Act. On March 7, 2016, the SEC declared effective our shelf registration statement on Form F-3, which registered the resale of the11,640,827 shares subject to registration rights. Demand registration rights At any time, the holders of a majority of the registrable securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) then outstanding may requestthat we file a registration statement with respect to a majority of the registrable securities then outstanding (or a lesser percentage if the anticipated aggregateoffering price, net of selling expenses, exceeds $5.0 million). Upon receipt of such registration request, we are obligated to file a registration statement.Currently, as we are eligible under applicable securities laws to file a registration statement on Form F-3, we may be required to effect up to two suchregistrations within any 12-month period. We will not be obligated to file a registration statement at such time if in the good faith judgment of our board of directors, such registration wouldbe materially detrimental to the company and its shareholders because such action would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporatereorganization or other similar transaction involving us, (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that we have a bona fide business purposefor preserving as confidential or (iii) render us unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. In addition, we have the rightnot to effect or take any action to effect a registration statement during the period that is 60 days (or 30 days in the case of a registration statement on Form F-3) before the date of filing our registration statement (as estimated by us in good faith), and ending on a date that is 180 days (or 90 days in the case of aregistration statement on Form F-3) after the date of such filing. Piggyback registration rights In addition, if we register any of our ordinary shares in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash, the holders of allregistrable securities are entitled to at least 10 days’ notice of the registration and to include all or a portion of their ordinary shares in the registration. If thepublic offering that we are effecting is underwritten, the right of any shareholder to include shares in the registration related thereto is conditioned upon theshareholder accepting the terms of the underwriting as agreed between us and the underwriters and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their solediscretion determine will not jeopardize the success of our offering. 107 Other provisions We will pay all registration expenses (other than underwriting discounts and selling commissions) and the reasonable fees and expenses of a singlecounsel for the selling shareholders, related to any demand or piggyback registration. The demand and piggyback registration rights described above willexpire on March 24, 2021, five years after our initial public offering. Acquisitions Under Israeli Law Full tender offer A person wishing to acquire shares of an Israeli public company and who would as a result hold over 90% of the target company’s issued andoutstanding share capital is required by the Israeli Companies Law to make a tender offer to all of the company’s shareholders for the purchase of all of theissued and outstanding shares of the company. A person wishing to acquire shares of a public Israeli company and who would as a result hold over 90% of theissued and outstanding share capital of a certain class of shares is required to make a tender offer to all of the shareholders who hold shares of the relevantclass for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of that class. If the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 5% of the issuedand outstanding share capital of the company or of the applicable class, and more than half of the shareholders who do not have a personal interest in theoffer accept the offer, all of the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to the acquirer by operation of law. However, a tender offer willalso be accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the company or of theapplicable class of shares. Upon a successful completion of such a full tender offer, any shareholder that was an offeree in such tender offer, whether such shareholder acceptedthe tender offer or not, may, within six months from the date of acceptance of the tender offer, petition an Israeli court to determine whether the tender offerwas for less than fair value and that the fair value should be paid as determined by the court. However, under certain conditions, the offeror may include in theterms of the tender offer that an offeree who accepted the offer will not be entitled to petition the Israeli court as described above. If a tender offer is not accepted in accordance with the requirements set forth above, the acquirer may not acquire shares from shareholders whoaccepted the tender offer that will increase its holdings to more than 90% of the company’s issued and outstanding share capital or of the applicable class. Special tender offer The Israeli Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares of an Israeli public company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as aresult of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company. This requirement does not apply if there isalready another holder of at least 25% of the voting rights in the company. Similarly, the Israeli Companies Law provides that an acquisition of shares in apublic company must be made by means of a special tender offer if as a result of the acquisition the purchaser would become a holder of more than 45% of thevoting rights in the company, if there is no other shareholder of the company who holds more than 45% of the voting rights in the company, subject tocertain exceptions. A special tender offer must be extended to all shareholders of a company but the offeror is not required to purchase shares representingmore than 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares, regardless of how many shares are tendered by shareholders. A specialtender offer may be consummated only if (i) the offeror acquired shares representing at least 5% of the voting power in the company and (ii) the number ofshares tendered by shareholders who accept the offer exceeds the number of shares held by shareholders who object to the offer (excluding the purchaser,controlling shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or any person having a personal interest in the acceptance of the tenderoffer). If a special tender offer is accepted, the purchaser or any person or entity controlling it or under common control with the purchaser or such controllingperson or entity may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the targetcompany for a period of one year from the date of the offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an offer or merger in theinitial special tender offer. 108 Merger The Israeli Companies Law permits merger transactions if approved by each party’s board of directors and, unless certain requirements describedunder the Israeli Companies Law are met, by a majority vote of each party’s shareholders. In the case of the target company, approval of the merger furtherrequires a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes of the shareholder vote, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if a majority of the votes of sharesrepresented at the meeting of shareholders that are held by parties other than the other party to the merger, or by any person (or group of persons acting inconcert) who holds (or hold, as the case may be) 25% or more of the voting rights or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other party, voteagainst the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company’s own controlling shareholder or if the controlling shareholder has a personalinterest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same Special Majority approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controllingshareholders (as described under “ITEM 6.C. Board Practices—Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law—Disclosure of personal interests ofcontrolling shareholders and approval of certain transactions.”) If the transaction would have been approved by the shareholders of a merging company but for the separate approval of each class or the exclusionof the votes of certain shareholders as provided above, a court may still approve the merger upon the petition of holders of at least 25% of the voting rights ofa company. For such petition to be granted, the court must find that the merger is fair and reasonable, taking into account the respective values assigned toeach of the parties to the merger and the consideration offered to the shareholders of the target company. Upon the request of a creditor of either party to theproposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that, as a result of the merger, the survivingcompany will be unable to satisfy the obligations of the merging entities, and may further give instructions to secure the rights of creditors. In addition, a merger may not be consummated unless at least 50 days have passed from the date on which a proposal for approval of the merger isfiled with the Israeli Registrar of Companies and at least 30 days have passed from the date on which the merger was approved by the shareholders of eachparty. Anti-takeover measures under Israeli law The Israeli Companies Law allows us to create and issue shares having rights different from those attached to our ordinary shares, including sharesproviding certain preferred rights with respect to voting, distributions or other matters and shares having preemptive rights. As of March 15, 2019, nopreferred shares are authorized under our articles of association. In the future, if we do authorize, create and issue a specific class of preferred shares, such classof shares, depending on the specific rights that may be attached to it, may have the ability to frustrate or prevent a takeover or otherwise prevent ourshareholders from realizing a potential premium over the market value of their ordinary shares. The authorization and designation of a class of preferredshares will require an amendment to our articles of association, which requires the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power attaching toour issued and outstanding shares at a general meeting. The convening of the meeting, the shareholders entitled to participate and the majority vote requiredto be obtained at such a meeting will be subject to the requirements set forth in the Israeli Companies Law as described above in “—Voting Rights.” Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent and registrar for our ordinary shares is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York.

D. Exchange Controls In 1998, Israeli currency control regulations were liberalized significantly, so that Israeli residents generally may freely deal in foreign currency andforeign assets, and non-residents may freely deal in Israeli currency and Israeli assets. There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions onremittances of dividends on the ordinary shares or the proceeds from the sale of the shares provided that all taxes were paid or withheld; however, legislationremains in effect pursuant to which currency controls can be imposed by administrative action at any time. Non-residents of Israel may freely hold and trade our securities. Neither our articles of association nor the laws of the State of Israel restrict in anyway the ownership or voting of ordinary shares by non-residents, except that such restrictions may exist with respect to citizens of countries which are in astate of war with Israel. Israeli residents are allowed to purchase our ordinary shares. E. Taxation The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership anddisposition of our ordinary shares. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the tax consequences of your particular situation, as well as any taxconsequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local, foreign or other taxing jurisdiction. Israeli Tax Considerations and Government Programs The following is a brief summary of the material Israeli tax laws applicable to us, and certain Israeli Government programs that benefit us. Thissummary does not discuss all the aspects of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular investor in light of his or her personal investment circumstancesor to some types of investors subject to special treatment under Israeli law. Examples of such investors include residents of Israel or traders in securities whoare subject to special tax regimes not covered in this discussion. To the extent that the discussion is based on new tax legislation that has not yet been subjectto judicial or administrative interpretation, we cannot assure you that the appropriate tax authorities or the courts will accept the views expressed in thisdiscussion. The discussion below is subject to change, including due to amendments under Israeli law or changes to the applicable judicial or administrativeinterpretations of Israeli law, which change could affect the tax consequences described below. General Corporate Tax Structure in Israel Generally, Israeli companies are subject to a corporate tax on their taxable income. In 2017 the corporate tax rate was 24%. Effective January 1, 2018and thereafter, the corporate tax rate is 23%. However, the effective tax rate payable by a company that derives income from an Approved Enterprise, aBeneficiary Enterprise, a Preferred Enterprise or Technology Enterprise (as discussed below) may be considerably less. Capital gains derived by an Israelicompany are generally subject to the prevailing regular corporate tax rate. Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969 The Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 5729-1969 (the “Industry Encouragement Law”), provides several tax benefits for “IndustrialCompanies.” 110 The Industry Encouragement Law defines an “Industrial Company” as an Israeli resident-company which was incorporated in Israel, of which 90% ormore of its income in any tax year, other than income from certain government loans, is derived from an “Industrial Enterprise” owned by it and located inIsrael. An “Industrial Enterprise” is defined as an enterprise whose principal activity in a given tax year is industrial production. The following tax benefits, among others, are available to Industrial Companies: ·amortization of the cost of purchased a patent, rights to use a patent, and know-how, which are used for the development or advancement of theIndustrial Enterprise, over an eight-year period, commencing on the year in which such rights were first exercised; ·under limited conditions, an election to file consolidated tax returns with related Israeli Industrial Companies controlled by it; and ·expenses related to a public offering are deductible in equal amounts over a three years period commencing on the year of the offering. Eligibility for benefits under the Industry Encouragement Law is not contingent upon approval of any governmental authority. We believe that we currently qualify as an Industrial Company within the meaning of the Industry Encouragement Law. However, there can be noassurance that we will continue to qualify as an Industrial Company or that the benefits described above will be available in the future. Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959 The Investment Law provides certain incentives for capital investments in production facilities (or other eligible assets). The Investment Law was significantly amended several times during recent years, with the three most significant changes effective as of April 1,2005 (the “2005 Amendment”), as of January 1, 2011 (the “2011 Amendment”), and as of January 1, 2017 (the “2017 Amendment”). Pursuant to the 2005Amendment, tax benefits granted in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law prior to its revision by the 2005 Amendment remain in force butany benefits granted subsequently are subject to the provisions of the amended Investment Law. Similarly, the 2011 Amendment introduced new benefits toreplace those granted in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law in effect prior to the 2011 Amendment. However, companies entitled tobenefits under the Investment Law as in effect prior to January 1, 2011 were entitled to choose to continue to enjoy such benefits, provided that certainconditions are met, or elect instead, irrevocably, to forego such benefits and have the benefits of the 2011 Amendment apply. The 2017 Amendmentintroduces new benefits for Technological Enterprises, alongside the existing tax benefits. Prior to 2011, we did not utilize any of the benefits for which wewere eligible under the Investment Law. The following is a summary of the Investment Law subsequent to its amendments as well as the relevant changes contained in the new legislation. Tax Benefits Subsequent to the 2005 Amendment The 2005 Amendment applies to new investment programs and investment programs commencing after 2004, but does not apply to investmentprograms approved prior to April 1, 2005 (“Approved Enterprise”). The 2005 Amendment provides that terms and benefits included in any certificate ofapproval that was granted before the 2005 Amendment became effective (April 1, 2005) will remain subject to the provisions of the Investment Law as ineffect on the date of such approval. Pursuant to the 2005 Amendment, the Israeli Authority for Investments and Development of the Israeli Ministry ofEconomy (the “Investment Center”) will continue to grant Approved Enterprise status to qualifying investments. The 2005 Amendment, however, limits thescope of enterprises that may be approved by the Investment Center by setting criteria for the approval of a facility as an Approved Enterprise. 111 The 2005 Amendment provides that Approved Enterprise status will only be necessary for receiving cash grants. As a result, it is no longer necessaryfor a company to obtain the advance approval of the Investment Center in order to receive the tax benefits previously available under the alternative benefitstrack. Rather, a company may claim the tax benefits offered by the Investment Law directly in its tax returns, provided that its facilities meet the criteria fortax benefits set forth in the 2005 Amendment. Companies or programs under the new provisions receiving these tax benefits are referred to as BeneficiaryEnterprises. Companies that have a Beneficiary Enterprise, are entitled to approach the Israel Tax Authority for a pre‑ruling regarding their eligibility for taxbenefits under the Investment Law, as amended. Tax benefits are available under the 2005 Amendment to production facilities (or other eligible facilities), which are generally required to derivemore than 25% of their business income from export to specific markets with a population of at least 14 million in 2012 (such export criteria will furtherincrease in the future by 1.4% per annum). In order to receive the tax benefits, the 2005 Amendment states that a company must make an investment whichmeets certain conditions, including exceeding a minimum investment amount specified in the Investment Law. Such investment allows a company to receive“Beneficiary Enterprise” status, and may be made over a period of no more than three years from the end of the year in which the company chose to have thetax benefits apply to its Beneficiary Enterprise. Where the company requests to apply the tax benefits to an expansion of existing facilities, only theexpansion will be considered to be a Beneficiary Enterprise and the company’s effective tax rate will be the weighted average of the applicable rates. In thiscase, the minimum investment required in order to qualify as a Beneficiary Enterprise is required to exceed a certain percentage of the value of the company’sproduction assets before the expansion. The extent of the tax benefits available under the 2005 Amendment to qualifying income of a Beneficiary Enterprise depends on, among otherthings, the geographic location in Israel of the Beneficiary Enterprise. The location will also determine the period for which tax benefits are available. Suchtax benefits include an exemption from corporate tax on undistributed income for a period of between two to ten years, depending on the geographic locationof the Beneficiary Enterprise in Israel, and a reduced corporate tax rate of between 10% to 25% for the remainder of the benefits period, depending on thelevel of foreign investment in the company in each year. A company qualifying for tax benefits under the 2005 Amendment which pays a dividend out ofincome attributed to its Beneficiary Enterprise during the tax exemption period will be subject to corporate tax in respect of the amount of the dividenddistributed (grossed‑up to reflect the pre‑tax income that it would have had to earn in order to distribute the dividend) at the corporate tax rate that wouldhave otherwise been applicable. Dividends paid out of income attributed to a Beneficiary Enterprise (or out of dividends received from a company whoseincome is attributed to a Beneficiary Enterprise) are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 15% or such lower rate as may be provided inan applicable tax treaty, applicable to dividends and distributions out of income attributed to a Beneficiary Enterprise. The reduced rate of 15% is limited todividends and distributions out of income attributed to a Beneficiary Enterprise during the benefits period and actually paid at any time up to 12 yearsthereafter, except with respect to a qualified Foreign Investment Company (as such term is defined in the Investment Law), in which case the 12‑year limitdoes not apply. The benefits available to a Beneficiary Enterprise are subject to the fulfillment of conditions stipulated in the Investment Law and its regulations. Ifa company does not meet these conditions, it would be required to refund the amount of tax benefits, as adjusted by the Israeli consumer price index, andinterest, or other monetary penalties. We currently have Beneficiary Enterprise programs under the Investments Law, which we believe will entitle us to certain tax benefits. The majorityof any taxable income from our Beneficiary Enterprise programs (once generated) would be tax exempt for a period of ten years commencing in the year inwhich we will first earn taxable income relating to such enterprises, subject to the 12 year limitation from the year the company chose to have its tax benefitsapply. Tax Benefits Under the 2011 Amendment The 2011 Amendment canceled the availability of the tax benefits granted under the Investment Law prior to 2011 and, instead, introduced new taxbenefits for income generated by a “Preferred Company” through its “Preferred Enterprise” (as such terms are defined in the Investment Law) as of January 1,2011. The definition of a Preferred Company includes a company incorporated in Israel that is not fully owned by a governmental entity, and that has, amongother things, Preferred Enterprise status and is controlled and managed from Israel. 112 The tax benefits under the 2011 Amendment for a Preferred Company meeting the criteria of the law include, among others, a reduced corporate taxrate of 15% for preferred income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise in 2011 and 2012, unless the Preferred Enterprise was located in a specified developmentzone, in which case the rate was 10%. Under the 2011 Amendment, such corporate tax rate was reduced in 2013 from 15% and 10%, respectively, to 12.5%and 7%, respectively, and then increased to 16% and 9%, respectively, in 2014 and thereafter until 2016. Pursuant to the 2017 Amendment, in 2017 andthereafter, the corporate tax rate for Preferred Enterprise which is located in a specified development zone was decreased to 7.5%, while the reduced corporatetax rate for other development zones remains 16%. Income attributed to a Preferred Company from a “Special Preferred Enterprise” (as such term is defined inthe Investment Law) would be entitled, during a benefits period of 10 years, to reduced tax rates of 8%, or 5% if the Special Preferred Enterprise is located in acertain development zone. As of January 1, 2017, the definition of “Special Preferred Enterprise” includes less stringent conditions. Dividends paid out ofpreferred income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise or to a Special Preferred Enterprise are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% orsuch lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty (subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the Israel Tax Authority allowingfor a reduced tax rate). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, no tax is required to be withheld (although, if such dividends aresubsequently distributed to individuals or a non‑Israeli company, withholding tax at a rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable taxtreaty will apply). In 2017‑2019 dividends paid out of preferred income attributed to a Special Preferred Enterprise, directly to a foreign parent company, aresubject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 5% (temporary provisions). The 2011 Amendment also provided transitional provisions to address companies already enjoying existing tax benefits under the Investment Law.These transitional provisions provide, among other things, that: unless an irrevocable request is made to apply the provisions of the Investment Law asamended in 2011 with respect to income to be derived as of January 1, 2011, a Beneficiary Enterprise can elect to continue to benefit from the benefitsprovided to it before the 2011 Amendment came into effect, provided that certain conditions are met. We have examined the possible effect, if any, of these provisions of the 2011 Amendment on our financial statements and have decided, at this time,not to opt to apply the new benefits under the 2011 Amendment. There can be no assurance that we will comply with the conditions required to remaineligible for benefits under the Investment Law in the future or that we will be entitled to any additional benefits thereunder. New Tax benefits under the 2017 Amendment that became effective on January 1, 2017. The 2017 Amendment was enacted as part of the Economic Efficiency Law that was published on December 29, 2016, and is effective as of January1, 2017. The 2017 Amendment provides new tax benefits for two types of “Technology Enterprises,” as described below, and is in addition to the otherexisting tax beneficial programs under the Investment Law. The 2017 Amendment provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions will qualify as a “Preferred Technology Enterprise” andwill thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on income that qualifies as “Preferred Technology Income,” as defined in the Investment Law. The taxrate is further reduced to 7.5% for a Preferred Technology Enterprise located in development zone A. In addition, a Preferred Technology Company willenjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 12% on capital gain derived from the sale of certain “Benefitted Intangible Assets” (as defined in the Investment Law) toa related foreign company if the Benefitted Intangible Assets were acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017 for at least NIS 200 million,and the sale receives prior approval from the Israeli Innovation Authority. The 2017 Amendment further provides that a technology company satisfying certain conditions will qualify as a “Special Preferred TechnologyEnterprise” and will thereby enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on “Preferred Technology Income” regardless of the company’s geographic locationwithin Israel. In addition, a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise will enjoy a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on capital gain derived from the sale ofcertain “Benefitted Intangible Assets” to a related foreign company if the Benefitted Intangible Assets were either developed by Special PreferredTechnology Enterprise or acquired from a foreign company on or after January 1, 2017, and the sale received prior approval from IIA. A Special PreferredTechnology Enterprise that acquires Benefitted Intangible Assets from a foreign company for more than NIS 500 million will be eligible for these benefits forat least ten years, subject to certain approvals as specified in the Investment Law. 113 Dividends distributed by a Preferred Technology Enterprise or a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise, paid out of Preferred Technology Income,are generally subject to withholding tax at source at the rate of 20% or such lower rate as may be provided in an applicable tax treaty (subject to the recipientin advance of a valid certificate from the Israeli Tax Authority allowing for reduced tax rate). However, if such dividends are paid to an Israeli company, notax is required to be withheld. If such dividends are distributed to a foreign company and other conditions are met, the withholding tax rate will be 4% (or alower under the tax treaty, if applicable, subject to the receipt in advance of a valid certificate from the Israeli Tax Authority allowing for a reduced tax rate). Taxation of Our Shareholders Capital gains taxes applicable to non‑Israeli resident shareholders A non‑Israeli resident (whether an individual or a corporation) who derives capital gains from the sale of shares in an Israeli resident company thatwere purchased after the company was listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange or on a recognized stock exchange outside of Israel, will generallybe exempt from Israeli capital gain tax so long as the shares were not held through a permanent establishment that the non‑resident maintains in Israel (andwith respect to shares listed on a recognized stock exchange outside of Israel, so long as the particular capital gain is otherwise subject to the Israeli IncomeTax Law (Inflationary Adjustments) 5745‑1985. These provisions dealing with capital gain are not applicable to a person whose gains from selling orotherwise disposing of the shares are deemed to be business income. However, non‑Israeli corporations will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption ifIsraeli residents (i) have a controlling interest of more than 25% in such non‑Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or moreof the revenues or profits of such non‑Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly. Additionally, a sale of shares by a non‑Israeli resident may also be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable taxtreaty. For example, under the Convention Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the State of Israel with respect toTaxes on Income, as amended (the “United States‑Israel Tax Treaty”), the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares by a shareholder who is a United Statesresident (for purposes of the United States‑Israel Tax Treaty) holding the shares as a capital asset and is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such aresident by the United States‑Israel Tax Treaty (a “Treaty U.S. Resident”) is generally exempt from Israeli capital gains tax unless: (i) the capital gain arisingfrom such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition isattributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gain arising from the such sale, exchange or disposition can be attributable to a permanent establishment of theshareholder maintained in Israel, under certain terms; (iv) such Treaty U.S. Resident holds, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of thevoting capital of a company during any part of the 12‑month period preceding such sale, exchange or disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) suchTreaty U.S. Resident is an individual and was present in Israel for a period or periods aggregating to 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year. Ineach case, the sale, exchange or disposition of our ordinary shares would be subject to such Israeli tax, to the extent applicable; However, under the UnitedStates‑Israel Tax Treaty, such Treaty U.S. Resident would be permitted to claim a credit for such taxes against the U.S. federal income tax imposed withrespect to such sale, exchange or disposition, subject to the limitations in U.S. laws applicable to foreign tax credits. In some instances where our shareholders may be liable for Israeli tax on the sale of their ordinary shares, the payment of the consideration may besubject to the withholding of Israeli tax at source. Shareholders may be required to demonstrate that they are exempt from tax on their capital gains in order toavoid withholding at source at the time of sale. Specifically, in transactions involving a sale of all of the shares of an Israeli resident company, in the form of amerger or otherwise, the Israel Tax Authority may require from shareholders who are not liable for Israeli tax to sign declarations in forms specified by thisauthority or obtain a specific exemption from the Israel Tax Authority to confirm their status as non‑Israeli resident, and, in the absence of such declarationsor exemptions, may require the purchaser of the shares to withhold taxes at source. 114 Taxation of non‑Israeli shareholders on receipt of dividends Non‑Israeli residents (whether individuals or corporations) are generally subject to Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends paid on ourordinary shares at the rate of 25% unless a relief is provided in a treaty between Israel and a shareholder's country of residence (provided that a certificate fromthe Israeli Tax Authority allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate is obtained in advance). With respect to a person who is a “substantial shareholder” atthe time of receiving the dividend or on any time during the preceding 12 months, the applicable tax rate is 30%. A “substantial shareholder” is generally aperson who alone or together with such person’s relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, holds, directly orindirectly, at least 10% of any of the “means of control” of the corporation. “Means of control” generally include the right to vote, receive profits, nominate adirector or an executive officer, receive assets upon liquidation, or order someone who holds any of the aforesaid rights how to act, regardless of the source ofsuch right. Such dividends are generally subject to Israeli withholding tax at a rate of 25% so long as the shares are registered with a nominee company(whether or not the recipient is a substantial shareholder), unless relief is provided in a treaty between Israel and the shareholder’s country of residence andprovided that a certificate from the Israel Tax Authority allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate is obtained in advance. However, a distribution ofdividends to non‑Israeli residents is subject to withholding tax at source at a rate of 15% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to an ApprovedEnterprise or a Beneficiary Enterprise and 20% if the dividend is distributed from income attributed to a Preferred Enterprise, unless a reduced tax rate isprovided under an applicable tax treaty, and provided that a certificate from the Israel Tax Authority allowing for a reduced withholding tax rate is obtainedin advance. For example, under the United States‑Israel Tax Treaty, the maximum rate of tax withheld at source in Israel on dividends paid to a holder of ourordinary shares who is a Treaty U.S. Resident is 25%. However, generally, the maximum rate of withholding tax on dividends, not generated by an ApprovedEnterprise or Beneficiary Enterprise, that are paid to a U.S. corporation holding 10% or more of the outstanding voting capital throughout the tax year inwhich the dividend is distributed as well as during the previous tax year, is 12.5%, provided that not more than 25% of the gross income for such precedingyear consists of certain types of dividends and interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends distributed from income attributed to an ApprovedEnterprise or Beneficiary Enterprise are not entitled to such reduction under the tax treaty but are subject to a withholding tax rate of 15% for such a U.S.corporation, provided that the condition related to our gross income for the previous year (as set forth in the previous sentence) is met. If the dividend isattributable partly to income derived from an Approved Enterprise, Beneficiary Enterprise or Preferred Enterprise, and partly to other sources of income, thewithholding rate will be a blended rate reflecting the relative portions of the two types of income. We cannot assure you that we will designate the profits thatwe may distribute in a way that will reduce shareholders’ tax liability. A non‑Israeli resident who receives dividends from which tax was withheld, is generally exempt from the obligation to file tax returns in Israel withrespect to such income, provided that (i) such income was not derived from a business conducted in Israel by the taxpayer, (ii) the taxpayer has no othertaxable sources of income in Israel with respect to which a tax return is required to be filed and (iii) the tax payer is not obligated to pay the excess tax (asfurther explained below). Excess Tax Individuals who are subject to tax in Israel are also subject to an additional tax at a rate of 3% on annual income exceeding NIS 641,880 for 2018,which amount is linked to the annual change in the Israeli consumer price index, including but not limited to, dividends, interest and capital gain. In 2019,the additional tax will be at a rate of 3% on annual income exceeding NIS 649,560. United States Federal Income Taxation The following is a description of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares by a U.S.Holder that holds the ordinary shares as capital assets. This description does not address tax considerations applicable to holders that may be subject tospecial tax rules, including, without limitation: ·banks, financial institutions or insurance companies; ·real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies or grantor trusts; ·dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies; 115 ·tax‑exempt entities or organizations, including an “individual retirement account” or “Roth IRA” as defined in Section 408 or 408A of theCode, respectively; ·certain former citizens or long‑term residents of the United States; ·persons that received our shares as compensation for the performance of services; ·persons that holds our shares as part of a “hedging,” “integrated” or “conversion” transaction or as a position in a “straddle” for U.S. federalincome tax purposes; ·partnerships (including entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or other pass‑through entities, or holders that willhold our shares through such an entity; ·S corporations; ·holders that acquired ordinary shares as a result of holding or owning our preferred shares; ·U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar; ·persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the shares being taken into account in anapplicable financial statement; ·persons that are residents of ordinarily resident in or have a permanent establishment in a jurisdiction outside the United States; or ·holders that own directly, indirectly or through attribution 10.0% or more of the voting power or value of our shares. Moreover, this description does not address the U.S. federal estate, gift or alternative minimum tax consequences, or any state, local or foreign taxconsequences, of the ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions andfinal, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, all as currently in effect and available. These authorities are subject to change or differing interpretation,possibly with retroactive effect. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisers concerning the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences ofowning and disposing of our ordinary shares in their particular circumstances. For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our ordinary shares who is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: ·a citizen or individual resident of the United States; ·a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of theUnited States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia; ·an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or ·a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. Court and one or more U.S. persons that have the authority to control all substantialdecisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our ordinary shares, the tax treatment of a partnerin such partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Investors who are partners in a partnershipshould consult their tax advisers as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of our ordinary shares in their particularcircumstances. A “Non‑U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our ordinary shares that is neither a U.S. Holder nor a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Unless otherwise indicated, this discussion assumes that the company is not, and will not become, a “passive foreign investment company,” or aPFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See “ITEM 10.E. Taxation—United States Federal Income Taxation—Passive Foreign Investment CompanyConsiderations” below. Further, this summary does not address the U.S. federal estate and gift, state, local or non‑U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders ofowning and disposing of our ordinary shares. Investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state and local, as well as non‑U.S.income and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of our ordinary shares in their particular circumstances. 116 Distributions If you are a U.S. Holder, the gross amount of any distribution made to you with respect to our ordinary shares before reduction for any Israeli taxeswithheld therefrom, other than certain distributions, if any, of our ordinary shares distributed pro rata to all our shareholders, generally will be includible inyour income as dividend income to the extent such distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S.federal income tax principles. We do not expect to maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, ifyou are a U.S. Holder you should expect that the entire amount of any distribution generally will be reported as dividend income to you. Non‑corporate U.S.Holders may qualify for the lower rates of taxation with respect to dividends on ordinary shares applicable to long‑term capital gains (i.e., gains from the saleof capital assets held for more than one year), provided that certain conditions are met, including certain holding period requirements and the absence ofcertain risk reduction transactions. However, such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to corporate U.S.Holders. If you are a U.S. Holder, dividends paid to you with respect to our ordinary shares will generally be treated as foreign source income, which may berelevant in calculating your foreign tax credit limitation. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, Israeli tax withheld on dividends may be deductedfrom your taxable income or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separatelywith respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends that we distribute generally should constitute “passive category income.” A foreign taxcredit for foreign taxes imposed on distributions may be denied if you do not satisfy certain minimum holding period requirements. The rules relating to thedetermination of the foreign tax credit are complex, and you should consult your tax advisor to determine whether and to what extent you will be entitled tothis credit. Subject to the discussion below under “—Backup Withholding Tax and Information Reporting Requirements,” if you are a Non‑U.S. Holder, yougenerally will not be subject to U.S. federal income (or withholding) tax on dividends received by you on your ordinary shares, unless you conduct a trade orbusiness in the United States and such income is effectively connected with that trade or business (or, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, thedividends are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States). Sale, Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares If you are a U.S. Holder, you generally will recognize gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of our ordinary shares equal tothe difference between the amount realized on such sale, exchange or other taxable disposition and your adjusted tax basis in our ordinary shares, and suchgain or loss will be capital gain or loss. The initial tax basis in an ordinary share generally will be equal to the cost of such ordinary share. Except with respectto foreign currency gain or loss, if you are a non‑corporate U.S. Holder, capital gain from the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of ordinary shares isgenerally eligible for a preferential rate of taxation applicable to capital gains, if your holding period for such ordinary shares exceeds one year (i.e., suchgain is long‑term capital gain). The deductibility of capital losses for U.S. federal income tax purposes is subject to limitations under the Code. Any such gainor loss that a U.S. Holder recognizes generally will be treated as U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Subject to the discussion below under “—Backup Withholding Tax and Information Reporting Requirements,” if you are a Non‑U.S. Holder, yougenerally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on any gain realized on the sale or exchange of such ordinary shares unless: ·such gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or, if required by an applicable income taxtreaty, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States); or ·you are an individual and have been present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of such sale or exchange and certainother conditions are met. 117 Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations If we were to be classified as a “passive foreign investment company,” or “PFIC,” in any taxable year, a U.S. Holder would be subject to special rulesgenerally intended to reduce or eliminate any benefits from the deferral of U.S. federal income tax that a U.S. Holder could derive from investing in a non‑U.S.company that does not distribute all of its earnings on a current basis. A non‑U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which, after applying certain look‑throughrules with respect to the income and assets of subsidiaries, either: ·at least 75% of its gross income is “passive income”; or ·at least 50% of the average quarterly value of its total gross assets (which may be determined in part by the market value of our ordinary shares,which is subject to change) is attributable to assets that produce “passive income” or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, gains from commodities and securities transactions, theexcess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income, and includes amounts derived by reason of the temporary investmentof funds raised in offerings of our ordinary shares. If a non‑U.S. corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the non‑U.S.corporation is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and as receiving directly itsproportionate share of the other corporation’s income. If we are classified as a PFIC in any year with respect to which a U.S. Holder owns our ordinary shares,we will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder in all succeeding years during which the U.S. Holder owns our ordinary shares unlesswe cease to be a PFIC and the U.S. holder has made a “deemed sale” election under the PFIC rules. Based on our current estimates of our gross income and the estimated fair market value of our gross assets and the nature of our business, we do notbelieve we were classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2018. However, we must determine our PFIC status annually based on testswhich are factual in nature, and our status in future years will depend on our income, assets and activities in those years. Further, because the value of ourgross assets is likely to be determined in large part by reference to our market capitalization, a decline in the value of our ordinary shares may result in ourbecoming a PFIC . There can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If we were a PFIC and you are a U.S. Holder, thenunless you make one of the elections described below, a special tax regime will apply to both (a) any “excess distribution” by us to you (generally, yourratable portion of distributions in any year which are greater than 125% of the average annual distribution received by you in the shorter of the threepreceding years or your holding period for our ordinary shares) and (b) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the ordinary shares. Under thisregime, any excess distribution and realized gain will be treated as ordinary income and will be subject to tax as if (a) the excess distribution or gain had beenrealized ratably over your holding period, (b) the amount deemed realized in each year had been subject to tax in each year of that holding period at thehighest marginal rate for such year (other than income allocated to the current period or any taxable period before we became a PFIC, which would be subjectto tax at the U.S. Holder’s regular ordinary income rate for the current year and would not be subject to the interest charge discussed below) and (c) theinterest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax had been imposed on the taxes deemed to have been payable in those years. In addition,dividend distributions made to you will not qualify for the lower rates of taxation applicable to long‑term capital gains discussed above under“Distributions.” Certain elections may be available that would result in an alternative treatment (such as mark‑to‑market treatment) of our ordinary shares. 118 If a U.S. Holder makes a valid mark‑to‑market election for the first tax year in which such U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) ordinary shares ina corporation and for which such corporation is determined to be a PFIC, the U.S. Holder generally will recognize as ordinary income any excess of the fairmarket value of the ordinary shares at the end of each taxable year over their adjusted tax basis, and will recognize an ordinary loss in respect of any excess ofthe adjusted tax basis of the ordinary shares over their fair market value at the end of the taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of incomepreviously included as a result of the mark‑to‑market election). If a U.S. Holder makes the election, the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the ordinary shares will beadjusted to reflect these income or loss amounts. Any gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of ordinary shares in a year when we are a PFIC will betreated as ordinary income and any loss will be treated as an ordinary loss (but only to the extent of the net amount of income previously included as a resultof the mark‑to‑market election). The mark‑to‑market election is available only if we are a PFIC and our ordinary shares are “regularly traded” on a “qualifiedexchange.” Our ordinary shares will be treated as “regularly traded” in any calendar year in which more than a de minimis quantity of the ordinary shares, aretraded on a qualified exchange on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. Nasdaq is a qualified exchange for this purpose and, consequently, if theordinary shares are regularly traded, the mark‑to‑market election will be available to a U.S. Holder. Because a mark‑to‑market election generally would not beavailable with respect to any lower‑tier PFICs that we may own, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to such holder’sindirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We do not intend to provide the information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections if we are classified as a PFIC. U.S.Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine whether any of these elections would be available and if so, what the consequences of the alternativetreatments would be in their particular circumstances. If we are determined to be a PFIC, the general tax treatment for U.S. Holders described in this section would apply to indirect distributions and gainsdeemed to be realized by U.S. Holders in respect of any of our subsidiaries that also may be determined to be PFICs. If a U.S. Holder owns ordinary shares during any year in which we are a PFIC, the U.S. Holder generally will be required to file an IRS Form 8621(Information Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund) or successor form with respect to the company,generally with the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax return for that year. If the company was a PFIC for a given taxable year, then you should consult your taxadvisor concerning your annual filing requirements. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding whether we are a PFIC and the potential application of the PFIC rules. Medicare Tax Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts are subject to a 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which mayinclude all or a portion of their dividend income and net gains from the disposition of ordinary shares. Each U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate or trust isurged to consult its tax advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to its income and gains in respect of its investment in our ordinary shares. Backup Withholding Tax and Information Reporting Requirements U.S. backup withholding tax and information reporting requirements may apply to certain payments to certain holders of stock. Informationreporting generally will apply to payments of dividends on, and to proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of, our ordinary shares made within theUnited States, or by a United States payor or United States middleman, to a holder of our ordinary shares, other than an exempt recipient (including a payeethat is not a United States person that provides an appropriate certification and certain other persons). Payments made (and sales or other dispositions effectedat an office) outside the U.S. will be subject to information reporting in limited circumstances. A payor will be required to withhold backup withholding taxfrom any payments of dividends on, or the proceeds from the sale or redemption of, ordinary shares within the United States, or by a United States payor orUnited States middleman, to a holder, other than an exempt recipient, if such holder fails to furnish its correct taxpayer identification number or otherwisefails to comply with, or establish an exemption from, such backup withholding tax requirements, or to report dividends required to be shown on the holder’sU.S. federal income tax returns. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against the beneficial owner’s U.S.federal income tax liability, if any, and any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded, provided that the requiredinformation is timely furnished to the IRS. 119 Foreign Asset Reporting Certain U.S. Holders who are individuals and certain entities may be required to report information relating to an interest in our ordinary shares,subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for shares held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions) by filing IRS Form 8938(Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets) with their federal income tax return. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding theirinformation reporting obligations, if any, with respect to their ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares. F. Dividends and Paying Agents Not applicable. G. Statement by Experts Not applicable. H. Documents on Display We are currently subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to foreign private issuers and fulfill the obligations ofthese requirements by filing reports with the SEC. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act relating to the furnishingand content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short‑swing profit recoveryprovisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financialstatements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we are required tofile with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each subsequent fiscal year, an annual report on Form 20‑F containing financial statements which will beexamined and reported on, with an opinion expressed, by an independent public accounting firm. We also file with the SEC reports on Form 6‑K containingquarterly unaudited financial information. You may read and copy any document we file with the SEC without charge at the SEC’s public reference room at 100 F Street, N.E., Room 1580,Washington, D.C. 20549. You may also obtain copies of the documents at prescribed rates by writing to the Public Reference Section of the SEC at 100 FStreet, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1‑800‑SEC‑0330 for further information on the public reference room. The SEC also maintainsan Internet site that contains reports and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our filings with the SEC are also availableto the public through this web site at http://www.sec.gov. As permitted under Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5250(d)(1)(C), we will post our annual reports filedwith the SEC on our website at http://www.mediwound.com. We will not furnish hard copies of such reports to our shareholders unless we are requested to doso in writing. Upon receipt of such a request, we will provide a hard copy of such reports to such requesting shareholder free of charge. The informationcontained on our website is not part of this or any other report filed with or furnished to the SEC. I. Subsidiary Information Not applicable. Item 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange fluctuations, changes in interest rates and inflation. We regularly assesscurrency, interest rate and inflation risks to minimize any adverse effects on our business as a result of those factors. Foreign Currency Risk The U.S. dollar is our functional and reporting currency. A portion of our expenses are denominated in Israeli shekels, accounting for approximately28%, 40% and 45% of our expenses in the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. We also have expenses in other non‑dollarcurrencies, in particular the Euro, and for the next few years, we expect that the substantial majority of our revenue, if any, will be denominated in Euros fromthe sale of NexoBrid in the European Union. A devaluation of the shekel in relation to the U.S. dollar has the effect of reducing the U.S. dollar amount of ourexpenses or payables that are payable in shekels, unless those expenses or payables are linked to the U.S. dollar. Conversely, any increase in the value of theshekel in relation to the U.S. dollar has the effect of increasing the U.S. dollar value of our unlinked shekel expenses, which would have a negative impact onour profit margins. 120 Because exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the shekel (as well as between the U.S. dollar and other currencies) fluctuate continuously, suchfluctuations have an impact on our results and period‑to‑period comparisons of our results. The effects of foreign currency re‑measurements are reported inour consolidated financial statements of operations. The following table presents information about the changes in the exchange rates of the shekel against the U.S. dollar and changes in the exchangerates of the Euro against the U.S. dollar: Change in ExchangeRate Period Shekel againstthe U.S. dollar(%) Euroagainst theU.S. dollar(%) 2014 (12.0) (11.8)2015 (0.3) (10.4)2016 1.5 (3.4)2017 9.8 13.9 2018 (8.1) (4.4) A 10% increase (decrease) in the value of the NIS and Euro against the U.S. dollar would have decreased (increased) our net loss by approximately$0.1 million in 2018. As we are marketing and sales of NexoBrid in Europe and clinical trials of NexoBrid outside the United States, we will continue to monitor exposureto currency fluctuations. We do not currently engage in currency hedging activities in order to reduce this currency exposure, but we may begin to do so inthe future. Instruments that may be used to hedge future risks may include foreign currency forward and swap contracts. These instruments may be used toselectively manage risks, but there can be no assurance that we will be fully protected against material foreign currency fluctuations. Other Market Risks We do not believe that we have material exposure to interest rate risk due to the fact that we have no long‑term borrowings. We do not believe that we have any material exposure to inflationary risks. We do not believe that the rate of inflation in Israel has had a materialimpact on our business to date. However, our costs in Israel will increase if inflation in Israel exceeds the devaluation of the shekel against the U.S. dollar or ifthe timing of such devaluation lags behind inflation in Israel. Item 12. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES Not applicable. 121PART II Item 13. DEFAULTS, DIVIDEND ARREARAGES AND DELINQUENCIES None. Item 14. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS Initial Public Offering The effective date of the registration statement (File No. 333‑193856) for our IPO of ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01, was March 19, 2014. Theoffering commenced on March 19, 2014 and was closed on March 25, 2014. In our IPO, we issued and sold a total of 5,750,000 ordinary shares at a price pershare of $14.00 with aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $80.5 million. Under the terms of the offering, we incurred aggregate underwriting discountsof approximately $5.6 million and expenses of approximately $3.2 million in connection with the offering, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately$71.7 million. From the effective date of the registration statement and until December 31, 2018, we have used existing cash and the net proceeds from the offering,in the amount of approximately $23.2 million to expand our marketing infrastructure, $25.2 million on research and development and $28.5 million tomaintain our manufacturing capabilities, for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Under the modified BARDA contract, BARDA has agreedto fund up to $56 million of the development costs of NexoBrid and we expect that almost all NexoBrid development programs, including clinical andnon‑clinical development as well as regulatory submission, will be funded by BARDA. In addition, under the new BARDA contract, BARDA has agreed tofund up to $12 million of the development costs of NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries under the Animal Rule. Therefore, we intend to usea portion of our proceeds raised during our IPO together with the net proceeds raised in our September 2017 follow‑on offering, to further advance ourresearch and development activities, primarily the clinical development of EscharEx and the remainder, if any, for working capital and other generalcorporate purposes. See ITEM 4.B. Business Overview—BARDA Contract.” We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to make acquisitions orinvestments in complementary companies or technologies, although we do not have any agreement or understanding with respect to any such acquisition orinvestment at this time. None of the net proceeds of the offering was paid directly or indirectly to any director, officer, general partner of ours or to their associates, personsowning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities, or to any of our affiliates, except as a compensation and general and administrative expenses. Item 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls andprocedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2018. Based on such evaluation, our ChiefExecutive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Management Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintainingadequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a‑15(f) and 15d‑15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financialreporting as of December 31, 2017. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Our management has concluded, based on itsassessment, that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2018. 122 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a‑15(f) and 15d‑15(f) under the ExchangeAct) that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internalcontrol over financial reporting. Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control overfinancial reporting because the JOBS Act provides an exemption from such requirement as we qualify as an emerging growth company.

AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESOpinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MediWound Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and2018 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive profit or loss, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period endedDecember 31, 2018 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in allmaterial respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2017 and 2018, and the consolidated results of its operations and itscash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by theInternational Accounting Standards Board.Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financialstatements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB)and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations ofthe Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonableassurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, norwere we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding ofinternal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financialreporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, andperforming procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures inthe financial statements.

AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data)NOTE 1:GENERALa.General description of the Company and its operations:MediWound Ltd. (the "Company" or "MediWound"), is a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on developing,manufacturing and commercializing novel products to address unmet needs in the fields of severe burns, chronic and other hard to healwounds, connective tissue disorders and other indications.The Company's innovative biopharmaceutical product, NexoBrid, received marketing authorization from the European MedicinesAgency ("EMA") as well as the Israeli, Argentinean, South-Korean and Russian Ministries of Health, for removal of dead or damagedtissue, known as eschar, in adults with deep partial and full thickness thermal burns. The Company sells NexoBrid in Europe and inIsrael through its commercial organizations and in other territories through local distributers.The Company second investigational innovative product, EscharEx, is a topical biological drug being developed for debridement ofchronic and other hard-to-heal wounds.The Company has a contract with the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA"), which was modifiedin July 2017, for the advancement of the development and manufacturing, as well as the procurement of NexoBrid, as a medicalcountermeasure as part of BARDA preparedness for mass casualty events. In September 2018, the Company has awarded additionalcontract with BARDA to develop NexoBrid for the treatment of Sulfur Mustard injuries as part of BARDA preparedness for masscasualty events (see Note 15d).b.The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries: MediWound Germany GmbH, acting as Europe (“EU”) marketing authorizationholder and EU sales and marketing arm and MediWound UK Limited, an inactive company. In addition, the Company ownsapproximately 8% of PolyHeal Ltd., a private life sciences company ("PolyHeal").c.The Company's securities are listed for trading on NASDAQ since March 2014. In September 2017, the Company completed a follow-onpublic offering. A total of 5,037,664 new ordinary shares were issued in consideration to net proceeds of $22,658, after deductingunderwriter’s discounts, commissions and other offering expenses (see Note 16).F-8 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESa.Basis of presentation of financial statements:These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by theInternational Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a cost basis, except for financial instruments which aremeasured at fair value through profit or loss.bConsolidated financial statements include the financial statements of companies that the Company controls (subsidiaries). Control isachieved when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its investment with the investee and has the ability toaffect those returns through its power over the investee.The financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are prepared as of the same dates and periods. The consolidated financialstatements are prepared using uniform accounting policies by all entities in the Group. Significant intercompany balances andtransactions and gains or losses resulting from intercompany transactions are eliminated in full in the consolidated financial statements.c.Functional currency, reporting currency and foreign currency:1.Functional currency and reporting currency:The reporting currency of the financial statements is the U.S. dollar.The Company determines the functional currency based on the currency in which it primarily generates and expends cash. TheCompany determined that its functional currency is the U.S. dollar since most of the Company's expenses are in U.S. dollars andthe economic environment in which the Company operates in and performs its transactions is mostly affected by the U.S dollar. Acertain portion of the Company's costs are denominated in NIS mainly due to payroll and related benefit costs incurred in Israel.To further support the Company's determination, the Company has analyzed the currency in which funds from financingactivities are generated or held and the currency in which receipts from operating activities are usually retained. In this respect,funds from financing activities were principally derived from significant funds raised in U.S. dollars including the public offeringcompleted in 2014, the follow-on offering completed in 2017 and U.S governmental funds.The Company operates and plans its activities in U.S. dollars and accordingly its periodic budgets and internal managementreports are prepared and monitored using the U.S. dollar as the primary currency and provides the basis for the determination ofshare-based compensation.F-9 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)The functional currency of the Company's subsidiary in Germany has been determined to be its local currency - the EURO. Assetsand liabilities of this subsidiary are translated at year end exchange rates and its statement of operations items are translated usingthe averegae exchange rates at the quarter of which those items are recognized. Such translation adjustments are recorded as aseparate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders' equity.2.Transactions, assets and liabilities in foreign currency:Transactions denominated in foreign currency are recorded upon initial recognition at the exchange rate on the date of thetransaction. After initial recognition, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the end ofeach reporting period into the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Exchange differences are recognized in profitor loss.d.Cash equivalents:Cash equivalents are considered as highly liquid investments, including unrestricted short‑term bank deposits with an original maturityof three months or less from the date of deposit.e.Short-term bank deposits:Short-term bank deposits have a maturity of more than three months, but less than one year, from the deposit date.f.Inventories:Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinarycourse of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated selling costs. The Company periodically evaluates thecondition and age of inventories and makes provisions for slow moving inventories accordingly. Cost of inventories is determined as follows: Raw materials- At cost of purchase using the first-in, first-out method. Finished goods- On the basis of average standard costs including materials, labor and other direct and indirect manufacturingcosts based on practical capacity.F-10 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)g.Participation by governments support: (i) Israeli Innovation Authority grants:Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Company will complywith the attendant conditions.Research and development grants received from the Israeli Innovation Authority ("IIA"), are recognized upon receipt as a liability iffuture economic benefits are expected from the project that will result in royalty-bearing sales. In that event, the royalty obligation istreated as a contingent liability in accordance with IAS 37, "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" ("IAS 37").A liability for the grant is first measured at fair value (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy) using a discount rate that reflects a marketinterest rate. The difference between the amount of the grant received and the fair value of the liability is accounted for as a governmentgrant and recognized as a deduction from research and development expenses. After initial recognition, the liability is measured atamortized cost using the effective interest method. Royalty payments are treated as a reduction of the liability.At the end of each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether there is reasonable assurance that the liability recognized, in wholeor in part, will not be repaid based on its best estimate of future sales and, if so, the appropriate amount of the liability is derecognizedagainst a corresponding reduction in research and development expenses. (ii) Funding by BARDA:Non-royalty bearing funds from BARDA for funding research and development projects are recognized at the time the Company isentitled to such grants on the basis of the related costs incurred and recorded as a deduction from research and development expenses.h.Leases:The criteria for classifying leases as finance or operating leases depend on the substance of the agreements and are made at the inceptionof the lease in accordance with the following principles as set out in IAS 17.Operating leases:Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset are not transferred to the Company areclassified as operating leases. Lease payments are recognized as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the leaseterm.F-11 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)i.Property, plant and equipment, net:Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, including directly attributable costs, less accumulated depreciation, accumulatedimpairment losses and excluding day-to-day servicing expenses. Cost includes spare parts and auxiliary equipment that are used inconnection with the plant and equipment.Depreciation is calculated on a straight‑line basis over the useful life of the assets at annual rates as follows: % Office furniture 6-15 Electronic machinery and laboratory equipment 15-20 Computers 33 Leasehold improvements Seebelow Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight‑line basis over the shorter of the lease term (including the renewal option held bythe Company which is expected to be exercised) and the expected life of the improvement.j.Intangible assets, net:Separately acquired intangible assets with finite useful life are measured on initial recognition at cost.Intangible assets are amortized over their useful life using the straight‑line method beginning in the period in which the intangibleassets generates net cash inflows to the Company. The useful life is over the length of the patent or knowledge life. The intangible assetsare reviewed for impairment at each reporting date until they begin generating net cash inflows and subsequently whenever there is anindication that the asset may be impaired.k.Revenue recognition:The Company currently generates revenues from direct and indirect sales of its innovative biopharmaceutical product, NexoBrid, toburn centers and hospital burn units in Europe and Israel as well as to local distributors in other countries. Revenues are recognized tothe extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenues can be reliably measured, regardlessof when the payment is being made. Revenues are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking intoaccount contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty and net of returns and allowances, trade discounts andvolume rebates.Revenues from the sale of products are recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products have passed tothe buyer and the seller no longer retains continuing managerial involvement. The delivery date of the products is usually the date ofwhich ownership passes.F-12 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) Revenues from distributors agreements which comprised of multiple elements (including license to access the Company's intellectualproperty and exclusive distribution rights), provide for varying consideration terms, such as upfront payments and milestone payments,are recognized when the criteria for revenue recognition have been met and only to the extent of the consideration that is not contingentupon completion or performance of future services under the contract. The Company concluded that the components do not have "standalone value" to the customer and accordingly they are accounted for as one unit of account. Consequently, revenues from thesecomponents are recognized on the straight line basis over the license period. Deferred revenues include unearned amounts received from customers not yet recognized as revenues. As of December 31, 2018, theaggregate amount of the deffered revenue was $1,356, which is expected to be recognized over 12 years.Effective of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("the Standard"). The Companyelected to adopt the provisions of the Standard which replaces IAS 18, using the modified retrospective method with the application ofcertain practical expedients and without restatement of comparative data.The new Standard introduces a five-step model that applies to revenue earned from contracts with customers:Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer, including reference to contract combination and accounting for contract modifications.Step 2: Identify the distinct performance obligations in the contract.Step 3: Determine the transaction price, including reference to variable consideration, significant financing components, non-cashconsideration and any consideration payable to the customer.Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations on a relative stand-alone selling price basis usingobservable prices, if s available, or using estimates and assessments.Step 5: Recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied, either at a point in time or over time.The Company generates revenues from direct and indirect sales of its products and from license agreements with its distributors.F-13 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)1.Revenue from the Sale of products:Revenue from sale of goods is recognized in profit or loss at the point in time when the control of the goods is transferred to thecustomer, generally upon delivery of the goods to the customer.2.Revenue from distribution agreements with Multiple- element:According to the new Standard, entities need to determine whether the licenses for intellectual property is a performance obligationwhich is distinct from other goods and services included in the contract. An analysis of the Company's contracts with its distributorsindicates that in the majority of contracts, the Company grants its distributors a right to access its intellectual property as it existsthroughout the license period. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue from the granting of licenses over the license period,which is identical to the legacy accounting treatment.In addition, in accordance with terms of some license agreements, the Company is entitled for up-front payments which are accountedfor as deferred revenues and recognized in profit and loss over the license period. According to the new Standard, when long-termadvances (exceeding one year) are received for a future service, the Company is required to accrue interest and recognize financeexpense on the advances over the period of the contract. Under the legacy revenue recognition guidance the Company did not recognizefinance expenses in respect of deferred revenue. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new standard for all its distribution agreements at the date of initial application, with thecumulative effect of applying the new guidance recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance. Results forreporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjustedand continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the prior period. The Company recorded a net increase toopening accumulated deficit of $249 as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting the new guidance and an increaseof deferred revenues by $249.F-14 As reported Adjustments Amountswithoutadoption ofIFRS 15 Deferred revenues* 1,356 (369) 987 Accumulated deficit (130,715) 369 (130,346) As reported Adjustments Amountswithoutadoption ofIFRS 15 Revenues 3,401 (44) 3,357 Financial expense (2,117) 164 (1,953)Net loss (1,057) 120 (937)Total Basic and diluted net loss per share (0.04) (0.0) (0.04) MEDIWOUND LTD.

Impact on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position: * Comprised of short term deferred revenues classified in other payable and long term deferred revenues. Impact on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2018: l.Research and development expenses:Research and development expenses are recognized in profit or loss when incurred. An intangible asset arising from a developmentproject or from the development phase of an internal project is recognized if the Company can demonstrate the technical feasibility ofcompleting the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; the Company's intention to complete the intangible asset anduse or sell it; the Company's ability to use or sell the intangible asset; how the intangible asset will generate future economic benefits;the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the intangible asset; and the Company's ability tomeasure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. Since the Company's research anddevelopment projects are often subject to regulatory approval procedures and other uncertainties, the conditions for the capitalization ofcosts incurred before receipt of approvals are not normally satisfied and, therefore, research and development expenses are recognized inprofit or loss when incurred.F-15 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)m.Impairment of non-financial assets:The Company evaluates the need to record an impairment of the carrying amount of non-financial assets whenever events or changes incircumstances indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. If the carrying amount of non‑financial assets exceeds theirrecoverable amount, the assets are reduced to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset that does not generateindependent cash flows is determined for the cash‑generating unit to which the asset belongs, and is calculated based on the projectedcash flows that will be generated by the cash generating unit.An impairment loss of an asset, is reversed only if there have been changes in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverableamount since the last impairment loss was recognized. Reversal of an impairment loss, as above, may not increase the value above thelower of (i) the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss beenrecognized for the asset in prior years, and (ii) its recoverable amount.n.Financial instruments: Effective of January 1, 2018 the Company adopted IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments" ("the Standard"), which replaced IAS 39. TheCompany elected to adopt the provisions of the Standard retrospectively without restatement of comparative data.1.Financial assets:Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, and subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through othercomprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristicsand the Company’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significantfinancing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financialasset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.Receivable:The Company has receivables that are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an activemarket.2.Financial liabilities:Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 are initially measured at fair value. After initial recognition, the accounting treatment of financial liabilities is based on their classification as follows:F-16 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 2:-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost:Loans and other contingent liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method taking into accountdirectly attributable transaction costs.3.Fair value:Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction betweenmarket participants at the measurement date.Fair value measurement is based on the assumption that the transaction will take place in the asset's or the liability's principalmarket, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing theasset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefitsby using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highestand best use.The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available tomeasure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.4. Classification of financial instruments by fair value hierarchy: All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fairvalue hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data (valuation techniques which use inputs that are not basedon observable market data). F-17 MEDIWOUND LTD.

A financial liability is extinguished when the debtor (the Company) discharges the liability by paying in cash,other financial assets, goods or services; or is legally released from the liability.7.Contingent consideration for purchase of shares: The contingent consideration liability for purchase of shares is measured at fair value(Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy) andinitially recorded against equity.

A liability in respect of a cash bonus is recognized when the Companyhas a legal or constructive obligation to make such payment as a result of past service rendered by an employee and a reliableestimate of the amount can be made.2.Post-employment benefits:The Company has liabilities for severance pay for its employees in several of EU jurisdictions and in Israel.Post-employment benefit plans in Israel are normally financed by contributions to insurance companies and classified as definedcontribution plans or as defined benefit plans. The Company has defined contribution plans for Israeli employees pursuant to theSeverance Pay Law into which the Company pays fixed contributions and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay furthercontributions on account of severance pay if the fund does not hold sufficient amounts to pay all employee benefits relating toemployee service in current and prior periods. Contributions to the defined contribution plan in respect of severance or retirement pay are recognized as an expense whencontributed concurrently with performance of the employee's services.q.Share-based compensation:Certain Company employees and directors are entitled to remuneration in the form of equity-settled share-based compensation.Equity-settled transactionsThe cost of equity-settled transactions with employees is measured at the fair value of their equity instruments granted at grant date.

Since the outcome of the claims will be determined in courts, theresults could differ from these estimates.NOTE 4:-DISCLOSURE OF NEW STANDARDS IN THE PERIOD PRIOR TO THEIR ADOPTIONIFRS 16, "Leases": In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16, "Leases" ("the new Standard"). According to the new Standard, a lease is a contract, or part ofa contract, that conveys the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.The effects of the adoption of the new Standard are as follows:·According to the new Standard, lessees are required to recognize all leases in the statement of financial position (excludingcertain exceptions, see below). Lessees will recognize a liability for lease payments with a corresponding right-of-use asset,similar to the accounting treatment for finance leases under the existing standard, IAS 17, "Leases". Lessees will also recognizeinterest expense and depreciation expense separately.·Variable lease payments that are not dependent on changes in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") or interest rates, but are based onperformance or use are recognized as an expense by the lessees as incurred and recognized as income by the lessors as earned.·In the event of change in variable lease payments that are CPI-linked, lessees are required to remeasure the lease liability andrecord the effect of the remeasurement as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.·The accounting treatment by lessors remains substantially unchanged from the existing standard, namely classification of a leaseas a finance lease or an operating lease.F-21 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 4:-DISCLOSURE OF NEW STANDARDS IN THE PERIOD PRIOR TO THEIR ADOPTION (Cont.)·The new Standard includes two exceptions which allow lessees to account for leases based on the existing accounting treatmentfor operating leases - leases for which the underlying asset is of low financial value and short-term leases (up to one year).The new Standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. The new Standard permits lessees to use one of the following approaches:1.Full retrospective approach - according to this approach, a right-of-use asset and the corresponding liability will be presented in thestatement of financial position as if they had always been measured according to the provisions of the new Standard. Accordingly, theeffect of the adoption of the new Standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented will be recorded in equity. Also, theCompany will restate the comparative data in its financial statements. Under this approach, the balance of the liability as of the date ofinitial application of the new Standard will be calculated using the interest rate implicit in the lease, unless this rate cannot be easilydetermined in which case the lessee's incremental borrowing rate of interest on the commencement date of the lease will be used.2.Modified retrospective approach - this approach does not require restatement of comparative data. The balance of the liability as of thedate of initial application of the new Standard will be calculated using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate of interest on the date ofinitial application of the new Standard. As for the measurement of the right-of-use asset, the Company may choose, on a lease-by-leasebasis, to apply one of the two following alternatives:·Recognize an asset in an amount equal to the lease liability, with certain adjustments. ·Recognize an asset as if the new Standard had always been applied.Any difference arising on the date of first-time recorded in equity.The Company believes that it will apply the modified retrospective approach upon the initial adoption of the new Standard bymeasuring the right-of-use asset at an amount equal to the lease liability, as measured on the transition date. The Company has a substantial number of lease contracts, mainly leases of Vehicles and laboratory, office and clean room spaces (seealso Note 15g). In assessing the impact of the new Standard on the financial statements, the Company is evaluating the followingmatters:·Options to extend the lease- according to the new Standard, the non-cancellable period of a lease includes periods that are covered byoptions to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the option. The Company is reviewing whether such optionsexist in its lease agreements and whether it is reasonably certain that it will exercise the options. As part of its assessment, the Companyis evaluating all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise the option, including significantleasehold improvements that have been or are expected to be undertaken, the importance of the underlying asset to the Company'soperations and past experience in connection with the exercise of such options.F-22 MEDIWOUND LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSU.S. dollars in thousands (except of share and per share data) NOTE 4:-DISCLOSURE OF NEW STANDARDS IN THE PERIOD PRIOR TO THEIR ADOPTION (Cont.)·Separation of lease components - according to the new Standard, all lease components within a contract should be accounted forseparately from non-lease components. A lessee is allowed a practical expedient according to which it can elect, by class of underlyingasset, not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead account for them as a single lease component. TheCompany is reviewing whether such non-lease components, such as management and maintenance services, exist in its current leasecontracts and whether the above practical expedient should be applied to each class of underlying asset.·Incremental interest rate - the Company estimates the incremental interest rate to be used for measuring the lease liability and right-of-use asset on the date of initial adoption of the new Standard, based on the lease term and nature of the leased asset.The Company is also evaluating the need for making adjustments to its information systems, internal control, policies and proceduresthat will be necessary in order to apply the provisions of the new Standard. The Company estimates that the effect of the initial adoption of the new Standard as of January 1, 2019, is expected to result in anincrease in the Company's total assets and liabilities of approximately $ 2,500 and no change in its equity.Moreover, the effect of the initial adoption of the new Standard in 2019 is expected to result in a decrease in the Company's leaseexpenses of approximately $ 590 and an increase in the Company's depreciation and finance expenses of approximately $ 530 and$ 150, respectively. The total effect of the initial adoption of the new Standard in 2019 is expected to result in a decrease ofapproximately $ 60 in operating expenses and a increase of approximately $ 90 in net loss.In addition, as a result of the adoption of the new Standard, in 2019, the Company's cash flows from operating activities are expected todecrease by approximately $ 590 and its cash flows from financing activities are expected to increase by approximately $ 590.

PART I – THE SCHEDULE SECTION B – SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES/COSTS B.1. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES The Pandemic and All Hazards Preparedness Act (PAHPA) of 2006 established the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA)and was reauthorized under the PAHPA of 2013 to support development and acquisition of medical countermeasure (MCMs) to prevent or treat the medicalconsequences of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats, pandemic influenza (PI), and emerging infectious diseases (EID). TheseMCMs include vaccines, therapeutics, diagnostics, and medical devices. Additionally, BARDA is entrusted to foster innovation of technologies that enablebetter manufacturing, testing, and utilization of these medical countermeasures. This contract is for a potential 8-year product development plan to achieve the licensing of NexoBrid as a MCM for Sulfur Mustard (SM) injury. The existingBARDA MCM development program for NexoBrid for thermal burns has generated significant nonclinical and human clinical safety data. These data, as wellas the manufacturing information for a currently approved human therapeutic commercial indication can be leveraged to obtain approval of the MCMindication for NexoBrid under the FDA Animal Rule. MediWound considers NexoBrid as a proposed removal agent for tissue damaged by sulfur mustard which addresses unmet needs by being as effective assurgery, yet selective, non-invasive, and not pre-treatment diagnosis dependent. The use of NexoBrid resolves the first stage of wound bed preparation in thecomprehensive wound care process. Additionally, NexoBrid facilitates the second stage of non-surgical or surgical wound closure by enabling earlier, directvisual assessment of the wound bed and by reducing surgical needs (e.g., extent of surgical excisional debridement) which is an integral, substantial,demanding part of the surgical wound closure process. Work performed during the base period and during each option period constitutes an independent, non-severable discrete work segment that cannot besubdivided for separate performance and is necessary to support R&D tasks related to the development of the product/service. Each work segment constitutesan entire job (discrete requirement) which shall contain multiple R&D activities that when reviewed in total shall constitute a non-severable requirement.Each non-severable work segment will be fully funded from an appropriation source that is current at the time the work under such segment will begin. The Government has determined a Bona Fide Need for each non-severable discrete work segment which will conclude upon the completion of a defined taskor defined tasks that provide(s) independent merit and value to the Government. The Contractor’s success in completing the required tasks under the worksegments must be demonstrated through the Deliverables and Milestones specified under Article F of this contract. As set forth in the Contract WBSMilestones/Deliverables and Technical Deliverables chart under Article F of this contract, the GO/NO GO Contract Milestones and Decision Gates willconstitute the basis for the Government’s decision, at its sole discretion, to exercise any follow-on option period(s). The base and option period segments under Contract Line Item (CLIN) 0001 are event driven work segments rather than time driven CLINs. The funds foreach independent, non-severable discrete work segment (requirement), regardless of duration, shall only be used for the scope of work covered in eachdiscrete work segment (i.e., the base period work segment and each option work segment). The periods of performance listed under each of the CLINs underArticle B.2 and Article B.3 below are estimated time periods. Those individual time periods may be extended to complete the tasks required under each worksegment. It is possible that more than one option period (requirement), may be awarded at one time and that individual CLINs may overlap and/or proceedconcurrently. 4Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd.

The Contractor shall revise their protocols to address BARDA’s concerns and recommendations prior to FDA submission. The Contractor mustprovide BARDA with a copy of FDA submissions, within the time frame set forth by Section F.2 of this contract. Execution of clinical and non-clinical studies requires written authorization from the Government. The Government will provide written authorization to theContractor upon either 1) receiving documentation in which all COR comments have been satisfactorily addressed; or 2) receiving documentation that theFDA has reviewed and commented on the protocol. The Government shall have unlimited rights to all protocols, data resulting from execution of these protocols, and final reports funded by BARDA under thiscontract, as set forth in the FAR clauses referenced in PART II of this contract. The Government reserves the right to request that the Contractor provide anycontract deliverable in a non-proprietary form to ensure the Government has the ability to review and distribute the deliverables as the Government deemsnecessary. Important information regarding performing human subject research is available at http://www3.niaid.nih.gov/healthscience/clinicalstudies/. Any updates to technical reports are to be addressed in the Monthly and Annual Progress Reports. The Contractor shall advise the Contracting Officer’sRepresentative or designee in writing and via electronic communication in a timely manner of any issues potentially affecting contract performance. 1.Non-Clinical Terms of Award These Non-Clinical Terms of Award detail an agreement between the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) andthe Contractor; they apply to all grants and contracts that involve non-clinical research. a.Safety and Monitoring Issues i.PHS Policy on Humane Care and use of Laboratory Animals Within 30 days of award and then with the annual progress report, the Contractor must submit to BARDA a copy of the currentInstitutional Animal Care and Use Committees (IACUC) documentation of continuing review and approval and the Office ofLaboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW) federal wide assurance number for the institution or site. 39Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd.

They must also provide BARDA initial and annual documentation of continuing review and approval and federal wideassurance number. The Contractor must ensure that the application, as well as all protocols, is reviewed by the performing institution’s IACUC. To help ensure the safety of animals used in BARDA-funded studies, the Contractor must provide BARDA copies of documentsrelated to all major changes in the status of ongoing protocols, including the following: ●All amendments or changes to the protocol, identified by protocol version number, date, or both and date it is valid. ●All material changes in IACUC policies and procedures, identified by version number, date, and all required signatories(if applicable). ●Termination or temporary suspension of the study(ies) for regulatory issues. ●Termination or temporary suspension of the protocol. ●Any change that is made in the specific IACUC approval for the indicated study(ies). ●Any other problems or issues that could affect the scientific integrity of the study(ies), i.e., fraud, misrepresentation,misappropriation of funds, etc. Contractor must notify BARDA of any of the above changes within five (5) working days from the time the Contractor becomes awareof such changes by email or fax, followed by a letter signed by the institutional business official, detailing notification of the changeof status to the local IACUC and a copy of any responses from the IACUC. If a non-clinical protocol has been reviewed by an institutional biosafety committee (IBC) or the NIH Recombinant DNA AdvisoryCommittee (RAC), the Contractor must provide information about the initial and ongoing review and approval, if any. See the NIHGuidelines for Research Involving Recombinant DNA Molecules. ii.Non-Clinical Data and Safety Monitoring Requirements BARDA strongly recommends continued safety monitoring for all non-clinical studies of investigational drugs, devices, or biologics.FDA expects non- clinical studies to include safety in addition to efficacy. The Contractor should consider evaluation of clinicalrelevant safety markers in the pivotal and non- pivotal, non-clinical studies. In preparation for clinical trials of licensed or not yetlicensed products, it is imperative that BARDA- sponsored studies of any type measure the risk and safety parameters that are elicitedand provide a safety profile from the studies for future human risk assessment. 40Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd. A risk is minimal where the probability and magnitude of harm or discomfort anticipated in the proposed research are not greater thanthose ordinarily encountered in daily life or during the performance of routine physical or psychological examinations or tests. Forexample, the risk of drawing a small amount of blood from a healthy subject for research purposes is no greater than the risk of doingso as part of a routine physical examination (45 CFR 46.102(i)). The COR will work with the Contractor on decisions regarding the type and extent of safety data accrual to be employed before thestart of efficacy or safety studies. The Contractor shall inform the CO and COR of any upcoming site visits and/or audits of CRO facilities funded under this effort.BARDA reserves the right to accompany the Contractor on site visits and/or audits of CRO’s as BARDA deems necessary, providedreasonable prior notice is given to the Contractor. b.BARDA Review Process before Non-Clinical study Execution Begins BARDA is under the same policy-driven assurances as NIH in that it has a responsibility to ensure that mechanisms and procedures are in placeto protect the safety and welfare of animals used in BARDA-funded non-clinical trials.

BARDA shall have unlimited rights to all protocols, data generated from the execution of these protocols, and final reports, funded by BARDA under thiscontract, as defined in Rights in Data Clause in FAR 52.227-14. BARDA reserves the right to request that the Contractor provide any contract deliverablethat is produced in the performance of this contract without any restrictive legends to ensure BARDA has the ability to review and distribute thedeliverables, as BARDA deems necessary. a.Safety and Monitoring Issues i.Institutional Review Board or Independent Ethics Committee Approval Within 30 days of award and then with the annual progress report, the Contractor must submit to the COR a copy of the current IRB-orIEC-approved informed consent document, documentation of continuing review and approval and the OHRP federal wide assurancenumber for the institution or site. If other institutions are involved in the research (e.g., a multicenter clinical trial or study), each institution’s IRB or IEC must review andapprove the protocol. They must also provide BARDA initial and annual documentation of continuing review and approval, including thecurrent approved informed consent document and federal wide number. The Contractor must ensure that the application as well as all protocols is reviewed by their IRB or IEC. 42Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd. To help ensure the safety of participants enrolled in BARDA-funded studies, the Contractor must provide the COR copies of documentsrelated to all major changes in the status of ongoing protocols, including the following: ●All amendments or changes to the protocol, identified by protocol version number, date, or both and dates it is valid. ●All changes in informed consent documents, identified by version number, dates, or both and dates it is valid. ●Termination or temporary suspension of patient accrual. ●Termination or temporary suspension of the protocol. ●Any change in IRB approval. ●Any other problems or issues that could affect the participants in the studies. The Contractor must notify the COR and CO of any of the above changes within five (5) working days by email or fax, followed by a lettersigned by the institutional business official, detailing notification of the change of status to the local IRB and a copy of any responses fromthe IRB or IEC. If a clinical protocol has been reviewed by an institutional biosafety committee (IBC) or the NIH Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee(RAC), the Contractor must provide information about the initial and ongoing review and approval, if any. See the NIH Guidelines forResearch Involving Recombinant DNA Molecules. ii.Data and Safety Monitoring Requirements BARDA strongly recommends independent safety monitoring for clinical trials of investigational drugs, devices, or biologics; clinical trialof licensed products; and clinical research of any type involving more than minimal risk to volunteers. Independent monitoring can take avariety of forms. Phase III clinical trials must be reviewed by an independent data and safety monitoring board (DSMB); other trials mayrequire DSMB oversight as well. The Contractor shall inform BARDA of any upcoming site visits and/or audits of CRO facilities fundedunder this effort. BARDA reserves the right to accompany the Contractor on site visits and/or audits of CROs as BARDA deems necessary. A risk is minimal where the probability and magnitude of harm or discomfort anticipated in the proposed research and not greater thanthose ordinarily encountered in daily life or during the performance of routine physical or psychological examinations or tests. Forexamples, the risk of drawing a small amount of blood from a healthy individual for research purposes is no greater than the risk of doing soas part of a routine physical examination (45 CFR 46.102I). Final decisions regarding the type of monitoring to be used must be made jointly by BARDA and the Contractor before enrollment starts.Discussions with the responsible BARDA Project Officer regarding appropriate safety monitoring and approval of the final monitoring planby BARDA must occur before patient enrollment begins and may include discussions about the appointment of one of the following. 43Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd. ▪Independent Safety Monitor – a physician or other appropriate expert who is independent of the study and available in real timeto review and recommend appropriate action regarding adverse events and other safety issues. ▪Independent Monitoring Committee (IMC) or Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) – a small group of independentinvestigators and biostatisticians who review data from a particular study. ▪Data and Safety Monitoring Board – an independent committee charged with reviewing safety and trial progress and providingadvice with respect to study continuation, modification, and termination. The Contractor may be required to use an establishedBARDA DSMB or to organize an independent DSMB. All phase III clinical trials must be reviewed by a DSMB; other trials mayrequire DSMB oversight as well. Please refer to: NIAID Principles for Use of a Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) ForOversight of Clinical Trials Policy When a monitor or monitoring board is organized, a description of it, its charter or operating procedures (including a proposed meetingschedule and plan for review of adverse events), and roster and curriculum vitae from all members must be submitted to and approved bythe COR before enrollment starts. The Contractor will also ensure that the monitors and board members report any conflicts of interest andthe Contractor will maintain a record of this. The Contractor will share conflict of interest reports with the CO and COR. Additionally, the Contractor must submit written summaries of all reviews conducted by the monitoring group to the BARDA within thirty(30) days of reviews or meetings. iii.BARDA Protocol Review Process Before Patient Enrollment Begins The COR has a responsibility to ensure that mechanisms andprocedures are in place to protect the safety of participants in BARDA-supported clinical trials. Therefore, before patient accrual orparticipant enrollment, the Contractor must ensure the following (as applicable) are in place at each participating institution, prior topatient accrual or enrollment: ●IRB- or IEC-approved clinical research protocol identified by version number, date, or both, including details of study design,proposed interventions, patient eligibility, and exclusion criteria.●Documentation of IRB or IEC approval, including OHRP federal wide number, IRB or IEC registration number, and IRB and IECname.●IRB- or IEC- approved informed consent document, identified by version number, date, or both and dates it is valid.●Plans for the management of side effects.●Procedures for assessing and reporting adverse events.●Plans for data and safety monitoring (see above) and monitoring of the clinical study site, pharmacy, and laboratory.●Documentation that the Contractor and all study staff responsible for the design or conduct of the research have received trainingin the protection of human subjects. Documentation to demonstrate that each of the above items are in place shall be submitted to the COR) for evaluation and comment inconjunction with the protocol.

H.6. ANIMAL WELFARE All research involving live, vertebrate animals shall be conducted in accordance with the Public Health Service Policy on Humane Care and Use ofLaboratory Animals. This policy may be accessed at: http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/olaw/references/phspol.htm H.7. INFORMATION ON COMPLIANCE WITH ANIMAL CARE REQUIREMENTS Registration with the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA) is required to use regulated species of animals for biomedical purposes. USDA is responsible for theenforcement of the Animal Welfare Act (7 U.S.C. 2131 et. seq.), http://www.nal.usda.gov/awic/legislat/awa.htm. The Public Health Service (PHS) Policy is administered by the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW) http://grants2.nih.gov/grants/olaw/olaw.htm. Anessential requirement of the PHS Policy http://grants2.nih.gov/grants/olaw/references/phspol.htm is that every institution using live vertebrate animals mustobtain an approved assurance from OLAW before they can receive funding from any component of the U. S. Public Health Service. The PHS Policy requires that Assured institutions base their programs of animal care and use on the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animalshttp://www.nap.edu/readingroom/books/labrats/ and that they comply with the regulations (9 CFR, SubchapterA)http://www.nal.usda.gov/awic/legislat/usdaleg1.htm issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) under the Animal Welfare Act. The Guide maydiffer from USDA regulations in some respects. Compliance with the USDA regulations is an absolute requirement of this Policy. The Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care International (AAALAC) http://www.aaalac.org is a professional organizationthat inspects and evaluates programs of animal care for institutions at their request. Those that meet the high standards are given the accredited status. As ofthe 2002 revision of the PHS Policy, the only accrediting body recognized by PHS is the AAALAC. While AAALAC Accreditation is not required to conductbiomedical research, it is highly desirable. AAALAC uses the Guide as their primary evaluation tool. They also use the Guide for the Care and Use ofAgricultural Animals in Agricultural Research and Teaching. It is published by the Federated of Animal Science Societies http://www.fass.org. H.8. REQUIREMENTS FOR ADEQUATE ASSURANCE OF PROTECTION OF VERTEBRATE ANIMAL SUBJECTS The PHS Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals requires that applicant organizations proposing to use vertebrate animals file a writtenAnimal Welfare Assurance with the Office for Laboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW), establishing appropriate policies and procedures to ensure the humanecare and use of live vertebrate animals involved in research activities supported by the PHS. The PHS Policy stipulates that an applicant organization,whether domestic or foreign, bears responsibility for the humane care and use of animals in PHS- supported research activities. Also, the PHS policy defines“animal” as “any live, vertebrate animal used, or intended for use, in research, research training, experimentation, biological testing or for related purposes.”This Policy implements and supplements the U.S. Government Principles for the Utilization and Care of Vertebrate Animals Used in Testing, Research, andTraining, and requires that institutions use the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals as a basis for developing and implementing an institutionalanimal care and use program. This Policy does not affect applicable State or local laws or regulations that impose more stringent standards for the care anduse of laboratory animals. All institutions are required to comply, as applicable, with the Animal Welfare Act as amended (7 USC 2131 et. seq.) and otherFederal statutes and regulations relating to animals. These documents are available from the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare, National Institutes ofHealth, Bethesda, MD 20892, (301) 496-7163.

No PHS supported work for research involving vertebrate animals will be conducted by an organization, unless that organization is operating in accordancewith an approved Animal Welfare Assurance and provides verification that the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) has reviewed andapproved the proposed activity in accordance with the PHS policy. Applications may be referred by the PHS back to the institution for further review in thecase of apparent or potential violations of the PHS Policy. No award to an individual will be made unless that individual is affiliated with an assuredorganization that accepts responsibility for compliance with the PHS Policy. Foreign applicant organizations applying for PHS awards for activitiesinvolving vertebrate animals are required to comply with PHS Policy or provide evidence that acceptable standards for the humane care and use of animalswill be met. Foreign applicant organizations are not required to submit IACUC approval, but should provide information that is satisfactory to theGovernment to provide assurances for the humane care of such animals. H.9. APPROVAL OF REQUIRED ASSURANCE BY OLAW Under governing regulations, federal funds which are administered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Biomedical AdvancedResearch and Development Authority (BARDA) shall not be expended by the Contractor for research involving live vertebrate animals, nor shall livevertebrate animals be involved in research activities by the Contractor under this award unless a satisfactory assurance of compliance with 7 U.S.C. 2316 and9 CFR Sections 2.25-2.28 is submitted within 30 days of the date of this award and approved by the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW). Eachperformance site (if any) must also assure compliance with 7 U.S.C. 2316 and 9 CFR Sections 2.25-2.28 with the following restriction: Only activities whichdo not directly involve live vertebrate animals (i.e. are clearly severable and independent from those activities that do involve live vertebrate animals) maybe conducted by the Contractor or individual performance sites pending OLAW approval of their respective assurance of compliance with 7 U.S.C. 2316 and9 CFR Sections 2.25-2.28.

H.15. INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING INVESTIGATOR FINANCIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 45 CFR Part 94, Responsible Prospective Contractors, which promotes objectivity in research byestablishing standards to ensure that Investigators (defined as the project director or principal Investigator and any other person, regardless of title orposition, who is responsible for the design, conduct, or reporting of research funded under BARDA contracts, or proposed for such funding, which mayinclude, for example, collaborators or consultants) will not be biased by any Investigator financial conflicts of interest. If the failure of an Investigator to comply with an Institution’s financial conflicts of interest policy or a financial conflict of interest management plan appearsto have biased the design, conduct, or reporting of the BARDA-funded research, the Contractor must promptly notify the Contracting Officer of the correctiveaction taken or to be taken. The Contracting Officer will consider the situation and, as necessary, take appropriate action or refer the matter to the Contractorfor further action, which may include directions to the Contractor on how to maintain appropriate objectivity in the BARDA-funded research project. 50Confidential Portions of this Exhibit marked as [***] have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and have been filed separately withthe Securities and Exchange Commission.Confidential Treatment Requested by Mediwound Ltd. The Contracting Officer and/or HHS may inquire at any time before, during, or after award into any Investigator disclosure of financial interests, and theContractor’s review of, and response to, such disclosure, regardless of whether the disclosure resulted in the Contractor’s determination of a financial conflictof interests. The Contracting Officer may require submission of the records or review them on site. On the basis of this review of records or other informationthat may be available, the Contracting Officer may decide that a particular financial conflict of interest will bias the objectivity of the BARDA-fundedresearch to such an extent that further corrective action is needed or that the Institution has not managed the financial conflict of interest in accordance with45 CFR Part 94. The issuance of a Stop Work Order by the Contracting Officer may be necessary until the matter is resolved. If the Contracting Officer determines that BARDA-funded clinical research, whose purpose is to evaluate the safety or effectiveness of a drug, medical device,or treatment, has been designed, conducted, or reported by an Investigator with a financial conflict of interest that was not disclosed managed or reported theContractor shall require the Investigator involved to disclose the financial conflict of interest in each public presentation of the results of the research and torequest an addendum to previously published presentations. The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 45 CFR Part 94, Responsible Prospective Contractors, which promotes objectivity in research by establishing standards to ensure that investigators (defined as the principal investigator and any otherperson who is responsible for the design, conduct, or reporting of research funded under BARDA contracts) will not be biased by any conflicting financialinterest. 45 CFR Part 94 is available at the following Web site: http://ecfr.gpoaccess.gov/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&sid=cc7504e541bc62939c52389e9afc27d5&rgn=div5&view=text&node=45:1.0.1.1.51&idno=45 As required by 45 CFR Part 94, the Contractor shall, at a minimum: 52.Maintain a written, enforceable policy on conflict of interest that complies with 45 CFR Part 94 and inform each investigator of the policy, theinvestigator’s reporting responsibilities, and the applicable regulations. The Contractor must take reasonable steps to ensure that investigatorsworking as collaborators or subcontractors comply with the regulations. 52.Designate an official(s) to solicit and review financial disclosure statements from each investigator participating in BARDA-funded research. Basedon established guidelines consistent with the regulations, the designated official(s) must determine whether a conflict of interest exists, and if so,determine what actions should be taken to manage, reduce, or eliminate such conflict.

("MediWound") and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. ("Teva") are parties to that certain Settlement Agreement and Mutual GeneralRelease dated as of the date hereof (the "Settlement Agreement"), relating to certain collaborations and transactions entered into during the years 2007through 2013, which have terminated effective as of December 31, 2012 and September 2, 2013, as applicable, and to which MediWound was a party(whether together with Teva or alone in concert with others).One of the aforesaid collaborations was associated with, inter alia, a Buyout Agreement dated December 22, 2010, by and among MediWound, PolyHealLtd. (“PolyHeal”), the Equity Holders (as defined therein) and the Shareholders Representative Committee referred to therein (the "Buyout Agreement").Teva was not a party to such Buyout Agreement.MediWound informed Teva that claims were made by certain Equity Holders against MediWound concerning the achievement of a PH2 Milestone underthe Buyout Agreement and the non-payment by MediWound to the Equity Holders of an amount of US$ 6,750,000 ("PH2 Milestone Payment"), and, to itsdefense, MediWound relied, inter-alia, on the back-to-back structure of such transactions and suggested a direct rivalry under which the plaintiffs may filetheir claims directly against Teva.As it is the Parties’ intention to settle all Asserted Claims (as such term is defined in the Settlement Agreement), then, in order to induce Teva to enterinto the Settlement Agreement:1. MediWound hereby agrees, subject to the terms and conditions of this letter agreement, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Teva and itsdirectors, officers, agents, and employees (Teva and each such person being referred to as an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any amount actuallypaid by such Indemnified Party to any Equity Holder (as defined in the Buyout Agreement) that is not a Releasee of Teva (any such Equity Holder that is nota Releasee of Teva - a “Third Party”) arising out of any and all suits, investigations, claims, or demands made by such Third Party and relating to the (i)achievement of the PH2 Milestone and (ii) the non-payment to such Third Party of all or any of its portion of the PH2 Milestone Payment under the BuyoutAgreement (a "Collaboration Agreement Claim"); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary: (a) any indemnity that may becomepayable by MediWound in accordance with this letter agreement shall be paid in cash, (b) subject only to Section 5(b) of this letter agreement, the maximumaggregate liability of MediWound under this letter shall not exceed an amount equal to $10,000,000 (the “Cap Amount”), (c) an Indemnified Person shallonly be entitled to indemnification under this letter for a Third Party's Collaboration Agreement Claim with respect to which a notice has been received byMediWound prior to December 31, 2023 (in which case the indemnity hereunder shall survive with respect to such Third Party's Collaboration AgreementClaim until it has been finally resolved), and (d) notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the obligations of MediWound hereunder shall not apply to anyspecial, indirect or consequential damages incurred by any Indemnified Persons themselves but will apply to any special indirect or consequential damageswhich may become payable by the Indemnified Persons to any Third Party in connection with any Collaboration Agreement Claim. The indemnity, defenseand hold-harmless obligation set forth in this letter shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Indemnified Persons with respect to or inconnection with any Third Party's Collaboration Agreement Claim. In no event shall MediWound be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless anyIndemnified Person, from or against any claims, demands, losses, costs or expenses, other than as specifically set forth above. 2. Teva shall give MediWound prompt written notice within 10 days of becoming aware of any Third Party's Collaboration Agreement Claimasserted or threatened against an Indemnified Person that could give rise to a right of indemnification under this letter and; provided, however, that the failureto give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent that MediWound shall have been prejudiced as a resultof such failure.3. Upon receipt such notice MediWound will assume sole control and defense of such Third Party’s Collaboration Agreement Claim, subject tothe right of Teva, as set forth in Section 7 below, to waive its right to indemnity, defense and hold-harmless. Each Indemnified Person shall cooperate withMediWound's investigation and defense of such Third Party’s Collaboration Agreement Claim, as may reasonably be requested by MediWound.4. So long as the aggregate potential liability of MediWound under this letter has not exceeded the Cap Amount, MediWound shall assume thedefense of any Third Party’s Collaboration Agreement Claim by giving written notice to Teva and the Indemnified Person within 30 days after MediWound'sreceipt of Teva's notice thereof. Teva on behalf of the Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of the Third Party'sclaim or demand and to employ counsel of their choice for such purpose at the Indemnified Persons' sole cost and expense.5. In the event MediWound has not assumed the defense of any Third Party’s Collaboration Agreement Claim in accordance with the previousparagraph and it is determined by a final judgment of a competent court that MediWound has breached its obligations under this Settlement Agreement toassume the defense of such Third Party’s Collaboration Agreement Claim, then (a) such breach shall not release MediWound from its indemnificationobligation hereunder and, accordingly, in such event at the request of Teva, MediWound shall (subject to the Cap Amount and other limitations set forthabove) (x) indemnify the Indemnified Persons for any amount actually paid by such Indemnified Persons to such Third Party arising out of such Third Party’sCollaboration Agreement Claim, or (y) pay directly to such Third Party any reasonable settlement amount as requested by the Indemnified Person insettlement of the relevant Third Party's Collaboration Agreement Claim (provided such settlement (i) includes a release from all liabilities in respect of suchclaim and (ii) does not involve an obligation other than the payment of money, that would bind or impair MediWound), and (b) Teva shall be entitled to fullreimbursement of its reasonable legal fees and expenses (notwithstanding the Cap Amount) in defending or settling such Third Party’s CollaborationAgreement Claim, without derogating from any remedy which may be determined by the competent court with respect to MediWound's breach of itsobligations hereunder.6. MediWound shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such thirdparty claim, on such terms as MediWound, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate, provided that MediWound shall not settle any such claim withoutthe prior written consent of Teva (which consent shall be binding upon all Indemnified Persons and shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if suchsettlement (i) exceeds the Cap Amount less any amounts previously paid by Mediwound under this letter agreement, (ii) does not include a release by theapplicable Third Party of the Indemnified Persons from all liabilities in respect of such claim or (iii) if such settlement would involve an obligation other thanthe payment of money, that would bind or impair any such Indemnified Person.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in the reasonable judgment of Teva, such suit or claim involves an issue or matter which could have amaterial adverse effect on the business, operations or assets of any such Indemnified Person, then Teva may waive (which waiver shall apply to, and bebinding upon Teva and all other Indemnified Persons) the rights to indemnity, defense and hold-harmless under this Agreement and shall have the rights toconduct the defense or settlement thereof on behalf of the Indemnified Persons (without derogating from MediWound’s rights to the extent it is a party to anysuch proceeding), and in such a case MediWound shall have no obligations whatsoever under this letter agreement neither to Teva nor any other IndemnifiedPerson.The provisions of Sections 8 and 11 of the Settlement Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to this letter agreement.This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel, without reference to principles ofconflicts of law that may result in the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. Any claim, controversy or dispute arising from this letter shall bereferred to and resolved solely in the competent courts located in Tel-Aviv, Jaffa, Israel.Breach of this letter agreement by Teva or Mediwound shall deemed a breach of the Settlement Agreement by such party.
